AN AGED WOMAN
Tells How Vinol Made Her Strong

In her eighty-second year Mrs John
Wickersham, of Russellville, Pa, says:
81 was in rundown, feeble condition
and had lost flesh. A neighbor asked
me to try Vinol, and after taking two
bottles my strength returned; l am
gaining in flesh, it has built up my
health and l am feeling fine for a
woman of my age, SO 1 get around and
do my housework."
The reason Vinol was so successful
in Mrs. Understands case was be-
cause it contains the very elements
needed to build her up.

ACADEMY NOTES---BASKET
BALL GAME, MAYBE,
WITH WINSLOW

The school is not dead although
it may seem we have quit making
much noise.
Since our last basketball-tennis
contest with st. Johns our eyes
have been kept almost contin-
ually on the Sophomores who
have been showing the rest of
the school how things are done.
They boast of having two of the
winners of the cross country
run which took place on Thanks
giving Day; they boast of enter
tanning the Student Body the
best; they boast of giving the
best dance of the season. All
this is true to be sure, and the
rest of the classes can only hope
to awake from their dream.
1t is rumored that the Student
Body will start activities along
the basketball line again as a
letter has been received from
the Winslow B. B. team asking
what terms we will accept. If
we go into it, it will be for
victory.
A good Christmas program has
been arranged to take place Fri
day morning, Dec. 22, at 10:45.
This program has for it's pur-
pose not only to leave a good
taste in the mouth of the stu
dents when they go home for
Christmas but is also prepared
f)r the purpose of entertaining
our fathers, mothers, brothers,
sisters, and friends. We say
to you all, whether you live in
town or not that you miss some
thing valuable if you do not
come.
The Faculty will present a
play entitled, Christopher Jun
ior." on the evening of the 21st.
We suggest to our out-of-toWn
friends, that they come j n
Thursday and take in both the
play and the program.

JOE F. WOODS AND GOVERNOR
G. p. HUNT CONTEST ELECTION

The threatened election con-
test materialized last Friday
with the filing of a complaint in
the Superior court by J.F. Woods,
defeated candidate for sheriff
on the democratic ticket, against
the reelection of r. L. Newman.
Mr.. Woods alleges in his COM
plant that there were votes cast
for him at Winslow and Linden
that were not counted and that
the election at Snowflake was
fraudulent, corrupt, illegal and
void. He also pays his respects
to the election board and claims
that the judges were parties to
the corruption and fraud and re-
fused at all times to listen

listen to the the worthy counsel
of the simon pure inspector who
made an honest endeavor to up
hold the law.
Governor George Washington
Peter Hunts contest was filed
the next day and alleges sub
stantially the same fraud and
corruption as the one of Mr..
Woods which lost him his re-
election.
Frank Curley, a Tucson law
yer, appears as counsel in each
case but no doubt will be assisted
by other attorneys at the trial
which will probably be hard
fought.
