Economical Stove.

The ever increasing cost OF coal has
led to the development Of heating
stove that Will burn sawdust or the
lower grades OF coal that are unsuited
in the ordinary stoves. There is a
separate magazine inside the drum

and packed with fuel. A removable
core is placed in the magazine be-

INTERESTING STORY OF
PRESENT LIFE IN GER
MANY BY l.. Err

Some time ago George Berg of this
city wrote to his friend, Louis Vein
berger, former resident Of Gunnison,
who now is at Wursburg, Germany, in
curing about real conditions in Ger
many. Some of the questions asked
by Mr.. Berg were: what will be the
ultimate disposition of the German
money!" "What do the majority of
the German people desire, republic
an or monarchical form of govern
ment ?" How is the working man
faring?"
Under date of February 10Th, Mr..
Weinberger answers these questions in
an interesting letter which follows in
part:
you no doubt get some exciting
news, and news that was handled Just
the same as it was handled before and
during the late war, all in favor of
France and accusing Germany Of all
wrong deeds. Now, George, Germany
did deliver coal and other goods to
France and the other allies to such
an extent that her own people have
to suffer for want By only a small
percentage she did not come up to the
required quantity. All the people in
Germany are willing to make repara-
ton, but they cannot do impossible
things. France is entitled to repara-
TONS but she wants Germany kept
down and enslaved. Their sending a
big army into the Ruhr district is al
most the same as war. They want
to run everything, but the miners re-
fuse to work under military guides.
The employees of the railroads refuse
to work under their orders and all
other government workers are hold
ing out; they are showing themselves
men all through. The French have
tried every means to bring them to
their side, but SO far have resulted in
failure. Their object has been and is
yet to rule that part of Germany.
They call it punitive expedition for
not complying with the treaty. They
treat them with indignities, disarmed
people. French imperialism is what
dictates to all Europe now. How does
this come up to the Wilson plan of
fighting for democracy, and to down
Prussian imperialism? Most Of the
German people are for the republican
form of government, but there is a
large part of the country where the
people would like to see the old rule
back again.
1.-THE money question is difficult
one to settle. AS you know, the Ger
man mark is of little value. This
makes everything dear, living high;
and wages are correspondingly high.
The workingman fares well, but the
class of people who were living COM
fortably on their incomes before the
war are having a hard time now to
get along, and many Of them are in
distress. As long as there Is plenty
Of work, there viii be little trouble.
"The outlook is very encouraging.
What is desired more than anything
else Is the understanding among ma
lions to have peace 50 that the people
can work and not hate each other.

DEBATING TEAM LOSES
TO HOTCHkIS ii. s

The High School debating team,
composed of Helen Foster, Fred Stull,
and Chas. Wright, met defeat at the
hands of the Hotchkiss debaters at
that place Monday evening. The local
team had the affirmative side of the
income tax VS.. general property tax
question. They defeated Meeker on
the same side last week, and had they
been successful at Hotchkiss, they
would have gone to Boulder to meet
an eastern slope team. The Gunnison
team was accompanied by Mrs. Aria
Walker, of the English faculty. The
following men were judges: Mr.. Hun
sicker, of Eckert; Mr.. Peck, Cedar
edge; Mr.. Jandiee of Crawford. The
decision was two to one in favor of
the negative side.
While our team won the affirmative
against Moeker at Gunnison recently,
it is one of the few instances in the
state where the affirmative has been
successful, and it was largely due to
cleverness of our boys and girls, and
the fact that the Meeker team had a
canned rebuttal", which did not APP
ply to. points of the Gunnison team.
The question as stated was in effect
this: Resolved that the state should
substitute an income tax for the gen.
eral property tax" One might argue
that it would be wise to add an IN
come tax to the present tax system,
or to substitute it for personal prop
srty tax, or part of the general prop
erty tax, but to argue that we should
substitute it for all general property
taxes, is such an absurdity that no
man in his right senses could seriously
advocate it.

settlement will be established; this
cannot last forever. The imitation of
money must stop. How they win sta
balize the mark is a problem. To be
a millionaire in Germany is not much
more than a pauper. Everything is
measured by the dollar. A good suit
of clothes is worth about 100000
marks. The cheapest cigar one can
buy is 60 marks. Eggs are ESQ marks
each; beer, 800 pint; wine, 1900 n
bottle. E
'The U. S. helped win the war. The
world will mott be satisfied until she
forces the real peace.

not tire you any longer. One thing !
meant to mention is how much you can

ON LOSING THINGS WHEN
SHOPPING

Does it seem sometimes that you
have an almost constitutional weak
ness for losing some Of your belong
ings when you shop? This is a real
misfortune, for not only does such
habit represent a real economic loss,
and so has a direct bearing on the
family finances, but often the articles
themselves have a sentimental value
for which money cannot compensate.
Whatever the cause Of the trouble,
whether carelessness, fatigue, or lack
OF pockets, you can do much to lessen
the likelihood of these losses occurring.
The manager of the lost and found
department. of big store says that
only few of the many articles picked
up in the store every day are marked.
Consequently the Office can do nothing
toward returning them.
Pocketbooks and bags, of course,
should always be marked plainly with
the owners name and address inside
a piece of tape sewed in. or small
key tag fastened securely to the lining.
All easy way, but not so dependable,
is to carry one Of your CARDS in your
purse.
It is always difficult to keep track Of
several packages of different size. The
simplest thing to do is to ask the clerk
to tie them all together securely when
ever you add new package to your
collection. Another plan is to write
your name and address on every bum
die as soon as you receive it.
Then there is the difficulty of car
rying a number of bundles at once.
For this one Of the many kinds of
shopping bags is Indispensable. When
you go into rest room, keep a watch
full eye on your purchases. And never
take off your rings in a public wash
room to wash your hands.
Furs should never be tucked care
lessly under the arm, nor laid on the
counter while examining a purchase.
They should be worn with strong
cord that will permit of opening wide
for comfort while in warm store.
Always make sure you have closed
your bag or purse securely. TO walk
about in a throng of shoppers with
your purse half open on your wrist, is
simply to invite pickpockets.
And finally, a wise shopper will make
list Of her errands, check them off as
they are accomplished, and carefully
count her bundles and her change after
each purchase.

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
MAKING CLOTHES LAST
LONGER
@. 1922, Harland H. Allen.

Do you not know women among your
acquaintance who literally spend
hours and hours hunting for clothes
in the shops, and hundreds of dollars
in buying them, and then after all this
trouble, neglect to manifest the faint
est interest in taking care OF them, SO
that they look old and shabby after
few times wearing?
Clothes well cared for, mean money
saved. It matters little how expensive
a garment you may get, or how tine
quality the textile may be, II you 90
not sacrifice the necessary time each
day to keep it brushed, and hung on
hangers, and frequently pressed. Many
a woman envies some friend who IS
able to present smart appearance On
q smaller clothes budget than she,
without realizing that she could do
the same thing herself it she but TOOK
the same pains. One woman can wear
a suit three seasons, and still look we'll
dressed, while on another person the
same suit looks shabby after the first
season. and has to be discarded for
new one.
Make it habit never to put coat
or skirt away with street dust on it.
1t takes but a second to whisk the dust
off with a broom before removing the
garment and, once the habit is formed,
it is easier to put the dress away on
hangers than to throw it around from
one chair TO another. If there are
spots or stains on a garment, act quick
ly. A moments attention in time may
save dollars Of cleaning COSTS
AS soon as stockings or underwear.
are taken off they should be gone over
quickly to see if any stitch or darn is
needed. 1t takes very little time to
mend the rip when first it appears.
Every little break in sweater should
be caught Immediately or before night
it may turn into gaping tear.
Shoes should be put away in shoe
trees every night; and repaired as
soon as the heels begin to run down,
or the soles to wear through. Stock
ings should be washed out each eve
uing and another pair worn next day.
Have two of everything, and prolong
the life of each article by giving it
rest" frequently.
This sounds like great deal Of trou-
BILE for busy women, but think of the
money saved. For any dress or gar
ment so cared for will last twice as
long as If neglected.

What Is Grape-Nuts !?

Grape-Nuts is highly nutritious
food in the FORM of crisp, golden gran.
uIes. 1t contains the full nutriment of
wheat and barley, including vitamin-B
and mineral elements required for
building sturdy health. These ele-
ments are often lacking in the ordinary
diet, chiefly through "over-refnement"
in the preparation of food.
No other food is so thoroughly baked
as Grape-Nuts. More than 20 hours
are consumed in the baking process
which makes Crape-Nuts easy to
digest, and also develops natural
sweetness from the grains themselves.
The form and crispness of Grape
Nuts invite thorough mastication-a
decided advantage because this not
only provides proper exercise for the
teeth, but makes for good digestion.
