TRADE SCHOOL NOTES

J.R. Mccormick, instructor in elec. tricity. has been appointed director of athletics, succeeding Benn kershaw.
 The evening school has opened very successfully. Approximately 100 stu dents are enrolled in all classes at the present time.
 There is a large demand for textile instruction, chiefly in cloth analysis, designing and loom fixing. Around 90 are enrolled in that work. The machine and electrical courses are also very popular. A few more stu- dents could be accommodated in the carpentry and drafting departments cooking and sewing courses are very well patronized.
 More interest has been manifest lately in the textile training possible at the school. This is due in some measure to the cooperation and inter est being taken by mill men in and around Putnam in bringing the school to the attention of employees and the public generally.
 It is hoped that some sort of coop erative mill course will be inaugurated similar to the program carried out in New Bedford and Fall River. This might easily be done in Putnam to considerable advantage both to the iu- dividual and the industry as . whole.

ARHONA'S PROMISED LAND
TO BE TALKED ABOUT

Mr.. w. j. O'Brien, secretary of the
Spring Valley Townsite, and the
special representative of the Presid-
ent, W. l., Street of the same comp
any, and also of the general manag-
er of the Snider Catsup Company, is
in the CITY today This afternoon
he speaks to the ladies Of the Friday
Culture Club and tomorrow, Satur-
day evening, he will talk to the
men and women of the city at the
City Hall The Snider Catsup Com
pany have optioned 5000 acres in
the Williamson Valley project and,
as advertised elsewhere in this is
sue, will erect a factory there, one
of fourteen in number. The en-
ployes of this enterprise will re-
quire that small city be built for
their accommodation. The present
campaign of the sale of town lots
is, in effect, but an opportunity for
the Arizona people to have a chance
to acquire some of these now vacant
lots and permit them to share in the
profits Of increasing valuations. The
writer was the guest of the William
son Valley Farm Lands Company
some months ago and in company
with their engineer. Mr.. Homer d.
Wood, made careful survey of the
country. At that time there appear
ed in the columns of The Mail an
article of some length discussing
the advantages of this area, dealing
with it's water supply, soil fertility.
climatic conditions, dam site, water
conservation, etc.
The many particlar favors that
nature has showered upon this chos-
en- section are paramount to its fin
al development into large product
i've agricultural district. Mr.. A. w.
Davis, whose energy and ability.
coupled with magnificent fore
sight, has made these natural condi-
tions available to an investing pub
lie and under his guidance and sup
ervision there is assured a new pop
ulation and new growth for that
particular section of our state. To
him there should be extended much
credit for his nrocrastination in that
particular field of endeavor. There
now seems certain to be confirma-
tion of his judgment and in the in
teresting of such strong financial in
dustries as the Snider Catsup Com
pany, success is bound to follow in
increasing swells of prosperity.
But we must not tell it all to you
We must give Mr. O'Brien a chance
to spring something new. And If
you will attend the meeting in the
City Hall Saturday evening, both
ladies and gentlemen, you will hear
some more of our western enthusi-
asm from the lips of Mr.. OBrien.

The Red Cross during its activ-

improve the health standards of our
school children as the records of
cur schools can be shown in evil

life-saving service during the period
of the influenza epidemic a few
years ago. We cannot say today
when they will not be called upon
again to render a like service and
aid to our own people such as no
other organization is prepared to
give Do we not owe it to them

the lives in our own community as
