The volume is dedicated ITO that last and brightest star, whose appearance in the west has been gladly hailed by the Wise Men of the East" Pictures of class officers, the faculty and the class members are next in line. Accomplishments of the class compose the reading matter to a large degree. Athletics. societies. jokes, and class organizations of the school are found in the copy too, however.
 There is little doubt but what this is the last view of the work of the class as a whole one will ever see again. The publication shows the eff forts of practically every member of the class. either in the working un of the book or other labor in behalf of the class as a whole. The senior circus and play comes in for it's every member of the class having something to do with the former. It was that affair that cleared them from debt and left them with money in the treasury at the present date. Taking the volume in it's entirety it appears that the complete class of 1912 should be highly recommended for leaving such work of art as The Fountain" as a last remem- brance of it's efforts in the Tempe Normal school.

MESA
MEETING OF THE

Several Matter S of Importance Were Taken up and Discussed and

There was very good attendance at the meeting of the Mesa commercial club Wednesday night, and the boost CTS were quite enthusiastic over the future. The railroad committee re- ported progress in the work of getting lower rates for the farmers between had no Encouragement, which in itself was gratifying. The question had been taken up among the business men, the farmers and railway officials. The al- lied boards of trade has been enlisted in the movement, and an old time traf- fife man, F. A. Jones, will be in Mesa tomorrow to attend the meeting of the allied boards. The committee is get ting all the figures possible regarding the proposition of reduced rates and will endeaVor to convince the railroad officials that it will be to the mutual advantage of the roads and the farm CTS to make a more favorable rate be- tween tFe valley pOiats and the coast. Six dollars cuts off the farmers profits and discourages the growth of alfalfa for the outside markets. A reduction to $4 per ton would mean the ship
 
 hay from this section.
 The report of the committee on tele- phone service was heard. The com mittee reported that the telephone companies, having just made cOmbin- ation, it as impossible to learn what would be done in regard to better ser vice, but that the manager of the Mountain States had promised to do | the best he could.

One of them related to the kind of headlights; another to number of men that must be employed on the trains another ,O the 3-cent fare measure and another to semi-month1y pay days He took the matter up with the Mesa com- mercial club directors. but the latter decided that as a strictly commercial organization for boosting purposes, it was hardly the proper thing to take action as a body, either to approve or disapprove the circulating of the pc titions: that was a matter entirely for the individuals to settle. MT. Sparks thanked the board for their fairness in the matter, and proceeded to canvas for signCrs. He met with excellent success, but learned something in his rounds Parties who were ardent Sup porters of the initiative the recall and the referendum" when the matter was before the public gave him Klondyke reception (nOt all of them of course) while many who opposed such an in- nOvation on the part of Arizona, will lingly lent their names to help get the question before the voters.
