The Symphony Club
 Was Most Pleasing
Every Number of Varied Program
 Was Thoroughly Enjoyed.

What was undoubtedly one of the most pleasing musical entertainments ever given in Tempe was that pro vided by the Schubert Symphony club and Lady Quartet of Chicago at the Congregational church Saturday eve ming The only possible fault that might be found with the performance was in the length of the program and complaint there is hardly justifiable for it consisted of the usual numbers and the members of the club were most liberal in their responses to en- cores. Still. the audience would glad ly have remained as long again. Every number was most pleasing and the large audience that complete ly filled the church was very appre- ciative. It is not often that a coIu- pany of musicians are seen together who are possessed of so many accom- plishments and are as near perfect as possible in each and every one It would be out of the question to say which number of the varied program pleased most It is sufficient, per haps, to say that the program was se- lected with much care and each num- Der was thoroughly enjoyed.
 The members of the quartet are: Thomas Valentine Purcell. violinist; Leeta Corder. first soprano: Cecil Osik. second soprano: Anna Pearl Weatherington, first alto; Lovie Zert Purcell, second alto.
 So liberal were the members of the company in their responses to the de- mands of the audience that the fol- lowing program which was rendered represents only half of the evenings entertainment:

Mesa is Expanding
 Improving Steadily
A Collection of Concrete Proof of It's
 Growth.


 That Mesa is growing and expend- ing constantly is statement one hears made on the street every day for the benefit of a stranger seeking in vestments or for the announcement of a fellow-townsman But there are very few, apparently. who have more than hazy idea of just what. progress is being made here. or of how the old is giving place to the new. A sort of collective view of some of the more important Improvements in Mesa and vicinity will therefore be not without it's value.
 After a long period of excavation for the Easement the solid concrete foundations of the Mahoney building are now being laid, and the whole structure will be erected with the same idea of solidity and durability The ground plan covers an immense footage of land. When the building is completed it will be one of the most attractive. structures in a busi- ness sense to be found in the valley ranking we'll up with the Phoenix buildings of late construction. In the same connection mention should be made of the new ware house which is being built for the Mesa flour mills, near the building which it is now using for that pur- pose. and which will possess, among other substantial features, large floor space of concrete, and the new uptown quarters of the Mesa Dairy and Ice company. fast nearing com pletion.
 As for the residences, there are many of them either in process of construction at the present time or just finished. Interviews with various building contractors bring out the fact that the said contractors are practi- cally always as busy as they care to be. and hardly a day passes without the announcement of someone's com mencing the building of new home It is a fact worthy of note. too. that the residences now being erected be- long to a uniformly high class. hand some structures of a durable type, built to enhance the value of the prop erty. Within the past week the Blinn Lumber company has received four carloads of lumber besides other building materials. and is finding the demand about equivalent to the sup ply.
 The sidewalk on the west side of Macdonald street north of Main is be- ing torn up and laid with cement in approved urban style This will be the first cement sidewalk of appreci- able length to be built on a north and south street in Mesa. and it will ex- tend from Main to the railroad tracks in the north part of town.
 A force of men and from fifteen to twenty teams have been put to work on South Cuber street. under the di- rection of Road Overseer Hugh Dana, and are grading and leveling that thoroughfare. They are said to have been put to work for a period of no less than ninety days by the board of supervisors. and in that time will work over a number of roads south of Mesa. some of which merely need repairing. while others are scarcely more than trials leading out to the newly settled districts.

Following a conference between Manager Vance, of the Vance Auditor ium, and H. P. Hill. the advance agent for "The Alaskan which was to have been played here tomorrow night, the date was cancelled. MT. Hill con- sidered that the expense and trouble of bringing the production to Mesa would be greater than the probable fi- nancial returns. especially in view of the fact that "The Alaskan company consists of fifty-seven people. They carry two carloads of scenery and properties.

Miss Irene Helmer and Miss Ger trude Hansen. the two regular oper- ators of the Independent Telephone company. who have been seriously i'll with diphtheria recently. are so great ly improved that they may be said to be well along in the convalescent stage. Miss Hansen had a severer attack of the disease than did Miss Helmer. but the latter was not as strong physically as Miss Hansen They are therefore progressing about equally toward recovery.

SUNElOWER PHILOSOPHY.

If you are down hearted it's your
stomach.
They all claim it, but no man is
ovcrworked.
Some people have spring fever all
the year round
Treat your neighbors well. they can
always cause you trouble by saying
you beat your wife.
A pessimist observes that an early
spring also means that much longer
to operate the lawn mower.
n woman loves her husband as long
as she has any feeling of hope toward
MN. When there isn't shred of
nope left she ceases caring for him.
When man spends four dollers'
worth of time in hunting a ten-cent
rabbit his excuse is: But think of
how my health is benefited by the ex-
erclse. -Atchison (kan.) Globe.
1t IS said there is no accounting for
tastes. but one can always account for
the dark brown taste he has next
morning
Inc wise man puts his trust il
providence, but he doesn't meander
along the street hunting holes for
Providence to pull him out Of

Observe Arbor Day.

The people of Maine will observe
Arbor Day, May -, and it is recon-
mended by the State superintendent
OF schools that trees and shrubs be
planted in barren Fairgrounds adJa-
cent to school buildings. That is an
excellent idea and it should be adopt
ed wherever possible. Such cam
paign has two fold value. 1t relieves
the barren aspect of the school yard
and inspires in the children an inter-
est in growing trees which will be OF
inestimable value to future genera
tons
The present demand that steps be
taken to preserve our forest resources
has not been built up in day. Few
realize just how great a part Arbor
Dav observance in the schools has
PLAYED in creating this great national
movement. 1t is unfortunate that the
observance of the day is confined al
most entirely to the school children.
Comparatively few societies or or
Plantations observe the day in a for
NAL manner
The true significance of the OBJ
servance is not understood by the
great mass of people who left the pub
lie schools before nature study was
given place there. They all grant
that it lis we'll enough" to plant tree
or two on Arbor Day. and then forget
all about it. If approached with the
proposition that they themselves plant
tree or shrub on that day they will
almost invariably suggest that they
have no place or that they have not
the time.
If a tree was planted for each in
habitant of the State Of Maine on the
18th of May next. upwards of 100000
trees would be placed where they
would develop under advantageous
conditions Many of the trees planted
each year. die because Of the unskill-
full manner in which the work is done
and the lack of care which is needed
for a short period. On this account
the net results of Mainc's observance
Of Arbor Day will probably be but d
few hundred growing trees. This is
to be regretted. because. while it
is somewhat Of an effort to persuade
people that they ought to take time to
plant a few trees. it is no effort at all
to persuade men to destroy them.
There is room for strenuous cam
pagu of education having for its OBJ
ject u more extensive observance Of
the day.
