"Queen of Sheba," William Fox

described as a stupendous spectacle
and great love story. New York

out the run, until taken off to make
way for another of the Fox specials
1t is declared that the pageantry of
"Queen of Sheba' is unsurpassed for
magnificence on the screen and that
few such thrilling spectacles as the
chariot race ever have been presented
in motion pictures.
The filming of "Queen of Sheba'
under the direction of j. Gordon Ed

out the period huge force of work
ers in many lines of endeavor was
employed, and in addition every mem

it. Tom Mix, for instance, volun,
teered his services in rendering the
chariot race thoroughly realistic.
The construction of massive sets
the designing and making of the ella

and the difficulties in the way OF
completing the production on the

superable. They were overcome,
however, and "Gueen of Sheba'
given TO the screen.
Betty Blythe appears in the role Of
the Queen, Fritz Lieber, the noted
Shakesperian actor, is King Solomon

wife of Solomon.

ILLEGAL. FISHING

Fishermen around Julesburg who
are real sportsmen have n slogan
thew never forget while enjoying this
popular pastime, and that is throw
the little ones back" From several
sections Of the state come reports Of
more than the usual amount Of illegal
fishing in streams and lakes. Usual
ly it is done with seine beyond the
legal length. but an occasional report
that dynamite is being used reaches
the ears of game wardens. In sein-
ing hundreds of "small fry" are left
on the banks or in the mud to perish; /;
in dynamiting thousands of fish too
small to be of use now, but which
would mature into toothsome morsels
in few seasons are killed by the fish
hog" in his greed for the larger ones.
There is some pretty good fishing in
this state. and il would be better if
everyone would give little more heed
to the propagation of the finny tribe.
But even present conditions are sure
to be ruined forever. and it won't take
long to do it if We wink our eye at
the fellows who use seine and nets
and dynamite. Nature provided man
kind with cheap food and an excel
ent one when she stocked our streams
with fish. If allowed to carry out
their own natural breeding instincts
streams would remain constantly fill
ed with them and taking out a mess
of them would be as easy as it would
be enjoyable. Meat bills could be cut.
m addition to the fun that always
comes with feeling one of the finny
fellows pulling at the far end of the
line. But we are permitting both this
wonderful food supply and this mag
nificent sport to be ruined forever if
we don't, as good citizens, report every
instance of game law violation which
comes to our attention.

THE COUNTRY BAND

Supercilious city folks sometimes
make fun of the musical performances
of the brass bands that are organized
in many country towns. While on
their travels they often turn up in
the crowds that gather for these open
air concerts. and they sniff their nos
es and say it is not equal to this OF
that professional aggregation.
These country bands are made up Of
fellows who put their whole heart in
10 this form Of expression, and they
do exceedingly creditable work. The
automobiles tha. assemble from long
distances on summer nights 10 hear
them play testify TO the place they
fulfill in country life. Every country
center should support both a band and
an orchestra, for bright and gay music
will do lot to make country life
seem happy and up with the times.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1922-07-27
THE RETIRED CITIZEN

Almost every town in the United
States the size Of Julesburg has its
quota Of retired" citizens. BY that
we refer to citizens, in most cases
farmers. who have made comfort
able sum by economy and hard work,
and who seek = rest in town where
more conveniences are to be had and
neighbors are more thickly assembled.
As rule the man who retires only
does 50 after he has honestly earned
the rest he seeks, and we are certainly
not going to begrudge any man that
pleasure.
But We do believe that this class of
citizens could realize more genuine
pleasure in life than they are now
getting If they would enter more
heartily into the activities of the
community The man who moves to
town to spend the remaining years
allotted him could do no better thing
than to announce that he had come to
help make the town bigger and bright
er by taking a 'art in all public. civic
and charitable movements. He could
serve on committees and give other
-n4.1 more time to devote to the COM
munity's business interests. He could
help in arranging for celebrations.
speakings and public gatherings of all
kinds. and become generally useful to
the community. At the same time he
would be occupying his own mind with
some worthy movement, and thus
make the days Of his retirement use
full and pleasant for himself as we'll
as those about him.
We have place in the community
for the retired citizen. And nothing
is more pleasing 20 our people than to
have as neighbors that kind of re-
tired citizen who goes out of his way
TO make himself useful to the entire
neghhorhooG.

COUNTRY PlCNICS

One of the pleasantest features of
country life consists of the picnics
held by villages, organizations. Sun
day schools. etc. Many of us can re-
call when we were boys how much
such an occasion meant to US. We
can see with the romantic eye of re-
collections the long line of teams
vending their way to some pleasant
rural resort for this great event. How
we anticipated it. how we worried for
fear something would happen to pre-
vent our going. how we ascended to
heights of happiness when we were
safely headed for the spot, drawn by
faithful old Dobbin.
Occasions like this cultivate friend
ships, make town life seem joyous to
young people. and break down the
lines that separate cliques and neigh.
borhoods. We must always have our
gold old fashioned picnics.

THE STRIKE REVOLUTION

That is what the railroad strike is
being against findings of govern
ment wage board, on which they wer,
fully represented, enacted by Congress:
as part of the movement to get raj
rates down.
An order of the interstate commerc.
commission cutting freight rates was
followed by an order of the wage
board making cut in the wages OF
certain groups of shop workers or
railroads.
This is a square battle Of the gov.
ernment for the enforcement of its
own laws and the people who get
freight reductions cannot at the same
time pay wages up at war figures.
II this strike wins it is the first
step in a revolution that will extend
the same policy of overthrow to all
large industries, and force the farm
ers themselves to pay high wages on
low prices for products.
The railroads are advertising for
men to take places of those who are
seeking to nullify the authority of
Congress, at wages running from 6S to
II cents an hour, and AZ cents for
mere helpers.
Every man who steps into the
breach of deserter and repudiator
of national authority is entitled to the
fullest protection of state and federal
government as patriotic defender of
law and order.
The national railroad strike in de-
fiance of constituted authority, is a
preliminary blow to destroy Ameri-
can transportation systems. to cripple
industries and business, only to be fol
lowed BY bolshevism.

OVER CAUTION

People who are connected with
wholesale distributing houses say the
public has no conception of the spirit
Of over caution that has prevailed
among many business men for the past
two years. This is one reason for the
business depression of 1921. and it
is likely to lead to rebound of pros
perity as sharp as was the decline.
A wholesaler was speaking of this
the other day. and telling of the many
retail merchants who would send in
orders for single dozen of collars in
assorted sizes. also for dozen of
mems socks of different sizes. Ap-
psren,ly they only carried few col
lars and a few socks on each size. and

out their stock.
The visitor who heard these re-
marks was inclined TO doubt if they
represented general tendency. To
convince him the wholesaler took him
cut III his shipping room and they
looked over the orders they We're send
ing out that cay. They discovered
that hsis dozen of them were just
that kind, for not over dozen collars
or socks in various sizes. Also il was
