SONORA DANCE NETS
S132.75 FOR GENE
Terry FENCE FUND

On Friday evening, May %, dance
was held in Sonora for the benefit of
Inc cemetery fence fund. It was no
night which one would ordinarily pick
cut to hold a dance on, had the
weather conditions been known be-
. forehaId. The weather was decidedly
inciement, being rainy and disagree
able in the extreme. Furthermore,
; the regular Ray Con. club dance was
held in Ray, and this latter fact would
tend to keep dance lovers in town
away from Sonora. Despite the ad-
~erse conditions, large crowd at
tended and the sum of $132.75 was
netted. A goodly sum, indeed, and
one for which no alibis are needed.
The dance was held in Cosmopoli-
tan hall and the music was furnished
. by the Sonora orchestra. 1t is need
less to comment on the quality of the
music. AS usual, it was excellent.
On the superfine floor of Cosmopoli-
tan hall, Sonora dance lovers were
able to enjoy themselves to their full
est extent.
When one stops to consider the
Cemetery Fence Fund" the name in
itself has little significance, but on
further thought, it certainly must be
realized that this fund has to perform
Il useful and even a sacred duty. A
burial ground is a holy place, and
usually where conditions are more
favorable, a cemetery receives the
best of attention. At present, cattle
and burros wander at will on Rays
most sacred ground, desecrating the
final resting places of our loved ones.
A fence to protect this ground is a
crying need. These benefit dances
unquestionably deserve our unswerv
ing support and the residents of So
nora and the Sonora committee are
tc be congratulated on the manner in
which they so generously contributed

TIL 'se boys went over there to help
figll. cur battles. Some of them have
already returned to Ray, while others
will perhaps never come oack. To
every man who left the employ of the
Ray Con. and who has returned, his
old Job has been giyeE. The company
il fulfilling it's obligation to the tier
and every discharged soldier, formerly
employed, fnds work awaiting him
when he arrives in Ray. Such spirit
on the company's part is worthy of
the utmost commentator. 1t has
done, ald is still doing, it's bit
Now, Low about you fellows who
didn't so and wanted to? 1t is not too
late to serve now The army and
navy needs men and needs them bad
ly. There must be some men left
who want 10 enter the service. Now
IS your chance to prove that you
wanted to go and couldn't. You CAN
go, and anyone who is not held back
by hoh he circumstances, should go.
Captain smith, of Camp Gates, in
cnaarge of the local recruiting, re-
marked the other day: Il know that
Pinal county is not very fruitful
field. She has already contributed
more than her share in men and dol
lars. Her records show that. Still,
l think that there may be some men
woo arc anxious to enter Ire service;
men, who previously were too young
to enter the army, but low have
reac chcd In" age at which adventure
Calls. surely there are some anxious
to see life, anxious to earn good
roney, ay2lous to be fitted fol the
task of meeting the world! The army
offers that chance. Take it, boys, be-
fore it becomes too late"
u lis GEMS that our army at the
present time has become just the
school for young men to learn to be
fitted to fight the battles OF life. An
army man is no longer looked down
on; he is nonored instead, lCr the uni
form has become the best insignia of
our country Americans love it and
foreigners respect it. A man dis
charged from the army has seif-re-
spect, self-reliance and a knowledge
of the world. He is morally clean and
physically fit. Come on, meD of Final,
enlist and relieve some OF our boys
who have already done more than
their share!

Is Not Necessary
Associated Press

PARIS, Nov. 24-The withdrawal
Of the American troops from Coblenz
is not considered in the American
peace conference circles as necessary
in consequence of the failure of the
United States Senate to ratify the
peace treaty. The United States is
still one of the allies and associated
powers and the postponement of ac-
ton on the treaty will not change its
relation to the associated powers or
Germany.

Western Union Has
New Wire Installed

The fact that Greenwood does the
third largest telegraph business in the
state, necessitated the Western Union
Telegraph Co., to install in the local
Offices here, a new wire, which permits
the operators to receive and send
messages at the same time. The
wire has 5000 resistance ohms, which
makes this possible. The installation
of the new wire was completed last
week and is now in operation. This
new device will require the addition OF
another operator to the local force.
