Two Flagstaff ladies made very eff
fective, brief talks, in behalf of the
chautauqua, which is to open in Flag
staff on May 8, for five days. 1t is
given under the auspices of the Flag
staff Woman's club, and representing
the club at the meeting were Miss
Mary Boyer, president, and Mrs. Ann
Noble and Mrs. c. A. Keller.
Miss Boyer said the Woman's club
is intensely interested in making the
chautauqua a success financially, as
the proceeds will go toward the new
Woman's club home which is to be
built within few months. Her or
ganization intends to follow the lead
of the Rotary club, sponsor for the
local Boy Scout work, itself organic
ing and launching the Girl Scout
movement here. There will be recre-
alton rooms in the new home for both
boys and girls. She hopes to see ev-
ery man and woman in Flagstaff at
at at least one of the chautauqua en-
tertainments this year.
Mrs. Noble spoke for the junior
chautauqua, which will be stressed
more than ever in this years pro-
gram, with lot of especially at
tractive features. She urged that
adults who do not buy tickets for
themselves at least contribute to the
fund to be raised by the committee
to buy tickets for all children, from
the fourth grade up, who otherwise
would not be able to attend. The
chautauqua will have so much espec-
tally for children, entirely apart from
the schedule for adults, that it is
hoped every child may be privileged
to attend.
Carl Mayhew, chairman of the Ro-
tary advertising committee for the
American Legion state convention to
be held in Flagstaff June IL to 13,
told of the big amount of advertising
the local legionnaires have already
done throughout the state. He said
the committee had received $500 SO
far from Flagstaff citizens. There is
some yet to raise. Some gave more
than the committee had ever hoped
for. Twenty-Five thousand envelopes
announcing the convention have been
mailed out by local business houses.
Stickers are going on auto windshieics
in every county and town IN the state.
To send all the visitors at the con-
vention away with good feeling, Carl
asked that Flagstaff people cooper
ate as far as possible to solve the
problem of housing them all. He said
the local post of the Legion doesn't
want to get into position in this re-
spect similar to that of the man who
climbed tree to catch a coon. After
a while his companion, standing at
the bottom of the tree, yelled out to
know if the man aloft wanted any
help in holding the coon. The man
above yelled back: "No, but you'd
better come up and help me turn the
damn thing loose"
