2+0O feet consider able gas and some
oil had been struck in the Lincoln
well No. 2 at Dayton. The repor,
comes from authentic sources, and
the oil excitement, which has been
more or less dormant, has received
a new impetus. To add to the gen.
eral interest, the report is current
that the Burton-Spencer Oil com
pany has put in an order with a
Roswell lumber company for the
material for construction OF their
derrick in the White Lake pasture,
east of Elkins. The contract sign
ed some time ago called for begin
ming of work at that site by June
l, and indications are that the work
will be in progress by that time.

der contract to put down four test
wells in that section where they
hold a large acreage.

is valued at at least so.

LEAP YEAR DANCE
 SUCCESS ASSURED

As the date of the Leap Year dance draws near, interest. in the affair increases steadily, and there is every reason to believe, at this time, that the dance will be one of the most enjoyable ever held in Ne mana. The dance is also causing considerable worry - among those men who have not yet received in vitations and among those ladies who have not yet decided whom to invite. But the worry is growing less daily, and will disappear en- tirely, it is believed, days before the dance takes place. The ladies have been very busy the past sev- eral days, issuing their invitations. and all of them probably will have secured partners by the end of an- other day or two. Some of the ladies have invited as many as three men. There is no limit.
 All of the ladies are requested to have slips of paper, with their names written on them, and tied securely in the corner of hand kerchief, ready to hand in at the hall upon their arrival there on the night of the dance. The reason for this request will be made clear at the proper time.
 The gentlemen are reminded to study up on the rules before the night of the dance, in order that they may avoid the many breaks that a gentleman should not make on such an occasion. They must not cross the floor, for instance, unless escorted by a lady. They'll get theirs if they do. And they must be escorted to the door also when leaving the hall. Smokes may come high unless this rule is ob- served But there will be no over
 doing it in the way of fining, the
 rules having been made more with
 view to creating little amuse,
 ment and at the same time com
 polling the men to behave them
 selves like ladies.
 ! It is believed the combined at traction of show and dance will bring a number of men in from various points along the line on the
 night of February IA. and the dance
 probably will be more than usually well attended on that account.

NEW RAILROAD 10 OPEN 0N MONDAY
 WITH NEW STOCK

The new Railroad Cigar Store and Barber Shop will open its doors to the public on Monday, and a cordial invitation is extended to Nenana- ties to visit the new place. Fresh and bright in its new decorations. the Railroad presents most at- tractive appearance, and the show cases and shelves are filled with fresh smokers supplies, candies, fresh fruit and the many other things that go to make up the stock of a first-class cigar store and pool hall
 At the left of the store, as one enters, are three barber chairs, with stationary washstands and all the other appointments of city barber shop. These will be presided over by Billy Thomas, proprietor of the establishment, John Wahlgren and Joe Mills, all sourdoughs, too well known to need introduction. The cigar store and pool hall end of the establishment will be looked after by Lou Isabel, also an oldtimer, known in practically every camp in the Interior.
 At the rear of the store are the bathrooms, entirely closed in and neatly furnished, with sanitary DOT celain tubs and bathroom fixtures. i Also in connection with the new Railroad are number of comforta- ble rooms on the second floor, steam heated and clean as it is possible to make them. They may be had by the day or for longer periods if de- sired.
 The Railroad building was pur- chased some time ago by Mir. Thom- as, and during the past several weeks carpenters, interior decora. tors and steam-ftters have been busy transforming the place, and the result would do credit to a towr of much greater size than Nenana.

ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS
 SOCIETY HAD BUSY
 MONTH IN NOVEMBER

The Maricopa County Anti Tuber 1 culosis Society has completed a busy month, during which 103 families were under supervision of the public health nurses in its employ, according to Miss Etelka Weiss, the nurse in | charge. Of this number 26 families l were referred to the nurses in No vember. Twelve of the 26 families came to the society's attention be- cause of tuberculosis, the others be- cause of sick babies, open wounds and other causes. During the month the nurses made 216 visits, giving nursing care. instructions in hygiene and pro phylaxis, home nursing and social service.
 The value of public health nurses has been acknowledged long since, not only because they enable sick persons i in all classes of life to obtain skilled care and supervision. but because they l have an essential part in the educa- | tional and preventative campaigns 1 being carried on in all modern com
 munities.
 The nurses employed by the Marico-
 pa Anti Tuberculosis Society may be
 reached every day except Saturday and Sunday, between 1 and D. m., at
 room 516, Heard building, telephone l 1758. Anyone who has knowledge of sick persons who are not getting the proper medical care may refer them to the nurses, who will call at the
 earliest time possible. Many people
 already know this and have taken ad
 vantage of the opportunity, thereby
 bringing help and comfort to many
 pitiful patients who, through their
 poverty or ignorance in matters of ill-
 ness and nursing, were endangering
 their own lives and in some cases the
 lives of their families and neighbors. Tubercular parents, pre-disposed
 with whom nothing agrees" whole
 bor who is careless and expectorates
 anywhere" are some of the many
 problems referred to the nurses. In
 one instance a father of five children, suffering from open second stage pull mona-y tuberculosis, refused to be- lieve in germs at all. Can you imag inc the chances of the children, all under 14?" remarked a nurse in
 speaking of the case.
 In another instance, a father in the
 last stages of tuberculosis refused to leave his family. Fortunately, he was persuaded to believe in germs, and the children may be saved, though they are already infected, as the man had been i'll several years before he re ceived any instructions in hygiene. Other instances could be cited, but the goal after all is the same in
 every case: To save lives and health. H and with the help of the people who < are able we will keep on saving them on an increasingly large scale" said Miss Weiss yesterday.

now doing public health or soc al ser vice work.
 Among the sites proposed for the clinic, and the one that seems best suited for it's work al present, are the rooms of the Arizona Atni- Tubercu- losis association at 300 East Adams street. It is probable that for the first year of the clinic this site will be chosen for the location of the clinic.
 The primary purpose of the Mari cOpa County Health Center is the maintenance of free clinic work in all it's branches and the direction of proper education in hygiene and sani- tation. The class of patients to be treated and cared for at the clinic will be those who are financially unable to provide themselves with their own physician.
 To Have Schedule of Work
 A schedule will be laid out and each branch of the work will be taken care of on a certain day during the week and at a set hour. 1t is planned to have some clinic work going on at every hour of the day. The clinic will have a staff of visiting nurses in at patient is treated, who will then do follow-up work on the case by visiting the home of the patient. These nurs- es also will do social service work. \
 The proceeds derived from the sale of the Red Cross Christmas seals and health bonds will be devoted in part Ito the maintenance of the free clinic which will include a clinic for the treatment of tuberculosis. The free clinic is one of the results of the pub lie health survey which was conducted jointly last summer by the Arizona state board of health and the Arizona Anti Tuberculosis association under thel direction of T. c. Cuvellier, execu- tive secretary.
 The meeting held Tuesday night was called to order by Dean William Scar lett, acting chairman. and was attend ed by the following: Mrs. Thomas E. Campbell, Mrs. Dwight B. Heard, Mrs. Donald Dunbar, Mrs. J. S. Stark, Mrs. John Dennett, Jr, Colin Eagan, Dwight B Heard, Leroy Kennedy, Royal Lescher, Dr. H. P. Mills, B. E. Marks, W. c. Foster, w. R. Wayland, J. B.

HEALTH CENTER ID BE
 OPENED JAN. Z
Organization For Founding Free Clinic Is Formed And Committees Named ; To Be Thoroughly Mod ern and Complete

With the opening of the Maricopa County Health Center on January 2. 1921, the first free clinic in the state of Arizona will be started. At a meet ing held Tuesday evening in the rooms of the Arizona Anti-Tuberculosis asso- citation, 800 East Adams street, a reso- lution was passed to appoint commit tees to take the necessary steps i'm mediately for the opening of the clinic on January 2. This clinic is to be modern, up-to-date and complete in every detail for the treatment of all kinds of diseases and will be free to those who are financially unable to provide themselves with medical at tendance.
 The movement for a free clinic has been under way for some time and Dr. George F. Goodrich, state super intendent of public health, was ap- pointed as temporary acting chair man. to appoint a committee to get together and perfect the organization. Dr. Goodrich selected nineteen citizens who met Tuesday evening and organ ized as the Maricopa County Health Center.
 The following officers were elected eo serve for a year: Dean William Scarlett, chairman; Mrs. Dwight B, Heard, first e-chairman; Dr. John Dennett, Jr, second vice chairman;  Mrs. Henry Baswitz, secretary; W. c. Foster, treasurer. Resolutions then were adopted by the newly organized clinic to take active steps to open the clinic at once, and for the appoint ment by the officers, of six commit tees to carry out the work. These committees will be appointed in a few days.
 Committees Named
 The first committee will obtain the affiliation of existing organizations now doing social service work which should coordinate with that of the clinic. Committee No. will select a housing for the clinic. Committee No. 3 will select the clinic staff of physi- clans. Committee NoI will select the clinic superintendent or head nurse. Committee No. will secure the finances. and Committee No. will have charge of furnishing the clinic.
 The first committee will be the board of directors of the clinic and will be composed of representatives of all the organizations in the city which are
