CONGESTION IN SCHOOL

That it will be necessary to have more room for the school children of the Mesa district is now certainty. The present enrolment in the gram mar grades is I'll pupils and in the high school ITO, making d total of SS1, an increase of more than 100 over last year. There are probably fifty to seventy-five shildren of school age that have not yet been started to school by their guardians, but who must, under the law be com- pelled to attend What to do with all the children is a puzzle to Professor Robertson. One of his teachers now has 70 and another 50 in one grade : far too many to enable the teachers to do justice to the pupils. One plan o4 relief is to have d small building erected as speedily as possible, thus affording room for two grades. To that end the following notices have been given out:
 All contractors and carpenters who wish to bid on the tWo-rOOm house to be erected on the central school grounds opposite the high school, can get detailed information by calling at the office of the superintendent not later than o'clock.

BALE IF COTTON
 10 ACRE 0F LAND
Lab Brothers Are Harvesting Crop ot Egyptian Cotton Two
 Mics East of Town.

During the past week George and Olarence Laib have been picking cot ton rom their ten-acre field two niles east of Mesa, and are very en- 'Auslast1c over the result. F.. H. Hud- son. who is qualified by long ex- perlence to judge. says the brothers will gather at least bale of cotton tc each acre planted
 The Laib brothers own their home stead, and of course it is all new land. Ten acres of it they planted to lcng staple Egyptian cotton on the 2Oth ot April. They are now the pos sessors of d crop of staple product that will pay them big money for the time and effort expended Clarence Lalb, who brought to town and left With the Commercial club samples of hlS crop says that the work is not difficult. He is q musician, employed at night in the Coliseum. He came here from Chicago and had never seen any cotton growing and his knowledge of farming would not have covered a page in d small primer; but he believed that he was not too old to learn. Securing what information he could from books, and needing the instructions as to plant ing given him by MT Hudson, Clar- ence and his brother put the cotton seed in the ground. It came up very thick and had to be thinned; this was done by pulling out the un- necessary stalks; for they had fol- lowed instructions so carefully tha- more seed had been planted than necessary and a hoe could not be used for the thinning. That was really all the work that was re- Guired. The hoeing afterward was a Pleasure and good exercise for the muscles. Now the boys are picking their own cotton. The Egyptian cot ton boil is divided into three sec tions. with sharp talon shaped thorn separating them. In picking 1t is necessary to do the work with the thumb and two fingers: whereas, in gathering the short staple, one grabs the cotton with the entire hand. When dry, the thorns on the cotton boil are sharp and one needs to use some care to avoid pricking After little experience the picker
 
 and missing the thorns.
 In addition to the cotton, the Laib brothers have large field Of milo maize. also summer crop, which they estimate will yield them 5000 pounds to the acre. This is not an unusual yield in the Mesa section, even on new land. and is referred to simply to show what two young men, with no capital but good health, ] strong muscles and industry, can | accomplish. As they gain the needed l experience, no doubt their efforts in coming years will bring even better results. Clarence, who is quite an | enthusiast. has plans for next season | that include the cultivation of every acre of the farm to the best possible advantage

TEMPE
SEASONS FIRST SOCIAL
 OF THE TEMPE NORMAL
Made an Occasion for Getting Ac-
 quainted.

The first social event of the year at the Normal took place Friday night in the nature of reception to the new students. This is an annual event of the school and is always looked forward to with considerable interest The affair is given by the cld students of the institution, who have entire charge of it's promotion. A portion of the campus just west ot the presidents cottage was pre- pared for the occasion and electric lights strung from tree to tree. A piano was also moved out onto the lawn for the use of those assiting in the entertainment.
 A short program prepared by the students was rendered as follows: Miss Laura Schmidt. piano solo; Julius Goodwin, two songs; Cecil Mullen, violin solo; Miss Helen Bur gess, four readings: Prof J. l.. John ston. two vocal solos; grand march, Miss Vera McNulty accompanist. It will be noticed that in all most every instance encOres were a part of the program. And in those places where it was not given it is an assured fact it was not the fault of those in attendance.
 Following the program ice cream and cake were served to all, some three hundred.
 The event was a grand success from start to finish much tO the sat-
 isfactiOn of the old students as well as the new. Apparently all became acquainted, that being the main thought in anticipating the event For three hundred to become fully acquainted in the school room is rather difficult proposition, es- pecially under the prevailing rules. The only regrettable part of the whole evening was that President A J. Matthews was not present with his accustomed address. Unfortunate ly Mr Matthews was called to Phoe- nix on important business early in the afternoon and was unable to make proper connections to insure his appearance at the social, con sequently he remained over all night.
