who by the way did not wake up once during the climb.
 NJ. I.'s car, as we'll as John Yer kamp's, acted as though they wanted to go home, but we leased them along until it finally became necessary for the three young ladies in the rear seat to get out and help push.
 We had not gone far until Johns car again required assistance. We then proceeded up the grade, until we came to where M. I. and Ruth were seated under big pine tree. Ruth said they had no Power. We asked who she was travelling with. M. Is differential had become quite warm so l. B. went over behind big pine tree and procured some peanut butter -greased the differential of M. Is Cad-and we proceeded up the grade.
 We had not gone far until it was decided to transfer Ruth and M. l. into the Little Yellow Peril. In the transfer l. B. slipped on a banana peel and dislocated his wrist and sprung his steering gear, and this made the balance of the trip very hazardous, as he was the only one who knew the way.
 We finally reached Jack Smith Spring and ali partook of the spark ling water that came gushing from the rocks. After eating wild straw berries, gooseberries and hackberries, and drinking little more water, all proceeded to lunch. Loren Cress ate fried chicken, two glasses of jelly, two loaves of bread and twelve cup cakes. His wife, they say, is won derful cook. Bert Cameron was seen going after two chicken legs. Then it rained.
 l. B. then called the meeting to or der, fining M. l., Ray Babbitt, Hugh Wheat and myself-as usual. The la dies sang the first number, and John Verkamp was fined for bringing an imitation of dog. Oh, it was fine nothing but fines. After doing some more singing and fining we bade Jack Smith goodbye, and proceeded down the grade.
 Everyone, in spite of the rain, en- joyed the trip wonderfully-as many had never visited the springs or ever had glimpse of the Painted Desert In all we think the idea was a good one, and great deal of good will be accomplished, as we'll as all enjoying the wonderful outing.
 So it's ho! for life in the open air
 Where the sky is always blue, Where souls are purged of dark
 despair,
 Where hearts beat strong and true. You can talk of the champagne baths,
 and such,
 In the city's gilded fount-- But man grows BIGGER heath na-
 ture's touch,
 And so does his bank account.

w. E. Morgan announced a barn dance and corn roast on September 9 at his ranch. On the following Tues day, three days later, there fell the heaviest rain of the season in Gar land Prairie, which wet the ground thru. Some folks now think that if there had only been dance in the vicinity a month or two earlier, the rains might have fallen, and they would all now have bountiful crops. But then you can't tell what some folks will think anyway.
 It is expected that the graduating exercises at the Maine school house on Saturday night, August 26th, will be attended by large crowd. The exercises will start not later than 8 o'clock, and those wishing to at- tend should be at the school house not later than this. Following the graduating exercises, there will be a good big dance.
 Make ready and go to the poverty or hard times dance and box social at the Red Lake school house on Sat urday night, September 2. Come in your old clothes and bring your best girl, altho there are some girls in Red Lake that are "extra choice" The proceeds from the dance and so- cial will be used in purchasing mus ical instruments for the school chil- dren, who will form the Red Lake orchestra.
 W. F.. Morgan says that barring earthquakes and Bill Williams Noun tain blowing up, he is going to have his barn dance and corn roast on Sat urday night, September 9th, at his ranch in Garland Prairie. Bill has a big barn and a slick floor. There will be prize waltzes, for which there will be suitable gifts for the winners. Also there will be big feed. Bill says he doesn't care how much the folks kick over the traces, just so they don't burn up the barn or carry off the silver spoons.

Last Friday Ranger Arthur Gibson, of Spring Valley, rode to the top of Kendrick Mountain, taking along a pack horse, loaded with supplies for the men working on the Kendrick Mountain trail. He tied the horses outside the cabin during storm that was passing over. However, lightning hit tree right by where the horses were tied and started rolling around in balls upon the ground. This the horses took decided exceptions to, and broke loose and started down the mountain in high. Art has not yet recovered the full use of his legs, as the result of the spurt he made down the mountain to head off the horses. He headed them off, but never ran so hard or fast in his life, which shows that he is getting faster as he grows older. Art does not say how many trees he jumped over, but he can truthfully say that after he headed them off, and got his saddle horse, he found his slicker, which was tied on behind the saddle, slit down the back, end to end.
 A fine big baby was born to MT. and Mrs. Harry Greene of Spring Valley on Monday morning, August Fist.
 In spite of the heaviest rain there has been this season in Government Prairie, there was quite a crowd at the dance at the Neitzling home on Government Prairie last Saturday night. Everybody had good time, as is evidenced by the fact that they danced until the cows came home next morning, and the sun was we'll up be- fore most of the merry-makers re- turned home.

Tom PulllaW ana Joiii Vhc on recalling old-times spoke of the ire quent fires Flagstaff used to nave At that time almost entirely built of wood, without fire protection and with people buying water even for drink inp purposes, when blaze did start 1t usually cleaned out several build ings. A year was uneventful thai did not have its big fire.
 For fire chief we had former Chicago fireman named Bullwlnkle A big blaze was invariably his cue to wire the news abroad, with added particulars about the devastation and suffering, the sorrow and homeless. ness of the survivors. Relief in the shane of money and all kinds of pro- visions was sure to come. One time just before big Fourth of July cele- bration we had our annual fire. Chief Bullwinkle broadcasted the news to a svmpathetic world. The fire didn't dampen Flagstaff spirits enough to prevent carrying out the celebration plans, lavishly. And along came a great assortment of relief supplies including a carload of mattresses. Al buuueruue in those days was about the most generous town among our neighbors.
 Joe Frohmiller was badly scared man Monday. He said:
 T transplanted a gland from g monkey wrench to my Henry Ford. Then went for ride and Reub Neill tried to pinch me for speeding, and the car bit him and then climbed a tree and hung from the branches by its tail light"
 J. B. Ornond should certainly read lighter things. He writes us:
 five burned-alas! the midnight oil. I've burned the sun from dawn till dusk. Instead of kernels for my toll, I've always bit the empty husk. I've scanned the heavens, searched the trees; I've covered ground on hands and knees; I've dug up dust in li- braries! and oh! my head is in a whirl-I haven't yet undone the trick. With fright my hair begins to curl--- uncertainty just makes me sick. O, gentle reader, tell me quick (for ugh! my skin begins to prick)-what is the BODY POLITIC?"
 Davy Joy was raising hobbs the oth- CT day about little augur he'd lost. Said it wasn't worth so much but he'd got sorter attached to it cause he'd raised it from little gimlet.
 County Attorney Frank Gold went into Frank Leslie's barber shop the other day and said he wanted hair cut. Leslie kind of caressed Colds dome and softly asked: "You mean a shine don't you?"
 "Sometimes officer has to think fast" said City Marshal Rube Neill. "The other day I was takin' a man to jail an his hat blowed off. He wanted to run after it. I suspected if I let him run he wouldn't come back; so I told him to stand where he was an I run after his hat"
 Frank Brooks complains they don't make glass as good nowadays as they useter. When a window pane breaks now it breaks on both sides.

or, I don't drink!" "All right, all right, then," said the magistrate, Have cigar"
 Since the news was published last week about California man getting divorce from his wife because she went through his pockets while he was asleep, Alex Johnston, Doug Roome, Bob Taylor, Charlie Prochnow, Chet Black, Bill Conley, Johnnie Adams, Ernest Lennon, Bill Beeson, Walter Durham and Jack Diamond have all pulled the newspaper clipping about it out of their pockets and showed it to me.
 "There's sure luck in horseshoes," said the man who nailed one over his door and the next day some one ran away with his wife. And then the man nailed up another horseshoe so someone would come an get his moth- er-in-law.
 Loren Cress says they were so crowded at Atlantic City during the Elks convention a lot of the dele gates had to sleep on billiard tables, and for it they were charged the reg ular rates-60 cents an hour.
 John Brown perpetrated this at Tuesdays Rotary club meeting, in spired thereto by the clubs trip up the mountain the previous week:
 "The Ford is my auto, l shall not want another. It maketh me to lie down beneath it. It soreth my soul. It leadeth me in the path of ridicule, for it's namesake.
 "Yea, though I ride through the valleys, I shall be lowed up the hills. shall hear much evil from thy rods, and thy engine discomforteth me.
 "I anncint thy tires with patches, and the radiator runneth over. 1 pre- pare for blCw-outs in the presence of my enemies.
 "Surely if this thingsfollows me all the days of my life I shall dwell in the House of Poverty forever"
 Joe Dolan at this weeks Rotary club meeting gave the following true and graphic account of the clubs pill grimage:
 All the Rotarians and Rotary-Anns and their friends and sweethearts left for Jack Smith spring at 9:30 last Tuesday. I had the honor of riding with I. B. in his Little Yellow Peril which was tuned to a T to make the ascent.
 We stopped on our way at the de- partment store located at the town of Cliffs. l. B. stated that he thought the crowd would probably like little fruit-and he came rushing out with 10 cents worth of peaches. John Yer kamp theE proceeded to blow himself for five cents worth of hard candy. By this time all the cars had passed us, so we all ate dirt and hard candy and a peach or two until we reached Bonita Park, and here we found M. I.'s radiator boiling somewhat so after it cooled off we proceeded up the grade. After climbing two or three miles over an excellent road we transferred Sid and his family at Horseshoe Bend, including the baby,
