Under the direction of Denver Post Americnn Legion rml8-
tlco Day was ilttlnply observed at Bf aver Saturday November
11th-
Tho Gate band assisted bv Beaver nlnvers. furnished music
for the occasion and headed tho parade which formed at noon and
marched to the Pavilion where a big free basket dinner was serv-
ed to the ex-service men and others.
Following dinner a short program was given. The crowd
joined In singing "America" and addresses were given by Rev.
P. M. Tibbs.and Rev. H G. Butler. D. M. Constant sang "Yes
terday."
A football game between Beaver and Buffalo furnished after-
noon entertainment. The game resulled in a tie 0 toO. A dance
at night completed the day's festivities.
A large crowd was on hand to participate in the colebration
ex-service men and others coming from all parts of the county to
join in the observance of the day.
Business houses and the streets were elaborately decorated
with tho national colors and many homes displayed Old Glory.
So far as we have heard Beaver was the only point In the
county to observe Armistice Day. While we are more than glad
to have the folk come to Beaver yet the day should have been
more generally observed. '"Business as usual." is all right for
other days but on this Day of Duys business should cease at
least for a time and tribute be paid to those who fought and many
who died for our safety and prosperity. Those who did not and
could not come to Beaver to observe the day should have arrang-
ed for some sort of commemoration in their own town or commu
nity. It is not right that the sacrifices of Our Boys should go un-
heralded on this day. Another year we hope to see the occasion
celebrated even in a bigger way at Beaver and at other points in
the county. v
And then another thing in connection with Armistice Day
and all other days when the Colors pass in a parade Americans
should uncover. This act is a symbol of devotion and reverence
to country. Not in a spirit of criticism but as a reminder of hom-
age due our Jlag we must call attention to the disregard shown by
those along the street when the parade passed Saturday. Women
kept up their visiting men kept on their hats and there was not a
hand-clan except here and there.
A small thing many say due to thoughtlessness on the part of
the spectators.
No It Is not a small thing. The Flag stands for America. It
is the Great National Emblem Its presence should recall tho
duty every American owes his country. Every time we salute the j JJJ""
uoiors we reminu ourselves man we are not 10 rcguru America as kindness
a land from which we are constantly to get and keep getting
without giving anything In Return. Wo are to acknowledge our
obligations as citizens as well.
Failure for respect for tho llag whether thoughtless or not
means a lessening of our sense of duty to what the lllag repre-
sents. We cannot afford to be lax In our reverence for this visible
standard of our common life. Show us a man or woman boy or
girl who never forgets to salute Old Glory and who is ready with
a shout and a sheer when tlie Hag goes by and w.c will show you it
100 percent red-blooded American. That's not saying some
who do uot cheer and shout are not 100 percent Americans but you
can dead sure bank on the patriotism of those who are thrilled and
manifest some enthusiasm on such occasions.
The more you think about the future
and about opportunity and about success
the more enthusiastic you become about be-
ing a money saver.
It would be as sensible to say that two
and two make five as to say that one can go
right on spending money heedlessly and ex-
pect opportunity to halt before him.
It doesn't require higher mathamatics
to figure out where your present course is
leading you.
If you have mastered the art of saving
you can forecast with reasonable accuracy
how much of a factor you will be in the great
days of opportunity which are drawing near.
Open that account today at.'

Tho word having gone out that
tho Ku Klux Klan would parade
at Beaver Saturday night tho
streets were crowded with peoplo
regardless ot the Inclemency of
the weather many coming from
nearby towns and from tho coun-
try to witness tho spectacle.
At the appointed hour 8 o'clock
tho knights ot the K. K. K. ap-
peared in full regalia. They tra-
versed Douglas avenue In automo-
biles announcing thai public speak-
ing would be held at the court-
house. The crowd followed to the
courthouse and tho people were ad-
diessed by Ed Vosburg ot Wood-
watd who explained tho working
and the aim ot the klan. During
his talk six robed men entered the
court room and remained for about
.half an hour. There was no dem-
onstration. Wo understand the
Klansmon were from Buffalo and
Perryton Texas.
It had been planned to Initiate
members we understand but on
account ot the inclemency of the
weather that part ot the program
was postponed until a later dato.
The Herald has very llttlo com-
ment to mako on the Klan. Being
a woman we are not eligible to
membership therefore not permit-
ted to know the secret workings
ot the order. Wo cannot pass
judgment on that ot which wo do
not have definite Information. Or
dinarily we have ncer thought
It necessary to go behind a mask
to do any good 'hlng and that In
the one matter In connection with
tho Klan that wc cannot Just bring
ourself to approve however If It
Is good the Klan wishes to accom-
plish wo aro for them good and
Btrong.
For more than twenty years wo
have been editor and publisher of
The Herald and during all tbat
time wo have stood opn and
above board for the tiling wo be-
lieved was right. It hus cost us
some business some happiness
some social life and no doubt
some friendships. We do not claim
to have been always right. We
are willing to accord others the
same privilege and will gladly Join
In any good work they wish to
promote.
