UIEUn ~ UUl EIIIUIi
MESA, Feb. 7.-Plans and ar
rangements are fast shaping for the
sociability run Of Mesa citizens Of
Mesa to Superior on next Sunday

trict chamber of commerce. After
two weeks preparations on the event.
the board of directors is now con-
cluding the final details for the
days outing and a live, interesting
and enpoyable time is promised to
all who participate in the run.
The presence in Superior during
the past few weeks OF many of the
big chiefs OF the copper industry has
given Superior residents encourage
ment and strengthened belief that
the mines will resume in that dis
trict before long. A Mesa citizen
who was in Superior last week
states that while no move has been
made yet. all indications point to
an early resumption of mining activ-
tiles there.
The sociability run OF Mesa citi-
zens to the mining camp viii afford
residents of the two communities an
opportunity to become acquainted
That is the prime object in the run
and the days program now being
prepared will tend to that end.
No set time will be established for
leaving Mesa Sunday morning. but
1t is expected that many parties will
get out early in order to travel a
few miles over the popular new high
way between Superior and Miami
while there. Superior restaurants
will be prepared to serve the motor
parties, while some are arranging to
take their picnic dinners with them.
The club house IN Superior will be
made available for entertainment
and the afternoon will be given over
to speaking and other events.
No estimates are available on how
many will participate in the run, but
directors of the chamber of COM
merce, who are handling the ar
rangements for the event, state near
ly everybody they talk to is going.
