CITY PARK A SUCCESS ALL
EXCEPT TO RUMOR MONGERS

City Dad B. A. Cameron, dyed-in-
the-wool booster for Flagstaff, Coco
nino county, northern Arizona, and
Arizona in general, says the new dam
at the city park has not cracked and
shows less signs of b,ing cracked than
the persons circulating the report that
it has, might, should or will crack.
There is about seven oot of water
now behind the dam and kids, tour
lists and home folks are having big
fun now jumping into the cool, spring
water.
In thousand years the grandstand
will fall down is another rumor start.
ed by parents without progeny or
hope of posterity who are afraid their
children's children may be injured in
the fall thereof.
It is to be hoped that within few
years, very few, there will be a
drive put on for funds for monu-
ment to this whole class of rumor-
mongers to be inscribed: "Here he
lies, as he always lied, while alive"

ASK INDIAN BUREAU
TO HELP REPAIR ROAD
TO INDIAN OIL FIELD

An attempt is being made by the
county board of supervisors to get CO.
operation from the Indian bureau IN
repairing the road between Flagstaff
and the new oil fields in Navajo coun-
ty beyond Kayenta. Until word is re-
ceived from the bureau it Is likely
nothing definite will be decided upon.
1t may be that local public subscrip--
tions will be asked to defray part OF
the expense.
T. A. Riordan, president of the Flag
staff chamber of commerce, realizing
the great Importance of the new oil
field to this city, if this can be kept
the gateway to the field, as 1t can Il
the road from here is reasonably
good, organized a party of local peo-
pie and motored out to the oil fields
and back last week.
Mr.. Riordan says in describing the
trip:
We left Flagstaff at a. M, ar
rived at Kayenta at $3.50 p. m, June
26, party consisting of Supervisor 4.
E. Taylor, Messrs. Lou Charlebois, 5.
O. Thompson, John Hennessey, Her
bert Babbitt, Tom Long and Anna and
Claire Riordan and myself, in two
cars; also w. H. Cramner with his
son and Lee Newman in the formers
truck, loaded with provisions for his
oil camp about 35 miles north OF Kay
enta on the Organ Dome.
We found the road from Flagstaff
to Tuba City in the best condition |
have ever seen it. 1t is good enough
for any kind Of traffic, but doubtless
is at its best just now. From Tuba
to Red Lake there were three to five
miles of heavy sand drifted on the
road. The truck led the way through
this without getting stalled, but had
to slow up and dig little once or
twice. We followed with little or no
difficulty, but realized that at times
the sand might be drifted deeper. :.
From Red Lake to Kayenta the road
was dry and hard and We had no diff
ficulty, but could understand that
on some of the flats where there were
deep ruts made in the wet season that
this part of the road is where the
trouble lies and not so much in the
sand, which | consider a minor diff
ficulty and comparatively easily rem
edied
Mr.. Cramner thought the best plan
would be to change the road from the
flats to the higher ground at the base
of the ridge on one Of the longest
stretches. This may be better plan

STATE ELKS HAVE FINE
TIME FIRST HALF WEEK
AT THE GRAND CANYON

The Arizona Elks association held a
very successful and enthusiastic meet
ing at Grand Canyon on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week,
at which every Elk lodge in the state
was represented with the exception of
two.
This association is composed of the
various Elks lodges of the state, four
teen in number, and annual meetings
We're held previous to the war, but this
session, the seventh, was the first held
since 1917, consequently there was
considerable reorganization work and
lining up to be done.
The fact that there is no Elks lodge
at Grand Canyon forced much addi-
tional work and preparation upon the
officers and delegates of the assocla-
ton, and a great amount of this fell
to the Flagstaff boys, all Of whom did
everything possible to make the meet
ing the success it was.
Col w. w. Crosby, superintendent
Grand Canyon National park, deliver
ed the address of welcome, on Mon
day evening, and also devoted his full
time to the entertainment OF the vlS-
itors. Milford Winsor Of Yuma, re-
Piled in an extended talk upon the his
tory and activities OH the order. The
balance of the evening was occupied
by musical and literary numbers.
The business sessions Of the conver-
ton were held in the community house
Tuesday, in which only the delegates
took part President H. B, Cassidy of
Phoenix presided at all of the sessions,
and Secretary NJ. S. Stanley Of Doug
las, together with practically all of the
other officers we're present.
r. B. Eastman of Winslow, chair
man of the committee appointed to
revise or rewrite the constitution and
laws, reported and recommended the
adoption Of the uniform constitution
and bylaws recommended by the
grand lodge, with slight changes to
better suit the local conditions. The
recommendation was adopted.
Grant Dunlap of Bisbee, district
deputy Arizona north, recommended
that the Arizona delegates TO the nat
ional convention in Atlanta, Georgia,
next week, be requested to adopt the
regulation cowboy uniform in the par
ade, thus making more distinctive
and noticeable appearance. There was
some objection to having the nerve to

chaps and a ten-gallon hat in Atlanta
in July, but the motion prevailed and
each lodge secretary was wired the

GROUP OF WOMEN KNOW HOW
 ITO HELP SICK AND NEEDY.

Nearly all pioneers of Birmingham have heard of Mrs. E. R. Smiths class, over at the First Presbyterian bearing splendid burdens on their shoulders for the needy and sick, and occasionally frolicking among them selves at some very original parties which they give.
 The Near East Relief, Jail Work, Relief among the Lepers, and many other worthy causes are the things which interest them.
 Their members range in age from 30 to so years, the clubs oldest being Dr. Mac5porran's mother.
 It has been their custom to hold spend the-day parties, at the home of Mrs. D. R. Smith, when they made worsted quilts. Then busy fingers flew, and there could be no luncheon served at these meetings until the quilt was finished. These meetings have been abandoned for the present, butt will be resumed shortly.
 At each Sunday meeting a basket is passed bearing the scriptural verse, Sick md in Prison, and Ye Visited Me Not Gifts are always placed in this basket by each mem ber and there is never a Sunday morning too busy for these class members to bring magazines, dain- ties. stamped envelopes, postals, books. or other comforts for this basket which Is taken to theie protege at the Jail.
 Mrs, smith was an invalid when she took the class. and thought that she would alternate in teaching with some one else. But as time went on her health improved and she has only missed nine Sundays in the whole 1T years.
 Mrs. William Hardie is one of the former members who has moved away her home now being in New York.
 The class-just now in its prime is planning to .overshadow all of their past accomplishments with big things in the future, and under the guidance of Mrs. F. W. Dixon, the class president they will celebrate their seventeenth anniv srsary with happy birthday party shortly.
