are said to be operating among the

That the French are prepared to take
drastic measures to prevent sabotage is
evident from the order notifying the
Ruhr Germans that all persons found
damaging railroad property will be SEN

lines have been instructed to shoot to
kill whenever trespassers fail to halt

The Town Board
Stops Sunday Shows

The Arvada town board has de-
creed that We shall not have a NOV
ing picture show in Arvada on Sun
days. A few weeks ago the board
was asked by Mr.. Pruess to grant
him that permission. He was told
to get petition from the people of
the town. He secured about $50
signers, and the board granted him
permission to operate. He gave a
show last Sunday. Church people
took the matter Up. Rev. Mr.. Cole
Of the Baptist church circulated a
petition against the show, and when
it was presented the board rescinded
its action. Mr.. Pruess, who has the
building leased from A. L. Davis and
is operating the show, tells US it is
not a paying proposition for him.
This has been the report from others
who have tried to operate a picture
show in Arvada. Local people do
not patronizc it. Mr.. Pruess talks
some of storing his outfit until he
can find a town where there is a
good opening for show Of this sort.

Community Club
Holds a Meeting

Only few people attended the
meeting of the Arvada Community
club, held Monday night. Interest
seems to be dying in this once useful
organization.
C. H. Goellert, field representative
of the Rocky Mountain Motorists,
was present and gave talk about
the plans of his organization to mark
the highways of the Rocky mountain
region. The idea Is to place sub
stantial and attractive steel markers
on all roads generally travelled by
the tourists in their cross-country
trips and to divert travel which is
headed for the coast so it will use
north and south roads and see the
sights Of Colorado and neighboring
states before going on to California.
These markers are received through
membership. Local members are
Newt Olson, J. T. Kennedy, R. l..
Ashton, Pliny o. Clark and F. A..
Mahannah.
Newt Olson has been nominated
for president of the Community club,
but declines to serve. Many people
feel that Mr.. Olson is the one man
in Arvada who can pull the organiza-
tion together and increase the men,
bership and interest in the meetings
and the work to be done. However,
he feels that he can hardly do justice
to the place, on account of the per-
sonal attention he has to give to his
growing business.

VACATIONS AND HEALTH

In some parts of the country it is
thought necessary for the health au-
thorities to warn those departing on
vacations to guard their health.
This need has not been so impressive
in Maine. The reason is not far to
seek.
The assistant director of public
health in Philadelphia says that $50
of the typhoid cases reported in that
city in the fall are traceable to con-
tamipation encountered during the
vacation period. We assume few of
those are contracted in E1aine.
The advice he gives. if not SO
greatly needed here in Maine. is yet
worth considering. Make sure the
we'll or spring is in surroundings
free from contamination. that the
milk is handled by clean hands and
is from healthy cows, that the food
is properly cooked and wholesome.
Use restraint in eating. especially
fruits, and be sure those are sound.
Boil water or milk that there may be
any doubt about. See that the food is
not exposed to flies. While it is very
desirable that the vacationist shall
have opportunity for relaxation and
freedom from worry 1t does not fol-
low that he should seek all freedom
from care and common sense.
