At twenty, it is his love of love.
at thirty. his love of adventure; at
forty, his love of comradeship; and at
fifty, his love of amusement-but each
time, man always mistakes it for
his love of a woman.
1t takes several trained nurses. a
lot of tutors, and a college full of
professors to equip the average gild-
ed youth-to marry a chorus girl.

and as if l were dropping out of the

that she will not. it will not be day

times and more. before that age, and
that If she does marry earlier she may
"xpect to be ready to change her hus-
band by that time, even If she does
not do so. She pointed out that the
fact that she may want to change and
cannot, or does not, is one of the great
tragedies of life. Goodness, 1t makes
me shudder to think of what l may
be unexpectedly committing by mar

4 Sarcastic CusS

Last July this writer put in four
weeks at Mancos publishing the Times
while Mr.. Freeman took his first yaca-
ton In fourteen years of penal servi-
tlde. SO Bro Bear mustered up cour-
age to try the experiment on his own
account He therefore wrote Us the
following sarcastic and eloquent letter:
Il noticed by last week ; issue Of the
Mancos Times-Tribune that you had
survived the excitement. dangers and
toll of conducting that famous sheet
for period of four weeks and had re
turned TO the quiet haunts of the home
stead
We give Freeman credit for setting
a new pace for newspaper men. 1t is
the first time, so far us / know, that a
country newspaper publisher ever took
a month $ vacation outside of Jail. And
the very fact that he lived to return to
the job again, that the shop didn I burn
or wasn't mobbed during his absence,
that the world kept revolving ON its
axis, the sun. moon and stars remained
in their respective places and the Boil
sheviks didn't capture the country. has
nerved some of the rest of US to try
the same stunt, only on Il smaller scale.

Local Census Figures

The census bureau announces the fol-
lowing figures on the town of Dolores
and the county of Montezuma:
Dolores, Colorado, 1,243. Increase,
Sol, or 1916 per cent.
Montezuma county, $3.50.
The high per cent. of increase for the
town of Dolores is most gratifying to
local pride.
In the report on Montezuma county
is the figures for Otero county. Colo.
as 22,623. And yet, when it comes to
to the question of what the difference
in population between this county and
Otero really should be, the advantage
is overwhelmingly in favor of Monte
yuma. This writer has lived in Otero
county and knows what he is talking
about when he says that in the matter
OF soil, climate, water and general de-
STABILITY as place to live Montezuma
county has Otero county beaten forty
ways from the ace.
Why, then, this difference in popula-
ton in favor of Otero county? Simply
the difference in transportation facili-
ties. Otero county has the Santa Fe
railroad, while Montezuma county has

EDITOR STAR: If you will kindly do.
nate little space will give your read
ers a bit of information about this
highly favored section Of the famous
Dove Creek country.
1t is mostly in Dolores county and
lies southwest of Dove Creek pos totfice
between Dove Greek and Monument
canons.
1t is the most extensive body of
rolling prairie land in the Dove Greek
section. Its soil is red and deep and
numerous wells prove the existence of
plenty of water in the underlying sand
stones. This is in addition to the nu-
merous springs along Sqaw and Monu-
ment creeks and overlooking water in
the latter.
Eighteen months ago there were not
to exceed half a dozen houses on the
whole tract Now | know of but one
residence. Some of them are indeed
humble. but they are home" A
large number OF the residents are ex-
service who are here to stay. Possibly
one or two are holding land solely for
speculative purposes, but this, of course.
is not for publication.
Generally speaking, our people are
progressive lot and of most desirable
class. This is proven by their recently
organizing to build a combination school
and community house. The necessary
money and labor have already been
pledged in sufficient amount to complete
structure 24x36 feet, and it is hoped
to have the building done enough to
warrant a Labor Day celebration.
The officers empowered to supervise
this work are Messrs. Tucker, who is a
recent settler, as president and Gerry
Thompson as treasurer and Mrs. Jordan.
sister of q. V. Bridwell and also a
newcomer, as secretary. If this com
mlttee doesn't accomplish something it
simply can't be did
In addition to this progressive move,
the community has resolved itself into
committee of the whole to build at
least one main highway leading into
the Montezuma valley and to the rail-
road at Dolores With this end in view
the sage has been gruDbed along the
section line east and west by the
Slaughter, Thompson, Smith, Jordan,
and Bridwell ranches and across the
upper end of Squaw creek to a point on
the divide between that and Dove
creek. The intention is to follow this
divide straight south by the Carter,
Miller, Pigg, Jones, Warren, Merchant
and Bussard ranches and cross Cross
canon on per cent. grade into the
Sylvan country and thence east to the
Wayman place. This will eliminate

And the people on the west side of
Monument creek, in the Cedar Point
and Holy City communities, are pre-
pairing to build a road across the Monu-
ment creek at the Kinney ranches to
connection with the main highway at
the Slaughter ranch.
When this is done and the road nut
in proper shape we expect to apply for
