in many places the pipe is laid over twenty feet in the ground, |, not because of frost but due to the topography of the country. Im- mense septic tanks are being built to catch the sewage. Six inch water mains are inclosing the blocks as lad out and fire plugs are to be placed at the corners. The streets are being graded pre- paratory to laying of cement side walks and curbs. A park about five acres in extent is located in the center of the town and is al- ready set out in trees. In the spring, lawns and flowers are to be planted. It has not been decided yet whether trees will border the streets, but it seems that the inn provemept will be made.
 I53 houses are occupied and the others are rapidly being utilized. The permanent houses are built of brick and rooted with the best of composite material. Most of the houses now completed are four roomed built square with porch in front and some with porches both front and rear. The bungalow is in evidence and most of the resi- dences for the head men of the whole works will be in that and other modern styles.
 No permanent business houses have as yet been erected but work on them will soon be begun. It is understood that parties desiring a business location must lease the ground needed and then build according to the company regula. tions. All structures in that sec. ton must be fire proof in every detail.

American Redman, do not include
 the noble-spirited, independent,
 never-to- be- made slave of Nav ajo. Even as an old man he is
 with his friends, as full of fun as an American schoolboy, the spirit of joy and life never seem to die in him, he is not broken in mind and body by the everlasting greed that the so-called civilization of the Caucasian brings--from his view point, he is clean and happy in his morals and there is no Mann Act" to force him. He takes unto himself another wife, by the consent of the wife he already has, and not through revelation and the consent of his church, nor through the courts and the con. sent of a Judge. To steal virtue from the innocent or another's wife, he is not patted on the back and called live-one, but ostra. cised and shunned as a dead-one

rocks of broken promises and con- tracts. The Navajo is jolly, witty and happy because he is upright, noble and fearless; because he; in his tribal traditions and religion, recognizes that "Man's, Word is God in Man.
 He is young and carefree all his life and puts no value on time, but, makes life one sweet song, caring for his people, his flocks and his word. He will spend weeks and weeks plotting and planning to play a joke or prank on his friends, both paleface and redmen and how he will laugh, whether successful or unsuccess- full, not a hard, dry apology of a laugh but a clear out and out laugh of good nature in the fun of the joke and of the joy of life.
 If from your view point, think he is giving you the worst of it, do not condemn him until you get over to his side and see where he stands, and if you are possessed with the same noble qualities that he is, and actuated by the same sense of justice and fairness you will reach a fair and square under standing. His wit and humor is unlimited and those who have lived with him and speak his tongue can while the time merrily away listening to his jokes and stories of his hunts when he sat around the campfires, and the eyes of wild animals gleamed like emeralds in the shadows, who knows but that the Navajo, the greatest and noblest and ever ln- creasing tribe of redmen, may some day be, the handful ot Spar itans in the gap of our civiliza- ton.

Clarkdale

The newest of shelter cities, Clarkedale, is located on the west bank of the Verde river five miles in an easterly direction from Jerome. It is reached by rail from Cedar Glade on the 5. F. E. & P. R. R. The line from Cedar Glade to Clarkdale is known as the Verde Valley R. R., and is forty miles in length. It winds along the course of the Verde and passes through some remarkable scenery.
 The present town of Clarkedale comprises about 300 completed houses and 50 more under con- struction. The new smelter will rank with the largest in the state and is about half completed. The entire plant will cover nearly fifty acres. The main and central building is just at present founda- dation, the steel work to begin soon. Many of the buildings now accessory to the old works will be moved to serve for the new plant upon the closing of the old one.
 There are about one hundred and ten structural steel workers employed on the shelter besides twenty-five or thirty cement and wood workers. The stack which is to be four hundred feet high and thirty-hve feet in diameter is now one hundred and fifty feet high. All the brick and iron work is done by contract and the bal ance is done by the United Verde Copper company.

 The longer you live with the Navajo the more you respect and love him. Tennyson says: Mans word is God in Man., and it can be truly applied to the Navajo. There are no laws to enforce him to keep his agreements, all his dealing is on the honor system, and no man who is on the square with him has found him wanting. Put us on the honor system, with out the enforcement of law, and without the fear of punishment and all the combined riches of our multi-millionaires centralized in one business would be in short period hopeless wreck on the

none of stinglness nor niggardli. ness, but is generous to a fault
 and through it has been imposed upon and robbed in his dealings by interruptions outsiders. He
 has none of the cringing servile qualities but is Navajo through
 and through, not paying homage to pauper, prince nor king. When his children go away from the Hogan to school, he is lavish in his gifts and on the many occa- sions of his visits to see them, showers them with good things to eat, and if short of money does not hesitate to cut off the silver from his clothing or the turquoise from his ears so that his little ones remember his comings as a gen. erous and bountiful father, with
 tears of joy trickling down his
 cheeks, that to the heart of the
 child are like diamonds to the eye.
 The mothers also need no lap dog nor maltese cat to share their love; the child of their breast absorbs their very life, and the mattress of the deserts warm sands with the little ones huddled
