Community CLUB !
VERY ACTIVE NOW
Many roblems Being
Handled for Good
Of the District.

A most enthusiastic meeting of
the Arvada Community Club was
held Monday evening. The attend
ance was not large but every one
present participated in the discus
sion of subjects of vital interest to
the town and community.
The meeting was presided over by
P. o. Clark. president of the organ
ixatton, ably assisted by ]. M. Price,
the secretary.
Senator Church introduced his
guest. Mr.. Adams, representative of
the Yeoman lodge who is here organ
tzing Yeoman homestead that Arv-
ada may as Yeoman community
welcome and entertain the supreme
officers of the organization when
they come here in a few weeks to
pass upon the ACCESSIBILITY of buying
the Church ranch with views to i'm
proving it and establishing their
national home. !
Mr.. Adams is not using Ayadat :
opportunity of securing the home as
leverage to organize the lodge
here. But it goes without saying
that If we had good strong order
in Arvada the highest officers of the
organization would feel more at
home among fraternal brothers and
sisters than among strangers and the
brotherly feeling created by joining
their order would Of course show
the proper spirit Of cooperation and
assist those people in deciding to
locate their home near Arvada.
President Clark on behalf Of the
Community Club assured the Yeo-
man representative that the organ
izstion was willing to cooperate with
hiA In any. way. ---"'-'-'- -''---''-'
c. v. jackson, one Of Avada's
citizens who is employed in Denver.
spoke about the tramway PROPOSE
ton. He said that it was most no.
ticeable that with the service the
tramway has been giving and the
way they have increased the rates
that there are very few people en-
ployed in Denver, making their resi-
dence here now as compared with
the days when the tramway was
more inclined to give Arvada a bet
ter deal. He said the increased fare
means q milestone around Arvada' 5
neck. People employed in Denver
can live cheaper and better in Arv-
ada than they can elsewhere and are
entitled to satisfactory car service
at reasonable prices. It was sug-
gested that If the tramwav would
pay taxes on the valuation they gave
the public utilities commission in
asking for the rate increase the
roads Of Jefferson county would be
fixed up so we could walk to Denver
cheaper than we could ride on the
tramway. The committee consist
ing Of Messrs. White. Graves, Davis
and jackson will continue to make
an effort to get better service and
lower rates. They will seek the co.
operation of the Golden Commercial
Club in the matter.
Mayor Russell reported that TIL
town board had been dealing with
the landscape artist who had made
some plans for identifying the town
and adjacent territory.
He said this man would come on
and address the Community Club
ard discuss his plans at future
