GAME wARDEN's JOB UNDER FIRE


 Determined efforts to secure the re- moval of Joe V. Prochaska, state game warden, which has been brewing for several months past, will boil over in the form of a published attack in a Miami newspaper, according to re- ports in newspaper circles at Phoe- nix. Sensational charges are expect ed. During the past few weeks tre- mendous pressure has been brought to bear on the chief executive by enemies of the game warden, both in and out of the party
 The matter would have been aired at the recent meeting of the republi- can committee, but for skillful hand ling and assurance that the situation could be bridged by diplomacy. Pro- chaska is apparently indifferent as to the outcome.
 Before the first of the year." he said, "I filed my resignation with the governor. It has not been accepted. I am ready to step down and out with out a question whenever it is the opin- ion of the governor that the game de- partment has not been conducted prop erly. These attacks have been fo- mented by personal enemies and they do not trouble me in the slightest"

LAPS UNPOPULAR IN
 PHILIPPINES BURRIS SAYS

George Burris, general superinten- dent of the Navajo reservation, has been here few days from his head quarters at Tuba City, overseeing the forwarding of several loads of cement to Moenkopi wash, which is to be damned for irrigation purposes.
 Mir. Burris has seen pretty much ot the world. Born in Louisiana, he was in the Indian service in the northwest and in California before coming to Arizona, and before that had a re- sponsible government position in the Philippine Islands.
 He is enthusiastic over the innate qualities of good citizenship of the Filipinos. He says they cannot build there fast enough. They are a very cleanly people, bathing every day Once educated they do not revert to tribal customs, as the Indians do.
 The roads there are perfect. Each worker has few miles of road, There are several workers under foreman. Each foreman gives yearly bonus to the man doing the best work. The best foreman also gets an annual bonus.
 Sanitary conditions are looked after in the most exacting manner. Mir. Burris told how his wife ran up against the inspector, or "sanitario." He came to their house just after they moved in, asking to be allowed to in- spect the kitchen. She refused. The next day he came back. She reluct- antly admitted him. Naturally, hay ing so recently moved in, there was some confusion. He looked at the kitchen floor and wrote on a card, "Dirty." She erased the word. Then he wrote on it, "Very dirty" and re- ported it.
 There is no chance of Japan get ting any foothold in the Philippines by colonization, as they have in Cali fornia, Mir. Burris says. Neither the Filipinos nor the Chinese--of whom there are many who have intermar- ried with the natives-like the Japs, They won't patronize them. So there are only few there, most of them small merchants.
 It will be a surprise to most people to learn that the area of the Philip pines exceeds that of Japan.

EPISCOPAL CHURCH SERVICE

Attendance at the II o'clock serv- ice of this church continues to in crease every Sunday morning. This, of itself, is a strong encouragement to those who have the welfare of the church at heart. The truth is, after all, that the simple, quiet, spiritual ser vice of this church is bound to appeal to thoughtful, sincere men and wo- men in Flagstaff as it has elsewhere. If you are seeking to find a church whose worship is uplifting, talk with those who attend the Church of the Epiphany, and then come and see for yourself. We need your presence and the encouragement of your good will and hearty cooperation. You will find geneuine welcome awaiting you.
 Besides the main service each Sun- day morning at II o'clock, Holy com munion is administered at a. m. and the Sunday school opens at 10.

CLARK SAYS PRICES ARE
 BOUND TO RISE AGAIN

John M. Clark is one of several merchants-and their number is stead fly increasing-who do not believe that the prices of clothing and most other commodities will drop much below the present level
 MT. Clark says that we are in the midst of the greatest strike the world has ever known-a strike of the whole people-against buying.
 Undoubtedly, the reason for the strike is the universal belief that all classes of goods are about to decline marvelously in price. That this will not and cannot. come about, is Mir Clark's belief, founded on the belief that there is no over production. Ii was only few months ago that man. ufacturers were turning down orders even neglecting toobe courteous about it. It is impossible, Mir. Clark says especially as so many of the factories in practically every line are shut down or running on part time, that there now are more goods on hand than needed.
 The failure of the public, he be- lieves, to buy now according to its de- sires, causing as it does, the shutting down of factories, will cause prices to again go up. Because, when the pub lie lets go again, and resumes buying it will in short order clean up the scant supplies now on hand.
 Prices largely depend upon de- mand. When the demand comes back to normal, prices will react upward. Therefore, if MT. Clark's line of req soning is right, people should buy the things they need now, rather than wait until later, when there is fair chance they will have to pay more.

Palm Sunday
Duly Observed.

Last Sunday was Palm Sun
day and was duly observed at
st Joseph Catholic Church, as
we'll as all Of the other Catholic
churches in the parish, and the
universe. Preceding the high
mass the benediction of the
palms" was held, commemora-
ting the triumphal and glorious
entry of the 'Nazarene" into Je-
rusalem. The palms blessed are
one of the evidences of faith, and
sacramentals practiced by these
protesting the faith.
This week religious services
were held commemorative of the
days. Thursday commemorated
the last supper of "Our Lord
and the Sacrament was exposed
all day to the alteration Of the
faithful who kept vigil from
Thursday morning until the ser
vices Friday morning. Commit
tees changing throughout the
evening.
On Friday, yesterday "Good
Friday" marked, and commemo-
rated the crucifixion Of the ''Re-
deemer" of mankind, with the
services in the morning, and
the ''Way Of the Cross" in the
afternoon.
The services of to day will
wind up the lenten season, with
mass and the Benediction of the
water and oils, the faithful sup
plying themselves with '"holy
water"-for use in the homes on
appropriate occasions, the oils
used by the Church in its minis
trations of the sacraments.
To morrow is Easter, the glo-
rious resurrection of the Lord"
and is marked with the services
obtaining on Sunday and offices
in keeping with the solemnity Of
the occasion.

PECULIAR ACCIDENT.

On last Sunday morning, just
before the hour of early mass,
Mr.. Henry Lejeune was the vic
tim of what might have been a
fatal accident, but as uncomfor-
table and disagreeable as it was,
he could have Jared worse than
he did. Standing in conversation
waiting the hour of mass, a
branch dropped from one of the
oak trees, and hit him on the
head, making a cash in his head,
lit bled profusely. At
tention was attracted
by the commotion caused, and he
was taken to town where the
wound was dressed. He was not
unconscious, and outside of be-
ing inconvenienced by bleeding
.profusely, the after effects were
not alarming, or disagreeable.
The accident is accounted for in
this way. Some branch broke af-
ter it rotted away, and not be-
ing observed, simply remained
entangled in the other branches,
falling at that time of its own
momentum. That it should have
fallen at this time, and in this
particular place, is no more re-
markable than if it had fallen az
any other time or any other
place.
