H. |. IF l. PROBLEM |S DISCUSSED BY
 THE ROTARY CLUB

Informal but intensely earnest dis cussion of the high cost of living problem in Arizona featured yester- days Rotary club luncheon at the American cabaret, the second since the August recess. Walter Switzer was chairman of the day and Wallace But ton, president of the club, presided.
 The topic was introduced by Charles Christy, secretary of the Merchants and Manufacturers association who presented a report on the conference last Saturday at the state house be- tween Governor Campbell and the gov ernors of the Arizona Retail Mer- chants association, at which time the high cost of living in Arizona and the general condition of industrial unrest throughout the nation were discussed.
 MT. Christy spoke briefly of the common disposition to forget the over head expenses of from 25 to 33 per cent borne by retailers. This, he said, should be remembered before charges of profiteering are entered against them.
 Others who spoke on the question were Dr. J. c. Norton, H. D. Mcvay, Thomas Stewart, Walter Switzer, G. W. Barrows and Lee NJ. Fitzhugh.
 A. Henderson Stockton, member of the committee from the Musical events club which will sponsor a ser ies of five concerts by big artists here this fall and winter, spoke briefly, urg- ing the members of the club to CO., operate with the Musical Events club in furthering the sale of the 200 sea son tickets which remain.
 Yesterdays meeting of the Rotar- ians marked the first lap in the six weeks attendance contest between the "hairies' and the "baldies." Strict roll can was kept by the opposing cap tains, N. D. Sanders and Russell Free man.

midi of Redfeld, S. d., living near
Cottonwood Lake, purchased from Mr..
C. p. Dexheimer of Spencer, S. d., the
greatest son of his herd boar, Path
finder Giant. Mr. Dexheimer says that

lutely smooth. The deal was a
straight cash deal and the considera-
ton was $4,000. Mr.. Dexheimer said,
II realize that this is a good price for
a boar but he is worth the money and
therefore | will not take any less for
him." After the deal was closed he
requested that i'm case the boar was
sold at any time he should have a
chance to buy him back. II hate to
see him go, because he is the best hog

Texas Aviation Field
Richfeld, Texas, April s


Dear Dad:
Have been putting off writing be-
cause I've been expecting to get home
very soon. Now there are only 65
of us left here and we won't be in
more than S or 6 weeks more. 1t
wouldn't do you any good to try to get
ne out through the exemption board
because If had thot there was any
chance I'd of had you do that a long
time ago. There is any number of
fellows who are trying to get out hat
way and have gone as far as their
governor or senator. The So of us
that are left will absolutely have to
stay until conditions are such that
they can let us go and that won't be
long. ! want to get out a whole lot
worse than you want me to get out
and I'd surely be tickled to death to
be home now. We've just figured it
out that we will have to be content
and make the best OF ouT lot. | know
you must have thot it funny | didn't
answer your last letters but up to last
Thursday | still had a chance of get
ting out II surely was a disguised
bunch when we learned we had been
picked to stay on the field until We
weren't needed any more. Just to
think that there are %squadrons that
have left here for overseas and are
back already, discharged. We won't
get any credit for the part we've done
in this war, but they will. There's
no use kicking tho and all we can
do is to grin and bear the old drag
until we are turned loose.
We are working every day the same
as usual, in fact, we are working
harder than i'm war time. ! have been
put in charge of the Dope House and
we are covering more wings and fusel-
ages than they did at any time when
the war was in full blast.
The best thing about this is that
we have civilian guards now and per-
manent kitchen police so that takes
a little work off of our shoulders.
Well Dad it is nearly 1880 and time
| for the movies to start at the X. G.
| hall SO I'll close until the next time.
| Say hello to everybody and tell them
| I'll be home very soon.
Give my love to all the folks. with
love.
