Montrose – In connection with the Armistice Day celebration a beautiful Tiffany glass window was consecrated in St. Paul’s Episcopal church. The widow is a memorial gift from Mrs. W. A. Lathrop and her daughter Mrs. L. M. Thompson, in memory of William Arthur Lathrop. The window has one opening, of gothic design, with the figure of Christ portrayed standing with right arm raised, and clad in a long robe which falls from His shoulders in heavy folds. The window was designed and made at the Ecclesiastical Department of the Tiffany studios of New York City.

Mr. Barnowsky’s head came in contact with the pole and he was instantly killed. After coming back on the street Yaskutalis’ car hit the rear end of a Buick, being driven north by John Petrus. The car was badly damaged, but neither Petrus nor those in his car were seriously injured. Barnowsky was born in Poland in 1869 and 36 years ago he came to Forest City.

Taylor’s Band of Montrose - The band will give concerts in Springville and Fairdale in the immediate future and is meeting with splendid receptions wherever it appears. [The band was organized by Maurice Taylor and featured his brothers. Mr. Taylor organized the Montrose H. S. band in 1927, but not having a college degree he was listed on the payroll as a janitor. Being aware that there was no simple way to teach band methods he started publishing, in 1939, the “Easy Steps to the Band” series, which grew and is still used in schools throughout the United States. A former student, Richard Mackey, who played French horn in the Boston Symphony, believed that half the brass and winds section learned to play from the books. Mr. Taylor also organized the popular Massed Band Concerts. In 1935 he brought 604 players to Montrose, which drew an estimated audience of 12,000 people.] Information was found on line where you are invited to read more: “Maurice D. Taylor Memorial Music Scholarship.”

Humane Society – The Society has two requests to make, both of which seem entirely reasonable. The first is that people having large animals—horses or cattle—to be put out of the way, shall phone the sheriff, the agent, or any officer of the Society, rather than to bring the animal to the shelter. Obviously, large animals, where the matter of taking care of the body has to be taken into consideration, cannot be disposed of at the shelter. They have to be disposed of where they can be most easily buried. So a phone call is to be preferred to having the animals disposed of at the shelter. The second request is to those people who drive up to the shelter and throw unwanted animals into the yard and drive off. A record is kept of all the cats and dogs taken there, where they come from and what is done with them, whether placed in homes or destroyed. There is no charge whatever for doing this work, so there is no excuse for throwing animals into the yard and running.
