EFFORT TO BRING

As Secretary Of Warren District
Commercial Club, He Conducts
Vigorous Campaign to Secure
Freedoms Famed Relic.

Following his energetic campaign
tn bring the Liberty Bell to Bisbee,
Secretary Joseph II. Gray of the
Warren District Commercial Club, has
taken up the matter directly with the
Liberty Bell Committee in Philadel-
phia and has sent a letter to Charles
Seger chairman of that committee.
The letter contains the request that
the patriotic relic be shipped home
via the most southerly route, SO that
it may stop i'm Bisbee.
Secretary Gray's letter takes up the
matter i'm considerable detail, showing
that compliance with his request
would enable half the people of Arizo-
ma to see the Liberty Bell and the res
idents Of Cochise County, comprising
one-dfth Of the population of the
state. The letter voiced the urgent
desire of the residents Of Bisbee to
see the bell.
Some of the more influential resi-
dents Of the District have been asked
To communicate with Mr.. Seger and
they have promised to do So Judg-
ing from newspaper articles published
in various cities of Arizona, Bisbee is
far more active in the effort 10 secure
a visit from the Liberty Bell than any
other community of the Southwest.

AUTO
APPROPRIATED BY
FELLOW IRA ELERS
Superintendent of Schools, Home
From California, Victim Of
Rude Trick; Nevertheless
Happy and Optimistic.

Superintendent of Schools C. f..
Philbrook grriyed yesterday morning
at his nome in Bisbee, after a two
months absence, during which time
he pursued a special course in school
administration at the University OF
California, as well as enjoying the at
fractions OF several of California's
most famous seaside resorts. super
intendent Philbrook returned in the
best Of health and is optimistic over
the prospects for a successful school
year.
The superintendent return to the
Warren District was by a different
method than he had intended as he
came by train but had expected TO
come via the auto route, by which he
made the eastward journey. In eX-
PLANTATION Of his failure to return in
his new Ford car, Superintendent
Philbrook AYERS that the machine was
appropriated in Los Angeles by his
erstwhle travelling companions, S. s.
Stafford. head of the Bisbee high
school commercial department, and
DOC" Black, Of the Copper Queen as
say office.
The Superintendent, it appears, had
been enjoying a few days at nearby
resort, and, on his return to Los An
geles, found no machine awaiting
him, only a letter at the postonice
containing Blacks return ticket to
Bisbee. SO superintendent Philbrook
adopted the only available method of
procedure and took the first train
Z headed Bisbeeward.
In the meanwhile. Stafford and Black
are leisurely touring the Valentine
State in superintendent Philbrook' IS
auto. They should at least receive
due credit for furnishing the Superin
tendent with means Of transportation
homeward. 1t appears that they were
aware that he was obliged TO make a
prompt return to Bisbee and, there
fore, would be unable to accompany
them on the journey through Arizona
which they much desired to make
So they took no chances on the Sup
erintendent's returning home in the
machine, appropriating that before he
had a chance to object. In his first
fit of disgust. Superintendent Phil
brook is reported TO have expressed
the hope that they would get strand
ed on the Arizona desert but he hal
lrelented little now.
