Silent Voices
By MRS. o. c. WoMACK
*+*+++++++*+++++ |

Out in this great western country so much alone with nature, we are learning more each day to love and appreciate the silent forces, the hand iwork of God. And we wonder why, yet we know it is true, that the worlds greatest forces are silent and unperceived. They operate unnoticed and yet with resistless power.
 A child's tin horn makes more noise than the attraction of gravitation, which binds the whole universe as with chains of adamant. but works so quietly that it was thousands of years before man discovered it's exist ence. A babbling brook, or little fountain throwing it's jet into the air. attracts more attention than the hidden forces of nature which draw millions of tons of water from the earth beneath and spreads it out in herbage and foliage, clothing the fields with beauty, crowning the for ests with green, and diffusing fertil- ity and life through all the land. The forces of vegetation are silent. No lightning flashes to herald the swell ing buds; no thunder peals to tell us when the flowers unfold in their fragrant beauty; no trumpets are blown when Spring filings her leafy banners to the breeze, but in the sun shine of the day, and the silence of the night the work of nature goes noiselesslv on until the desert blos- soms as the rose and the wilderness becomes fair as Eden's garden.
 God, who works thus silently in the kingdom of nature, also works in quiet in our lives. Christ, the master work CT, did not strive nor cry nor cause his voice to be heard in the streets
 Some of the grandest changes that have revolutionized society have been the product of secret causes working unnoticed and unknown. and bringing to pass the most wonderful events.
 A copy of the word of God planted in benighted neighborhood. or a single text impressed upon the mind of child, has often produced results which no amount of noisy and tumult- uous effort could attain. The seed must be cast into the ground and abide in darkness and in silence there, but in due time God. who gives the increase. brings it forth in growth, beauty and fruitfulness. So we can take courape then if we are called to work in silence umoticed and un- known. And let us be careful not to judge others, whose quiet, unpreten- tious labors may he far more success ful in ultimate results than the works of those whose crawling clamor makes them the observed of all observers.

More evidence that world war vet erans have the "never-say-die" spirit was shown when Leonard T. Paulu of Grinnell College, Iowa, with leg badly maimed by shrapnel wounds broke the 100 and 220 yard dash rec ords in an intercollegiate track meet held in Chicago. Many days of stren- uous training with his comrades of the American Legion put Paulu in trim for the event His stride with his left leg is four inches longer than with his right.

 BOULDER CANYON PROJECT

Vigorous opposition to the proposed S70,000,000 Boulder Canyon dam proj- ect, to be constructed on the Cobra do river, was forecast when Mayor Bailey, of Denver, wired the irriga- tion committee of the house, asking that no action be taken on the matter for the present.

Salads are not modern dishes; the old Romans used endive covered with oil and strewn with minced onion, the whole covered with honey and vine, gar. Leaves of mustard, cress, endive and lettuce are the common bases for most salads. When these greens are not obtainable, apples, oranges, grape. fruit, peppers and tomatoes are useo for receptacles, with sprig of eel. cry leaf or parsley for bit of green
 The thrifty housewife always keeps jar of salad dressing of some kind on hand; it may be the nutty mayon' naise prepared from the best olive oii or the cheaper corn oil, or 1t may be boiled dressing. With the salad dressing made and ready, salad is but the work of a few mo. ments. There are still masculine members of the family who re fuse to eat green salads If they could be persuaded to learn that such food is healthful, provides the neces- sary elements which keep the body in good working order, and that even to eat salad as medicine they would soon learn to enjoy 1t; it would save many hours of suffering.
 When celery is called for, and not on hand, bit of apple and cabbage, with celery salt, will do very we'll.
 A well-made salad will give tone and substance to an otherwise slim meal, and by combining in proper quantities. and tasting, and again tast- ing, dish of distinction may be achieved.
 A can of choice salmon, with half. cupful of coconut and few spoonfuls of chopped pickle. is another quick to-prepare salad. Serve 1t in lettuce with bit of boiled dressing or may onnaisA

Women's Club Convention Will Nnt Meet at Grand Canyon.

"oNlNh Ntup W 'h' Not Meet at Grand Canyon.
 Mrs. T. H. Cureton, president of the Arizona State Federation of Wo- mems clubs and now attending the national convention of women's clubs at Chautauqua, was disappointed in her attempt to have the 1923 council meeting held in Arizona. Mrs. Cure ton made a strong appeal for the meeting, detailing the advantages of the state and the beauties of the Grand Canyon, and though unsuccess- ful in her efforts, gained the good will of the entire convention by her work.
 Los Angeles was chosen as the bi- ennial meeting place for the council in 1924, during which time the dele gates will avail themselves of the hospitality extended them by Ari- zona's federation to view the grand CUTS of the canyon. Atlanta, Ga, won the council meeting for the next year.

 Peaches" Hook and
 Bride Charivaried.
 One of the unannounced preliminar- ies to Flagstaff's great Fourth of July celebration was successfully car ried out on Sunday night at 10:30, when a large number of friends of Mir. and Mrs. Peaches" Remigius Hook gave them a rousing impromptu charivari, after their honeymoon trip to Tucson, Phoenix, Prescott, Williams and the Grand Canyon.
 The dish-pan serenaders, who arriv- ed in automobiles, had an extremely ulIllCuIJ lllle III lOCdIiilS IHe ElOChS, and looked for them throughout the town, after they were unsuccessful in finding them at their North Hum phrey street home. Finally they re- turned, and after a more thorough search located Peaches" in the closet, but Mrs. Hook eluded the persistent pursuer, finding refuge in Mrs. Hyde's home.
 The following is said to be the line up of the various committees:
 Marshal-Louis Kelly.
 Committee of arrangements-Dr A. J. Mackey, Clarence Pulliam, F. A.. Chisholm, Bob Mitchell, Ed Babbitt, Bill McClurken.
 Search and refreshment commit tee-J. D. Jackson, Captain Arthur, Ted LeBarron, Clarence Johnson, Err nest Yost.
 According to all reports, these com mittees, which were self-appointed, did very effective work, and were re- warded for their zeal at the Confec- tion Den by Peaches, who, with Mar shal Kelly, led loud and enthusiastic parade through the different streets of the city.
 The Hooks were married at Nogales
