HE Alumni Association Of the yir-
GINA Polytechnic Institute Of
Lynn. Mass. recently met and
drafted resolutions, requesting
the Virginia Legislature to locate at
the virginia. Polytechnic Institute. the
Safe geological survey to be establish
ed under the provision of the Rison
bill. The resolution stated that work
along this line had for some years
been carried on at the Virginia Poly
technic Institute, and that it was only
right and proper to establish there
the permanent survey which would
materially improve the course at that
institution. It further stated that the
Virginia Polytechnic Institute has been
one of the leading engineering colleges
of the South, and has donegas much for
the young men of this State as any
institution within its borders. and that
III the permanent survey is establish
ed at the University it would practi-
cally amount to abolishing the geo.

Blacks burg school. It was claimed that
the university should be looked to for
its law, medical and library courses,
and not for the scientific branches.

be a big crowd Of the valley people go

ADJUSTMENTS


Last night witnessed the last per-
Torrance of THE Christian" and now
Phoenix has the opportunity of judg-
ing what has proven to be the strong
est aggregation of players ever seen
here, in a comedy THE Man From
Mexico" The play is not a new one
to us, but has furnished many laughs
for our citizens, and there is little
doubt, judging from the sample Of
their ability furnished us in The
Christian" that those attending will
not only laugh, but be convulsed with
merriment.
without doubt 1.-The Man From
Mexico" is the funniest comedy ever
written for a fun loving public. Many
remarks and words of praise have been
bestowed upon the Raymond players
and they have deserved every one OF
them, and it is the duty of every
amusement loving citizen in the city
to boost and spend his extra change
with this talented company. Never
has such a company appeared here and
it is desirable to keep them here.
Judging from the good words heard
upon the street their stay will be in
definite. Mr.. Whitaker has brought
twenty people into Phoenix and they
express but one desire collectively and
individually, and that is to remain in
this city and become one of the per-
manent business institutions and add
their little toward the $4,000 pOpula-
ton we will have in 1915. 1.-The Ray
monds are not a fly by night concern
or a week stand show. Their smallest
record is twelve weeks in Bakersfield,
let the travelling companies bring along
their best. Our own company and the
one that Phoenix is fast becoming
proud of THE Raymonds" will hold
their own even with the higher priced
attractions. Let the pleasure seeker
take a refreshing car ride and enjoy
splendid performance where he will
not have his attention distracted by
being kept busy hopping his face for
as the doctor says avoid excitement
inside of closed buildings during this
