Arizona republican., 1913-08-10

With the first week of August over,
 there remains but three weeks on
 summers calendar. The days will
 pass quickly for those who are away.
 At the Arizona resorts the season is
 at its height, and socially it has been
 an unprecedented summer. The Phocnicians' reputation for hospital
 ity is based on fact alone, and this
 has been proven time and again, as
 the cottages in the mountains have been thrown open for weekend guests. In California the home folk are
 scattered, and the pleasures have
 been "singly' rather than 'collec-
 tively;" however, in the thousands
 who attended the Santa Monica races yesterday practically every Arizonian on the coast could have been found.
 only one other event is q greater drawing card-the annual reunion and picnic of the Arizona Hassayampa SO cicty. which will be held in Venice, Tuesday. The register of the society records over four hundred and fifty names. and they do not include many of the beach contingent who have not gone to Los Angeles and made their presence known to the orSani- zation, but plan to take part in the festivities Headquarters at the Hol- Icnbeck hotel tell the story of the interest the event is arOusing, and the secretaries are not having moment that is not given to going over the program with those who are eligible to attend and make this years event a record breaker. When the special car arrives at Venice at ten-fOrty o'clock it will be met by Mayor C. w. HoIbroob, who will present Aonzo. h., 7i-l-i ion with the key of the city. Everything in the way of amusements that the beach offers has not been considered enough for the notable visitors, and a luncheon, vaudeville and dance will be the additional features. There will be tcn-minute talks, and of course the subject will be Arizona. Hon Ben Goodrich will recall the days that were to the ld-timers and to them and to the new generation Arizona As She Was" will be of interest. Arizona As She Is" will be discussed by Hn. w. T. Webb and Hon. Alfred Franklin, chief justice of the supreme court, will prophecy her future his subject being Arizona As She Will Be"
