 MUCHFORREST

Lodgers at the Monroe house must have their rest. So said the proprietor of that popular rooming establishment when he visited Chief of Police George O. Brisbois a day or two ago and com plained that the Holy Rollers are rais- ing hell in their meeting place next to my hotel"
 According to the man who guides the 1estines of the Monroe house, the re- ligious organization generally known as the Holy Rollers" has been sup- plementing noisy street meetings with still noisier meetings in hall on Mon roe street near the rooming house. Not only have these meetings each night been calculated to disturb the earlier slumbers oA the Monroe house guests, but they have been conducted so late into the night, or rather so far into the early morning that there has been little or no sleep for the patrons of the establishment.
 To Assistant City Attorney James B. Nelson was assigned the task of bring ing order out of chaos and he an nounced yesterday that he had sue ceeded in securing a promise that the meetings would hereafter be concluded not later than II o'clock each night. This will still leave a few hours for Monroe house lodgers to secure enough Sleep to permit them to pursue their | daytime occupations without feeling the time spent in bed has been en- | tirely lost.

 The story was told to the Baptist church congregation on Sunday by Rev. Mir. Rock, the pastor, who said that the family had come in on the train and were unable to find sleeping quarters They were finally directed to pool hall across the street from the city hall, where the proprietor spread blankets on the floor and all lowed the travellers to remain there during the night.
 The same public spirited woman took the trouble to canvass the homes of a number of her friends yesterday, with the result that five homes where travellers could be temporarily accom- modated were listed with Mir. Quin, who is in charge of the bureau.

Not to be outdone by other pro- fcssional folk who have rendered their assistance to the government in car iNing forward the exceedingly com plicated operation of the selective draft laws.

FAMILY AFFAIR
 THIS COMP ANY

B. A Gillespie, a large stockholder in the Harris Consolidated Copper com pany Monday instuted proceedings in the superior court against the con- pany and it's president, Fred F. Harris, asking for an accounting and that a re- ceiver be appointed.
 Alleging that Harris has converted to his own use the sale of stock, the plaintiff contends that the company has served no useful purpose except to furnish the president and the vice president, his wife. Nell Harris, with a means of livelihood.
 Gillespie charges that practically the only assets of the corporation are 40 mining claims and leases in Yavapai county, most of which he claims are worthless while a few have speculative value.
 While Gillespie is the owner of sev- eral thousand shares there are hun dreds of stockholders with a small number of shares from whom Harris procured voting proxies. He claims he called at the office of the company and asked the secretary, if he might inspect the books. He was informed by the secretary, he says, that he was not familiar with the records nor did he know where they were located unless | III lllc pOSSeSSloil Ol lletA 10; AOi NiObi he was acting in the nominal capacity as secretary.
 MT. Gillespie charges that he is un- able to learn when the next meeting will be held. From what he has learned 1 he believes that the company is in solvent and that the indebtedness is in- creasing. Since Harris dominated the board of directors he alleges it would be unavailing and dangerous to make a demand for an accounting and re- turning of funds he claims misappro-
 priated by Harris.

Although the exact date has not as yet been revealed when the boys will leave, it is thought that Friday or Sat urday of this week will be the day selected Mir. Bailey, the instructor in military training, will have charge of the march. He assures mothers and fathers that the boys will be well taken care of, although they will not be provided with any luXuries.
 The service flag that floats above the auditorium has been taken down for the duration of the rain. As the exact length of said rain is not known, no one can say when the flag will float on high again.
 The annual management earnestly requests that all seniors have their photos taken at once, if no previous arrangements have already been made. The prints must be in the hands of the editor soon to assure every senior of having his face enclosed in the 1918 Phoenician.

 DELIGHTFUL COMEDY

 May Richards, characterizing Sarah Jane Lovejoy, was the hit of the per- formance. The clever way she handled her part bespoke talent, and the clear ness of her enunciation showed the re- suit of much study. Betty Barry, talk ing the role of Marian Reynolds, and Meredith Bishop as Miss Fearless, won their audience from the start.
 The remainder of the cast, doing ex- ceptionally fine work, rounded out the play into a very entertaining feature.
 The funds received from yesterdays performance will be used to aid the suffering babies of Belgium. The lily club has put on Miss Fearless and Co.," several times already. using it as a means of gathering funds whep- ever needed for some special cause.

 Junior Class Harry" whose fat figure is known to every member of the student body is causing much amusement lately by his ludicrous actions. He does not wish his name to appear in this article, but the mem- bers of the "Krooled Klique," whom he has wronged, will understand, and rejoice.
 A new bulletin board has been tackled upon the auditorium wall It contains all the latest Red Cross news and news of the activities of the Hi Y girls.
 The fellow who had charge of pull ing up and pulling down the curtain and the fellow who had to do with the turning on and off of the electric lights for the Hi-Y play Monday, cer- tainly deserves a medal. The manner in which the curtain would fail to go down at the right time and the foot lights to come on at the crucible mo- ment, was absolutely bizarre.
 The senior class play has not yet been picked. Herbert Shelley will have to recover from his illness, soon, to kind of see that things get started.
