WILLIAMS DEFEATS ASH
 FORK IN SUNDAY GAME,

Williams beat Ash Fork on inc latter's grounds last Sunday making 16 hits and 22 runs off Pritchard, their crack pitcher, while Conway held Ash Fork to ' hits and five runs. The local team outfielded, outbatted and generally outp1ayed the Ash Fork aggregation, and the score properly indicates the diff ference in the strength of the two teams as they lined up last Sunday. s

NEW BILL WILLIAMS
 TRAIL NOW OPEN

For a number of years the local Forest Office has been looking for better location for a trail up Bill Williams noun tain. They have been seeking one that would permit of a trail to be opened earlier and closed later than the old trail, and that would cost less for upkeep. Af- ter giving the matter con- siderable study, and weighing the possibilities offered on each of the more exposed slopes of the mountain, a trail branching from the Coleman Lake road was settled upon. This has now been cleared and is open to travel.
 The old trail is still blocked by huge banks of snow that can not be crossed by man or horse. and present indications are that this condition will continue sev- eral weeks. In addition to this the trail Is washed out in a number of places and will be almost impossible after the snow is gone. >
 The new trail, on the other hand, has been open for a num- Der of days and is in daily use by the forest lookout already stationed at the top. This trail is washed out in but one place and that is soon tobe repaired. The grade of the new trail is much less than that of the old, the steepest incline being ap. proximately, 12 degrees or less than half that of some points in the old trail. This is one of the greatest advantages possessed by the new route.
 To get to the new trail it is necessary to drive out on the Coleman Lake road as far as H. l.. Benham's ranch. The road which branches to his home stead also leads to the foot of the trail. The point where this road leaves the Coleman Lake road, is marked by a sign and another sign marks the point where the trail leaves the branch road. The trail passes thru a pasture which necessi- tates two gates, but these arc in good condition and easily opened and closed
 CAUTION: Persons going up on the mountain should carry their drinking water with them.
 The distance up the mountain by the new trail is four and one quarter miles, measuring from the point where the trail leaves the Coleman lake road up to the lookout on the mountain top.

APPLAUD PASTOR WHO
URGES REGISTRATION

Rev. George Williams, pastor of
McCabe M. E. Church, Whining
ton, was somewhat surprised on
Sunday evening when his remarks
asserting the duty of women to
vote were interrupted by applause.
In the course Of his sermon he
pointed out the duty of all citizens
to assume an unprejudiced atti-
tude toward the vital problems of
the day.
Referring to the book of Exodus
1926, he called attention to the
story of Moses calling to the
Children of Isreal to stand out if
they loved Christ, and said it was
like duty of the women of this
land to stand for righteousness.
Asserting that the element fav-
oring lower standars of righteous
ness, such as vice, rum, crooked
ness in politics, would not fail to
vote, DR.. Williams said it was
necessary for the decent women of
the country to get out and vote,
and counterbalance the unscrupu-
lous women voters.

OUR MOMENTS

Ii we could save our moments,
store them deep
n cellars of the mind to choose at
will,
not as the dream that browns into
sleep,
But as the taste of wine, laid
cool and still;
Gould groping fingers hold the
grains of ore
And set the scattered jewels in a
crown,
Comb out the beach of time and
from the shore
Net all the tangled treasure float
ing down.
Then living so with heaven at our
hand
We'd fly at death, like laden bees,
to bear
That heaven captive to the heaven
there!
Longer than any bronze these
would abide,
These, that are now as writing on
the sand
Beneath the wave of each oncom-
ing tide.

FALL FLOWING TO CON-
TROL INSECT PEST

Fall blowing is the most uni
versally effective way of control
ling the insect pests that annually
cause great losses to the grain
farmer. 1t is much eaiser and
cheaper, says the Bureau of Ento
mology, United States Department
of Agriculture, to prevent an in
sect outbreak in this manner than
it is to stamp out the infestation
once it is fully developed. The
Hessian fly, so destructive to
wheat, is one of the insects that
can hardly be eradicated once it
is established in the crop. Fall
plowing is recommended because
it breaks up the soil and destroys
the grubs and pupae of many in
sects by exposing them to the sun
and air.
Farmers Bulletin S35, prepared
by the Bureau of Entomology,
tells how to control the most com
mon and dangerous of the grain
farmers insect enemies. 1t gives
