are now occupants of our county bas-
tile.
Joe Kissell, who filled up on the
40-rod squirrel juice that is dispensed
altogether too freely in the Silt neigh

Two to Five on Embezz|ement CHARGE
Preferred by Farmers Life
Insurance Company
We ENTERS PLEA OF GUILTY

At Grand Junction last Monday af.
ternoon the curtain was rung down on
Walter Loupe, the fresh young insur-
ance man, who by some was thought
to have lost his life in the Colorado
river on the night of October % when
his car plunged over the bank about
three miles above Glenwood.
Standing before Judge Logan of the
district court, Loupe entered plea
of guilty to charge of embezzlement
preferred against him by his former
employer, The Farmers Life Insur-
ance company, and received sentence
of from two to five years in the state
penitentiary at Canon City. Loupe
made plea for lenieney in behalf of
his family, but Judge Logan reminded
him that he was the author of the pre-
dicament in which his family found
themselves, and tpld him he should
have been more solicitous in the past
of the welfare of his family, in which
event he probably would not have COM
NOTED the crime for which he must
now pay the penalty which the law
provides
The Glenwood post., 1923-12-20

So far as was in his power, Loupe
made restitution to the company he
had defrauded, by assigning to them
some notes due him on insurance pre-
miums, and TO his wife, upon whom
now devolves the responsibility of
caring for six small children, he gave
orders for all commissions due him on
insurance written, as well. as on COM
missions due on renewals, besides
transferring to her his equity in their
home. Mrs. Loupe was in the court
room by the side of her husband when
sentence was pronounced.
Loupe was taken through Glenwood
on train No. Monday evening, in
charge of Undersheriff Clark of Mesa
county, Harry Fuller, the insurance
detective of Chocago who had charge
of the case, and j. p. McInroy, super
intendent of agencies for the Farmers
Life company, and was landed in the
penitentiary just about 4s hours from
the time the officers landed him in
Grand Junction, from Ypsilanti, Mich
igaH, where he was captured last week.

chairs were utilized in seating the
overflow, and several people were
turned away, while several, unable to
find seats, stood during the whole of

The program was exceptionally we'll
arranged, the numbers were of a high
class, and the chorus of twenty five
members, giving the closest heed to
the direction of their leader, fairly
surpassed themselves in the rendition
of the many excellent numbers. There
was plenty of snap and variety to tho
program, and yet enough Of the heavJ
and dignified numbers 10 furnish real
enjoyment tos the most critical of
music lovers.
The people composing the large audi.

will offering which will be used as a
payment on the new pipe organ recent.

IN name OF CHILDREN

Among all the many attractions of
which Colorado so proudly and deserv-

splendid educational system by and
through which the boys and girls of
this great commonwealth are educated
and trained for citizenship. The edu-
cational department of our state is now
administered by one who is optimistic
as to the future of education in Colo
rado. Mrs. Bradford is blessed with
a wonderful vision, as witness the fol-
lowing beautiful letter just received
by Mrs Gretta Pottenger, county su-
perintendent of schools, and designated
For the Superintendents and Teachers
of Colorado
My dear Superintendent and Co-work-
ers:-
The Chalice of the Year is filled
once more with the draught of conse-
Grafton and achievement. Let us drink
it together in the name of the children
OF COLORADO.
May Christmas for them and for us
mean a world brought closer to the
ideal of the Christ-Child and the
Christ-Life.
For them and for us, may each day
of the new year witness growth in
comprehension of, and devotion to, the
Spirit of Colorado and the Spirit of
America.
May they and we help to "make
all things new." May the best of the
Old be born again in the best of the
New. May nineteen hundred twenty
three transmit TO nineteen hundred
twenty-four that which will add to the
grace and the glory of the New Year.
Fraternally,
MARY G. G. BRADFORD,

A Social Hour
The clock in the assembly struck
twelve and then there was rush and
a hubbub of voices in the hall At the
bottom of the stairs to prevent the
rush to the lunch room were Messrs.
Keena and Richardson. The lunch was
very delicious, especially the pickles
for all pickle lovers. When leaving the
lunch room there was Helen Blaine
and her helper selling ice cream cones,
and this was temptation that one
could not pass by There was de-
lSnuIul time In the music room where
the girls spent the noon hour in dane
ing. The boys went to the gym and
played games. School was called when
Mr.. Keena rang the assembly bell and
all settled down to the old routine of
studying. Chile day was success and
was enjoyed by all.
Skating Party
Many pupils of the G. G. b. s.
missed good time when they were not
over at the duck pond last Friday
night. There was skating party and
of course plenty of fun for everyone.
Many spills Were taken, due to ''crack-
ing the whip" and one unlucky per-
son claims to have lost a tooth when
he tried to knock Walter Deacon down.
