Birthday Celebration {
At Long Eeach
CrOO late for last Wcek)

Col. S. J. Shoop was seventy
six years old February II, and
his sister, Mrs. Mclean selected
a few of his Arvada friends now
wintering in Long Beach and in
vited them to come and join him
at dinner.
The invitation was gladly ac-
cepted by Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Barth, Mrs. J. B. Johns, Mrs.
John Young and Mr.. and Mrs.
J. F. White.
Mrs. Barth aided the hostess
in getting up an elaborate din
ner.
During this time there were
not only good things to eat, but
good things said, so that sorrow
and sadness would fly away and
only happiness and joy fill the
heart. The day passed only too
swiftly.
Their many friends in Arvada
will be glad to know that the
Colonel and his sister are better
than they have been for many
years.
The 10th milestone was passed
joyfully and the many friends
Of the host showered him with
congratulations and mementoes
of their high esteem and love,
and trusted he would live long
enough to enjoy many more an
niversaries.

Fremont Ball a Success.

The masque balla at Fremont
Grange hall last Saturday night
was grand success in every
way. A jolly crowd was in at
tendance and all enjoyed the oc-
casion to the fullest extent.
Prizes were awarded for the
most unique costumes represent
ting various nationalities, and
Walter Greene dressed as an
Indian, and his sister, Mrs.
kountZ as a squaw, took first
prize. Earl Walker as a Jew,
and Mrs. Lester Williams took
first prize as comic characters.
AT the proper hour a supper was
served much to the satisfaction
Of the dancers. The receipts of
the evening were very satisfac-
tory to the committee composed
of J. p. Giltner, Henry Trail and
Mr. Carpenter who compile ted
their terms of service with $500
to their credit for the years
work. This is splendid show
ing and if their successors ac-
compish as much it should be
very satisfactory to the organi-

the luncheon Commissioners
Truelsen, Keel and johnson, who

WadSworth Avenue road. J. c..
Nolan with F. c. Murchison's S
car volunteered his services and
some OF the citizens, including
Dr.. Shoop accompanied the Com
missioners and Road OverSeer

there the Commissioners wentito

ing and the Muhlenbrock hill
and the grade near DR.. Shoop's
place. The Muhlenbrock's hill
is the hardest nut to crack, as
the Juchem Ditch crosses the
road right on the brow of the
hill, and it is a problem as to
how to lower the hill without af-
fecting the ditch.
Legal points are to be disposed
of before anything definite can
be accomplished.
At any rate, when the surfac-
ing of Wadsworth Avenue is
completed Arvada will have at
least one main artery north and
south that will be Of great COM
mercial advantage as it will tap
the Broomfeld country. How
ever this will not be the only
one, as West Ralston Avenue is
also being graveled by the far
mers living along the road do
mating their money and the SER
vices and the townspeople also
coming to their assistance quite
literally.

Grangers and our people are
urged as many as can, to go up
and get their dinners and mingle

gram elsewhere in these columns.

Road Grave|ers
Had Good Dinner

Twenty five hungry men ate
to their hearts content Of the
tempting repast and the ladies
Were most highly complimented
for their skill in the culiendary
art, at the dinner served to the
road gravelers, in Grange hall
Friday. Right here the Enter
prise wishes also to praise them
for their strict economy, as the
dinner exhausted only about one
third of the fund collected.
The ladies directly responsible
for the dinner, who gave their
services and time. were Mrs, E.
l.. Newcomb, President, Mrs. f..
L. Foster, Vice-President. Mrs.
J. H. Nicholson, Secretary, Mes
danes j. S. Doughty, J. }. Web
Der, H. c. Fields, M. P. Smith
ana L. ;. Afford.
The ladies also wish special
mention made Of E. P. Smiths S
, services. Mr.. Smith, who is the
| janitor in charge of Grange hall,
was right on the job assisting
the ladies in every way possible.
They likewise wish to thank
Clear Creek Valley Grange for
the use of the hall and their
dishes.
Dinner was served promptly
on time and after the meal was
finished cigars were passed and
DR.. C. V. Shoop, who one OF
the committeeman who were ap-
pointed by the Arvada CONNER
cial Club on graveling Wads-
worth, acted as POSTMASTER and
called on the County Commits
sioners to explain to those pres
ent why it was necessary to call
for donations in road work.
James Truelsen gave a very
comprehensive explanation of
the operations of the board in
aiming to divide the road i'm
provements as equitably as pos
sible over the entire county. He
explained that the board had
recently completed a chart sys-
TEN, dividing the county into
districts so that they would be
taken care of hereafter more in
proportion to their assessed val
uations. For instance each dis
trict is entitled to 80 per cent of
the tax assessment, the other 81
per cent going into the general
fund. He stated that the two
mill levy this year. II the money
was all collected, would bring
| $42, 900 for the road fund.
He considered the criticisms of
the people and particularly of
/ the Enterprise very unjust to
/ the commissioners.
, Commissioner johnson explain
ed the condition by making COM
parisons with Boulder and Adams
Counties, showing that Boulder
County had about 500 miles OF
roads and taxable valuations of
twice the amount Of Jefferson
County, which has 1000 miles of
roads. Adams County was in
much the same condition. After

Commercial Club
Has Good Meeting

The regular meeting of the
Arvada Commercial Club was
held last Monday night and a
fairly good attendance was had
and it looked as tho the wake"
Of a week ago had instilled new
life into the body.
President Juchem called the
meeting to order and a general
discussion OF roads and other To-
cal topics was had.
The graVsling of Wadsworth
Avenue was reported as progress
sing quite rapidly and the cut
ting down Of the Muhlenbrock
hill was a matter Of consider
able attention. All are anxious
that some steps be taken toward
moving the ditch that is the
chief obstruction, a little further
up the hill, so that the hill can
be cut down to an easier encline.
Mr.. Juchem is a prominent
stakeholder in the ditch and he
is willing and anxious that this
be done. A committee has been
attempting to get the necessary
signatures to have this done, of
the owners of the ditch. 1t is
believed that nearly all will sign
an agreement when they under
stand matters fully.
A report was made relative to
! the dinner given the gravel
haulers last Friday and it was
found that the dinner cost only
Sc. 80. thanks to the economical
management Of the ladies Of the
w. c. T. U., and this left a bal,
ance of ST. 70 in the fund col.
/ lected from the business people
of the town. 1t was thought
best to appropriate this amount
to fixing up Wadsworth Avenue
where it has been so badly cut
/ up by the hauling from Cleal
/ Creek, and other places ncces,
sary.
A vote of thanks was rendered
the ladies' of the w. G.. y. u,
and the secretary was authorized
to send them a written acknow,
Judgement Of the same.
A general discussion followed
with reference to the future pur,
pose OF the Commercial Club and
the proposed plan of broadening
out and taking in the entire
community round about. A com,
mittee composed OF T. c. Hurst,
Wesley Staley and II. 6. Cannon
was appointed to originate some
plan and report at the next reg.
ular meeting.
a committee was also appoint
ed composed of w. w. Mobcrly,

ran which occurred at 4:3O Friday
afternoon, while not great sur
prise, was nevertheless a great
shock to the community in which
the Doctor and his family has
lived for the past five years.
He was taken i'll about four or
five weeks ago and it was soon
discovered that his chances for
recovery were indeed doubtful.
His daughter, Mrs. Russell,
whose home is in Portland, Ore
gon was sent for and arrived to
be at his bedside with her moth
er and adm mister to his comfort
in the last hours.
The deceased leaves besides

in early manhood, Clarence and
George, all of whom are deeply
devoted to each other and who
are crushed with grief in the
loss of devoted husband and
indulgent parent.
The funeral took place from
the family residence on Griffith
Lane, at 2 o'clock Sunday after
noon and was under the auspices
of the Masonic Order, about six
ty of which were in attendance
in the regalia of the order. Rev
Cooper, also a Mason. preached
the funeral service to a large
concourse of sorrowing friends,
who being unable to get into the
house, stood in the yard, Mr..
Cooper standing in the door.
Walter R. James, a brother Ma
son. sang two beautiful and ap-
propriate selections.
DR.. Clarence Fletcher Cochran
was born in Linder, Gennessee
county, Michigan. May %. 1850,
being a little less than &C years
old. He came of New England
stock, his parents being from
Boston. He was a graduate of
of the University of Michigan,
in both classics and medical
schools.
He came to Colorado and until
about five years ago was surgeon
of the Moffat road with head
quarters at Tolland. He had
Joined the Masonic order early
in life and had transferred his
demit to Arvada lodge in 1914.
He was a member of the M. E.
church, tho was not a member
of the local church. He was also
a member of Clear Creek Valley
Grange.
The greatest profusion of
choicest of flowers attested the
esteem and love in which he was
held.
Interment was made in Crown
Hill cemetery under the direc-
ton Of Burton & Chinn.

sympathy of this community in
their irreparible loss.

The tie is being put to the hard

them having been installed on
the fast freight track where sew
enty-fve long and fast freight
trains pass over them daily.
The block signal system is used
and the company officials want
to be sure that the steel tie will
not interfere with the electric
system before they adopt it.
Consequently the piece of track
along the watering system was
selected to see what effect if any
water would have on the insula-
ton where steel ties are used.
The fast trains scoop up the wa.
ter on the run and this gives
the track a bath each time, SC
so that it gives it the hardest
test possible. So far the test
has been thoroly satisfactory,

They Find 1t Better Than Internal Med
icines For Group and Cold
Troubles

In the South everyone uses Vick's
.vap-O-Rub Salve for all forms of cold
troubles. But when it was introduced
in st. Joseph, Mo-, for the first time,
last winter, the local druggists natu-
rally were skeptical. They did not
believe that Group could be relieved
in fifteen minutes just by rubbing
with Vap-O-Rub, or that colds com
monty went in one night. So ar
rangements were made to present a
number of ladies' with complimentary
jars of Vap-O-Rub on the condition
that they give it a thorough trial.
Here are the reports from these ladies':
Mrs. C. l. Haden, 1909 S. 18th St,
says-'Last winter 1 had a dreadful
bad cold on my lungs, with a tight
ebad cough. l rubbed Vap-O-Rub on
