Christmas at Mt. st. Mary'S.

The Christmas festivities at Mt. st.
Mary's We're beautifully celebrated. At
midnight, Christmas Eve, a high mass
was celebrated at Mt. st. Mary's college
by Rev. J. j. Tiernty. The musi, was
, rendered ny Rev. FIR. Brown, and the
i'm ing was done by the students who
are spending their Christmas at the col
lege. As the students We're marching TO
the chapel, thAir attention was attracted
| by Larry playing the "Adaate.' We
learn that when Larry heard of the mi l.
night mass he made preparations to b.
on the hillside to play the "Adaste" for
the students at the college. The first to
notice the music was tn" young co!legian
who rang the bell for the midnight mass.
He notified his mates to come and listen
to the beautiful music Having played
the "Adeste" Larry went to mass and
from thence to his home to prepare for
his second journey. At 4.3O we find him
on his old stand, and the strangers who
visited this vicinity from the cities We're
greatly struck when they heard his mus
ic, and several have been heard to make
the remark that Friday, Dee. %, 1903,
was the happiest Christmas they ever
spent, saying that the beautiful custom
of Larry woke up in their hearts a new
spirit"
At st. Anthonys the Christmas serv-
ices began at five o'clock with Il solemn
high mass, Rev. G. II. Tragesser cele
brant, Rev. FIR. Gallagher of Washing
ton, deacon; Mr.. John Eckenrode as
subdeacon, Ernest Settler master of
ceremonies, and Ernest Wetz2! censor
bearer. The music was rendered by Miss
Emma Moore and the singing by mem.
bers of senior choir. At this mass FIR.
Gallagher delivered sermon. At 500
a. m. there was low mass, and at 3. 30
a. m. another high mass sang by the
Junior choir. Services concluded at 80
with vespers and benedi:tion. Under
the direction of Miss Elizabeth Hopp and
Mr.. J. Hemler the church was beautiful
ly decorated for the occasion.

OVER SIXTY GUESTS AT
THE CLUB LAST NIGHT

Decidedly one of the most inter
esting and enjoyable social and in
structive programs carried out by the
WOman's Club OF this city in many
months was that program carried out
last evening at the home Of Mrs.
James H. Lee ON Grand avenue. 1t
was really gentlemen's night at the
club. The married ladies had invited
their husbands and the unmarried
club ladies had invited friends among
the opposite sex.
The hospitable Lee home was Civ
en- over to the guests. The program
was carried out as announced, and
every number was a rich treat.
Fifty pictures from the state fed
Grafton, showing Italian art, were in
spected with keen interest and pleas

ing to a ruling made last night al
a most important meeting of the
school board.
At the same meeting important
steps were taken to further provide
for the protection of the 1900 school
pupils from the dangers attending a
fire, should one occur In any of the
school buildings.
1t was regular meeting of the
school board and all the members
save one, were present.
Metal Door Mats.
1t was decided to make purchase
of fourteen metal door mats for use
at the various school building en-
frances.
The president of the school board
was authorized to have the big smoke
stack at the furnace plant repainted
at once.
Revised Rules Adopted.
The rules for the qualification of
teachers, changed to some extent by
the state superintendent, were adopt
ed at the meeting last night and Supt.
Allen will be authorized to have 1000
copies of the revised rules printed.
More Fire Escapes.
1t was decided to ask for more fire
escapes for the Emerson school
building, that building being the only
one of the two story buildings with
out a complete complement of fire
escapes.
The matter of fire protection was
discussed at considerable length and
reports showed that the buildings

To Hold An Office.
1t was further ruled that no stu
dent of the Grand Junction high
school shall be eligible to office in
any of the literary societies or the
athletic associations of the school or
to any other offices within the gift
of his or her fellow students or the
teachers, unless an average grade of
10 per cent in all studies has been
made.
The Absences of Teachers.
The school board discussed the
absences" of teachers last night and
some interesting rules in this matter
when a death shall occur in the i'm
mediate family of a teachers that
teacher may be allowed four days of
absence at full pay. The relatives
who shall be called members of the
immediate family, mother, sisters,
brothers or child of the teacher.
On account of illness teacher
may be given a weeks absence at full
pay. If the teacher Is absent more
than week on account of Illness
then for each days absence after one
week she shall receive her salary less
the cost of employing of supply

ordered that the second supply teach

1t was decided to purchase the
necessary supplies for the rehanging

All the doors will be made to swing

No More Sororities.
After some discussion a motion
prevailed by a unanimous vote de-
claring that in the future no per-
mission will be granted for the or
ganization in the schools of this city
of any secret fraternity or sorority
and no such secret fraternity, So
ciety or sorority shall be permitted
to exist in the schools or shall be
allowed to appropriate and use the
title or name of the school in any
way whatsoever.
This ruling is positive and will be
carried out strictly. The matter has
been before the board for some time
Several organizations of the nature
of secret fraternities had been or
ganized In the high school from time
to time and 1T is ascertained that the
ruling of the school board in this
matter causes much disappointment
among the pupils. This does not
effect non-secret organizations.
Nearly all of the high schools of
the state have taken similar action
in the matter.

1t was decided by the board last
night that no student in the high
school shall be allowed to represent
