 Springs advent Is recognized. The recognition came last Wednesday night when the directors of the Com mercial Club selected Auril II as the date for the proposed Disbursements Citizens excursion 10 the Sulphur 1 Springs valley which win be of the nature of a picnic and outing as well as series Of social visits It will be day in the open. Every business man in the district is urged Co take his lunch with him and join the party Co see the valley in its early stages of spring cultivation and Co meet those who are making it Co blossom and to bloom.
 Recognizing the importance of the agricultural industry to the district, the Commercial Club has for some time past contemplaten business mens-citizens' excursion Co meet and get better acquainted with the valley settlers and last Wednesday night a committee composed Of Jesse Yoa- kun. E. W. Beddow. F. C. Campbell. M. Newman. B. l.. Smith and J R. Henderson. with Yoakum as chairman was named to arrange and carry into effect plans for the excursion. Weath CT is now considered as se'ded and roads are drying rapidly End should be in the best of con@idon for the ! t-tr. f.-. sTaFs ..4TarFaI
 The work Jf the committee thus far has been in outlining plans. As rany as possible of the business men and citizens of the district win be brought together in party. Those who have automobiles will be listed and it will be ascertained how many people each car can take. Then as- sienments of seats in the different cars will be undertaken
 As the affair will be sopewhat in the nature of an outing, each indiyid- ual will take along picnic lunch The ! trip will be made either via Double Dobe, crossing going and Taylor's windmill returning, or vice versa to l be later determined. A driver can ' feel that there will be SO many cars 1 in the party that if his own should happen to suffer a breakdown he Will be sure of assistance McNeal will be the half way station It is planned to make the trip memorable one.
 Between this city and McNeal in the valley there are several hundred families that have settled in ranch . homes Many of these were formerly residents of this district and are not strangers Others often visit the dis trict to dispose of produce and to make purchases Still others dispose 1 of produce and do their trading at
 Douglas or McNeal. SO opportunity
 will be offered to meet all Of these classes.
 It is surprising how many residents
 of Bisbee and Lowell are unaware
 what is being done in the Sulphur Springs valley and of its rapid settle. ment They read of it in the papers but have little appreciation of this | modern pioneerins lt is hard to gain
 any real appreciation till it is seen
 SO this outing will serve to open the
 eyes of those who have never, or have
 not recently, visited the sections of
 the valley that will be covered. Not a few will learn for the first time
 just what is at their door yard lt will be a surprise to them.
 That the trip will be great success
 is already assured The idea is beina
 accepted with eagerness by all whom
 the committee have thus far seen and is promises to be far greater than any
 similar excursion Chat has ever be
 Fore been undertaken anywhere ir Southern Arizona.
