BOYS DANCE A
 BIG SUCCESS

The social dance at the Williams Opera House, Feb 14th given by The Young Mems Entertainment Association, was perfect success, socially and financially.
 Music furnished by Geo. Barnes, director, and the following young men Messrs. Ross, Klock, and Campbell. Mrs. M. A. Young ac- companist assisted by Miss Wolfe.
 The music was inspiring and the twenty numbers on the program were danced with vim to the last.
 The refreshments were in charge of Mrs. G. Fitzglbbon assisted by Mrs. F. J. Reid, The following ladies furnished delicious cakes and salads, Mrs. M. A. Young, Mrs. G. Barnes, Mrs. Poison, Mrs. Reid, Mrs Clark, Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Fitzgibbon, Mrs. M. c, Smith, Mrs. Corb Wolfe, Mrs. Dickerson, Mrs. John Campbell, Mrs. Willis, and the Misses Shivers, Wolfe, Sine, Woolsey, and Owens.
 MT. Fitzgibbon stood at the door and of course did not let any guilty nickle escape. One lady remarked she was afraid he would make a mistake and ask if they wanted pork chops thick or thin, beef, or mutton.
 The ladies were prettily gowned and the gentlemen well groomed.
 The Opera House was cheerful sight with new paper and fresh paint. The boys spared neither expense or labor to have everything in perfect order.
 The ladies of Rebecca Lodge kindly loaned the use of their dish es and banquet hall for which the Committee wish to extend their thanks.
 Several couples came over from Flagstaff, Ashfork, Anita and sur rounding ranches.
 The Opera House is for rent for social dances or entertainments. A safe and sanitary hall. -

THE PRICE SHE PAID"
Dramatization of Philips
 Novel Draws Good House.

One of the most powerful stories ever told, and yet at the same time one relieved with laughs and thrills and common sense, is 'The Price She Paid" dramatization of Da- vid Graham Philips gripping nov el of the same title. It was played to large audience at the Fl Paso theater yesterday afternoon and last night. It will be repeated again tonight.
 The production is finished one - complete in every detail and an exact duplicate, it is said, of the original New York production.
 The subject matter of the play has to do with the efforts of a wealthy man to induce a pure girl to become his commOn-law wife. Circumstances arise which enable the wealthy man to tell the girl that if she does not join him in this proposed alliance he will send her brother to prison, thus bringing humiliation to her and the other members of the family.
 It is battling against such odds as this that bring out the firmness and wonderful spirit in the girls character. The bitter fight she wages against the wiles of the millionaire, her uphill battle to save her brother from a prison ers' cell and her final triumph at the end of the play present dramat- ic possibility that has never been equaled before in the drama.
 "The Price She Paid," which is headed by no less talanted actress than Sylvia Summers, is easily the hest written, best produced and best presented comedy drama of the season.-El Paso Times

OAK CREEK ECHOES

MT. David Lay has gone to Pres colt where he will visit for a week or ten days with the Stringfield family.
 MT: Jesse Purtyman has been spending few days with his family here, returning to the road work up the creek on Monday. He says that in months time the road will be completed to the upper creek. Then wagons will be able to make the trip to Flagstaff by the new route. When all the short cuts are made it will be only about 2S miles to town by this new route. And the road passes through world of beautiful scenery.
 MT. Lee Vanderen has been to Flagstaff on a business mission and to visit with his brother Walter who has been in Flagstaff for some time under the doctors care. Walt has been suffering with some huge car buncles. He is considerably better now than he has been for some time. Lee returned Wednesday morning and reports the roads in very bad condition.
 Pruning has begun in earnest in the orchards on the creek and the small boys are hiding out after school so they won't have to clean up the brush after the pruners. It appears that there is going to be an early spring. The buds are quite prominent on the trees. There is to be big dance on the night of the 18th inst. at the school house on Middle Verde, known as the Aultman District. The young Lotharios of the Sedona settlement are all making preparations to go. Middle Verde is about "A miles from here. They will leave on horse-, back Friday morning, returning Sat urday night.
 Again there are no more sick people about Sedona. It was thot that the humps had started on tour of the settlement but it proved not so to the great satisfaction of the natives.
 The past few days the creek has been up quite little every evening.
 That being due to the melting of the snow in the mountains. It is said that up on the rim, every thing is afloat.

For Red Cross Work.

Coincident with the appointment by the
President of day of special prayer for
world peace the Red Cross has requested
that on that day collection be taken for
its splendid work.
How much this organization is doing
for the sufferers on those fields of carnage
that are extending themselves on Eu-
ropean soil, no man among us can know.
One may always have the satisfaction that
comes from the realization that every
dollar given to this work is wisely ex-
pended.
Therefore, the undersigned pastors Of
the community, announce that on Sunday
next, Oct. 4, special collection will be
taken in their respective churches for the
work of the Red Cross, and earnestly urge
their parishioners to come prepared to
contribute literally to this end.

Harry c. Woodward, general manager of
the Sears, Roebuck Shoe factories at
Springvale, and no has been connected
with that company for the past four years,
was given a pleasant surprise Saturday
afternoon when the foremen and other
heads OF the various departments gath
cred about him and presented him with
purse OF 800 in gold. This gift was a
farewell token of the high esteem in
which Mr.. Woodward is held by his en-
ployees. The gift was presented by
Howard Burr who in behalf of the entire
company present paid Mr.. Woodward the
highest of tribute and spoke feelingly of
his departure. Mr.. Woodward was at first
SO overcome with establishment that he
could hardly express his feelings, but as
soon as he recovered from the surprise he
expressed his most sincere appreciation
for the gift. Mr.. Woodward has been in
Springvale four years, and the past year he
has been general manager Of both these
large shoe factories. He rendered his
resignation a few weeks ago to accept q
responsible position with the Marston
Brock Co., at Hallowell. Mr.. and Mrs.
Woodward and family have made wide
circle of friends during their stay in
Springvale, and it is needless to say that
they will be greatly missed. The best
wishes of every person in Springvale go
with MIR. Woodward to his new field of
labor.-Springuale Correspondent Port

Saturday afternoon.
The boy, on his bicycle, rode onto the
wharf at Eggemoggin. There was no one
about, ana just how he happened to fall
from the wharf will never be known. He
may have been blown off by squa1 that
struck about that time, or the wheel may
have skidded or struck some obstacle and
thrown him off.
His cries for help brought neighbors to
the wharf, but they were just in time to
see him sink for the last time. The body
was recovered.
