DISCUSSED at
Luncheon

The subjects Of . Home Coming
celebration in honor Of the returned
soldiers and sailors and that Of bass
ball team for Julesburg during ~
coming season were the chief TOPICS
of discussion at the noon n-day lunch
con held by the business men at the
Brown Hotel Wednesday.
There was considerable discussion
as to the date which would be most
appropriate for the holding Of the
Home Coming" celebration. July
4th was suggested by some as the
most appropriate time for this big
event. Others thought perhaps Il
would be better to have the occasion
in the early part Of September, at
which time the county fair and cele-
bration could be combined.
After considerable discussion Of tie
matter, it was deemed best that the
president appoint = committee TO n
terview all Of the business men indi-
vidually and ascertain the sentiment
prevailing as to most suitable time
for the staging Of the celebration in
our city. II was the unanimous
opinion Of the gathering at Wednes-
days luncheon that the celebration
be held and the only problem left to
decide was the date.
The committee appointed to inter-
view our citizens in regard TO the
"Home Coming" celebration was n.
o. Virgins, Geo. Thompson and P. r.
Mcdowell. The committe was in
structed to make report at next
Wednesdays gathering
After some discussion relative TO
the organization of a baseball team
a committee composed Of Roy Stew
enson, C. F. Schroeder and Guy Smell
ser was appointed to interview the
business men and ascertain what sup
port could be received. This COM
mittee was instructed to make a re-
port at next Wednesdays luncheon. -
The matter Of public parking
grounds was discussed yesterday and
it was the unanimous opinion of all
present that way and means should
be devised for the establishment Of
grounds for tourists. A
composed of E. N. Kelsey,
z. N. Cleveland and c. s. Deily were
appointed to investigate the matter.
Mayor Austin. informed the gath
ering that the matters of caring for
the railroad park and also that Of an
dock was being taken up
with the railroad officials by tho
Town Council.
Don't forget next Wednesdays
luncheon at the Brown Hotel at 1890.
You are urged to be present.

LETTER FROM ITALY

Mrs. J. C. Penny of this city re.
ceived the following communication
from her son Ray Penny, who is in
the u s. Navy:
Vienna, Italy. March 6, 1919.
Dear Folks:-Just boarded the De-
stroyer Louis and going aboard an
other in the morning, and go don't
know where, some of US to Constan-
tinople and the rest to Austrian ports.
We came here by rail from Brest,
a trip thatoold-timers say they have
never had chance to take. It
took seven days and laid over sever
al hours in several big cities and took
hikes around town. We saw more
American soldiers than French SOL
diers in France. We stopped in LIE
Mans. Tours. Bourges. Marsilles. Mi
Ian. Nice and Monte Carlo There
was wonderful scenery along the SOU
thern shores of France.
We had eight in bur compartments
on the train and lot Of provisions al
lowed to US. Believe me a hot meal
tasted good to us tonight As soon as
am located permanently will try to
cable you. Above all don't worry if
you don't get mail often as it so fire.
Guently gets lost and remember that
the Navy takes better care of our
health than we would take out side.
Don't expect to be home very soon.
