Glenwood Avalanche
That the people of Aspen and the
commissioners of Pitkin county are be-
hind the Mcclure Pass Highway posi-
tion to a man, and are ready to get

] the pleasing situation learned when
the board members of the association
and local highway enthusiastswent to
Aspen recently TO meet the commits
sioners and others.

ment. In the party going from Glen
wood were +. f. Lucas, Postmaster

panied the party.
The people of Aspen, realizing that
next to Paonia they will profit most
by the opening of Mcclure pass, which
will bring a constant stream of travel
thru Aspen as a short cut to Denver

any move that portends early success
for the highway. They will attend the
big picnic on Mcclure Flats on June
25th, and many of them will go on to
the top of the pass to meet the dele
cation from the counties on the other
side.
Sheriff George Winters was the
principal speaker before the commits
sioners of Pitkin county, for he knows
every foot of the road between Car
bondale and Placita lying in Pitkin
county, for which Pitkin county has
appropriated $500 to put in repair.
His suggestions were received by the
commissioners with appreciation, and
having rendered his personal assist
ance in putting the road in shape, he
was offered truck and other equip
ment to use on the section of highway

in condition for the big picnic and the
meeting with the state and highway
officials.

REVIVES MEDIEVAL CUSTOM.
Jersey Court Puts Woman In Iron Cage
 Fnr Public Exhibition.

Following an old-fashioned practice that smacks of the Middle Ages, a woman sentenced by the Jersey Royal court was placed in an iron cage and subjected to the gaze of large crowd ot visitors, who, out of curiosity, had gone to watch the proceedings. In her despair the poor woman went into mysteries and had to be removed.
 The woman, Daisy Southard, native of Exeter and the widow of George Will liam Warren, formerly of the Devon regiment, was accused of having made a false declaration with reference to the birth of a child. She stated it was her husbands, whereas it was shown the latter had been dead three yers. After being sentenced to pay ? fine, and to go to jail for one month, she was then placed in an iron cage situated in a corner of the court for all to see until her shrieks compelled her removal.
 In England the practice of publicly exhibiting minor offenders in the stocks fell into disuse about hundred years ago.-Continental Edition of the Lon don Mail.

"PRESERVE OUR HER|TACE"IS
COMMISSIONER PARSONS PLEA
FOR Maine BEFORE ROTARIANS

1t proved an inspiration to the
members and guests of the Rotary
club to hear an eloquent address on
the great natural beauties and splen-
did resources of the state of Maine.
by a man who is a thorough believer
in the state, and in daily and 1nt1-
mate touch with many phases OF
Names wonderful natural assets.
Willis f. Parsons, commissioner of
inland fisheries and game, was the
speaker at the regular meeting of
the club at the Augusta House. Fri
day evening, and he brought to his
hearers a message as big as the
Maine forests, as breezy as the top
of Mt. Katahdin, as eloqeunt as are
our $500 miles of rocky seacoast, as
convincing as the statistics on the
states tourist business, which he
quoted, and as pleasing in every way
as a perfect summer day in the great
open spaces can be.
The half-hour talk by Commission
err Parsons came as the main fea-
ture of a meeting which was marked
by its pep and enthusiasm-in the
group singing and in the responsive
applause in appreciation of the
splendid address.

Cross, and Erskine p. Noyes, local
chairman for the saftey week cam
paign, which has been quietly but
efficiently conducted in Augusta and
vicinity during the week just closing.
Captain Miller, with Mr.. Noyes as
his subject gave a demonstration of
the Shafer prone pressure method of
resuscitation. He explained the use
of the method in cases of drowning
or suffocation from smoke, or cleo
trio shock, recounting instances of
success in cases where the patient
had experienced suspended ANNA
ton for periods up to and over two
hours.
The demonstration was watched
with the closest of attention by the
large number of Rotarians, and the
members of the club were thorough
ly appreciative of the courtesy of
Capt. Miller and Mr.. Moves in pre-
senting the graphic demonstration of
this favored method of saving hu-
man life.
Names Natural Resources
Mr.. Parsons, when introduced as
the principal speaker of the even

present to address the Rotarians,
telling them that he realized that
they were representative of the bust

much to forward the interests of the
fish and game department and in as
surfing the preservation of the great
natural resources with which the
state Of Maine is favored as no 9TH
