ST. JOHNS SOLID
 GROWTH

Located on the Little Colorado River about half way between Holbrook on the Santa Fe Rail way and the eastern line of Ari- zona, IS the thriving town of St, Johns. the county seat of Apache county. It IS also on the direct Ocean to Ocean highway. Last season 5000 automobiles passed through St. Johns.
 The town has a population of 1, 800, new modern court house, two substantial banks, two good newspapers. six general stores, a garage, lumber yard, up-to- date public schools, an academy, and bonds for a high school.
 For several years the principal industry has been live stock, and vast herds of both cattle and sheep feed on the abundant grass of the great prairies; but the com pletion of the Lyman reservoir is changing the industry into gener- al farming under irrigation.
 The Lyman reservoir, costing a million dollars, is located 15 miles above St. Johns on the Little Colorado River, and besides the direct flow of water has a storage capacity covering 1.5OO acres. This is the largest reservoir in Arizona with the exception of the Roosevelt project near Phoenix. The construction work has re- quired over two years continuous work. It was completed early in April, this year.
 The altitude of St. Johns is $500 feet, making a climate which appeals to a great many home seekers. The weather doesn't get very cold in winter nor very hot in summer.
 St. Johns has a live but conser- vative chamber of commerce which will be pleased to answer questions for prospective inves- tors. The Earth.

''Chamberlain's Tablets have been used by my husband and myself off and on for the past five years. When my husband goes away from home he always takes bottle of them aloHg with him. Whenever have that heavy feeling after eating, or feel dull and played out, 1 take one or two of Chamberlain's Tab lets and they fix me up fine, :" writes Mrs. Newton Vreeland, Minoa, N. Y.

According to newspaper reports diphtheria in a very malignant form is prevalent just oyer the line in New Mexico. Steps should be taken to keep all visitors from that district out of St. Johns. Some IT or IS deaths have occur red at Tinaja recently from this dreadful malady. The disease is spread over the country from Tinaja to Atarque and on down to the Salt Lakes.

Mrs. J. A. Mineer and children are in the city. Mrs. Mineer has been rather i'll and came home where she could receive better care than was possible on a ranch:
 MT. and Mrs. Solomon Waite who have been spending the past month visiting with their daugh- ter, Mrs. Frank Thomas, at Flag staff are expected home the lat ter part of this week.
 A farewell party was rendered H. Victor Overson at the academy last Tuesday evening. Victor leaves this week for a two year mission in the state of California. He goes in the interest of the L.. D. s. Church.
 Fred Rothlisberger of Vernon was in the city during the latter of last week. He says that beans. squash and some corn was frozen up there last Thursday night. This is rather a hard knock to the farmers of that district as it is now too late to plant another crop because the seasons are not long enough to mature crop planted this late.
 Miss Collins, sister of Mrs. E. Keaton Bryan, accompanied by Betsy and Wharton Bryan ar rived in the city last Saturday from El Paso, Texas, and will visit with Mir. and Mrs. Bryan for some time. Miss Betsy has grown to be a young lady since leaving St. Johns about a year ago, while Wharton will soon be- come man if he continues to grow as he has during the past twelve months. Miss Collins has a very pleasing and charming personality, we are in hopes that her stay in our city will be one of pleasure to her.

APPRECIATES
 HOME PAPER

616-9th St., Racine, Wis.
 June IA, 1921. Editor St, Johns Herald:
 Dear Mir. Waite.-I am writing this to express my appreciation of the St. Johns Herald, which I as- sure you is certainly appreciated when you are away from home and from the "old Home, County and State"
 When l receive the home paper my work ceases until I have com pletely devoured every word in it, advertisements and all.
 want to tell the people who read your paper of a few things that exist out in the world so that they may more appreciate their surroundings and the conditions that exist there.
 Here in this city (Raeine) the man who depends on his daily labor for his daily bread is on the verge of starvation.
 It has been estimated by prom inent men of this city that there are ten thousand men out of work who can find nothing to do but sit down and wait for conditions to get better.
 This town manufactures mostly farm machinery, and as the con- ditions among farmers is critical they are not capable of buying any more implements than neees- sity demands. Therefore the shops here have so much machin- cry on hand that they are pfacti- cally closed down.
 The Central association of this city, tan association formed to meet the emergency are caring for the wants of fifteen hundred people of this city. The Racine Mission is also busy. They feed all the hungry who come there and issue bread to everyone who is Tn need of it.
 If conditions don't improve be- fore the coming winter many will suffer from cold and hunger.
 1 want to tell the people of Apache county that they don't appreciate what they have and that they are in the best country in the world and when the bumps gets hard just ask themselves where they can find anything better.
 My thoughts are always on Apache county and her doings, and it is the best country in the United States so far as I have seen.
 With a big Hello" for every one, 1 am sincerely yours.

The Home of the Soul.

In olden times, it was believed that the seat of the soul was the stomach, most likely for the req son that a man is never so com pletely used up as when his stom- ach is out of order. For the cure of ordinary stomach troubles, there is nothing quite so prompt and satisfactory as Chamberlain's s Tablets. They strengthen the stomach and enable it to perform it's functions naturally. Give them a trial. They only cost a quarter. Adv.

ANENT THE
 CELEBRATION

On account of the crowds that are coming for the Fourth of July celebration, we are going to ask every one who can to fit up rooms to rent. Otherwise we will be absolutely unable to take care of them. Please list your rooms with Jacob Earth.
 The rain last Sunday improved the Gallup-Zuni-St. Johns road wonderfully and it is now certain that some fast time will be made over that road. Two new cars were entered yesterday and the committee feel sure that they have a good race coming.
 From every direction you hear of cowboys practicing calf roping and the wild horses are being gathered for the riding contest.
 If the chariot races bring as many to the celebration as the practices do to the grandstand each evening the celebration will be a complete success.
 The Whiting boys have taken their chariot outfits to Springer vile for the try-out but the real race will be the mile race here at St. Johns July 4th, -four times around the circle track where the crowds will have full view of every move from start to finish
 CLEAN UP DAY. By permis- sion of the County Heallh office, the celebration committee has designated July 1st as town clean up day and asks the support of the business houses, societies. or ganizations and every individual who is interested in town boosting to help back up this move. The work of the Parents Class was a great success last April. Lets do it again.
 We cannot have a successful Fourth of July unless the town is clean and all the the old dead trees are out of the way.
 Lets all boost and work.

Why Suffer from Rheumatism?

Do you know that nine out of every ten cases of rheumatism are simply rheumatism of the muscles or chronic rheumatism, neither of which requires any in- ternal treatment? The pain may be relieved by applying Cham berlain's Liniment, which makes sleep and rest possible, and that certainly means a great deal to any one afflicted with rheuma- tism. Adv.

MAY GUST BOARD
MEMBE R, RULING
nv The Associated Press,I

/ Boston, Nov. 23.-The supreme
court today handed down its de-
cision in the litigation concerning
governing boards Of the Christian
| Science church and its publications.
! 1t held that the directors of the
First Church of Christ, Scientist,
of Boston (the Mother church,
have the power to remove a mem
Der of the board of trustees OF the
Christian Science Publishing So
ciety.
It dismissed the bill brought by
the trustees to prevent directors
from interfering with the affairs
of the society.
The decision in other respects
confirmed the report of Judge
Frederick Dodge, who sat as mas
ter in the controversy, except thal
it made no ruling on the question
whether John V. Dittemore, re-
moved as a director by his TEL
low members, or Mrs. Annie M.
Knott, elected to succeed him, was
a director legally. The latter ques-
ton was declared to be at issue
in a separate suit. Exceptions TO
the masters report taken by Mrs.
Emile B. Hulen, OF Brooklyn N.
Y, having been waived, were not
considered by the court The APP
peals of Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin A.
Krauthoff of Washington, were dis
missed.
In it's ruling as to the power OF
the directors to remove trustees,
the court held that the removal by
them Of Lamont Rowlands, as
trustee was effectual.
The court said that the manual
of the church appears to be
vital part of Christian Science IL
found also that since the manual
purported to be the work of Mrs.
Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the
church, there can be now since
the decease of Mrs. Eddy, no
change in the provisions of the
church manual in accordance with
terms"
Today's finding came almost a
wear after the supreme court TOOK
he case for consideration follow
ing arguments on the masters re-
port. The suit was filed originally
on March 25. 1919. Judge Dodge
filed his report a year later.

SCHUMANN HE|NK
To APPEAR HERE
CHRISTMAS WEEK
Apollo Club Completes Ar
rangements for Great
Musical Event; Duke City
Business Men Cooperate

Madam Schumann- Heink will
give a concert in Albuquerque at
the armory on the evening of De-
cember 30 under the auspices of
the Apollo club.
Learning that the famous singer
was to be in the city during the
holidays visiting her son-in-law,
who is now living here, George
Geake and Maurice Klein, both Of
ficers of the Apollo club, immedi-
ately started negotiations to see if
she would favor Albuquerque with
a concert.
The negotiations were successful
and, following the new spirit which
has been demonstrated in the
chamber of commerce meetings
this week, exactly one hour and fif-
teen minutes were all that were
necessary to secure fifteen Albu-
querque business men to guarantee
the money to cover the expenses.
Part for Charity.
At Madam Schuman-H eink's de-
sire a part of the proceeds Of the
concert will go toward bringing
Christmas holiday cheer to those
who are not fortunate enough to
obtain it except through charity.
Arrangements were made to turn a
portion of the proceeds over to the
bureau of charities, to be distribut-
ed at their discretion.
The appearance OF Madame
Schumann- Heink in Albuquerque
Decent Der 20 will positively be her
only public appearance during her
holiday visit here, either in the city
or in the state, according to an an
nouncement issued last night by
her manager.
As this is the case every effort
will be made by the Apollo club tc
accommodate not only Albuquer-
oueans and those fortunate enough
TO be visiting in the city. but also
to accommodate all lovers Of music
throughout the state.
Mr.. Geake and Mr.. Klein ex'
pressed the hope tN:at az this was
the largest musical event in the
history of the state, every person
who loves the art should grasp the
opportunity to hear 1t. The ticket!
will be sold at popular prices anc
special rases will be made FOL
school children in order that they
NAV attend in large numbers.
Exactly what the program for inc
evening will be is uncertain, but II
is probable that members Of the
Apollo club will assist and thai
Madam Schumann-Heink N
George Geake will render one OF
more duets.
The program will be announced
within a few days by the Apollo
club. which, although 1t has beer
but recently organized. has already
developed such activity in musical
circles that it is able to secure SUCH
a performance for Albuquerque
Mr.. Geake and Mr.. Klein were
greatly responsible in organizine
the club to meet the greatly fel'
need in the city.
Their appeal yesterday to the
business men of Albuquerque met
with instant enthusiasm and the
following men and companies have
become guarantors of the concert:
Max Nordhaus, j. B. Herndon, j.
NJ. Reynolds, Arthur Prayer. Ivan
Grunsfeld, r. T.. Dietz, C. 7.
