BALL GAME DRAWS A GOOD
 CROWD
Visiting Team Wins In Fast & Fas- cinating Game; The Score 55 to 21 in Favor Of Stafford; One of Clifton Players Being
 III Put the Home Play
 CTS at Disadvantage

On Saturday night. November 22, the fastest game of the season was played between the Clifton and Saf- ford High School teams The boys on both teams played a good clean game, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all present.
 The game ended in score of 55 to 21, in favor of Stafford. Owing to the fact that one of Clifton's best men was seriously i'll and therefore unable to play, the Clifton team was there fore left without center. This was indeed unfortunate for Clifton would have stood a much better chance if the regular center had been there.
 After the game, refreshments were served to the two teams, and other guests, by the Freshmen Girls. A nice dance which was enjoyed by all con cluded the evenings program
 The Clifton High School Students Association wishes to express it's appreciation for the hearty financial support given by the people of Ciiff- ton last Saturday. The association was under quite heavy expense but managed to come out on top, due r. the large crowd at the game.

MIR. HODGSON
 ADDRESSES CLUB

Friday noon the Clifton Luncheon Y. M. c. A. building. A good lunch eon-as usual-was in readiness for the members and their guests and there was an equal readiness of ap- petites En the absence of the chairman, Mat Danenhauer presided with ease and grace The number was not so large as at previous meet ings but the program offered was good and appreciated by the club. The duet by Misses Harrison and Nardelli received an encore, as did al so the solo by MT. Wright. To eat ones lunch under the inspiring strains of good music, either vocal or instru- mental or both, puts one in a pleas ant frame of mind and thereby serves as an aid to digestion.
 The chief feature of the program was an address by MT. Hodgson, of Morenci. His talk was practical and sensible. dealing with a vital topic waste and the elimination of waste, economic waste and waste of labor and life. MT. Hodgson is an inter- esting speaker and his talk was heart fly appreciated. By unanimous vote of the club he was made an honorary member, though afterward, in a hu- morous vein. expressing his prefer ence for active membership.
 There was a timely discussion by R. H. Pringle and Pete Riley, in which MT. Hodgson participated, pertaining to the Red Cross Christmas seal drive there being an evident purpose to see that Greenlee County contributed it's quota to this worthy cause.
 in promoting fraternity and in de Veiorirg a spirit of cooperation Il community enterprises and in good causes, the club is iustifying it's eX- istence and fulfilling it's functions.

S|LvERTO GO ID sl.4O AN OUNCE |S THE
 PREDICTION
Abnormal Demand in Foreign Coun- tries Brings the Prediction That White Metal Will Soar Above Gold Parity; Much Coin
 Being Melted.

Denver. Colo, Nov. 22.-Arthur and Canadian capital, registered at the Savoy Hotel, was yesterday ad- vised that 100000 ounces of bar silver had been sole in New York at S1 40 to the ounce. The settlement price sent out was $1.27 and this, ac- cording to the Wall Street Journal, is usually 3 to , cents less than the actual sales in either small or large lots Manufacturers and jewellers, to say nothing of the moving picture in- dustry, are liberal users of silver at present. So much so that silver coins are going into the melting pot to meet the demand. Yesterdays Lon don figure was 69 pence, and this with exchange at normal. means S1.4S in New York
 For an explanation of the rise in the price of silver to above the gold parity of silver dollars, one must look chiefly to the Far East, says the Wall Street Journal. It is principally the demand from that quarter, first from India and latterly from China which has driven the price to a :evei not witnessed in almost five decades. Net many months after the outbreak of the war a scarcity of silver rupees appeared in India.
 With the placing of orders for Ir dian products by the allied nations, the interior trade of the country com menced to expand on an enormous scale, and the requirements of the media of payment increased cores pondingly. At the same time the political disaffection in India which was more or less instigated by Ger man agents. resulted in the public showing a decided preference for sil- yer rupees, as against paper currer cy which is redeemable in the silver coins.

MIR. SCOTLAND DIES FROM INJURIES
 RECEIVED
The, Deceased Had Been Superintend- ent Of The Mines of The Ari- zona Copper Go. For Many Years; Widely Known as
 Writer on Mining
 Topics.

Peter Bain Scotland, age 43, gen. eral superintendent of the mines of the Arizona Copper Company, passed to his final account Sunday, 800 p. m. November 23. in the hospital of the company at Morenci, his death re- sulting from the injuries received in the accident previously reported It was two weeks to a day-almost to the hour-from the time of the acci- dent, when his car went over the em-, bankment on the Clifton -Morenci highway, to the time of his death. MT. Scotland's injuries were more serious than was generally known to- the public, a fracture of the skull and a consequent blood clot, baffling the best surgical skill and care to cor rect or alleviate.-
 MT Scotland had been a resident of Clifton since 1902, coming here di- rect from Airdrie, Scotland, to take a He was graduate of the Royal Col lege of Mines, London, and before coming to this country had been a lecturer on metallurgy He has writ ten extensively on mining and mining methods and many of his papers have been read before mining congresses. His service and ability were soon recognized and from time to time he received transfers and promotions until in 1913 he was made general superintendent of the mines of the Arizona Copper Co. Having been faithful over a few things he was made ruler over many, sums up his career and achievement.
 The personal characteristics of Mr Scotland were not unobserved by his fellow men. He was man full of energy and the zest of life, striving for accomplishment and mastery, ad- vancing his ideals as they appeared ,, near of realization. His informa- tion extended over a wide range, his sympathies were broad, and whatev- ger was of human interest or appeal had an interest for him. Withal he had the facility-the faculty-of win ming the confidence and the loyalty of those who served with him and under him. His untime1y and tragic end awakens the keenest sorrow of the entire Clifton-Morenci district. | I, YT,..z day, zoo p. m., at the home of the deceased, conducted by Rev. John P MacPhie and Rev Curry H. Love, the 1 former giving a biographical sketch of Che departed who had been a mem Der and trustee of the Presbyterian Church. The service was of unusu al solemnity. added to by the singing of the Morenci Chapel Quartet. The remains were thereafter brought tc Clifton and on Tuesday night the Masonic Lodge of Clifton, with mem bers from Morenci, assembled to pay a last tribute of respect according to the ritual of the order, MT. Scotland having been an honored mason. Or Wednesday morning, the remains accompanied by J. C.. Cooper. were taken to Los Angles for interment ir Inglewood cemetery.
 MT Scotland had no relatives ir this country: he was married il Chicago in 1908 and in the accident which ended his life Mrs. Scotland was also seriously injured but she is now well on the road to recovery
 The public sympathize deeply with her in her double misfortune.
