THE BAPTIST CHURCH

r The opening, Sunday of the new year brought many new faces into the church services. The start on the New Year is good and encouraging {. Every other interest is booming in our community, why not boom the church and the moral interests of our community life? You may think the church unnecessary to the well being of the community and still you may soon need her comforting and con soling ministry. Every individual is more or less indebted to the church for her ministry in goneby days, the influences of which have silently grown into your life and mine. Why not pay up and give honor where honor is due? Staying away from church relieves no man of his re ligious responsibilities is a debt that is never out-lawed. God knows every moral coward who seeks to evade the issue. You may murder conscience and still have to face the issue, for you can not murder God.
 The services Sunday will be spiced with good music led by Prof. Um fleet The subject of the morning sermon will be "The Salty Christian. 2 At the evening hour the pastor will speak on Looking Upward. Joir the young people in the 6:30 service and remain for preaching. You vii find hearty welcome to all our ser vices.
 John W. Epperly, Pastor.

BALLOT INSPECTION ENDS; TRIAL IF GUBERNATOR|AL
 ISSUE SET FOR JAN. 25

ty clearly the Campbell declination of the Hunt offer to go to bat, was profitable one Advance information from Cochise county, for instance, had led the republicans to be extremely anxious to inspect the ballots from that rock-ribbed Hunt stronghold.
 It is, also notable, that the really big Hunt counties, inspected late, all showed Campbell gains on the undis- puted ballots.
 We are not claiming for Campbell |one ballot. oyer which there is any dispute. '', Maddock said yesterday afternoon, at the conclusion of the in- spection: We are going to go into court with some figures that will as tonish the hgnrers." fa.fs.5s Madock admitted that there would be a probe into the conduct of the poll ing place in the first Douglas precinct | It was here that 53 ballots were found Ito have been changed from Campbell to Hunt, under possibly suspicious cir. lcumstances. There are some who laugh at the figure, and say that if tthe inspectors had been a little more sharp. they might have detected 125 illegally marked ballots.
 A development of interest yester day, that presumes a new alignment of attorneys, was the postponment oi
 the trial from Jan. IS to Jan. 25th
 by Judge. Stanford. It is understood that the decision of. the supreme court Ion the motion to strike, will be de l Ilivered Wednesday,.
 Ives and Sloan, opposing attor lneys, and both residents of Tucson left for that city last night.

PHOENIX, Jan. 10.-Maddock says 157 for Campbell.
 Wood says TIT for Hunt:
 After a day of cleaning up odds and ends, of inspecting 2,100 Greenlee and Cochise ballots, together with those of the missing Gila precinct, the republ- can and democratic ballot dancers hied them to their several offices and pro ceeded to get out tabulatfons. The re- publican committee tabulated and then issued a statement. An offer was made to w. H. Plunkett, accountant for the Hunt inspectors, that The Republican would print any tabulation he wuold give out, but he could not be located after a reasonable time had been given him to complete compilation.
 Chief Inspector Homer Wood, how. ever stated to the Republican that the Hunt majority had been heightened from 135 to 147 by the final days work. This meant total net gain oi Hunt of TIT votes during the inspee' ton. .',-s, -rr,5is fzss, 4 * s-s- 2

Wood merely said that a week ago, when the republicans conceded a gain of fol Hunt in counties Hunts attorneys had gone into court with an offer tt stop the inspection and go to trial, i'm plying that republican bluff hat been called.

An Oversiqht-

An Oversight
 In our write-up of the Elks annual ball last week we unintentionally omitted an item worthy of mention That was the large ice punch bowl which was in service during the even. ing and which brought forth favor able comments from everyone present The bowl was manufactured at the A :. c. ice plant by Manager T. M (. Vaughn and measured 22 inches in diameter. Into the top of the bowl was frozen wreath of strawberries which produced most artistic ef- feet. The bowl was a work of art which deserves special mention and the Elks desire to express their ap- preciation and thanks to MT. Vaughn for the frozen creation evolved from his ingenuity.

Redpath Entertainments

: The recital given by Gay Zenola MacLaren at the Princess Theatre on Saturday evening under the auspices of the Clifton public schols was much enjoyed by large audience. This was conceded to be one of the best entertainments of the course. Her character interpretations were excel lent and among her extensive roper toire it was a hard matter to select one to take precedence over another. So far the course has more than met the expectations of the school board as we'll as the public and there yet remain two more entertainments to complete the course, the Savaranoffs and the Fairchild Sisters which will appear at a later date.

For artists OF every sort splendid
records in war work are foretold.
Actors come under a sway for making
