Commencement Week.

The week of closing exercises
of the Winslow public schools
started last evening with the
production of the annual high
school play, ''The End of the
Rainbow" at the Santa Fe ope-
ra house.
This afternoon from l to S p.
m. will be exhibition day both at
the north grammer and the high
schools, where will be displayed
specimen work of the pupils in
art, drawing, painting, music,
manual training, d m e S t C
science and art, and other aca-
demic work. This is an after-
noon intended especially for
the parents that they may see
the work being accomplished by
their children in school.
Tonight at the high school as
sembly room the annual gram
mar school exercises will be held,
beginning at 8 p. m. There are
thirty-three graduates from the
9th grade this year, and the pro-
gram for the evening will be en-
tertaining both from a literary
and musical viewpoint.
Tomorrow Saturday even
ing will be the All Grades canta-
ia entitled, ''The Trip to the
North Pole," which will be pro-
duced at the Santa Fe opera
house. It is given under the di-
rection of Miss Boles, assisted by
the faculty of the grammar
school. Admission free.
The baccalaureate sermon will
be delivered Sunday evening at
8 p. m. in the Santa Fe opera
house, by Rev. Horatio Tragett,
of Flagstaff. 1t will be union
service of all the churches.
Monday evening will be the
final closing event, the fourth
annual graduating exercises of
the Winslow high school. The
salutatory will be delivered by
Miss Marion Nelson, and the
valedictorian will be Mr.. Charles
McCauley. The commencement
address will be delivered by DR.
A. O. Neal, department of edu-
cation, University of Arizona,
and the diplomas will be pre-
sented by Mrs. A. E. Gillard,
president of the board of educa-
ton. These exercises will be
held at the Electric theatre, be-
ginning promptly at 8 p. m.
The following are the names of
the graduates this year, and we
call particular attention to the
fact there are only five girls in
the class out of fourteen men,
bers. The ratio is usually re-
versed. Let US hope the boys
of Winslow will continue to keep
in the majority in the gradua-
tion classes for years to come.

Lynching Near Phoenix.

Larry ldSC Ounudy morning d
mob of infuriated citizens from
Maricopa and Pinal counties met
ed out swift justice to the brute
Starr Daley, who killed James
Gibson last Thursday night at a
lonely spot en- the road where he
was camping for the night, and
then under threats of killing the
wife compelled her to submit to
criminal assaults throughout the
night. Mr.. and Mrs. Gibson
were travelling in a car from
Globe to Tucson, where they
resided.
Daley was arrested early the
next day, and at the coroner's
inquest held Saturday afternoon
he admitted the charges as pre-
ferred against him, and when
Mrs. Gibson recited the details
of the horrible night she had to
spend with the brute on the
desert the wrath of the citizens
broke loose. That evening the
sheriff learned of the threatened
mob forming, and he ATTEMPTED
to spirit the prisoner to the peni-
tertiary at Florence in an auto
mobile, accompanied by two dep
uties. The ruse was soon discov-
cred and several high-powered
machines were brought into use,
loaded with determined men
heavily arm, and the race was
on. They overlook the officers
with the prisoner near the Flor
ence bridge, and seeing further
resistance was useless before
such an armed force the pris-
oner was taken from the
machine, put into an auto with
members of the mob, and was
rapidly Whirled away twenty
miles to the scene of his crime,
where he was strung up to a
telephone pole without much GER
emony. He was cut down the
next morning, and an inquest
held, the jury bringing in ver-
dict of a justifable homicide at
the hands of parties unknown.
The verdict of the jury was
little unusual, but fully justified
from the facts surrounding the
case. There is no doubt but
what the incident is closed, and
no effort will ever be made to
learn the identity of the members
of the mob. 1t is too bad the
public cannot know their names
so they could be extended the
congratulations of the decent
people in the state. They were
fully justified in their .acts, and
they certainly did a good job.
Death of G. 0. Downs.
Word has been received here
that George O. Downs, who has
been an invalid for several years,
died in Los Angeles last Sunday,
where he had gone several
months previous in the hope that
a change of climate would prove
beneficial. Mr.. Downs was the
first white child born in Winslow,
and he has always considered
this city his home, notwithstand-
ing he has been forced to live
elsewhere good share of the
time for the past few years.
Until his health failed, he was a
conductor on the Santa Fe, and
at the time of his death was a
member of the local 0. R. c..
He leaves a wife, mother, sister
and brother to mourn his loss.
The body was brought to Win
slow Wednesday evening, and
the funeral will be held this af-
ternoon from the EIks lodge un-
der the auspices of the order.

FARMERS SHORTEN HOURS
Every Labor and Timc-SnNing Device,
Including Motor Trucks, Now
Iscd on Farms.

The steadily increasing number Of
motor trucks owned and operated in
farming communities Is a fact which
causes not little surprise and COM
ment among city residents who have
observed them while travelling in ru-
raj districts. The reason for the popu-
lari,y Of motor trucks among tho farm
crs. however. is a perfectly obvious one.
a. explained by T.. \. Williams. Jr.
president or the Garford Motor Truck
Company.
Just as the city man is shortening
his hours Of labor and increasing his
profits by the adoption OF tiinc-saving
devices and by the study OF greater
efficiency. 40 the farmer il progressing

TIRE STRENGTH A FACTOR

Wnr service.

Truck tires have played a far more
important role in tho Urea, !ruropcan
conflict than is generally accredited TO
them" says 4. j. WEIGH. manager OF
the truck tire department OF the
United States Tire Company.
The real test of Il truck tire comes
In war" says MIR. Wclch. The success
with which armored motor trucks have
been used in this war is already "a
part of history. Already this success
Is usually attributed to the efficiency
OF the automobile engine. but the
strength of the tire is OF very great
significance. AS long AS "A tire can run
on smooth road, durability is only
question OF time. but when :. tire
must force it's way over bitches and
entertainments. then comes its real test
Not only must tire be subject to
these hazards Of tho road. but it must
continually bear the enormous weight
of the metallic car and it's armamentS
everywhere. NJ the close OF the war
undoubtedly many books will be writ
ten on the armorcd motor car. but /
am sure that its success has been
largely made possible through the un-
usual durability and strength of the
modern tire.
"A large proportion Of the tires now
used in Europe has come from this
country. and the renewal of orders only
illustrates the great faith the warning
nations have placed in their contracts
with the American tire manufacturers"
