From Far Off Greece

Secretary Lush, of the commercial club, is in receipt of a letter from A. G. Psalts, scientific agriculturist of Larissa, Greece, acknowledging lre- ceipt." of booklets and literature com- corning the Salt River valley.
 At the time The Republicans big cotton edition came out last winter, Mir. Lush was furnished with several hun = dred copies for free distribution over the country. MT. Psalts says in his letter, The Arizona Republican gives me very good picture of your country, and l will be delighted if you will hand in my name for a subscription to it for a period of six months"
 The more than 10000 copies of this splendid edition went broadcast every- where preaching the gospel of pros- perity and happiness in the Salt River valley, and the advertising value of the issue was probably without parallel in its benefits to this section.

What might have been serious ac- cident happened yesterday evening when a Ford occupied by Henry Nunn and L. G. Collins overturned on the Phoenix highway. The two young men were coming from Phoenix and car was behind them. Another car was coming behind them farther back and was driven by woman. She was coming at a high rate of speed and passed the car back of the Ford and swung over toward the Ford. MT. Collins was driving and saw that they were going to be hit, so he quickly turned the car out of the road. The car hit a huge rock which had been left in the road by workmen and this collison caused the steering rod to break. and the car rolled over the em- bankment. MT. Nunn was pinned un- der the car and MT. Collins was thrown clear No serious trouble was eXperi- enced except few bruises and a badly damaged Ford.

MESA MAN HURT IN
 MOTOR JAR ACCIDENT

MESA, Aug. 5.-H. D. Fouts, of the Pickens ranch, came near being the victim of a serious accident yesterday when his car was struck by another driven toward Tempe when, at a point just beyond the bridge, the accident occurred. MT. Fouts version of the affair is that he was meeting a car and Peterson attempted to pass between the two. Seeing that he was about to collide with the coming car, he swerved sharply and caught the Fouts auto, turning it over twice. Fouts fortunate ly escaped injury other than a severely bruised wrist and leg. He can scarcely walk but the trouble seems limited to a severe sprain. MT. Peterson took him up and carried him on into Tempe, sending back for the damaged auto and stating that he would look after the damages thereto.
