DESERT OF MORALES.
Shriners to Hold a Ceremonial Ses.
 sion Here Some Time in May.

The NOgaleS ShrlnerS have made their usual pilgrimage to the Meca at Phoenix. Nobles l.. w: Mix and Bracey Curtis represented Nogales, from the Old Guard Nobles Dave Loeb, Vic Thornton and H. J. Temple from the class of 1914, and the novices for this year were Judge w. A. O'Connor, Joseph B. Wise, w. E. Karns, Capt. Wick ham and H. Gordon Glore. The latter were put through and are now all 'Illustrious Nobles of the Mystic Shrine.''
 During the visit, it was pro- posed by Shirley Christy, the Illustrious Potentate of Fl Zari- bah Temple, that under. certain conditions the Shrine would fold up it's tents and move away, bag baggage, to the Desert of No gales and hold Ceremonial Session here some time the lat ter part of May. As this favor is very difficult to obtain, Noble Mix, who is the special repre- sentative from the Desert of Nogales, and Bracey Curtis, an assistant director, immediately availed themselves of the offer and proceeded to carry out the arrangement, Therefore,
 1. All Nobles of the Mystic Shrine in and about the Desert of Nogales, please take notice and govern yourselves accord ingly:
 We are required to have a class of twenty-five novices here for that occasion. This will in sure the coming of Ell Zaribah Temple and Ceremonial Session in this place. It behooves each and every Shriner in particular to do his best to carry out the good work.
 2. To"THE SCOTTISH RITE MASONS: It behooves you all to prepare yourselves so that you may become novices for the Shrine.
 To THE BLUE LODGE MASoNs It behooves> you all to do every thing that lies in your power to assist in the good work.
 4. To THE CHAMBER OF COM MERGE: It behooves you to take advantage of this opportunity to show what our town can do for the entertainment of visitors and incidentally to add to our record AS entertainers.
 5. To ALL CITIZENS OF Mo- GALES WHO ARE INFESTED IN THE WELFARE OF THE TOWN: Let us all stand in and work for the, best interest of and for our town.
 Here is a grand opportunity ot which we should avail ourselves.
 1U IS SuSSSSCOo, o11o III elAi probability the suggestion will be carried out, that a moving picture company, headed by Noble Romaine Fielding, start with the caravan from Phoenix and take all interesting events upon the trip, to form film called "The Pilgrimage from Phoenix to Nogales and Views Therein As this film will con- tain only public exercises, it cer- tainly will be a grand affair for our town, and add outside enter tainment for the public and something that may be notable and lasting to appear upon said film for the glory of this town. s We hope that all of the five different parties will form com nIittees and act jointly in this matter for the general good.
 We affix hereto our recon nendatiOnS.

obtained many presents, opened the
days festivities at the White House.
1t was the first Christmas tree seen in
the big mansion in a number of years,

daughter Of Mrs. Anne Cothran.
Members of the Presidents family at
the White House arose late this morning.
They surrounded the Christmas tree at
10 o'clock. 1t had been kept a profound
secret from little Miss Cothran and her
beautiful eyes opened wide in amazement
when she saw the pretty lights and beau
tiful adornments which she was duly in
formed had been left overnight by Santa
Claus She had already received visit
from Santa in the. good old-fashioned way
and when she saw this other manifesto
tion of his goodness she was hardly able
to express her thanks for the thoughtful
ness Of the old gentleman from the north
pole.
Members of Family Present.
Members of the Presidents family at
the White House this morning were Miss
Margaret Wilson, Miss Helen Woodrow
Bones, Mr.. and Mrs. Francis Sayre, whose
little son, one year old, is at Williams
