gratitied the next morning to see
the teams and men at work un-
der the direction Of Mayor Nc
Fadden and Night Marshall
Boehmer. The mayor was pres
ent and when asked to furnish a
man to supervise the work will
ingly agreed to do so.
An effort had been made to
have Mr.. Kuyrkendall of the
State Highways Commission ad-
dress the club, but owing to the
stress of the election in Denver,
Mr.. Kuyrkendall telephoned his
regrets and said he would be
pleased to come at some future
date
In the discussion of roads it
was reported that the county
commissioners had agreed to be-
gin soon on the Berkeley park
road to grade it and put it in
shape. The grading on Wads-
worth avenue, it was reported,
would be completed and ready
for the gravel this week.
The work on the new road,
paralleling the C. & S. railroad,
is practically at a standstill on
account Of delay in getting a per-
NIT from the State to cross the
school section. 1t seems that
it requires a legislative act to
create this permit, no one having
such authority in any official po-
sition. If this is true the matter
has evidently been poorly han
died or else an invisible inhu-
ence is being brought to bear
against the Improvement. In
any event the delay is most de-
plorable, as the road means much
to Arvada. The matter should
be taken up at once and com.
mittee of our most influential
men should be put on the job and
they should leave no stone un-
turned until some tentative az.
rangement is made whereby the
work can proceed.

Commercial Club Banquet and
Smoker Was an Enjoyable Affair.

The Commercial club held a
banquet and smoker Monday eve
ming, which was success in a
social way, and those who were
absent missed an enjoyable eve
ming. The attendance was not
as large as it should have been,
but the threatening weather, no
doubt kept many away.
Nevertheless it was a good
meeting and men sat about in
groups and discussed good
roads" and what was needed
here and there to improve Ar
vada and make it more beautiful
and more desirable as a place to
live. Messrs. Recht and Bill
brough of the entertainment
committee, did the handsome
thing when they set an array of
ham and cheese sandwiches,
pickles, coffee and cake, before
their guests, which soon allayed
any cravings Of hunger that may
have had possession of the inner
man. After the luncheon cigars
were passed and greatly enjoy
ed, as they told stories or dis
cussed matters of Importance.
The main business transacted
was arranging for Cleanup
Day" and the discussion Of the
road and street situation.
The application Of Mr.. Lilly
was received and acted favora-
bly, upon.
Two teams were magnani-
mously donated to the use of the
club by T. l.. Yeager and Mr..
Hurst to be used in cleaning up
the alleys and four men were
ordered to be hired to do the
work. Several dollars were con-
tributed by the men who felt the
moral responsibility of the club
to carry out the program, while
other members did not seem
embued with the same spirit of
enthusiasm. However, those
who gave cheerfully were much

In Memoriam.

Abigail Hunt, nee Norris, was
born near Wheeling, w. Va,
Feb. 9TH, 1910, died at her late
home near Arvada, April II, 1913
at the age Of 73 years, 2 mos.
and 10 days. November 13, 1856
she was united in marriage to A.
G. Hunt of Washington, Pa.
The family moved to Illinois in
1860, in '67 to Missouri and in 80
to southern Kansas. In search of
better health, Comrade Hunt re-
moved his family to Western
Colorado in 1883. In 1899 they
purchased their late home in
jefferson county.
In the death of Sister Hunt.
following 50 soon after the de-
mise of her husband, our be-
loved Comrade, the Comrades of
Major Anderson Post, and fami-
lies have suffered an irreparable
loss. In the wisdom Of our Heav-
enly Father each one fills a place
another cannot occupy. In our
happy gatherings the places oc-
cupied by Comrade and Sister
Hunt must be forever vacant.
The best that we can do is to
hold them in sacred remem-
brance and strive to emulate
their example.
We will miss the quiet life and
wise counsel Of our beloved Com
rade. The modest manner dis
played by Sister Hunt in enter
tanning her guests made her
hostess with few peers and no
superior. Her graceful bearing,
while exhibiting her self-denial
for the comfort and good of
others placed her beyond the
ability of any to initiate. To
have once been the recipient of
her boundlegs generosity was to
compel you to hold her in ever

Nordica to Sing at Lakeside.

The last concert of her current
tour is to be given by Nine. Nord-
lea at Lakeside Park Theatre,
Friday night June 9th. The
famous American prima donna
has not been heardin Denver for
six years and it is not likely that
she will be in America during the
coming year, as she is booked for
a long tour in England and the
continent. The CavallO Symph-
ony Orchestra is to be heard in
concert with Nine. Nordica and
will inaugurate a concert series
lasting through the summer, be-
ginning with the appearance of
Nordica. 1t is possible that spec
ial rates will be made by the rail
roads as was done in April for
the season of the Chicago Grand
Opera Company at the Auditori-
um. Seats for the Nordica con-
cert can be secured by mail by
addressing Baur's Confectionery,
The regular seat sale will not
open until Monday, May 26, 9 a.

Services Were
Largely Attended

The Union services at the M.
r.. church last Sunday evening
were largely attended, all avail
able seats being taken and stand
ing room was at a premium.
The High school pupils were
out in full force to listen to the
baccalauriate sermon which was
delivered by Rev. Cooper in a
plain and impressive manner.
The graduating class occupied
the front row of seats and the
the other members of the school
had reservations directly back of
them.
Rev. Reavis, of the Presbyter-
ian church, read from the text
and offered the opening prayer,
which was a fervent and eloquent
supplication for the young men
and women who are about to be-
gin life's great journey upon
the social, educational and COM
mercial seas.
Next followed song by the
congregation and an anthem by
the High school chorus, which
was rendered in a most pleasing
manner.
Rev. Cooper was at his best
and as he spoke Of what to him
seemed to be the greatest sue
cesses in life he waXed eloquent
in his enthusiasm and made his
listeners feel that he was for the
time living over his school day
day experiences.
He drove home the fact that
the accumulation Of money was
not the prime object Of life, but
that service to humanity and fill
ing place in the moral and in
tellectual realms Of society should
be the dominating principle.
Unfortunately Prof. O. B.
Drake was unable to be present
on account Of sickness.

Dan Cupid Puts
On His Gum Shoes

Dan Cupid, on the 2lst of April
last, put on his gum shoes and
creeping stealthily forth in our
midst captured Miss Pansy Cradle
one of Arvada's fair daughters,
taking her from behind the count
er of A. J.Recht's Emporium one
afternoon and spiriting her away
to Golden, where he put her in
the custody of Old King Matri-
mony. who with his magic key,
locked her in the castle of connu-
bial bliss with Fred Graft as her
life mate.
Mrs. Graft came back and was
at her post next day, and until
Mrs. Recht became suspicious of
the various purchases made by
Miss Cradle" and Mr.. Recht
was tipped off and began kid
ding, " and finally secured a con-
fession, the marriage was still a
secret.
The news that she was already
married almost took her employ
er's breath away, as it has her
large circle Of friends, for her
secret was kept from all save her
parents until this week.
The happy young bride will re-
linqulsh her position to Miss
Gertrude Lucas and go to join
her husband who is a prosperous
ranch owner in North Park.
Mrs. Graft is the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. X. Cradle and
the groom is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. B. Graft, all of this vicinity
and both are highly respected in
this community
Their many friends are extend
ing their congratulations.

At two O'Clock this morning at
his home at the corner of Grant
and East second avenues, occurr-
ed the death of Solomon Gephart.
The deceased had moved here
with his family about three
weeks ago from Illinois, being in
very feeble health at that time.
He had suffered from a paralytic
stroke and while his death was
not a great surprise it came even
sooner than his family had antici-
pated and is consequently a great
shock.
Mr.. Gephart was born July
25th, lSl5, in Sandusky county,
Ohio. Twenty years ago he
moved to Murpheysboro, ILL.,, and
one month ago removed to Ar
vada. He leaves a widow and
one daughter Mrs. John Jeffrey
and four grandchildren, one
brother and one sister, the for
mer living in Ccntralia, ILL.,, and
the'sistcr, Mrs. Rhoda Overmeyer
at SWantOn, Ohio. The funeral
will probably be held tomorrow
from the Baptist church. The
deceased having been a member
Of the Lutheran denomination.
In connection with the street
improvements that have been go
ing on we mention Evans d Ben
nett, Williams q Tcctcr donating
the services Of teams two days
and j. G. Hurst furnished n man
for two days on Valley avenue
hill, the first Of the week.
Thanks to j. G. Juchem, the
wagon scales have been removed

cidcd improvement in the ap-
Dearancas Of that side of the
street.

cred W. M. EIIi8of College Ave,
Tuesday evening, as Il farewell
party prior to his departure to-
night for Alaska, where he goes
in company with his brother from

fair until the Time Of parting,
which naturally castagloom over
the company when they recalled
the cHDause Of land and sea that
will separate them. The Enter
prise joins ali in wishing the
brothers a safe journey and
lucky strike.

The funeral of Roy Andrist
was held Sunday afternoon from

was filled to overhowing with
the many sympathizing friends.

Episcopal minister conducted the
funeral services. A choir COM
posed of Miss Stannard, Mrs.

The services were most inn
pressive and the marked atten-
ton and sad expressions upon
the faces of the audience show
the deep regard they felt for
the boy who has gone from them
on his last journey, and the SYM
pathy they silently bore for the
bereaved family.
The floral offerings were num-
erous and beautiful and spoke
more eloquently than words what
