SNAKE DANCE MISSED
BY WINSLONI1ES


Mr.. and Mrs. Gus Hansen, Mr.. |
Mr.. and Mrs. w G Kelley, Mrs.
L W Quinlan, j D LaChance,
George Robinson and Dave Feig
constituted a party that occupied
two autos in a taip to Orabi to
see the snake dance.
Gus Hansen claimed he was
familiar with the roads that
would bring the party to their
destination in the least possible
time. AS a pilot he got off on
his reconing and as a consequence
hardships We're suffered that
were not anticipated.
The voyage, which perhaps
properly characterizes the trip
because of water difficulties en-
countered, caused all of the party
to wish that they had spent those
few days on their front porch
feeling at peace with the world
and enjoping advantages Of civ
| ilization.
AS between Kelly and Hansen
it is difficult to form conclusions.
Kelly says he supplied the motive
power to pull Hansen out of sew
eral tight holes and Hansen con-
tends that there would have been
no trouble if Kelly had taken
the precaution to carry enough
! gasoline and water to appease
the appetite of his car.
! There appears to be concert
ed movement to suppress impor-
Liant details regarding the trip
but two facts sufficiently substn-
tiated are that Joe LaCbance
was the hero of the expedition.
When Kelly found himself out of
gasoline Joe responded to the
emergency and packed five gal
lon can on his back distance of
| six miles. Because of Kelly's
miscalculation there was a short
age on water and Joe was re-
Questioned to hike sixteen miles
to supply the deficiency. With
out sleep for two nights he made
good and Carried the Message
to Garcia.
| 1t is difficult to determine on
tWhom the fault rests but it is a
Imatter of fact that the snake
dance was past history before the
! WinsloWites arrived at Orabi.
Dan Feig as an entertainer
! proved invaluable to the ladies in
trying situations and he stands
next to Joe LaChance in the class
of heroes.
| Kelly and Hansen have made re-
quest on Bill Williams to furnish
an Official chart of the various
roads to Orabi.

Geo. w Harben of Williams,
who is out in the interest of
Wiley E Jones for Attorney
General on the Dem. ticket spent
Wednesday and Thursday in
Winslow. Mr.. Jones was a
worker for Statehood both in
Arizona and in Washington, was
o iginal Bryan DELEGATE from
Arizons in 1896 and was a Demo-
cratic Presidential Elector in 1919
leading the electoral ticket in
each of the IA Arizona counties.
He has been for eight years Dis
rict Attorney for Graham county
and is at present Assistant = S
Attorney.
The public school system of
Arizona was never in better con-
dition than they are at the pres
ent time, due in a large measure
to the efficiency Of C. O. Cass,
state superintendent of public in
struction, who is after renomin-
alton at the Democratic primary
election Tuesday. Among some
OF the things operating benifc-
tally for the school, that have
been secured during his admins
tration are an eight months term
of school, County high schools,
compulsory school age 8 to 16
years, free text books, protection
for children (by labor laWs), and
a $500, 900 state school fund, and
many other measures of like i'm
oortance. This record speaks for
tself and should be remembered
