THE DAY
WAS IDEAL

Yesterday was truly an ideal
Easter Sunday, n perfect anniversary
OF the most sublime, beautiful and
inspiring occurrence known in all
human and sacred history, the an
niversary of the Resurrection OF the
Lord, Jesus Christ.
The many churches of the city fit
tingly observed the day. In every
church impressive and beautiful SER
vices were held. Special Easter
musical programs were carried out
and the ministers dwelt upon the day
and its meaning in their discourses
and sermons. There were prayer SER
vices and communions as early as
six O'Clock in the morning at some
of the churches and throughout the
day and evening sacred celebrations
of Easter were held in various
places of worship.
Thousands of people attended
Easter services in Grand Junction.
Every church was well filled at al
most every service.
Lovely flowers, most sacred en-
blems of purity and divinity, were
used in beautifying the houses of
worship. Many of the altars were
perfect bowers of floral lovliness.
Aside from the religious devotions
and celebrations the glorious day,
which really marks the beginning of
the spring season. was enjoyed to the
fullest extent by all. Hundreds and
hundreds of people were out driving
through the orchard districts view
ing the fruit trees now wearing their
richest, sweetest garbs and giving
forth an aroma that enchants and
invigorates. Nothing could be more
enjoyable than a drive through the
4. ..k
at this time. Easter Sunday
might well be called Bloom Sunday
in the Grand valley, without any dis
respect to the grandeur and more
sacred memories of the day.
The entire city and valley wore
the smile of happiness. the garb of
spring and felt the inspiring breath
of the coming summer, yesterday.
Truly it was an ideal Easter Day

ARE GREAT
WRITEUPS

In Sunday mornings Denver Re-
publican and Denver Post and in
Friday afternoons Denver Times
there appeared u series OF as fine
writeups of the Grand valley, Grand
junction and the wonderful fruit in
dustry of this section, as were ever
sent forth. Each article is Illus
trated with fruit scenes. They are
certainly splendid articles and will
do the valley world of good.
These articles are from the pens
of the newspaper men who came to
the valley last week with Lee Haney,
the general advertising agent for the
Colorado Midland. The illustrations
are made from photographs taken by
Photographer Mcclure of the Mid
land advertising department.

BOY KILLS
HIMSELF

The second child to meet tragic
death in the valley within a period
Of three days was Harrisan Linn
baugh, aged II years, the son OF Mr..
and Mrs. Moses Limbaugh, who re-
side OF, the Fruita road and 1Dour
miles from Grand Junction.
Yesterday morning, while playing
with an old revolver which he had
taken from a trunk, the boy acct
dentally discharged the gun and the
bullet passed directly through his
heart. He died instantly
1t seems that the boy was visiting
for the morning at the home Of Mrs.
Doolittle, near the Limbaugh place.
He was. playing with the two little
sors of Mrs. Doolittle. They en-
tered room used as a storeroom,
and in an old trunk the Limbaugh
boy found the revolver. One of the
other boys told him to put the gun
down, as it was loaded. 1t seems
that he started to do so, but touched
the trigger in the meantime. There
was a loud report and the boy fell
to the floor dead.
A physician was called. but his
services were not needed. Then Cor
oner Day was summoned and viewed
the remains and pronounced the
death to have been accidental. The
remains were removed to the under
taking establishment of E. A Krohn.
The revolver which caused the
death was of 32 caliber. 1t had not
been fired in long time.
The dead boy was a member of a
family of eleven children. He was
an exceedingly bright lad and was
quite accomplished as a musician.
His untimely death caused intense
sorrow in the neighborhood.
The funeral occurred this after
noon at 3 o'clock from the Bethel
church. Interment at the Crown
Point cemetery. The services were
largely attended and there were
many beautiful floral offerings.

FOR BODY

A. d. Long of Grand Junction is,
with other relatives, making every
effort to locate the body of his miss
ing niece, Ms. Jesse Il. Adams.
w. M. Adams, president of the
Seventh Day Adventists conference
of Port Hammond, B. c., was in this
city Saturday. trying to locate his
wife, Mrs. Jessie l.. Adams, who dis
appeared in Denver on February 5,
and has not been heard of since.
Mrs. Adams, who was prominent
worker with her husband in the
church, had been visiting in her old
home in Iowa, and, en- route to join
her husband, stopped over at Boul-
der, and on February she left
Boulder for Denver. She reached
Denver, as investigation afterward
showed, but there she disappeared
and no trace of her has been dis
covered, or of her baggage, although
and other cities have been working
on the case and a reward is offered
for her body.
Mrs. Adams is 80 years old: is
about 5 feet inches in height, and
weighs It's pounds. Her hair is
light and wavy and she has blue
eyes. No plausible explanation of
her disappearance is possible, since
her character and her home rela-
tions preclude the possibility of any
deliberate Abandonment or her hus-
band
Mr.. Adams left the city Saturday
night for Salt Lake City, and from
there he goes to his home in British
Columbia, and Mr.. Long of this city
is TO see that the search is kept up.

That every boy and girl in the counsy
may have the advantage of better edu-
cation than the grammar school furnishes.
That the money now being sent out
of the county for this education may re-
main in it. 1t is costing individuals of
this county from 500 to $1,000 a year to
educate their children away from here.
3 That the children OF this county may
remain under the influence of their
homes during the tender years of youth.
4 That we may invite immigration to
our county.
That by the concerted efforts of two
or three teachers we may provide our
young people with better equipment
for life than they now get
6 That our county may be among the
first in the State in its educational
facilities.
