Respectfully submitted,

C. M. DANFORD,
Committee.
A resolution presented by c.
M. Danford commencing the
Curran Advertising Company for
putting up posters on the local
bill boards urging the people, to
patronize the home merchants,
was adopted.
1t was generally regretted that
the people Of Arvada do not take
more interest in this organiza-
tion, as it is intended to be a
benefit to the town and everyone
init. Many matters OF import
ance arise from time to time that
need the voice Of the people to
reflect the sentiment that pre-
walls with reference to them, and.
when the people can be gotten
together and these things dis
cussed, speedy action can be had.
For instance, the mail service was
secured over the Tramway. No
one can claim any credit for it but
the members who have been
loyal to the Commercial Club.
There will be another regular
meeting of the club on Mon
day night next and every one
in any way interested in Ar
vada is urged to come.
