1t is hard to part from an en-
ploye after seven years of faithful
and efficient service, but when that
service has been rendered with never
a complaint, a cross word or a scowl
the parting is as sad as it is hard.
BY his unassuming efficiency, his
steadfast loyalty, his constant cheer
fulness and his quiet kindness, San
ford Soad has endeared himself to
every member of The Herald force
and they all join in this little tribute
to his worth as a co-worker and his
skill as a pressman. On account OF
the poor health of his wife he has
decided to go back to his old home
in Michigan and he will take with
him the friendship and best wishes
of each one of the men who have
worked with him and by daily con-
tact have learned to appreciate his
many good qualities.

His name is Bill. His fathers name was Otis, Jr.. and his mother is reg istered in the books of the American Trotting Association as Sadie View.
 Bill is only eight months old and about SIS large as full sized Great Dane dog. but he has the spirit Of both his dam and sire in his sleek little body.
 Bill occupies a large box stall in the barn of Lester Selman, the train CT and driver of race horses at the state fair grounds. and when Bill has cuddled down in his deep bed of new straw there is not enough of him showing to make one think the stall had an occupant.
 Bill is one of those freaks of equine horse flesh known as natural double gaiter." In other words he trots or paoes equally well and though Sel- man has entered him as a trotter in the coming meeting, he is not abso- lutely sure but what he will event ually make Bill into a pacer that will make them all open their eyes

 After a great deal of disscussion and writing army officers and others, Secretary Shaughnessy and the mo- torcycle boys decided that g race from Hermosillo will be liable to have too many thrills. There are so many un- attached gentlemen of fortune peram- bulatirg the roads and highways of Mexico at present, who shoot at any swiftly moving object before they question it's right to be moving swift ly that the boys sensibly decided against the route Then again cer- tain army officers advised against it. giving as their reason that some of Villas troops were raiding up into Sonora and would doubtless object if any of the racers crossed their path.
 So after a deal of telegraphing it was decided to make the course from Springerville to Phoenix, with Flag staff as the night control station
