our city. Most Of our citizens went
to Georgetown, Denver or out on
fishing trip. The small boy and
the big FIRE cracker were in evil
4depce as a matter of course, but
no serious accidents were reported
A small blaze was started on the
mountain side above the residence
of J. P. Ruth but no damage was
done more than to excite some of
the nearby residents. A large
number of autos loaded with
pleasure seekers passed through
and around about the city during
the day. The morning tr a i $

in the park and on the mountain
