ties of the season was that giver
by Miss Margaret Bond and Mrs
Laura Stevens for Mrs. Elizabett
Craig, at the home of the latter
Thursday evening, Aug. IL, with
the Kings Daughters of the M. E
church as guests.
Formality was thrown to the
winds, and it was not at all hard to
imagine "School Days, School
Days." when in looking at any OF
the guests one could behold little
school girl, with dainty curls or
braids and big hair ribbon, short
skirts, and the regulation school
girl costume. Everybody was there
for a good time, and they had it.
The party was given as fare
we'll for Mrs. Craig, who for some
time had been the much loved
teacher of the Kings Daughters
class, and while the departure of
Mrs. Craig is deeply regretted, the
guests tried to lay this fact aside
and enjoy her company to the
limit.

located those interesting people,
the Cliff Dwellers, and the ruins
of their cities high up in mac

speculation as to these ancient
people. 1t Is supposed that these
Cliff Dwellers We're the ances-
tors of the Pueblo Indians and
were decidedly more advanced
In civilization than their neigh
bors. They were probably of
the same race as the Aztecs of
Mexico and understood irriga-
ton, agriculture and the build
ing arts.
1t was rumors of the great
Pueblos that instigated the first
visit of the white men. Padre
Nizan in 1889 explored this ter
ritory and he was followed by
Coronado in search of the myth
ical wealth of the Indian cities.
Coronado, though falling to find
the reputed gold, did discover
the Grand Canon of the Colo
RADIO with It's wonderful scenic
beauty, which has become one Of
the great assets of the state.
This region was considered
part of Spanish territory and
when Mexico declared its inde-
pendence it became Mexican
province. After the Mexican
war the section north of the Gila
river was ceded to the United
States and the southern portion
was acquired through the Gads-
den Purchase in 1858. In 1868
Arizona was separated from
New Mexico and made terri
tory.
The derivation of the name
Arizona is uncertain, but it pos
sibly came from the Spanish,
meaning dry belt"

EIGHT LOSE LIVES
 WHEN HOTEL BURNS
IncendiariSm Blamed for Blaze By Coroner'S Jury, and
 Man Is Sought
By Associated Press

England, Ark, January 7.-Incendiar- ism was responsible for the fire which early this morning destroyed the Royal hotel here and which caused the death of eight persons and the serious injury of four others, according to the verdict of a coroner's jury which this afternoon made an investigation of the deaths. The arrest of a man suspected of setting fire to the building was ordered by the jury
 The coroner's investigation was held behind closed doors and many persons whom it was believed might throw light on the origin of the fire were summoned. After the investigation, Coroner J. T. Lipscomb stated that sufficient evidence had been heard to convince the jurors that the fire was started by man said to have made threats against Mrs M. E. Smith, proprietor of the hotel. The man suspected was said to have left England early this morning and thus far efforts to locate him have failed.
 The fire started on the second floor of the building and by consuming the stairways. trapped the 20 guesets on that floor. Several of them escaped by knot ting bed clothes together and letting themselves down through windows. The building destroyed housed several busi- ness firms, all of which sustained con siderable damage. The total loss was estimated at s150,00

Central and South American fields to make up the balance of our require- ments. Nevertheless, abroad as we'll as at home, evidence is yet at hanc which would give any assurance that the expansion in the production of petroleum will be sustained. In fact all the ev- idence suggests that decline is in- evitable in oil production. Mir Little calls attention to the fact that from an era of phenomenal expansion the pe- trcleum industry is now finding itself suddenly face to face with need of re- trenchment.
 A MOTOR FUEL INDUSTRY
 It is to the development of the inte- nal combustion engine and oil burning apparatus for steamships and to some extent locomotive engines, that the re- cent increase in the petroleum industry is due. Mir Little says that petroleum is now chiefly a motor fuel industry. He might have added that upon this indus try the enormous importance of lubr- cation depends. Important because should there be a falling off in lubr- eating oil, which now constitutes about 12 per cent of the total oil production industry would be impaired
 But it is the motor fuel industry which commands the greatest importance in the petroleum situation It is true tha. there is great market for kerosene, gas, oil and other products but these are incidentals to the production of gas oline. There are men who are not past middle age who remember when the refineries regarded gasoline as a nus ance and in various secret ways dis posed of it. Not until an ingenious cit izen of Connecticut demonstrated that gasoline was the ideal source of power for an internal combustion engine, did there begin an understanding of th. wealth and possibilities which are in gasoline. MT. Little says that it is on gasoline that the industry must focus primarily in an effort to fulfill it's ob- ligatons
 MT. Little goes on to say that it is inconceivable that the. petroleum indus try should be left to run it's wasteful course until at last the industry is end ed. The oil industry of the past. with it's uncoordinated wastefulness. mus. give place to a chemical coordination which will make the most of what re- mains of our petroleum resources.
