Getting A Drink
In Louisville

Apropos of the charges
the women of. Louisville
have been making that they
can't get the police there to
prevent sale of whisky,
here's a true story:
A prominent Richmond
business man, in the Falls
City. a day or SO ago, be-
came tired and dry.
He happened to meet a
cop he used to know in a
small town years ago. They
had been good friends.
Jack" the Richmond man
accosted the cop.y Isn't
there any place a tired man
can get drink of whisky il
this town."
why. you can get one
anywhere you want to" the
policeman replied. TRY that
saloon over there" and he
pointed to a corner about
half a block away.
The Richmond man was
astonished at such a thing in
these days of Volsteadism.
'How in the world does
that happen he queried of
his officer friend.
"Oh, we make more off of
them than we do from our
| salaries" the cop answered,
| with shrug.
The Richmond. man took
| the officers tip and went in
| to the saloon.
"A drink of red-eye," he
told the barkeeper.
Fifty cents the barkeep
| replied. and reaching under
the counter pulled out a BOT
tie and poured out sizable
drink Of what the RichnCr
man says was very fair
whisky for these VOlstead-
ian days.
He paid for the refresh
ment and walked out with
out a question or quibble.

Pitkin Miner. ~ ,s--,
Sparks from the unauthorized
burning of some brush piles on the
A. L. Pearson timber sale in Powder
house Gulch might have ceaused a
serious fire in that and adjoining tim
ber last Saturday. The fire had been
left unextinguished by a Mexican
timber worker, Perfecto Martinez.
Later he was located in Pitkin by A.
L. Pearson, Forest Ranger Trickel
and Forest Supervisor Steuart and
taken promptly before R. T. Hefftner,
Justice of the Peace, who levied a
fine of s25 and costs. Martinez plead
guilty to the charge of having set
fire where liable to spread to timber
on Government or State land, and it
being his first offense, the Justice in
a spirit of clemency remitted por-
tion of the fine. af -fs r ll
I The leaving of fires, particularly
camp fires, unattended or unextin-
guished is a serious offense punish
able by fine or Jail sentence. There
is too much at stake to permit of
carelessness with fire in the noun
tains. Pitkin once the center of
thriving mining community nova
days is dependent solely upon the
timber business for existence. 1t is
essential for the good of the town
that the timbered areas tributary to

tinuous supply of timber can be in

OUR SCHOOLS.

1t is a pleasure to announce this
week that the Board of Education has
ordered the twelfth grade added to
our school curriculum.
This means that your children who
want high school education do not
have to go away from home at heavy
expense, to get it, and it also means
that your children whom you are not
able to send away to high school, can
get their high school education right
at home, and as was stated last week,
we shall be pleased to have everybody
come to school. Now, go slow! Don't
get the notion that we are inviting
you to a picnic. School means busi .
ness. If you can't come but one hour
a day, choose the subject you wan.
and find out the hour it !, is to be
taught, then make it your business 70
be there promptly at that time five
days in the week. Either do this or
don't come at all. We positively do
not want any pupils, young or old, to
straggle in two or thyee days in the
week This way of coming to school
will only annoy the rest of us and do
you very little good.
Start fair now and here we go for
the best school Crested Butte ever
he'd. THOMAS C. CLAYTON.

have prominent part in making the,
school e. success or failure?
The poorest teacher can have mod
crate success in teaching your child
If he has your support and co-opera-
tion. The best teacher must make
failure without it.
First, then, give your teacher your
moral support. Let your tongue
cleave to the roof of your mouth
rather than let your child hear you
say aught against his teacher. If
you can say nothing good say moth
ing. A word against the teacher
from you will cause the child to lose
respect for the teacher. Whenever
the child loses respect for the teach
er he might as we'll be out of school
SO far as he is concerned and SO far
as the school is concerned, he will be
only trouble and an annoyance. 0s
Instead of finding fault because
of what you, hear is going on, visit
the school and see for yourself. Con-
suit with the teacher and find out
where you can help along. If you do
not altogether agree with his meth
DDS, remember he, has been trained
for his work and perhaps you haven't
been, and therefore you should allow
that he may be right. At any rate
he could not if he wished to do so,
adopt the methods of all the patrons
of the school. "a IN 81
Then give him your cooperation,
Let the child know that his parents
expect him to do what the teacher
asks of him. If work is assigned for
out of school study see to it that the
child does what is required. He is
your child and the work is for his
good. tH. r
See that the child is always there
and there on time. 1t will not hurt
your child any more to go to school
in storm than it will for him to
play all day in storm. Tardiness
makes the child careless, absence
casues him to lose interest. Lack of
interest in his work is the cause of
so many boys and girls being on the
streets or desiring to quit school and
go to work when they should be in
the school room. ie
Above all remember that your
child does not know what is best for
him now, but you are supposed to
know, and therefore he should do as
you say and not as he would like to
do. af
Iiventure to say that, if every
parent will give our teachers their
heartiest moral support and co-opera-
tion. this present year will prove
to be the best year thus far in the
history of the Crested Butte schools.
Let us give the teachers and pupils
chance.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE
PATRONS OF THE
PUBLIC SCHOOLS
BY j. l.. Read

By j. L. Read
The following written many years
ago, is appropo at this time. We
reproduce it in the hope that it may
do good: tt aH.
Another school year has opened.
Shall it not be remembered among
the best years in the history of the
school? The answer lies largely
with the parents.
Our School Board has been selected
by majority vote of the people.
Conscientiously it's members give
thought and time to their duties.
They receive no compensation for
their services and very small por-
tion of the credit really due them.
Yet their only desire, am sure, is
that your child may have the best
possible school advantages. y
Applications are received by the
Board from teachers desiring posi-
tions. After considering each appli-
cant's qualifications, as indicated by
their education and recommenda-
tions,. the teachers are engaged on
merit alone, to the exclusion of all
other influences.
They are all human. and will make
some mistakes. Yet you may be sure
that at heart there is only one de-
sire, viz: Your child's best interests.
Each one of our teachers is a pro-
Tossing Christian. and, while not ad-
vocating in the schoolroom any par
ticular creed or denomination, they
will seek to live before your child a
life that will recommend Christian
ity in its truest sense. Next to the
parent, no one will have a child's in
terest so much at heart. In after
years none will rejoice more in his
success or feel more keenly his fail
ureS So much for the teachers.
Now will you allow d word from
one who speaks whereof he knows re-
garding your part in the success of
the school?l afi-
