Under Windshield

When Pinned Beneath
Wrecked Auto


Hazel Robertson. the five-vear-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. c. D. Rob-
ertson of Orin, was crushed beneath
the windshield of car when it went
over bank three miles south of
Colville Sunday. The girl was un-
conscious for several hours after the
accident, and it seemed that death
would result. But the next morning
she was conscious and is expected to
recover.
The car was being driven south by
Mr.. Robertson, and had turned out
to let a Cadillac bug, driven by Cor
bett Wilson. pass. The road at the
place of the accident was wide
enough to accommodate three cars,
and the tracks showed that there
were IL feet between the Maxwell
driven by Mr.. Robertson and the left
side of the road. Wilson says he
was nearly by when Robertson sud-
denly turned the front wheels of his
car. striking the rear fender of Will
sons car and tearing off a tire. This
threw one side of Robertson's car
over the bank, where he ran along
for 35 feet before the front wheel
cayed in and the car turned over

of the car were thrown out, barely
missing the pole and a boulder which
lay a few feet away. Hazel was
pinned under the wind shield, and
was saturated with leaking oil and
gasoline before she could be extri-
Gated. Miss Stevens, sister of Mrs.
Robertson, suffered fracture of the
arm just above the wrist. Mr.. and
Mrs. Robertson and baby escaped
with few scratches.
The injured ones were brought inn
mediately to the Mt. Carmel hospi-
tai, where they Were attended by DIR.
Olds. The girls face was black,
and she remained unconscious
throughout the night, but with the
coming of morning was revived, and
spoke a few words. Recovery is
expected unless serious internal in
juries were sustained.

should be double halyards, one for
each flag.
The flag should never be placed
below person sitting.
When carried in parade, or when
crossed with other flags, the Stars
and Stripes should always be at the
right.
When the flag is used in unveil-
ing a statue or monument, it should
not be allowed to fall to the ground,
but should be carried aloft to waive
out, forming a distinctive feature
during the remainder of the cere-
mony.
When the flag is placed over
bier or casket, the blue field should
be at the head.
AS an altar covering, the Union
should be at the right, as you face
the altar, and nothing should be
placed upon the flag except the Holy
Bible.
The flag should never be reversed
except in case of distress at sea.
Instances of real flag desecration
are not common and cases of mis-
use arise usually through ignorance.
There is no national flag law and
no national code for civilians.
Many of the states have passed
laws prohibiting the public mutila-
tion, defilement or DETACHMENT of the
flag and forbidding the use of the
emblem for advertising purposes.
In the last five or more years there
has arisen a stronger realization of
the necessity of a definite code for
flag usuage, and the above rules are
generally accepted as correct.

A GOOD CITIZEN PASSES AWAY.

After a protracted illness extending
over a period of nine months, Mr..
Frank Andrus Joslin, secretary of the
Joslln Dry Goods Company and one
of the most widely known business
men of the West, died at his home,
1740 Franklin street, early Monday
morning. Mr.. Joslin was distinctly a
pioneer citizen of that type that
brought to him host of loyal friends
both in his private life and among his
business associates. Coming to Den
yer in 1872, with his father, John J.
Joslin, the grand old man who but re-
Gently celebrated his ninety-third
birthday, he at once entered the bust
ness life of this city by aiding in or
ganizing the Joslin Dry Goods Co
This highly reputable firm has grown
to be one of the recognized institu-
tions of the West, to which all Denver
points with pride. Despite the neces-
sary exactions of his large business
affairs, Mr.. Joslin devoted much time
to the work of the Associated Char
tiles and was its secretary for ten
years. The COLORADO STATES
MAN offers its sympathy to the aged
father, to his family and surviving
relatives.

Williams Jubilee
Singers Delig h t
Large and Critical
Denver Audience at
City Auditorium

The world-famous Williams Jubilee
singers honOred Denver with their
presence and the rendition or a pro
gram that the very large and critical
audience greatly appreciated by their
response, as evidenced in the patron
age of the parquet and boxes, which
were sold out before the performance,
and the first balcony and mezzanine
being filled to capacity, as also the
generous applause which called for
many encores.
This aggregation of singers is with
out doubt one of the best in the coun-
delightful harmonies produced from
this octette of musicians cannot fail to
establish the fact that besides natures
endowment to them in the wonderful
art, they have carefully studied under
capable instructors and have reached
such an efficient standard as to MAIN
tain reputation worldwide in form,
and to cater to successful events, one
of which it was Denver's good fortune
to have on last Tuesday evening.
A representative audience greeted
the singers, Il large percentage being
white, and the program was listened to
with that rapt attention common to
music lovers whenever they are
charmed.
mr. nm NKrith hn
Bridal Charms" from the Rose
Maiden" by Cowen, the rendition of
which brought out the ability of the
singers for the classical; then came
the Negro spiritual, Couldn't Hear
Nobody Pray" proving the wonderful
effective powers of musical harmony
among our people. A number of other
"spirituals," quartet for male and fe-
male voices, also n musical sketch,
Going Back to Swanee," enlivened
the evenings entertainment, and again
the people of Denver expressed their
satisfaction and pleasure over the op-
portunity afforded them of hearing the
Williams Singers again.
Mrs. Hattie Johnson was accompan-
list, and the famous basso, Mr.. CraDbe,
with their associates, Mesdames
Greene, Kennedy, sopranos; Madame
Edmondson, Colorado product, and
the contralto of the company. Messrs.
Killebrew, Johnson and the ''inimita-
bic" Chas. p. Williams We're well re-
ceived. The Rev. d. e. Over, pastor
of Zion Baptist Church, through whose
indefatigable efforts and energy it was
made possible to bring these singers TO
Denver, must be commended for his
civic pride and contribution to our mu-
sic-loving community.

Did you ever think, son, how much it cost to
make man out of you?
Some one has figured up the cost in money
Of rearing child. He says to bring up young
man to legal age, care for him and educate him,
costs $4,000, which is lot of money to put into
flesh and blood
But that isn't all.
You have cost your father many hard knocks
and short dinners and gray streaks in his hair;
and your mother-oh boy, you will never know!
You have cost her days and nights of anxiety and
wrinkles in her dear face, and heartaches and sac
rifces.
1t has been expensive to grow you, but
If YOU are what we think you are, you are
worth all YOU cost-and much, much more.
Be sure of this: While father doesn't say
much, but Hello, Son." way down deep in his
tough, staunch heart he thinks you the finest
ever; and as for the little mother, she simply
not keep her love and pride for you out of her
eyes.
You are a man now. And some time you
must step into your fathers shoes.He wouldn't
like for you to call him old, but just the he
isn't as young as he used to be. You see, young
man, he has been working pretty hard for more
than twenty years to help you up and already
your mother is beginning to lean on you.
Doesn't that sober you, Twentyone?
Your father has done pretty we'll, but you
can do better. You may not think so, but he does.
He has given you better chance than he had.
In many ways you can begin where he left off.
He expects good deal from you, and that is
why he has tried to make of you Don't
finch, boy!
The world will try you out. 1t will put to
test every fiber in you, but you are made of good
stuff. Once the load is fairly your shoulders,
you will carry it and scarcely feel tiff only
there be the willing and cheerful mind. All hail
to you on the threshold!
It's high time you are beginning to pay
the freight, and your back debts to your father
and mother You will pay them up, won't you,
boy?
How shall you pay them?
By being always man!-Mabon (Miss.)

Protecting the Police
Asia Magazine.

It was well known throughout the
Malay states that for Chinese to
gamble is necessity, and government
allowed certain farmers" to provide
tables on licensed premises, where
Chinese coolies might lose their earn
ing under protection of the law. In
every town and village this farm
is the chief resort. But it was equ-
ally we'll known that no official is per-
mitted to gamble, and that if a Malay
CANDLES, he is guilty of grave off
ense. Thus for a man who was not
only an employee of "The Company"
l. e. government, but also police con-
stable and Malay, to gamble, was
a double crime.
How the Malay police themselves
dealt with such wickedness l discov-
cred one day when duties took me to
the frontier of neighboring state.
1t was my intention to pass the night
at the police station over the border.
On my arrival | was surprised to find
a Chinaman chained to the legs OF
each of the wooden led frames. In
curry elected the fact that these were
very bad Cinnamon. There was no
Jail, and they had to be thus secured
until it was possible to take them to
headquarters.

And he faces those responsibilities every
working day in the year.
It is not an easy thing sometimes for
him to refuse loans.
It is no easy thing for him to turn deaf
ear to entreaties.
But often times he has to do that very
thing in order to safeguard your interests.
Being human, it is often hard for him
to say "No" when personally he would like
to say "Yes!"
The banker has faced trials and tribula-
lions the past few years. And through them
all, he has acted consistently for the great
est number.
Without the sane advice of the banking
fraternity many man today would be on
the financial rocks-hopelessy insolvent, If
retrievably tangled in a web from which there
could be no escape.
Some day, some time, the people in gen
eral will come to realization of the true
worth of good banker to the community,
and when that day arrives there will be many
who will give thanks to the man, or men, who
helped them steer straight course through
the financial channel.

Accustomed to stories of crime, I
asked which was the zarticular label

my friend Hugh Clifford, the neigh
boring ruler, would have said to the
corporal and his party, but / confined
myself to suggesting that, because
visitors had come and the little room
was inconveniently crowded, it might
be as well to let the captives go free.
This seemed, of course, very irregular,
but the corporal acquiesced. Since
no money was refined, the status quo
ante was restored. Probably on fu-
ture occasions the police would be al
lowed to leave off as winners.

1t is safe to predict that Frank Kellogg
will have walkaway for United States senator
The Democrats have entered three candidates for
that offce-Mrs. Anna D. Oleson, Thomas j.
Meighen and Homer Morris. Meighen at
one time leader in the Greenback party. Nor
ris is a Minneapolis attorney. This makes a
three-cornered fight at the primaries, with the
possibility that Mrs. Oleson, against whom there
is an organized opposition, will lose out. How
ever, so far as Kellogg is concerned, it will make
little difference whom the Democrats nominate
at the primaries.-Princeton Union.
