RENEWED INTEREST.
IN LUNCHEON CLUB
IS SHOW n
Full Tables At Fridays Meeting; Club
Hears An Interesting Address by
Mr.. Norman Carmichael on
Copper.

The Clifton Luncheon Club assem-
bled Friday noon in the rooms of the
Y. M. C. A. The attendance was un-
usually large, there being reported 81
present 1t is evident that the club
is starting the new year with new
' life and that the scope of it's activities
and interests will widen with the
passing months.
The club. was called to order by the
chairman, E. H. Green, after which
the Rev. C. H Love offered the bless
ing AS for the luncheon itself. it was
good in quality and ample in quantity
for a luncheon. A luncheon club,
whatever the implication of the term,
does not have fer it's purpose, primar-
lily. to eat but to think-to exchange
and Interchange ideas-to bring the
citizens of a community together in
spirit of concord and cooperation
to stimulate interest in community
welfare and to coordinate community
effort. The Clifton Luncheon Club
is doing this and it will more and
more become factor in Clifton's well
fare and improvement and in the
promotion of good feeling among it's
citizens
The program was exceptionally
( good. The solo by Miss Eckert ana
the reading by Miss Williams were
heartily appreciated by the members
of the club.
The chief feature of the program
as previously announced in notices
sent to the MEMBERSHIPS the address
by Mr.. Norman Carmicael. general
manager of the Arizona Copper Com
pany. Mr.. Carmichael had as his
subject, Copper, and there are very
few men who are as well-if as well
Qualified to speak on the red metal
as he. Space scarcely permits even
q brief reference to the salient facts
of his ad lress. He spoke of the an
tiluity of the copper industry-of its
utility as compared with iron-of an.
cient methods of mining and reduc.
tion-if its alloys-its forms and com.
!, binations-of it's accommodating char
acter or properties-its part in the
advance of civilization-all of these
and more in Illuminating detail. Last
ly, coming to the present, touching
, on the production and consumption
of copper, he sounded, as he said
/. a note of moderate encouragement fol
;. the industry. He believes that with
e the advent of peace and normal condi
i tions prevailing in the world that the
v industry will receive a new impetus
S through widened demand, as in
l. China and Russia, which countries
! have hitherto been small users of cop
e per- The club is under obligation tt
e Mr.. Carmichael for his we'll prepared
e and thoughtful address.

with DR.. Lockwood of the University,
in reference to arranging for a series

of the University. These lectures,
to be given one a week, are as fol-
lows: DR.. Won Klinesmidt, Criminal
Psychology; Dean Butler, Wonders

'Shakesperian Tragedy and one 9th
er lecture on Birds of Arizona" name

It was decided that the most pro-
pItious time to have these lectures
would be on Friday night. Then, in
order to create interest and to stimu-
late attendance to the end that the
largest possible number of people re-
ceive the benefit of these lectures,
various committees were appointed,
the town being districted, SO that one
of the communities, the publicity COM
mittee, could work to the best advan-
tage.
The date of the first lecture will
be announced later.
The following are the members of
the publicity committee and the parts

AN APPEAL FOR
EARTHQUAKE SUFFERERS

An appeal is made through the ALI
anza Hispano-Americana of Clifton Tor
aid to the sufferers in the recent eartn
ouakes in the states of Vera Cruz ana
Puebla Mexico The Era is glad %
give publicity to this appear and II
suggests that some organized effort
be made among the American popu-
Iation of the town for the unfortunate
victims. The need is far greater
than we imagine. Ell Paso and otner
towns along the border have taken
this matter in hand and much needed
assistance has been given. Immediate
action should be taken-suffering and
starvation do not wait. All money
raised is forwarded to the Red Cross
in Mexico City. Will you not open
your heart and your purse to this
pressing and pathetic appeal for the
starving and the destitute?

BASKET BALL TEAM
SCORES ANOTHER
VICTORY
In An Exciting Game With the Clifton
High the GiIa Academy Team
Goes Down to Defeat. Semes-
ter Examinations in Progress

On Friday evening, the Clifton High
School basket ball team scored anoth-
er victory. Gila Academy was the
unlucky team. Both teams played a
clean, fast game and the score was
very close until about the middle of
the last half. At this time one of
the Clifton forwards awoke- to the
fact that he was playing basketball
ant scored few points.
The forwards for Gila played to-
gether and kept our guards pretty
busy. The Clifton forwards played
a different game than ever before:
the first half, one shot the baskets
and the last half, the other did the
shooting.
The two centers were about the
same size, weight and equally speedy
so this made the game more exciting.
When the ball went up in center no
one knew which center would hit it.
After the game. one of the Gila
/ boys made the statement that the
! Clifton guards were just like a board
fence because it was seldom that the
oall ever went past them.
| Following the game, little feed
was given in the Domestic Science
room for the two teams. After the
'eats" the teams went up stairs where
a High School dance was being given
The school extends their thanks tc
