Happy Family Reunion

One of the most joyous reun- ions of the Holidays was that of the Garrison family. For the first time in nine years the en- tire family spent Christmas to- gether. Mrs. Meta Garrison and her youngest son, Alfred, who are now residing in Winslow, came to Holbrook Christmas Eve. The remainder of the family, Mrs. Julia Braam, MT. B. J. Garrison wife and daugh- ter. Edna, and Mrs. c. R. Kelly live in Holbrook and had a beau tiful Christmas tree prepared, which was lit up when Mrs. Garrison and Alfred arrived. On Christmas Day a big dinner was partaken of by the family at the home of Mrs. c. Richard Kelly. This happy group spent beauti- ful Christmas together, and cer- tainly enjoyed all the pleasures that are to be had during the Holiday season. To further en- nance the joy of the occasion, MT c. R. Kelly's Mother, Mrs. N. L. Kelly, arrived on Christ mas morning to spend a few days with her son and his wife on her return to Los Angeles from a long visit to her mother in Chicago.

Wishing You A Happy New Year
SUNDAY SCHOOL
 REORGANIZATION

A meeting is hereby called to meet at the Methodist church next Sunday at 2::30 p. m. for the purpose of recognizing the Sunday School for the coming year. In urging a general and hearty cooperation in support of the Sunday, or more strictly Bible School, let me remind all that in Arizona we have strict separation of Church and State. that relig1- ous teaching is barred by law from the public school and there fore the rising generation must get their religious training from other sources or remain ignorant of the great truths that pertain to the spiritual nature. While ours is normally a Methodist school it follows the course laid down by the International Sun day School Union which is com posed of and sustained by the leading great Protestant churches of the land. We seek to make it broadly Protestant and therefore invite general cooperation.

ROSES, HOLLY
 AND WHIST

Judge and Mrs. Sidney Sapp delightfully."- entertained num- Der of friends at their home last Friday evening and all of those who were so fortunate as to be present will long remember the occasion as being one of themost charmingly spent evenings of the holiday season. The rooms were tastefully decorated with a pro- fusion of lovely roses and the seasonable holly. Whist was the diversion of the evening and it required seven tables to accomo- date the large party of contest ants for the prizes. What with the fragrance of flowers and the gracious hospitality of mine host and hostess, the scene was one well calculated to drive dull care away and to induce everyone present to enter into the spirit of the fay with hearty zest. And so the merry war waged fast and furious until low twelve. The score cards of Mrs. w. E. Woods and MT. J. Frank Matthews ex hibiting the most punctures they were awarded appropriate and much appreciated trophies. After the disposal of a delicious two course luncheon the guests reluctantly departed, unanimous in their expressions of having spent most enjoyable evening. Those present were: MT. and idrs. H. E. CAristy; Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Matthews; MT. and Mrs. c. H. Jordan; MT. and Mrs. L. D. DiveIbess: MT. and Mrs. M. R Smith; MT. and Mrs. k. s. Teeple; MT. and Mrs. L. c. Henning; MT. and Mrs. J.

Goods. Roads Meeting

Believing that good roads are a necessary requisite to the up building of Holbrook, as well as the county and state. and that the only sure method of obtain ing goods roads is not by individ- ual effort but by united effort, a goodIy portion of the citizens of Holbrook held a mass meeting in the Pastime Dance Hall. Sunday, December 21. 1913. for the pur- pose of discussing ways and means of organizing Good Roads Club to assist other such organizations throughout the state bring the present agitation on good roads to successful re- suits.
 No permanent organization was formed. as it was the senti- ment of the meeting that same should be held in abeyance until some of the state organizers of such clubs might be able to be present, and because of the pro- bability of more becoming inter- ested and being present at the next meeting.
 The next Good Roads meeting will be held sometime during the month of January, it is thought, but notice will be published at a later date giving the definite date. All Holbrook citizens should be interested in the Goods Roads movement and join to- gether in an association to aid and assist in securing better and more permanent roads for the county and state.
