CITY ELECTION NEXT MONDAY.

The city election will be held next
Monday for the election of the entire
city council of seven members, There
are fourteen aspirants for the office
most of whom would make excellent
councilmen and would conduct the
city business in an efficient and busi-
nesslike manner. Everything is very
quiet at present but we have heard
rumors that lead us to believe that
we may yet have spirited race and
a hard fight put up before election
day.
You do not have to be registered
to vote at this election as every one
who is qualified to vote can do so and
if not registered can swear their
vote in at the polls. We are also in
formed that some Of the registration
officers will be at the polls to regis
ter any one who has failed to regis
ter.

BISHOPS OF METHODIST CHURCH
ON WORLD PEACE.

paragraph from the Episcopal Ad-
dress read before the General Con
ference at Des Moines, Iowa, May 2
1870, by Bishop William Fraser Nc
Dowell and enthusiastically indorsed
by the Conference)
What is our chief business at this
Conference with reference to the
new internationalism Surely we
must take strong sounds against anv
more wars and against war itself as a
method of settling difficulties. Sure
ly we must commit our Church to the
principle that international troubles
shall be adjusted by counsel and ar
oitratlon. and not by guns and
slaughter of men; that the nations of
the world shall be bound together by
working Covenant of Peace; that
however it shall be brought about.
such compromise should be made be-
tween the President of the United
States on one hand and the Senate
OF the United States on the other. as
shall secure real and effective Lea
que OF Nations in which the Nnited
States shall have a proper and honor
able place among the nations of the
world in preserving the peace and
bearing the burdens of the world.
that narrow nationalism shall not
set itself against world unity and
true internationalism; that we shall
unite with the Churches and all
countries that are even now seeking
to promote international friendship
and good will; that weak nations shall
not be the prey and victims of strong
er ones; that all nations shall reduce
and armies. baAtleships
and navies to a minimum consistent
with safety. and that the vast ex-
penditures for fighting purposes shalt
be used for educational, industrial
and domestic welfare instead.

SEVENTH ANNUAL COMMENCE
MENT OF HIGH SCHOOL.

MENT OF HIGH SCHOOL.
Last week marked the closing of tn
Schools for the summer vacation ant
the seventh annual commencement o
the High School,
The exercises of the week were III
to their usual standard which is abcu
all that can be said as that means
that they were as good as they could
possibly have been and better than
most anywhere else in Arizona
There are few towns in the country
that make as much out of the closing
of their schools as Winslow. and il
is one of the things that makes Win
slow good town in which to live.
The, classes were larger than ever
before. Sixteen young people. five
boys and eleven girls graduated from
the High School which is one larger
than the class of two years ago.
There were forty-nine graduates
from the Junior High School, The
largest class heretofore was thirty
four All forty-nine of these people
have enrolled for the high school next
year and should make themselves felt
when they get there next fall.
Mr.. l.. B. Moore, formerly of Win
slow and now Episcopal Rector at
Flagstaff, gave an address to the
Junior High School graduates and
his pleasing and inspiring talk made
his audience wish they were again
young so that they might follow his
advice and make place for them
selves in the world
hThe Baccalaureate sermon was
preached by Rev. e, l.. Barclay and
was enjoyed by one of the largest
audiences of the week. 1t was a
wholesome talk and one which got
home to the people for whom it was
intended. Winslow is fortunate in
having as able and eloquent a minis
ter as Mr.. Barclay.
The band and orchestra concert
was revelation to the Winslow peO-
pie, Most of them came expecting to
be bored and to listen to typical
kid" concert. When they arrived
they heard finished performance in
which classical music splendidly ex-
ecuted predominated The rendition
of "Il Trovatore" by the band and
the wonderful march from "Tann-
hauser" by the orchestra are particu
larly noteworthy. Too much credit
can not be given Mr.. Goodhall for the
wonderful results he has obtained
from these organizations. Wins1ow
people will be glad to know that he
will be with us again next year,
Mr. Edwin Matthews assisted in
this concert with saxaphone solo.
1t was beautifully executed and was
enthusiastically encored by the au-
dience.
The Commencement closed with the
High School exercises Monday night.
The honor orations were given by
Thelma Lamb and Kenneth Cooper
These young people have made a
splendid record through their high
school course and are deserving Of
the honor they received,
The Commencement address was
given by DR.. Frank G. Lockwood,
head of the Extension Department of
the University of Arizona. 1t was
one of the most scholarly addresses
ever given in Winslow and the peo-
pie were leaning forward in their
seats from the first word until the
last 1t was an impassioned appeal
for ideals and real values in life in a
world which seems to have gone
money-mad and emphasized the fact
that the graduates were getting val
ues which made for stronger for
happiness and contentment in life
than the things of a materialistic ma
ture more highly valued,

WINSLOW BEATS GALLUP,

To date, Winslow baseball team ha
not as yet suffered a defeat the loca
team having up to date played thre
games. In truth we must agree witt
one of the ardent fans when h
states that we can not find enough
competition in our own state W.
have met teams from Arizona. Cali
fornia and New Mexico and still hav,
not found a team that will give us {
chance to show what we are able tt
do in a pinch. The most recent vic
ers was their easy defeat of the Gal
lup nine.
| A number of the local fans accom-
panied the home team to the mining
city to do the roofing that we deemed
was necessary. namely, Joe Klein
dienst. Casey Jones, Frank Farms
| worth, Clark Reed andnot by far the
least Mrs. Schaul. wife of our star
short-stop. and Mrs Hall, wife OF
our star twirler, Right here we will
say that the two ladies did them
selves proud and we are sure glad
to know that we have some of the
faithful with us, Clark Reed was our
choice for umpire and if the big lea
guers could have witnessed his per-
formance behind the bat at Gallup
last Sunday, Winslow would have
been shy a baker and no doubt we
would be obliged to eat some other
kind Of bread than the kind of Mo-
theirs bread that Reed makes
To proceed with the game: VIM
slow started out in the first inning by
slamming the ball to all corners of
the Gallup ball park and when the
Gallup boys finally did succeed in
getting the third out, Winslow had
six runs to their credit which was
more than Gallup got in the entire
game. Speedy" Thurston was
hurting for Gallup but the time limit
was set and Mr., Hadfield. the Gallup
manager. gave him the high sign in
the second inning with three men on
and his successor did not fare much
better as Winslow had twelve runs
at the end of the second inning
Our Wild Boy. Maurice Anderson,
Catcher Lawler. Joe Fisher and
Shorty Schaul were the stars of the
game each one doing some heavy
hitting and clean base running.
Maurice got a home run. Lawler
stole home, Joe made a fine running
catch of fly ball and doubling
man at third and Schaul reaching
third on single by clever base run
ming, The final score was Winslow
20, Gallup 6. and if it had not been
for our genial friend Jupiter Pluvius
the score would no doubt have been
up in three figures for Winslow at
the rate they were going,
The locals feel highly encouraged
over the fact that the fans take such
an interest in their ball club and tho
the boys play Kingman at Kingman
next Sunday. they feel that with
about four games safely tucked away
under their belts. the fans will make
it a point to come out and root their
best.

A %PREJUDICED N

vxTOOL GROWERS should not and probably will not be mduly
wv alarmed by the somewhat salamitous interview even to The
Evening Herald yesterday by a st. Louis wool buyer, who
toreeasted the early and complete suspension Of the wooden industry.
This gentleman advised wool growers not to hold their wool and not
to consign it, but to sell it for what they can get, right now. If this
gentleman were in the business of growing wool instead of buying
and selling it, his advice might be entitled TO more consideration
Wool growers will find the home dealers with whom they have been
accustomed to deal, and the home bankers to whom they have been
accustomed to take their financial problems, far safer councillors in
the present situation than even accredited representatives of highly
rated outside interests in the wool trade.
1t is true that the wooden mills are running on short time and
that orders are slack. But the wooden mills are not going TO shut
down for an indefinite period. There are no such stocks of mann.
featured goods and no such stocks of raw woods ON hand as this
gentleman appears to believe; also the American Woolen company
and its vast allied interests are not going out Of business. The man
ufacturers are in much the same quandary as are the wool growers.
Like the growers they are seeking a way through a peiod Of adjust
ment. Like the growers they win find il, and in all probability very
soon. In the meantime talk tending TO stampede wool growers into
dumping wool onto a market that is alleged not TO exist Is mighty
poor business logic,
