that we should now
turn to Indian themes
for our latter-day
dramas on the green

Hiawatha has proven
particularly popular
for such presentation
and has been enacted
in all parts Of the
country, sometimes
with real Indians in
the roles and some
times with white folk

persons who contend
that the penchant for
the open-air drama in
America is but the

to new settlers. under conditions es-
recially desirable for the immigrant
classes of the old world.
In this it is quite interesting to note
the difference in the attitude of Euro
pean nations toward their people and
those on this side of the water. Here
everything possible is done TO pile III

from leaving the homeland. Across M
water where conditions are grinding IN
the poorer classes, the governments
have more population of this sort thar
they know what to do with. They
know that the surplus must emigratz
To live. Accepting that situation the
governments interest themselves in
finding good places for their people Ia

racial as any human being likes to see
his own kind prosper But il also has
a political and economic side. for Il

they are even worse off than in their

at the battalion organization and the
banquet. returned in their special
trains to their homes last night.
The two days session is over. How
ever. the meeting will not be without
results Over one hundred and fifty
men were gathered together at these
meetings. and the Pythian cause was
eXpounded in 4 way that will make
every member Of the lodge feel bet

organization composing the lodges of
Mesa Tempe and Phoenix was eff

has nearly one hundred, and each of
the others twenty-five.
The visiting lodges from Mesa and
Tempe were met at the train by the
uniformed company from Anaheim,
and together with the Indian School
band, were escorted up TO the l. o.

company and the battalion, all We're
directed to the Knights Of Pythias
hall. where a fOur-cOurse dinner was
served, and flashlight OF the assem-

passed and the lodge men fraternized
together the next half hour. retiring
to the main room, where the rank of
Sir knight was conferred upon the
new members.
A number Of splendid drills We're
executed by the visiting company from
Anaheim during the evening, giving
an example of the high point of eX-
cellence the Arizona lodges may en-
deavor TO attain. General Rover also
gave some short talks outlining the
methods of procedure in obtaining
this standard. in building up the lodge
and further emphasized his remarks
by bringing in candidate and having
him sign the application for member
ship to the splendid organization on
the spot.
1t is a fact that will help largely to
create the fraternal spirit among the
members of this order when they
realize that men like General Roger
are members of their organization.

practicable method should be adopted
t. prevent speculative acquisition oi

ton of construction Of irrigation works
undr the national irrigation act
This policy. however. may be
applied to such an extent as
L. result in the delay OF actual settle
ment and best development. The pol
icy is only justified when carried to
that extent which will eliminate specu-
lative nom resident ownership of lands
before construction has progressed to
q stage where the works are available
for use.
The limitations Of ownership Of such
lands To residents under projects in or
about to be put into operation has the
direct tendency to delay segregation Of
the lands into desirable smaller farm
units: has all the evil effects of re-
Straint upon free alienation OF lands;
produces an artificial and unwhole-
some excess of lands beyond immedi-
ate demand by limiting the number Of
possible purchasers to local residents
already supplied to the extent now
prescribed: demOraliZes values: delays
settlement and development and &C
complishes no good purpose.
We, therefore, recommend that. when
any project is sixty per cent complet-
cd. the ownership of lands under that
project be not limited to actual resi-
dents as prescribed by the national
irrigation act.
