THE BEST PROOF
YUMA CITIZENS CANNOT DOUBT

Doan's Kidney Pills were used

 The testimony Is from this locality.
 The proof convincing.
 J. A. Rees, railroad engineer, Pal ace Hotel, Prescott, Ariz., says: T was troubled by pain across my kid neys and sides. I think the complaint was due to cold in my kidneys. If stopped or brought a strain on my back, I suffered worse. Doan's Kid ney Pills brought me relief" (State- ment given February O, 1907)

Since the completion of the War renite good road to Somerton the man. fold blessings of Yuma Valley have been heard from every one who has taken a trip over the good road There is no doubt but that this good road will add to any section through which it traverses. Good roads are here to stay, and the section that does not have them may expect to be re- garded as "out in the country
 The best illustration of this fact that can be found in this section is across tbe river in the "Bard Unit" where there are lands just as fertile as in any section of the United States. There are no better lands anywhere on earth than can be found between the Ocean-to- Ocean bridge and the great Laguna dam. The only draw back is the lack of road such as runs from Yuma to Somerton. The 5000 odd acres set apart for the white settlers" are practically as level as a floor Every acre is susceptible of the highest state of cultivation and will produce, acre for acre, as much as any given acreage on earth. Good roads" is all that is needed to make this one of Yuma's greatest assets. True, at the present time, >the roads are ''passable," but when a rain comes, as it eventually must, the roads will be impossible, so far as hauling a heavy load is concerned. Farmers over there think nothing of raising two or three tons of cafir corn to the acre, and just as much cotton as can be raised anywhere in Yuma Valley. But it takes a whole lot more to get it to market. That's the only differ ence between the lands of the Bard Unit and Yuma Valley. Uncle Sam will not long tolerate this discrimin- ation. The people of Bard are all his children, and when it is definitely shown that good roads" must be had in order for his children to compete say Uncle Sam will at once get busy with the outside world it is safe to and build good roads. When that time comes the Bard section will be yer itable paradise.

for the entire county. It has a mem bership of something over 100 live, hustling business men. But it's mem- bership should be more than doubled during the present year. Every wide awake farmer and stock-raiser in Yu- ma county should join this organiza- tion and thereby help along the good cause. Under the auspices of this or ganization the First Annual Fair of Yuma County" was successfully con- ducted the early part of last Novem- Der. That it was a record-breaker for a first annual county fair" all must admit. Truth is, it was the equal of almost any county fair ever held in the west. It was veritable eye-open- CT to even the oldest inhabitant, for the exhibits were of such high char acter that it seemed as though they had been shipped here from some great international exposition. What was done this last year will be only a drop-in-the-bucket compared to what the Yuma County Commercial Club proposes to do this coming fall.
 In order to accomplish. this the club must have the cooperation of all in- terests, merchants, lawyers, doctors, farmers, stock raisers - everybody should help in this most laudable un- dertaking. The best way and the quickest way to do this is to join the Yuma County Commercial Club. Call and see it's painstaking secretary, L.. w. Alexander, and he can readily con- vince you that if you will but do any thing like your part he will see that Yuma county gets all the advertising it needs.
 Let's all get together and make this years fair the greatest ever seen. It can be easily done, if each citizen will help just little.

CHRISTMAS EVE AT FORT YUMA
 SCHOOL

A development of interest in com munity work through a series of com munity programs is making the Fort Yuma Indian School a center of great value to the Yuma Reclamation prof. ect and especially to the Yuma h. dlans. In the Christmas program on Christmas Eve the progressive spirit of the boarding school and surround ing white schools as well as the day schools in the Yuma Valley and at Somerton, caused many compliment ary remarks. If Herbert Quick could have been present as Santa Claus he would have seen many principles of The Brown Mouse in operation.
 The decoration for the stage for this festive occasion was a work of art Mrs. N. H. Justus, who is an adept at paper cutting and painting, placed upon curtain at the rear of the stage an outline of the little Town of Beth lehem" with the shepherds watching their sheep in silver and the three wise men with their camels in gold follow ing the guiding star which with the electrical effect, produced one of the prettiest pictures imaginable. The current from the city was off several times for a few minutes but the pro- gram continued with flashlights.
 The pupils of the Indian School were up to the usual high standard with their singing and their literary part of the program, while much interest was added by the excellent recitations and plays by the white children from the public schools on the California side of the river. It was not alto gether a children's program as Miss Lewis of Yuma sang a solo which was much appreciated.
 Santa Claus came with many pres ents for the little ones while the par ents of both Indian and white children were interested spectators filling the chapel and standing at the windows where they might hear if not see. This exhibition would have been an inspira- tion to every individual upon the Yu- ma Project.
 The next community program will be held January 12, upon which the adults representing the best talent of the project, both Indian and white, along musical, agricultural, domestic and educational lines will be placed and no doubt great interest will be taken. The public is invited and the program will be made public later.
 February P is the date for the next school community program and pupils to represent schools from Bard, Yu- ma, Somerton and the rural districts of both Southern California and Yuma county, Arizona, are invited to contri- bute.
 The great object of Indian educa- ton is to prepare the Indian for citi zenship and life among his white neighbors, and in order to cause mu tual interest and a better understand ing of each other with the idea of prog ress for the community, these pro grams are encouraged. Without the Indian laborer the project farmer would be at great loss, and without the progressive farmers of the project the Indian would not be far above his standing many years ago. With his present progress the Yuma Indian is making a very creditable showing.

Yuma county citizens are no excep- tion to the general average of citi- zens throughout the entire country. On the whole they think more of their own personal interests than they do of building up the community, each be- ing content to let the other do the active work of boosting.
