Red Cross Benefit.

One of the pleasant affairs of
the social season was given last
Thursday evening at the home
of Mrs. O. w. Schleuter, when
Mesdames Schleuter, McKellips,
Claffey and Wilson gave a bridge
party for the benefit of the Red
Cross Christmas box fund. DIR.
Pritchard was present and made
some pertinent remarks on the
origin and work of the Red
Cross, the keynote of which was
to work for the good of the SOL
dier, and to assist the govern
ment at all times, rather than
any personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT or
special recognition. After a
pleasant evening at cards deli
cious refreshments were served,
the affair netting the ladies
about SIS which will be turned
over to the Red Cross Chapter to
help bring cheer to the soldiers
hearts at Christmas.

Accidents at State Fair.

During the fair at Phoenix last
week two men were killed and
several were injured during the
races. The first day a rider in
one of the races was almost in
stantly killed when his horse
stumbled and fell on him; the
next day another rider broke a
stirrup in race, was thrown
from his horse and broke a leg.
Saturday during the auto races,
one machine got beyond control,
plunging through a fence, and
killed the mechanician and in
jured three other people. This
fast life is killing a lot of our
people.

Second Liberty Bond Sale.

According to the latest reports
on the second Liberty loan drive
IN Arizona, given out by the
campaign manager, Harry R.
Trltle, the oversubscription per-
centage of the baby state was
larger than any other state in
the union.
In Arizona there was a sub
scription by one Individual out
of IA, this counting men, women
and children, aliens and Indians.
Altogether in the northern coun-
ties of Arizona were 1861 SUBJ
scriptions divided as follows:
Maricopa, $500; Gila, 1924; Pinal,
2648; Yavapai, 957; Mojave, TIA;
Yuma, $50; Navajo, 478; Coco
nino, 284; Apache, 139.
The total subscription from
Navajo county was $75, 800,
which is a remarkable showing
when it is considered there are
no big mining corporations here
to take big blocks of bonds. The
Navajo county purchases repre-
sent the small savings of her
people, who are patriotic enough
to come forward with their mite
to aid in the war.

Basket Ball To-day.

the first basket ball game of
the year is scheduled to-day be-
tween Winslow and Gallup high
schools. The Winslow HI G h
school this year has been making
the effort to give every girl some
physical training, and the girls
who elected to play basket ball
have been training since Oct. 1st,
and are now to meet their first
opponents on the high school
court grounds at 3 p. m.
The team expects this to be a
strong and snappy game, and
they are working hard, with the
whole student body enthusiastic-
ally supporting them in thei
maiden effort to win laurels on
the athletic field. 1t is hoped
every patron and friend of the
school will make the effort to be
at the game. There has not been
a girls basket ball game in Win
slow for some time, and the sup
port given the game Friday will
determine to some extent the
further schedule of home games.
The lineup for the Gallup
Winslow game will probably be
as follows: Vida Norman, first
center; Elsie Cassin, second GEN.
ter; Bernice Cunningham, left
forward; Olivia Cunningham,
right forward; Louise Chase,
right guard; Pearl Harper, left
guard.
The game is called for O clock
on the court north of the high
school building.

years, has traded runs with r. E.

boy at Fort Riley, will be sur
prised to learn that on Nov. 4th
he was married to a Kansas young
lady. He has also received a
promotion in the service to be a
sergeant-major of his regiment,
probably for bravery in daring to
get married while he was a
soldier.
A Mexican employed at the
shops was placed under arrest
last Monday charged with steal
ing wearing apparel and tools
belonging to engineers that had
been left on the engines. This
work has been going on for some

most popular star in motion
pictures. Having reached the
very top rung of his theatrical
ladder of success not only as an
actor, but; as an author and pro-
ducer, George M. Cohan has fin
ally turned to the silent drama
as a new field of conquest, so to
speak. In ord er to display
his very best efforts before the
motion-picture camera, the fa-
nous Yankee Doodle Boy" Sc
lected his latest stage hit,
Broadway JONES'" as his initial
vehicle in the motion picture

War Work at Navy Yards.

Nearly $4,000 appointments
were made to the forces of me-
chanics, helpers, and laborers at
navy yards and other naval es-
tablishments during the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1917, and
since that d a tie appointments
have been made in increased pro-
portion.
An appropriation of ST, 500, 900
is now being expended in the en-
largement of the great naval gun
factory at Washington, which,
when completed, will furnish en-
ployment for 1000 or more skilled
mechanics, in addition to the
5000 already at work in the plant.
In this mammoth factory, one of
the best equipped and most in
teresting in the world, are built
the great guns for our war
vessels, which carry to every
country the message of Americas
ability to protect herself and to
safeguard the rights of her citi-
zens wherever they may be.
The new naval aircraft factory
at Philadelphia, which will be
completed this month, will also
employ about 5000 men.
The workers who man such
plants are of a superior class,
and they feel a personal pride in
turning out products that will
stand the test of conflict with the
arms of other nations. A con-
siderable part of the building of
war vessels is also done in Gov
ernment yards.
The United States Civil Service
Commission, which is charged
with the task of recruiting the
ranks of this great civilian army,
through it's widespread organi-
zation is furnishing the men as
they are needed. In certain
trades, particularly those con-
nected with shipbuilding, there
is usually a shortage. Sailmak-
ers, coppersmiths, shipftters,
anglesmiths, blacksmiths, and
machinists are especially needed.
Women to operate power sewing
machines are also in great de-
mand. The representatives of
the Civil Service Commission at
the postofices in all cities are
the official recruiting agents for
this as we'll as other branches Of
the Civil Service. The commits
sion urges competent mechanics
to offer their services to the Gov
ernment at this time of great
need.

A Lay Sermon.

A Lay Sermon.
Prof. Luther B. Moore oc-
cupied the pulpit of the Episco-
pal church last Sunday evening,
delivering an address on the
duty and responsibilities of the
laity in church work. 1t would
have been a good thing if men,
bers of all the churches had heard
the address, and perhaps it would
have aroused them to the fact
that simply putting their names
on the church rolls was not
the end of their responsibilities.
The trouble with all the churches
to-day is that they are gradually
dying from dry rot. The mem
bers are not interested in the SER
vices enough to attend only oc-
casionally as it suits their pleas
ure, and they contribute as little
as possible to it's financial sup
port, having an abiding faith in
the scriptural injunction that
"the Lord will provide. " When
the members of the churches
awake to a greater interest in
the work of Christianity, and
give not only their personal SER
vice, but financial support that
will keep it off the rocks of con-
tinuous threatened bankruptcy,
that day will the church takes its
proper place in the world as a
great institution and accomplish
in time the evangelism of the
people.
A government food surveyor
was IN Winslow last week look
ing over the stocks of our mer-
chants to see if they had any
food supplies stored away on
which they intended to specu-
late. After looking them over
he decided that either the citi-
zens would have to Hooverize
mighty hard, or the merchants
would have to make more pur-
chases of food supplies, to keep
the inhabitants supplied with the
common necessities of life. To
the ordinary citizen the stocks
in the stores look abundant to
supply tn e people for many
months, but they little realize
the daily consumption because
the shelves are kept full from a
reserve stock. If the reserve
stock was to be suddenly de-
pleted not store in town would
be able to continue in business
over thirty days.

matters that the grand jury were

Visitors returning from the
state fair are enthusiastic over
the big show, saying it was by
far the best meeting and drew
the largest crowds ever known in
the history of the state. Every
department of the fair was filled
with fine exhibits, and the speed
program was a Whirlwind of fast
records.
Cattlemen in the vicinity of
Globe have appealed to Washing
ton for the immediate release of
sufficient cars to move 1000 head
of cattle, claiming the range is
barren due to the long drouth. If
the cars are not furnished it is
said the cattle will have to be
turned loose on the range to die,
as the ranchers cannot afford to
buy the feed necessary to run
them through the winter.
