Farm for the propagation of Game.
This Department expects to raise
a considerable amount of Game on
the Game Farm during the season
of 1920, however, the results of
1921 should show considerable in
crease over 1920, which is the first
season. We have constructed hold
ing and breeding pens, and have
some brood stock on hand for this
seasons propagation.
The property was acquired at a
very reasonable figure, for the Com
mission was offered 10 per cent ad-
vance of the purchase price within
thirty days after the purchase, by
a real estate broker of this State.
The Department has kept in close
touch with the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, and Game brokers
throughout this Country and Mexico,
and has secured all game birds posi-
Bile. After careful investigation
end experience relating to the i'm
portance of Game, we decided that
the Game Farm was the only de-
pendable way to increase the supply
OF Game for the sportsmen of the
State.
The Department through the
press and cooperation of the public
has taken good care of the Game
throughout the State during the
severe winter months by feeding
same whenever found, and Offering
to pay for feed when same was not
furnished gratis. Reports from all
sections Of the State. show there is
a bountiful supply of game left in

Lynx Liked Lights of Town

A large Lynx that apparent ly loved the sight of the bright lights of Williams, came to his sad end one day this week. Merton Hickox, of Herkimer, N. Y., who is visiting P. $. Ron an, and expects to remain for the winter, was the cause of the big cats sudden demise. MT. Hicock took a little stroll up the Saginaw canyon one day with his gun over his shoulder for company.

Mumps Have Run Course

The epidemic of humps which
 The epidemic of humps that has been interfering somewhat with school attendance during the last two months, has now about run it's course. Prof Cur eton states that in many rooms of the school, approximately 90 percent of the pupils have now had the humps and of the re- mainder apparently the greater part are immune to the ai1ment, since they have been repeated ly exposed without taking the humps. At no time during g the epidemic did the attendance fall low enough to prevent ef- ficient work being done by the various classes. Most of the pupils who had the humps were out of school for from two or three days to week and they have all quickly caut up with their classes.

WHAT CHRISTMAS FOR
 ARMENIAN ORPHANS? |?

While Arizona, we'll clothed
 and we'll fed, is enjoying the
 Holiday season, the officials of the Near East Relief are re- minding the people of the un- happy condition of more that 1000 orphans under Ameri- can care half way around the world, dependent upon the gen. erosity of those more fortunate for the bafe necessities of life
 For $5, which would hardly provide a meal on some tables in this country, a homeless, fla therless child in Armenia can be fed for month, while $15 will feed, clothe and educate one of the little wards for that length of time, and it is to keep this work going through the present winter that collections are now being made.
 If all of the refugee children cared for by the Near East Re lief were seated at one table ii would be 24 miles long, and new contributions are needed continually to fill that long line of plates. Winter is adding to the distress in Armenia ar( Syria, and the long table will become more and more crowd ed as winter weather grows colder.
 Although the Assembly of the League of Nations is now working on some plan to relieve the political and economic con- dition of Armenia, it will b. long before any reoreanization can help the individual rafr1-. gees, and those in charge of the Near East Relief point out that tens of thousands of children now being fed. and clothed bv contribution will f properly educated, in time be- come substs ntial citizens of the new Armenian Republic.

SHERIFF CAMPBELL
 FAVORS NIGHT MARSHAL

w. A. Campbell, county sher
 tiff, met with the Town Counci
 of Williams Tuesday night ano
 discussed with the council the
 placing of a night marshal 1T
 Williams. The council was strongly in favor of night man for Williams and the sher. if assured them that he would do all he could to arrange to have a night man for the town
 The sheriff proposes to ar range either with the constable elect or with the Williams deputy sheriff to be appointed January 1st., to have this of ficer deputized as town marsh al as we'll as deputy sheriff, and to police the business district of the town each night. The new board of supervisors have already expressed themselves as favorable to this plan and it is taken as practically assured that such an arrangement will be made.
 The taxpayers of Williams will be pleased to hear that the town is to have a night man. It is generally felt that there will be especially great need of night policing during the next year or so, because it Is antici- pated that there will be great many unemployed and dissati- Gn6 flo oh hoI1H fhn country many of whom will not be above burglary. To meet this situation a night man will be needed even more than day men.
 Another thing winch Sheriff Campbell is working for is closer cooperation between town marshals in the county and the Sheriff's office. It is his opinion that the town and county officers should work in close harmony, and ne is work ing to attain that end, both in Williams and in Flagstaff. He is receiving hearty encourage ment from all sides in this move also.
 Efficient policing such as Sheriff Campbell is undertak- ing will prevent many robberies and in this way will easily save the taxpayers of the county many times the cost of the sher- ifs office and will also make the lives of citizens more secure

NIGHT SCHOOL IS
 PROVING POPULAR

A night school has been orga anized in Williams by the board and faculty of the Will Hams Public School, and is proving very popular. Thirty five Mexicans and others have enrolled so far. Attendance is regular and deep interest is taken in the work.
 The first and third readers and arithmetic are being taught and those enrolled range in ages from 16 to 40 years of age. The first reader is taught by E.. A. Mendoza and, are eagerly learning to read and speak En- glish. Miss M. E. Gordon has the third grade with eight en- rolled. Two girls who quit school to go to work are taking arithmetic. under Miss Ritzen- thaler.
 The importance of the work which this night school is doing can hardly be overestimated as this is one of the very essen tial things in Americanizing foreigners who have come to this country to make their home and also to broaden the under standing of those of longer res idence here.
