Mr.. Tomlinson, ali officer of the Ma,
tional Livestock association was pres
ent and made an interesting address
on the general condition of the livs
stock business.
R. G. Alfred, the Garfield county ag.

on the bull question, declaring that the
demand of the hour was better bulls

LoA1sSUsHQuART OF MONEY

Among the patriotic citizens of whom
Glenwood Springs may well be proud
Gertrude Lillard of 1918 Bennett ave
nue., daughter of car foreman Lillard
of the Denver and Rio Grande railroad
deserves prominent place.
When Gertrude was tiny baby he,
parents secured a savings bank fol
her. A good many pennies found the,
way into this bank before she under
stood what it all meant. Ever since
she can remember, however, she has
been carefully saving pennies, nickles
and dimes and an occasional auarte,
to buy piano.
After a year or two the bank was
filed to overflowing and pint Mason
jar was substituted Soon quart 10,
became necessary, then the quart ia,
would not hold more and it looked As
though the piano would arrive befort
the thrifty child was large enough &c
make very much use of it.
About this time Gertrude learned
that the government was in need Of
money to carry on the war. She heard
much of Y. NJ. C. A. work, Red Cross
relief, liberty loan bonds and Y. w. c
A. work. She decided that Liberty
loan bond looked pretty good and the
purchase of piano was indefinitely
postponed.
1t was great day in the life of this
five year old patriotess when, on Mon
day she marched into the bank to pur
chase the biggest bond she could buy
for quart of money. An official count
showed that the jar contained fifty
dollars and four cents. A fifty dollar
bond was secured and the four cents
helped to send package to a soldier
who had no one to send him a Christ

one else. Look out wilhelm, we'v

SCHOOL HAPPENINGS

The literary program given on
last Friday evening at the opera
house by the high school liter.
ary society was an unusually
good one. Every person in the
audience felt we'll repaid for be-
ing present. Many worthy
comments were extended. If
our efforts during the past two
years are able to show such
good results, it is worth while to
keep at it. Compliments to all
who contributed towards the
success of this program.
Be sure to be on hand on Fri
day evening at 8;15 sharp to
hear the Glee Clubs and Com
ique Orchestra. We have had
rumors which portend some
thing worth hearing. This will
be one of the best things of the
year, if you love music. Ad-
mission, 25 and 35 cents. Don't
miss it.
There was quite an influx of
pupils on last Monday morning.
Jacob Coos entered the first
grade, Edna Jacobs and Minnie

Jacobs the sixth grade, and Ora

The eighth grade held meet
ing on Tuesday evening after
school for the purpose of class
organization. The following Of
fcers were elected: President.
Frank Fuller; vice president,
Melvin Reynolds; secretary
treasurer, Catherine Ray. The
object of this organization was in
preparation for an eighth grade
commencement. Helen Turn
bull, Dorothy Lathrop, Irene
Clutter, and Melvin Reynolds
wer6 appointed as an executive
committee.
At a boys meeting on Mon.
day evening it was voted to pre-
pare for a field meet this spring.
This is an excellent move as it
gives everybody in school a
chance to take part. We can't
work a good team in one year or
in two, but, if persisted in for
few years, our chances are very
good for a state showing.
