There was a smaller attendance
ut yesterdays luncheon than the pre-
vious week, but the deficiency in at
tendance was fully made up by the
very interesting discussion held after
those present had partaken of the
sumptuous meal prepared by the
Brown Hotel dining room manage
ment.
President Frickel, in his usual eff
fective manner, opened the discussion
by giving . brief outline of the plans
formulated by the executive commit
tee Of the Julesburg Community Club
ut their business meeting held last
Friday evening in the directors room
Of the First National Bank.
Among other things the plans of
the committee incorporated the follow
ing subjects pertaining to the welfare
of Julesburg and community: 1t was
deemed a wise plan for the Julesburg
Community Club to prevail upon the
Town Council to use some means
whereby the City Park could be prop
erly taken care of during the summer
months, the result Of which would
give the visitors and those passing
through our city a favorable impress
sion Of Julesburg, and in addition to
this it would be the means Of further
ing the community's civic pride. Pres
ident Frickel announced that q COM
mittee had been appointed to take this
matter up with the Town Council.
Another plan was that of providing
q public rest room for visitors to
Julesburg, and q committee was ap-
pointed to confer with the Town
Council. This committee was also ip-
structed to take up the matter of the
street conditions in our city with the
council, as it was pointed out that
this was a very important need Of the
community pertaining to further pro-
gress of Julesburg.
The executive committee recon-
mended that each member of the
Julesburg Community Club be provid-
ed with membership cards and that
the membership fee be $500 during
the year 1919. The secretary was in
structed to secure membership.
The committee recommended that
the members Of the Julesburg Com
munity Club refer all peddlers and So
licitors to the Secretary, who would
refer them to a secret committee which
has been appointed to investigate them
and give their approval or disapprov-
al of their activities in the communi-
ty.
The committee recommended that
all members of tie Julesburg Commu-
nifty Club invite guests at various in
tervals to attend the weekly noon day
lumcheons. and that all persons and
visitors to Julesburg be made to feel
that they are cordially welcome to at
tend these occasions.
Following President Frickers report
Of the executive committee, John
Spells made a short talk, in which he
stated that while in Omaha recently
and in conversation with members Of
the Omaha Grain Exchange, that they
EXPRESSED the desire to pay Julesburg
and Sedgwick county 4 visit on tour
of inspection and sightseeing trip.
Mr.. Spells informed the gathering
that he desired to know what attitude
the Julesburg Community Club would
take in the matter Of entertaining
these gentlemen.
A motion was made and unanimous
ly carried that the Secretary be in
structed to invite the members Of the
Omaha Grain Exchange to Julesburg.
Plsns will be made for their entertain
nent while here and automobiles fur
nished to take them on q trip over the
territory.
Yesterdays gathering was very
interesting one and it was unfortunate
that there was not a larger attend
ance. It is hoped that next Wednes-
days luncheon will bring out larger
gathering. The meeting adjourned to
meet at the Brown Hotel next We'd
nesday at 1890 P. NJ, to which all are
invited.
