When Felix Craft brought the

all the others was his power of the
human touch. 1t was said Of old what
doth it profit a man II he gain the
whole world and lose his own soul?'
May we not say with equal truth
what doth it profit man IL he rise
above his fellows and in the rising
lose the human touch?" Whether as
a fellow worker in the plant or as
Vice-President Of the Corporation he
was ever the same companionable,
lovable man.
1t is said touch Of nature makes
the whole world kim" Nowhere did j.
B. Mckennan manifest the human
touch more bountifully than when with
a group of young boys about him, he
taught them the ways of Gods great
out-of-doo which he himself loved
and knew so well. He was one of ma
lures noblemen. AS we unveil this
monument erected In his honor by the
employees of this great plant, we can
but exclaim how fitting that this lover
of nature and man of granite nerve
and will should be commemorated by
this great stone unhewn by human
hands.
Plato in his account Of tho death of
Socrates declares that the greatest
los to the state is the death of . good
man. AS Athens of old came to feel
her loss, so we this day realize ours.
We miss him as a neighbor, as a
friend, as a coworker, and as a fellow
citizen.
Take him for all In all he was .
man we shall never look upon his like
again.

Keen interest is being taken by
both pupils and parents in the Music
Memory contest being conducted III
the schools of Pueblo, the contest to
close the last of February. Many Oh
the parents are purchasing the whole
set or parts of sets of records of selec-
tiuns used in the contest.
Too much can not be said in favor
of home study. 1t is believed that
parents will appreciate the Importance
of this and will in every way possible
cooperate, affording the pupils OPP
portunities to hear the best music.

than 200 years ago can be given IN

of modern times. An evening con-
cert including the best talent can be
arranged upon short notice.
one of the finest ways to develop
music appreciation, it is said, is 10
listen to the music of the masters
Talking machines can be heard OH
every hand and the player-piano
bands, orchestras, concerts and chor-
uses all afford easy means OF familiar
ixlng people with the best of music.
The high cost of n lack Of training
In music or music appreciation is well
illustrated in the last years of the
life of Bismarck. When he had re-
tired to private life he attributed the
barrenness of his old age to the fact
that he had not learned to play some
musical instrument in his youth. He
longed for the solace and contentment
that an appreciation and knowledge
of music would have given him.

GRANDMA NEVER LET
HER HAIR GET GRAY
Kept her locks youthful, dark and
glossy with common garden
Sage and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell because it's done so naturally, SO
evenly. Preparing this mixture. tho.
at home is mussy and troublesome.
At little cost you can buy at any drug
store the ready-to-use preparation,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" You Just damp
en- a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this thru your hair. taking
one small strand at time. By morn
ing all gray hair disappears. and,
after another application or two. your
hair becomes beautifully darkened,
glossy and luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair. tho no disgrace,
is a sign of old age. and as we all
desire a youthful and attractive ap-
pearance. get busy at once with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
and look years younger.
