That the st. Patrick's night dance
Will be the biggest event of it's kind
ever enjoyed in Ely is forecast by
the joy prophets" Even the old
men who have not attended a dance
since hay burners were the only mo-
tive power to transport couples 70
and from the dances are brushing
up their best clothes and practicing
dance steps in the kitchen while the
youth and maiden population of the
entire county are dolling up as never
before to claim the popularity due
them.
Costumes galore of all nations will
be worn By the ladies' and many of
the men. Uncle Sans boys are busy
preparing their uniforms for inspec-
tion, not for the keen eyes of an Of
ficer but for the caressing gaze OF
the ladies'. Sailors will be In the mi
nority. but as the local representa-
tives of the navy are a handsome lot
of salts" the space on their pro-
grams is likely to be at premium.
Most Of the boys have travelled
around this little odd world quite a
bit in the last years and it is likely
that there will be some surprise
stunts introduced which will add to
the pleasure of the evening

PRESIDENT WILSON SAYS LEAGUE
Of NATIONS WILL Be INTEGRAL
PART OF THE TREATY OF PEACE
Americans Concur in View
that Decision Is Irrevoca-
BILE and Will Govern Any
Pact with Germany
Especial to the News)

PARIS, March 15.-President Will
son today effectively told the mem
bers of the peace conference that the
discussion in the United States as to
whether the League of Nations would
be an integral part of the peace treaty
preliminary or otherwise, to which
the Germans put ther sigJltures.
would be settled to mean that it
would.
In fact the president flatly said it
would and that his statement was is
sued in behalf of the American Peace
delegation; he made it plain that
America never had considered the
proposition of divorcing the league
provisions from the peace pact
The attitude OF the American dele
cation was outlined later to the cor
respondents which was that the pro-
gram of the first session of the peace
conference provided that upon being
drafted the Constitution of the
league should be an integral part of
any peace treaty. Finality was given
to this which met with the approval
of the entire conference.
II Is held by the Americans that
the decision Is irrevocable and that
the outstanding feature of any pact
with Germany Will be the League.

WE WILL BE PLEASED TO SUBMIT THESE LET TIERS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND INVESTIGATION.

OUR PLAN

We are subdividing this Ranch into 10aere tracts, and we are preparing it especially to plant to Fhompson's Seedless Grapes. We grow and care for these graes for a term of years. We deliver each tract in a producing condition. wired, posted and pFgned. We furnish water for all purposes while in our care and provide you with the same thereafter. We propose to sell you each tract on the small pay ment plan, 10 per cent down, - per month for term of months. when 50 per cent is paid. and the remaining 50 per cent in two equal annual payments, thus giving you a chance to pay at least one-half of the entire purchase price from the crops.
 WHERE CAN YOU FIND A SAFER and easier plan to secure a tract of land in producing condition, with so little money involved and so large re- turns, and takes so little effort to ae= quire, and only about three and half months of your time? Besides, it gives you an opportunity to save each month and gives you. in a few yeaEH an inde- pendent income and a home for life.
 You cannot lose. Your title is guar anteed by the Final Bank & Trust Company of Florence, Arizona, who is trustee for this company and to whom you make your payments direct and receive youEs deed when you have complied with your part of the agree ment.
 We court strict investigation and defy anyone to point to anything that does not comply with the laws of the state. and every purchaser is at liberty to inspect at all times the progress made. or they can delegate whom they choose to report at any or all times the operation of the company.
