An old-fashioned dance was enjoyed
by a large crowd last Tuesday night
at l. o. O. F. hall. Music was furn-
ished by Chas. Tiff and John Kayak,
and the way that bunch kept time was
a novelty. Evidently the musicians
thought they might as we'll let them
dance while they were there and kept
them continually on the jump. Why,
the men even had to remove their
coats in order to be comfortable Bert
Tiff danced with all the girls and says
he never had better time, no, not
even when he was a young man. Mai
Neumann swung the ladies with a
vim that left them almost breathless
No doubt there are numerous other
tales that would prove interesting if

GlG CARNIVAL |S
 POSTPONED UNTIL
 JANUARY F AND 19

CHANDLER. Dec. z7.-At a meet ing of the Chandler Progress Car nival committee Tuesday morning it vas decided to postpone the big car nivzl until Thursday and Friday. Jan 12 and 1S, 1922. The rainy and indictment weather of the past few days has made the dirt roads impass- able. while the committee felt it would be taking long chance to ex- pose the concessions to the weather in case il should begin raining again.
 The committee felt that the rains were the best thing that could happen 10 Arizona and that these rains were far more important to the farmers than any celebration could possibly be- IL was with this sentiment in mind that it was finally decided to postpone the affair until about the middle of January and thus permit the present unsettled weather to clear up
 The interest and enthusiasm that has been displayed by the people of the Salt River valley has been most gratifying to the committee and ii wishes to take this opportunity to thank everyone for this interest and to express the wish that their enthu- sissm will continue to burn brightly until the postponed carnival is given in January
 Plans are already under way for a number of new shows and stunts that would not have been on the bills foi this weeks carnival, and indications now point to a bigger and better as sortment of performances than ever

RECENT EVENTS IN
 ROOSEVELT DISTRICT

The Roosevelt Christmas celebra- tion given in the school patio on Fri- day night was very successful, judged by the eager happy faces of the hun dreds ot children who filed by the generous Santa Claus who presided over the treats. Even the grownups. though. who had complained of a lack of Christmas spirit this year, received a full share of the spirit The carols sung by the children around the tree; the tree. gay with it's Christmas dress of tinsil. pop corn, red balls and bright lights; the joly old Santa Claus; the commun- ity singing, all combined to make the 1921 Community Christmas happy memory.
 There was so much Christmas in the air last week at the school even reading. 'riting and 'rithmetic' ceased to be commonplace and be- came fascinating stories of Christ mas customs; copying of Christmas wishes, and solving the Christmas dollar problem.
 In the primary grades the sand table was used to portray the Christ mas stories. The snow scene made by the second grade was very pret- ty The story of the Bethlehem Babe was cIeverly arranged by the thirC grade. The fourth grade used ont corner of it's room to display Christ mas novelties it had made; also very realistic Santa, reindeer and slet l ready to take heavy pack down { chimney-around the fireplace O which empty stockings were waiting
