Restrictions On Building
Projects Are Removed

John A. Freeman, of the Non
War Construction Committee for
Navajo county, received t b i s
week the following letter, which
is self-explanatory:
''The Arizona State Council of
Defense has been advised today
by the War Industries Board that
all remaining restrictions on
building projects have been re-
moved. This order went into
effect on Nov. 21, and from that
time all building operations of
whatever character may proceed
without permits, either from the
War Industries Board or the
State Council of Defense.
Under this ruling, it will not
be necessary for any person to
apply to either the County Coun-
ellis of Defense or the State Coun-
Gil for a permit to build, and all
rules and regulations made by
the War Industries Board gov
erning construction are rescinded
and annulled.
Very truly yours,
G. E. ADDAMs,
Vice-Chairman and Director.

CORPORAL BUSHMAN
WRITES FROM FRANCE

Mr.. and Mrs. H. F. Bushman
received this week two letters,
written on different dates, from
their son, Corp. Silas Bushman,
who is with the U. S. army in
France. Below we give a portion
of both letters:
France, Sept. %, 1918.
Dear Ones at Home:
You will please excuse the
pencil. 1t is the best / can do
as sit in my machine dugout
with my tablet on my knee.
Life in the trenches is taking
on symptoms of the dramatic,
but | will have to wait tilI later
on to tell you all about it. How
ever, it is not half bad on us fell
lows who were raised in good
old Arizona and are used to
roughing it.
You have read of the big
American drive beginning Sept.
IL. Well, / was able to repre-
sent you that day, and those fol-
lowing. Saw and experienced
things | never dreamed of be-
fore. All day there was fighting
in royal style, on land and in the
air. And all night long, on the
far distant skyline, l could see
fires, eating up, with their mad
flames, towns and villages in
the wake of the retreating Ger
mans. Do you know our grand
old U. S. is taking the part of
the big brother to these weaker
nations? When our big guns
opened up, about O'Clock on
the morning of the 18th. strong
emotions came over me; it SEEM
ed those laundering guns spoke
for Humanity, in the name of
Justice. l also experienced a
sense of security. When day
light came the scene intensified.
The great guns kept on rumbling,
throngs of soldiers in khaki
went over the top and kept on
going and going and the air
seemed alive with air-planes

Some Of Our Citizens
just Want to Know (?)

The article we had in last
weeks Herald regarding a "Sure
Cure for Pneumonia, sent out
by the government, has been
creating no small amount of
comment among Snowfake's
populace, especially as to how to
go about it to obtain the cures
main mentioned medicinal arti-
Gle alcohol.
The government probably did
not have in mind that Arizona is
a dry state when it published
the cure, thinking no doubt only
of her "wet" domains way back
east.
However, possibly if you can
make your nearest public health
officer conclude that you are
dying of pneumonia. you might,
after going through a few yards

climb.
The fire, having such a good
start, was hard to get under con-
troll, but Snowfiake's volunteer
fire Iaddies never ceased with
their good work. although it
looked for a time as though the
building was doomed to burn
down.
The confagration is said to
have been caused from candles
which were being used in fumi-
eating the rooms of the building.
and it is also natural to believe
that some of the chemicals in
the room exploded from the heat,
thus causing greater danger than
otherwise would have been en-
cOuntered. A high wind was
blowing at the time from the
south-the room is on the south
side-and this also made matters
worse.
1t is lucky the fire was discov-
cred in it's early stages, or
a different story would have
to be told. The damage to the
laboratory room in a money way
will probably amount to FIVE or
six hundred dollars.

Snowflake Soldier Boy Reported Killed in Battle
Room IN Basement Of Academy Catches Fire Last Saturday Night
NOW FOR WATERWORKS
AND SEWERAGE SYSTEM

Snowflake now has an electric
light plant installed and in work
ing order, so the next thing on
the program is a waterworks
system and sewerage. We doubt
II there is a town Of equal size
in the u S. that hasn't either
one or both Of these needful en-
terprises.
A waterworks system could be
put in at very little cost, consid-
erlng the benefits to be derived
from such a project. Water
could be pumped from Silver
Creek into a stand-pipe, which
would have to be constructed on
a high point in order to give a
good water pressure for fire ex-
tinguishing. 1t could be made a
community affair, and every
property owner a shareholder in
the enterprise. All the work of
digging bitches and the laying
of pipe could be done by those
holding interests in the system,
or the construction work could
be let by contract to one or more
shareholders, requiring in the
contract the employmentof those
owning stock in the system.
The water could be utilized for
home consumption, as well as
for fire and sewerage purposes;
and, again. the fire insurance
rate would be greatly reduced if
the town had system of this
kind.
Let's all pull strong for water
works and sewerage.
