As the officer through ! whom the grievance came to the at ; tention of the Times put the case, it is I as though in business a mail knew that 1 no matter how hard he worked he ' would never get a better position or have his salary or income increased. ! "1 think," be adds, "that it will tend ! to break dow n morale, as w hat is the I the sense of doing one's best if there is no chance for re-ognitiort of meritor ious services? Many of the enlisted na n now in Germany should deserve and cet commissions as reward for their splendid work and high i'ialitications. The Kovernment i.i prodigal enough in other directions, and, if this a form of economy, it is ill-advised." It would be unjust to say that army men think only of promotion, hut there is no question that they think of it a .rood ileal, and that the hope of it, if not the chief motive of their action, is one nhvays present, at least subcon sciously. To withdraw this incentive lor any long extent of time can hardly fail to have its effect on morale. New York Times.

Second in importance to the animal net is the much-hearalded "Amaisi" where vaudeville is presented includ ing, of course, the ever present Kgjp tian dancer. "Over the fop'' is there for those who like thrills, and underground China town has a certain fascination. The monkey sneerlway. the submarine, and the motordome are among tho attrae- 1 tions visitors are urged by ingenious ballyhoo artists not to miss. ; "Ten In One" is the sideshow offer ing where the usual freaks are to lie ' found, and some that are not usual. About the grounds are tho- i ver-pop-ular merry-go-round, the Ferris wheel and the newer riding devices. ! The carnival is an interesting place . and there is a pleasing lack of vulgar ity so often accompanying that sort of entertainment. The local. Woodmen arc sparing no effort to present an at- ; tractive carnival and ar succeding. : It will remain lor the balance of the : week. the most part small cottonwoods or aspens of no commercial value. The beaver closely resembles the common muskrat in general appear ance, but is considerably larger and has a broad, paddle-like tail, flattened horizontally instead of vertically. The spend their entire lives in or about the water, felling trees, building dams across streams, erecting great houses of tree trunks and branches, in the In terior of which they live in cozy warmth during cold weather. The re markable intelligence displayed by the animals in felling trees in convenient I'ications and dragging or filiating them into proper position, and the wonderful manner in which the upper sides are made waterproof by a. plas- ; tering of mud set ins little short of impossible until it has been actually observed. Beavers not only cut down trees for the purpose of making dams, but they also use the smaller upper branches as it storage supply of food for wintei use. These branches, of from two to four inches in diameter, are cut into lengths of two or three feet and then carried beneath the water into the beaver houses or the burrows with which the bank of every beaver dam is honeycombed. Here they are care fully stored. The green bark is the staple article of food throughout tne winter. In the springtime hundreds of these sticks, cleanly denuded of the bark, may be seen floating downstream or caught against the banks of the dam. At one time, owing to the value of their fur, the beaver faced imminent extermination, but, thanks to prompt and rigidly enforced legislative protec tion, they were saved from this un timely end for for the last several years have been increasing in abun dance. About three miles above Littleton is one of the most perfect beaver dams ever seen, and at its upper end is a large house of typical construction. The dam is nearly a hundred feet from end to end and about four feet high. The house is about 20 feet in diameter and stands at lease five feet above the surface of the water. All along the banks lies a chaos of fallen trees which offer a splendid opportunity to study the method by which these remark able little animals gnaw them down with their sharp teeth. THE THRALL OF THE OPEN The same truth is true of all men who go out Into the green, blue-eyed wilder ness whether they go there in pursuit of game or butterflies. They find sorai -thins stranger and better than what they went out to seek, and if they come home disappointed in the day's bag or catch, there is yet something in their eyes and across their brows, a light of peace, an enchanted calm, which tells those who understand that they at all events have seen the great Pail and heard the music he can make out of the pipy hemlocks or the lonely pines.

Among the many varieties of wild" North American animals, few if any ! possess as interesting habits as does ' that four-footed artisan, the beaver. Like most of the wild animals, he is nocturnal in habit, and for this reason Is seldom seen by human beings, but. . unlike other animals, the evidence ot ! his industrious activities may be found along many of the Colorado streams. In some places, the entire topography of mountain valleys has been changed by beaver dams slowly filling with sediment, thus deflecting the chan nels of streams and forming Jlat fertile . areas where once there were rushing rocky torrents. ' Denver is probably the only city of its size in the world that can boast of vvild beaver within its corporate : limits. The Platte, river offers an ideal ! environment for the animals and evi dences of their activitay may be found j In abundance along this stream from j the southern city limits north. In fact. I not more than two years ago there j Misted a beautiful beaver dam and a j perfectly constructed beaver house within a stone's throw of the Alameda avenue bridge. All about the dam , and along the stream above it may still ' be seen large numbers of trees cm down by the beaver and the stream banks arc honeycombed with itheir ; burrows. The beavers' propensity for work , sometimes Rets them into trouble with their human neighbors. On several ; occasions the Denver water company has been compelled to secure permits : from the state game and fish commis j sioner to trap over-Industrious indi I viduals who have worked havoc with ! the supply ditches and headgates. They i also appear to have a predilection for gnawing down fence posts, to the dis gust of the exasperated farmer; and a telephone post was once seen which was on the verge of toppling over as a result of their activities. On the whole, however, they are harmless' and altogether fascinating j animals. They do no damage to crops and tile trees they cut down are for Rlf E '. i i ki i iw )H i i i I ' fv III' --4---?H -f- . I I. : .jpL pi j "L -! 1 : . 1 i j TT7:.!- i i .
