There was quite little discus sion

at an early date. B. D. Parker, chair.
man of the road committee stated that
the committee would appreciate sug-

ting results.
The matter Of permanent secre-
tary for the community club was dis

making short talks in favor of the
plan if the right kind of a man could
be secured. Upon motion seconded
and carried, the president was in

what the probable cost would be to
secure an experienced community club
secretary who would devote his en-
tire time to this work. The president

The proposition of holding the COM

arly and in the evening instead of the

be in the nature of dinner followed
by the business meeting.

day evenings gathering was the
splendid talk of Prof. Rowland of the
Sedgwick County High school. Prof.
Rowland in 4 pleasing manner dis
cussed the conditions Of the schools
and the value of high-class education
al facilities in the community. He
outlined the work that was being ac-
complished in the Sedgwick county
high school and suggested number
of Improvements necessary to keep
the school up to high standard. He
impressed upon all those present the
vital need Of the hearty cooperation
pf the business men and citizens Of the
community in the school work, and
at the close of his remarks there was
unanimous sentiment strong in IA
vor for Pref. Rowland and determi-
nation to assist in every way possible
in keeping our schools up to the very
highest standard, it being thoroughly
realized that our schools are one of
the most important factors in build
ing up the community.
It was near ten o'clock when t.
gathering adjourned to meet around
the festive table again Tuesday even
ing at 7:30, February 3rd. These
community gatherings are a great
thing for our enterprising little city
and every progressive citizen should
ret into this community boosting
game, and do their full share in max
ing Julesburg a bigger and better
place in which to live. The spirit of
fellowship among business men and
citizens goes long ways toward &C
complishing good results, and, it is
fine doin's to see the banker, the mer-
rhant, the doctor, the farmer and other
citizens following various life voca-
tions rub elbows round the festive
table and discuss matters pertaining
. the welfare Of the community in
which they are = part Of.
The Julesburg Community Club is
a very much active organization these
days and it is sincerely hoped that
the fire or enthusiasm will not be ex-
tinguished by little petty grievances.
Let's forget them fellows, and 60 to it
in earnest for a real town and COM
munity. Let's get our streets into
good condition so that they will be
source Of civic pride and there are
numerous other improvements which
can and will be made if the proper
,sget-together" methods are used. If

Julesburg Community Club and have

membership committee reports fifty
paid up members up to date. and there
should be twice that number.
