The Travelling Art Exhibit

The EISon Art Exhibit of Bos-
ton, Mass, was given in the
high school building last week,
March Z, 8, 9th.
The collection of pictures are
photographers of the great mas
terpleces or the world. Many of
the originals of these pictures
have been destroyed in the pres
ent European war.
Many people came to see the
pictures and took great interest
IN studying "a number of them.
This company gave two prize
pictures to the rooms selling the
most tickets or raising the most
money. The fifth grade won the
first prize, the picture being
The Coming of the White
Man, " and the sixth grade won
second prize. The Helping
Hand" The fifth grade raised
about $l5 and the sixth about
Sl3. 80.
The money raised by the eXhi-
bit Is to be used in purchasing
pictures from this company for
the various rooms of the school.
"A short program was given on
Wednesday evening, and on
Thursday evening the Aryada
band furnished the music.
We wish to thank the citizens
for being so ready to help out ip'
this matter and all those who
took part IN the program, and
the Arvada band for giving US
an evening.
The net proceeds will be about
%GO.O co.. Expenses about 81. 90.
We think this very good returns
for our efforts.
We viii hayc enough money to
purchase at least one pictdrc for
each room.

Sidewalk Case Be-
fore Town Board

The Arvada Town Board held
its regular meetinw Monday
night and transacted the towns
business.
Mayor A. L. Davis was in the
chair and Trustees Evans. Camp
bell, Gorich and Simms We're
present. Williams and Sanderson
We're absent. Much regret was
expressed because of Trustee
Williams absence being on ac-
count of his recent operation and
much pleasure was also express
on seeing Trustee Gorich in his
usual place, apparently as well
as ever. and changed in appear
ance only by a growth of ''alfal-
ia" as Trustee Campbell called
it.
The board passed an ordinance
fixing the appropriations for the
year which is as follows:

Library Notes.

The new reading room was
well received. 1t was first used
for the story telling hour after
which it afforded a quiet place to
read the latest issues of several
papers and magazines which
were kindly loaned for Saturday
only.
Miss Faith Greene will conduct
the story hour at 3 O'Clock in
stead Of $3.50.
Library patrons are getting a
little careless regarding the re-
turn of books. The library dis
likes to impose the fine but all
books must be returned or re
newed at the expiration OF two
weeks or the town will soon
be minus a library.

700 from the State Highwag
Commission. This was decided
Tuesday of last week. OF this
amount $50, 600 will 90 towards

expended with the State High
way fund. The North Denver.
Golden road, Jefferson Avenue,
will receive Sc, 900; the Denver

The petition of the County
Commissioners to make Wads-
worth Avenue a secondary road
was turned down as were all
such petitions.
The Commission will meet in
June to consider petitions for
State highways.
Judging from the amount of
money spent on 3Sth Avenue and
its results So, 600 will scarcely be
enough to make a first class
highway, it would seem to a man
on the outside looking in. How
ever, Every little bit added to
what you've got, makes u little
bit more and we're thankful,
even for small favors.

Mr.. Mason, whose house is on
Grant Street, applied for water
and steps were taken to provide
the same if possible.
The board also appointed three
judges of election to act in case
town election is held. They
are Squire Welsh, VIM. Light
land A. j. Miller.
1t required a look at the
records TO determine what men,
bers of the board go out this
spring, and it was found that
North Evanf finishes a two-year
term, j. A. Gorich a one year
term and Rev. Sanderson COM
Ipletes vacancy term. This
leaves three trustees and a may
or to elect, if an election is held,
or else to hold over by common
consent.
The meeting of citizens next
Tuesday evening in Bank hall
will decide this matter. All Of
these gentlemen have proved
themselves to be worthy of the
confidence of the people.
A rather important matter
which occupied the greater part
of the evening was brought up
by Attorney Harry Davis. attor.
ney for the plaintiffs in the
Ralston Avenue sidewalk case.
Mr.. Davis said he had come
merely to offer the board an op.
portunity to settle this matter
out Of court, and thus eliminate
a great deal of hard feelings a.
mong the neighbors Of the town.
He was sure that the Supreme
Court had practically decided
the case IN the plaintiffs favor
and read portion OF the Su.
preme Courts decision in re.
handing the case back to the
District CoJrt. Mr.. Davis WAS
certain that the Supreme Court
would sustain the plaintiffs in
their claim that the fence had
established the width of the
street and the lines and he was
making this offer to save the
town further expense and
trouble.
The board, however, did not
see its way clear to accept Mr..
Davis suggestion because the
settlement would mean the pur-
chase of the strip Of ground in
question from the plaintiffs
while the caIance of the property
Owners had given theirs ana
would be entitled To come in and
demand pay for theirs. MIR.
Campbell was certain that an
amicable settlement could not be
reached in this way and was al
50 quite satisfied that il the case
is tired on the evidence chat 1t
would not go against the town.
1t is unfortunate that condi.
tons are as they are and that
the matter could not have been
adjusted before the legal pro-
ceedings began.

Carl Schultz pleased the Bap-
fist congregation greatly Sunday
evening by giving Sacred con:
cert on his Diamond Disc Edi-
son photograph. 1t is a rare
treat TO hear the best singers Of
the country in this way and it.
would not be surprising TO hear
of the monograph finding its
way into the many churches TO
supplement the music.
Some very miscellaneous or else
purely dcyllsh boys committed a
depreciation last Sunday evening
which justllics inyesti cation by
the authorities. According TO
/. II. Krusc who was going a
long Wadsworth Avenue be-
tween Mr.. Jacobs place and the
Dreydcn place he walked into
barbcd wire which had been
strung across the road from a
tree TO "A fence post. II could
not be seen on account Of the
darkness and it struck Mr..
KruBc on the face and scratched
one side Of i. quite a little. 1t
was most fortunate that it was
discovered by Il man walking, as
had il been people in an automo-
bile or other vehicle someone
might have been killed or severe
" injured. 1t seems strange
that anyone would do such Il
thing merely for a joke, unless
it might have been done by u
group Of thoughtless boys.
