WILLIAMS SCHOOL NOTES

Our enrolment this month has reached 161, and the average daily attendance, no doubt, will he better than last month. The new pupils this week are Bert Brown and Louis Owens, from the Verde, and Lou Alta and Wiley Melton, from Las Vegas.
 With the aid of her pupils. Mrs. Kennedy decorated her room with colored drawings and evergreens and had appropriate Christmas exercises Friday afternoon. Miss Tefft and Miss Lava Sughrue also had pretty decorations, and the children of their rooms enjoyed Christmas trees on Friday after noon
 Miss Julia Sughrue's room pre- sented Charley Tilbury, our drum mer boy, with beautiful Christ mas present. There is no doubt but that every child in school appreciates Charley's services with the drum.
 J. s. Amundsen. the county superintendent of schools. spent the day with us last Monday and gave us many good words of cheer. He thinks we have improved much over last year, both in dicipline and interest in school work He was very favorable impressed with the work done in the primary room which reflects great credit on the teacher of that department.
 School closed yesterday afternoon for the Christmas holidays. The vacation will extend to Wednesday January 2nd. On this date w+ will all come together again with the high school in it's new building No doubt this will be appreciated by the high school pupils as they have had to occupy it'eonvenien' quarters heretofore. ~

After repeated efforts upon our part to learn the name of the brilliant writer who contributes Williams items to the Coconino Sun. we achieved success through an article published in the last issue of the Sun. in which it's loca correspondent wrote quite an amusing little piece of reading m Utter about our search for a Christmas present among pile of boxes in the rear of the NEWS office What surprised us most was that he could get off" such comica story because We diln't think there was joke in him. The story was SO well written that 1t has created the impression in our mind that the author Is man possessed oi exceptional journalistic ability, and while on the repnrtOrial staff of the Sun, we predict that the items he contributes will be the means of the Suns local circulation increasing in leaps and bounds But wonders never cease.

BUILDING OF RESERVOIRS
To Grazing Permittees:

To Grazing Permittees:
 The following letter has been re- ceived from the acting forester:
 ''In order to encourage the build ing of reservoirs for stock watering purposes where needed to secure the use of range, the forage cror lpon which would otherwise be wasted, you may approve applica ions for leasing and fencing areas not exceeding 40 acres for this purpose at an annual rental of 10 cents per acre.
 in,s privilege will be allowed nly to persons entitled to graz ock upon the forest reserve under ermit and for the building of reservoirs on portions of the range hey would be entitled to use for raging purposes. Care should be iaken to avoid monopoly in the use If the range. It must be under stood that the reservoir is the property of the United States, but me agreement may allow It's ex- lusive use by the person or persons building it for term not exceeding five years.'
 The above ruling only applies tn water develped on hitherto dry ground and does not permit the fencing of water already partially ,r wholly developed, and this office will allow the privilege only when It does not interfere with the rights of other permittees.

"A ROYAL SLAVE"

"A Royal Slave" one of the mosl elaborate and beautiful melodra matic productions on the road. was presented to very large audience at the opera house last Saturday night. The play was a most strik- ing production in many ways. It was unlike any other story. con taining an interesting theme ano presenting a pretty romance in :; manner which held the interest of the audience throughout the entire performance.
 H. E. Humphrey. who portrayec the part of Aguila. the slave, is a man of fine physique, possessing a rich, mellow voice, and handling the character in masterfu. manner.
 Harry Hoyt, the newspaper cor respondent. was breezy, humorous ready for fun, work, or any ole thing that came along. Harry is a good looking chap. good singer and as a clever comedian, could "make good" in any company or the road. He made decided hit
 Marie Van rassell, as Countess de Ora, won spontaneous outbursts of applause for her clever work.
 Raymond Binder, as Colonel Carlos Castello. gave strong pre- sentation of character which appealed to the audience and shows talent of superior quality.
 There was not an uninterestine character in the play. The stage settings were admirable and lack. ing in nothing. The company was an unusually strong one. and thost who witnessed the play did no have cause to regret It. We hope Gordon & Bonnet will favor u. with another of their great pro dactions in the near future.
