CHANGE OF OFFICERS
NeU Faces Behind The Desks In
 The Court House.

On Monday, the 4th, all the newly elected and appointed of ficers of the new regime were in full control of their offices. In the Superior Court, Judge Sapp retained his seat, he being the only officer reelected. Lloyd c. Henning succeeded w. B. Woods as Clerk of the Superior Court. MT. Henning has for a number of years been connected with the Navajo Apache Bank as Assist ant Cashier. He still retains his position with the bank, where he puts in his overtime. Mrs. Ruth c. Kelly has taken a posi- tion with the bank and looks after the interest of the patrons of that institution during the busi ness hours.
 In the Sheriff's office Lee Newman succeeds former sheriff Jos. F. Woods. and w. G. Gle mons succeeds Under Sheriff Chas. Osborn. Lees face is familiar to the general public, although a new one. behind the desk. MT. Clemons 'is a new man is the country. coming from Montasaso, Washington, and has all the appearance of the man who will make good. Sheriff Newman's deputies will all be new men in office, but they are all old timers in the country. At Winslow the deputies will be Chas. F. Moss and Fred Vollmer, while Harry Ellsworth, of Show Low, will be the upper country deputy.
 Another new yet familiar face is that of J. w. Richards, the new County Treasurer, who sue ceeds L. D. DlveIbess. MT. Rich ards served the county as it's treasurer. from 1905 to 1909. two terms being the limit by law. He was succeeded bp MT. Divel- bess, who has just completed two terms. MT. Richards is one of the kind who can stay a few years and then come back.
 In the office of the County Re corder, we find Miss Dee Moss, Navajo County's first woman off, ficlal. She succeeds Wallace Larson as County Recorder and Clsrk of the Board of Supervisors. Miss Moss has lived in Winslow several years, but is not widely known through the county. She has had several years experience in abstract as well as office and county work. There is no ques- tion she will make good. Miss Nate Hay, the new Deputy Re corder, is also from Winslow, where she has lived for some time. Miss Hay ism novice in a record er's office ;she is qualified in every respect for the position, having been several years in the record CTS office of Dennison County, Texas, with her father and bro- ther, who both served as re- corder for that county.
 In the office of the Superinten- dent of Schools another new but familiar face appears behind the typewriter, that of Prof. Joseph Peterson, of Lakeside. who suc- ceeds R. c. Smith. MT. Peter son served several years as the head of the Snowflake Academy and just naturally quit about a year ago to get out of worK, and went to farming. The people, however. thought that the Pro- fessor's talents should be used for higher purpose, so without regard to the old saying that "a pedagogue has too many hobbies to be a good school superinten- dent" we look for a successful administration and know that he will give us the best.
 In the Assessors office we come upon another new face in the person of Fay Gardner, who
