 PUT ON SYSTEM

Scout MasterS H. c. Phelps, Marsh Smith, Louis Bunte, and w. E. Peterson met with the Scout Executive at the Yavapai Club yes terday where the latter entertained at luncheon. Plans were adopted setting in moton the splendid pro- gram of scout activities which will continue through the winter The following types of meeting will fea- ture the gatherings of the scouts, it being believed that such a pro gram provides for the broadest de- velopments possible.
 The first week in every month will be given over to instruction in scout tests. Each troop will be divided into sections, and each secton will reeve thorough instruction in one branch of scout work, with certain periods set aside in which the en- tire troops will study or review some object of major importance.
 The second week will be given over to model building and patrol competition will be developed in or der to stimulate interest. "Efficien- cy" will be the watchword in this as n other scout activities for the winter, and two months time will be devoted to the study of each model. Birdhouses will be construc- ted during November and Decem- Der, and bridges during January and February
 The third week will be devoted to the giving of examinations in vari- ous phases of scout study
 The fourth week is one of the most important of the entire pro gram for 1t devoted to the social life of the different troops Many things have been planned to make the social evenings and outdoor meetings thoroughly enjoyable, some of them being patrol competitions, talks and songs by outside talent, storytelling and stunts, entertain ment by the scout orchestra, and displays of models. Once each quarter rally will be given at some central place. with special programs and prizes to enliven the interest.
 Each troop program will be car ried forward under an approved plan which was adopted at yester- days luncheon. Briefly the pro gram is as follows; Formal open ing; transaction of business; gener- al instruction; special feature; roll call and collection of dues; and gen eral assembly. This program wll, of course only be followed at the first three meetings of each month. A complete program, containing all outline of the method in which each phase of the meeting will be car cied on will soon be available.

OBTAIN CLEAR RADIO
 ON GROWN KING PEAK

There must be something favorable Ito radio reception on a high mouu- tain. At least it seems so from the the unusual clearness and range of radio interruptions established at the Crown King mine by Bert Savage and Frank Wilburn.
 D. M. Locey, manager of inc mine, had a set installed and on it's test, it received concerts and messages from Atlanta, Detroit, Denver, Salt Lake, San Francisco, Montana Los Angc- les. San Diego and other points.
 The elevation of the Crown King mine is about 6,sOO feet above sea Ielel.

CONTRACT LET ID CLEAR AREA
 IF RESERVOIR

Sid Birch last night was awarded the contract for clearing the bed of Lthe Banning Creek reservoir. His bid of $86 an acre was accepted by the city council after comparison with two other bids of $1OO and $19O an acre, respectively.
 The reservoir site formed the topic of quite a discussion at the council meeting. With s. P. Gillis making good progress on the dam, it is be- ginning to be time to consider the rest of the big water supply project
 Forest Supervisor Wales sent in a letter to the council, setting forth the manner i'll which the forest serv- ice co-operates with a municipality in keeping its water supply clear. All of the watershed for this reservoir is on forest service land. The govern ment sees to it that pollution is pre- vented, and in conjunction with the city, polices the forest area draining into the reservoir.
 The work of cleaning up the actual reservoir bed is of great importance. All vegetation is to be cleared off and every possible source of decay will be removed and the ground sterilized

PONIE BEAL BUYS FINE
BOAR TO HEAD HIS HERT

Ponie Beal, of Albany, breeder of
fine pure-bred Poland China hogs,
has at last found the boar he want
ed to head his fine herd. He bought
him here last Saturday at the hog
show from his former owner near
Caddo. The price was not disclosed
but was said to be very high, as
prices go in this section.
The boar is Orange Giant No. 49,
532. He is by Supremis, one of the
best sons of Lester Glover's LIBERIA
tor. The dam of this young boar is
Sunkist by Macs Big Orange, the
sire of the Yankee, which stands out
as the boar sold in Iowa for the high
est price ever paid for one of his
breed.
Mr.. Beal regards himself as for
tunate in being able to purchase such
a fine animal to head his herd and
we may expect his hogs to grow in
to much prominence.

WILL

Robinson Himself Knows Defeat Is
Certain. Will Probably Offer His
Amendments As A Reservation.

Washington, March 14-Supporters
of the four power Pacific treaty will
win the first skirmish in the senate
late today. Senator Robinson's amend
ment to the treaty will be rejected. In
the first vote on the treaty, admins
tration forces will have such a clear
advantage that Robinson himself
knows defeat is certain. The vote will
be taken after four hours of debate.
Up to today rival claims have been
unsupported by anything more tan
gible than official polls taken by the
leaders on both sides. This vote will
not however, be decisive as to the
strength of the anti-treaty forces for
some senators who would vote not to
amend the text of the treaty, will
vote against ratification if adequate
reservations are not later adopted.
Robinson will seek the votes of the
senators later by offering his amend
ments as reservations.
