A Birthday Surprise.

The home of C. G. Shoop, north
Of town was the scene of a de
lightful party last Thursday ev-
ening when a party of fourteen
gathered in about eight o'clock
to remind Mr.. Shoop Of his 3Sth
birthday and that they, too, had
remembered it. The party com
prised the members of the Fancy
Work club Of which Mrs. Shoop
is a member, which organization
has been in existence for about
thirteen years.
The ladies conceived the uniq-
ue idea Of all dressing in child
hoob costumes and this furnished
a great deal Of mirth for the oc-
caSion.
Refreshments were served at
at the proper time and when the
party adjourned to their homes
at a late hour they wished their
hosts many such happy events.

have property to sell would boost
the selling value. Again, if you
have taxes to pay, it would make
the chances of getting the money
with which to pay them just that
much better.
Such problems must be solved
in all well organized commercial
centers, and the quicker the bet
ter. These outside concerns are
no benefit to anyone but them
selves and if they insist on COM
ing in and taking money out of
this town it is only fair that they
should be required to pay some
thing toward the up-keep of our
streets which they use.
Every dollar that is kept in
circulation in Arvada means
something to every man who has
his living to make here or who
owns foot of property here.
There is a story told of a west
ern town which one winter had
only a five dollar bill in circula-
ton and all went we'll until it
happened that one man got hold
Of the five dollar note and went
to California. This busted up
the whole business organization
because this bill had paid the
debt of every man in town by
being passed around, but when
it was withdrawn from that local
ity it left busted community. "
This of cousse is an exaggerated
story, but it illustrates the prin-
ciple of money circulation.

Wadsworth Avenue Popular

Wadsworth avenue seemed to
be favorite course for joy riders
last Sunday. The work now in
progress to make this thorough
fare passable and inviting to the
travelling public, will no doubt
bring many sightseers this way
during the summer. Forty
fourth avenue is a direct line
from Denver to Golden and is
particularly popular with the
autoists because of it's shady
lane" through Berkeley and now
that Wadsworth avenue is to be
graveled and put in shape and
the new road paralelling the c.
& S railroad will soon be in con-
dition, it will be preferable be-
cause of the elevation, which af-
fords a much better view Of the
mountains and the intervening
valleys. This will put Arvada on
the map of the auto guide and is
bound to bring some material
benefit by way Of advertisement,
which in turn is sure to bring

ideal spot in which to make their

The merchants are complaining
of peddler's wagons being allow
ed to come out here from Denver
and sell their wares from the
wagon, in direct competition with
them. They claim that the town
board should exact license from
the peddlers, who pay no rents,
no taxes for keeping up the
streets and instead of leaving
money in the town and county
take it out of both and there is
positively no chance of a penny
of it returning. The Enterprise
believes that the merchants are
right in their contention, In
looking the matter squarely in
the face, is it right or is it even
good business policy to patronize
an institution that takes away
every dollar from circulation in
the community and gives nothing
in return? Perhaps the same
article just as good or even bet
ter can be had from local mer-
chants. Even though you should
get a premium with it you can
rest assured that the premium
has been we'll paid for when you
get it, and your money is gone
never to return.
On the other hand if that
money had been spent right here
in Arvada it would have done its
share in maintaining a substan-
tial business status which, if you
have property to rent would
boost the rental value, and if you

seem to be very pronounced un-
til about the time the poles open
ed and all at once from every
where people began to swarm in
and at closing there were 29G
votes cast.
After the votes were counted
the usual mass meeting was held
to discuss plans for the schools
of the district for the ensuing
year and quite a heated discus
sion was had over the ADVISABLE
ty Of purchasing the Reno lots
south of and adjoining the high
school building for a play ground.
Messrs. Recht, Campbell and
Mrs. Nicholson led the argument
in favor Of the purchase while
Messrs. Nolan, Murchison and
Brown led the opposition. At
! the close Of the discussion it was
put to a vote Of the house and a
majority vote favored the pm-
chase provided the lots could be
had ut a reasonable figure.
The matter Of distributing the
schools in the future was also
taken up but no definite plan wss
adopted.
The running expense for the
year just closed were reported
to be about equal to the income.
It was found that about $500 was
yet outstanding in warrants and

stricken mother.
Mr.. Cook visited the cemetery
and purchased a lot and ordered
the body removed thither. He
did not feel financially able, hav-
ing a family and his mother to
support, to take the remains back
home, and he was also afraid on
account Of his mothers feeble
health.
He stated that his brother had
been an expert diamond and
jewellery salesman and had left
home six years ago, at which
time he had seemed despondent
and cared little for life.
He was not married and was
seldom seen in the company of
women. He had failed to give

had even asked help from his
brother.

Would Be Burglars Captured

About 1:30 Saturday afternoon
Officer Newcomb and Alderman
Murchison rounded up two boys
aged II and 10 years, named
Mckinney and Smith who had
escaped Thursday evening from
the State Industrial Reform
school south of Golden.
The boys were first noticed by
Rufus Belgin and Sam Green,
walking along the Moffat tracks.
When accosted they showed fight
and each carried a club with
which they kept their adversar-
les at bay until Marshall New
comb arrived. When they saw he
was an officer they threw away
their clubs and surrendered and
were taken back to Golden.
1t was found that they had
burglarized the home of Mrs.
Weston near the crossing Of the
Leyden car line and Arapahoe
street and also had looted the Of
flee of the Denver Shale Brick
Company.
Marshall Newcomb was on the
lookout for the youngsters, hav-
ing had a telephone message from
the Reformatory Thursday even
ing, telling of their escape at a.
bout 7:30, when the boys were
turning into their cells. One
grabbed the other by the arm and
they rushed down a flight Of
stairs and scaled the fence and
were gone.
