FROM THE PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION

President formally by proc
 lamation designated Thursday November 30 as Thanksgiving
 day. ''It has long been the custom of our people to turn in the fruitful autumn of the year in praise and thanksgiv- ing to the Almighty God for his many blessings to us and to the nation. The year that has elapsed since the last Thanks giving has been one of peace and prosperity to us, but the whole face of the world has been darkened by war. In the midst of our peace and happi- ness we cannot look upon the struggles and sufferings of the nations at war and upon the people upon whom the year has brought war, without pity. We cannot think of our own happiness without thinking of their pitiful destruction.
 Therefore, I, Woodrow Will son, president of the United States, do appoint Thursday, the thirtieth day of November, as a day of national thanksgiv- ing, and prayer, and urge and advise the people to resort to their several places of worship on that day to render thanks to the Almighty God and I also urge and suggest our duty in this, our day of peace and a. bundance to think of those upon whom the curse and ter TOT of war have so pitilessly fallen, and to contribute out of our abundant means to their aid"

GALLEY 1 A NEW ERA FOR THEY'LL.
 LIAMS NEWS

The Williams News having outgrown it's facilities for the handling of the volume of busi- ness which has come to it, has installed a linotype machine. This machine will handle the composition for the paper and assist materially in ad and job work. The growth of Will jams and the development of the surrounding country call for the improvement which the News has made and the News in turn will be better able to aid in further advancing the growth of the town and in the development of the surround ing country. !
 The fact that the newspaper interests of Williams demand an enlargement of the News is an assurance that Williams is on a firm basis and is des- tined to become an important industrial center. The possi- bilities of Williams are really and truly great and her future, if these possibilities are fully developed, will be brilliant. It is the purpose of the News to assist in every way possible in the upbuilding of Williams, as 1t has done in the past. The new equipment will enable the News to work with greater po- tency and 1t enters upon the new era ahead with great de- gree of cheerfulness.

Let the Law Be enforced

 Early in December the new tuition of Arizona goes into eff feet. The passage of this law by an overwhelming majority, shows conclusively that the people of Arizona want the state dry. Then let the state be dry! Whatever excuse for laxity the executive officers of the state and counties may have had under the old law, they can have no excuse for laxity under the new.
 The News wishes to assure the officers of Coconino- county that it earnestly desires to aid them in the enforcement of the law in this county. Any pub licity that will assist them in this work, the News will gladly give. In addition to that we will endeavor to acquaint the people with the efforts of these officials and to enlist their CO., operation in assisting the off, cers in the effective enforce ment of the prohibatory law.

The attempt of the Health Commissioner of Chicago to prove that a person can live on 40 cents a day wont win much credit among people of small means, for they are living on less now-hundreds of thous- ands of them. The Commis- sioner reports that the persons used for the experiment have actually gained on the ration, and that is very probable; for the ration is better, we suspect than the diet squad is used to. How would you like to starve on breakfast of boiled oats stewed prunes, buttered toast and cerial or coffee; lunch of lamb fricasse, with dumplings, Waldorf salad, bread and but ter and tea; for dinner, split pea soup, roast veal, boiled rice cold slaw, bread pudding and tea?

We note by a recent copy of the Coconino Sun that the county has decided to give Flagstaff two miles of cinders on the road east of the town. That's mighty fine for Flag staff, but when is Williams to have her turn? Flagstaff now has good many miles of cin- der road running in different directions from the town. We have none. Why not give Will Hams at least amile of cinder road out on one of our best scenic drives, for the coming year? The canyon road south of Williams cannot be excelled anywhere, for beauty, but the road is almost impossible. The people of Williams will appre- ciate receiving their shaln6 the cinders.

REPORT OE
 RED LAKE FARMING

lkCo hcthS 11eto CN1iASN OSN " reputation for enterprise and her farmers will succeed, if success is possible in northern Arizona. The News has told of the success of one Red Lake farmer and this week tells the story of the beginning of sue cess for another.
 MT. H. D. Boulin is the man this time He has 16O acre homestead in the Red Lake valley, 125 acres of which are good blow land. MT. Boulin has just made a start but the result of his limited farming is very encouraging. He has 30 acres in cultivation now, but had only. 12 acres in crop in '16. He had one acre in pota- toes from which he dug IA sacks. He put 4 acres to corn and harvested 20 tons of fine fodder. He put three acres to pink beans and gathered 16 sacks. He sowed one acre to Sudan grass and stacked 2 tons of hay.
 In addition to the crops har- vested which were the product of MT. Boulin's labor, mention should be made of 65 sacks of fine potatoes which were a gra- tuity of dame Nature. These potatoes were volunteer, grow ing on the corn ground, so that the four acres planted to corn should be credited with the volunteer potatoes. It is not infrequent for potatoes to keep thru the winter and seed the GALLEY 12 .,t ground of this country and make a pretty good crop.
 Putting MT. Boulin's farming operations upon a financial ba- sis we find that he harvested crops of the value shown be- low:
 IA sks. potatoes O $2 $228.Oo 20 tons fodder O $14 --2S0.OO 128O lbs beans O 9c--115.2O 2 t. Sudan grass O $20-- 4O.OO 65 sks. volunteer pota-
 tatoes CO $2.5O -----162.5O Garden truck -------1OO.OO
 Total --------925.70
 It may be thot hardly fair to credit MT. Boulin with volun- teer potatoes, so we'll take that item off and still have $763.2O. We must include the truck patch, tho little is made of it by the farmer. A good truck patch is worth $10O to any farmer. He has garden "sass" during the growing months and he has vegetables to put away for winter use. $10O is low enough for all this.
 MT. Boulin, then, made his small acreage pay over $60 per acre. With as good success another year on his 30 acres he will have a very good income from his farm.
 MT. Boulin practices the most improved methods of farming for a semi-arid coun- try. He blows in the fall and works his ground in the spring and conserves his moisture with a we'll pulvarized cover
 of soil.

GERMAN GENIUS

Had the genius which Ger many has displayed in war been devoted to peaceful un- dertakings, what wonders she might have accomplished. Op- posed by a ring of powerful na- tions with resources in men and material vastly in excess of hers, she has taken Belgium and Poland and destroyed ser bia and is fast destroying Ru- mania. Her genius for organ ization has made the most of her resources. Her armies have been equipped to the point of maximum efficiency i; her people have been fed on the minimum of subsistence. In the matter of organization she is furnishing the object lessons which are sure to modify the economic systems of the fu- ture. Such genius for making the means meet the end will make production extend much further than has been thot pos sible. there will be such con- servation of resources as only the theorist has contemplated and all due to German genius for systematic organization.
 The German ambition for conquest has overreached it. self and German plans will be defeated, but German genius will be able to exact peace on terms which will be quite hon. orable for the Fatherland.

CITY TICKET

CITY AND SCHOOL ELECTION
The people of this city next
Tuesday, April 4, will be called
upon to elect two aldermen and
twN school directors.
Very little thought has been
made, and very little attention
has been given to the election
this year, and the average citizen
thinks an election in a small town
cuts very little figure, neverthe.
less it is very important matter
and one that should be given
careful consideration. AS yet,
politics have never been entered
into our elections, and we may
be thankful for it. as it leaves the
way open to elect the best and
most efficient material.
AS alderman for q city of this
size, he gets very small pay, in
fact no pay at all for the value of
his services. In a majority of
the cases the Office Is the cause
of much loss of time and hinders
him in his business affair. Then,
this is one reason why q busy
man and one who is really covered
up in business should be elected.
He thus is capable to attend to
the city's affairs as they should
be attended tor with q bust.
ness administration. He should
be willing (since he accepts the
ohice) to devote the best in him
to the interests of the city and
it's people, and he usually does.
Much thought ought to be given
at the election in this city, use
good Judgment and much good
will result.
A director should be Q man
who knows the needs of the
schools and of sufficient intelli-
gence to give it q business like
administration. The progress
and upbuilding Of the school
should be his first aim, all per-
sonal feeling being placed in the
rear. In the choosing of the
faculty, the question should be
asked, rs the applicant compe-
