DELTA BOY LOSES
EFFECTS IN FIRE

fire of unknown origin in the Frat
building of the Boulder university Fri
day caused the complete loss of the
building as well as the personal effects
of many of the college boys.
Edwin Mathers, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
H. E. Mathers of this city, had an ex-
perience which was to say the least,
thrilling. He and three other boys had
a sleeping porch opening from their
two rooms and one of the boys woke
declaring he smelled smoke Rushing
to the door the boys found flames and
smoke entering their room They
seized what clothing and other prop
erty they could secure and threw it
from the third story window to the
street below. 1t was impossible to
enter the room and they made their
escape by tearing bed sheets and
forming a ladder which was attached
to one of the beds.
Very heavy rain had been falling for
sometime and most of the property
thrown out was trampled in the mud
or ruined by chemicals or water.
The boys are taking their final ex-
aminations this week and Edwin may
possibly accept a situation in Eastern
Colorado for the summer.

RESPECT FOR THE GRAVE

1t seems almost to have become
fetish in some sections of this country
to invade the resting places of those
on whom history has placed garlands,
eXhume their bones and convey them
to some new shrine nearer the scene
of the deeds which made them famous.
This tendency may have been the out
growth of the more natural desire of
gold-star parents to bring back the
bodies of their boys from the fields Of
France 1t should be a matter OF sin
cere regret, however, that a shallow,
mawkish sentiment should disturb
those who have slept peacefully dur
ing the storms of more than cen
tury. The records as written in HIS
tory's page cannot be enhanced by
the knowledge that the crumbling
bones of patriot or scholar rest be-
meath a new shaft dedicated to their
memory. One of the first cases OF
this misguided zeal was the effort Of
an American archeologist to recover
the remains OF Pocahontas from her
grave in an English cemetery. Time
had effaced the record of the tomb
stone and the activities of the ex-
plorer violated the reverence which
the simple villagers had for the
graves OF their forefathers. Official
protests over the desecration OF the
cemetery finally reached parliament.
Whether they sufficed to check the
opening Of graves is not clear, but the
guest did not prove successful.

Tradition has 1t that elephants,
sensing approaching death, Immediate
ly make tracks for their hidden
cemetery and the accumulation Of
thousands Of years of ivory is the
prize to him who discovers the place.
Armed with a bow and arrow and
with instructions to mortally wound
any elephant that passed and to fol-
low him to the last resting place, the
natives placed Slnbad the Sailor, OF
Arabian Nights fame, in tree and
left him, relates the Detroit News. Sin
bad was equal to the emergency. After
wounding a big bull elephant he
jumped upon the back OF his victim
and obtained free transportation to
the rich graveyard-to his profit and
that Of the savages.
