Rev. Kecks Address,

Following the address of Mr.. Hays,
Rev. Keck, of the First Methodist
church of Champaign made very in
teresting and instructive talk. The
present condition of affairs in this
country, he said, could not be rene
died by either extreme radicalism or
extreme capitalizing. A conservative
force, such as that advocated by the
American Federation, would find the
remedy.
The withdrawal of capital from the
support of the churches and religious
societies was caused, said Rev. keck,
by reason of the lnterchurch Move
ment's expose of the methods en-
ployed in the open shop steel mills,
where men work from II to IA hours
day and seven days in the week.
He denounced child labor as a crime
and denounced the capitalistic system
in general, saying it must eventually
give way to something better. He
was entirely out of sympathy with
some judges, whom he intimated,
were too often more concerned with
property rights rather than with hui
man rights.
Speaking about the wealth of some
great" Americans, Mr.. Keck said
that if Adam worked six days a week
ten hours day at a dollar an hour,
and kept it up from the time he was
old enough to work until the present
time, he would not be as rich as Cor
nelius Vanderbilt, and Vanderbilt is
poor man compared with some
others.
Seven million people in the United
States live near the poverty line, and
100000 don't get enough wages to
live properly. Much of the social UNI
rest at the present time is caused
because the poor man does not get
equal justice in the courts of law.
The entertainment committee wish
es to express its appreciation to the
singers who so ably assisted in the
entertainment.

 "A little over a week ago the heavy rams completely destroyed the Agua

 effort to make the crossing passable.
 They labored until 2:15 o'clock that
 afternoon, c.eai ing away debris and
 moving the boulders from the water.
 A Phoenix man, a MT. Diefendorff

 charged him the customary S1 fee, although it required four horses and two attempts to accomplish the trick "It is true that Martin charges $1 for hauling across the river ana $z if the autoist is stuck in mia stream He makes that difference because when the autoist is stuck, it becomes necessary for Martin to wade in the water while the chain is being at- tached to the car.

In addition, there will be a program of speaking, number of contests for the children, and series of cowboy events for which substantial prizes have been offered. At noon there will be a mammoth barbecue, which will be served in the style that has made the Florence Casa Grande valley famous.
 An exceptionally large delegation IS expected from Tucson, the business men of which have made plans to attend the celebration in force.
 The railroad fare to Casa Grande on the special train, round trip, will be s6. The train will leave at $ o'clock Friday morning and will ar rive in Casa Grande in time for the parade, which will open the days program. The return will be made late in the afternoon.

THE CAMPAIGNS OF GERONIMO
BY INDIAN" MILLER

The trail of the Indian in the Great South. suest was crooked trail in the olden days. It led from water to water. In the present day those trails would seem cratic and va grant; for they twisted and turned and climbed, regardless of direction, elevation, or distance. The Indians knew of shortcuts; but these were only used when time was pressing.
 Then came the palefaee. He cursed the Indians and their bad. crooked trails; and laid out waeon roads on easier grades. He did not regard the waterine-plaees so much; for he could haul water 1T, his prairie sehooners {; but he did have to keep water in mind. He also sought to shorten the distance con. siderably from place to place.
 There are many reasons why the roads of the palefaee seldom followed that of the In- dian; and one of the principal ones is that palefaee and Indian seldom went to the same place. But they could not avoid many of the same waterholes and springs.
 So it was that Indian strategy often led to water in time of war; and the thirstine pale face was generally exercised to find drink

CAPTURE THIEF IN
 LOCAL RESIDENCE

When Jose Perez cut through the screen door at the home of Vic Hanny, Third and Portland streets, about Il o'clock yesterday morning and unlatched the hook he opened prison doors for himself and two companions. Perez was taken into custody by Vic Hanny and one of his clerks, 'Bill' Sawyer. Police ar rived almost at the time of the cap ture and transferred the prisoner to jail. They then followed up inves- tigations and later arrested Buddie
 Nesbitt, a. negro, and Louis Ranband, Mexican.
 While Perez carefully inspected the
 Hanny home shortly before Il o'clock
 yesterday morning, Mrs. Ben Butler
 watched him from her home across the street until he began cutting the
 screen at the rear of the house. She
 then telephoned to Vic Hanny at his

for he did not know other drinking places as the Indian did.
 It is said that each Indian killed in the Geronimo campaigns cost the government a million dollars. Ecu understood how that mere handful of Apaehes defed the u. s. and Mexican armies for years. In the first place the Apaehes were hard to catch; because they.were swift travellers. We may say. how- ever, that the Apaehes won by watex; for they knew how to control the supply. Also their leaders uere great strategists.
 But the most important thing of all was that they were superior on the bad trail, hav- ina far greater endurance than the palefaee. And, too. pursuing troops often had great difficulty in extricatine themselves from thirsty places, for fleeing Apaehes would leave a warrior behind to befoul the vater on the ap- proaeh of the pale face.
 As the Indian of old was superior on the bad trails because he trained to endure, so Savage Cord tires are superior on the bad trails today, for they are Built to Excel. Quality will tell.

Announcement was made at Wash ington yesterday that President Harding had appointed John Towles, prominent Republican politician of Miami, to the rost of registrar of the United States land office here, to succeed c. E. Marshall. who resigned on the first of the month.
 The appointment of Towles is the first change to be made by the new administration in the federal off cials of the state, it being the an nounced plan of Republican leaders to permit incumbents to hold office until their terms have expired, fol- lowing the precedent set by the last administration ill allowing Repub- lican office holders to fill out the full time of their incumbency.
