Two Arizona Mining Men, Veterans of Two Wars, Now Returned to Civilian Duties.

Two Arizona Mining Men, Veterans of Two Wars, Now Returned to
 Civilian Duties.
 A Camp Dix, New Jersey, special to the Chicago Tribune, has this to say of "Bill Davidson, a well known Su- perior mining man:
 'Tn two hours Lieut.. Col. John C. Greenway and his orderly, Private ''Bill'' Davidson. became private citi- zens. Greenway is an Arizona min ing king, Rough Rider, Yale foot ball player, a hero of the Yankee division ''Bill'' is also a Rough Rid CT and he was so devoted to Green way that when he was turned down by the enlistment officials because of age he slowed himself away in a crate of quartermaster's supplies and made the passage to France unde- tected.
 "Once in France, he was up against it again, for he had no money or pas ports, and couldn't speak the lang1l- age but he made his way to the front. Here he was held and was about tc be sent back to the United States when he managed to get word to Cap tain Greenway. then with the First Engineers of the First Division. That officer, astcnished but pleased at the sagacity of the westerner, put the matter up to the higher officials, and got permission to enlist the veteran Rough Rider at the front.
 From that time on they were never separated. They went through most of the big battle side by side during the terrible fighting at Chateau Thier ry, and later in the Argonne, where both men were thrice gassed. It was in the latter fighting that Lieut.. Col Greenway, in command of a regiment took 96O men over the top and came back with 260''

PHYSICAL DEPARTMENT OF
 Y. M. C. A. WILL REOPEN

Since the second flu epidemic has materially subsided, it is hoped that we can reorganize and stimulate in terest in the physical pyogram' of the Y. Particularly since the disease has left some of us in bad condition, which all will agree can be remedied by the Y games and equipment. The activities include volley ball and other good games, boxing wrestling, and apparatus exercises, if you want them. There is an activity for men of all ages. Get out with the other fellows and revitalize yourself-put new blood in your system. Remember this, "A woman, poor thing, is as old as she looks," but "a man is as old as he feels.'' Get in the game-play and feel like kid.
 The High School Auditorium is the place; the nights are Mondays and Thursdays. and the time of action is 7:30 sharp. Do not make any other engagements for those nights
 The ball will start rolling next Monday night, February 3rd., and we want you to come in on this for youl own good and the good of your fel lows. A volley ball league is to be formed, and a fine dinner will be served the winners at the close ot the season. A handball court may be put up in the near future, and there is not better exercise than handbal for what ails you.
 Come out; get into one of the teams; then invite the women to set you perform-who doesn't like tt have some fair spectators keep theil eyes on him while he shows the world that he hasn't forgotten how tc play?
 Remember, there is no extra charge , for these physical activities, if yot are a member of the Y. If you are not member. it is a simple matter , to join.
 Now, then, all together-pull, push boost-and then come out yourself.

Those ARC. Heifer Calves

At last thera are definite in
structioDs from the Denver Head
quarters Of the A. R. C. Heifer
Calf drive and the disposition to
be made Of them.
The suggestion is. that when
weather conditions are favorable
the A. R. C. Calves be rounded
up and sold at a, special auction
sa e, giving it as, wide publicity
as possible.
At meeting, of the Executive
Committee, of the Roy Chapter
held last Saturday evening. the
matter was taken up and discuss
ed with. the result that Irwin Og-
den ST, was appOintedto attend.
TO the collection and disposition
of the A. r. c. Calves donated
to this Chapter.
1t is our belief that TIE best
results will be obtained bv let
ting the calves remain with the
herds from which they were CIV
On until conditions will make
the delivery and sale practical.
We therefore urge all parties
who have branded a calf for the
Red Cross to hold it until ar
rangements can be made to get
them all together.
If there are any who cannot
keep them longer for any reason
please deliver them to Mr.. Ogden
at Roy and they will be cared for
until sold. Donors will be given
preference if they wish to buy
back the calves they donated,

Water Bonds

At the regular meeting OF the
Village Trustees and Mayor OF
Roy Monday evening, an ordi-
nance was unanimously passed
ito issue $45,OOO.OO Bonds for
the Water Works, voted last
year.
The ordinance appears in this
issue Of the S-A, and the Bonds
will be issued and sold in due
process.
The plan now is to buy the. five
lots between the oil tanks, and
the Base Ball park, abutting on
the r. r. house-track and drill a
we'll, 800 to 100 feet in depth,
or till the water strata is pierced
for sufficient supply and. erect
pumping and storage equipment
and lay water mains on the
principal streets.
Roy is going to get in line for
the big things that are coming
for the near future and this is
the first long stride she has taken.
Here's hoping it will be better
than the fondest hopes of the
village administration.

Vandalism

When FIR. Vachon and the
workmen went to prepare the
new Sisters house for the coming
of the Ladies from the east, they
found half or more Of the win
dows broken by throwing rocks
through them and twas nee
essary to replace seven large
panes Of glass to repair the dam
age.
The new house is credit to
Roy and it is a dirty shame that
vandals should have chosen it for
an object Of destruction. An
effort is being made to find out
who did it and punish them for
it. Breaking glass has seemed to
have a fascination for a certain
kind of young criminals ever
since there has been glass to
break. 1t is not likely that any
prejudice or malice was at the
bottom Of the deed but merely
pure, unaduterated cussedness
for which a sound beating would
be an eft ectiye remedy.

which was written by a soldier
in France and sent home to his
wife.
You say be can't stand the arny.
The life is too rous.r for him2
Do You think he Is s.uy better
Than some other mothers Tom
on Jim2
You brought him uh like. a girl,
lie dosen't smoke or drink is
your brag,
If all the rest of the boys were
like him,
What would becoaae of the
Flag?
You say, let the rough Class
do the fighting.
They are used to the beans
and the stew"
Pm glad I'm classed with the
roughnecks,
Who will fight for the Red,
White, and Blue. N
You say his girl couldn't stand it
To see him off with the rest.
Don't you think she'd be glad he
enlisted
When she felt a Germans hot
breath ON her breast?
Think of the women in Belgium,
Of the crueIties they had to
bear.
Do you want the same to happen
To your innocent daughter so
fair?
Thank God that the Starsin old
Glory
Are not blurred with that kind
II Of stains
D2caQse there are ten milliH
roughnecks,
Who have red blood in then
veins.
They go and drill in bad weather
And come in with a grin OF
their face,
While your darling sits in Thu
parlor
And lets a MAN fight in his
place.
Maybe we do smoke and gamble
\ But we fight as our forefatherl
did;
so 90 warm the milk in his bottle.
Thank God we don't reeC
your KID.
