Some people think that farms in
own state sell for good money. What
would they think of paying $14, 400
for a farm of only 40 acres and no
stock OF farming tools. That averages
$500 an acre. Such a farm was sold
very recently in Iowa. Young men
buy your farms in Vermont.

Dear Brothcr:-
received your welcome letter

excuse me for not answering it be-
fore. 1t was like this. l would write
about page and then tear it up but

Well, jim, there has been Ettlc
change in our company. You sec VIC
have always had End Lieutenant in
charge of the company until about a
month ago. Headquarters must have
got wise and gave us a regular army
officer that holds down the rank of
Captain and Il fine man at that. .
You know | have been cooking
ever since | came ocross and now the
Captain gave me the ratings of mess
sergeant, as our mess sergeant went
home. How long | am going to hold
il | don't know, for it is no easy mat
ter, feeding two hundred and fifty
men and trying to please them all,
but as I have told the Captain I will
try anything once, so far as | am
getting along fine; no kicks coming
from the boys and | have been at it
now two months.
While I think of it, if you will get

The first step toward organizing an up to date. progressive community club for Glendale was taken last night when 50 representative business men and farmers met in the w. O. w. hall in that place and created The Glendale District Community Club. W. J. Gal braith, who represented Maricupa county in the lower house of the state legislature was elected president of the new organization, Senator c. c. Green, of the upper house, and a member of the Maricopa County Highway Com mission, vice president, and c. H. Tinker, leading banker of Glendale, treasurer.
 It was decided that all charter mem- bers of the organization are to be members of the board of directors. An executive committee to consist of six members to be appointed by the presi- dent will be announced at the next meeting, which will be held in the city hall, the night of Tuesday, October IA
 It is the aim of the club to bring the business interests of Glendale and the farming interests of that district to- gether in the club for the purpose ot benefitting the entire district. To that end, and in order that the club may have an active representative, who will always be on the lookout to aid those interested in the district. it is planned to engage the services of a community expert as secretary.
 The club has ample financial back ing. When it was first planned tt organize a community club, it wa thought s3,500 would be needed to pu it on it's feet. This amount was wei overscribed.
 In order that those who have had nc experience with a club of this nature might have an inside view of tn' workings. M. E. Bemis. of the Phoe, nix chamber of commerce, was intro duced by President Galbraith

HIGH SCHOOL
 NOTES

A big assembly will be called this morning at 9 o'clock. A treat is in store for the students. in the way of an entertainment. Professor JantZen has secured Dwight Deity, well known musician, to give a few selections on his cello. All the upper classmen re- member Mir. Deity and the many beautiful pieces he used to play at the high school, and will surely be glad to hear him once more.
 The Freshmen who entered high school this year are sure small and helpless. For example, Davy Jones, coming football star, can't dress him self after practice Davy is always the last one out of the dressing room. If it wasn't for PeeWee Brawner helping him on with his clothes he'd probably have to go home without them.
 The high school boys belonging to the Y. NJ. c. A. are going to reorganize the high school club. They will meet at the Y. NJ. c. A. next Friday evening at 6:30 o'clock. The boys will spend the greater part of the evening getting on the outside of a big feed. All high school boys, except Freshmen, are re- quested to be there.
 It's a shame the way the junior Eng fish students are being overburdened with work this year. Miss Conway has given them orders to write a theme, to be handed in, inside of two weeks Worst of all, she asks them to have a book report ready by November 10 That only gives the students five or six | n ho
 Charles Grey and Donald Martin high school boys of the junior class were voted into the Cathedral clut Sunday evening. They will probably be missed at the high school next week as they will need a few days in which to recuperate after going through tht initiation planned for them.
 A big serpentine will look great al | the game Saturday. These sort O. things win games, so every loyal Co | vote be there with bells on.

SHANNON = ROBINSON GO WILL BE ''NH|Z" SAYS COAST SPORT

This Eddie Shannon Willie Robin son bout next Friday evening will be the fastest, hard fought boxing bout ever held in this section of the coun- try So declared Eddie Cleveland. manager of Eddie Miller, a 125-pound boy who appears in Hayden the middle of this month.
 q witnessed the first meeting be- tween this pair in Oakland, and it was the greatest four-round bout ever staged there,' Cleveland continued. Talk about boxing bouts, those two boys done more boxing in those four rounds than the average performers do in 50.
 When it comes to a good match, l don't know of any two boxers in the country who would be better match than Shannon and Robinson. And they are whirlwind performers, too. They put up just the kind of a bout that fans crave for; those biff- bang affairs that keep the spectators on their toes from start to finish.
 "There1l be plenty of excitement when they exchange wallops Friday evening, you can bet on that. There's also likely to be couple of knock downs, for they are both pretty hart hitters. I know. because I've had boy: under my wings who have met them Yes, they were both beaten, but it ism so hard to suffer defeat at the hand: of boys of this calibre.
 shannon and Robinson are recog nized as two of the toughest boys O their weight on the coast, and Oak land promoters have long been en deavoring to match them. I'll be a the ringside when they clash F'rida, night. you can bet on that" he con i cluded.

Community Club Organized at
 Glendale With Fifty Members

Bemis should not expect it's secretary to do all the work, but should back him up in every move he may make.
 MT. Bemis spoke of the work of the Phoenix chamber of commerce, ana said that although it had not sue ceeded in obtaining a main line rail- road as yet, nor had it located any large factories in the city. it was de- voting practically all of it's efforts to the development of the country, mak- ing it land of homes. The Phoenix organization does not advertise very much according to MT. Bemis, but it reaches the individual through per sonal letters, over 4000 of which are sent out every year. Among other things the chamber of commerce was a clearing house for all war work. Many problems will come before the Glendale club. according to Bemis, even as they do in Phoenix, where it is simple matter to count on doing most anything from telling some one just what time it is to Investigating fair prices.
 Following MT. Bemis talk, the newly elected president. made a short speech
 in which he stated that the main problems of Glendale, were transport | ation, housing and the reviving of the l dairy industry. Senator Green made a short talk on good roads, especially placing emphasis upon the necessity for paving the Glendale. Grand avenue | road. He also stated that it was his
 opinion that a cement plant in the
 valley, no matter who operated it would pay.
 l Judge Gilbert of the Water Users | association spoke on the problems
 which the new club could help that
 association solve. Each of the three
 last speakers stated that in their re-
 spective public offices they had fel | the need of an organization like the | Glendale District Community Club, tt
 which they could go for reference ! It was planned to secure the services
 of a secretary as soon as possible, anC
 open up adequate rooms in which tt house the activities of the new organ. | ization
