CANON HAS ANOTHER
OCTOBER SNOWSTORM

Canon City and the surrounding
country was visited by tie second OF
the seasons snowstorms Monday
night and some damaCe was done by
il in breaking down shade and fruit
trees. The snow was unusually wet
and heavy and clung to everything it
fell upon with great tenacity. AS but
few of the trees had shed their leaves
the snow accumulated on them until
in many cases they were unable to
sustain the weight and their branches
gave way under the burden to which
they were subjected MANY of the
maple, elm and cottonwood shade
trees along the streets suffered severe
ly and in some of the orchards on
Lincoln Park, as well as in Fruit
mere. Park Center and Orchard Park,
the fruit trees were considerably
damaged. Shrubs of all kinds, in
cluding rose bushes and other SINH
lar forms of vegetation, were bent to
the ground by TIE weight of the snow.
The streets this morning were full
of broken limbs and branches that
fell from overhanging trees during
the previous night as a result of the
to some extent by il. There was
about six inches of precipitation.
Two such heavy snowfalls as we
have had here during the last ten
days are exceptional in this locality
for October. The rapidity with
which the snow has melted today is
for an early restoration
of fine weather.

BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY OF
MRS. TERRY CELEBRATED

The members of the Ladies Bible
class of the Sunday School of the
First Methodist church, together with
their teacher, T. ]. Williams, and
pastor, Rev. Guy e. Kolkel, wife and
son, Philip, were invited Monday
evening by Mrs. r. A. Cooley TO a
turkey dinner at her home, 421 Grif-
fin avenue, South Canon. to help cele-
brate the siXty-Seventh birthday an
niversary of her mother, Mrs. Mary
]. Terry.
The children and grandchildren had
secreted siXty-seven pieces of money
about Mrs. Terry's home for her to
find during the morning while the
daughters were preparing the dinner
for the guests in the evening. The
quest was an interesting one and oc-
cupied all of Mrs. Terry's time and
afforded Mrs. Cooley and her assist
ants an opportunity to make all ar,
rangements for the dinner unobserv-
ed by the guest of honor. The tables
were placed in the form of a "T'
the initial letter in Mrs. Terry S
name, and its decorations were roses
and place cards to match.
When the guests had arrived Mrs.
Terry was summoned and given "a
delightful surprise. 1t is hardly nee.
essary to say that the occasion was
greatly enjoyed by all. both in its
sociability and the splendid hospital
ity provided by the hostess and her
family. Altho it stormed without,
hearts were warm within and good
cheer reigned supreme. When the
company left for home it was with
the wish that Mrs. Terry might be
permitted to spend many more happy
birthday anniversaries with her chill
dren and grandchildIe en- about her.
Those present at the dinner were
Mr.. md Mrs. Thos. ]. Williams, Rev.
and Mrs. Guy Konkle and son, Philip.
