Agreeable to your re quest, I wish to say a few words to your readers: How slow we are to say the kind word so easily spoken, to assume the smiling countenance to which we are rightfully entitled, and to grasp In heaty hand-clasp those around us to whom such little tokens mean so much. There comes a time in the lives of all when a good word or a cheerful greeting from someone whom you have a right to expect to extend it. means so much more than it does at any other time. When the day is dark and gloomy how Joyfully we greet the ray of smiling sunlight that suddenly breaks through the dark clouds, and bow much more appreciat ed would be the happy smile and the cheerful greeting. Just now one of our most highly respected and honor able citizens, one who has done so much to bring to the attention of the world at large, by practical demon stration the many desirable features of our locality, as an abiding place, is laboring under a constant strain, brot about by circumstances beyond his control, and for which be is in no manner to blame. Having once over come successfully the many obstacles FINE WORK BEING DONE BY BUSINESS MEN’S ASSOCIATION From Wednesday's Daily. The Business Men's Association Is doing some mighty effe<tive work in bringing Canon City to the notice of the public. The aim is two-fold; To encourage the touriat business; j To bring in homeseekerm. The work has been well organised and is showing results. Of course If anybody expects to see our streets crowded with tourists ev ery day like a Fourth of July celebra tion. they are doomed to disappoint ment. That is not expected this year —or any year for that matter. But the association is most pleased with the efforts made so far by those in charge of the work, and the direc- I tors are absolutely certain that results i will be achieved that will repay the FULL CORPS OF TEACHERS SELECTED FOR CANON SCHOOLS From Tuesday's Daily. By recent election the Board of Education of District No. 1. all va cancies in the corps of teachers for the school year of 1910-1911 have been filled. There are 33 teachers in the list which includes superinten dents and special supervisors. Eight of the teachers will be new to d\ir schools although all of these have had successful experience elsewhere, and most of them have college de grees in addition, and it is expected that they will greatly strengthen the already efficient teaching force. The pay roll of these teachers for the year will amount to $25,430, which, how ever. is several hundred dollars less than last year. The following is the list of teachers although some slight changes may be made in their assignment: High school—George C. Sherwood, principal and superintendent. Miss J. Otllla Kahn, assistant principal and German. C. D. Hall, science and ccvumaudant of Cadet Corps. Miss Emma K. Whlton. history; Miss Grace Bailey, mathematics; Mies Lois E Slaughter.

Cer tain conditions have arisen unforseen by him, that are causing delays In his plans, and, would it not be better for each of us to greet him with a cheer ful smile and a word of encourage ment when we see him, than to stand around and prophesy all the disasters that were ever conceived by Jealous and pessimistic minds. He is certain ly entitled to the best we have to give him in the way of encouragement when he is doing all that mortal man can do to help us, and the next time you meet Mr. Dali DeWeese take him by the hand and tell him you hope that all j obstacles will be overcome .and that he may again triumph as be did when She built the DeWeese-Dye ditch under | such discouraging circumstances.

' From Wednesday's Dally. There are three great domains of our earth —the land, the sea, and the air; or scientifically speaking, the lithosphere, the hydrosphere and the atmosphere. We dwell on the sur face of the land; we sail across the surface of the sea; but we live at the bottom of the atmosphere. And we have come to find that whether we are occupied on the land or the sea, we are all more or less influenced in our actions by the changes that are con stanly taking place in the atmosphere. The study of these changes has de veloped the science of meteorology. This science is only made up of cer tain well-known facta of physics, such us those which govern the properties of gases and vapors, and the laws of heal and moiiou. As soon as scientists began to grasp the laws governing atmospheric changes on a large scale, such as weather conditions involve, then came the practice of determining from cer tain prevailing conditions what fntnre changes would result. This practice is known by all now as forecasting Hitherto everyone had been his own forecaster. Signs and omens are still supposed by some people to give in fallible indications of the weather. Our government has gone about the work of predicting the weather in such away as to eventually put the old-time weather prophet out of busi ness. All civilized nations have so far recognized the importance of a weath er science as to have established weather departments which publish maps and charts for the benefit of the LINCOLN PARK NEWS From Wednesday's Daily.

The first weather maps were issued in con nection with the Great Exhibition o£ 1851 in London. France has published daily maps, fortelling the weatheil conditions since September 16, 186 S. In 1870, the Chamber of Commerce in Cincinnati issued for a few months a series of maps arranged by Prof. Ab be Then on Janury 14, 1871, the work of manifolding, onr present form of maps, was begun at Washington. Our weather maps and forecast cards are based upon simultaneous observations made at about 150 sta tions in different parts of the country, besides several co-operating stations in Canada. Central America, Mexico and West Indies. The observations consist of temperature, barometric pressur, humid*.., wind direction and rainfall and snowfall, and the state of the sky. The forecasts include predictions of cold waves, killing frosts, storm winds along the • «oasts, river floods, and all other or- I dinary changes in the weather. In an hour from the time the obser vations are made, they are placed up on a chart, in the forecaster's office in Washington. This chart gives a blrdseye view of the weather condi | tions over the United States, as they were an hour before, and also the ! changes that have taken place within the last 24 hours. Knowing the laws that g'rveKi 'atmospheric changes, he can predict the probable changes for the next 24 hours.
