in comparison to others when pop

than in Arizona but milk COWS,

The Wjnslow Laundry has
been taken over by F 7 La
Prade, and hereafter he will con-
duct the Laundry and give the
public excellent service.
A good laundry is something
badly needed in a community as
large as WinsloW, and should be
patronized by the residents, all
things being equal, civic pride
alone should convince our res
idents, that it is to their interest
to patronize Home Industries.
Every dollar paid d home instit-
ution remains in the town, ev-
cry dollar sent out of town re-
mains out.
Mr.. La Prade has an up-to-
date plant, an efficient force and
can and does do, as good wash
ing as any out-of- town laundry.

Junior Class of w. H. S. at the
Proctor home. No one exper-
fenced dull moment during the
evening. The Rostesses, Miss
May Proctor and Miss Ruby Cas-
SIN, introduced the lively game
Of tumble in" in which those
present showed great enthus-
iasm. Bridge and Five Hundred
together with other amusements
were followed by dainty lunch
con. Instructive remarks from
the class advisor, Mr. G. w.
Brubaker concluded most en-
joyable evening.
The Chemistry class cleaned
house Thursday. Everything is
bright and shining including the
students.
The three act comedy "The
Runaways" which is to be pre-
Isented by the Junior Class Feb.

progressing with a vim.
The Junior-Senior Cooking
class have completed the work
with light bread. Several meth
DDS were used and all results
proved favorable.
! The Snowflake Winslow basket
ball game, to which we have
! been looking forward with great
anticipation, and noticeable
bristling of the hair on the back
OF our necks, is at last scheduled
for Saturday, Feb. 13. We hope
this is final as the game was
scheduled once before only to be
postponed indefinitely. Snow
flake is one of the crack teams of
the state, and W. H. S. isn't
slow. Everybody come. show
your colors, see a good game and
get your moneys worth. We
went in the hole about fifty dol
lars on the Jerome game, so a
good crowd for this game will
help put us square with the
world.
We seniors had a special meet
ing Monday and decided upon
some very important issues,
which must be kept secret for a
short time.
Don't forget "Our Aunt from
| California, " to be given by the
senior girls in combination with
the regular picture show at the
Electric Saturday, Feb. 6, 1915.
By the way, we seniors are
