NEW PAVING PLAN
 AT MESA OFFERED
TEMPE OFFICE Mrs. Chas. Prsthsr Brown Mercantile Company
 Phone 71

MESA, Jan. 31.-The paving of the principal business streets of Mesa is being freely discussed these days. One of the difficulties connected with the financial end of the question is that Mesas streets measure 100 feet in width from curb to curb. and this ex- treme width makes the paving expense much heavier than is ordinarily the case. A man who owns considerable business property on Main street in discussing this matter yesterday pre- Scnted the following plan both for re- ducing the expense and beautifying the city. Pave thirty feet from the sidewalk on each side of the street and leave a forty foot space in the center. Curb this space leaving a wide passage way at center of block for vehicles to cross the street. Grow low topped shade trees in this curb. and when trees are high enough for shade, seats can be placed under them making a sort of resting place for the public during the warmer days of sum- mer. This said he, would be an inn mense saving of money and make Mesa a town of novel beauty
 When the plan was outlined another man standing near told of asking a man of national experience in city paving how to handle the wide street paving proposition and the expert S suggestion was exactly in line with that presented by the property owner yesterday.

Efficient Service

Some time ago the Mesa rural free delivery routes numbers one and two were consolidated, making the present route B miles with nearly 800 patrons to serve. Since this change was made several carriers have had the route, each one giving up his job when he found the auto expense eating up the profit and leaving him with a salary of less amount than could be obtained in other lines of work. L. l.. Gardner the present carrier, is not unlike his predecessors in that he has found the route money loser, and his resigna tion has been before the department for some time. This fact however has not prevented his careful and prompt delivery of mail each day dur ing the past rainy spell when the ma jority of the roads were almost impass- ihle. Some few places there were where the trusty Ford could not pull through, but fully 9S per cent of the patrons were served each day.
 This is a very satisfactory record tc patrons along the route, especially when 1t is considered that the standard route is 24 miles. Postmaster Babbitt the Commercial club and the news. papers are petitioning the department 10 put two carriers on, in order thai lanchers may get their mail earlier each day.

 CLIMBING HIGH

Claiming the distinction of being the first Arizona boy to become a first lieutenant in the aviation section, Ed ward w. Raley has written to his father, E. D. Raley of this city, telling of his promotion. Besides the rank given him, Raley has also been made an instructor, so he writes, and is in charge of 10 other aeroplanes at Kelley field, No. ?, San Antonio.
 One interesting section of Raley' s letter to his father tells of the turn on wing" an aerial stunt which can be accomplished only by the most pro- ficient of aviators. Young Raley de- clares it to be more unusual than the steep bank" which consists of drlv- ing the machine straight up, while passing over san imaginery bank, or obstruction, such as a mountain might be, in actual maneuvering.

 Judge Stanford replied that perhaps it was a detective in the employ of the county who made the sale to which she referred. The court took occasion to remind Mrs. Evans that Tillman refused to reveal the name of the man from whom he made the purchase. and as long as violators of the law kept their secrets it would be a difficult matter to break up bootlegging in this county.
 Tillman. who was implicated in the recent jail delivery, stated that he had sold two pints of whiskey to the Greek at the Phoenix Candy Kitchen because of past favors from the Greek, from whom he had secured "coca cola with a flavor"

For the young knowledge seekers attending P. H. S, only 16 weeks of school remain. Taking away one week for University week. there remains only 15 weeks, total of 75 school days Considering there are 15 Saturdays and 15 Sundays in 15 weeks. there remains cnly 45 school days. As the pupils only go to school hours, or less than a third of a day each school day, there remains but 15 days of school. With 30 minutes for lunch each day, one whole day may be deducted from the total, only 14 days remaining from the school year. Rejoicings!
 For slight mistakes in calculating the above the pupils of the P. H. $. mathematics department may be held entirely responsible.
