SAFfORD GETS LIGHTS
 AND CITY REJO|CES
Graham Metropolis Takes on City Airs and Considers Event Epoch Making

Stafford is now all one great white way. New Yorks Broadway has noth- ing on the Graham county metropolis. The lighting plant, whose existence has been eagerly awaited, is now in opera tion. The city council has voted to install twenty street lamps. Graham glows with pride and with electricity.
 That the opening of it's new lighting system is the greatest event that has yet been marked in the history of the county, is evidenced by the following account of the occurrence published in the Graham Guardian:
 At last it has come to pass. The dream of years has at last been realized and Stafford goes to the front as the leading town of the baby state.
 The electric lights are with us. In our homes, in our business houses and we are sailing on in the good ship Progress to that harbor which makes our town better place to live in each day
 And this great event in our history budded forth in all it's dazzling glory, when the juice that makes night as bright as day, was turned on in the electric plant of the Gila Valley Elec- tric Gas and Water company, Friday night.
 For several days previous to the plant starting up, electricians were kept busy wiring homes and business places, but quite a few were left in the stretch when the winner was an nounced. But this week the work of wiring and planning for having the electric light installed has gone steadily on. until in a short time every place in town will be using electricity for light ing purposes.

Minnesota school teachers want
the new public school act to include
provision for a teachers pension
system somewhat similar to those
maintained in Minneapolis, St. Paul
and Duluth. A committee of the
Minnesota Educational association
is presenting the matter to the Min
nesota Educational commission,
which is preparing a bill for an act
recognizing the entire school sys-
tenn and the members of the commits
sion are said to look with favor on
the suggestion. The plan contem-
plates a tax levy of one-tenth Of a
mill for a teachers retirement fund,
to which the teachers also are to con-
tribute a share of their pay. Teach
ers will be eligible after twenty-five
years service The movement is
meeting more or less opposition
among teachers who object to the
contributing of a portion of their
pay, and they ask, "Who wants to be
a teacher for 25 years."

What About That Attic? ?

new clothes and who ought to put
the money, and the old clothing.

But most of these old clothes are
only cluttering the attics and in
creasing the fire risk.
Why not rummage the attics and

under proper auspices and care, in
this way giving prompt and practical
relief to much suffering among the
