 Loss Acker and Tom Pollock, of Flagstaff. T. F. Holden, Ed. Ham, ilton and X. N. Sleeves, of Will Hams, lead in most of the discus sions.
 The Kent Bill and amendments were taken up and discussed at length.

ATKINs-GREENE WEDDING.

A very pretty wedding was cele- brated at St. Johns Episcopal Mis- sion at 7-3O Tuesday morning when Miss Jessie Estelle Atkins and Mir. Harold Greene were united in mar riage. The little chancel was made very attractive with palms., white carnations and apple blos-' soms together with quantity of white and pink roses, the gift of Phoenix friends. The tall cathe-. dral candles on the altar gfimmered among boquets of white carnations in the brass vases. s i9
 The vested choir of eight voices sang the Lohengrin music with, Miss Edna Poison, pupil of Miss Atkins, at the organ. The reces. sional march was a beautiful com position written for the wedding by MT. Frederick L. Ryder of Chi cago. The Rev. Henry Clark Smith, Rector of St. Johns, offici- ciated. MT. R. L. Deering of Min neapolis attended the groom and Miss Mary Collins of Dahs Center, Iowa, attended the bride. Mr Mcdonald Robinson, president of the Williams State Bank, at whose home Miss Atkins has been guest, F gave the bride away.
 The bride wore her travelling suit of wistaria silk poplin with hat to match and carried valley lilies. The maid of honor wore lighter shade in figured voile with white picture hat and carried pale piak carnations.
 MT. and Mrs. Greene left for a short honeymoon trip on one of the morning trains They forgot to leave their address but dogs and guns at the station betrayed the. suspicion that the time would be spent in the saddle on hunting trip among the glorious mountains of Arizona. 'Ts' T ffl;'sss ft':,' ,r,'-s
 The bride is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Edward Payson Atkins, s of Spirit Lake, Iowa. She is an ac- complished pianist having studied under the best teachers of Chicago and Berlin. Among, the presents especially appreciated by, her were a present from the class she has been teaching ip Williams and the altar fowers";givep hs St Margar- cts Guild in appreciation of the services as organist of the little church. @ ,ts<
 The groom is. the youngest. son of Mrs. Marie E. Greene of Mont clair, New Jersey. He graduated from Princeton University in 1903, one of the three honor men out of a class of over two hundred. As head of the Tusayan National Fer est Reserve, he has won the confi- dence and respect of the commun ity in an unusual degree by his tactful handling of difficult matters.
 MT. Greene has purchased lots in the Perrin Addition and will soon begin the building of home. Here the young couple expect soon to be at home to their many friends.

CIVIC AND EDUCATIONAL
 CLUB MEETS

The civics and educational de- partment of the Woman's Club held it's regular monthly meeting on Thursday, April 16th- in the School Auditorium, Mrs. Andrew Miller presiding.
 Mrs. Miller headed the program with some interesting remarks, de- fining Kindergarten work and ad- vocating its introduction in the schools, altho there is no provision for it's maintenance in this state, Each age has completeness of it's own, and the perfection of the later stage can be obtained only thru the perfection of the earlier. The systematized training of children below the age when elementary education begins has solved the probleA of economies in education.
 Miss Collins discussed very clear ly the merit of games and stories in primary work. While the meth cd see,ns only play to the thought less back of it lies distinct educa- tional object,- we'll defined pur- pose which revealed later. Then after this comes more difficult and delicate work the telling of the best stories. The child without imagination will be the man, the woman without ideals.
 Miss Peet then took the floor with the 3rd grade pupils to demon strate her work in physical culture. Her remarks were to the point and convincing. The folk-dancing was rich, graceful, entertaining and ed ucational. It is rare that the young woman who teaches is flex- ible enough in body and mind to be accepted by the children as one of them Miss Peet owes her re- narkable success to her affable ard adaptable manner. Organized play is open to some weakness and its guidance takes genius on the part of the play school teacher.
 Mrs. Rebinson closed the pro gram with History of the Kinder garten in which she dealt largely with Trobele and his work, with Pestalozzi and with the Montessori system, making the kindergarten inspiration of incalculabIe value. She classes 1t as link between the school and the home, which may be used to strengthen the founda- tions and elevate the ideals of fam fly life.
 Altogether this was among inc very best of the many good meet ings held this season by each de- partment of the Woman's Club.
