GRAND CANAAN FOLKS
 BUST LOOSE

October 31st, the night the witches
 ride their broomsticks, was celebrated
 in manner befitting the occasion by
 the residents of Grand Canyon Will
 lage in great style, at the Harvey
 Company Recreation Hall.
 .- The costumes worn by. those at-
 tending the dance were varied, and
 would take quite some time and space to enumerate or describe. Suffice it to
 say that many of them were grotes-
 que; many beautiful, and it was not iced that two young men in particular washed their faces for the occasion, thereby being almost unrecognizable and almost got prize apiece.
 Four prizes were awarded at the witching hour, midnight. Two of these went to the young ladies and two to the young men,
 "Fat" Harbin, our peerless Assist ant Agent and Cashier for the Grand Canyon Railway at this place, cap tured first prize for the young man in the role and costume of dashing, bold rover of the seas As the poet laureate of the Village "poetedn- "A pirate bold was he, with whiskers on each knee, he was SO fat, that playful, pat, would make one lay down and dee," and by that time he was crowned king of allhe surveyed with brick. This was the only cas- ualty of the evening. The doctors say he will survive. Tough luck.
 It seems as if lady Luck rode with the Harbin family that night, because Fats sister, Helen, copped first prize for the young ladies by appearing as fifteen minutes after Helen arrived at the recreation hall in costume, half dozen hombres were down at the railroad station finding out all they could about railroad and steamship rates to Japan.
 Mrs. Keen as "Gretchenn in a very 1 becoming Dutch costume grabbed off 1 second prize for the yuong ladies. As a blonde, Mrs. Keen is Knockout" $ going to dye her black hair blonde and that Helen is going to dye her blonde hair black. Why can't they 'swop" says we, then they wont have o "dye" before they can get what hey want. +'
 "Mayor" Harrison was presented with the honest-to-goodness real gen. tine cheese-cloth saddle and the sec- nd prize also, he appearing as a mod Tn young happer, rolled socks, red arters n everything. Before he un- masked, we have learned from com etent authority, four young and am itious young men-about-town had aade dates with the "young 1ady".
 Music for the occasion was ably by our Pinon Nut Orches. ra, under the leadership of "Red" -een who swings 8 mean and nasty t ow, and Ray Ames our peerless plan ( 1t, "Bill'' Bass, the marvel on the s axophone, Ed Waterbury, the slid i ,g trombone artist, and our own ( Billie" Joynt, whom we claim as the 8 est trap drummer in the State of i rizona and without a doubt, the j roud possessor of the finest set of a aps west of the Mississippi.
 A splendid repast was set forth o bout 12 80.

HIGH SCHOOL SUPPORTS
 FOOT BALL TEAM

There are some real loyal girls in Williams High School, as shown by the Rooters' Club which has been or ganized recently. They demonstra- ted this fact by the "pep" parade, which took the form of snake dance down main street Friday noon, prior to the Flagstaff Williams foot ball game. The Parade was headed by two boys beating 8 drum, followed by big fellow dressed to represent Flagstaff before the game, and later . small boy dressed to represent Flag staff after the game; namely, crutches bandages, etc.
 Then came the "Rooters" Club, each wearing an orange and black hat, and yelling and singing to the top of their voices. The "pep" was not forgotten after the parade but continued turnout the afternoon, and was one of the principle factors of Williams first foot ball game.

FARMERS OF THE SOUTH
HEADED FOR INDEPENDENCE

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct26-
"The Southern farmer is making hope
full progress in his journey from de-
pendence upon a single money crop,
with its one payday per year at mar
ket time for cotton or tobacco, toward
the independence to be obtained by
the operation of his farm to yield
cash returns turnout the year from
the sale of truck, crops, cattle, hogs,
poultry and dairy products" says
Fairfax Harrison, president of the
Southern Railway Company, in his
annual report which goes on to say:
Zone proof of this progress is found
in report by the United States Btu
reau of Markets that from January /,
1922, to August 10 1922, there were
shipped from the states of North Car
DINA, South Carolina, Georgia, Flor
and Tennessee l07, 298 carloads of cab
bage, canteloupes lettuce, onions,
Strawberries, sweet potatoes, tomatoes
watermelons, Irish potatoes, peaches
and mixed vegetables, compared to
$500 carloads for the same period
the year before, an increase of 1860
carloads or 1880 per cent, and this
showing was made in spite of the fact
that there was a substantial decrease
in production of watermelons and pea
ches because of unfavorable weather
/ conditions.
"Other bits Of evidence of the same
twenty-six new creameries in thhe ter
ritory served by the Southern Rail
way System, large increase in the
production of butter, the raising in
South Georgia of milk fed poultry a
long the lines for many years profit
ably practiced in east Tennessee, the
placing on farms thru-out the territory
of more pure bred poultry than in
any previous year, and the growing of
high grade tobacco in South Carolina
and Georgia.
"The movement OF farm settlers in
to the. South, comparatively light for
several years past, shows signs of in
creasing. Sound and Conservative col
onization projects are being launched
in several localities served by the
Southern Railway System. Lands will
be prepared for farming and offered
on terms which should attract a desir-
able class of farmers from parts of
the States where land prices, measur-
ed by production value, relatively are
much higher than in the South"
