It has naturally changed a lot since the days when Soapy Smith, the West's greatest con man, .pronounced himself dictator and for a! while made it stick but it is still full of colorful people.

They are hardier souls than I am. we got back to Creede for lunch, and felt 'that we were among frieuds. Mrs. Hdrgraves, who owns the1 Creede Hotel, and her sister, Mrs. jMimms, made us welcome, and we ,were assigned rooms once occupied by Bob Ford's dance hall girls, though the dance hall itself is gone. We slept in jthe same beds the girls occur)' sd, and; Ford's room was directly over ours. Bob Ford yas, "The dirty little coward, who shot Mr. Howard, and laic icsse James ; in his grave."

This fine old gentleman made the firs' maps of the district, and I am told they are still in use. Thanks to JudgeNelson we Cot first hand information have gotten otherwise. At the hotel we met Stanley K. Weaver, a man whose like you rarely encounter any more. He is an, old time cowpuncher and knows the country like the back of his hand. Miv Weaver owns an antique shop; filled with priceless relics of the country which is now closed to the pu4Lic. H took m through f , " . the place, and later through the esting museum, and gave us some able pictures which we. will use in our book. I asked Mr. Weaver to have dinner with us, but he insisted! on paying for the meal for all of us, and. the home cooked meals served by Mrs. Hargraves were as good as any we could obtain in Denver. The hotel and bar is much as it was when Soapy Smith ran the bar there, and Bat'Masterson was one of the card dealers. I have heard some pretty good piano players, but none who made somuch of a hit with me as Mr. Chester Brubaker, who has been playing there since 1920. Mrs; Harris noticed a Spiegel catalogue propped up in front of him and asked him if that was his music He said it was, but that he had only got as far as Ladies' garter jbelts. He plays by ear, and they told us he can play any tune that he hears once. Lawrence Welk- is .missing a bet by not having Mr. Brubaker on his program. At dinner Mr. Brubaker struck up the local song, "There is no Night in Creede," jthe last lines of which -t- - and I wish I could quote it all are, y "While the world is filled with sorrow. And hearts must break and bleed It's day all day in the daytime,1 And there is no night in Creede.j" Cy Warm an.

Tell them you know that they must feel they have a reason for not wanting you to date this boy, and if they will tell you why yon will try; to under-stan- d their viewpoint.

It may seem unfair to yoU for your parents to try to break up your ' romance but consider the fact that they may feel deeply that this to date other boy Is not good enough for you, and so they want-yoboys instead ;Of getting more and more serious about this one. Sometimes not always parents areJj better judges of character s, than their simply because they are older and wiser and more experienced. But parents can be wrong in such matters. So if you are sure that this boy is as fine a person as you think he is try to work out some , kind of an understanding with your parents..
