ued for a period of months. when committees were designated to make preliminary arrangements for a new home.
 First Site Donated
 E. J. Remit donated a site at the northern end of Central avenue. at the Arizona canal. The club then purchased tract of desert land on the north side of the canal, compris- hhS about l20 acres. A clubhouse was construted on the Bennitt site and cost about s10,OOO. A 9-hole desert golt course was constructed and ten ms courts provided. Reorganization or the club was effected as a means of financing the new club house and golf course.
 For eight years. accomodations at he new club fulfilled every need. membership growth eventual made evident a need for larger and more pretentious quarters if the club were to continue to thrive and expand. So agitation for new home was started.
 The first step was the purchase of the 160-acre tract at the northeast corner of Seventh street and Thomas road. When this was done, a new cor porate organization was formed. .alled the Phoenix Country club. The new club is substantially a continu- ation of the old all stockholders of the former club having privilege of converting stock in the former organ- ization as part payment for shores in the new club.
 Interest Increases
 Increasing interest in golf among club members, as well as demands from nonresident members and vis- ltors. was instrumental in influenc- Ing the club in purchasing a tract of sufficient proportions to permit con- struetion of an 1S-hole grass golf course.
 After the club had acquired the site. Dr. Kimball Bannister, chairman of the greens committee, was author ized to proceed with plans for the golf course. The services of Harry Collis, we'll known professional were secured to aid in mapping out course. Mir. Collis Is recognized one of the foremost experts in the United States on flat courses.
 The grounds committee then se-# cured the services of a well known landscape architect of California,

TILE ROOF AT NEW
 COUNTRY CLUB IS
 LOCAL FIRMS WORK

Surmounting all at the new Coun- try Club building is the roof. It is a home product and one worthy of the beautiful structure it covers. The Arizona Cornice works made the en- tire roof in their shops here on West Jefferson street. F. NJ. Thornton and his son, Thomas H. Thornton, own and manage this industry.
 The roofing is all cement tile, one of the very few in this state. It's construction required the services of six men besides those employed in manufacturing the metal forms and other metal parts in the shop. This company has an established reputa- tion here for it's high grade work manship in manufacturing and lay ing tile roofs. In the past the firm

 Actual construction work on the home was started last spring, the contract being awarded to the Eagan Construction company. The cost of the building alone was $42,500, with furnishing and equipment adding another S15.0O0 to the outlay. The whole has been financed by the club membership.

 has specialized In the clay tile type but proved highly successful in the cement tile job at the Country Club There were 132 squares or 13,200 square feet in the roof
 In addition to roofing the Country Club building the Arizoria Cornice company furnished much of the metal equipment for the kitchen, including steam table and a steak broiler Until this firm installed machinery for the purpose, local hotels and restaurants were forced to send out side the state for such equipment The home product is on a par with any that has been shipped into the city from outside sources and was furnished at lower cost than it could have been procured elsewhere. as freight and handling charges were eliminated.

STRANSKY DISCUSSES
AMERICAN RAGT|ME

Josef Stransky, we'll known conduc-
tor of the Philharmonic Society OF
New York which will be heard here
in the Coliseum, iipri1 I, under direc-
ton of Women's club, is not one OF
those high in musical circles, that
sneers at ragtime. He considers it
very significant in the development of
American music.
Said Mr.. Stransky recently: I'VE
cannot afford to overlook ragtime as it
is related to American music. A good
many people are wont to depreciate its
value, because it is popular. That is
the very reason We cannot overlook It.
Popular means of the people and it is
!, the people who originate the type of
all national music. Musically speak.
ing America is comparatively a young
nation and has as yet developed no
characteristic music of its own, but if
we wish to search for the source from
which this evolution will spring we
shall not find it in the works of native
musicians no matter how talented they
are, if they derive their inspiration
from composers of other lands l feel
that it is not too niue hto say that the
real and great American music of the
future will be influenced if not based
upon the ragtime and popular music
of today The reason for this is quite
simple. The rhythm of ragtime is
characteristic of a more deep rooted
thing than American musical feeling
1t represents the energy, and spas
modic enthusiasm of the American
people. 1t is therefore undoubtedly
the forerunner of the greater but no
less characteristic American music OF
the future

LIFE SAVING CORPS
TO Be FORMED HERE
UNDER ~ DIRECTION

Life saving corps are to be organized
in Richmond and plans for the organi-
zation are rapidly getting under way.
Many persons have announced their
intention of entering the class. The
work will be under the direction of
the Y. NJ. c. A. Thomas P. Wilson,

ested and wish to join are requested
to see Mr.. Wilson at the Y. This is
not open only for members Of the
but also for the public Of Richmond.
There is no fee charged for this work.
The only expense is the small sum
that is paid the Red Cross for the
badge received from them after quail
flying.
After the course is completed, a
test will be given each individual and
if he passes this test he will be en-
titled to wear the life savers emblem
of the Red Cross upon his swimming
suit The emblem is white life
buoy with red bands and the initials
az. S. c., A. R. c." In the center of
the ring is a red cross.

1t is the plan of Mr. Wilson to or
gauiZe a senior corps first and then
later to organize junior corps. Mr..
Wilson wants spersons who do not
know how to swim to wait for later
class. Later he will have a class for
people who are interested and do not
know the art of swimming.
Members of a life saving corps con-
sist of the following: President, vice
president, secretary. treasurer, med
ical officer, mates, and instructor. The
rest of the men are divided into

Many Lose Lives.
| The following figures show the re-
ported drownings for several years;
| in 1915-7,1S4: in 1916-6,8O8; in 1917
$500. These figures are taken from
the American Red Cross book and
many people who have been drowned
have not been reported. The. steady
! decrease as shown in these reports is
due to no small measure to the vari-
Gus societies who are now engaged in

.CRAEF CASE VERDICT
EXPECTED THURSDAY

Summing up of arguments in the
trial of George Graef, charged with
selling liquor to Bertha Eubank last
October, was completed late Thurs
day afternoon. A verdict in the case
was expected late Thursday evening.
Probably the most sensational testi-
mony offered during the trial was that
of Bertha Eubanks, called by the state
as a witness for the prosecution. Ac-
cording to her testimony, Graef had
not only sold her the quart of liquor,
but had recently offered her the sum
of 500 to leave town while the trial
was in progress.
Efforts by the defense to bring in
facts concerning the past life of Mrs.
Eubanks proved unavailing, repeated
objections by the prosecution being
sustained by the court.
According to the story told by Mrs.
Eubanks, she had called at the Graef
home in taxi driven by Harry Mar
tin, late last October. At that time,
she said, she had purchased a quart
Of corn whisky from Graef, which she
took to her home.
Last Sunday, she said, Graef called
at her home with his wife. During
the course of the evening, according
to her testimony, Graef 1ntlmateO tnat
this trial would be a serious matter
for him and he would like to have her
get out of town.
Later she said, Graef. in company
with Berry Moore, offered her 500 to
leave town.
Mrs. Martha Larkin, mother of Mrs.
Eubanks corroborated the testimony
of her daughter as did Martin the taxi
driver.
Jurors in the case were: Max Kit.
/ terman, Kerney Coefield, John Clev'
enger, Mcclellan White, Harry White
Rodney Foulke, Charles Knoll, Char
les Haisley, Rufus Raper, Clarence Bor
