 SCHOOL NEWS NOTES

The High School is very much pleased at the reception given the Senior Class Play on Saturday night by the people of Oatman. The class played to a packed house in the Des- ert Inn Theater and there was not a single marring feature to the whole performance. The High School or chestra, of eight pieces accompanied the class and delighted the audience with their music.
 The remainder of the evening was spent by the Kingman players as guests of the Theater. A dance fol- lowed the program.
 The New Year issue of the Hi Skule Kidder was issued this week under the auspices of the Senior Class. The number was exceptionally good.
 Today the High School Basketball team goes to Valentine to play the Indian School at Truxton Canyon.

.F|NDS. FOREIGN TRADE
 MAKES FURNITURE SHORTAGE

Harry Smith. returned this week from an eastern trip to purchase fur niture for the Central Commercial Company.
 MT. Smith says that it is not labor trouble that is making the scarcity of manufactured articles-at least in the furniture line-but it is the great export trade. He visited the factory of the Simmons Mfg. Co.,, at Kenosha and his attention was attracted to some massive beds that were being made which would cost perhaps three or four times the price of those used by the American public. Upon in- quiry it was found that these beds were all contracted for and going to Japan for some of the new Japanese millionaires, presumably. It was the same with other things. Large con- tracts were being filled for South America, Central America, Japan and China and inasmuch as the manufac- turers can get almost any price they want in these countries, their orders are receiving first attention. Hence the scarcity of articles in this country.

FRENCH SOUVENIR
BOOKLETS REACH
RECRUIT BRANCH

The French government, IN an en-
deavor to show it's appreciation of the
work done by our men who went over
seas and fought to uphold the spirit
of democracy, has printed memorial
pamphlet as souvenir to be present
ed to each American soldier who was
in France. 1t was intended that these
pamphlets should be distributed to
the members of the A. E. F. before
they left France but owing to delays
in production this arrangement was
not possible. However, the French
government still being anxious to
thank these worthy men for their
services, has asked that the war de-
, partment make every effort to dis
tribute the memorials to those who
have returned to civil life and are en-
titled to them. With that end in view
the war department decided to use
the recruiting service as a means of
distribution and each armyrecruiting
station has been authorized to dis
tribute these pamphlets to those men
who have been overseas and are en-
titled to them.
1t is hoped that all these men will
call at the local army recruiting sta
tion and show their papers as socn as
possible SO that the pamphlets can
| be distributed without any further
delay.
