Alderman Sharon Leads Movement to

Bids Too High.
Mayor Matlock last night completed
bis list of appointments when he
named John Heathman city street
commissioner, Geary Kimbrell city
engineer to succeed himself, and
the proposed new slaughter house be
thrown out and that the city under
take the work itself in order to give
employment to the many idle men
in the city. Councilman Sharon, who
is chairman of the sewer committee,
declared the work could be done
cheaper by the city than If the lower
of the two bids were accepted and that
the city would at the same time be
furnishing assistance to' many unem
ployed men.
The proposition met with favor
from the mayor and the' majority of
the councilmen, but Councilman Dyer,
while he favored the eployment of
white labor, declared himself oppos
ed to rejecting the bids after they had
been advertised for and the contrac
tors had gone to the trouble of fix
ing up estimates. The discussion was
finally closed temporarily when May
or Matlock referred the bids to the
Councilmen Kirkpatrlck, Sharon and
Cole as a city hall committee, to pur- proper committee with inatmioHnn. tn

where tb children should be taught
;sex responsibilities, the Grand Jum
jtion school board has Arranged for a
) course of instruction in th public
schools by Dr. Lyman Sperry of Qber-
lin, Ohio.
1 The action was taken at the In
stance of the Ministerial Alliance,
J that organization starting the move
!xllent uPn the request of the Rev.
'F. C. H!!hi F?ctor ' the Episcopal
j church. . . . .
j Mr. Smith had started to arrange
for the instruction of the boys of his
j own church, but, believing that a more
' capable instructor could be secured
' by co-operation with the Other church-
es, presented the matter to the Min
isterial Alliance. The idea won im
' mediate approval as a possible solu
tion of the many evils responsible to
K day . tot a continued increase in the
ruin of the young girls.
1 It was then decided to ask the co
operation of the school hoard, and
that body agreed to bear the brunt
land expense of tho educational school,
; The lectures will be delivered to stu-
( dents of all ages, as well as to high
school pupils, the boys and girls be
ing segregated for that purpose. The
series of lectures will continue for a
week and probably longer.
The board already had approved j
plan for medical lectures on youth j
subjects, not only in Grand Junction
bat throughout the county, but this
is the first attempt to educate he
youth of the city as to the functions
of sex.
'This is simply a practical attempt
to instruct our children in knowledge
which they lack' said Mr. Smith.
My idea is that the children are en
titled to the knowledge of the vital
Current Literature Club.
The regu.ar meeting of the Current
Literature club will be held tomorrow
afternoon at the home of Mrs. C. F.
Colesworthy.

COMES TO PEIIDLETOII
. With reference to the entertain
ment given by the Schubert company,
which appears at the Oregon theater
Tuesday evening, January 16, under
the auspices of St. Pary's church, the
Montana Daily Record of Helena, has
the following to say:
The entertainment given by the
Schubert company last night merited
the patronage of all the music lovers
of Helena. Seldom has it been the
good fortune to hear such charming
artists. ',
The ladies' quartette sang in perfect
ensemble and with the utmost finish.
The soloists. Miss Corder, soprano,
Mrs. Purcell, contralto, Mr. Powell,
violinist, and the fascinating reader,
Miss Weatherlngton were enthusias
tically received.-
Miss Corder in the aria from Trav
iata showed herself in possession of a
voice of rare quality, splendid train
ing and thoroughly artistic interpreta
tion. Mrs. Purcell's contralto solo
was delivered in excellent taste and
was thoroughly enjoyed.
Seldom does one hear a reader who
is so Absolutely natural and unaffect
ed as Miss Weatherlngton. These two
qualities seem to be seldom attained
by the majority of readers.
The violinist, Mr. Thomas V. Pur
cell, Is nothing less than virtuoso. His
artistry was characterized principally1
by a big sympathetic tone, a brilliant '
confident technic, and a careful at
tention to the minutest detail, which'
last is a mark of genius. 1
The program was selected 'with a'
view to pleasing both lovers of light
er music as well as the trained must
clans.
