GENUINE NAVAJO
 BLANKETS AT COST
An Opportunity at Balke's Big Curio Store Never To Be Offered
 Again.

The attention of the public having been called to the unprecedented op- portunity to purchase geunine Navajo blankets at Balke's Big Curio Store, the blanket department of that store has been having a busy time.
 But that might have been expected, considering the reputation of the Big Curio Store as headquarters for blan- kets. coupled with the fact that they are being sold at cost. There is no other place in the United States where they can be bought so cheap. They cannot be had at these figures even in the remote parts of the Navajo reser- vation. They are selling for as low a price as they could be obtained for several years ago before the demand for them became so great.
 There will never be such 6 chance again. This stock, as large as the Big Curio Store ever stocked itself up with for a season. must go with everything else at the closing out sale which was determined upon after the stock had been purchased. Here is a cornbina- tion of circumstances that will in all Likelihood never occur again. At any rate those who want Navajo blankets cannot afford to wait for it to happen.

UP ID DATE DIRECTORY
 OF PHOENIX AND VALLEY
ITS DISTRIBUTION IS SHORTLY
 TO BE COMMENCED.
w. D. Bell Is Publisher and He Spared No Pains or Expense to Make
 1t Complete.

Twenty thousand names, 1o,S0O of which are residents of the city of PhOe- nix, are included in W. D. Bells new directory. distribution of which will be commenced in few days. The direc- tory is undoubtedly the most complete of Phoenix and the Salt River Valley that has ever been printed.
 Phoenix. Mesa. Tempe and Glendale, as we'll as every rural route in the val ley, are included Data for the direc- tory was secured in exactly the same way that the national census is taken. MT Bells assistants were given certain districts to cover and they did their work by blocks. Starting at one corner they would work right around a block to the place Of beginning, not missing house and going upstairs in all build ings of more than one story. As a re- suit the information is complete and right up to date
 MT. Bell has, been testing his direc- tory by carrying it around town and, whenever he met and talked with any one. looking up his name and address. He has found only a few mistakes and they were trifling ones which will be corrected in a page of errata- The more he tests the directory the more convinced he becomes that it is as cor rect as it was humanly possible to make it.
 A house to house canvass was made in Phoenix. Tempe. Mesa and Glendale and on all the rural routes. The houses for two miles on each side of Glendale, where there is no rural route, were al- so canvassed
 The names of married women and children under eighteen years of age were omitted. Mir Bell estimates that only about half the people of Phoenix are included in the directory, therefore the population IS in the neighbOrhoOd of 2l.000.
 There are fifty more pages in Bells directory than in any other ever printed for the section it covers. The printing is beautifully done and the directory is quite a handy volume. being no larger than an ordinary novel

taught in the school at all. Many ap- plications for membership have been received but only few have qualified thus far. Each applicant must have taken a certain amount of science work. must have made a grade of S5 per cent in the work and members must main- tain standing of s5 per cent in science. Henry Harvey is president of the club while Walter Thalheimer is secretary and treasurer
 The subject next Thursday will be The History and Development of Elec- tricity," by Herbert Hodges. who has spent several months in preparation. His paper promises to be very instruc- tive and interesting.

PHOENIX POSTOFF|CE
 BREAKING RECORDS
Two of Them Have Been Shattered
 Since Christmas.

The Phoenix pOstoffice has broken two more records. One is the record for first class mail matter dispatch ed, or mailed in Phoenix for local delivery. It is estimated that on Tuesday more letters and parcels re- curing first class postage. were dropped into the Phoenix mail boxes than on any preceding day in the history of the office. People seem to be taking up business and social matters by correspondence. with the same avidity with which they threw themselves into their annual Christ mas ceremonials.
 The other record is one that gives something of a line on the transient character of the population of Phoe- nix. It is indicated by the number of orders left daily at the postoffice for change of address. On Wednes- day there were 193 changes thus handed in. Of course they were largely transients who ordered their mail forwarded but there was never theless a big part of them changes for people who live here permanently or expect to be here at least for the winter and keep moving from one lodging house to another or from one rented property to another. It took two employees over two hours to tab ulate these change cards listing them alphabetically and in their proper places.
 If the public would stop to appre- ciate that from fifty to a hundred and fifty changes are handed in daily at the postoffice there would be more charity for the occasional errors made in distribution. for the apparent fail ure to pay attention to orders given for changes, and the necessity of correct street and number addresses. In the course of a week the distri butors and sorting clerks probably have a thousand changes to make in throwing the mail of patrons and even with the combined use Of-gOOd memories and their lists and card system. it is impossible to always remember every move that everybody makes.

way the entire world became ac-

passion Play was to be held.
The reason Of this, any mtelli-
gent reader could see, from a bus

the earthly gain that this play
would bring for the inhabitants

We're hundreds and hundreds of

plan was original with the peO-
pie, Of this mountain village Of
Bavaria, or that they were capa-
BILE of this, although it may have
been their wish and ann to make
this large gain for themselves and
their hamlet, which in itself is
claSsed as a very poor farming
and mining community.
The Passion Play was produced
regularly from the first of May
until the last of September, and
at times it was necessary to re-
produce the play every day, Ow-
ing to the crowds present. A
person can readily see that the
amount of money taken In at
these productions was immense,

ing capacity of over 5000 people.
l do not think it is OvereStimat-
ed when | say that over a half
million people attended this play
during these four months. What
a large sum of money was gath
cred there in this time is quite
hard to estimate, but no one ey-
er paid less than five dollars,
and We kindly ask the dear read
er to figure this out for them
selves, yet l feel safe to say that
a good many of the visitors paid
as high as twenty-five dollars
and in some instances paid fiji
ty dollars. The material gain is
a large one for these people, and
they are certainly entitled to it.
For l found all the people in
0berammergau, very kind and so
cable, especially to the Amer
leans. My idea of the great sue
cess of the Passion Play is the
pietful mood of the members of
the entire Christian church the
Catholics as well as the PrOteS-
tantS, because the visitors came
