EYES
Eyes are tbs mirrors of the soul.

Eyes are this mirrors Of the soul.
Eyes are divided into two principal
classes-light and dark.
Hazel eyes denote steadIness and In
dictate constant affection.
Black eyes are tropical and are an
indication of strong passions.
Light eyes indicate dellcacy and dark
eyes are an indication Of power.
Deep.set eyes, with wrinkles at the
outer corners, show penetration and a
sense of humor.
Green, cat-lke eyes, although fasci-
rating, are dangerous, for they indl'
cate coquetry and deceit.
Eyes set closely together, especially
when there are wrinkles across the
nose, indicate cunning and meanness in
small things.
Eyes set wide apart indicate the
character will be generous. If too wide,
carelessness and extravaganza are in
dlcated The proper distance between
the eyes is the length OF one eye.
The eyes Of genius are said to be of
varying tints, like the sea--sometlmes
blue, tlnged with green or orange In
certain lights or, when affected by
emotion, deep and almost black.
Clear blue eyes belong to tempernte
regions. Other intellectual indications
being equal, what those with clear blue
eyes lack In power and passion they
will make up in subtlety and yersatil-
ity.

turned Monday morning from their
East Slope schedule. Coach Krause
took the team over and in reporting
the games say that the boys show ex-
traordinary good teamwork, but as

of ID. U. The team moved on to Gree

tesy by the Denver and Greeley stu
dents and were guests of honor at the
regular Aggie-D. U. game Saturday
night. Coach Krause was invited to
officiate as time-keeper during the
game. Walter Balm was the other
time-keeper. Krause remarked on the
fact that Walter Balm had developed
into one of the finest athletic specimens
he had seen in a long time Toots
Mondt, the husky Greeley wrestler,
who held Zybysco for over an hour
last month, is coaching the Aggie
wrestling squad, and was down for
the game with Balm.

Unidentified Burglars Enter Store Of
S. ]. Miller & Son and Rob
Safe Of $3.50 in Bills

The dry goods store of S. J. Miller
& Son was entered at an early hour
this morning and something over $500
in currency was taken from the safe.
At five O'Clock this morning James
Chelius, opening up the E. NJ. Collins
bakery, in the rear of the Miller store,
discovered the back door of Miller's
standing wide open. When Miller
came down he investigated and found
that the safe, which had not been lock-
ed, had been opened and all of the
bills, amounting to about $3.50 taken.
Checks and silver were not taken. A
torn five dollar bill was carefully re-
placed. About seventy dollars in one
of the drawers in the cash register
was overlooked. The stock was ap-
parently not disturbed.
Investigation shows that the burglar
entered the building by dropping down
the coal chute in the alley into the
coal bin. He then pried the door
open between the coal bin and the
furnace room and from there had
easy access to the main store room up
stairs. After carefully sorting the con-
tents of the safe the burglar made
his exit thru the back door, which
was barred from the inside by a

Somehow we like the idea of chang
ing the name Of the Grand river to
the Colorado" The word Grand is
too hackneyed as the name Of a river
to mean anything. There is "Grand
river" in every other state of the
Union. As the largest stream that
issues from Colorado, it ought to
have the name Of the great state that
furnishes its headwaters. And, in
deed much of the flow of the Green
river. which with the Grand now form
the Colorado in Utah, originates in
Routt, Garfield and Rio Blanca coun-
ties.

that Montrose and the other smaller

the effects of the more drastic enforce

Gets BUSY At
THE DUTIES /

The fine Italian hand Of the dog
poisoner is again apparent in Crested
Butte. according to reports received
this week Several good dogs have
been killed lately, including that Of
Joe Faussone. Faussone's dog had .
muzzle on, and the poisoner appears
TO have taken the muzzle OF, fed the
animal the poisoned meat and replaced
the muxxle. Another case 10 cited
where he broke the lock on the barn
door in order to get at the dog inside.
He has been into the stores and seems
to have used every one Of the dirty
tricks of the dog prisoners art.
The citizens Of the Buttes haye sub
scribed reward of $500 for the ap-
prehension of the culprit-
A dog poisoner is just about the
lowest specimen of humanity that is
permitted to live, and il his identity
could be. established he wouldn't last
rs long as the old-time cattle rustler.
Every spring seems to produce some
cowardly pervert whose only excuse
for killing a dog is the pleasure Of
seeing it die. A dog is one of the best
friends man has, and their trust in
man is certainly deserving of recip-
rocal protection.
Why not settle your grudge like a
man, Mr.. Dog Poisoner?
