NEW FOREST SUPERVISOR

William R. Fraser will take charge
of the Gunnison National Forest as
Supervisor on January l, 1922, since
Supervisor Charles Stewart has ten
dered his resignation to take effect
at the close of December 81, 1921.
Mr.. Fraser comes to the Gunnison
with an excellent record behind him.
He was first appointed as clerk on
the Montezuma National Forest, with
headquarters in Durango, in August
1907: From that position, he has risen
through the various appointments of
forest ranger, deputy supervisor and
supervisor. He has been for the past
two years on the Pike National For
est, holding the position as Supervis-
or, but acting in the capacity of Dep
uty Supervisor under Supervisor Ress
Philips. His experience through the
thirteen. years of work in the Forest
Service well qualities him for the
position in charge of the Gunnison
Forest. He is man of pleasing per-
sonality and there is no doubt that
users of the Gunnison Forest will en-
joy their associations with him.

A MODERN MIRACLE

while billiards ragged all around,
arctic winds howled and blasted snow
swirled and fell and drifted, and
thermometers shivered from terrible
cold, Denver was radiant from just
enough winter to make it place of
splendor and joy and good cheer and
loveliness wonderful to behold. While
the storm king held sway in other
parts of the country, the dear, kind
God was smiling upon Denver"
To which we might add ''Mon Dieuv'
or "Mein Gott!"
What heathens and sinners we must
be, we who were unfortunate enough
to live for the past week somewhere
on the footstooI besides the sacred
bit of land at the confluence of the
Platte and the Cherry or Cherokee
rivers. The billiards ragged and
howled, the icy blasts swept over the
mountains but an angel with fam
ing sword undoubtedly held at bay
the wicked elements, and all they
could do was to gnash their teeth and
champ their bits at the lower end of
Champa street, or wheeze dismally
where Wazee street debouches into
the open prairies.
Such miracle as this should not
be permitted to be buried in the pink
piffiings of the Denver Post. With .
the heavenly host smiling above and
the black smallpox stalking below,
this twentieth century picture of the
Garden of Eden should by all means
be rescued from oblivion.
OF course, it is of no particular
Importance that the weather bureau
recorded no such extraordinary event.
If you see it in the Post it's so-or
snow. The prosaic record will no
doubt read that during all this week
very mild temperatures have pre-
vailed and storms and billiards with
the exception of some seasonablc
snow, have not made their appearance
in the mountains. But who would
wish to destroy this seraphic picture
of Denver surrounded by the wild
witches of the storm, basking in the
smile of Omniscience itself, be aiming
down on the temple of justice where
the Post poet-or was it poetess?-
was clicking the merry typewriter as
the magnolia blossoms from Wewatta
street sent their perfume through the
open window *
Many miracles have been chronicled
in history. This one, fresh from the
presses of the Post, is the most re-
mankable since Baron Munchausen
wrote his memoirs.-Leadville Herald.
