Kimball, Mimi. Aug. s.-Mrs.
Magnus Johnson is human. The
mother Of six and farmer-wife Of
Minnesota's new U. S. Senator-elect
has changed her mind. She is not
going to stay ON the farm and milk
cows while her husband goes to
Washington. She is going with him.
The family has talked It OVER. Six
unselfish children wanted mother to
enjoy some OF the fruits Of "ict Dry

farm. and they finally won. Mother
decided to go-and with her will

ence, nine. They will attend school
in Washington this winter-quite
an unexpected change from the dis-
trict school not far from the John
son farm here in Meeker county.
Mrs. Johnson and the six children
did good job OF running the farm
while Mr.. Johnson was campaigning
during the early summer weeks. 1t
was as a result OF this that the re-
port became current that Mrs.
johnson was not going to Washing
ton II her husband was elected.
Senator Magnus Johnson is happy
that his wife is goS>s with him. He
quite frankly admits that she Is his
boss. Whether he remains in pub
lie life after serving this short term
depends altogether. he says. upon
what she decides.
The l40-acre Johnson farm Is a
typical Minnesota home. equipped
with modern machinery: forty head
Of cattle. twenty-four OF which are
milk cows; forty Duroc and Ches-
ter White hogs: 900 chickens and
eight horses. Every member of the
family is kept busy running the
place, Mrs. Johnson milking seven
cows at least once a day.

time Saturday. The hommes end Of
it did, anyhow, there being no che
veaux mixed up in the fun.
1t was initiation day, Flagstaff and
Winslow both furnishing victims for
the trenches and the other things re-
vived for the occasion from poignant
memories of over there. That all the
candidates went through the strenu-
GUS event without breakdown speaks
well for their physiques. Frailities

any business monkeying on the receiv-
ing end of one of those limitations.
Celora M. Stoddard, state command
er Of the American Legion, and MIR.
Jenkins of Prescott, director of vo-
cational education for the northern
Arizona district, were here as guests
of honor.
The ceremonies began in the armory
at o'clock in the evening and after
an hour or so there, there was par
ade down town, the novitiates, about
half case-hardened by that time, being
decorated in manner grotesque and
calculated to relieve them of any over
plus of self-esteem. Hand grenades
frequently exploding told the world
something was going ON, or coming
off.
Then back to the armory for more
case-hardening. After which came a
voluptuous banquet, served by Floyd
Longley and Frank Quirk. At three
the next morning the Flagstaff boys
tenderly dTaped the Winslow guests
on fire-boxes, bumpers and brake
beams of east-bound freight trains
and, telling them to fall off if they
wanted to, but with advice to hang
on, cheered them on their homeward
way.
The initiates were: D. L. Mckinney,
Howard Hunt, Carl Mayhem, Carr

FLAGSTAFF MANS LIFE
SAVED BY FALLING ON
TO BACK OF A MULE

George Newman of Flagstaff was
badly hurt at Ajo last Friday when
he fell As feet from steel structure
being erected at the mouth of cop
per mine shaft at Ajo, his life being
saved by falling onto the back OF a
mule.
George works for the Wisconsin
Bridge & Iron company. He had been
at Ajo about three weeks, working ON
the structure from which he fell. Just
what caused his fall is unknown, but
there were two mules below him,
standing over some Jagged rocks. He
came down head first. He had several
broken. ribs and possibly internal IN
iuries, but it is believed he will re-
cover. His daughter, Miss Bertha
Newman, and his sister, Mrs. Frank
Leslie, of Flagstaff, left here Satur-
day to be with him. Mrs. Leslie
wrote her husband that at first it was
feared George might have concussion

cation are growing less.

OLDEST DAUGHTER OF MIR.
| AND MRS. HARLOW YAEGER
SUCCUMBS TO DIPHTHERIA

Little Ann Yaeger, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Harlow Yaeger, died Satur-
day morning at the family home, %
E. Fine avenue, Flagstaff, after being
i'll for one week, with that much
dreaded disease, diphtheria.
Ann was eight years old and a most
winsome little girl, favorite with her
classmates and teachers at the train
ing school at the Normal, which she
attended. She was a student in the
third grade and because of her smil-
ing, sweet disposition, made old and
young her friends.
The immediate relatives of the de-
ceased are the father and mother and
two younger children, Mary Marjorie
and Harlow, junior. Mr.. Yaeger is
prominent sheepman of this county.
Flagstaff people as we'll as various
friends over the state extend their
sympathy.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon at 2:30 o'clock and was conduct
ed by the Christian Science church.
Mr.. and Mrs. Yaeger's two other
children, younger than Ann, have also
been sick with diphtheria, but are re-
ported to be improving.

CHAUTAUQUA IS NOT
SIGNED UP FOR NEXT YEAR

j. r. Ellison, retired president of
the Portland, Ore, Rotary club, and
president of the Ellison White chau-
tauqua company, was in Flagstaff last
week and also visited Grand Canyon,
where he met the field workers of the
five-day chautauqua circuit. They held
convention at the Canyon.
Up to date the chautauqua has not
been signed up for next year, though
the chautauqua people worked hard
with that object in view. The wo-
mans club under whose auspices the
chautauqua was given her elast week,
though they worked faithfully in SELL
ing tickets, only cleared about $40 for
ali their hard work and, naturally,
did not want to sign up again. It is
intimated that the Ellison White peo-
pie will make another try at signing
up here before next summer, but the
chances that they will succeed are re-
mote.
