BARNES SCHOOL BAND

Prof. George Barnes has or ganized a school band again. He now has about twenty mem bers, including several girls. Most of the instruments have arrived and the band will soon be down to hard work. Most of the members are beginners and it will take some time to get them in shape for a public concert.
 Williams has greatly missed the Barnes band during the past few years. Many were the delightful concerts which the residents of the town were permitted to enjoy a few years past. The organization of the new band is good news. May the new band rival the former band in musical accomplish ment.

HOW TO PLANT TREES

I have 1000 seedling box elder trees at my ranch here in Williams that I am giving away l want each person to get 10 of these trees and plant them any time durng the month of April. If there are trees left after the fifteenth of April you may have more trees in addition to your ten.
 I suggest the following in- structlons for planting: 1. When you come for the trees bring grain sack and wet it at my cistern and wrap it around the roots of the trees to keep them moist till you plant them.
 2. Dig a hole about two feet in diameter and two feet deep then throw in top dirt till the hole is the right depth for the tree which should be about two inches deeper than they grew in the nursery.
 3. Then throw in top dirt till the roots are we'll covered. 4. Next throw in a bucket of water and let it settle. 5. Fill the hole level with the ground with top dirt. 6. Put some trash around the tree to hold the moisture.
 Yours truly,
 T. H. Cureton.

ALL SAW MILLS OPEN
 UP; GOOD TIMES BACK

We don't mind the noise, dc we? The noise made by busy saw mills?
 started their sawmill running g full time on Tuesday, and pres ent indications seem favorable to it's keeping right on during g the summer. The box factory has been running to capacity for some weeks now.
 The Arizona Lumber & Tim Der Go. will start on full time tomorrow. Logs are being hauled now to feed the big saws. This company expects to start their Greenlaw mill some time between the middle and last of April.
 This is the best news the Sun prints this week or has printed for many weeks. It IS news that means much in the way of properity to Flagstaff, not only to the hundreds to whom the opening of the mills means steady employment, and to their families, many of whom would have suffered during the last few months but for the pub- lie spirit of the lumber compan- ies III letting them have neces- sites on credit; but it means greater prosperity for our mer- chants, who have missed and mourned the steady stream of cash trade that comes from the lumber employees.
 Now, forgetting prophecies and hopes of better times this summer, we can be sure of bet ter times. The lumber activ- itjes, supplemented by better conditions in the sheep business and the pospect for lot of em- ployment in this summers ex- tenslve paving program will bring Flagstaff, which, while it was never as much hurt by the business depression as practi- cally every other town in the state, nevertheless was hard hit, back to a condition almost nor mal.-Sun.

ARIZONA CHILDREN'S
 HOME AT TUCSON

Not an institution of cold
 bleak walls and cheerless rooms
 where the pitiful lot of the or
 plan is suggested, and an ai1 of forlorn pathos permeats, but
 a home in fact as well as word, is the Arizona Children's Home, out on South Seventh avenue.
 Situated in a wide space
 where there is room for little bodies to grow asd thrive in the sunshine, and where there are possibilities for broad lawns, blooming and fruitful gardens, and acres of cool shade, the big brick building stands, home like even now before these things have materialiZed.
 The grounds are already levelled off, prior to planting grass and on a Saturday morn ing, busy little fellows, armed with rakes almost bigger than they, are scraping away the last pebbles and debris. Others are found planting a row of quick growing f1ags-not a very straight row, it is true, but one symbolical of a child's love of home, and his eagerness to do his part in beautifying his own.
 The Grotto planted no trees out there Washington's birth day, and though there aren't any leaves, yet, and sometimes only a few branches, the score of kiddies are playing beneath them, while others. the older ones, are making tiny veget- ables and flower gardens, an- ticipating aSummer luncheon of fresh peas, and carrots, and greens, and summer dinners of sweet corn and potatoes and even watermelon. The little girls. too, are interested, and are dreaming of great bouquets of blossoms from the seeds which they have lovingly plant ed from gaily decorated enve- lopes marked sweet peas, mas turtiums, cosmos and violets.
 Indoors, on a Saturday morn ing, one sees cool, clean kitchen from which issue delec- tible odors of Saturdays bak- ing. There are little girls here too-'e Ticking pans," watching the oven and ever so often "'Just sampling" the goodies from the cooks larder-all of which is | just like Saturday morning lil any home. isn't it? i
 Adjoining the kitchen there is a sunny dining room, filled with white covered tables and chairs all drawn up for lunch. This room has clean, cheerful walls, and even pictures of luscious fruit and other things to please the childish ! vision.
 From the dining room one goes into the living room, and here, above all, is the home at mosphere found. There is a huge fireplace at one end, and a mantel adorned with knick- such as any thoughtful mother might have placed here. There is a comfy lounge
