HE'S NOT FOR
ANY KNOCKING
W. W. Cooley Overhears
Some Sighting Remarks
About Phoenix and Puts
Up Able Defense of This
Great Little City
Nobody need knock nothin'.

Nobody need knock nothln.
W. W. Cooley, representative of the
Burroughs adding machine in the
west, and a regular visitor in Phoenix
for the past seventeen years, says so In
emphatic but well worded terms.
Somebody allowed himself to be caught
aammering this little old community,
Yesterday, and he thereby earned the
following call down at the hands of
Mr.. Cooley:
with most pleasant recollections of
years ago, 1 cannot help but congrat-
ulate this prosperous city on it's mag
nificent growth the many evidences of
which are shown by it's buildings
To-day when other cities throughout
the United States are pessimistic,
find that Optimism-with a capital 'O'
is prevalent in Phoenix. 1t may be
psychological. but it locks development
natural development.
THE glorious sunshine and the great
irrigating system show their true worth
in the exhibit at the plaza L have
heard some people complain of the
heat-and it is generally the sort of a
chap who does not realize that heat
reigns all over the United States, who
holds forth against the weather here
Il am from San Francisco, and I
naturally hand out a talk about my
to have fair over there next year
all year. To that city, the world is in
vited for the exposition. But do you
believe YOU would be more comfortable
in San Francisco than in Phoenix in
summer? 1t may be cooler there, but
ones home town looks mighty good
when one is away from it. No knock
ers among your tourists. Ought to be
none at home,
with such self evident indications
of prosperity, the spirit of contentment
should exist to create that Boosting
Power that will make Phoenix even
more prosperous"
Mr.. Cooley, who deals in flowers as
hobby. and expresses himself in
modern rhymes submits this acrostic:
Prosperous city of plenty,
H Happiness here must prevail:
Onward growing far greater,
Ever success to avail:
Nothing can hinder your progress
I-if you will boost on, and fight as
Nerves did for his kingdom.
