MORENCI NEW s AND ITEMS OF LOCAL INTEREST

Uncle John Molder rode in from the New York-Arizona camp Tuesday to purchase a weeks rations.
 Miss Pearl McCool entertained the members of the Teachers Card club and their gentlemen friends Friday last.
 Miss Florence McGowan was able to resume her duties Tuesday as teacher in the public schools, after a weeks illness.
 D. D.. Irwin spent Saturday after noon and Sunday with Chas. Shontz, returning to Garfield Monday morn ing.
 Mrs. Geo. Frazier entertained the members of one of the Ladies card clubs at her home on A hill Saturday afternoon.
 f Frank Martin is again able to at tend to his duties as proprietor and manager of the Star theater after severe illness which inexperienced him for the past three weeks.
 Messrs. E. F. Whittelsey, Fred Nc Dougall, L. N. Ward, w. O. Ashley and J. J. Pascoe are among the Nor encites who are attending court at Globe, having been drawn as jurors.
 There seems to be an epidemic of la grippe and tonsilitis in camp, the greater part of the people having slight touch of the former, and aI- though the latter has not been as noticeable to the majority, never-the less has, as many will confirm, been getting it's share of victims.
 At the regular meeting of the Ladies' Aid society held Tuesday af- ternoon Mrs. M. G. Talcott and Mrs. Laugdon notified the ladies of their intention of resigning from the com mittees upon which they both have served so faithfully owing to their intention of leaving camp in the near future. It was with deep regret that their resignations were accept ed as both women have been untir- ing in their efforts to make the work of their committees count and help put the work of the present year upon a standard that will make the society's actions and doings felt as never before in camp. No action was taken toward electing any one to ill their places on the committees.
 Tuesday evening a number of the local basket ball players got together for the purpose of organizing a bas- ket ball team for the coming winter. McElrain, who needs no introduction to the lovers of sport in Morenci and Clifton. was, after much persuading, convinced that he would not only play, but owed it to the fellows to captain and coach the team. This alone makes tue basket ball outlook for Morenci brighter than it has ever been before and with Merritt, Stan ger, Cash Sandon, Blikensderfer,C Crit tendon, Walkabaugh, ,Chastain, Ayers and several others, all experienced men to work ith, there is no doubt but what ''Mc'' will have a winning team. The night upon which the games should be played was discussed and notwithstanding the fact that last year Clifton refused to play on Fridays, the local boys are going to endeavor to have the Morenci ga mes scheduled for that night if possible. Another meeting will be held next Monday eveni lg at S:3O ID the Club game room to organize and elect an athletic association. If you care to come out for the team or are inter ested in any way come to the meet ing. No one barred.
