Tho Arvada Community Club had
its regular monthly meeting Mon
day evening, which was well attend-
cd and much interest was shown
The meeting was called to orler
by w. P. Smith, the retiring presi-
dent, who called upon president Il.
l.. Newton, elect, to officiate, who
refused to takc the chair, having in
sisted that he IVES unable to accept
the office, owing to his time be ny
taken up with his postal duties. His
resignation was finally accepted ar
A. L. Davis was duly elected by d
unanimous vote, in his absence. A
committee composed of Walter P.
Smith, Wesley Staley and w. W.
Moberly was appointed to notify Mr..
Davis Of his election.
The retiring secretary. A. J.
Recht read the minutes of the prev
ious meeting and also made report
showing the largest membership the
club has ever had. The finances ure
ALSO in good shape. Several matters
discussed, among them the dayligh
|aving proposition. The Club wen
on record ~ favring the standard
time for the business houses of Ar
vada, in Difference to the farmers.
but Prof. Wheatlcy announced that
the School Board had found it ne
essary to change to the new time on
account of the tramway cars chang
ing time. 1t is realized that there
will be more or less confusion, b.
as Arvada gets its trade from the
farmer largely, It was thought tns
his interests should have precedent
over all others. The Town Board
met Saturday night to decide on tho
matter, but only four members Of
the board were present. and II was
deferred until next meeting night,
and there 10 q possibility the new
time will be adopted. However. Il
is generally, wirhsd that Denver will
revoke the ordinance and return to
the standard time. and there Is
possibility that this may be done.
