DELTA COUNTY WATER CASE
HEARD IN MoNTRosE SATURDAY

A Delta county case was up on Sat
urday, being an application for change
N the point of diversion of the Clough
and Wade water to Sweeney and Tur-
ner and the Minnesota canal. The
amount involved is 4.23 feet of water.
The application was opposed by the
Heiser Saddlery Co. Of Denver
through their attorney, A. X. Mack of
Denver, on the grounds of the conten-
ton that the change of diversion
would be damage to their holdings.
Judge Cavender was of the opinion
rat instead of being a detriment the
change would be more liable to be
benefit to the protestants and on this
theory granted the request to the ap-
plicants with the understanding that
after a trial of eighteen months II
the protestants could produce evid-
ence to prove that they were being
damaged that the case would be re-
opened for another hearing.-Mont-

Mother S Day at the
Churches last Sunday

Those who attended the Mother s
day exercises at the Methodist church
last Sunday were given a rare treat
the memory OF which will last many
months. Special music was furnished
by Miss Cecil Pearl Buckingham, Mr..
Tucker and Mr. Fleetwood. in a trio
and by Mr.. Tucker in a splendid rem
dition of the beautiful song, Rock of
Ages" Not the least of the inspiring
service was the address by the Rev
erend Charles s. Setter, pastor of the
First Methodist church of Grand juno
ton. He spoke of the debt each man
and woman owes TO his or her mother
for the hardships she has endured, the
noble sacrifices she has made for the
comfort and happiness of her family.
He spoke of the necessity of every
young boy and girl obeying his par
ent's commands. even though il did
not seem the proper thing to them,
lest remorse overcome them in later
years when repentance was too late.
He spoke of the need of segregating
the undesirable class of men. as
society has the so-called undesirable
class of women. and stated that when
this was done there would be far less
of undesirable women. His sermon
was replete with good thoughts and
was listened TO with rapt attention.
Most of those in attendance wore car
nations. white one for the mother
who had passed on-a colored one for
the mother who was spared.
At the Baptist church the morning
services were appropriate TO the oc-
casion-an able sermon to the mothers
and special music. When the ser
vices were concluded each of the one
hundred and forty mothers present
was presented with carnations fur
nished by the young mems class OF
the Sunday school. These services
were attended by a large and appre-
ciative audience.
Services at the Presbyterian and
other churches of the city We're also
in keeping with the occasion and the
day observed in general as one not
to be forgotten in the future.

Parents of each of the bays on
trial were present at the hearing and
made statements as TO their conduct
at home and abroad as near as could
be determined and from the mother
OF the Burns lad it appears that he
has been hard to handle at times,
that he would stay out OF school and
was a cigarette smoker. In fact the
boy admitted these things himself.
The other boys had always been Of
great help to their parents and this
was the first trouble for them of a
serious nature. The parents thought
they could be handled at home, and
thus a parole was granted. There
was no attempt at denial of the
charges preferred by any one of the
prisoners. All admitted their guilt,
and we're willing TO accept the conse-
quences.
