Aio-A Town Made To Order

There Is town 43 miles south of ella Bend, Arz-
and about 80 miles southwest Of Tucson, known as AJo
or Coruelia There seems to be some confusion OF
names The town took the OF Alo from the dis
trict in which is located and Cornela from the 1ac
that the biggest thing there is the New Corneia Cop
per company
Aio is good model for the communities which
will start in the southwest from time to time as AJo
started not many months ago. 1t is made to order
town.
1t was first determined whether or not there was a
mine on which to base towns livelihood Under the
direction of Capt John C. Greenway, general manager
of the Calumet and Arizona Mining company, OF which
the New Cornelia is subsidiary, drilling was started
and few months work was sufficient to prove that ap
proximatey 100000 tons of IA percent copper ore
be obtained
special teaching process to suit the peculiar ore
conditions was worked out by the companys chemists
and metallurgists and test mill was erected to prove
the correctness of the treatment Everything was then
in readiness for the town.
Knowing that living conditions in most mining camps
were bad for number of years after their beginning
Capt Greenway decided Ajo should be model town
He EMPLOYED experts to Law out the town. All the
streets of Aio are graded The water and sewer sys-
TENS are 20 percent complete plaza has been laid out
and finished. It has fine bandstand and dancing
pavilion, all electric lighted.
Construction of blocks Of business houses has been
commenced They include cooperative store building.
bank restaurant pool hail. moving picture theater and
so on The company is also building very Presentable
railroad depot for the railroad which was constructed
through its direction from ella Bend to Ajo Soon the
company expects put automobile line to con-
vey passengers from the depot uptown.
How is that for corporation paternalsm?

NIGHT Swimmer IS
Drowned in Stadium
in Swollen Red River

The third flood in the Red river
within the past three months claimed
it's first victim about IL o'clock last
night when John George, Is years of
age, son of Mrs. Charlotte George,
drowned while swimming in the deep
water that covers the Fargo college
stadium.
Up to o'clock this afternoon the
body had not been recovered, although
the police and volunteer helpers have
been dragging the vicinity where 1t
is believed the young man went down,
since his drowning was reported to
the police about midnight.
George was in company with l..
Lyons and Albert Pull. They secured
a boat about dark last night and rowed
to the stadium, where they were SWIM
ming in the deep water that covers
that field. 1t seems that they would
row awhile and then swim, and kept
UP the performance until they became
tired. About the time Lyons and Pull
were ready to leave the water. George
swan some distance from them. and
when they finally were ready to leave
the water, they called to him. There
was no response to their calls. and the
two began a search for their COM
pan1on.
The two young men are not certain
where George went down. although
they believe they heard struggling in
the water, and it was in that vicinity
that the search began. 1t is not be-
lieved possible that George could have
