learning of his new plans, but will
regret to know that they are not to
return to Grand Junction.
DR.. Parker is a physician and sur

splendid practice in Pueblo we have
no doubt.

WOULD DEFINE
PARK POWERS

A definition of the powers of the
Park board and the commissioner of
the civic beauty is sought in an ordi-
nance which Commissioner Holmburg
is preparing for early introduction.
The ordinance will relate to parks
and besides establishing certain reg
ulations for the Fairgrounds will
specify the commissioner as the last
authority on matters pertaining to
the public lots.
"The charter is conflicting on this
point" say Mr.. Holmburg. 1T de-
fines my duties as having full pow
er to manage the parks while the
park commission is vested with the
powers given it under state statutes
which places them in full charge of
the same work My ordinance will
limit the work of the park commits
sion to that of advisory board
Mr.. Holmburg will not be able to
carry out many of his plans this year
because his appropriation was re-
duced 1900 last year. He will,
however, put a fountain in Chill
dren's park at Fourth and Hill and
will make a number of other i'm
provements in other parks.
w. w. Parce, who prepared the
plans for all the city parks, has just
accepted a position as head nursery
man and landscape architect with
the Roland Park Company in Balti-
more, according to news received to-
day by Commissioner Holmburg.
The commissioner finds that the
other members of the council look
with favor on his forestry ordinance,
It provides for the uniformity OF
tree planting in years to come, but
prevents any of the present trees be-
ing taken out without the specific
instruction of the forestry board. =
1t also provides later on for the
employment of city forester when
the work reaches point when
such an employe is necessary.

Although many Of our fashions are

A BRIGHT LITTLE WOMAN SAVES
48c ON A SMALL PURCHASE.

A day or two ago there came
to the Mail Order Department of
The Fair Store a small order from
bright little woman out in Utah. She
had clipped from a big catalog of
some Chicago house an illustration
of the goods she desired. The price
quoted in the Chicago catalog was
s3.f5 and postage. 33c; total. s3.4S.
The article cost her SO postpaid from
The Fair Store-saving 4Sc--a saw
ing of 16 per cent on a small pur-
chase.
That she was bright little wom-
an is evidenced by the facts that she
has been trading at The Fair Store
many years; that she realized the
picture of inferior goods in a Chica-
go catalog made just as good an ap-
pearance on paper as dependable
goods nearer home would make; she
knew there was saving of nearly
two weeks time in filling her order;
and a saving of 16 per cent on her
money spent in Grand Junction.
Her money had 16 per cent great
er purchasing power at home than if
it had been sent to Chicago

Miss Anne Morgan, the famous vaca-

Do not wriggle the shoulders.
Do not shake the hips.
Do not twist the body.
Do not flounce the elbows.
Do not pump the arms.
Do not hop-glide instead.
Avoid low, fantastic and acrobatic
dips.
Stand far enough away from each
other to allow free movement of the
body in order to dance gracefully and
comfortably.
Remember you are at social
gathering and not at a gymnasium
Drop the turkey trot, the grizzly
bear, the lame duck, the bunny hug,

SPRAYING FOR MOTH.
Pomona. Jan. 16. 19l

Pomona, Jan. l6, 1914.
Editor Sentinel:
1t is quite task to spray for the
codling moth and you want to feel
that it has been thorough. The sue
cessful fruit grower is restless about
spraying time, if he has no sprayer
of his own, and the grower with ten
or more acres ought to own one. We
have county entomologist whose
duty it is to at least advise us when
to spray. | believe all the best
growers appreciate the help, but in
order to be successful every tree
should be sprayed in every orchard.
If the tree beareth good fruit it is
worth while to spray it, and II it
beareth evil fruit it ought to be
pruned two feet under the ground.
For four years | have been disturbed
about the fruit trees in run down
orchards, and fruit trees within the
city limits of Grand Junction. There
are fruit trees in both county and
city which are full grown and bear
more or less fruit and which are
breeding places for the orchards
which are carefully sprayed. The
owners think probably that there are
but few worms anyway, and will do
but little harm, and possibly will re-
turn a few boxes of fruit. There
may be a crab apple tree near the
kitchen doorfor shade; there may be
a full crop of fruit and two full crops
of worms.
1t is enhancing to handle crop
free from worms, but how can the
good growers be successful when the
fruit on these scattering trees are
not sprayed at all? 1t ought to be
the duty of the county agent to see
that all trees and orchards are
either sprayed or "pruned."

The Other Side of 1t.

To the Editor of Topeka State journal:
Kindly permit me to make an expia-
nation concerning part OF your report
Of the meeting of the anti-white slave
congress- In his criticism of the Kan
sas Children's Home society. Dean
Kaye made a mfsStatement of facts,
which 1 am sure was unintentiOnal on
his part because he lacked information.
Permit to say concerning the
baby found in the Mckinney home that
when the mother and babe were in the
hospital our society was requested to
take the baby. The mother surren-
dered it to the society regularly but
on the same day We were informed that
the mother had a venereal disease and
that there was danger OF injection in
the child. AS our society is organized
only to take placeable children and find
them homes. the child was refused and
ordered by the county physician to be
returned to the mother. This child was
at the hospital and never in our possess
sion.
The Mckinney family came with an
urgent request from the mother to let
them have the baby. They agreed with
the mother to assume all responsibility
for It and its future. They had letters
Of Recommendation from prominent
business men of Topeka with them.
Consent was given as FAR as the So
ciety was concerned to their taking the
child which they obtained from the
hospital. Later a nominal consent was
given to its adoption because OF the
absence of the mother and at that time
everything seemed all right Since then
the disease has developed in the child
and the county physician was caring
for it, The officers were ordered to
place it in our receiving home where
we then had eight little children. The
following day the mistake was admit
ted and it was taken to the hospital
. The criticism on the society because
of its being in this home 10 unjust and
unfounded because the society from the
first refused to assume any response
bility / simply write this statement
because of the fact that our society
brides itself on its carefulnees in Sc
Letting homes for its children. Mis-
takes will occur and families are rec
commended by reputable neighbors to
be all right that afterward prove un-
suitable although good At the time. In
such cases we invariably take the child
and find another home for IT,
It II to be regretted that persons In
tefested In one benevolent society should
take occasion to injure the Influence OF
another society that 10 honestly doing its
seems to me that rather We should unite
in encouraging and helping one anothes
in order that the greatest Kood may b
done. Our society will be glad to be in
formed at any time by anyone finding
that q child - in . home that is insult
able and pledges its immediate attention
to the case. Very respectfully yours,
d. r. 8HIRK.
