MARRIED; BOARD SORE
DEMANDS PAY ANYWAY

IF at first you don't succeed try,
try again"
Remember when your school teacher
told you this when a problem con-
founded you? Probably her teacher
said the very same thing to Carrie
Green and she in turn handed it down
to her own pupils out in school dis
trict 40.
Now Carrie Green Billings is going
to put it in practice.
Again she is going after the district
and this time in the sum of s4S750.
Carrie Green married without TAX
ing the board of trustees Of the dis
trict into her confidence knowing that
they had a prejudice against married
women as teachers. She married in
August, 1915, and at the opening of
school in September no one knew that
the good looking chap, who is manager
of the Ford Supply and Plating Com
pany, was her legally welded husband.
When they did find it out they did not
say blessing my children" but instead
handed the bride her walking papers.
That was October 30.
In an application for a writ Of man.
damus the plaintiff, young Mrs. Bill
ings, announced that she was willing to
| compromise and settle any litigation
upon the basis of salary and reinstate-
ment. The board of trustees, j. p. Ivy,
III. F. Homer and Otto Green couldn't
see it that way. They said she had
been lawfully dismissed. AT the time
of her employment they agreed that at
any time her services were not salts
! factory her period of employment
would terminate. And anyway, they
added, she married.
} From a point of law the case came
/ up before the superior court time and
again and finally in June it was dis
missed. The new suit against the dis
trict was filed yesterday. The plain
tiffs, Carrie Green Billings and hel
husband, A. a. Billings, allege that the
board of trustees acted arbitrarily and
without cause and failed to give the
plaintiff opportunity to defend her
self. For the breach of contract She
asks $4S7.50.

was one of the best advertisements
that Flagstaff has ever hao.
Several hundred Navajo and Hopi
Indians We're in the town as the re-
suit OF the Elks offering accommoda-

tend. They encamped south of the
race tracks and thronged the streets
during the hours they were not at
the race track. Mr.. James Swim
merton the cartoonist, was in charge
of the Indian events.
The celebration was begun with a
monster parade. which was reviewed
by Governor Hunt and other state
officials. The parade started at EN-
merson school and proceeded up Sit
greaVes street to the corner of Sit
greaves and San Francisco At this
point the parade was halted and an
old historic flag presented to the
governor, who in turn will later pre-
sent the flag to the state. After the
presentation speech and a short but
appreciative speech from the gov
