In city From Cave Greek


Mrs. E. w. Gurnett, owner Of Sierra
Linda ranch at the mouth of Cave
Greek Canyon was in Douglas over
wednesday night securing furnishings
and materials for her ranch hotel.
Mrs. Gurnett reported the road in ex-
cellent condition all the way and that
travel is reasonably heavy, especially
through traffic. :,
"With roads as they now are" said
Mrs. Gurnett, ''there is no better way
to get to the beauties of Rhyolite
park, or the Wonderland of Rocks, as
we call it, than the road through Cave
Greek canyon, and none shorter, all
features considered Furthermore, one
can make the trip from Douglas to
an easy walking distance of the beau
ties of wonderland by automobile II
they go through Cave Creek canyon
From the point for parking the auto
mobiles, I have walked it in an hour
easily. If one wants to avoid the walk
bllrros or ponies may be procured
The entrance to which I refer takes
one right to the great balanced rock
and a panoramic view of the entire
park"

much wisdom in the axiom that il
takes less mental effort to climb IN
legitimate success than to climb to
an 1llegitimate success. Legitimate
achievement requires no fortifca-

achievement demands more in it's re-

1t is a gross injustice to humanity
to say that if there is any one thing.
more than another, that enlists very
much of the attention, time and eff

DIG DEEP

DIG DEEP if you would have the

The profoundest beauty in a great
painting, or the work of sculpture,
and the rarest jewel of wisdom on
the printed page will not be found
on the surface. Art does not sur
render its true self to those who will
not "drink deep"
One may wear gold and jewels
without descending to "unfathomed
caves" or burrowing underground,
but for the richest treasures in liter
ature, painting, music and sculpture
one must do his own prospecting. |
Others may create it, but the indi-
vidual must discover it for himself.
Art is the one absolute common
wealth. Though the common prop
erty of all, it is enjoyed by the few.
Numbered among the natural re-

THE VARIOUS national holidays
tend to become mere occasions OF
festivity and enjoyment, yet each
one of them has a distinctive atmos.
phere which appeal impresses itself
on thoughtful people. The true
meaning of such day may seem in
the rush of modern life to be OBJ
scured. Yet when any occasion has
some vital significance, sooner or
later the American people will again
become conscious of it, and insist
that its true meaning be recognized.
Thanks giving Day is one of the
most vital of these occasions. It or
iginally resulted from the strong re-
hgious faith Of group of early col
onists, who amid scenes that would
seem destitute and menacing to us,
yet found faith to praise the divine
power for the things that had been
given to them. They could sing
psalms, even if hostile Indians
threatened and crops were uncer-
tain, and a mountain of work yet
lay ahead of them to tame a vast +
The idea seemed so appropriate
and helpful, that the custom spread
over the whole country, and became
4 national holiday. Though it is
observed today in ways quite remote
rom the original spirit, yet we do
we'll to retain it, in the confident
lope that as the tides of peoples
hought swing to and fro, we shall
ret realize its value more than we
10 now.
If those early colonists amid all
heir perils and labors and troubles,
tiny fringe of civilization in a rag
1g wilderness of savagery, could '
hank God and take courage, surely
70 should do so in our teeming civ
ization, with all our comforts and '
pportunities.
If we fail to thus render thanks, '
nd manifest that thankful spirit by
ractical helpfulness, we fall far
tort of the moral level reached by "
II forefathers here in Delaware.

TO AND FROM SCHOOL

How to get the children to and
from school is one of Americas edu-
cationaI problems. 1t is most acute
in the rural districts, where public
sentiment in many places demands a
modern school building, with trans
portation in busses for the children
from the outlying districts.
Parents may be reluctant to say
good-by to their children for all day,
and sometimes questions arise as to
whether they are well cared for and
controlled while being transported
But the number of rural children
thus carried to central schools is
likely to increase each year.
In populous cities and towns,
different kind of transportation prob
lem arises. Many parents are wor-
ried because their children in going
to school have to cross streets
crowded with automobiles. The dare
devil drivers career down these
streets, and pay little attention to
the School, Go Slow" signs. 1t
takes careful control of traffic in
such places to assure anything like
safety to these needless little people,
who are so inclined to dart out into
the street without thought of their
peril.
Many parents are so much con-
cerned by these dangers, that they
get out the family automobile and
drive the children to school when
ever possible. This is quite con-
-rast from the days when many chill
lren would walk two or three miles
Zach way daily in order to get their
educatiOn. The children are bene- I
tied by walking a reasonable dis I
ance to and from school, but one
an understand how parents in many
ases are reluctant to have them do
t.
The streets and open spaces near
many high schools are crowded to-
ay with the cars whic hthe parents
ave loaned to the students to go to
chool with. This would seem quite
luxurious to the old timers who tC
-alked a long distance to school. tt
tut the world is moving fast, and :,
ne young crowd feel they have to te
de in order to keep up with it. oi

ROAD TO SUCCESS

IN THE ATTAINMENT Of solid
well-founded success there has been
found a substitute for honest labor
with the hands or mind. The ages
have recognized this as an immu-
table truism, yet every age, includ-
ing the present, has had it's skeptics,
its unbelievers, its seekers after
fame and fortune without paying the
price in work.
Some sage has said that to attain
use half as much effort as
you would exert in attempting to
seek success without work. There is
