MEXICO CITY IS NOW IN GRIP OF
 J. s. JAZZ DEVILS
By Associated Press

Mexico City. October 22.-Amerfcan 'jazs devils" have come to Mexico City and have, made their syncopa- ton popular, but theatregoing Mexi- cans have failed to appreciate an American musical comedy as recently presented by company of ''girly- girly girls direct from Broadway" to use the words of the inspired press agent. The company appeared hero as one of the attractions of the cen tennial celebration. Advertised as a bit of Broadway transplanted to Mex icn the girls were intended to add a bit of pepper and zest to the month Of fiesta, but. after a few nights. in teresI Jagged and the show concluded its run without breaking any attend ance records.
 It was not because the attraction was below the sta idard of any 5ini- lar show in the United States Old- timers in the American colony here have long declared that American musical comedy will not pay in Mex Ice, and their predictions appear to have been substantiated in the re- cent attempt.

Although 3 number of arrests have been made as result of the fraudu- lentfpractice. tho war department re- ports that persons in various parts of the country are still being vic- imized by individuals who pretend to be able to obtain Dodge Brothers Mo- tor Cars from the government at bar gain prices.

MISTAKES IN PRINT

Let a man make a mistake in his conversation, or even in a letter he may have ad- dressed to you, and you pay little attention to 1t. But let the same mistake appear in a newspaper and 1t sticks out like a sore thumb---it seems to stand right out above everything else in the paper. We'll venture tosay there are not a half-dozen Holbrook citizens who have the least idea of the vast number of metal pieces contained in a single column of a newspap- CT. But there are hundreds of pieces to each column, and the displacement of a single one of these usually means an error. when this IS con- sidered you get a pretty good idea of how easy it is to make a mistake in print. And yet, considering that there are more chance for making a mistake on a single page of a newspaper than there is in writing a hundred letters, the newspaper possibly con- tains fewer errors than any other form of written or printed communication. It might be a good idea, if you are among those who can't understand why an occasi- onal mistake creeps into the paper, to drop around to a newspaper office sometime have this explained for your benefit.

FOREST SERVICE DEPL ORES
 WASTE IN WOOD TURNING

The Forest Service of the United States Department of Agriculture recommends a more intelligent use of timber after it is grown. Forest con- servation deals with the utilization of wood in the sawmill or factory, as well as with it's production in the forest. There is just as much conservation in making twice as many ax handles out of the same amount of wood as there is in doubling the amount of wood grown on a particular area.
 Investigations made by the Forest Service have shown that in logging and manufacturing an average tree but 33 per cent of it's total volume, including limbs and bark, is actually realized as seasoned rough lumber. Taking rough lumber as the starting point, only 95 per cent of it reaches the final manufactured form in plan ing mills and sash and door factor ies; and but 75 per cent of it appears as finished parts in the manufacture of furniture and vehicles. There is probably no wood-using industry in the United States in which there is a greater need of working out ways and means of saving raw material than the manufacture of turned products. In certain instances, 2 tons of nick ory stock-a high grade material rap idly becoming scarce-yielded but 400 pounds of finished handles.
 The Forest Service is encouraging the drive launched by wood-turning manufacturers for standardizing the raw material, reducing waste, and ex- tending the timber supply.

LAND COMMISSIONER
 KUCHLER VISITS FLAG

State Land Commissioner Rudolph Kuchler, of Phoenix, is in Flagstaff this week meeting with the state farm bureau and the conventions of the state cattle and wool growers which convene this morning at the Orpheum theatre.
 In speaking of the land question, Commissioner Kuchler said: "The affairs of the state land office are gradually being strengthened out and all of the old questions settled as fast as it is possible to get to them. Just how to segregate the monies amount ing to over $6O0,00O received under the old administration, which should have been applied on the accounts of the different state institutions, but which were loaned out on farms, is one of the hard questions to solve. The state and counties to which this mon- ey should have gone, are paying 8 per cent interest on money while the loans iileluC Oy I1lC SIelCC OIIy QIdW DCI cent. As a consequence the counties are still levying taxes for money to pay old bonded indebtedness while the funds are loaned out; funds which should have been distributed to the proper funds after the sale or lease of the lands given the state by the government for those specified pur- poses. It would work a great hard ship to withdraw these loans at the present time, even if such a thing were possible.
 While I am thoroughly convinced that the money received from lands set aside to pay off the old bonded indebtedness of Coconino and other counties for the old railroad bond is- sue, it seems they are tied up by legal technicalities which I hope will soon te settled" he declared.

ELKS IN PLAY

Several of the local EIks attended the fete rendered to the Baltimore B. P. O. E. by the Winslow lodge.
 The Winslow BEST PEO- PILE, with no little success, attempted a revival of the "wild and wooly." The re- production was enhanced by the attendance of costumed Navajo Indians. Bronco busting, calf roping, bull dogging, and other stunts were pulled.
 Good feeling was built up in the exchange of souvenirs, the Winslow presentation be- ing a piece of petrified wood, highly polished, in the form of an elks tooth. Baltimore responded with an engraved sterling silver plaque mount ed on rosewood. The en- graving commemorated a very happy time given Balti- more Dodge No. ' by Wins low Lodge No. 536. The visitors left reluctantly. In the evening four legalised as- saults held the stage, broth CTS Craft and Wheeler not withstanding, to the cont rary. Shush; some blood was spilled. Looking back on an i'll spent life and for tune, we join the alleged ma jority, to the contrary. Lets 20!

CARE FOR DISABLED FIRST

There is a great difference of opinion as 10 the adVisa- bility and practicability of 8 Federal Bonus law, but there IS nowhere any disagreement as to the desirability of pro- mpt, adequate and generous provision for the disabled veterans of the war. It is not only the duty but will be
 the high privilege of the peo- pie of the United States to provide hospital care for the sick and injured, ,rehabilitat- ion for the crippled and vo- cational training for those not capable of making a liV- ing. All this the people of the country want done in no spirit of parsimony or re- luctance but in the most friendly and gr teful manner and they will have no pa tnience with any officer of the government who mis- treats the veterans com mitted to his care. The of Gcer of a Southern hospital and vocational training camp who dismiss the members of a protesting committee and who referred to them as
 nuts" has no proper place in the government service.
 He is entirely out of touch with the spirit of the nation and should be displaced at once. It is altogether like ly that some of the sick or injured soldiers are irritable restless, and trying upon the patience of those who have over them. But that must be expected. They have been through war, and war is hell. The officer who can not handle such men has no place at the head of an in- stitution maintained for their care and rehabilitation.

FLYNN IN ACCIDENT
 LOSES BOTH FEET

A freight train crushed both feet of o. T. Flynn Tuesday of this week at a station just the other side of Flagstaff.
 Flynn it seems was cross ing the track when the train backed up faster than he ex- pected. The conductor on the freight tied tight band ages around each leg to stop the flow of blood and started to Flagstaff with him.
 At the hospital in Flag staff it was found necessary to amputate one foot just below the ankle and the other just above the ankle.
 Owing to the loss of blood there is some doubt as to whether he will recover.
 Martin Hamilton upon hearing of the accident went to Flagstaff to do what he could for the wounded man. County Miner.

WHAT'S YOUR POLICY?

Are you doing business, or treating the man who may be working for you, on the army and navy plan? By that we mean, if he offers a sug- ges.ion abut the business do you upbraid him for it as though he dared to know more than a superior officer? Or if he tells someone else that he thinks the business should be conducted in a diff ferent way, do you call him Ion the carpet for daring to criticise the one in com mand?
 As a general rule we find d0lbrook men who employ help are very thoughtful of them. But occasionally we hear of a man who is ac- tually so blind to his own in- terests as to refuse to accept a good suggestion from an employe. He appears to feel that if he did so it would, in a way, show that someone knew as much about the business as he does. That hateful thing called "pride" is usually back of this.
 It is a good idea to re- member that there is still a lot of truth in the old state ment that two heads are bet ter than one. And it is also very well to try and be big enough to accept with thanks a good suggestion from any one, whether they work for you or not, and to show that you know how to appreciate the interest of anyone who takes an interest in your business affairs and your business success.
 The really big men of this country today owe a large part of their success to sug- gestions and examples se- cured by others, which they were smart enough to take ID and use in connection with their own ideas.

BASE BALL HOLBR00K WINSLOW

"Them as has, gifts; and them what ain't loses what they got. Other than an overwhelming conceit, Win slow ball players failed to make a display. And oh boy; the Hobrook team proceeded to take that away. Through out the game, heavy hitting was the feature. Five home runs three to Winslow, ma- terially added to the excite ment and the score. Sixteen clean hits were made by both teams. Lady Luck, ever tickle, rooted for each with admirable impartiality Sat isfactorilly have we proved that the local team is the best in Northern Arizona. Come one, come all, we'll take you to a cleaning.

 Capp on first was a strength eninp feature whom we could i'll afford to lose. At bat he receives credit for our two home runs, one of which was made while two of his play mates occupied bases. Buck les behind the bat, was un- able to make a misplay. His pegs to second were super lative. Herewith we predict that the brand of ball played by this seventeen year old athlete guarantees his ap- pearance in the "big time. Thompson's seeming ease at second discounts many a difficult put out. That boy sure shows big in the box score. At short Crumley tri- ed for everything in his ter ritory; but the condition of the infield plus a new posit- ion, caused two errors. Arn- old Lee at third was some what nervous. For a fifteen year old boy, however, he certainly shows class. Three hits out of five times at bat is a far from slouchy offens- i've. In the field, LoWery had very little to do, but at bat he was a .500 man. Center field was much debated, but happily Engle was appointed thereto. Five putouts result ed from this decision ofman- agemant, and 1t was evident that the right man was on the job. 'fOld Reliable" Gaumnitz ably cared for the right garden.
