FACTORIES TO BOOST
FOR BICYCLE DAY IN
PHOENIX THIS YEAR

Charles Fuller Gates, bicycle mis-
sionary of the United Cycle Trade d.
rectorate, is in this city to consult with
bicycle dealers and enthusiasts in ref
erence to an annual Arizona Bicycle
( Day, similar to the bicycle day celeora-
tons in California, Florida and other
states where the bicycle is an all the
year vehicle.
! All the makers of bicycles and bicycle
parts and supplies have been banded
together for three years in a national
propaganda to bring the bicycle back
/ to general use, the same as it was be-
/ fore the coming of the motor car, fol-
lowing the same lines of the Liberty
/ loan drives and war work publicity MI q.
/ Gates is one of five men who carry the
message into every cycling center WORK
to raise the efficiency of the retailer
/ Phoenix has always been a good BIZ
cycle town, but on account of it's iso-
| lated situation, so far from other large
! cycling centers, it has been neglected
| by the manufacturers for the Southern
California and Florida big towns,
where for several years annual bicycle
| day celebrations, street parades and
road racing has been carried out Here
after Phoenix will loom up large on the
/ bicycle map, for Mr.. Gates has been
! Instructed TO BOOST lnlS CITY IN all the
cycle trade journals, and the factories
he represents will supply a big prize
| list for parade and road race prizes for
an annual field and for road racing
several times a year
Using bicycles in the world war by
every nation among the belligerents,
and each army using thousands has
given cycling a great boom and it is
expected that most of the soldiers of
America, when they return will be
strong for the bicycle if they were not
before they left our shores.
After visiting Tucson and Douglas,
Bicycle Missionary Gates will introduce
bicycle activity at Albuquerque, and
possibly other New Mexico cities and
then spend the winter in Eastern Texas
cycle centers, promoting celebrations
similar to those he conducted in Flor
ida last winter, returning to the coast
to take up the California, Oregon and
Washington work again in spring.

NEW YORK. Dec 3.-Striking evil

the direction of Colonel +. NJ. House,

withheld from publication until its re-
suits We're safe on shipboard. Except
for occasional publication of the fact
hat peace data was being assembled

The inquiry. the Geographical soci-
ety's statement said. grew out of d
conference between President Wilson
and Colonel House in September. 1917
1t was soon evident that the scope
OF the investigation would demand, not
only a personnel of size and quality
hitherto unknown in any such work,
! but headquarters where safety from

RICH STRIKE IS MADE
IN ABE LINCOLN MINE

Charles +. Ntthorst superintendent
and manager on the ground of the
Abe Lincoln mining property in the
Castle Creek district, is in the city. MI
Nathorst. who is an old mining man
in this state and Nevada, a practical
miner as we'll as a consulting engineer
believes that the Abe Lincoln will de-
velop into a property of great value.
In fact, he says that its value has been
proved by more than thousand feet
of development work.
The property lies fourteen miles east
of Wickenburg in "a district which has
long been recognized as a rich one, bu,
in which there has been no deep min
ing. One of the well known proper
ties is adjacent to the Empress. upon
which, however. little work had been
done But there is one property there,
the Keystone, a proved mine.
A shaft of 700 feet has been SUNK
on the Abe Lincoln. An abandoned
tunnel was opened leading to the shaft,
and just beyond the point where il
was abandoned many years ago a riot
strike was made. The tunnel gradu-
ally descends, SO that when it Strikes
the shaft it will have reached a depth
of nearly 800 feet.
The ore is copper ranging in value
from to 40 per cent, and great masses
of it have been discovered. The COM
pany is financed by Omaha capitalists.

TRAIN FOR HARD WORK

Is there physical training
class In your town.
If not. this Is a good time to
start one--a physical training
class to harden the soft muscles
OF town and city men. so they
can go to farms and do effective
work during emergency needs
for farm labor in their counties
and communities.
Kansas City started a '1oyal
physical fitness class" some
weeks before the time for the
wheat harvest. The idea spread
all over the state. In many
towns and cities similar classes
were organized. and men made
themselves fit for the hard work
they were to undertake in the
fields MS volunteer harvest work
ers. The Kansas wheat crop
couldn't have been harvested II
thousands Of patriotic men from
the towns and cities had not
volunteered to save this crop
that will help feed the fighters
at the front. And a great many
of these men couldn't have work
ed as effectively. and some of
them would have been forced to
drop out altogether, II they had
not been prepared for the physi-
cal strain by preliminary train
ing.
Uncle Sam needs the help Of
every loyal American citizen.
Either work or fighti You can't
do your best work, either at
your present Job or Mt any other
job, or In the fields temporarily
as farm volunteer. unless you
are physically fit
A few weeks work in a physi-
cal training class will harden"
you surprisingly. Start q class
in your town. Be ready to- go to
work effectively. be able really
to accomplish something in the
fields when the call comes for
patriotic town men to do emer-
gency farm work in your section.
An open space--the courthouse
square or a vacant lot or a big
back yard-a leader who knows
the army "setting up" or other
movements and exercIses-and
determination on the part of the
men Of your town-these are all
the things you need.
