Holbrook, Arizona, Oct. 16-1917.
Sealed proposals will be receiv-
ed at the office of the Navajo
County Highway Commission at
Holbrook, Arizona, until 1900,
noon, on November 5th, 1917, for
building approaches to the West
LIE Roux Wash Bridge, located
about three miles west from Hol-
brook, Arizona, on the HoIbrook to
st. Joseph road. Work involves
the excavation of about ff-
teen hundred (15O0) cubic yards
of earth and the driving Of ap-
proximately fifty (50) piles, and
the placing of about thirteen
thousand Q3,000) feet, board
measure, of timber.
Plans and specifications will be
furnished to prospective bidders
upon the receipt Of two dollars
(S2.00), which will be returned
upon receipt of bona fide propo-
sal or the return of the plans and
specifications in good condition
on or before November 5th, .1917.

The three-cent letter postage
will take effect Nov. 1st, so it
behooves everybody to get busy
with their delayed correspond
ence if they want to take advan-
tage of the present bargain rates
in postage. The one-cent letter
filled with advertising about pa
tent calf weaners, or special hol-
iday rates on bourbon Whiskey,
will take a two.cent rate, which
we hope will have the effect of
putting it out of business. Then
if they would only cancel the
frank of the senators and con-
gressmen, it would not be neces-
sary to maintain such a large
waste basket.

Keeping Track of Our Soldiers.

Arizona on November /, will
have 5311 men in the national
military service, divided as fol-
lows: First draft call, 1T;
second, 1889; third, 1889; fourth,
not yet sent, SIT; national guard
regiment, 679; navy 164; marine
corps, %; regular army; 968.
The last item includes, quarter
master corps, So; aviation, 81;
medical So; signal, 62; engineers
%.
At the suggestion of Chairman
Heard, the council of defense is
arranging for a card index, to
cover the names of the families
of all men who have gone to the
front from Arizona. The coun-
Gil will act as clearing house
and see that service is actually
rendered in every county in the
state through some local organi-
zation Of the Red Cross, Wher-
ever such organizations exist, in
cooperation with the county
council of defense. The plan be-
ing to see that definite assistance
is rendered whenever needed.
These cards are to be filled out
and maintained with the coopera-
tion of the military authorities
and already have been approved
by General Wood at Camp Funs-
ton and Colonel Cabell at Dou-
glas. Each card will will give
following data: Name; age;
marriage; place and date of en-
rollment; present address, in
Guiding regiment and company;
branch of service; present rank;
compensation from the govern
ment; portion of pay assigned; to
whom; former occupation; former
employer; compensation received
from former employer; allowance
now made by former employer,
if any; former address, names
and addresses dependents.

New Mexico Soldiers.

The 1st Infantry. New Mexico
national guards, together with
the men chosen under the selec-
tive draft for service, passed
through here Wednesday morn
ing for Linda Vista, Calf, where
they will go into camp for the
winter. New Mexico seems to
be able to get about every favor
they want in this war. They
furnished less soldiers according
to population than Arizona, they
secured more men in the officers
training camps than Arizona, and
now they get their soldiers sent
to the balmy cline of southern
California, while our Arizona
boys are put in camp in the bogs
along the KaW river in Kansas.
If the New Mexico quota can be
put in camp in California there
is no just or reasonable excuse
for keeping our boys in Kansas,
and Gov. Campbell should take
the matter up with the war de-
partment to have them transfer
red. Our senators In Washing
ton seem to have about as much
influence with the administration
as the janitors of the building.

black land farm at Gum Springs, to
Sid and Geo. Brewer. The considera-
ton was fifty dollars per acre spot

Joining this farm to the south and will
continue his present residence, anC the
home on the new farm will be occu-
pied by George and his family, who
for the past several years have been
living at SparlSman. This is one of
the finest farms in the county and was
bought by Mr. McCleish six years agu
from Rev. A. w. Forbes for twenty
eight dollars per acre, though to be
sure Mr.. McCleish has made consid-
cradle Improvements on the place.
The Brewer brothers will take pos
session in January l, 1918, and Mr..
McCleish will move his family to a
residence across the railroad where he
has sixty acres and store. He says
he sold simply because he was tired
and wanted a rest. We are glad that
he intends to continue making hil

Co. X. of the First Tennessee Regi-

wood county boys in it, is in Greenville,
South Carolina, on guard duty at the
cahtonment being built there.
Desiring to aid in every possible
manner the work of the Red Cross,
many prominent men of New York
are, volunteering their services to op-
crate the knitting machines used to
make socks for soldiers, on the ninth
floor of the Red Cross offices at 441
Fifth Avenue. The men go to the
rooms with their wives every Friday
night and run the machines while
their wives lay out the yarns. The
women wind the yarn on the reels and
the men operate the machines which
are fastened to tables. The machines
are turned by hand cranks and the
men forget the labor in an effort to
see which can turn out the most socks.
within few weeks it is expected that
dozens of other men will become inter-

for the need Of 100000 sleeveless
sweaters and each chapter is urged
to furnish its quota Of the same.
Just now the fad of knitting ones
sweater has taken possession of the
young girls of the country and it has
become so popular that some of the
girls boast of having made more than
one. Just for style, we say-does the
man on the submarine or battleship,
or in the cold, damp trenches, wear it
for style? No, indeed, it will prove
the geatest comfort to him when the
biting winds of winter and the SHOWS
chill him.
So an appeal is made to all young
women who have become proficient in
the knitting of sweaters to volunteer
to knit at least one for the soldiers
Won't you undertake such a service?
If you will, telephone headquarters
here for further information and in

Brownsville women never do things
by halves. This is clearly Illustrated
in Local Red Cross work. Instead of
undertaking a small amount of work
as an auxiliary of some city chapter,
they have organized a chapter Of their
own and will do the full amount Of
work allotted to such chapter. Here
is an outline of the work being done
by the local chapter.
Surgical Observation-Disclosures, 1850
gauze dressings, 1862.

towels, S64; wash cloths, PIG; woolen
socks, as many as can be knitted.
A great part of this work has al
ready been done and dozen or more
women may be seen daily at Red Cross
headquarters just as busy as bees-do-
ing their part of the greatest work of
humanity that this government has
ever undertaken.
Every woman in Brownsville who
has the inclination can find something
to do at Red Cross headquarters any
day or every day in the week. Some OF
the busiest women in our city may
be found there every day, for their
hearts and souls are committed to
this great patriotic cause. They are
proving by example what can be ac-
complished where ther, is will to do.
Not only are the women urged to
Join IN this work, but cur men are
also asked to do their part. The great
work being done by our women should

only one department Of the work II tht
Red Cross chapter. Thee are many
other departments. The Civilian Re-
lief department should appeal to ev-
cry man. This branch of the work
must be carried on by the men.
The needs of the allies are doubling
so are the prices of material. In
order to carry on the work undertaken
by the women, money will be required.
Our men should see to it that this
money is forth coming.
In short while AuXiliaries will
be organized throughout the county.
Until this organization is effected, the
women here will be glad to have wo-
men throughout the county come and
work with them, for even one after
moons work means a great deal.
