10th WEEK
AUTO TTAGE LINE
TO SOLOMONVILLE

Messrs N. J. Scott and R. H.
Scott. proprietors of the Scott
Auto Stage Line Co., have pur-
chased two new five passenger
Ford cars and are. rapidly com
pletlng arrangements to give this
section a much needed auto stage
service. Anyone wishing to 90
to lower valley points can
now make the trip in a few
hours instead Of day and night,
and the cost is about the same.
Cars meet the trains at Duncan
and at Solomonville according to
a very convenient schedule which
is elsewhere published.
The Messrs Scott, who happen
not to be related, but only to
have the same name, are both
experienced stage and auto men.
They are strong believers in the
industrial future of the Duncan
section, and their auto line which
will serve the Clifton and Moren-
CT district as well as the routes
already mentioned will be a
strong faction in our local devel-
opment.
Besides ihe regular stage line
routes, the Messrs Scott have
cars for hire at any time day or
night. They now have four cars
in their service and are prepared
to handle business whereon
there is a passable road. The
opening of this service marks an
important forward step, and is
"a matter for general conqratula-
ton.

NESS MAN HERE
Famous Duncan Pioneer

Mr.. Howard C. Boone, Presi.
dent OF the Central States Life
Insurance Co., of St. Louis, has
been visiting his old home towr
of Duncan, during the past week.
Mr.. Boone was pleasant caller
at the Arizonian office, and talk.
ed freely of the early days.
About thirty years ago Mr.. Boone
was the prime mover in the
construction of the Valley Canal.
still known familiary as the
Boone ditch.
At that time he owned some
thing like fifteen hundred acres
OF land in and around Duncan.
He and Mrs. Boone having prov
ed up on a full section them
selves under the desert land
laws. The rest he ACQUIRED
from others, but at length he
sold the whole at less than one
dollar per acre. while the land
which Mr.. Boone sold SO cheaply
become valuable, Mr.. Boone has
also prospered himself in a fnan-
cial way being now a prominent
business man of st. Louis. His
recent visit to Arizona has been
partly for the purpose of intro
duclng and organizing the work
OF his life insurance company in
the new state.
Speaking of the old days, Mr..
Boone recalled the time when
he used to have a general store on
the corner now occupied by Lem
Spaw. He owned and built the
old adobe mansion now occupied
by Cashier Lanneau, of the Bank
of Duncan, which is soon to be
remodled as a kitchen and din
ing room for the new Hobbs
Holel.
Mr.. Boone expressed himself
as much pleased with the pro-
gress of Duncan and the Gila
Valley and spoke very optomist-
ically of the furture, pointing
out the undeveloped resources
of the section which are sure to
invite people with ambition and
Capital who are looking for a
place to do something worth
while.

BUSINESS OF DAIRYING PAYS
Time That Darymen Took Hold of
Matter to Raise the Standard of
Dairy Intelligence.
(By s. VAN AKEN.)

.
There is sentiment abroad that
dairying is becoming unpopular with
many, and there is less inclination
among young men to engage in it.
If this be so, it is time dairymen took
hold of this matter to raise the stand
ard of dairy intelligence and educa-
ton up to the point where it will be
popular. The door must be opened
to the boys and girls of this country
SO inyitingly, with so much of inter-

we may not change much, we have

clear it will be recognized that get

life does not imply that one must
leave the farm. 1t must be shown
that man may by intelligent prac-
tice have farm, high producing
dairy stock, and may know about
feeds and feeding and produce the
best; but it implies study, compari-
son, and gathering the best informa-
ton and applying it.

SERMON


| The following sermon was
recently delivered by Rev. Acuff
at the Methodist church.
Repentance and Faith. Luke
1873.
Repentance and faith are the
two necessary conditions of sal
walton. Repentance toward God
and faith in Jesus Christ. A
deep realization of sin and real
sorrow for sin, with a strong de-
termination to forsake sin, and
a sincere desire to live in the
way with Christ. Faith to be-
lieve that Jesus Christ is the
son of God and that God for
Christ's sake can, will and does
forgive our sin when we comply
with his way and not with our
own.
Sin. Rom. 5-12. j
| Sin is the transgression of a
known law, or a want of con-
formity to Gods law. There are
two divisions of sin, original
and actual. Original sin is that
sinfulness that characterizes the
nature of every man and mani
tests itself as a bias toward evil.
Actual sins are our own volun-
tary trangression of a known
law of God. Without revela-
tion of the law there could be
no actual sin and no personal
guilt. Autual sin is, first of all,
internal. it is a volition or act
of the soul, by which the related
will set itself in opposition to
the will of the Creator.
Conviction. Rom. PA. lisa
6-5-7.
Before we can repent of sin
we must first know something
of sin and have some realization
of the wrong of sin and the re-
suit of sin, and this is to be con-
1
victed of sin. Conviction is the
impression of the Holy Spirit on
the heart, it is the work of the
Holy Spirit and often times con-
trary to our own will. Convic-
tion is that deep realization of
sin. that we are III sin, and
under the power of sin, and
feeling the guilt and condemna-
tion of sin, and a knowledge
that we are in a lost condition.
Lost! Lost forever! We have
now come to know that we have
no merit of our own that will
atone for our sins. No physical
powers strong enough to conqu-
er Satan. No mental strength
sufficient to devise a plan for our
salvation. Then we think, Oh!
wretched one that / am.
l
Woe is me, for / am undone,
because am a man Of unclean
lips. Isa. 6-5-7.
| At such a time as this we turn
to God and cry out in our despair,
Save! or I perish. We say with
in our own hearts, salvation is of
no other source than of the Lord.
By Grace are we saved through
Faith.
Salvation is from sin. Luke
! 1910.
| Salvation is from sin and not
IN SIN, we are not to be saved
in our sins, which so many of us
would like to be. If we could be
saved and hold on to our evil
habits and wicked ways, and un-
belief, we could serve Satin and
God both at the same time, you
cannot serve God and mammon,
The world claims the right of
Gods salvation, but are unwill-
ing to comply with His simple
plan of salvation. We are saved
from the power of sin, the guilt
of sin and the condemnation of
sin. We are saved only by the
cleansing blood of the Son of

rection about a yard long, the
boy becomes very sorry, and if
there is a proper time for a fel-
low to be sorry, that is just the
time. | speak from past expert
ence. The boy is just as mean
in his heart as he ever was, the
sorrow is caused by the sight of
the rod. We call this worldly
sorrow.
/ Cody sorrow is of a different
nature. 1t is being sorry for sin
because it is wrong, because it
is a violation of good principles
and right living, because we
have transgressed Gods laws
and have been living in open re-
bellion to his will. Sorry be-
cause we hate the wrong and
love the right. We pray that
God will forgive our sins, not
through the plan Of punishment,
but as a matter of right and
because down deep in our hearts
we want to be free from sin, so
we can live with God and his
people even that we might be
in the way with Christ in this
life and that we might enter
into more abundant life in the
world to come.
FOrsake sin. lisa 55-7
Forsaking sin is to leave it off
because it is WRONG. If you are
sorry of your sins, quit them,
quit your evil habits. quit every
thing that is hurtful to you in
any way, if it is hurtful to your
neighbor, don't do it, if it is a
violation to Gods law and will.
say you won't. About, face from
the world and the Devil, renew
your life and say that will live
for God, because it is right.
Amendment and Restitution.
Luke 1913.
Go Immediately to your friends
and enemies and make right that
wrong you have done them re-
gardless of what it might cost,
do this not for praise. but as a
matter OF conscience and right.
Make apologies for those unkind
things you have said to them
and about others, right the
wrong you have done. Go and
pay back that i'll gotten gain,
that illegal profit that you have
long since received, people won't
think that you are crazy, but
they will say that fellows got
religion, /" and the world will be
persuaded that there is reality
in the religion of the Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ.
Confession. Rom. 1O-9. James
5 -16.
Can you confess to the church
and the world that you Lave
done wrong? We often tell our
neighbors that they have done
wrong. But it is a different
thing for us to say that we have
done wrong. If it be right why
should we be ashamed to confess
Christ before the world. Rreth-
ern have you got the courage
and backbone to stand up and
face man and devil and say from
this day hence, you will live for
God? Now sinner turn to Christ
and say by the grace of God 1
will be thine, am thine, from
this day hence 4 will live with
thee.
This is what we mean by re-
pentance. You have been try
ing for long time to repent and
you didn't know how, and you
haven't tried very hard to learn
how.
Pray that God will impress
you and instruct you by His
spirit. Repent of your sins with
a Cody sorrow, forsake your
sins, make right your wrongs,
confess your faults one to an
other, and take Christ for your
own Savior. Get out of your
