MORE ROOM FOR THE
 WILLIAMS SCHOOL

The trustees of the Williams School along with the Superin- tendent, Prof. Cureton, look ed for an increase in the enroll ment in the Wms. School this year, and supposed they would be ready for it-for a normal increase. But they had a sur prise in store that took them completely off their feet. When all of the enrolment cards had been turned in they found that the Williams school building had suddenly become entirely too small. And what was moro they found they were ono teacher short. They had all of the teachers they had expected to need, but that was one too few. The high school this year is by far the largest that Will Hams has ever known, and the remainder of the crowding is in the primary grades.
 The situation is one which re- quires quick action and that is what the School Board has pro- ceeded to get. They cast about over this state and other states, in search of another teacher, but without success. In the emergency they have fin- ally persuaded Mrs. Fletcher By to again take up the fertile and this makes an entirely sat- isfactory solution ofthe prblem of getting the extra teacher But where are they to put the, teacher and the extra schc<lrs? There is no disputing the inn perative need of another school room this year. The school trustees, proposing to lose as little time as necessary, have set MT. Boehnke to work on plans for new wing to be ad- ded to the west side of the school building. This wing will contain two large rooms and will provide ample room for this year and perhaps for next Work will begin on the new structure just as soon as pos sible and the work will be rush. Led right thru to completion.
 If the Williams school grows as much next year as it has this new high school building will be a necessity for the following year. It is time that Williams people begin to give thought to this matter. Where should the building be built? will be the most difficult point to settle. It will have to be settled in some manner, within the next three years.

Off With Old Wife; On With
 The New All In One Day

R. J. Monaghan, a young man from Williams, set a record, as far as this county is concerned, here. Tuesday, when he got a divorce from one wife in the morning and married another in the afternoon.
 The wife he eliminated from future consideration, on the ground of desrtion, was Mrs. Jessie Monaghan. The new wife was Miss Elizabeth Silver stone of Los Angeles, whose good looks were so marked that probably Monaghan's regret at losing his first wife was some what alleviated.
 Judge J. E. Jones united the first knot, and Justice R. J. Kidd tied the second, in the presence of Miss Louise Green law and Frank Harrison.

WILL CELEBRATE IN.
 DEPENDENCE DAY

The Spanish-American and Mexican residents of Williams will celebrate Mexican Inde- pendence Day, September Is, with fitting ceremonies. There will be program with music furnished by Barnes Orchestra, speaking and recitations. Tues day morning the American and Mexican flags will be raised to- gether accompanied by music.

To all of these functions the general public is invited, the committees in. charge wishing it clearly under stood that all Americans will be cordially received and vel comed.
 To those who claim Mexico as their mother country, the 18th of September stands out just as the Fourth of July does to natives of the United States, 1t marks the date in history when their country secured re- lease from the intolerable bond age to Spain, in 1910. With proud reverence for the heroes who won Mexican freedom, and with kindliest feelings for the sister republic of the North, now their home, the natives of Mexico meet on this day to rem der thanksgiving and praise:
 On the program for Monday night, MT. L. s. Williams is in- cluded among the speakers. It should be remembered that a cordial invitation is extended to all. Those Americans who attended the services will help to promote the good feeling be- tween the two nationalities.

Would Try Ranch Life

Rev. Reid left for Vendor, Arizona, on Monday to meet his brother Jay, a cattleman in that part of the state, on a mat ter of business. Rev. Reid's brother G. H. Reid took up a homestead on the Bill Williams river in north western Yuma County, several years ago, but died before proving up on the ranch. The homestead now falls to his heirs, five living brothers. Three of these ara in the east and two in Arizona. Jay Reid has been empowered by the other heirs to represent them in connection with the homestead. It is impossible for him to move onto the ranch and complete the work necessary i1 order to complete final proof. and he asked Rev. Reid to do so instead. It is with this in mind that Rev. Reid has made the trip to Vendor. If he de- cided to take up his residence on the homestead, it will be necessary for him to give up active work in the ministery for a year or so. He has written the Methodist Conference about the matter, and expects to be released temporarily from a charge as minister and to go onto the homestead about the middle of October. He will re. turn to Williams in time for the regular Sunday Service here.

|ARMERS DETERMINED
 ID INSTALL MILL

The Farmers about Williams Eltho experiencing some diffi-
 ulty are determined to install D mill at Williams. At their
 asst meeting it was found that 1t would be impossible to raise Sufficient funds from the sale of stock to the farmers, to install the mill at once, and for that reason the matter was left in, i the hands of MT. L. w. Curetor, (who stated that hewould install |the mill himself if the farmers were not able to do so as an organization. Altho the farm CTS were not satisfied to give up the hope of having a farmers mill here, owned and controlled by the farmers, the meeting ad- ,journed with the understanding that MT. Cureton should put in the mill himself.
 Since the adjournment of tho last meeting of the farmers number have talked with MT. Cureton about the matter and MT. Cureton has decided to hold the offer open for the farmers for awhile longer, while going ahead with the proposition himself and seeing that the outfit formerly con- tracted for is reserved for in stallment here. All farmers in terested should see MT. Cureton and let him know what they think about the matter and what each one would be able to do later toward helping finance the mill.
 The difficulty of raising the sufficient. funds from the sale of stock to purchase the mill at once arises from the fact that most of the farmers will need to realize something from this years crops before they will have the money to spare for this purpose. MT. Cureton, i11 agreement with the other farm CTS, would prefer to see the mill owned and operated by com pany of farmers, but in case not enough farmers are secured to make the company a success, he will install the mill himself. Tn either case Williams vii, have a mill to grind this years crop of wheat.

HAS ANYBODY HERE
 SEEN BAUMANN?
No one answers.


 There is heard only the means and curses of those who trusted him and whom he failed.
 It was several weeks ago that Baumann left for Los Angeles. leaving word here that he went to buy tools for his toy shop. Incidentally it was necessary to take along all the spare cash that he could possibly rake up. by borrowing right and left wherever he could secure any credit. It appears that he bought some tools in Los An. geles and ordered them ship ped to Williams: and there al! trace of ths German ends so far as Williams people have been able to gather any infor nation.
 At first there were many who still believed that Baumann was acting on the square and that he would return with the tools which he needed for his shop. As time passed, with no trace of this contractor, the faith of these have weakened and now only the doubters are heard, and the opinion is gen. eral, that Baumann has ab- scounded leaving his creditors to satisfy themselves as best they may out of the property that he left here,
 At first it was thought that this would be sufficient to sat isfy all the creditors, but as the full extent of his indebtedness was learned, it was found that his liabilities considerably out balanced his resources so far. as his property is known. Those with first mortgages have hast. ened to protect themselves. The oher creditors do not stand a very good show of collecting their bills from Baumann.
 Why did he do it? Why didn't he stick to his guns and keep up@the fight to the end? He might have worked his way out of the financial we'll he had fallen into. if he had have stuck. Others have done it. Failing in that, he could have done his best by those who had trusted him-and that much at least, he owed them. But no he turned and fled. Perhaps it was that streak of yellow. which we are told runs down the back of every Hun, and makes it impos- sible for him to fight a losing battle.

WILLIAMS CLAIMS
 A WAR ROMANCE

The great war has now been over for several months and it began to look as tho Williams was to miss the pleasure of congratulatng one of her sons for a war romance, but the clouds of disappointment have now been dissipated.. We now claim a war romance. One of our sons and not our most TO- mantle by nature-has brought home a bride met in France.
 "Cy" Young, who resigned his position with the Santa Fe in order to Ego across with the famous band of the 158th h. fantry, returned to Williams the first of the week, from New Providence, N. J., bringing with him a bride from that dis tant town. From Cy's reluc- tant ips-a1ways reluctant when talking about himself, tho not so when praising his friends-we have secured the bare skeleton of the story of the romance. While with the 158th band in France furn- ishing music for the soldiers on leave. MT. Young met Miss Lil- lian Gray who had charge of the home department of the American Red Cross at Paris. It was the task of Miss Gray along with her assistants to make things so homelike for the soldier boys and their relatives and lady friends who might be in Paris.
 She evidently succeeded in making things so homelike for Cy that he offered her the life long job of making things hone-hke for him. And she we'll she must have been pleas. ed with the position offered, for here she is in Williams, happily engaged at her new occupation She certainly made no mistake of judgment either-for if there is any man in Williams who has the faculty of making things about a home pleasant, that man is Cy Young The en.. Etire community risesstp eonprat- ulate the happy couple and to wish them long and happy married life.
 The marriage was a quiet home affair, conducted at the home of the brides narents. in New Providence, on September 4th.
 On Tuesday night. the newli. weds were pleasantly surprised by a party of young folks who treated them to a good old time charivari, conducted in hearty Western style. After the music ceased, the young serenaders deluged the couple with sincere congratulations and good wish es, which but reflected the friendship and goodwill felt for MT. and Mrs. Young by the entire community.
