BUSINESS AND PLEASURE.
George Johnson Speaks Goods Words
 For Arizonans to Fasteners.

George Johnson, proprietor or The Toggery here, returned yesterday morning from a trip of several days to Los Angeles, and went aboard the battleship Minnesota. and was shown the powerful mechanism of the fight ing ship. He did not forget to ad- vertise Arizona and her wonderful re- cOurces on his way enroute to the coast and distributed a large number of pamphlets recently issued by the Mesa chamber of commerce, and spoke good word for his home town when ever the opportunity presented itself. Several tourists with whom he came in contact became very much inter ested. and declared their intention of paying this section of the Salt river valley a visit on their return to the east. Literature concerning Arizona is evidently very much in demand and it is self evident that eastern farmres and capitalists are looking toward the southwest for new fields of action. In several instances MT. Johnson says that persons who were strangers. on seeing that he had printed matter with him concerning the valley made re- quests for it. Thus his supply was soon exhausted, and he states that he could have easily disposed of ten times the amount had he been able to carry it with him.
 In this connection it may truthfully be said that this is another evidence Of the vast amount of good which can be accomplished through the sending of the hOmeseekers' edition of The Re publican to friends and acquaintances in the east. for there are a great many in that section of the country who are only waiting for definite information concerning the possibilities in the great southwest, and particularly this portion of it, to come and take up their permanent homes here.
 Mir. Johnson thoroughly enjoyed his trip and the festivities attending the coming of the naval fleet. and also the hospitality of the Californians, but is glad to be home again.

ity so common to amateur perform ances. On the contrary, every one was not only perfectly familiar with his or
 her lines but displayed absolute ease and freedom and there was a total ab- sence of stage fright. Taken as a whole the production was an eminently satisfactory one in every respect. It was evident from it's length that the preparation of the opera required a great deal of effort and hard work but the complete satisfaction of the au- dience as evidenced by its frequent applause, was regarded by those who participated as sufficient compensa- tion for the energy expended in the preparation and production of the opera.
 The story of the play is probably So well known that it does not require repetition. Miles Standish. the doughty captain, who was brave in battle but lacked the courage to tell the object of his affections of his love, was splen didly represented by Curt w. Miller. John Alden, to whom the captain in trusted the mission of winning Pris- cilla for him. was taken by Prof. John StOu III d IildAiutl. MISS l%tui Schmidt played the titular role of Priscilla in charming and com pletely satisfying way. Naturally much of the slight plot of the story revolved about these three characters and it would have been difficult to have made better selections for the three parts William Bradford as gov ernOr of New Plymouth was ably talk en bv J. Oscar Mullen. Mir. Mullen full filled the requirement of the part ex- ceptionally well and his commanding figure was exactly what was expected of one playing the part of the gov ernor Resignation. Miss Vera Buck; Barbara. Miss Jean Quinn; Faith, Miss Gladys Larson. and Prudence, Miss Mae Ziegler, were well selected fo- their respected parts. They had op- portunity for frequent appearance on the stage to good advantage in solo. trio and quartette numbers. Most of the comedy of the opera was supplied by Maurice Blome in the character of Hatebad Higgins. the agent of the good ship Mayf1ower. MT. Blome was and filled it to the utmost satisfaction. HIS NOCdi NOTk NdS SIJitlluiu anu us duet with Resignation was one of the features of the performance. necessi- tating an encore before the audience would be satisfied. Squanto. reform ed Indian was taken by Pat Mahoney. Pat made a first rate Indian though his part required little more than ire ouent appearance on the stage. If space permitted much more might be be said respecting the merits to the above mentioned Each was good and

MESA
THE MAKING OF MESA.

The Mesa Chamber of Commerce, after a more or less desultory career, has at last made a decided resolve to commence on an iextensive publicity campaign. The directors. while they have ever been considered live wires in their respective professions. are to unite in making Mesa. They have talk en up a couole of notches in their belts and spat on their hands with the intention of making hay while the sun shines. But all credit is not due the directors; the business men have been very liberal and have contributed something more substantial than ordi- nary conversation to the publicity fund.
 A little booklet was sent out last fall telling of the section around Mesa, playing up some of the resources which have given the place wide rep utation and otherwise advertising the Salt river valley. The result has more than surprised the chamber of com merce. Letters have been coming in every day asking for more literature and definite information concerning the place. So great has the interest become that a redoubled effort will be put forth during the summer months in getting out magazine articles, news paper articles, and other literature. which will set forth the merits Of Mesa as they really are. One of the features of the work will be the cor respondence. It is generally believed that a letter sent east now would not have a good effect The Mesa cham Der of commerce believe otherwise. They figure that the average home seeker does not pull up stakes in week and look for location but rather an eastern homeseeker would mean that advertising which takes root on d neastern homeseeker would mean that he would land in Mesa next win ter or fall At that time he would be in shape to know just what he could do-
 In order to best promote the adver- Using campaign. the directors of the chamber of commerce have employed Charles F. Jones, who until short time ago was identified with the Ari- zona Land company. He has rad con- siderable experience in the newspaper and magazine field and is in a posi- tion to carry on the work assigned him in a cerditable manner.

TEMPE
THE OPERA "PRIScILLA."
A Highly creditable Performance at
 the Normal Friday Evening.

It would be hard to imagine bet ter pleased audience than that which witnessed the production of Priscilla or "The Pilgrims Proxy at the Nor nal auditorium Friday evening. The vast auditorium was not only packed but standing room from which point the stage might be seen to even a fair advantage was at a premium. Nearly five hundred people were in attend ance and Phoenix and Mesa were well represented. Governor and Mrs. J. H. Kibbey and a number of the members of the faculty of the Arizona School Of Music were present from Phoenix and spent the night here.
 The curtain went up promptly on time and for nearly three hours the audience was treated to one pleasure following another. The play went off with snap and vim and so continued throughout the entire length of the performance. There were no breaks" or moments of hesitation or uncertain

carried his or her part in a highly
 capable manner. The chorus was as
 necessary to the finished production of the opera as any of the more prom inent parts. The young ladies and young gentlemen composing it were with a single exception. Normal stu dents. Their work was characterized by the same features that stood out prominent in the whole production that is to say a careful consideration of the most minute detail-all of which added greatly to the success of the event.
 In mentioning those who were large ly responsible for the evenings success it is only fair to give credit to those who were not on the stage at the time of the performance but whose assist ance was most necessary. Miss Fan nie Brown at the piano assited by two VioliniStS and a cornetist from Phoe- nix supplied excellent music. Prof. George served in the capacity of stage throughout the preparation of the opera and the pleasing way in which il was staged reflected credit upon him. The music of course was under the direction of Prof. Johnston ana there are others who in one and another way lent their aid to the hap py result of the effort.
 It has been suggested that "Pris- ella" was entirely too good a play to be permitted to pass with a single per formance. Mrs. Christy of the Arizona School of Music who was present sug egsted that the opera be put on at the School of Music and there is no doubt but that it would be accorded a hearty welcome in Mesa

Macdonald has had q number of cartoons in The Republican where his work has always possessed a high class merit which places him in line for something farther along.
 It might be well to say right here that Mesa appreciated the space and display in the homeseekers' edition of The Republican. It is about the only fair deal which has been accorded this place at the hands of an outside ad- vertising medium for a long time.
