1919 Arizona State Fair

The 1919 session of the Arizo- na state fair, which, it has been announced, will begin on Monday, Nov. 3, and continue throughout the entire week, is to be the big gest and most attractive state wide exposition which the fair commission has ever undertaken and, toward that end, plans are being made to create a more gen. eral interest in the big amuse- ment and educational event in all parts of the state.
 Owing to the fact that the fair of 1918 had to be called off be- cause of prevalence of the en- fiuenza last fall, it is believed that a larger sum of money will be in the hands of the fair promoters this year and that a correspond ingly better program of sports and displays can be provided. The fair commission this year consists of c. K. Pishon, chair man; H. A. Clark of Douglas, member; J. B. Ryland of Tucson,  treasurer and Charles Price of Mesa, secretary,
 The days are dedicated as fol lows:
 Monday, Nov. 3-Opening day. Tuesday, Nov. All States day. Wednesday, Nov. 5-Indian day. Thursday, Nov. 6-Army, Marine
 and Navy day.
 Friday. Nov. 7-Livestock day. Saturday, Nov. 8-Automobile
 day.
 The commission is working on the program for these various dates, details of which will be an- nOunced later.

Indians Did Their Part In War

The American Nation can and no doubt does feel proud when it considers the war record of the Indians of America, both in buy ing bonds and in military service.
 The Indian has fought under the Stars and Stripes in every war America has engaged in. During the great World War more than 5000 of them were in military service.
 The Indians on reservations who were ineligible for enlistment or draft saw the Governments S financial needs in all the opera tions of warfare. In 1917 when the first Liberty Bonds were is- sued their subscriptions amounted to $4,6O7, $50. Subscriptions to the second issued were $4, 392, 750 and to the third $4, 362, 300.
 The above is a record to be proud of, but when the fourth loan was called for the amount was raised to S15, 100000 a per capita of $50 for every man wo- man and child in the Indian race.

Our Welcome to Our Men.

Transports from overseas are entering our seaports and lying at their docks. and every day dis embarking crowd of our boys in khaki. These young men will soon be at their homes, and the question is, How shall we vel come them?
 With bands and parades meet ing at the town hall, if you will. These demonstrations of welcome are proper and fitting. But what our young men will presently need is employment.
 Every mans old job should be open to him wherever possible. But as the regiments pour back, there may be more work still needed to fill the needs of the men.
 Each village and town and city should take stock of it's require ments, both immediate and poten- tial, and use every means of in- stituting them at once. If any public buildings are needed, now is the time to inaugurate it. The good roads question is always with us. Manufacturing of some local raw material into a finished product may possibly be under taken.
 Initiative in these directions will be the truest welcome to our men.
 Let us in St. Johns be in the front in undertaking any new project to supply the additional which will he needed.

Getting Rid of Colds.

The easiest and quickest way to get a rid of a cold is to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This preparation has been in use for many years and its value full ly proven. No matter what rem edy you use, however, care must
 be taken not to contract a second cold before you have recovered from the first one, and there is serious danger of this. A man of middle age or older should go to bed and stay in bed until fully recovered. It is better to stay in bed three days at the start than three weeks later on. Adv.

More than 40, ,OOO claims aggregating $250,- 0O0,00 have been filed with the commission by both Mexicans and foreigners covering the whole period of the revolution, dating from the uprising in Cananea, Sonora, about ten years ago.
 It is probable that congress of Mexico will also be called upon to take action on the demands of the oil men for less drastic law cov- ering the production and sale of oil in the republic. At the pres ent time the laws of Mexico cov- ering the oil fields amounts to practical confscatiOn.

From Round Valley

If you don't know anything worth saying, keep your mouth shut.
 If you know anything really worth while, tell your neighbors.
 I believe I know a good thing when 1 see it.
 Round Valley has a new indus try that very few know about and one that all should know about.
 The firm name under which it is doing business is ''The White Mountain Marvel Milling Co.,"
 MT. Grissom the promoter and three gentlemen by the name of Wiltbank, uncle, father and son have formed a co-partnership to make the best four possible out of home grown wheat.
 Nothing succeeds like success.
 They are succeeding with big capital s.
 The word Marvel" in the firm name is we'll put, as this little mill is doing a marvellous work and doing 1t marvelously well.
 The little engine with it's chuck chuck. chuck chuck goes merrily on "A hours with every turn of sun.
 Mir. Grissom, the urbane gen tleman in charge take pleasure showing the visitor how this lit tie marvel of a mill converts the wheat berries into pancakes-no hardly that-but into four that makes pancakes melt in your mouth, biscuits that don't need butter and honey to make 'em go down and light bread that will make your Grandmother turn over in her grave with envy.
 There is a string of teams com ing with wheat and going with flour continuously.
 This end of Apache County has evidently "come alive" as wheat has been rolling into this mill for weeks and the end is not yet.
 The housewives of Edgar and the business men of Round Val ley as we'll are all more than pleased with the product of this mill. It's success is assured and it is real boon to this commun- ity.
 Every member of the firm de- serves a kindly pa t upon the back and the writer of this article took this means. of extending his "pat.
 But there is a higher endorse ment than we neighbors can give.
 The man who knows and feels that he is doing something really worth while, that he is creating something of practical use, of ac- tual need, can not help but feel thetouch of the Higher-Hand that lends it's approval to all construc- tive labor.
 Which shall it be? Biscuit or Cannon? Pancakes or Sharpnell? Ginger bread or Poison Gas?
 When the labor of thls old world becomes wholly construc- tive and not destructive, we will have just begun to learn to live. The man or men who do some thing for the public good are pub lie benefactors. And every en- terprise of a constructive char acter will be welcomed and en- outraged in this community.
 Wye le Marvel Mill.
