For Precious Clippinpx

Every woman interested in her home sooner or later forms the habit of clipping recipes, hints and articles of varied nature which she intends some time to enter in a scrapbook. Too often they are misplaced before that time arrives. A letter file, a book-like box with index, is excellent either for permanent or temporary filing. If filed alphabetically when clipped the articles are easily found when wanted. Cook-indexes, letter files etc. on sale at The Canaan Printing Go.

PAVING QUESTION UP FOR THE
COUNCILS DECISION

The question of the character OF
paving of Wnsiows streets will
undoubtedly be settled today or this
evening by he city council DR..
Sprankle and Fred Dunham of the
city council and City Attorney G. c..
Bazell arrived home las, evening
from Phoenix where they were in
attendance at the opening of the
bids at the office of State Engineer
Thomas Maddox 1t is for the city
to accept or reject the bids.
Warren Brothers bid $67,925 95,
subject to 77a per cent discount,
which makes the real bid $62,S31.31.
The bid of the Dan La Roe Con-
struction company was $32 2,43155,
plus the cost of the cement laid
down at Winslow Advices receiv-
ed today from Phoenix place the
cost of the cement fob. Winslow
at $14 $1,000, which makes the La
Roe bid total $47,10155.
The Warren Brothers bid is for
bitulithic paving and the La Roe bid
is for concrete. The difference in
the cost of the bitulithic at S62.831.-

aid project No. 20 provides $4,000

would still remain the same differ
ence in cost to the paving district.
maintenance will be, if there is any
difference
The question that coItsronts the
city council is whether or not the
bitulithic pavement is worth the
$15r729.76 more than the concrete,
and what the difference in cost of
maintenance vii be. if there be any
difference
Just why there should be this diff
ference in the cost of the pavements
is not explained as in manv paving
projects the bids for bitulithic pave
ment have been under the concre' e
bids. ANYWAY, q difference in cost
of $15,729.76 to the people who are
paying for it seems a considerable
item in the original expense unless
the life of the bitulithic pavement
is some years longer than that of
the concrete.

BASEBALL

Manager Geo. o. Hixon's, aggre-
cation of ball players defeated the
fast Williams team on the local
grounds here last Sunday, by 4 score
Of TO 0. The hard rain the night
before left the ground in had shape
and this probably was ooa Of the
reasons for the slowness Of the
game Parks did the twirling for
locals and while he was touche1 for
hits, he was effective in the pinchcs
and pulled himself out of a number
of holes when a hit would have re-
suited in at least two runs. Doug Il
boy" Hall did the receiving for Wins
low and caught a good game, but
was not effective when pegging to
the bases. This fault was far over
shadowed by his terrific hitting He
secured four hits, one of which was
crashing two-begger to left field
that would have been a home run
had the grounds not been so rough.
Hall was the only local who seem
ed to connect with the fast ones of
Roberta, the star twirler for the Wis
itols. Haynes played a good game
at first and made some one-hand
ed the writer of the days when Hal
Chase was in his prime. Bobbie
Burns had another good day at
second and made nine put-outs which
were instrumental in putting a num-
Der of the visitors back to the bench.
Cook played good ball at short and
broke his batting slump by. connect
ing with one of Roberta's S fast ones
for a single. Crandall. while not
playing as brilliant as in the King
man game, fielded his position we'll.
The outfield consisting of Clarke,
Hanley and Switzerland played true
without an error The old time
whiskered pun, which consists of
the 3rd baseman holding the ball
and the pitcher stalling as if he had
it and was getting ready to pitch,
was pulled bv Williams on Clarke
in the 5th inning. Captain Doaner
who was coaching on third at the
time was SO engrossed in his rule
book that he did not notice that the
3rd baseman had the old onion so
securely picked Clarke who was
caught so unawares then attempted
to steal home but was thrown out
by a wide margin. Marcellus Snyd-
er and Alfred Kleindenst officiated
with the indicators. While some of
the visitors kicked about Snyders
calling of the balls and strikes at
the plate it is the writer's opinion
that he did very good and if bum
one was called he attempted to even
it up with a fairness for all The at
tendance dwindled considerably Sun
day and it is hoped that more of the
fans will turn out for the next game
here. The ball players receive no
salary and this places same in the
category of amateur sport with no
tinge of professionalism that SO
many fans object to-. The money re-
ceived going for baseballs and like
equipment Winslow has been con-
ceded the best ball club in Northern
Arizona and it would sure be fine
if more folks showed their appreci-
alton of the club which is booster
of untold value for any city and
baseball is a clean sport that ap-
peals to all 1t is reported that thse
locals will Journey to Williams to
administer another trimming next
Sunday.
