WALT MAson,s DAIRY COW

The dairy cows thing of charm;
she lifts the mortgage from the farm.
and makes the farmers life more
sweet, and sets him down on Easy
Street. Where'er the dairy COW is
queen, country prosperous is seen,
and dairymen, in joyful ranks. are
packing bullion to the banks. Why
plug along the old sad way producing
nutmegs, corn and hay, and putting
up bankrupt wall if one years crop
should chance to fail? There is a bet
ter method now-the method of the
dairy COW; this critter always earns
her keep and piles up riches while
you sleep and pays the taxes and the
rents; and here in Colorado, gents,
we have the climate and the feed,
and all conditions dairies need. So
let us boost the dairy COW, which
beats the old breech-loading plow;
the Holstein and the Jersey, too. as
smooth as any COW in view. Let's
talk up dairies. milk and cream the
safest money-making scheme.

PRESIDENT HARDING MADE GOOD
CHOICE IN APPOINTING DENBY

The selection of Edwin DENLY, of
Detroit, as a Member of President
Harding's Cabinet to fill the office of
Secretary of the Navy, revealed the
fact that he has considerable know
ledge of the practical side of naval af-
fairs, due to his experience as an en-
listed man in the Navy and Marine
Corps. and through his service, while
in Congress, on the committee on
Naval Affairs.
Edwin DENLY was born at Evans
vile, Indiana, February IS. 1870, and
is the son of the Honorable Charles
to China in 1885 with his father who
was U. S. minister in the Chinese
Maritime Customs Service, and re-
turned to the United States in 1894
He then attended the University of
Michigan, graduating with an l.. L.
B. degree in 1896, and was admitted
to the bar the same year
Since that time he has practiced
law as member of the firm of
Chamberlain, DENLY, Webster and
Kennedy. his law practice being in
terrupted at times, While he served
in Congress or in some naval or mill
tary capacity. He was member of the
Michigan House of Representatives in
1902 and 1903, and Member of the
59th to 61st Congresses G9O4-11). In
1913 he was President of the Detroit
Charter Commission.
At the outbreak of the Spanish
American War, in 1898, Mr. DENLY
enlisted in the Navy, and was serving
as gunner's mate aboard the U. S. S.
Yosemite when that vessel conveyed
the U. S. S. Panther to Guantanamo
Bay Under the guns of the Yosemite,
the Panther landed 900 U. S. Marines
the first U. S. troops to set foot
upon the soil Of Cuba during the war
with Spain.

WE ARE BECOMING SANE AGAIN

Il have worked IL hours day for
more than so years" said Webster,
the great American statesman.
Work. Work. Work; that is the
main thing said Lincoln.
There is more happiness in work
than in anything else Many of us
who drudge. druge away year after
year will feel like disputing that
statement offhand. But if they will
reflect bit, and consider just how
they would feel If they had absolutely
nothing to do, there are few of them
that will not say that without work
they would be lost.
Even the Bolsheviki believe in
work, only they don't understand hu.
man nature.
For several years there has been
more or less aversion to work. Not
that humans in the mass don't want
to work. But our minds have been
filled since 1914 or 1915 with all sorts
of half-crazy thoughts and notions that
have made many Of us poor laborers
in the field of endeavor which we
have chosen. We have been crazed by
desire for too much pleasure; or the
war has craZed us with the thought
that man is only made for CANON
fodder anyway; or we have been led
astray by the greed for money. All
these human lunacies have resulted
from the world conflict
But now there are signs that reo-
pie are going to work-are going to
put pep. enthusiasm and brains I'm
the things they have to do. That is
sanity and sanity seems to be com
ing to Asaerica first. Brightness will
not last forever in Europe either: the
turn will come sooner or later, and the
better.

The all day hike on Friday proved
to be quite a success. The Scouts left
the community room about 10 a. M,
and went about three and a half
miles west of town. A picnic lunch
was taken and everyone had a fine
time. The Lieutenants who went were
Lieutenant Nelson and Anderson. The
troop arrived home about five O'clock
p. m.
Thursday afternoon of last week the
Scout taffy pull held in the communi.
ty room was well attended, scouts
bringing one or two teasrdlushrdl d
one or two tea towels There was
folk dancing and games, after which
the scouts embroidered crosses in the
tea towels. The latter part of the af-
ternoon was spent in pulling the taffy
which everyone enjoyed.
The Girl Scouts enjoyed another
hike last Friday evening. They star
ted at about $50 and went about Two
miles out Of town. They built a fire
and had their supper. each one TAX.

LET SCHOOL CHILDREN VOTE

An interesting voting contest is CO.
ing on in the schools of Washington,
ID. c., as to the most popular tree in
America. The contest is under the au-
spices of the American Forestry AS
sociation, which has national head
quarters in the capital, and the plan
Is to "elect" national tree, that is.
If enough school children the country
over can be persuaded to hold cleo
tions and vote their choices.
Already more than $4,000 Washing
ton children have voted. Over 1000
placed their choice on the oak, al.
though the maple. elm. hickory, wal.
nut cedar and others have many
friends.
Why wouldn't it be corking idea
for the school children of our own
county to hold National Tree Elec-
tion" in their various schoolhouses
under the direction of their teachers ?
forestry is one of the biggest coming
problems and these children will nave
to deal with it when they are grown.
Why not let them begin now by Sc.
lecting a National Tree?"
If our children in this country hold
such an election. let them do it in
approved modern form. TheN should
first elect their election Officials
two judges and two clerks. Then have
a ballot box which any ingenious boy
can make. Count the ballots, make a
summary of the vote as cast. have Il
