 The past week has been filled with good times by the students. Wednes- day,;a week, the members of the tax convention that convened here, were invited by Dr. Blome to attend re- ception given in their honor at the school. The visitors were shown throughout all the buildings on the campus, from the class rooms and assembly of the main buildings to the laundries of the dormitories. After the inspection tour of the buildings all gathered together in the dining hall where light refreshments were served. There was orchestra music all during the evening and the recep- ton hall of the dining room was a scene of much gayety until a late hour. All the visiting delegates ex- pressed their appreciation of the visit in many ways and just before leaving an invitation was rendered the student body by tax commissioner c. M. Zan- der, asking that is make the commits sion a visit the following forenoon. Tuesday morning the entire student body marched to the court house in acceptance of the invitation. They spent very pleasant and profitable morning watching the various pro- ceedings that were being carried on by the commission.
 Lase weeks end a number of the young ladies of the school made Oak Creek visit, They left Flagstaff late Friday evening and camped on the road, arriving at Oak Creek early the next morning. All had delightful time.
 Several auto parties made the trip to Grand Canyon Sunday. The roads were in good shape and travelling was great. A party of some twenty stud ents leave town this evening by auto for a weeks end outing at Grand View and Fl Tovar on the canyons rim. A special machine will be taken along for the purpose of carrying camp kits, for all intend to sleep out in the open and enjoy real camp life.
 Friday night student dance will be given at the dining hall. This will be the last dance of the season. Several dances have been given by the students during the winter and summer and all have been termed as most successful.
 Next Wednesday evening at the Majestic theatre the faculty of the school will present Dr. Faustus, tragedy. Prof. Thorpe is taking the leading part as Dr. Faustus. From those who have seen the rehearsals it may be said that the play will meet all expectations of the public.
 Dr. Blome made business trip to Phoenix Tuesday. From what he has said of the heat that they are having in those regions, many of the students from there are wishing that summer school would hold out at least month longer, so that they could en- joy the cool breezes of Flagstaff.
