CONFESSES HEART HAS
 FLUTTERED

Rumor has it that Bonnie Pierce, one of the handsomest of Williams young bachelor set is about to lead to the Hymenal altar one of the fairest of the bachelor maids of Williams. The report, blushingly denied by Ben, had strength lent to it Monday night when cupid ac- companied Ben to Ben Sweetwood's big moving picture show and pull led the ticket out of the box which gave Pierce the handsome forty. eight piece dinner set.
 "No, I am neither affirming nor denying this marriage rumor," said Pierce in the lobby of the Sultana after the show. 'I do not deny my heart has been all in fiutter at times during the past week, but the tiuttering has been mostly due to wonder whether Doctor Jeffries or Roy Chamberlain were going to lay down or call the bluff"

Oak Creek Items

John J. Murphy, wife and son Ed. were Sedona visitors the 24th, 25th and 26th. Ed. spent six months at the Cypress Hotel at Se- dona and his parents were on a visit with him at his present home at Nuendo Park. They were much taken by our climatic and scenic at- fractions and expect to come this way again.
 An addition 15x16 is being put on the school house at this place. The building is now 16x31 and will afford ample accommodations for awhile at least. Joseph Farley has the contract. The cost of the work will reach over a hundred and fifty dollars.
 MT. Dykes now with c. c. Stem mers on the Cypress Ranch, took the Murphy party from the hotel to a natural wonder known as "The Devils Kitchen" on the 25th. The party gathered many beautiful specimens while there and took sev. eral pictures of the kitchen and sur. rounding country.
 Fruit has begun to ripen on the Cypress Ranch and several loads ot fine peaches and plums have beer hauled to market.

MUCH WORK IN STORE FOR LIVE CHAMBER
 OF COMMERCE
Letters Pouring in From All Sections of the Country Relative to this
 Section.

There is lot of work ahead for an active, enthusiastic, working Williams Chamber of Commerce. Letters are beginning to come from all sections of the United States to
 President Cureton, and to the edi tor of The News, relative to Will Hams, the country surrounding and the opportunities they offer for set clement, home building and invest ment. The letters are the result of the wide campaign of advertising instituted by The Williams News, which regularly is being sent to many public libraries throughout the country, telling of the .9pportu- mites here for the right kind or far mers, the unequaled summer cli- mate and the assured future of Will Hams as the summer resort of all Arizona.
 w. H. Talk during the week re- ceived a letter from Jack Harbison, farmer and cattleman of Canutillo, Texas.
 ''I saw a piece in the Fl Paso
 Herald, clipped from The Williams News, about catching a deer. l don't want any deer but I do want to find out something about that country. Please tell me about the homestead land, the climate and what is the chief business of the country; what kind of work and what do they pay. Is it good cattle country? Please give me all the information you can." The following has been received and turned over to The News by Postmaster Smith:
 Columbus, N. M., July 13, 1913. Postmaster, Williams, Arizona. My DEAR SIR:-
 Am anticipating a trip to your town in the near future with a view of locating. Would like to have some information of the place and surrounding country.
 Population of the town; number of stores, hotels, saloons, restaurants and other business houses. Resources, whether farming, stock raising, mining, etc., in fact any general information you may give me will be appreciated, or send me copy of your town paper if one, Should you not have the time to give this correspondence, please hand 1t to some real estate dealer whom you think might be inter- ested.
 Thanking you in advance, find enclosed self-addressed envelope. Yours very truly, w. D. TfPToN. Those two letters are simply char acteristic of many which are coming
 in now. They surely point out the
 need of real live organization of the business men of Williams for no
 other body is SO influential wi h
 those making inquiries about the
 town and country in which the
 chamber is located. Most of the
 letters are from land seekers, falni-
 lies who want to come and build uF
 homes if there is any land to be had
 on which they can work and make
 a good living.
