SUSPICIOUS OF MEXICO

The statement given out the other
day by the state department relative
10 the negotiations with Mexico clears
up a good deal of the confusion pre-
viously existing as a result of the
publication of many unauthorized re-
ports 1t is made clear for one thing
that General Carranza is not seeking
loan either from the government of
the United States or from bankers in
this country. The negotiations con
Germ the disposition of about 10000
900 which has accumulated to the
credit of Mexico in this country in
various ways, but chiefly from the sale
of commodities. 1t is possession Of
this sum which General Carranza is
seeking, he being deprived of it by
the operation of the embargo, which
applies to the shipment of gold among
other things. But if this statement
shows what the character CT the ne
gotiation is, it affords no information
of the terms which the government
is trying to impose as a condition Of
the export of the funds belonging to
Mexico The fact that me allies have
great need of Mexico's oil suggests a
possible explanation, but that can
hardly be the correct one. since The
territory of the Mexican oil fields is
in military control of an Instruction
airy leader, who seems to be more
favorably disposed toward che United
States and the allies than General
Carranza. Possibly Washington is not
quite content with the brand of ncu-
trality which General CarranGa has
been practicing, and seeks to use his
desire for the gold belonging to Mex
leo as lever with which to force him
into more rectitudinal attitude.

WESTERN MEN ARE BEST

The young men of the West are
physically the best in the nation, as
proved by the draft. The govern.
ment has made known the percentage
Of drafted men who passed the phys

South Dakota has the finest phys
ical specimens in the nation. More
than 80 per cent of those called for ex-
animation passed in that common
wealth.
The only states where rs per cent
of the young men qualified were west
of the Mississippi, and the only states
where 80 per cent and more failed to
pass were east of the Mississippi, with
the exception of Nevada,

INTERE STING EVENTS IN THE LOCAL SOCIAL WORLD
By MRS. FRANK NOBLE
Seniors Now Receiving Honors

Seniors Now Receiving HonOrs
 While there will ever be a note of seriousness during the war, yet many are beginning to realize that amid the stress and strain some respite must be given by social affairs.
 The Lenten ban has been removed and the young people are recovering from it's enforced quietude and in con- sequence the week has held more social functions than we have chron- icled for some time past. Notable this week are the many delightful events planned in honor of the Seniors. The class is an unusually large one, number some fifty or more.
 One affair eagerly looked forward to is an event of Friday night-the Sem for dinner at the Pollock home. For many years this costum has been fol- lowed out with the result that the bond grows stronger between these very good friends of the Normal and the outgoing Seniors. The Pollock home was unusually attractive on this occasion-the lights, the pretty gowns and the fragrance of roses making a happy event indeed. Small tables throughout the rooms held favors and place cards in dainty colors of blue and gold, the class colors, while crys- tai bud vases bore the Marchineal rose the class flower. The dinner was all that could have been desired; it too, showing in it's dainty salads, ices and cakes, the class colors. After the dinner the guests repaired to the Or pheum to enjoy William S. Hart in the Marrow Trail". Besides the Sen iors as guests were Dr. and Mrs. Blome, Mrs. c. O. Robinson, Mrs. Beckwith and Miss Barber.

 Juniors Picnic at
 Lake Mary.
 On Saturday the Juniors delight fully planned picnic for the Seniors at Lake Mary. This, is another "an- annual" immensely enjoyed by both classes.
 Housewives Conservation
 Meetings Interesting.
 The uiStTlCt COnSeTVdtloH meetings on Saturday last proved the interest Flagstaff housewives are taking in the measure. At the hour of three the several hostesses found many eager to begin discussions. The atten- dance varied from a half dozen to twenty and Mrs. Adams feels this is a splendid beginning.
 From time to time we wish to give some of the best recipes offered.
 This week we are going to speak of "potato bread", as the subject for last Saturday was Potatoes.
 Mrs. c. A. Greenlaw not only gave the following recipe at one of the circles, but also brought a loaf that all might sample it's deliciousness.

l.. s. Drum, pioneer rancher of Apache Maid, was in town Saturday after supplies. Mir. Drum and wife spent the winter in the Salt River valley and while there purchased sev- eral fine dairy cows, which he has placed on his ranch.
 The United States department of agriculture is taking an interest in the sheep-killing dog as being a menace to an adequate supply of wool, and ad- vises that "the most effective method of dealing with the sheep-killing dogs is through efficient legislation" The shotgun method would be just as eff fective and besides would be appre- ciated by the undertakers.

Red Cross Attendance Good But Still Room for More

Red Cross Attendance Good
 But Still Room for More
 Aside from busy days in Red Cross circles, the increasing interest taken in the "Womanless Wedding" bids fair to make it highly advertised. So many things we cannot tell, but at the same time we are assured of it's sue cess from those in command. Dainty many features and the bride promises to be all one could hope for in that line. Let us say seriously that the time the men are giving to its in- ception proves how patriotic Flagstaff men area thing perhaps most of us have known, yet too much cannot be said for their generosity in this mat ter.
 But back to the workroom--two big boxes were completed this week, one of pneumonia jackets and one of ab- sorbent pads. The attendance has been good since the removal into new quarters, but thereis still so much room that many more will be gladly welcomed. New tables for the gauge work are being placed so that the many at this work will not be crowd ed. One committee is devoting its entire time to the sending of maga- zines to the soldier boys. All these have to be culled that only the best may be sent, then wrapped and ad- dressed, which means no slight task
 The window display will soon be an attraction too, for those interested in seeing what the local chapter is do- ing.
 Arizona Poets and
 Their Poetry.
 The Shakespeare club met last Mon day night with Mrs. Earl Rosenberry. A marked feature was the splendid attendance, this due doubtless to the fact that real treat was in store. Mrs. c. O. Robinson, one we'll remem- bered by former club members as a most earnest member herself, had con- sented to give an evening on Arizona poets and their poetry.
 A very short business session was soon concluded and Mrs. Robinson took charge of the program, giving short glimpses into the poets life and later some choice creation of his fancy. With infinite charm of voice and manner, Mrs. Robinson held her audience enthralled until 9:30 when by unanimous vote the club rendered their appreciation.
 Perhaps the fact which most in- pressed the club was that Arizona could claim as her own such a galaxy who had added much to her litera- ture and for this reason felt doubly indebted to Mrs. Robinson for the in- troduction which will tend to further the study of these poets.
