SHR|NERS TO ENJOY
 MULL|GAN TONIGHT

Crack shots of the local Shriners were out in the grain fields yester- day shooting the white wings in prep aration for the big mulligan feed which is to feature a social evening at the Shrine auditorium tonight Numerous limit bags were brought in and it was assured that as far as the necessary ingredients of the mulligan are concerned the affair will be a great success.
 The mulligan is to be served at : D. m. tonight and the nobles are eau toned by Noble St Claire not to eat dinner before they leave for the au- ditorium. that they may the better enjoy the unusual feed prepared.
 A surprise program for the occa- sion has been prepared by Potentate Hanny, one that is said to equal in every way the program of last week, when a record crowd was in attend ance. A feature of the program which is certain to be enjoyed by the nobles will be the singing by Noble Kisselburgh. assisted at the piano by Noble Carpenter and by the Shrine chanters.

Gila County Claims Right To
 Lew Taxes On Roosevelt Dam

association. the title rested with the government and could not be taxed"
 Mir. Howe said that while the mat ter had been brought to his attention it was informally discussed. The placing of the property on the ab- stract of assessment has brought it prominently forward, he said, and will make it a feature of the program at the coming tax meeting.
 While the state and county tax rates have not been fixed he estimates that the tax on the property valued at s2-0o0 900 would not be short of s3o.o0o
 The total assessment of Gila county as furnished in the abstract is given as s143.42S $40.
 Abstracts being received daily from the different counties Santa Cruz shows a gain of over s300,0e0 in val uation over a year ago While the commission has not finished checking the county, the increase in valuation is believed to be in city property, in improvements on town lots and on 1 irrigated lands.
 Covering the smallest area of any county in the state, it's abstract of assessment shows valuation of over s13.0O0.0 900.
Arizona republican., 1921-07-15

Assessing at s2.0o0o0o that portion of the Roosevelt dam which lies In Gila county, that county will attempt to collect in taxes from the Salt River Valley Water Users association ap- proximately s30,0o0.
 This fact became known yesterday with the filing of the abstract or assessment with the state tax com mission and caust.l considera bic com- ment among the tax experts who will take the matter up at he state tax conference to be held in Nogales on July 25.
 The claim is made by Gila county that it lost assessable farming prop erty by the Roosevelt Lake replac- ing farm lands and that it is only fair that the portion in it's county be placed on the assessment roll and taxed to the owners. The county. 1t is understood. anticipates action being taken against it. but proposes to en- force the collection.
 Tt is our opinion that the property is not taxable, said Charles R. Howe, chairman of the state tax commission. 'sGila county officials asked our opinion some time ago and we in- formed them that although the dam was operated and maintained by the

pool is to be donated for the day by Richards and Mace, the owners. who are cooperating with The Republi- can in plans for the picnic. while The Republican is to have complete charge of the party itself.
 Remember the day, Monday, July e5. from F noon. to D. m., and the place, Riverside park, and then re- member also to read The Republican every morning and see what this newspaper has planned for The Re- publican's Children's Picnic" which is to be an honest to goodness, cross my heart party for every boy and girl in the county. And soon you will find in The Republican a coupon, which must be clipped out and brought to the park In fact, it will be good idea to wrap the penny for Uncle Sam in the coupon and hide it away so that you will have no trouble about .either when the picnic Monday arrives.

Irrigation Canals Take Place
 Of Bathing Beach In Phoenix

similar waterfall is to be found at Seventh street. This place proves especially attractive to the youngsters and hundreds of them plunge into the waters there during the day.
 Those who live right along the banks of the canal enjoy the enviable advantage of having a comfortable dressing room conveniently near. Most of the bathers journey to their favorite spot in motor cars. Many of them travel light, wearing only bath ing suits. Others add a bath robe to their costume, while a third class under dress with the bathing suit, over which they put on their regular street attire. Automobiles are con verted into dressing rooms at the canal and the sight of bathing par ties nonchalantly disrobing along the roadside has become so common as to attract little or no attention.
 Outside the city limits there are many places along the various canals which have been equipped with div ing boards. ropes, swings and other paraphernalia which adds enjoyment to water sports. Some of the best of these are to be found out on the Arizona canal. the widest and deepest of the Salt River valley system.
 While the greatest of pleasure may be found in canal bathing there Is also hint of danger there. This was intimated by the board of directors of the chamber of commerce yester day when it passed a resolution to ask Dr. A. M. Tuthill to investigate the sanitary conditions of the canals The police department also has found it necessary to supervise tc some extent bathing in the canals. Ii has placed 10 o'clock D. m. as a time limit when all hands must bt

Mother, may I go swimming

Mother, may I go swimming
 e'.Why, certainly, daughter. Wait until your father comes home and we will all take a plunge into the canal. "
 Mother and daughter, father and son, may all be found splashing about in the cooling waters of the Salt River canal, commonly known as the Town Ditch," almost any evening now. There are regular canal "beaches'' where Phoenicians con- gregate in great numbers daily, while along its length throughout the city can be found little boys and girls. and even quite elderly people find ing the keenest enjoyment in the swift running waters.
 Perhaps the most popular canal re- sort in the entire city is at Fifteenth avenue. Added to the natural attrac- ton of a swimming place is wooded park which offers shade in the day time and soft grassy resting places t all times. There are times when from 300 to 400 find enjoyment in one short stretch of the canal in this vicinity
 As there is practically no restric- tion placed upon the bathing suits used by canal mermaids some start ling revelations in late beach styles are made. Bathing costumes range from bibbed overalls worn by some of the little tots to daring displays of original one-piece designs by the belles of the "Old Town Ditch.'
 Waterfalls along the canal always draw the greater number of bathers. One of the most popular of these falls is at Nineteenth avenue, which is also well shaded, and which be- cause of a concrete aqueduct under the railroad tracks offers a clean and convenient place for the disposal of slippers and bathrobes.
