HUTTON HOUSE TO
 OPEN BY DEC. 10.

J. s. Button states that ne expects to have the Button House, onSecond Street, which has been under constructor for some time, open for business by the 10th of December. MT. and Mrs. Button are now moV- ing into the house to live and the furniture for the eight up- stairs rooms is being installed. For comfort and convenience, there will be nothing in Will Hams, outside of the Fray Mar cos, to compare with this mod ern rooming house. Each room is supplied with hot and cold running water, and each room is steam heated. There are tive baths in the upstairs, one for men and one for women. All rooms open onto a central hall which communicates direct ly with both the back and front entrances.
 The walls of the building are constructed of cement blocks which make it a substantial as we'll as an attractive building. The interior is plastered thru out. The rooms are so arrang- eb they may be convenently used either singly or in suites. While providing himself with a profitable investment in this modern hotel, Mir. Button is also conferring a great benefit to the town by providing it with a thoroughly mobern rooming nol SC that will prove strong dra wing card for the town.

MORE STORAGE ROOM
 FOR STANDARD OIL

The local distributing station of the Standard Oil Company experienced some difficulty in supplying the rapid y increas- ing demand for gasoline, on a number of occasions last sum- mer. While at no time did an actual famine exist, yet on a number of occasions, due to the delay of cars of oil in transit the supply ran so low that it became necessary to limit the amount to be sold to one person. To provide against the recur- renee of such a condition and also in order to prepare for a larger consumption in the fu- ture, two additional 10000 gal lon tanks are now being install ed at the local distributing sta ton.
 These two tanks are of the upright variety and will be erected just south of the two tanks which have been in use for the past few years. The additional tanks and one of the old ones will be used to store gasoline giving a total storage capacity of 6O,OOO gallons. The other tank will be used, as formerly, for the storage of kerosene.
 Should the tourist traffic in- crease during the next several years as it has during the past few. even this large storage ca pacity will again prove made quate.

Thot They Had Found An Indian Grave

When Henry Redwine and
 Tom Shultas began work dig ging the large silo for Bill Ma giller, early this fall, they ran onto metate and pile of charcoal, a few feet under the surface of the ground. which they at first thot probably in dicated an Indian grave. They theorized that the large stone metate and the pile of charcoal might indicate the grave of an Indian woman, her grinding store and her camp fire having been inferred with her. that she might have them to use when she reached her happy hunting ground. After the silO was completed the men dug farther about the place where the metate had been found. Cold reality quickly dissipated the glowing theory of an Indian grave. Another metate was un- earthed, but that was all.

AIRPLANE STATION TO
 BE NEAR GRAND CANYON

When Superintendent Ma ther of the National Park Serv- ice was in Williams a few weeks ago, he received a telegram de- livered to him here, stating that the War Department world be glad to cooperate in every way possible in the esta blishmen of an airplane station at Grand Canyon. MT. Mather hopes tc- secure the service of a large passenger to carry several per sons at a time across the Can yon to the north rim and also down into the Canyon. While the feat will be little difficult to accomplish because of the high elevation. yet it appears that station is soon to be es- tablihed near the Canyon and the passenger plane will un- doubtedly follow, if feasible.
 It will be recalled that an Army plane made a flight over the Canyon a few weeks ago, without mishap. The plane left Kingman,- sailed over the Can yon and returned again to King man.
 The local Forest office ha1 been called upon to pick a suit able location for such a station Supervisor Scott has recom- mended a location several miles this side of the Canyon, near Rain Tanks.
 1t is anticipated that defi- mite progress toward the estab- 1ishment of this station will be made next spring.

PREDICTS LOW PRICES
 ON COMMODITIES

MT. G. H. Spellmire, of Bab- bitts-Polson Company, when in- terviewed one day this week, as to the price outlook for the near future, replied that the tend ednobpeA, ,aaiacykmfwypmfwt ency the coutry over is decid-. edly downward on food stuffG and clothing and that the same is true a little less markedly on practically all commodities.
 He cited sugar as an example the latest tlegraphic advices quoting the New York price at slightly over five cents for raw sugar. The refinery charge i1 approximately four cents. thus placing sugar on the retail mar. ket there at near eleven cents.
 There is practically no buy ing done anywhere. Dealera refuse to buy on the falling market and as a consequence factories are unable to dispose of their products and are clos ing down. Many of the larger houses are laying off salesmen, awaiting a steadying of the market and a revival of buying
 @We expect to be back to pre- war phice on practically ever thing, shortly after the first of the year." MT. Spellmire con- and in a few cases, due to overproduction or curtail- ment of our export trade prices may go a little below the pre-war level"

 SCHOOL THRIVING.

OF MUMPS
 GESTURES SCHOOL s

An epidemic of humps has
 beent cutting, school attendance and greatly inconveniencing the inhabitants of Williams for the past few weeks. From present indications the epidemic will not be stopped until every pu- pill in school and every adult in town not immune to the disease has had a turn with it. In ad d. dition to large number of pu- pills being out of school each week. because of the humps, several of the teachers have been afflicted and a number of adults have been quite severely i'll with the malady.
 One peculiarity about this particular outbreak is an ab- sence, in large percent of th1 cases, of the customary swelling in the cheeks. In many cases the glands in the neck alone. have been affected. Due to this mode of attack, the was not recognized ir many instances until medical aid has been called, and for this reason the epidemic spread very rapidly. While the di sease has not been fatal in any 1 case, it has caused a deal of l pain and inconvenience.

U. of A. BIG ATTENDANCE

The University of Arizona has experienced a rapid growth during the last few years. The attendance for the year 1919-2O was 92 per cent greater than that for 1917-1S. The total enrolment for 1919-2O was 1856. This places the Arizona university but little below many of the more populous states of the middle west. This sudden increase in attendance has thrown a great burden up- on the faculty and the facilitie5 of the University. Greater support for the school will be required in order to keep pace with the growing attendance

Motorists and good roads makers! There's something
 synonymous in their consid- eration for the admirer of the great outdoors.
 If the automobile tourist will draw rough circle on a coast to-coast map thru the westerly third of the United States, and consider any one of a dozen transcontinental trails South and Middle west, he will. mentally describe master key to the peoples playgrounds of America.
 That's what 15O delegates from eleven western states did in the first annual convention of the National Park-to-Park High way Association, recently, in Denver. They shaped the scen' ic pass key to fit the arboreal lock which the National Park Service and the American Auto- mobile association, in Washinp, ton, have fashioned in order to release millions of workers from everyday cares for jour. ney to their own national park plavgrounds.
 Congress. will be asked thiJ winter to turn the magic scenic key by appropriating funds for the permanent improvement of this 5000 mile motor way. which depends upon the many transc continental and other hioh ways for stimulation and seeks harmonious cooperation for CO., ordinate development of good roads generally.
