Word from Julius A.

Goodwin was a graduate of the Tempe Normal with the 1913 class, leaving here last year for Ann Arbor, where he put in about six months of last term of school This summer he spent in northern Michigan, but school opened a week ago and he is now back in Ann Arbor for the winter. The 1000 students enrolled in college. there, alongside the $50 at Tempe Normal, is quite a change, but Goodwin is the same prominent fellow among his student friends there that he was during his three years attendance at the local institution

 The management of the local thea = ter has been taken over by Russell c. Page on account of the departure from Hayden of George c. Johnson, who has so ably administered it's affairs for the past two years. MT. and Mrs. Johnson left Friday in their Ford car for a sightseeing trip through the northern part of the state, after which they will move to Southern California.
 A delightful dance as a farewell af fair to Mrs. George Johnson was given at the Shelter club house on Wednesday evening, at which Mrs Anderson, Mrs. Murray and Mrs Palmer were the charming hostesses There was a large and cOngenial gathering of the friends of the honor guest, and to the sweet strains of splendid music they danced and made merry to a late hour. Most excellent fruit punch was dispensed all through the evening from a large cut glass bowl arranged on the east end of the spacious porch. The evening was a most enjoyable one, but there was a tone of sadness from the thought of the early departure of the honor guest

TEMPE
TEMPE FARMERS CREATE
 NEW DRAINAGE DISTRICT
Unanimous Vote Cast at Saturdays Election on Organization of
 District

By the affirmative vote of every property holder in the proposed dis trict, Drainage District No. l of Maricopa county, including several thousand acres of land lying to the south of Tempe, was officially ere ated at the election held Saturday at the Kyrene school house. Despite rain, water and mud, every rancher interested in the drainage system that is being planned paid a visit to the polls and cast positive vote favoring the organization of the district.
 The establishment of the new dis trict will mean the reclamation of thousands of acres of the best land in the Salt River Valley and the area thus restored to cultivation being contiguous to Tempe, will mean added prosperity to this town.
 The promoters of the new district are proceeding with the utmost con- fidence in organization and taking the system. The success of the old Jen- kins ditch, mile south and a mile west of Tempe. that at one time so well drained the land in that vicinity, is ample proof of the practicability of drainage in this section, where the water is at points too near the sur face to make the growing of all va rieties of crops successful.
 The bond election is next in order for the new work. It will be held at as early a date as lawful proceed ings will allow.
 Petitioners for the creation of the new drainage district in this section are these men, all residents of Mari copa county and holders to titles of agricultural lands situated within the boundaries of the proposed dis trict: Alfred H. Celtygen, c. G. Jones, B. F. Saylor, B. A. Redden l. M Saylor, Mark Redden, W. R. Redden, w. NJ. Ray, O. c. Watson John Pemberton, NJ M. Barkdoll Mahlong Brown, D. J. Frankenburg L. F. Redden, J. B.
