Make Latent Assets Actual
 Factors

In an editorial under the above caption in last weeks News an
 enumeration of Williams latent
 assets which may be made act ual fac! ors in the upbuilding of community interests was begun and our wonderfully salubrious
 climate was mentioned as one.
 To continue this enumeration the News wishes to mention our grane old mountain, incomper- able in it's beauty, Bill Williams.
 Not only is Bill Williams the most beautiful mountain in Arizona but from it's summit. easily ac- cessible, the most wonderful pan orama off, magnificent scenery may be seen in every direction. Plains and mountain peaks are visible as far as human vision reaches even with the aid of field glasses. Here is latent asset which may be made an actual factor by gaining public interest and all that has to be done is to impress upon the minds of those who tour our country for the purpose of view ing our matchless scenery that no pleasure seeking trip is com plete until Old Bill has been climbed and his wonders viewed.
 But some work must be done to prepare Old Bill for the visits of tourists that they may get the most out of the trip and that Old Bills attractions may be properly advertised. A trail up Old Bill should be laid out and prepared which will possess the greatest elements of romance and thrilldom. Then the route should be .thoroly phographed and a booklet prepared giving 2 vivid, descri ption5of the sights tc be gained by the trip with illus trations. A cabin should be built on the top of Bill for the accommodation of those who would wish to spend a night or the mountain. A chart fer tht use of tourists should be pre-
 pared giving the location O
 prominent points in the grand panorama, outspread.
 Then if steps are taken t, ]place the. booklets in the hand. of tourists, very many of those

Ridgeway player piano, offered by
the Edgar Morgan Co. of Memphis,
Tenn, for the largest sales between
Sept. l, 1915, and June 80, 1915.
1t is matter of interest that the

Walker, now of Tampa, who beat Mr..
Boswell by l ITO per cent.
In addition to the Ridgeway piano,

MOOSE LODGE
ENJOYED BIG
SOCIAL AFFAIR
LAST NIGHT

The entertainment given by the
Moose, last evening in their hall,
was one of the most pleasant social
affairs of the season, and for an in
formal function, reflected much cred
it on the members of the lodge, who
arranged the program.
Many members, their wives and in
vited guests were present and spent
the evening most delightfully."-.
Mr.. Eppes Tucker, Jr., was the or
ator of the occasion and delivered
most pleasing address on the Loyal
Order of Moose-its origin, benefits,
social and fraternal features, etc.,
also calling attention to the hand
some painting of the Moose which
adorns the lodge rooms, executed by
a master painter, the name of whom
many are familiar with.
The following program was rem
dered, after which refreshments of
punch, ice cream and cake were
served and enjoyed by every one;
Orchestra selection.
Solo-Miss Johnson.
Vocal Solo-Miss Ann Cardwell.
Music Specialty-Miss Catherine
Carter and Prof. A. R. Marks.
Vocal Duet-Miss Johnson and
Mr.. Berry.
Vocal Solo-Mr. Whitfield, Mrs.
Whitfield accompanying.
Remarks on Moose Heart-Eppes

Music was furnished by Marks
orchestra, the personnel of which
was: Metzger, clarinet; S. Rogow,
cornet; Perconi, flute; r. Mcintyre,
drums; Miss Catherine Carter, piano,
and A. R. Marks, violin.
The Moose Lodge is growing daily,
both in membership and popularity,
and few meeting nights pass with
out the addition of one or more be-
ing added to the roster, and as each
25th member receives the honorary
degree, which is, indeed, something
to be proud of, every good, eligible
man should join.

and gave Mr.. Walker a hard run
for first choice in the efficiency con
test .,As
while" we have to admire big,
spectacular work, it is the quiet,
consistent, persistent plugging which
most often wins success.
ut is evident that Mr.. Boswell
started in the Capacity Club Contest
determined to win. His interest and
his hard work never tagged. He had
no better chance for good work than
hundreds of other retail statesmen;
yet month after month he rolled up
nice percentages against the final
day of reckoning. There was moth
ing astonishing about his work-just
simple, steady, continuous digging.
And after all is said and done, MIR.
Boswell's way is the surest way to
success. 1t is stability and persist
ence which count most. So many

MR.. GEORGE HAMM PASSED
} TO HIS FINAL REWARD

Mr.. George Hamm died at his res
idence in Dixieland this morning.
Mr.. Hamm had suffered from a
stroke of paralysis about a year ago
and has been perfectly helpless since
then, though his mental faculties
were not impaired, and he seemed
in his usual good health until this
morning. Feeling suddenly weak,
he called to his wife to assist him to
recline from a sitting position in
the bed and as she complied with his
request, she perceived that he was
in a dying condition, and within a
few minutes he expired. The re-
mains were placed in charge of the
Gentry Undertaking Company. and
were moved to the residence of Mrs
w. G., Lasher who is his daughter
The funeral will be conducted at her
residence tomorrow at one o'clock,
Rev. w. H. Steinmeyer officiating.
The Masonic Order will then have
charge of the funeral, escorting the
body to Socrum where it will be laid
to rest.
The friends of the family extend
their sympathy to the bereaved ones
during this sad hour.

Triton, Ca, EDITOR
DECLARES REV. WRAY
BEING CRUC|F|ED

The editor of the Triton (Ga.) Ga
zette has the following to say regard
ing the case of Rev. ]. E. Wray:
I'm the public prints, because they
do not understand, they are cruelty
ing James Edward Wray.
With the soul of poet, mind il
lumined by the divine fire of genius;
a life consecrated to the cause of the
Master, a heart filled with love for
his fellow-man, the Wray we knew
and loved can do no willful wrong.
How ais sensitive nature must be
scared, his frail body wrung with the
reading of the press reports sent from
Jacksonville Saturday.
1.-The story is that Mr.. Wray, min
lister belonging to the Florida Metho-
dist conference and this year in
charge of the church at Live Oak,
was indicted by the federal grand
jury at Jacksonville, charged with
sending obscene matter through the
mails. 1t is said that Mr. Wray was
recently adjudged a fit subject for
the Florida sanitarium for the insane
at Chattahoochee, and that he is
there now for treatment. One &C
count says he was sent there on com
plant of his family; another that he
went voluntarily, following a nervous
breakdown. He has resigned the pas.
torate of the Live Oak church.
REV. ]. f. Wray began his work
in the South Georgia conference in
early manhood, his first service being
on the Albany Mission, under Bias
com Anthony, about 30 years ago
He rose rapidly, bid fair to attain the
the highest positions in the confer
ence, and had already had the pastor

result will be more satisfactory.
