Phoenix RepipeS Old Times as
Horse and Buggy Are Stolen

Phoenix jumps into the spotlight
as a city where history repeats it
self.
1t was only a few weeks ago that
the Associated Press gave national
prominence to the fact that a man
in the state of Washington found
when he attt mpted to purchase a
buggy that the supply was practical
Iy depleted. 1t was only after con-
siderable effort on the part of his
friends and himself that he located
one in distant town.
And now Phoenix comes forward
with a report from the sheriff's office
that a horse and buggy was stolen
and recovered last night. The thief
has not been discovered as yet, so the
object in stealing the conveyance and
its hay motor may never be known.
But circumstances point to the con-
clusion that in some heart there still
fingered a yearning for real drive
behind real orse in real buggy.
Black Beauty is the horse that was
stolen. As his name might indicate,
he is black-a beautiful sleek, glossy

holds singular place in fond MEM

ming meal. He glanced out of the
window owaid the place where the
horse and buggy had been parked.
He began to register surprise, some
might say anguish. The horse and
buggy had disappeared.
Smith quickly notified the police
and the sheriff's office and then
called William S. Clark, operator at
the Columbia theater. Clark remem-
bered well the attractive and well ed

horse to stand without hitching at
any place left. and Black Beauty was
true to his training. The horse was

$3.50 o'cle ok last night and Smith was
notified, in answer TO his long dis

was following a phantom trail, that
his horse was awaiting him there.
When Smith arrived at the sher-
iffs office he abandoned his auto
mobile and drove home in the buggy
behind Black Beauty.

CELEbRAT T|ON AIDS IN
BIG RUSH To JOIN
MARKETING ASSNS.

Victory Day by the Maricopa
County Farm Bureau imbued ranch
ers of the valley with the spirit of
cooperation, judging from the num-
Der of signed contracts in the hay,
grain, dairy and cotton associations
received at farm bureau head
quarters in the Berryhill building
yesterday Dozens of signed con-
tracts were filed during the day,
while hundreds of others made IN
quiry concerning operation of the
commodity organizations.
The farm bureau celebration of
Thursday served a three-fold pur-
pose, Fred TAFT, president of the
county organization, declared yes
farmers of the valley together Tor
a day of fun and relaxation; next
it had a tendency to establish closer
relationship between the many farm
industries of the community, and
thirdly to spread the doctrine OF
co-opera ton as it relates to the
farmer and the marketing OF his
products.
Members of the farm bureau were
highly elated over the success of
the Undertaking. Appreciation OF
the bureau for the assistance given
by the Phoenix chamber of COM
merce is expressed in the following
statement issued by President TAFT:
THE campaign committee of the
farm bureau delegated the publicity
committee to arrange for the bar
becue and celebration. The publicity
committee turned to the Phoenix
chamber of commerce for 'help
realizing the magnitude of the work
in prospect and believing that
committee of such limited member
ship would be unequal to the task.
THE publicity committee appre-
ciates the spirit of helpfulness given
by the Phoenix chamber OF COM
merce when the latter organization
was invited to take over the task
of arranging the details and man
agement of the barbecue
Assumption OF this responsibility
by the chamber resulted in a special
committee being appointed, headed
by Charles A. Stauffer as chairman
and Leo Weaver as secretary This
committee in turn appointed several
sub committees, including barbe-
cue committee headed by George
Mickle and an entertainment COM
mittee headed by Dave Goldberg.
I'm the stress of the farm bureau
drive to organize the farmers of
the valley into four cooperative
marketing associations, the publicity
committee found itself literally
swamped with work and the COM
mittee, joined by directors and
members of the bureau, wishes to
express its sincere appreciation for
the splendid cooperation of the
Phoenix chamber of commerce,
which organization always has en-
deavored to bring about improve
ments in the agricultural conditions
of Maricopa county"

THE first gun Of this attack was

usurped power of investigating any
