SOrely Disappointed

Some very harsh complaint
has been heard about the way a
number of young people were
disappointed last Sunday night
when they went to HOlbrOok to
see the Snowflake soldier boys as
they passed thru from Camp
Funston to California. On ac-
count of being misinformed as to
when the soldier train would
pass thru Holbrook the Snow
flake people missed the train to
their great disappointment. Or
dinarilly, missing a train is not
so serious as to make a complaint,
but under the circumstances, go
ing to see the home boys pass
thru was matter Of interest and
Importance and to misinform
them was certainly a mean trick,
to say the least of it.

Going After Speeders

Deputy Sheriff Tom Tan
ner has been active against
auto speeders of late, taking
them before Justice Freeman
who has enriched the county
several dollars by the fines
imposed. The Herald is in
line with our local authorities
in their efforts to put a stop
to speeding. 1t is getting to
the point where, when eros
sing a street, we must take
our hat under our arms and
run for our lives, but little
children can't do this, and
there is where the danger
comes in. 1t is usually
youngsters who get pinched.
They seem to think that to
throw the throttle wide open
and hit the breeze is the cor
rect way to travel. A few
stiff fines will bring them to
their senses and incidentally
acquaint them with the state
law against speeding.

Declaring that $50, 900, 600
was taken out of the pockets
of the Kansas farmers in
twenty-four hours when the
government fixed the price
of the 1918 wheat crop, Gov
ernor Capper in a letter to
Food Administrator Hoover,
made public today, asserts
"the sacrifice apparently has
been in vain," because 1.-THE
millers, bakers and retailers
have not reduced their prices
accordingly, and show no
disposition to reduce them.

Halloween Party by Society
Younger Set

An interesting Halloween par
ty was given Tuesday night at
the h0fae or Mrs. Eliza T. Smith
by the Misses Clara Dell Smith,
Celia Hunt, Verlie Willis, Maggie
Dewitt, and the following guests
were present: Misses Myrtle
Gibson, Uldene Ramsay. Rika
Roelink, Leona Frost, Bernice
Frost, Ina Campbell, Cliffe Ellis
worth, Anna Kemp, and Messrs.
Albert Lionbarger, Frank Willis,
Homer Willis, Reg Flake, Kim
ball Rogers, Nell Willis, Karl
Brewer, Charley Willis, Thurl
Keith, and Ruel Pomeroy.
The elegant style in which the
supper table was dressed deser-
yes special attention. With fruits,
special prepared pickles, fortune
nuts, and something to drink a
la grape juice, and other dainties,
Just such as All Saints would be
pleased to meet on the eve Of
Halloween. In due time this
table was badly treated by the
gay and hungry 'eens, much to
the enjoyment of the hostesses.
The parlor was especially
dressed for the spookey occasion,
there being plenty black cats to
throw at the rest of the kittens,
autumn leaves, magic lanters,
yellow punkins, and plenty room
for the youngsters to engage In
games, fortunes, merrymaking
in general. Halloween is the
time for young people to select
their future wives or husbands,
but the list of such selections
was refused for publication.
However, we have just ordered
a nice assortment of wedding
stationery and will take great
pleasure in waiting on the pros
pective couples as they come in,
provided they don't all come al
once.

Lectures and Logic

Prof. H. R. Atkin deserves
special complimentary mention
for the manner and interest he
takes in delivering lectures to
the Academy students. His aim
is to teach the young people the
proper way to live and act, that
they may become useful citizens.
The other afternoon he attended
a game of basket ball. The air
was sharp and clear. The next
day he delivered an interesting
lecture to the students. In the
course of his remarks we caught
this: Il attended the basket ball
game yesterday afternoon and
noticed a young lady with hardly
sufficient clothing to make pair
of leggings for a humming bird"
Appropriate comment on the mat
ter would have been by the sug-
gestion ''that some one should
pass the apples. " meaning that
it was Eve who handed Adam an
apple and then they discovered
that they were in a nude condi-
ton.
The Herald has been wanting
to remark that it is something
remarkable how little clothing
some can get along with in a
high altitude in the winter sea-
son, and some how we notice
such every time we see the like:

.W.P. Ceary LOoses His
Head in the Mountains
Huntsman Has Peculiar Ex-
perienCe

w. Paul Geary, Sam Proctor,
Vic Hanny and one or two other
Phoenix notables are in the
mountains above Eagar hunting
deer. Tuesday morning Mr..
Geary shouldered his gun and
left camp alone and did not re-
turn till Friday morning. His
absence caused great alarm, it
being supposed that he was either
lost or seriously injured, and
telephone messages were sent
out for help to find him. F. w.
Nelson, brother-in-law Of Mr..
Geary, was notified by telephone
and he had men go from Eagar
and Springerville to aid in the
search. Friday morning Mr..
Nelson was called up by phone
and informed that Mr.. Geary had
returned and was all right, but
no particulars were offered in
explanation of his absence from
camp alone for TWO days and two
nights. 1t is probable that Mr..
Geary will have a hair-raising
story to tell when he returns.

Iowa Remains DRY
and Yet it is "Wet''
A Peculiar State Of Affairs
with ]. BarIeycOrn

Des Moines, Iowa, Oct. %
Although Iowa ''wets"
have just won an election,
the state has not gone "wet"
It is dry by an act of the
legislature. The people vot-
ed on a prohibition amend
ment to the state constitu-
tion. They turned it down.
But the saloons can't come
back until the state legisla-
ture repeals the present
"dry' law.
While the "wets" had a
majority at the election, the
counties which they carried
have eight less votes in the
state legislature than the
counties which voted dry;
and only two votes more in
the state senate than the dry
counties.
Therefore the effect of the
recent election is to throw
the liquor question back into
the state legislature, instead
of taking it out of the legis-
lature's hands forever.

ahe Good Name Of Navajo County to the

The Yavapai Club for Yava-
pal county has never made
it's membership fee less than
$40 per year. 1t is thought
by some that the fee for
membership in the Navajo
Club is too small. But, the
Club is in it's infancy. Its
objects are big and broad
and it solicits the support Of
every good man, thus its
membership fee was placed
in reach of every good man.
This Club will initiate at
the proper time the Navajo
county fair-not control nor
conduct the fair, but initiate
it. Then it can organize it's
own association for annual
exhibitions.
This Club will keep it's pro-
gressive ears to the ground
and be alert at all times for
the sound of any move or
proposition that will merit
investigation or projection.
It's pass word will be "Na-
avajo County, Arizona" It's
sign Of membership will be
an official receipt for the
current year dues
It's motto will be Boost. !"
It's life should be as long
as it can serve our citizen

CONSUMPTION Is VITAL TO
VICTORY IN WAR
BY George Martin,
United Press Staff Correspondent.
Washington, April 25.-Conscrip-
ton is vital to America before the ma
ton can have any success in the war.
Lieut.. Gen. B. T. NJ Bridges
stepped out of the great inteTnation-
al war council Of the allies here to
deliver this message to the AmeTi-
can people.
While congress wrangled over the
seIective CONSUMPTION bill this fighter
in khaki, fresh from the front, count
ed the cost of the volunteer system
to England.
I'VE were saddled with the volun-
teer system at the beginning of the
war, said Bridges. eve would have
given anything to get rid of it. 1t
hampered and retarded us in every
phase Of our war development.
"The volunteer system threw the
best industrial forces Of the country
into the trenches when they were
badly needed at home; and it left at
home those whose places we're at the
front.
If we had had CONSUMPTION at the
beginning it would have Obviated our
later difficulties as to munitions, CO.
ordination Of our national forces and
many other vital things"
Then Lieut.. Gen. Bridges sounded
the keynote of the British commits
sion's message to the American peo-
pie. Said he;
IF you're going to war you must
go the whole hog.
You must go to it inteIligently,
Systematically.
Men, women and children must
