He is rather proud Of them, as
he says everyone claims his place
is no good, and the turnips came
from ordinary seed which demon
stratcs that the soil must have
done more than its share in pro-
ducing such wonderful turnips.
He says a good deal depends up
on the cultivation Of vegetables,
as well as the necessity for good
soil.

A very enjoyable and instruct
i've meeting was held Tuesday
afternoon at the home Of Mrs.
J. S. Doughty. 1t was the regu-
lar meeting of the w. c. T. U.
but the afternoon was given over
to Mrs. Craise, a settlement
worker in Denver and the mis-
sionary Of the Arvada w. c. T.
U. Mrs. Craise lives in the
poorest district in Denver, SO as
to be able to keep in perfect
touch with these unfortunate
people. Her talk was entirely
along the line of her work and
the twenty ladies present heard
things that put them to thinking
and will no doubt spur them on
to even better work than has al
ready been done here,
Several member sof the w. c.
T.U. here often go and help with
the work for a few hours and
any donation, no matter how
small would be most gratefully
received and delivered to the
settlement house. Dainty re-
freshments were served and the
ladies all left feeling they had
spent a most profitable afternoon.

school chums, all through their
school life-and there are prob
ably a few stunts they did that
they wouldn't want published,

TOWN Board Has
Interesting Meeting

The Town Board met in regu-
lar session Monday evening with
Acting Mayor McFaddan in the
chair and all present except Ken
nedy.
A number of visitors were pre-
sent, being interested in the Raj
ston avenue sidewalk matter
that was known to be coming up.
Attorney Harry Davis Of Denver
came before the Board, repre-
senting j. F. White, Mrs. Carter
Williams and J. r. Champion,
whose property interests on that
street have been the bone of
contention ever since the town
of Arvada was Incorporated.
Mr.. Davis had been in Golden
looking up the records on the
dedication of this street and he
seemed to think that his clients
were perfectly secure in their
contentious and that the only
way to get the matter settled.
was to either put down the walks
on the lines already established,
or else for the Town to bring con-
demnation proceedings. In the
first instance the plan to lay the
walks on the lines as originally
indicated would cause jogs to be
made that would be an eyesore
to everyone and very unsatisfac-
tory as to practical use, and in
the second instance there will be
an expense attached to it which
might hamper the town at this
time. But the concensus Of op-
inion of the Board was to go a.
head and put in the walks on the
rest Of the Street and when this
was done, proceed to straighten
out the tangle by the best method
available. They say this trouble
has been dragging along for
twelve years and there should be
some kind of settlement made,
as it is unquestionably retarding
the development Of the street and
is a detriment to the property
owners in general.
Mr.. Davis contends that the
county commissioners having es-
tablishcd the road % years ago,
and it having been used that long
without successful interference
that the statute Of limitations
has run and that now it cannot
be changed without condemna-
ton proceedings which would
mean that White, Williams and
Champion be paid an appraised
value for the land occupied by
them and claimed to be a part of
the street by the Town, and also
pay them damages as TO he
residue of their property.
His contention was that as the
records show that the road was
established by the county com
missioners and fenced by them
that the fence line indicated
the boundaries of the road and
that the property lines were es-
tablished by the same method
and the houses built and walks
built in accordance, the bound
aries would stand in a court Of
equity. Mr.. Campbell, however,
took exceptions to this and claim
ed that the road was supposed
TO DC Sixty leet VIDE, or thirty
feet wide, Or thirty feet on either
side Of the given stakes and that
the fencing Of the road was not
necessarily the boundary line.
Nevertheless, both sides are
obstinate and determined to push
the matter to a hna. adjustment,
which seems the proper thing to
do in the interest oil .he town S
progress.
The Board does not want to
injure anyone and believe that
to proceed in the interest of the
majority Of the property owners
on the street is the feasible

LOCAL SIFTINGS

Agent Banks had a narrow es-
cape from losing one of his eyes
Monday. He was working over
the telegraph desk and while
reaching down for something he
struck the point of one Of the
spindles with his eye lid. A
slight scratch on the lid was all
the damage done, but had it been
half an inch lower, there can be
no doubt as to the serious con-
sequences.
Fred Felch and wife Of Frazer,
Colo, have been visiting friends
in ArVada this week. Mr.. Felch
formerly lived here, but is now
in business in Frazer, Just over
the Divide on the Moiratt road.
He is county commissioner of
Grand county and also agent for
the Ford automobile. He and
his wife came over in their car,
and encountered six inches of
snow on the range. They took
the precaution to have a team of
horses follow them to the top in
case they might get in trouble,
but they came through without
the slightest difficulty, thanks
to Mr.. Ford.
H. B. Burton left Monday for
his home in Salt Lake City after
weeks visit with his brother,
H. S. Burton.
j. H. Bawden and family left
Tuesday morning for Central
City, where they will live in the
future. Mr.. Bawden is miner
by occupation and he undertook
ranching, but became dissatis-
fled with the simple life and de
cided to sell out and go back to
his first love. Mr.. Bawden and
family have made many friends
in this community who will wish
them success in Central City.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Nelson of
Marshalltown, Iowa, were guests
Of Mr.. and Mrs. UlIery and Mr..
and Mrs. James over Saturday
and Sunday. They left Monday
for Los. Angeles, Calf, where
Mr.. Nelson has a position as
stereotyper on the Los Angeles
Times. Mrs. Nelson is a niece Of
the Mcsdames UIlery and James
and is bride Of week.

What made Freddie Welsh champion
lightweight boxer of England?
Vegetables!
Welsh says so himself thus agreeing
with the KOlehr1ainen boys-the fastest
long distance runners in America-that
meat is harmful to the development OF
an athlete.
On the evening after he defeated
Matt Wells, thus regaining the light
weight title, Welsh addressed the g.
600 A. d. club in London. He talked
on his favorite theme-eating And
ne said that while a, vegetarian diet
might not be good for some, IL had
ma de him a boxing champion.
I am a vegetarian" he said, "be-
cause l have found that / derived the
most benefit from such diet We all
know that ones food has everything to
do with our physical condition, and IL
is needless for me to tell you that my
whole success in life depends upon the
condition in which I keep my body.
Last night as | eft the ring after
Tegaining my title I was asked how I
did it. I answered in a single word.
vegetables And I told the truth, but
I did not tell the whole story. I am
going to tell il to you now, and in tell
ing II l am going to make a confession.
