FLETCHER BLY MARRIES
 MISS GEORGIA ALCORN

Fletcher Bly, the well known sheep man, was married in Flagstaff Tues day to Miss Georgia Alcorn, one of Williams popular school teachers. The ceremony was performed by Dr. o. $. Baum at the Federated parson- age Tuesday afternoon.
 The former mayor of Bellemont came to Flagstaff Tuesday and there was much mystery in his actions and he was not near as communicative as usual; while his friends felt that there was something serious on his mind, none of them could tell whether it was wool or war, but the superior court clerks record told the tale.
 Fetch is one of the best all-round stockmen and one of the best liked young business men in Northern Ari- zona. He has made splendid success of the sheep business during the past years, when it took energy and ability to come through the bad years, but there was hardly ever time when he could not produce a broad smile.
 The bride has taught school in Will Hams for couple years or more and IS one of the popular young ladies of that place.

SMALL FIRE AT MILTON.

A small fire in barn at Milton called the firemen out Monday even- ing. Its origin was unknown, but SUD- posed to have been started by children playing near with matches. The dam ages amounted to about $50 all told. Fire Chief Wilson was somewhat pro- voked at people getting in the way of the fire truck when on it's way to a fire and desires to serve notice that it is entitled to the right of way; those getting in the way with their vehicles are responsible for damages received, aside from the fact they are deliberately delaying the firemen from their work. It is expected that vehicles will drive close to the side of the street and stop until the fire truck passes them.
 It is up to the vehicle to get out of the way or take the consequences.

ROBERT KOCH WINS
 LIEUTENANT COMMISSION

Robert Koch, one of the first of the Flagstaff boys to volunteer his serv- ices to his country after war was de- clared, was last week commissioned lieutenant at Camp Kearny.
 After enlisting as private, Koch was immediately assigned to duty with the Arizona infantry on the bor- der. It was only short time until he became a non-commissioned officer, being made corporal of his company, and shortly thereafter top-sergeant. Not satisfied as non-com, he com menced to study and work for an ap- pointment to the officers training camp. The news of his success in the officers training camp will indeed be very great pleasure to his many Flagstaff friends.
 Lieutenant Koch upon receiving his commission was immediately ordered to report for duty in the East, and it is expected he will soon be on his way to France.

 The Northern Arizona Normal School has always been thoroughly American, always will be thoroughly American, and an insinuation of any other character is a slur upon the loyal American students who have graduated there, or who have or are attending the school.
 The people of Northern Arizona take great pride in that institution, the good work that has been done there in the past, and have great hopes for it's future.

GIRL FALLS 20 FEET
 ONTO JAGGED LIMB

The little ten-year-old daughter of James Baily fell from a pile of drift wood while attempting to cross Beav- CT creek Monday, striking on jagged edge of limb which penetrated her side, taking part of her clothing with it. It was big jam of drift wood and she landed some twenty feet below. Her girl companions who were with her fishing along the creek, ran to her assistance immediately. They found the jagged piece of wood still in the wound, but broken off so short that it could not be pulled out with their hands. One of the party at last succeeded in pulling it out with her teeth. The little girl was brought to town and taken to S. S. Acker's home and Dr. Manning called to dress the wound. She was getting along nicely at last report from her. She was a plucky little thing and stood the long trip up from Beaver creek uncom- plainingly and did not reach Flag staff until early Tuesday morning.

Will Play at HOlbrook.

Raymond Prochnow, manager of the Flagstaff baseball team, has had his aggregation out at the race track ground a few evenings getting into shape for game at Holbrook Sun day. The war has put a damper somewhat on baseball, but a pretty fair bunch has been scraped up to do battle against the Holbrook sluggers. The Holbrook boys have been winning from everything along the line since they were given good drubbing by the Flagstaffites a few weeks ago, and defeated the Woodruff team re- gently in twelve-inning contest. No doubt quite a bunch of fans will &C., company the team on its trip.

15Sth Band Royalty Entertained.


 Wednesday was gay day in Flag staff. Soldiers were everywhere. The 158th Infantry Band of Camp kearny stopped here on its tour of most of the large towns of Arizona.
 They arrived on the 5:45 train and were taken care of by the Board of Trade. It was seen that they break lasted in the different homes and that they met in front of the Commercial Hotel about 10:30 to be taken by auto, with number of young ladies, to Lake Mary for a picnic. It was a short day. After a delicious luncheon, boating, fishing and dancing, time passed all too soon, and it was time to bring the boys back to town. They were scheduled to play at the court house at 4 o'clock, but on account of the rain the concert was not until 8 o'clock in the evening. These thirty five men were dinner guests in the various homes, and what pleasure it was to have a real musician at your table-but even more, a soldier.

Much Activity Among Red Cross Workers.

Much Activity Among
 Red Cross Workers.
 The Local Chapter has "gone over the top" in everything attempted. The past week was busy one, as usual, and much was accomplished.
 A navy kit has been completed and placed in the window for those to see that are interested. It is quite differ ent from the army kit in that the ma terial is blue instead of khaki and the contents are not alike. It is expected that the ladies work ing on the Belgium relief box will have it completed the last of the week. This is popular work, and so many people ask if they may not help make clothing for these children.
 Many tourists have been in helping and it is appreciated.
 Such sacrifice as sugar means whole lot to children. Master Jack and little Miss Lucille Murphy sold candy amounting to $5.6O, made from the sugar they had abstained from using week or more. This amount was turned in to the Red Cross. These youhSSlers ueSerVe mucn praise.
 A hand embroidered luncheon set is to be raffled off within the next few days. Six hundred chances have been sold. Mrs. Wm. Rabbit has charge of the raffle on a set of white furs given to the Red Cross. The value is 25 cents or $30 Both are rare bar gains-and when you buy ticket you are helping good cause.
 A continuation of the rummage sale is to be held on the 22nd in the Red Cross work room.

Romans, as well as the Teutonic tribes
of Gaul. The Perslans made it repre-
sent the triumph of the Sun Of Nature
and used it as their New Year cele-
bration. They believed that the world
was Matched from an egg at the vernal
equinox. Hindus, many Eastern peo-
pies, and Romans, had it typify the
universe, the work of the Supreme De-
ity; the Teutonic tribes used it at
their celebration in honor of Ostara-
really Ashtorath, the Egyptian God
dess of the Moon-whom they called
Goddess of Spring, and from whom we
get the name now applied to our feast.
Our use of it is that of a symbol for
a symbolic idea.
The egg, at all times a symbol,
serves a three-fold purpOse--food,
plaything, and gift. Everywhere the
prescribed manner of use Is to boil it
hard in some non-poisonous stain, pref
erably red, the color of Christ's blood,
and decorate 1t with notices, land

Accounts of the use of Easter eggs
made interesting many pages Of re-
Iigious history.
Italian Easter Customs.
Emilianne gives the following de-
scription of an Italian practice: son
Easter eve and Easter day all the
heads of families send great chargers
full of hard-boiled eggs to the church,
to get them blessed, which the priests
perform by making several appointed
prayers and making great signs of
the cross over them, and %sprinkling
them with holy water. These blessed
eggs have the virtue of sanctifying the
e~ntrails of the body and are the first
fat or feshy nourishment they take
Hfter the abstinence of Lent. AS soon
) the eggs are blessed everyone ar
les his portion home and causeth a
arge table to be set in the best room
in the house, which they owe with
their best linen bestrewn with flow
ars, and place round about it a dozen
dishes of meat and the great charger

mt sight to see the tables set forth in
The houses of great persons, when they
expose on the side tables round about
the chamber all the plate they have In
the house and whatever else they have
that is rich and curious, in honor Of
the Easter feast"
In the roll of expenses for the royal
household of King Edward l, there oc-
ours this item for a certain Easter
Sunday: -Four hundred and a half
eggs, IS pence. These were stained
in boiling or covered with gold leaf and
afterwards distributed to the royal
household"
In early days all Christians greeted
each other at the Easter time with
the words "Surrexit" (Christ has ris-
an) and the response, "Surrexit
we're" (Christ has, indeed, risen).
Even now in Russia, where Easter is
set apart as a time for paying visits
as well as for going to church, friends
greet each other with the old form
of salutation, the kiss of peace, and
a gift of hard-boiled egg.
Easter Hare Everywhere.
Everywhere along with the candy
and hard-boiled eggs in confectioners'
windows we see the rabbit, or more
correctly, the hare. He trundles
a w~heelbarrow filed with eggs, or else
drags a single egg. Children are told
hares lay Easter eggs and are sent to
the fields to look for them. They are
also told that "babies' come in the
form of hares. The hare, the same
as the rabbit, in symbolism is, in fact,
"the type of the moon itself across
whose disk endless numbers of Hindus
have painted the little animal" 'Buhh-
ha took the shape of the hare that he
might feed his hungry fellow creatures
and was translated into the form of
the moon and in that form evermore
abides."
Indian mythology gays Indra, dis
guised as a famished pilgrim, was
praying for food when the hare, hav-
ing nothing but himself to give, threw
himself into the fire that he might be
roasted for his benefit. Out of graf
ltude Indra translated him to the
noon.

shortened, thai other feasts having
ideas in common with it have been
merged, that sacrifices have been done
away with, that the original foods,
with the exception of the egg, have
fallen into disuse-these are non-essen-

EASTER SYMBOLS

" o YOU ever wonder why we
symbols of Easter? Why we
connect the two? They are
symbols as old as man himself. East
er, apparently a solar festival con-
nected with the equinox, is in reality
a moon festival. The hare is the sym.
Dol of the moon, the measurer of
time, and the egg with it's buried germ
represents the revival of life. In the
mythology and religion of the most an
cient peoples both are used. Mod
ern people have Joined them in curious
fashion.
Our Feast of the Resurrection is a
mingling of the many feasts of many
peoples. 1t had it's direct origin in the
Festival of the Jewish Passover which
Christians continued to observe ac-
cording to established traditions. At
an appointed time in. a certain lunar
month the Lord commanded the Jews
to make prescribed sacrifices and to
eat certain foods-roast lamb, unleav-
ened bread, and bitter herbs-saying,
sit is the sacrifice of the Lords Pass
over, who passed over the houses Of
the children of Israel in Egypt when
he smote the Egyptians and delivered
our houses" Later ito suit the Cir
cumstance of their history as a type of
their departure from the land of Egypt
the G was made a part Of the fur
nishing of the table with the Paschal
Lamb"
Celebrating the Passover.
Through the centuries the fundamen-
tai ideas of why and when to cele-
brate the Passover have not changed.
AS a moon festival we srill give thanks
for salvation through rebirth. In de-
%termining the time of the festival the
Jews and the eastern church follow
the old lunar reckoning which some
times brings 1t before the vernal eQui-
nox. The western church, though it
adopted the sun reckoningS-the Gregg
rian correction Of the calendar-for
other things yet clings to a moon reck-
oning for Easter and makes it "the
first Sunday after the full moon which
happens upon or next after h 21st
IF March. If the full comes on
Sunday, Easter is the next Sunday
hereafter" This fixes the date be-
tween the 22nd of March and the 25th
If April. Twice in the nineteenth
century Jews and Christians cele-
)rated on the same day and three
ines during this century the dates
III coincide. That the holiday pc
