every effort was to relieve suffering

the class took up millinery, and the
creations on view at the fair excited
the admiration of many Ray ladies,
who had thought that "it couldn't be
done" Some of the hats, of chiffon
and georgette crepe, were triumphs Of
the millinery art, and nothing less
according to observers who attended,
the fair. "They looked more like
Partisan inceptions than one would
have believed" was a statement con-
cerning the hats.
Some of the ladies' were heard to
express themselves as wishing they
had known "all about it," SO that they
may have joined the bureau. To those
ladies a cordial invitation to become
members is extended by the homo
bureau, through it's project leader,
Mrs. j. T. More. Mrs. More, it will
be remembered, was instrumental in
securing the services of Miss Hazel
Zimmerman, government home dem
onstration agent, for the purposes of
home economics course for Ray
housewives. The course is an intense
ly interesting one, and covers the en-
tire field of home management, in con-
densed form, with particular applica-
ton toward the solution of local prob
lens.
The election following the fair on
Friday marked the first definite step
in the establishment of we'll organ
lied home bureau, designed to be of
aid to the housewife. Mrs. More as
sumed the chair of project leader;
Mrs. Grace Moorman was elected
treasurer, and Mrs. Joe Rogers will
act as secretary. An advisory COM
mittee was appointed by Mrs. More,
as follows: Mrs. w. S. Boyd, Mrs.
George Staiger, Mrs. R. V. Miller,
Mrs. H. C. Penny, Mrs Bert Bryant,
Mrs. George Hermann, Mrs. S. G..
Dolman and Mrs. H. F. Jones.

MANY BOOKS RECEIVED
BY GIRLS SOCIETY

The announcement, recently made
in Copper Camp, regarding the need
of books in the new Circulating Ii
brary of the Girls Friendly society,
met with excellent response, accord
ing to Mrs. j. T. More, who has the
society's affairs in charge.
Many new books were donated by
Rayites toward this worthy cause.
and as a result the little members
of the society have. gained not only
great deal of valuable knowledge.
but have also found pleasant recrea-
ton. Mrs. George Staiger and Mrs.
Grace Moorman, who are associated
with Mrs. More in the governing of
the society, have joined with Mrs.
More in thanking those who gener-
ously contributed.

WENCK'S MOONSH|NE
LANDS HIM IN JAIL

H. e. Wenck, who until recently
was hoist man for the Arizona Her.
cules Copper company, is in Jail at
Florence, awaiting trial for his con-
nection with a moonshine still cap

April 3rd.
His arrest followed a telephone call
in which Thurman was advised to

In the Ray Jail, Wenck admitted that
the appliances were his property, and
stated that he had moved the still the
night before, when he had found out
that someone had visited his cave.
Sheriff Henry Hall and County At
torney Richardson took Wenck into
custody. At the time of going to
press his case had not yet been tried
but it is expected that Judge Baughn
will hear it very shortly.
Wenck, who had been a Rayite for
some time past, has had a varied
career. He admits having been in the
north country, where he was intim.
ately acquainted with Rex Beach and
Jack London. He has been in Mexi-
co, and has asserted that he was also
a Royal Northwest Mounted Police
man at one time. He has also pros.
pected, and states that he had done
considerable writing.

descent into the hall below The in
truders had cut rope which they had
fastened to rafter and Nick grasped
it, putting one foot on a board. He
made the step and started to place his
foot on what he thought to be another
board, but which turned out to be the
shadow of the first board! He fell,
and the noise brought one of the men
from the ninth grade room.
"Oh! so you're interfering with an
other mans business!" said the ad-
vancing man as he approached
well, stick out your hands," and
Nick saw him draw a piece of rope
from his hip pocket. His hands were
promptly tied. Still standing, his feet
were also bound together, and hand
kerchief gag placed in his mouth. His
captor ordered him to follow, but
Nick motioned that he was not able
to, SO he was picked up bodily,
brought into the seventh grade room
and thrown into a small closet there.
Nick lay there for some time, not dar-
ing to make move.
His captor he described as a short,
thick-set man, wearing a cap, and a
handkerchief covering his face His
companion he could not describe as
he had but glimpse of him, and was
too intent upon watching the first
man.
He heard them moving about, but
lay quiet, not knowing what the fates
had in store for him. After quite
some time had elapsed, Nick turned
on his, back, lay there quietly for
some time, and then rose to his feet.
With his hands in front of him, he
was able to open the door, but he
was not able to move out.
The heat of the closet must have
resulted in unconsciousness, as Nick
was found the following morning by
his schoolmates.
The school authorities have taken
the matter under Investigation, and
are working on a clue that should
shortly result in the marauders being
apprehended and brought to justice.

BEST SHOWS YET
IS CLUBS PLAN
FOR NEXT SEASON
Order Placed with Lyceum
Bureau for Unusual At
: fractions

The Ray Con Clubs board of gov
ernors was called to special meeting
Sunday to discuss the entertainments
for the ensuing season and to decide
upon the program.
Walter Lowe of Seattle, who repre-.
sents the. Redpath Lyceum bureau S
interests, arrived that day. The clubs
governors, after a thorough discus.
sion, decided that a special program,
to consist of five numbers, instead of
four, as usual, was warranted.
Rayites will remember the Mon.
tague Opera company, who presented
their act at the club two years ago.
The club was so well pleased with
the act that a re-engagement of them
was made, and members are to be
congratulated upon their good fortune
in having secured their services. The
Woodland company, a first-class at
traction, will be one of the numbers.
The Laurant company, featuring &
musical program of the characteristic
Redpath standard of excellence, was
also engaged; the Paramount Players,
whose work with the bureau has won
considerable favorable comment, and
the Althea Players, we'll known over
the lyceum circuit, are other features
of the program.

NICK MONTGOMERY ACTS THE SLEUTH.

Nocturnal Visitors Resent His ''Watchful Waiting
They Escape, But Authorities Have Clues
to Their Identity

Nick Montgomery was beset by noe
turnal visitors at the Lincoln school
house, Monday night. securely bound
and gagged, and was found Tuesday
morning by his schoolmates.
Nick survived the incident, but still
bears markss to indicate the trying
experience he had when he essayed
to find out what two men wanted in
the building at night
Having finished with his duties at
the Richerson drug store, where he
administers to thirsty throats after
school hours, Nick went home Mon
day night. He missed his algebra,
and thought it might be down at Rich
erson's. Accordingly, he returned
searched for it, but could not find it,
so he started on his way home.
AS he was passing over the bridge
that crosses the chasm near the rear
of the schoolhouse, he saw two men
standing by the stone wall, and dis
tinctly heard their remarks: "Well,
when are we going to do it?" and
How are we going to go about it?"
This aroused his curiosity, and, after
turning the corner, he determined to
find out what the trouble was.
Peering around the side, he saw
that the pair were climbing the build
ing. He hid behind small tree, and
saw how they went up the school
house-clambering over the brick in
the angle of the building. They
raised a trap door and descend into
the building, after having first gone
all around, looking for watchers.
Nick states that he waited long
while before attempting to make the
climb, but finally decided that it was
safe to do so After several attempts,
he gained the top, carefully pausing
whenever he made any unnecessary
noise. He descended into the attic,
where he lay in wait for develop
ments. He listened carefulfy, and
thought that he heard footsteps be-
low several times. Finally, consider
ing it safe to do so, he started his

e F|SH|NG'S FINE"
EXPERTS VERDICT

The successful fishermen who COM
prised the party to Roosevelt Lake
last Friday, returned on Sunday with
catch of forty-seven fish.
George (Sunshine) Staiger used a
particularly enticing bait, as his bas-
ket contained fifteen fish at the close
of the trip.
Quite an agreeable time was had. A
dance was held at the hotel Saturday
evening, which was attended by visi-
tors who had come quite a distance to-
enjoy the day. Miss Cecile Mullen
played the violin, to the accompani-
ment of local musician at the piano,
and drummer
Early Sunday morning several mem
bers of the party heard footsteps; an
investigation disclosed the fact that
five fish had been stolen, and, though
careful search was instituted, no trace
of the purloined piscatory provisions
was found. 1t was subsequently
learned that some Roosevelt Lake ang-
lers had the disagreeable experience
of losing their entire catch through
theft, recently.
Those who comprised the party
were: Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. e. Mullen
Miss Cecile Mullen, Mr.. and Mrs. W.
B. Barham, w. w. Currens, c. F.
Schilling, Geo. Staiger, Mrs. Frank

The Long, Long Trail is particularly
adapted for saxaphone work, as the
simple melody and rich, complete
harmony may be we'll rendered with
combination of the instruments such
as was used by the "Columbians."
Tow more reading, "Is You?" and
whats the Good of Being Good" by
Miss Lucille Kemp were extremely
pleasing. Miss Crumrine's saxaphone
solo "Moanin' Saxaphone Rag" made
famous by the Brown Bros Sextette,
which was very well received, was
followed by her reading: "Scene in
Madame Newberrys Finishing School'
"a laughing skit portraying the
child-wonder, a stage-struck miss, and
a suffering devotee of the stage. AS
an encore, Miss Crumrine delighted
her audience with "Tit for Tat"
The SaXaphone Trio's rendering of
the "Smiles Medley was cordially
applauded, as was Mother, by Miss
Lucille Kemp. "Alsace Lorraine"

ing's entertainment-one that was
thoroughly enjoyed by the huge audi
ence.
The "Columbians'', whose fame had
spread before them, upon their arri
val in Florence the following day,
were asked to give their performance
at the state penitentiary, in addition TO
the one which had been scheduled at
the high school. The good people of
Florence evidently enjoyed the enter
tainments as much as Rayites. did,
because the Columbians were pressed
into service for some real dance music
the same evening.

In winding up the Clubs Redpath
season last Friday, the "Cohmbians" +,
quartette of versatile musicians, up
held the traditional high standard of
excellent maintained by the lyceum
bureau.
The quartette was composed of the
Misses Neva Crumrine, Ruth Tas-
chetta, Gladys and Lucille Kemp, and
featured saxaphones. Their program
consisting of solos, readings, instru-
mental duets, trios and quartettes and
ensemble singing, showed careful
preparation and was cordially re-
ceived.
The evening was thoroughly enjoyed
by a capacity house, every available
piece of furniture having been pressed
into service by the club management,
to provide seating facilities.
The opening number, "The Star
Spangled Banner was followed by
"Carrisima" played by the saxaphone
trio The mellow tones of the saxa-
phones delighted the audience. "Will
o. the Wisp" and "My sLaddie", sung
by Miss Taschetta, who is coratura

Busy, charming monologue, in
which was depicted the plight of a
husband whose spelling was reformed
by his better half, was Miss Crum-
rines selection. This was followed
by a Hindu Legend" as an encore.
Miss Crumrine's elocution, plainly
the result of exceptional training and
talent, was cordially received.

by Miss Gladys Kemp, was the next

Members of the bureau will be
placed upon the mailing list of the
department Of agriculture and the
University of Arizona, and will re-
ceive their bulletins, covering all fea
lures of interest to the up-to-date
housewife. The announcement was
also made that garden expert and
also poultry expert will shortly visit
Ray in the interests of the members;
they will make personal inspections
of gardens and poultry ,flocks, give
lectures and demonstrations, and aid
Rayites to secure best results from
their labors.
The work to be undertaken in May
will be principally cooking. 1t is
planned to hold demonstrations, as
heretofore, lectures, etc., and the work
will cover the practical needs of the
community in an interesting manner.
Mrs. M. K. Lockwood, state leader
of home economics, who arrived in
Ray last week for the purpose of re-
viewing the progress made by the
members, expressed her qualification
with the results obtained She was
particularly pleased with the millin-
cry work exhibited at the fair,
and expressed herself with enthusi-
asm regarding the interest shown.
Miss Hazel Zimmerman, who has been
in charge of the work, left for Tucson
on Sunday. "The success of the
course is exceeding my expectations"
stated Miss Zimmerman, "and l am
heartily pleased with the splendid co.
operation and the progressive spirit
shown by the class. Rays housewives
are not only showing a genuine inter-
est in the work, but they are also
making excellent progress, and their
kindness toward me has always
proved an inspiration to do my best"
Miss Zimmerman expects to return
to Ray within month to resume her
work.

BACK TO RANCHING
FOR HENDERSON

C. T. Henderson left Ray on Mon
day, to take charge of the Huffman
"15" ranch, near Florence.
Henderson, better known as "Char-
lie," has been a police officer for the
past ten years, but decided that he
would yield to the "call of the soil"
He was born and raised on a ranch,
and, in acquiring an interest in the
"15" ranch, he feels that his interests
will be served to better advantage.
Charlie extends a cordial invitation
to Rayites to visit him, when in his
neighborhood. He will be joined by
Mrs. Henderson just as soon as con-
ditions will have settled themselves
in their new home.

MISS k|FF LEAVES
AND YORK GR|EVES

One can but sympathize with Ray
York, who is wearing an inconsoIable
look on his face, the result of Miss
Mildred Kiff's departure for Toledo,
Ohio, on Tuesday.
Miss Kiff, who went accompanied
by her mother and Mr.. and Mrs. Percy
Kiff, during her stay in Ray has won
for herself many friends through her
charm and bearing. When the NOM
ent for departure came, she found it
difficult to go, and could not resist
the flow of tears that came.
While it has not yet been definitely
decided upon, it is understood that
Miss Kiff is to return to Ray shortly
