 E NOW READY For Board of Trade Banquet
 Mag 4th
 TICKETS ARE NOW On SALE May Be Secured At Differ ent Business Houses At One Dollar Each and the Banquet Alone is Guaran- teed to Be Worth Price
TICKETS ARE NOW ON SALE

Arrangements for the big board of
 trade banquet which will take place
 two weeks from last night are rap
 idly being completed and the tickets
 will be placed on sale tomorrow morn
 ing at the following places of busi-
 ness: The South Side Realty com
 pany's office. Laird X Dimes and
 Harmer's drug stores, Birchett's gro- cery store. the Arizona Mercantile company's store. Nielsen & Co.'S of
 flee, Wells Fargo express office and
 R A. Windes office The sale of tickets will close on the 10th of May
 for it is expected that by that time all who expect to attend will have supplied themselves with tickets. It is of course necessary for those who will serve the banquet to know d few days in advance just how many will be at it. By closing the sale of tick cts on that date. four days time will be allowed for the preparation of the affair
 IL is suggested that every one who can possibly attend purchase a ticket at once from some one of the places above mentioned. This will make il easier for the promoters of the ban quet. for if the tickets are not pur- chased freely and cheerfully. it will become necessary to make house to house canvass with them. for they must be sold. It is thought, how ever. that the demand will be good, for assurance is given that the menu alone will be well worth the price. Then in addition to that feature. there will be a program of after dinner speeches and music. While the pUr- chase of a ticket is in no way do- nation. since the buyer is assured of getting full value received. there Is no objection to any one purchasing as many tickets as he may care to, regardless of the number he may ac- tually use. The tickets are worth Sl per. and if after the conclusion of the banquet any one can prove to the satisfaction of the two members of the board who have been appointed to have charge of the undertaking that the money was lily invested. the price of the ticket will be refunded
 What the board of trade especially wants is large and representative gathering or 1tT1pe ptOplt dl tiit banquet. There are frequent gath erings of lodge and church members. but it is not often that the people of Tempe. regardless of church or lodge affiliations. get together and spend an evening in social way. While the banquet will in one respect be a social affair. there is serious busi- ness proposition back of It. The board has no expectation of making a cent on the banquet. Rather It will be we'll pleased to break even The main object of the whole affair is to get the people of this town together. and in a social. informal, but still serious way talk over a good many things that are of mutual interest and which will tend toward the up-. building and the betterment of the town and community.
 Remember again. the banquet will be held in the Casa Loma dining room on May 14th. Saturday evening. at 9 o'clock. It will be served by Messrs. Helm X Bell. who now have charge of the dining room. | and every citizen of the town and surrounding the town is ex- pected to buy at least two tickets, | one for himself and one for his wife. 1 and as many more as the condition of his pocketbook may warrant.
