ut is for quite q different reason,

Ari2ona desires what might be called

shows that while the southern boun-
dary OF the state extends due west
for a. space from the southwestern
northwestward at q. very slight angle
The resolution seeks an arrangement
with Mexico by which this bend in
the southern boundary of the state
would be eliminated, 80 that the line
would continue, as It started, In a
due cast and west direction. The
triangular area that would be added
to tho state would be about 240 miles
long by about fifty miles wide at the
point Of greatest breadth.
THE important consideration is that
this long narrow triangle is all that
separates Arizona from the sea. the
Gulf OF California, huge arm of the
Pacific. Add it to Arizona, and over

BLUE EARH BOY Is STAR
Arthur Rachel Has Made His Mark
In Hollywood Picture

VTtnur NdCnci HaS MADE HIS Mark
In Hollywood Picture
Blue Earth, September 1.-THE
Blue Earth Post says: A Hollywood
daily paper is handed US with a
write up OF a new picture about to
be presented. Arthur Kachel is a
son OF former Evangelical pastor
or Blue Earth and a mighty fine
young man. Read:
With the selection on Saturday
afternoon Of Arthur B. Rachel, we'll
known Hollywood actor and famous
dramatic reader, to play the prin-
cipal part in The Wayfarer," comes
new recognition to Hollywood and
or her foremost residents. The pro-
ductlon OF this great scriptural dra-
ma Is by far the most colossal pro-
duclon ever attempted in America,
and includes a cast OF 1000 people,
and 1s estimated to cost SIPS, 900.
Seven carloads or gorgeous scenery
viii be used for the production
which will take place during the
week Of September s.
Hollywood had already attached a
great deal Of interest to this com
20 e-UGdCuon with the selection
sUme time ago OF Hugh Kirchofer,
Hollywood's own" song leader, as
one of the directors of tho choruses
which will take a large part in the
play, but with the, recents selection
OF Arthur Rachel as the principal
actor, Hollywood's response in at
tendance an support will conse
quently be enormous.
Mr.. Rachel tried for the part OF
the sUnufornT.,b
group Of competitors and won first
place by the process of elimination.
The task to fill with the human
voice, the large space in the coli
scum, and reach $4,000 people, is
not an easy one, nor can it be ac-
complisched night after night by a
single actor, therefore two men
have been selected to play the part,
alternating during its presentation.
The success of Mr.. Rachel In his
part is almost assured, for his voice
with remarkable depth, volume,
and clear rich quality, coupled with
his large experience as an actor
and dramatic reader has placed him
In the foremost ranks of dramatic
artists OF the present day. His fame
for his delicate Interpretation in the
reading of "Disraeli," "The Music
Master" and other classics has
spread far and wide and makes him
ono Of the most widely sought, after
artists Of the city.
Mr.. Rachel has for some time
been at the head OF the Hollywood
High School. the Hollywood School
for Girls, and at the Hollywood Con-
servatory Of Music. for he is not
alone a consumate artist, but has a
rare gift Of being able to pass ou the
great talent which possesses.

Directors of the Civic and Com
merce association held very I'M
portant meeting this week. In ad-
dition to approving the appoint
ment of six committees, a number
of other matters of considerable
interest 20 the community received
attention. ..l
Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, has been asked
by the Civic and Commerce Associ-
alton to give immediate considera-
tion to the question Of erecting q
fence on what is known as Mathews
Hill, on trunk highway No. s just
south OF the city. A fence there is
badly needed to safeguard persons
travelling that way by automibiie.
Sometime ago. the Civic and
Commerce association called State
Highway Commissioners Babcock's
attention to the need of graveling
trunk highway No. 39 between Ma
pleton and Wells. He advised that
consideration would be given to the
question. Another communication
has been sent to Mr.. Babcock in
Quiring as to the present status OF
the matter. This is an important
road and should be graveled with
the least delay possible.
John Nyquist and George M. Pal
mer were asked at the meeting OF
the board Of directors to investi-
gate matters pertaining to the time
when weak will be actively under
way in the construction OF the. new
state trunk highway to Madelia.
Bonds to cover this were issued
sometime ago by the county COM
missioners and the matter Is now
up to the state highway depart
ment.
Business men of Mapleton are TO

sociation on this occasion. The
good people of this neighboring city
are very friendly toward Mankato,
and all who can do SO, should make
special efforts to attend the festival
on at least one day.
