TUCSON OR BUST
To All Flagstaff Rotarians:

To All Flagstaff Rotarians:
We are advised by the Rotary con-
ference secretary at Tucson that ar
rangements have been made securing
the following railroad rates for the
conference and which rates apply to
all Rotarians and their wives:
A rate of Ia fares will be given
on certificate plan contingent upon
the sale of not less than $50 tickets.
At the time of purchasing transpor-
tation to Tucson, each Rotarian pays
full fare one way and secures, from
the local agent, a certificate show
ing that the ticket was purchased for
attendance at the Rotary conference.
These certificates are then turned ov-
er to the conference secretary at Tue
son and when he has received $50 he
will so notify each of the local rail-
roads, endorse the certificates and re-
turn them to their owners.
The presentation of the endorsed
certificate at the time of securing the
return ticket will entitle the holder to
one-half return rate.
1t is planned, if possible, to so ar
range it to have all Rotarians leave
here on No. Tuesday night, March
20, in special car, joining with Hol-
brook, Winslow and Kingman mepl-
bers and then either motor to Tue
son from Phoenix or by train if pre-
ferred, train leaving Phoenix Wednes-
day evening, March 21 at about 6
o'clock, which train will arrive In
Tucson 1890 that same night.
In order to perfect plans, your
committee will appreciate it if all
members will advise imediately wheth-
er or not they can go, whether they
will go with the "crowd" on the above
mentioned date, whether or not their
wives will accompany them, and in
order that we may be guided, wheth-
er they prefer motoring from Phoenix
or go by train to Tucson.
Let us make our club the best rep
resented at Tucson. We know that it
can be done and let all who can at
tend and do not forget the Rotary
AIMS"
We have been assured that there
will not be one dull moment during
the conference.
Rotarily yours,

Country Doings

(Too late for publication last week J
Earl and Anna Morris, of Pasadena,
California, purchased the Mccoy place
in Pittman valley, the c. M. Herr
ranch, five miles east of Williams,
and the F. S. Herr ranch, four miles
east of Williams, from F. S. Herr. 1t
was stated that Mr.. and Mrs. Morris
traded city property in Pasadena, Cal
ifornia, to Mr.. Herr for the three
ranches. r. w. Robinson and his
mother, and M M. Hicks, who will
help Mr.. Morris farm the ranches,
have moved in and are now living on
the F. S. Herr ranch. Mr.. and. Mrs.
Morris are in Pasadena, but will move
here very shortly.
Lee Ivie, who owned a ranch about
20 miles north of Williams, has
traded his ranch for city property In
Los Angeles.
A couple of weeks ago H. o. Wright
of Government Prairie started to walk
to Maine to catch the Santa Fe pas
senger train No. s. The snow was
deep, the road unbroken, and the
morning foggy. Mr.. Wright lost his
way and found himself at Albert
Greven's ranch, two miles west Of
Maine. He then walked toward
Maine, as he thought, and found him
self at the hill north of Maine. How
ever, from the hill he could see the
railroad, and got to Maine just in time
to catch No. 8, which happened to be
40 minutes late.
Williams is badly in need of de-
pendable supply of good water. Nine
miles east of Williams, in Pittman
Valley, more wates goes to waste each
year than Williams could use. Pitt
man Valley is underlaid with large
body of pure water, which is only two
to four feet beneath the surface. The
water could be siphoned from Pitt
man Valley to Williams, as Williams
is about 200 feet lower than the val
ley. Tom Wagner says there is no
water any wetter, better or purer than
that in Pittman valley.

NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES

MIA, has moved back to his home, as
they have now returned to Flagstaff
Miss Jennie Naegle, of st. Johns
has been the guest of Miss Amy Pat
terson, at Campbell Hall, for the past
week. Miss Naegle returned Tuesday
to resume her teaching.
DR.. V. M. Slipher, director of the
Lowell observatory, was a visitor at
the Normal school at the assembly
period on Tuesday morning, March 13,
this being the birthday of DR.. Perci-
val Lowell, founder of the observatory
on Mars hill. DR.. Slipher is always
welcome guest, but. he was particul-
arly so on Tuesday because he was
bearing the $50 gold piece which Mrs.
Lowell gives as a prize for student
ship each year.
The grades of all students gradual
ing in December, March, June and Au-
gust were considered by committee
of the faculty and it was found that
Miss Flo Dele Davies, a December
graduate, now teaching in Jerome,
had the highest average during her
Normal school course. Miss Davies
averaged almost "a per cent. Mrs.
McFate, of the August group, and
Effie Allsup, one of our own Flag
staff girls who graduates in June,
were tied for second place.
In the absence of Miss Davies, Miss
Allsup was called to the platform to
receive the prize to be transmitted to
Miss Davies.

Above is evidence of some splen-
didly constructive work that is being
done by the Flagstaff chamber of
commerce, through its president, T. A.
Riordan, in cooperation with the adj
vertising department of the Santa Fe
railroad company.
Mr.. Riordan believes in Flagstaff.
He is doing more than merely invest
ing money here and, with his broth
er, M. j. Riordan, helping keep Flag
staff the best town industrially in
northern Arizona. He proposes to
see that Flagstaff shall get the adj
vertising its wonderful natural advan-
tages SO richly merit.
He believes that there is no place
in America that will be more popu-
lar with tourists and sight-seers than
Flagstaff once they know what Flag
staff has to offer.

A double-header was played be-
tween Normal and Winslow last night.
1t proved to be very exciting game.
To-day and tomorrow, March 10Th
and 18th, aabasket ball tournament
will be held in Ashurst Auditorium.
All of the high school teams of the
state have been invited to play. The
Normal teams will not participate in
this event as they belong to the Ju-
nior College class. Despite this fact,
we are sure most of these games will
be very interesting to local specta-
tors.
. Group No. One were the unfortun-
ate students of the penmanship class
who were doomed to entertain the
other group at hard-time party last
Saturday night in the domestic sci
ence room. John Hamblin, who was
dressed as a hobo, and Thelma Deck
er, dressed as tough, won the ami
NAL cookie prizes. The evening was
spent in dancing, playing games, races
and especially potato racing. Sand
wiches and cocoa followed as refresh
ments and each one received a little
bag of candy.
Wednesday evening about one hun
dred and twenty guests enjoyed the
quarterly faculty dinner given in the
cafeteria in honor of the March sem
iors. The domestic science class pre-
pared and served the three-course
dinner. Jonquils and pussy willows
were the pretty decorations of the
occasion.
Mr.. Schultz, director of the train
ing school, has been absent part of
this week on account of school sur
vey trip which carried him into some
of our neighboring towns. Assisted
by Miss Irene Buzenbark and Roy Nc
Fate, he conducted educational tests
in Holbrook Monday and Tuesday, and
in Winslow on Wednesday.
The Wizard of o." film sent out
by the University of Utah, was pre-
sented to the students and faculty Of
the Normal school and their friends
Thursday evening Of last week m

noon the film was repeated for the
training school children.
Sunday morning Miss Wheeler en-
tertained the campus members of the
faculty at breakfast in the domestic
science department.
The usual Friday luncheon, prepar-
ed and served by the normal cooking

a la tarifa existente sobre la impor-

LA TARIFA
ES EXCESIVA

De acuerdo con 10 que informara
la Asocacion de Azucareros, las in
vestigaciones que practiquen los ex-
pertos de la Comision demostraran
que los impuestos creados por la Ley
Tarifaria sobre ell az1car pesa inne-
cesariamente sobre los hombros del
pueblo consumidor obligandole a pa
gar precios excesivos y exhorbitantes,
Razones especificas para probar que
la actual tarifa es demasiado alta fue
ron presentadas por la Association &c
Azucareros como sigue:
"El consume approximate de azti-
car para el ano 1923 es aproxima-
damente de 5,5000OO toneladas de
1000 hbras cada una. De esta cifra
ell aZi1car producida en- los Estados
Unidos continentales es alredor de un
Is por ciento. Ell az1car producida
fuera e importada a los Estados Uni

es aproximadamente un "a por cien-
to de esta cantidad. Ell voldmen de

cidos a un so por ciento ha sido
muy dtil. Esta petieion basaba sus
razones sobre ell Immediate efecto de
esta reduction en- ell precio del az1-
car para el consumidor. Este argu-
mento, Sc cree, sera una de las cosas
que estudiaran mas detenidamente,

tie Coolidge al determinar la acci6n
que debera tomarse con relaci6n a la

THE NEW ORGANIC ACT FOR
 SOUTH ALASKA

The Gateway toca, puDllGHes. on Page One the Organic Act adopted al the recent convention for division of the Territory. While this Act is quite lengthy, considering space at hand, it is published in order that proponents and opponents of division may read it for themselves. Il is enl- inently fair to the rest of the Terri graph stating that the Territory to be known as South Alaska shall be given a percentage of the money in the Treasury equal to the percentage Of the money contributed to it during the preceding biennium," and the sec tion providing that corporations or permitted to elect whether they shall retain their standing in South Alaska or in the remainder of the present Alaska"
 Without desiring to block division in any way it would have been much better for the first paragraph to have added to the section providing for a percentage of all moneys paid in dur ing the preceding two years, the words less the expenditures made by that portion ot the Territory known as South Alaska" or words to that effect.
 In the second clause we believe that corporations organized in the Terri tory and doing business in the First division should go with the new Ter ritory. Corporations doing business in other portions of Alaska should be transferred with other matters and records. This would place them un- der absolute jurisdiction of the part of Alaska they are doing business in, and eliminate future arguments.

SEVEN NEW CARS WILL BE
 ADDED TO STAGE LINE IN 1924

Preparations are being made by the Sheldon-Galen stage line to handle an increased tourist trade during the 1924 season, according to Bob Shel- don, who returned to Seward on the last boat, on his way to Fairbanks. Seven news cars will be added to the autos, and five Dodge touring cars. It is reported that the Dodge has proven to be one of the best for the trail, ac- cording to price standards.
