Arizona's Diversified Climate

While we have no desire to put one over on the other newspapers of the state with the first snake story of the season, nevertheless this is an actual fact: While the members of the Buck eye ball team (the alleged ball team) were returning from Palo Verde Sun day afternoon they discovered big bull snake crawling along the road. At the same time snow was plainly discernable in the molntains not more than 10 to 15 miles distant. His snakeship had probably been basking in the warm sunshine during the afternoon, and as it was getting late he was hurrying home to his own fire side.-Buckeye News.

INTERESTING EVENTS IN
 THE LOCAL SOCIAL WORLD
 By MRS. FRANK M NOBLE
WOMAN'S CLUB ELECT
 DEPARTMENT CHIEFS

Practically al lsocial events were laid aside this past week in order that the Woman's Club might occupy the centre of the stage.
 Various meetings occupied the members during the week for besides the Big Day"--two other important meetings were scheduled.
 One on Tuesday afternoon was the regular monthly meeting of the Home Economies department.
 This meeting was held at the home of Mrs. w. F. Griffin and enjoyed the distinction of being the best attended meeting of the department for the year as twenty-five ladies were in at tendance.
 Mrs. Adams, chairman, called the meeting to order and after the tran saction of some business matters per taining to future meetings, the cleo tion of chairman for the ensuing club year took place.
 Nominations were not wanting though some seemed loath to accept the honor thrust upon them.
 After balloting, the result showed Mrs. c. c. Harvey duly elected for the new year.
 Mrs. E. F. Honn opened the pro- gram of the afternoon witha we'll pre- pared paper on Minerals and the part played by them as building tis- sues for the body" An instructive chart was of added value in fixing upon the audience the pertinent facts on this most important subject.
 Mir. Stanley Sykes gave the second paper on "The selection and cooking of vegetables" Many facts worth while were brought out in the cook ing of the most frequently used vege- tables. A general discussion fol- lowed the papers and later the hos tess, assisted by Mrs. Sykes and Mrs. Honn, presided over an attractively laden table which proved to the guests that theories can be combined with practical culinary accomplishments for the delectable lunch served, re- ceived many compliments.
 The next meeting will be at Mrs. Pollock's on March the 27th.

THE SHAKESPEARIAN CLUB

The meeting of the Shakespeare Club met on last Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. John Adams.
 The subject for the evening was the concluding act of Macbeth and the meeting was in charge of Mrs. s. s. Acker.
 Several scenes from the act were given in costume and were highly en- tertaining to the other members. Some amatuer acting on the part of some proved themselves to have en- tered completing into their parts.
 Next week the club begins the study of Homer's Illead.

 The Seniors are now seen wearing around their new pins and rings. They are quite proud of them and be- lieve in showing them off. The de- sign consists of the gold figures r with the initials N. A. N. s. written on band extending across the figure.
 Gladys Woods spent the week end with MT. and Mrs. w. s. Borum. On Sunday evening a telephone message was received by her matron, Mrs. Beckwith, of Campbell hall, that she was confined to her bed with a case of the humps. Now what do you know about that?

The Junior Endeavor League proved an organization of some mo- ment last Friday night by entertain ing their elders with quite finished program of song, speeches and drills, At five thirty about fifty young peo- pie were seated for dainty and wholesome supper in the church par lors.
 At seven thirty the program began and for an hour the little folks per formed in a truly patriotic style for the different exercises made quite evident the fact that the affair was in honor of George Washington.

 Dr. Green, who so ably instructed the general populace in the Orpheum theatre on Monday night, visited the general exercises of Normal school on Tuesday morning. His remarks were all very much enjoyed by the students and the few visitors who happened to be present. The usual admonitions to the Young America" and perfect rehearsal of the advantages open to twentieth century American boys was gone through with great improvement on the ordinary delivery.
