Teachers Have an
Interesting Meeting

The County Teachers Associa'
tion held in Arvada High school
last Saturday was well attended
in spite of the fact that it was q
stormy day.
About rs teachers were in at
tendance, and the program was
interesting and carried out we'll.
Mention Of several of the num-
bers would be in order, but the
discussion of the educational
code for Colorado brought out
many phases of that subject
worth the consideration, not only
of teachers but of parents as well.
The last number on the program
was a lecture by DR.. Lough of
the University of Denver, on AL
ice Browns recent book, The
Prisoner
This criticism or review of the
book was a masterful presenta-
ton of our modern notions of
freedom. This lecture was
worth more than many we pay a
gOOdly sum to hear.
The directors of the party had
a separate meeting in the after
noon and discussed several sub
jects vital to the schools. 1t is to
be regretted that more of the
school directors of the county
could not attend these meetings.

of his welfare since the serious
illness which befell him last fall,
which took him to the hospital

from the first operation was slow

no means strong.
He worked about a month but
was again stricken about three

on Saturday February 10th. He
never fully rallied from the shock
and passed away just a week
after tho operation, which proved
a great deal more serious than at
first anticipated.
Altho Mr.. Goodwin was a pa
tient sufferer thru it all provi-
dence was kind at last and he
fell into a deep sleep and quietly
and peacefully his soul took its
flight.

member of the Berkeley Chris

constant attendant with his wife
and daughter Elizabeth He was
also a member of the Masonic
lodge and the order of Yeomen,

surance policy.

he was one. The Arvada Quar-
tet furnished the music and a

High School Scores
Z A New Triumph

Our school had the honor tc
sing the Columbine song, the pro.
posed Colorado state song, before
a joint session Of the legisla-
ture in the room Of the house of
representatives on Wednesday
evening Of this week. DR.. Finn
the composer Of this song, asked
that our school sing this song at
the above place and time. We
are proud of the honor and glad
of the opportunity.
Several other songs and sing
ers were in competition, but as
Arvada began to sing the audi
ence responded so enthusiastic
ally that "Columbine's" claim
to first place as a ttate song was
unanimously sustained and thus
Arvada scored another triumph.
The Denver papers gave US a
very creditable mention for
which we are grateful.
