Can Blue and COchetopa
Pass Roads Be Kept
Open This Winter?

Can we keep Blue Mesa road open
this winter? Few people who
are familiar with conditions have had
any doubt of recent years that both
Cochetopa pass and the Blue could be
kept in hsape for an all-winter route
between Eastern and Western Colora-
do, provided there were enough
people really desiring to travel by
auto in the winter. 1t is merely a
question whether the time has arriv-
ed when pressure of business demands
the spending of the necessary money.
Joe Hartman, well known auto man
of Montrose. has been agitating the
matter, and with business men of
Delta and Grand Junction have writ
ten letters to Commissioner Geo. Sui
livan concerning the roads. These
Western Slope business men want 1t
done, and Of course, Gunnison county
would be interested. but not to the
same extent financially, since altho
the road is mostly in this county, few
Of the citizens need to travel west
by car at this time. Nevertheless,
Doc Sullivan is inquiring into the mat
ter and keeping an "open mind"
With heavy trucks and tractors It
would undoubtedly be possible to keep
the roads broken, but would Il pay ?
Depends entirely on the amount Of
business wanting to use the road, and
how much other Western Slope coun-
ties, whose citizens are much more
directly interested than ours, would
wish TO assist. The Blue Mesa is the
key, for undoubtedly Cochetopa pass,
with its light snowfall, would prove
. smaller problem, and we under
stand that Poncha pass between Sa-
Ida and Saguache is usually kept
open any way.
II the attempt is made It will be
necessary to station quite force at
the Half Way House on Blue Mesa.
Snowdrifts are ten times as easy to
handle when taken the day they fall
than when allowed to solidify into
ice. Experience Of the Rio Grande in
keeping Kebler pass open to the Ruby
Anthracite mine demonstrated this.

SYMPTOMS AND TREAT
MENT OF SMALL POX

The very general discussion of small
pox. due to the approach of the epi-
demic Of virulent type, brings out
the following notes from the State
Board Of Health:
Under diagnosis" We will say
briefly: no other eruptive disease has
at onset a fever, or possibly malaise
only, which lasts for about three
days and then subsidies as eruption ap-
pears; no other eruptive disease has
popular eruption which comes first on
the uncovered skin. the face and the
hands, and Is always more abundant
there; no other disease has a papulo-
vascular eruption which develops in
its entirety within "a hours SO that all
adjacent LESSONS are at the same age
and state Of development and whose
essential qualities are a Arm papule.
And in addition, would advise that
where case Of over Is years Of age
is reported as chicken pox, that the
health officer assure himself that the
diagnosis Is correct-that It ID not q
case Of overlooked or mild small pox.
Compulsory vaccination may be inn
posed where small pox 10 prevalent
under m opinion Of the Attorney Gen.
eral.
When smallpox Is prevalent, local
boards Of health may make regulA-
tion requiring all school children to
be vaccinated against smallpox, or in
lieu thereof remain away from school
during the prevalence Of smallpox,
provided that history Of having had
smallpox or Q recent successful vac
cination against small pox will be
held a. sufficient to permit children
to enter school.
Then again. under Judge Morley's
decision in the Denver case where the
regulations are that the child had
been refused admission to school be-
cSuse It had refused to comply with
the ordinance forbidding any child to
attend school who had not been vac
cinsted within the seven years next
preceeding. The ordinance was up
held in a decision by the Judge.
There Is also another opinion by the
Attorney-Genera where the Board Of
Health has made certain regulations
regarding vaccination Of school child
ren, md It was the duty Of the school
board to enforce such regulations.
There are no eases Of smallpox in
|the county nav - far - known, the
single instance cf tie usual mild type

ever, there - . good deal II ehic3sn

FEW EYES REALLY NORMAL
Just as One Is Right or Left-Handed,
So 1t Is With the Organs
of Vision.

Very few people realize that they
are as much right-eyed or left-eyed
as they are right or left-handed.
Sit down in chair and fix your at
tentiOn on some subject on the other
side of the room. Quickly hold your
finger up right in front Of the object,
and instantly shut your eyes. Then
without moving your head or your
finger. open your eyes one at time.
If, when you open your right eye, you
find your finger directly in front of
the object, you are right-eyed. In
that case you will find your finger
very much to the right of the object
when you open your left eye.
If you are right-handed you will
most probably find that you are right
eyed.
This is due to the fact that of the
two halves of your brain one is slight
ly more developed than the other. And
the organs and limbs on that side of
your body which is controlled by the
more developed half are able to carry
out your wishes more easily and
quickly than those of the other side
