The Glenwood post., 1917-04-07

d FROM authentic sources 1t Is learned
that the bonds for the reorganization
of the Coorado-Yule Marble Co., are
about to be underwritten in Los
! Angeles by one party. Only a few
minor details are to be settled in con-
nection with the wording of the bonds.
/ Several of the officers left for that
point to close the deal. If this is done
successfully, this splendid property will
soon be in full operation again.
The Scottish Rites Masons of Glen
wood enjoyed Maundy Thursday

The first meeting in April Of the
Glenwood Reading club was held at the
residence of Mrs. J. W. Ritter in North
Glenwood. Answers to roll call for
this month will be quotations from
Ralph Waldo Emerson. The following
papers were presented: "El Paso
and Teller Counties" by Mrs. M. J..
Mayes. "Painters and sculptors," by
Mrs. R. P. Malaby, and readings from
Emerson by Mrs. W. 8. Parkison. Re-
freshments and a pleasant social time
were in order after the literary session.
The Post is pleased to note that the
Roaring Fork Stockgrowers' associa-
ton, at their annual meeting at Car
bondale last Saturday, retained as sec
retary-treasurer, s. Price Sloss, who
for so many years has proved so effic.
lent in that position. We distinctly
remember some of the days of the past,
when he found that he had very diff
ficult position to fill. But he was il
every sense equal to the emergency and
his determination to be absolutely fair
toward all, made him many friends
who have remained true to him to this
day.
Owing to this being Holy week the
Parent Teachers association will meet
| Tuesday, April 10, in the eighth grade
room instead of the grade school gym
nasium. This change is made because
of the inability to hear the speakers
in the gymnasium. The meeting will
convene promptly at 7:45 and cloae
at O'Clock sharp. DR.. Mccartney
will address the meeting on the care
of the teeth. There will also be dis
cussion of the question, "How May
We Retain the Confidence of Chill
dren9" An opportunity will be given
all those who have not done so to pay
their annual dues.
The boys garden clubs will be To-
Gated on Mr.. Morton's land near the
bah ground. This land is being given
+, to the boys for their use this season,
by Mr.. Morton, and the city has prom
ised water to be used for the boys
gardens. The ground is now being
plowed, free of charge, by Mr.. Craw-
ford with his tractor Case engine. With
the inevitable shortage of food stufs,
the growing Of vegetables is very com
mendable and as many as can should
make an effort to assist in this move
ment, and as many grown-ups as can
should secure plot Of ground from
J. W. Bell and not only grow their
own vegetables, but give their ow,
support to the boys in their work.
