MARK A. MOORE POST No. 8,
AMERICAN LEGION.
NOTED SCREEN STARS
TO APPEAR I'm PERSON
ORPHEUM SAT. NIGHT

Richard Dix, Noah Beery, Louis
Wilson, Charles Ogle and Richardo
Cortez, famous movie stars, with
Victor Fleming, popular director, ar
rived in Flagstaff from Los, Angeles
yesterday. They had been preceded
weeks ago by numerous
work1nen who have been busy at Oak
Creek getting ready for the filming
of Zane Grey's "Call Of the Canyon"
Many lesser lights of the company
also arrived yesterday, about 35 in
all.
Miss Mary Costigan, proprietor of
the Orpheum, will arrange for pub
lie appearance Of the stars here next
week, with the cooperation of the
management Of the Famous Players
Lasky corporation, with which they
are connected. She has been advised
that Bebe Daniels will also be in the
cast and will soon arrive from the
east.
It is reported that before going to
Oak Creek the company will remain
in Flagstaff for several days, shooting
the first part of the picture here. So
our local people may inadvertently
find themselves immortalized on the
silver screen if they don't watch out.
Anyhow, you'd better not come down
town unless prepared with clean bib
and tucker, close shave and all that.
Richard Dix and Lois Wilson, Noah
Beery will make a personal appear
ance at the Orpheum tomorrow eve-
ming, Saturday night.

BASEBALL AND DANCING
FEATURES ELKS PICNIC

Flagstaff will celebrate Labor Day
at the new city recreation park, with
the local lodge of Elks as hosts.
And there is to be baseball game,
the first on the dandy new diamond
The opposing mines will be made up
of married Elks, under the manage
ment of Fred E. Browning, and single
Elks, under the tutelage of Walter G.
Carlson
We hate to tell you the exact line
up. But on either side are retired
stars of the diamond who are due to
get a lot of aches for their pains
when they try to unlimber and who
will find the pill looks smaller and
the clubs are more unwieldy than in
days of yore, also that the bases
seem to be about three times as far
apart and that slide is a feat now
to be accomplished only in imagina-
tion.
Not that they are a bunch of Grip
pies, but they're no longer the greas-
ed lightning, maybe, they once were,
if you're old enough to know what we
mean. In the immortal words of M. /.
Powers, they can run as fast and jump
as far as ever they could, but they
light quicker
You can take your own lunch and
supper, or get hot dog sandwiches,
coffee, ice cream and soft drinks on
the grounds. There will be juvenile
sports at two, baseball at three ano
dancing in the big ball room to music
by the Waters orchestra. both after
noon and evening.

DICK CONNOR APPOINTED
ACTING POSTMASTER HERE
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

r. J. ("Dick") Connor received
telegram last night announcing his
appointment to be acting postmaster
of Flagstaff, effective Immediately, %
succeed Miss Lutte Paxton, who re-
Gently sent in her resignation, prompt
ed by her approaching marriage.
The appointment of Mr.. Connor had
been confidently expected by his
friends here. He has the qualifica-
tions in abundance and his wide ac-
quaintance with the people and gem
eral business training and experience
afford him additional admirable
equipment for the position.
The telegram read: Senator Cam
eron had you designated acting post
master at Flagstaff, effective in2me-
diately, pending permanent appoint
ment which will result list of eigibles
examination September. e. w. Camp
bell, secretary"
The examination above alluded to
will take place here on September II.
1t is understood that Walter Runke,
who for a time was candidate for the
position, has decided that he does not
want it and will not take the examin-
alton. Dan Williams, democratic as
pirant for the position, it is expected
will take the examination and it is
rumored that there is one other. Miss
Paxton's resignation resulted in the
office of postmaster being declared
vacant on July II, and she remained
as acting postmaster until someone
was appointed to relieve her. The sal
ary is $4,000 year
Flagstaff has for a. long time been
singularly fortunate in postmasters,
having had efficient, conscientious
people in the job, and this good for
tune is scheduled to continue.

CAMP GROUNDS SCHOOLS
AND POWER SUBJECTS ATT
TUESDAYS ROTARY MEET

Hydro-electric power, back-to-school
work and public camp grounds came
in for the bulk of the deliberations at
Tuesday Moons meeting of the Flag
staff Rotary club. George T. Herring
ton, manager of the Flagstaff Electric
Light company, gave an interesting
service talk, reviewing the power pos
sibilities and power development in
this and other countries, and this talk
is reported in another column in this
issue.
John @. Thomas, city superinten-
dent of schools made a strong plea for
encouragement by Rotarians of boys
and girls who, without such advice
and encouragement, may not enter
high school, and said that If this inn
portant advice is often and freely CIV
en- it will have big effect in induc-
ing more boys and girls to enter and
go through high school, with conse-
quent benefit to their future lives and
to the community and country in gem
eral.
President L. B. McMullen of the
normal school, with his wife and
daughters just home from an auto
mobile tour of several thousand miles
through California, sounded off on the
camp ground proposition. Beginning
in lighter vein, he gradually grew ser
ious and said that while our city coun-
Gil have provided and are alive to the
needs for fine camp ground, public
sentiment should stay behind them in
making this the best camp ground in
the country and in widely advertising
that it is here.
Mr.. McMullen stopped at many
California camp grounds. The best

The above is a verbatim account of
what was said during the twy-hour
verbal scrap just before the H0i In
dian snake dance at Polacca las Fri
day between George w. P. Hunt gov
ernor of the state of Arizona, and
Robert E. Lee Daniels of Keams Can
yon, superintendent of the reservation.
For two hours the battle laged.
The governor took the offensive, Mr..
Daniels the defensive, though he lat
ter, former Confederate officer,
made several sorties in the course of
the exchange of bitter bandiage.
"You will" shouted the governor,
"even if | have to call out the state
militia to make you do it,"
II WON'T" retored the veteran, "no
matter what you do"
Maybe those aren't exactly the
words they used, but something like
them.
The governor demanded that j. M.
Mccullough, Phoenix photographer, be
allowed to take pictures of the snake
dance Superintendent Daniels said
he couldn't, and shouldn't-and stood
pat.
The Sun was advised beforehand
that there was likely to be trouble.
Some time ago the governor wrote to
u. S. Commissioner of Indian Affairs
Charles H. Burke, asking permission
to photograph the dance, the purpose
being to preserve the pictures in the
state museum. Permission was also
asked for moving picture work by
Kate T. Corey, the Prescott artist
and writer.
Commissioner Burke replied that he
had no objections whatever, but that
the matter must be left to the Indians
themselves to decide.
The Indians met in kiva and for
mally debated the matter. They had
no objection to the picture being ta-
ken by Uncle Sam or for Uncle Sam.
Moreover, if Uncle Sam ordered the
pictures to be taken, it was all right

DEDICATION OF NEW CITY RECREAITON
PARK AND BUILDING DRAWS BIC CROWD

The dedication Of the new city park
and recreation building on Tuesday
afternoon and evening under the aus
pices of Flagstaff city council and
Flagstaff Woman's club was graft
flying, pleasant success. There were
many hundreds of people there and
they all had a thorough good time.
Many were the expressions of amaze
ment and admiration evoked from
those who had not visited the place
in several weeks.

Mrs. Fred Caring leaves Sunday for
Albuquerque, to be with Mr.. Caring,
who is staying with their daughter,
Mrs. Otho Priest, and receiving med

there through the winter. Another
daughter, Mrs. Lester Power, and her
husband will occupy the Caring home.

The beautiful setting among giant
pine trees, the splendid ball field, the
handsome, big, convenient recreation
building, the new lake--al these
make up an achievement of which
Flagstaff people are proud.
The big ball room below the grand
stand, with its polished hardwood
floor, has already become veritable
community house and very likely will
be the scene of merry gatherings ev-
cry few nights the year round.

IS E.'lJkl-D'S BEST
Crime CHASER
Chemist Becomes Best-KnoWn
and MoSt-Feared Detective
in France.
HE USES SCIENTIFIC METHODS
Gives Little Attention to the Personal
ity of Criminals or Their Psy-
chology, but Works With
Material Things.

| Paris--A chemist of recent year
has become the best-known detectiv
in France. Edmond Bayle is a small
dark, quiet man; he works in a mod
ern-equipped laboratory in the Palai
de Justice; he is feared by criminals
/ of all classes, and his ultimate fame
| promises to surpass that of Alphont
Bertillion, the French finger-print ex
| pert, who died in 1914.
Doctor Bayle Is chief of the techni
| cal bureau Of the Paris police depart
ment. Here all the criminal informa
ton Of the republic Is concentrated
classified and studied From this bu
reau the expert chemist and physicist
gives directions in the field Of Grim
inal detection. So successful has he
been that the ignorant criminal classes
have come to regard him as q worker

Study His Methods.
His unique methods have been
studied by the police department Of
New York city. Doctor Bayle rarely
gives much attention to the personal
ity Of criminals or their particular
psychology He works rather with
material things. His workshop con-
sists Of many rooms and passageways
equipped with all the paraphernalia Of
big industrial laboratory, and In
cludes a photograph gallery. He has
spectroscopes, microscopes and X-ray
machines by the dozen, each fitted for
special purpose, such as examining
blood spots, forged documents, coun-
terfeit money, powder-burned clothes
and the wreckage that 10 picked up on
4 criminals trail.
Doctor Bayle's study Is lined with
books on science, and catalogue rec
ords Of his work. In the records of
his bureau there are registered no less
than 100000 names of persons in
volved in crimes, past and present.
Crime Detection Different.
1.-THE detection of crime today is
very different from the
conception said Doctor
Bayle. "The Sherlock Holmes and Ar
sene Lupin stories of great criminals
and their feats are no doubt most en-
but that is all I can say
for them. From my point Of view,
there is no crime that cannot be de-

Helping the Dealer to Sell

Every manufacturer appreciates, in
some degree. the Importance of
helping the retailer sell his product.
And yet in many instances that de-
gree is very small. It can hardly be
compared in Importance so thinks
a certain type of manufacturer
with selling the product to the
dealer.
It is nothing short of a false as
sumption, unsound and untrust-
worthy, to think that merely stock
ing up the dealer with a product
constitutes effective distribution.
Effort of that kind, it is true, may
dispose of lot of goods, but it'does
not sell them. Unless the consum-
er comes in prepared or disposed
to buy them they will remain on
the shelf of the dealer, recorders
will be impossible, and the whole
product will be a failure.
The safest alternative is for the
manufacturer to create a consumer
demand through Advertising. This
will help the dealer move the
goods, and then he will order more.
Advertising is as much basic pant
of the business of the manufacturer
of any specific trade-rnarked pro-

duct as is production and distribu-
ton. It is not something that can
be considered merely as an expense.
to be curtailed to the minimum. It
is creative influence which, more
than any other thing after the merit
of the product, determines the ex-
tent of the consumer demand
Too often the manufacturer thinks
of his advertising as clever means
of irnpressing the dealer with the
desirability of stocking up with his
goods, and he does enough to ac-
conplish that effect, and then ex-
poets the dealer to move the goods.
This is mistaken use Of advertis-
ing and it quickly reacts upon the
manufacturer.
It is the business of the dealer to
provide the goods which the public
demand He would be foolish to do
otherwise, and would soon cease to
be dealer. 1t is the business of the
manufacturer meaning specifical-
ly, the manufacturer of a trade
marked article, or one that might
be trade-marked-to create con-
sumner demand by means of Adver-
