ELDER SCARBOROUGH HERE

Presiding Elder Scarborough of the Methodist church South, was in Tempe for a while last week, greeting mem bers of that denomination and on other business. MT. Scarborough was eX- ceptionally liberal in his praise of the evangelistic team-Price and Guice- who are to be here next week. MT. Scarborough went through meeting with them in Santa Anna, Cal, and says that it was the best union revival that he ever witnessed and that Price is one of the dearest, sanest speakers, while Guice is a song leader and so- loist who has no superior. He says Tempe is to be congratulated on se- curing these mtn for two weeks meeting.

BUILDING IN MESA
 STOPPED BY RAIN

December showed a fair demand for lumber for local construction work. Four modern residences are under course of erection. One for MT. Cum mard of the Arizona Land Co, an other for L. B. Johnson, which iis nearing completion, the Albert North home on Second avenue and the ele- gant residence being built for Dr. E. C. Openshaw. Naturally the rains Of the last two weeks and the present storm have delayed work on these as on other buildings now being erected. The Baptist people are anXiously awaiting the time when they may be- gin using their building. The addi- tions to the old church are such as to make it a modern plant suitable to the needs of the congregation.
 In connection with the lumber ques- ton here comes the fact that retail lumber will have to advance. It seems from the market reports as furnished to the various retail lumber companies that this time at least, the wholesale advance has justification in the re- markable demand for wholesale lum- ber The allied government have re- gently contracted for 200,000,00O feet, and the French government is flgur- ing with the mills for a like amount, though the purchase has not as yet been actually made. The lumber pur- chased and that desired by the French consists largely of materials to be used in road building, ties, bridge tim bers, etc The interesting part of the report, however, consists in the state ment that the increase in the price of clear lumber comes from the recent very heavy purchases and the con tinued demand by railroads in this country for lumber for car buildins Railroads do not build cars to lie idle and it may be safely presumed that the railroad interests of the united States are preparing for the prosper ity which is being so freely prophesled.

 TEMPE SCHOOLS
Half of School Year Over This Week. New Sched- ule Grade Schools. Rain Clipples Heating System But School Goes On

So disagreeable has been the weather so far this week that various changes in the schedules at the grade schools have been made. At the normal and high school. where students and fac ulty members are busy winding up the first semester's work and preparing for the opening of the new semester next Monday, the schedule remains much the same and classes are being held regularly, despite the rain and mud.
 For the remainder of the week, or at least until the weather takes on a more agreeable tone, the Eighth and Tenth street grammar schools will only hold sessions during the fore noons according to an arrangement by Superintendent J. O. Mullen last even ing. Assemblies will occur at o'clock as usual and regular recitations will be held until 12:30, when school will be dismissed for the day.
 Because of the rain and a crippled heating system, the training school was dismissed yesterday, but it is expected that the school will be in shape for regular sessions again today.
 For the students of the two advanced schools this is the one busiest week of the semester. Examinations predom- inate The Normal has already com menced it's preparations for the new half-ycar with the classification yes terday of the seniors for their last course of study in the Normal.
