PARIS MOVING VANS ARE BUSY;

ANNUAL CHANGES OF TENANCY

With the coming of the first OF
october moving practically every.

residents being anxious to get set
tied in permanent quarters before the
approach of cold weather For the
past month there has been much
moving in Paris, many exchanges of
homes, some changing hands, some
recently completed for their owners,
some receiving new renters. Few
streets of the town but have made
some residential changes the past
few weeks.

FIELDS ARE NOW
CLEAR OF TOBACCO
Weather Past Week Has Enabled
Farmers To Finish Cutting
and Housing Crop.
(By w. B. Kennedy

The past week has been more
favorable for cutting and housins
the new crop and there is very little
left standing in the field Not over
weather for the past few days gave
the farmers some scare and some to-
bacco was cut that should have re-
mained in the field longer, but the
greater part of it went in the house
well matured and should make good
useful stock. The crop Is very
sappy and hard to cure, and most
of it is curing a dark color 1t is
difficult to judge of the quality but
no doubt we will have a large per
cent of very useful leaf running on
the dark and heavy side. There is
no doubt that a large part of the
later cuttings will be rough and con-
tain considerable bony and rough
leaf but we think takinG the crop
through that it is the best one we
have had for years and while the
acreage is very short, the yield will
be good, and we think the Western
District crop will run around 60
million pounds.
The past week has been 1uiet
one in tobacco circles. With the old
crop practically out of the way and
dealers making preparations for
handling the new crop,
The Planters Association have sold
about -75 hhds. of leaf this week
mainly of the low and common
grades selling at 10 to Is cents, The
better grades of the 1913 crop bav
ing practically all been sold. lnde-
pendent packers have also made
some small sales of the 1920 crop,
the greater part of which was me
dunn and good leaf selling at Is to
25 cents.
The stocks of hhd tobacco are
light, The association has some
1000 hhds, of lugs and leaf, while
independent dealers over the district
probably have something like 1000
hhds. most of which is lugs and low
leaf Owing to the inferior stocks
and lack of good tobacco sales are
light and will be until there Is more
demand for the low and common
grades.

Number of Converts as Door
Of Church Is Opened
For Members.
Sunday Night Sermon On
Modern Evils AS
Exist Here.
Evangelist Norman Guice Is
Interesting Audiences
At M. E. Church.

Interest in the revival campaign
now in its second week of progress
at the First Methodist Church, con.
tinues unabated. The attendance at
the daily services, both morning and
evening, remains constantly good,
and is growing at every service.
Rev. Norman Guice, evangelist, is
awakening the better spirit of the
community to a fuller and more
earnest Christian life by his able
gospel sermons.
During these first two weeks of
the meeting, there have been fif-
teen converts, most of them from
the Sunday School, young boys and
girls, to whom early the Christian
call has come, and whom parents
and friends are anxious to rear
within the church environs
At the Sunday evening service, for
which the other denominations of the
town dismissed that all the churches
might cooperate in this one big SER
vice, the attendance was larger than
it had been previously. An interest
ing feature of the Saturday evening
service was the song by the chill
drens' choir. On Tuesday night,
when Rev. Guice talked to the high
school boys and girls on the text,
THE Wages OF Sin is Death, But
the Gift of God is Eternal Life" one
hundred and fifty high school stu
dents were seated in one body, and
seriously and earnestly received the
strong revival message.
Rev, Guioe's evangelistical sermon
subjects are well chosen and far
reaching. On last Saturday night
he spoke on The Three Resurrec-
tions" using for the three, the resur-
rection of the child, of the young
Rob God?" was forcibly discussed
Sunday morning. Sunday afternoon,
the text of the special service for
women and girls was, "She Hath
Done What She Could"
The sermon Sunday night on
"Worldliness' dealt with the so
called social vices, card playing, dane
ing, night joy riding, drinking, gamb-
ling, and was the nearest approach
to sensational revival sermon that
Rev. Guice has delivered. The evan
gelist made a strong appeal for the
abolition of worldliness from Chris
tian life.
A favorable index to the general
interest that the revival is creating is
the continued good attendance at the
morning services, On Monday morn.
ing, Rev. Guice concluded a series
of services on prayer, and is now
talking each morning on Christian
works.
The revival campaign will continue
throughout this week and next.
Service announcements for next week
however, have not yet been made

Other Matters Taken
Tn By Council.


Many other matters were taken up
during the three-hour session of the
council Tuesday night, when all
members were present except c. B.
Alden, who is absent in California.
The appropriation of $7S2.50 asked
for by the board of public works
was allowed-this being about one
half what they have been asking for,
but word had reached the board the
day before that the council was
welding the AK and cutting expenses
to a minimum for the remainder of
the fiscal year. Bills payable to the
amount of $3,537.36 We're authorized
paid, $25 was appropriated the
Maplewood Cemetery to help defray
the expense of a sexton for the re-
mainder of october. According to
the financial report, $4,000 more
money would be needed than was
on hand in the treasury to get
through October, and this amount
was authorized borrowed from local
banks, which will make the total
amount borrowed since the begin
ming of the fiscal year of $19,500,
leaving a balance of $6,500 which
can yet be borrowed from local
banks to run up until next April,
The position of third officer on
the police was abolished for the
winter months, in the retrenehment
proceedings and general instructions
issued to cut expense in every de-
partment to the lowest possible min
imum consistent with safe operations
and economical maintenance.

 Must Go After Money
 "A general recognition of Arizona conditions will be essential to bring full share of the pool money to this state" he continued The bankers end. If the banks go after the money with heart and soul, then stockmen ot the state can look for ward to full participation in the ben efits accuring from operation of the pool"
 Ground work for operation of the pool in Arizona was laid by Charles E.. Walker ol Tucson in a recent easter trip, it is stated. The plan will be furthered by H. J. McClung, president of the Phoenix National bank, who is planning trip to Chi cago in behalf of Arizona stockmen. There IS other evidence, Mir. Schnei- der said, that bankers generally throughout the state will lend every assistance to the Arizona advisory board.
 Officers of the cattle growers asso- citation are also actively at work on the pool Henry Boice, acting presi dent of the organization, is devotine his entire time to the cattle interests Sheepmen are also keenly alive to the advantages offered through operation of the pool and are hard at work.

Arizona's share in this $50, 900 900 pool, formed for the specific purpose of tiding stockmen over the present crisis, depends largely upon the atti- tude of state bankers, officers of the cattle growers, association said. It l is bankers pool and judgment of bankers in the different localities l will be followed by the Chicago board in the distribution of all sums, it is expected.

Boy Scouts of Valley Leave
 Tomorrow For Camp At Payson

Early tomorrow morning a train of motor trucks carrying approximately 250 Boy Scouts will begin the long trip across the desert, over the pie turesque Apache Trail and into the scenic wonder country of Payson, where camp will be pitched for a ten days outing.
 Phoenix will send a comparatively small contingent of about 50 boys. but approximately 200 more will come from Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert and Lehi.
 Game Warden Joe Prochaska said yesterday that Scouts who present themselves today will be given favor able consideration regardless of their financial condition.
 Tt is unfortunate," he said, that the boys most in need of an outing appear to be barred because of not having the required $15 for expenses. which is assessed against each of the campers. It was not desired nor ex- pected that the parents of the boys should give them this money. Most of those going on the trip have earned the fee by their own efforts. That is an explanation of the many soft drink stands with which the city has been dotted this summer
 Mesa organized the Apache coun- cil and moved preparations for the camp along with energy. Final in- structions were given out there Sat- | urday. The Phoenix scouts will join 1 the scouts at Mesa early tomorrow morning, and the start for Roosevelt dam. the end of the first days jour ney. will begin about o'clock.
Arizona republican., 1921-08-07

Guides we'll versed in nature lore will make the trip with the boys and point out to them the various inter esting growths and formations along the route. Every boy will carry a note book to jot down this informa- ton so that they may gain more than mere passing pleasure from the trip. Frequent stops for preparation of meals or short explorations enroute will be made
 Tomorrow night will be spent at Roosevelt dam and the scouts are scheduled to arrive at camp Tuesday night. The camp is ideally located near the East Verde river. Included in the encampment program are sev- eral long hikes to the many points of interest surrounding the camp site. Arrangements have also been made for the boys to attend the Payson Frontier Days celebration this week. Besides scout officials and guar dians the boys will, in several cases, be accompanied by their fathers. Any parent of scout is eligible for | the trip upon payment of the $15 | fee. which covers all expenses.
 Constant wireless communication will be maintSined between the camp and Phoenix by means of apparatus which has just been received from Los Angeles and which has a guar anteed radius of 150 miles, It will probably send and receive for. much greater distance. There are several | wireless stations in Phoenix equipped | to pick up messages sent from the
 camp and other points.
