MT Cloud of Los Angeles, passed thru Williams last week Friday, on his way to the Canyon. He is travelling on foot. His baggage,
 consisting of a camping outfit and clothing, is carried in home made cart drawn by a donkey. Another part of his baggage which should not be overlooked is a stereopticon with set of views illustrating the life of Christ. MT. Cloud left on his way to the Grand Canyon last Friday. There he will take num- Der of views. From the Canyon he will again pass thru Williams on his way to Los Angeles and other western points. He plans to stop in Williams next Tuesday and give an illustrated lecture on "the Life of Christi" This will be given at the Methodist church at s, o'clock.

natural sweetness and goodness

natural sweetness and goodness. It hardly seems possible that she was acting that part. It seemed as tho the play was written just to play up her real self. In either case she exemplified her art at it's highest.
 A strong tribute to the photo play itself, is the fact that while it was plainly problem or moral play, the audience forgot this fact during the entire performance. It appeared only as a part of real life. It's lesson was dri ven home forciblv for that reason. It taught the truth of the quotation, "As Ye Sow So Shall Ye Reap" more forcibly than many sermons could have done. In such plays, the motion picture theatre becomes a influence for good.

Others think the slump in meat prices will be felt in the war zone instead. At any rate, if all the stray dogs are run in there will be a large supply for disposal in some way.

VALUABLE DEVICES FOR
 THE MILK PLANT

Many operators of milk plants
 will, in the opinion of specialists of the department, find it profitable to install recording thermometer and an automatic apparatus for controlling the temperature during pasteurization. When pasteuriza- tion is incompletely done, lack of proper temperature control is fre- quently found to be the cause.
 Adequate control of the temperature
 by means of hand valves is difficult and often impossible. On the other
 hand there are many automatic devices which accomplish this with great accuracy. Their cost is com
 monly less than $50 and allowing a maximum depreciation of 20 per cent and interest this makes the daily overhead expense for the regulator about Il cents Or less than the value of mans time for one hour. As matter of fact, without automatic control, a man has to spend the greater part of his time at the steam valve if the tempera- ture is to be kept within the proper limits. The amount of steam re- qulred to operate the automatic device is less than that which would otherwise be wasted.
 Frequent variations in tempera- ture, which it is almost impossible to prevent with hand valves, may not only injure the cream line but produce, as well, unsatisfactory results. from the bacteriological and chemical standpoints. For this reason some of the larger cities now require the dealers to put in tenn perature regulators, and there is reason to believe that others will | follow their example in the near future.
 The recording thermometer is desirable as a means of self protec- ion, as it provides a record of the 'emperature of the milk during the vhold days run and thus enables he superintendent to keep reliable ,heck on the operator at times when 1e. himself. is not able to be present. In case of any difficulty with customers or health officers the 'ecord provides very valuable and convincing evidence. At the present ime neither the recording ther- nometer nor automatic temperature egulator is in as general use as it mould be.

Too Many Girls.

 The editor of the Winslow Mail might trke a little consolation from the fact that the boys seem to have the best of it in the contest for numbers up this way.
