POOR SPoRTMANSHIP.

One of the saddest features of the
Englewood-Arvada football game
Saturday was the display of sports
manship, or rather the lack of it, on
the part of some of the players.
Every team is bound, sooner or
later, to meet reverse-a better
team, a bunch Of hard luck or flukes
over which they have little control.
The loss of game in itself is rela-
lively unimportant. The game has
been introduced into preparatory
schools to instill school spirit, to fos-
ter athletic prowess, and to inculcate
into the players the spirit Of sports
manship. Through the major sports
in schools, boys are held in school
at relatively high academic stan
dards who otherwise would drop out
years before.
Saturdays game gave several ex-
hibitions Of sulkiness following the
miss Of difficult play which should
not be unnoticed. Several later
plays were "bobbled' that might
have forced a different score
Players wearing either school or
town uniforms should remember the
fact that they lose their identity in
any game and play only Us represcn-
tatives of town or srhool As such
representatives their best is the least
they should have to Lffer.
Arvada wants winning teams, it is
true, but first and foremost, let's
play the game! Let the whole stute
point this way to . team as great in
defeat as in victory--trtc sports
men.

WHY KICK ABOUT TAXES?

II you think you ore paying too
much taxes and that the big business
firms should be penalized for your
part of the government, ponder on
these facts:
The assessed valuation of the
Great Western Sugar company's
holdings in Colorado for 1923 is
26,495,O32 an increase from 1916
Of 272 per cent.
Then ponder over the justice and
equity of the railroads which enter
Colorado, and incidentally pay more
taxes in the state than any other
one business, being assessed for the
road maintenance for the various
auto passenger and freight trucks,
who pay taxes only only their cars
and are admittedly the most deter
iorating influence on good roads to-
day.

Little Child.
in White

The gentleman in black paused
beneath the open library window.
He stretched his arms to the win
dow.sill, and drew himself up
slowly, taking care not to ruffle
his clothes or hiss dignity.
In the room above the library,
a little child in white was sleep
ing. A scraping noise awoke him.
ond being q very hospitabIe In
FAINT. he trundled downstairs to en-
terrain.
"Who Is there?. q voice whis-
pered as he entered the room.
81 am. and where are you.
Dad?''
The gentleman in black rose
from behind a large divan. The
little child In white realized In
stantly that this was not his
father. He had blundered.
The. gentleman spoke, II am
here to purchase some diamonds
from your father. Do you know
where they are?
They're in the safe behind that
picture, but cant open the safe.
The gentleman thought while.
"Well. perhaps your mother
can, or your sister. or the maid.
Where are they?"
Mother and Sis are out to
church." the child replied. And
the maid is at the movies
At these words, the gentleman
in black laid down his big re-
volver and began to examine the
safe. But the child continued to
speak. and the cook ID gone
home till tomorrow. and Dad,
well, he's that man there behind
you holding your gun. "-Juggler.
