RECENT DEATHS
GAS HEATER FOUND IN CABIN
TIGHTLY CLOSED WHERE
TWO NUDE BODIES WERE
DISCOVERED IN DENVER
Guy Associated Press,

DENVER, Dec. 27.--Asphy-
xiation was advanced by authori-
ties today as the possible cause of
the deaths of Doris Cool, 10, and
Harold Crawford, 90, whose nude
bodies were found in a tourist
cabin near Aurora.
They said a gas heater was
found burning and the cabin tight
ly closed.
A definite theory of the tragedy,
however, was not advanced pend
ing the result of a chemical
analysis of the contents of two
bottles of wine found in the
cabin and the contents of the
couples stomachs.
The operator of the tourist
camp said the couple rented the
cabin late Christmas night.
Their clothing was found scat
tered about the floor.

scrupulously honest with everyone

The value Of engineering contracts
awarded decreased sharply. and the
value Of building permits increased
less thnn is usual from December to
January. Substantial decreases were
recorded in wage and employment
schedules.
The January declines In both retail
and wholesale trade were greater than
usual for that month, neither freight
carloadings nor automobile registra-
tons showed the customry seasonal
increases. A non-seasonal rise In
wcstbound traffic through the pana-
ma Canal was more than offset by an
extremely low volume Of easthound
shipments, principally because Of re-
duced cargoes of lumber and PEE
troleum.

The little son OF well-known min
lister came home one evening with q
handful OF circulars. on being asked
where he had found so many, he said
that he had picked them up from the
lawns Of all the houses for several
blocks around,
The father explained to the little lad
that someone had paid to have those
circulars printed, and after he was
sure his son understood, he said,
what shall we do about 1t, Haroldp"
Put them back" answered Harold
quickly. But, he added hesitatingly
as he looked out of the window, sit
is getting dark"
"I'll go with you if you wish," the
father offered.
So the pastor of the big city church
went with his little boy to return the
circulars to theh lawns of the neigh
borhood, many of which were In front
of the homes Of his parishioners. The
occasion was impressive. It was diff
cult for Harold to remember the Local
ton of all places where he had picked
iup the handbills, yet he thought with
Father that they should be put back
Just where he had found them.
I'm glad you helped me take them
back" he said smiling up at the min
lister as they re-entered the house. ~

Harold will never forget this Incl
dent, and it will help him to under
stand and practice honesty in every
situation In life, for 1t taught him te
think of the rights of others.
When children take what does no,

they do not realize the injustice they

G. @. Roseberry, editor of the Shaw
nee (oklahoma) News, says:
That in a recent survey by a GER
tain newspaper to determine the fea-
lures which had the greatest reader
interest, 1t was found that advertising
ranked near the top. People are EVIL

of their wants as possible with the
least outlay of money. To do so they
read advertisements religiously.
The most important thing business
can do to hasten good times is to go
