GIVE BIG HALLOWEEN BALL

Halloween spirit, reckless, care
free Halloween spirit, held sway at
the masquerade ball given by the
Ladies Auxiliary of the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen Wednesday
night at Kelly's dance hall.
Masquerade was the word. Costu-
mes belied identification, age and

girls dressed as boys. Every class
and nationality were represented on
the floor. 1t is a far fling from the
uncouth country rustic to the polish

ELKS WILL STAGE
BIG BOXING CARD

Fistic Battles!
A boxing carnival, the best that
has ever been staged in Winslow. will
be put on by the Elks next Wednes-
day night, November 7, at $50 for
the benefit of their band
Two good bouts are scheduled as a
curtain raiser. The first rs between
Kid Arnold and Kid Weitzel. These
two aspirants for pugilistic fame will
box three rounds provided that neith-
er is knocked out in the meantime.
Both of these boys have been seen in
action by some of our fighting fans
who know that they are fast kids and
that they battle for all that is in
them. The second curtain raiser is
a three round bout between Kid Con
zales and Mike Alarid Both of these
boys are on the road to be future
pugs". They possess both fighting
ability and science, and can stand
world of punishment They have
been reared on pugilism and when
they fight they move with the velocity
of a cyclone. These two bouts are
bound to be worth the money that
you have to pay for the entire car
nival
semi-final of four rounds be-
tween Kid Mcmillan and Otto Hub
bard will be big fight second only
to the main event of the carnival.
These boys have been training hard
for this bout and will be in tiptop
condition to put up the battle of their
lives Both are confident of winning
the fight and are going into the ring
with the idea to do all the milling
and damage that they can do to each
other. This will undoubtedly be as
good as a professional encounter.
The main event of the big boxing
card is a ten-round set-to between
Soldier Castillo and Bill Jarvis.
Soldier Castillo is recognized as
better pugilist than Fighting Brown,
who won a decision over Vaneman,
champion of his division over seas.
The soldier is a scrapper who says
he is not afraid to fight anyone. He
has had a great deal of experience in
the game, and has great staying quail
tiles; he can also take a world of
punishment. Bill Jarvis, the import
ed glove artist, is champion in his
class of the state of Utah. He boxed
all four years that he attended the
University of Utah under expert
trainers. He thoroughly knows the
game and has met the largest and
toughest boys in the various univer-
sity tournaments held in the Rocky
Mountain conferences
Soldier Castillo weights 1856 pounds;
Jarvis, 165. Those who have seen
both men in action say that the cham
pion of Utah will more than make up
for this difference in weight with his
knowledge of the game and fighting
science.
This bout should prove the best
fight ever seen in Winslow.

BOSTON POOL HALL ROBBED
OF CASH TUESDAY NIGHT

The Boston Pool Hall was robbed
sometime Tuesday night of about six
dollars in cash and check for thirty
dollars. 1t is somewhat of mystery
how the robbery was effected. No
place could be found where the thief
gained access to the hall. All the
doors were barred except the front
one which has Yale lock On it. The
robber either had key to this lock-
or he entered the hall before it
closed for the night and hid himself
rifing the cash drawer after the
employees left.

RED CROSS REPRESENTATIVE
PROPOSES NURSING SERVICE

Miss NJ D. Barnes, Red Cross field
representative for Arizona, with head
quarters at Phoenix, was in Winslow
over the weekend trying to interest
the people to provide an itinerant
public health nursing service under
the supervision of the Red Cross.
The proposition which Miss Barnes
has submitted to the city makes pro-
vision for a nurse to remain in the
different communities of the state as
long as they desire her services. The
conditions are that each community
in it. Her travelling expenses in the
state are to be shared by the differ
ent communities. The Pacific divi-
sion of the Red Cross helps to finan
ce this service; it pays the nurses
salary and her travelling expenses
from San Francisco to Arizona.
Miss Barnes expressed the hope
that Winslow would make provision
for thtis itinerant service. She is
trying to interest other cities in the
state, and if sufficient number pro-
vide for the service, trained nurse,
who will be sent out by the Pacific
division, will come to the community
and remain in it doing her work ac-
cording to the contract. During her
stay in any particular place the nurse
would inspect school children, do
follow up work in the home, have
baby conferences. teach home hy-
giene, care for the sick and do any
emergency work that might arise.
The amount of work that she does
in community of course, depends
upon the time that she is in it.
This service is offered only to
communities that cannot afford a
fuT-time nurse. Miss Barnes said
that if Winslow will put on good
roll call this fall, it would help to-
ward financing this service. The
proposition will be submitted to the
city council, the school board and
the Red Cross next week for definite
action.

were: Mrs. w. G. TOdt of Kingman,
Miss Mary A. Boyer of Flagstaff,
Mrs Draper of Seligman, Mrs c. H.
Rutherford of Jerome, Mrs, M. ].
Norton of st. Johns, Mrs. l.. G. Hen
ming of Holbrook, Mrs. W. G. Ritten-
house of Williams, and Mrs. Grady
Gammage of Winslow In addition to
these, letters were received from Mrs.
W. A. Linfesty of the Oatman Club
and Mrs. G. W. Cutler of the Kirkland
Club in Skull Valley. Charming
musical numbers were furnished for
the morning program by Mesdames
Franklin, Martin, Liljedahl, Day. and
Miss Evelyn Carver The opening
prayer being offered by the Rev. Geo.
Vernon Harris.
The outstanding feature of the
meeting and one which will be long
remembered by those who were pri-
vileged to hear her was the presence
of Mrs Thomas G. Winter, President
of the General Federation of Women's
Clubs.
At noon the ladies of the Methodist
Church served a luncheon to the dele
gates.
The afternoon meeting was held in
the auditorium of the Baptist Church.
Several musical treats were furnish
ed by Mesdames Day, Liljedahl, Miss
Grim and Mr.. Eugene Woods, the
President Mrs McMullen read a prayer
by Rauschenbausch, which besought
unity and spirituality and was most
appropriately delivered.
,soo1 iUb -IiUbt of tho CnnUpn-
ton came in the afternoon session,
when Mrs. Thos. G. Winter President
of the General Federation of Women's
Clubs, who was introduced by Mrs.
H. c. Lockett, General Director of the
State, delivered a most mastery and
stirring address. Mrs. Winter is
woman of charming and striking per-
sonality. Her address was delivered
with a quiet enthusiasm which was
an inspiration to all who were for
tunate enought to hear her.
1t would be impossible to quote
Mrs Winters address verbatim, but
her essential theme was the Home"
as a unit in civilization and woman
place in the home. She said in part
There must be cooperation among
all classes of women throughout the
world. Life was not created to make
us hate each other; to be cut up into
sections with each section striving
for dominance, but there must be CO.
operation between women If higher
civilization is to be attained Human
lives are linked together by every
influence and it is the wOman's bust
ness to make these influences we'll
balanced, and every true influence is
centered in the home. The purposes
of the home are two-fold namely to

be the reward and rest of the indivi-
dual soul and second in it's economic
value. The home is the unit of civil
welfare and government, the heart
OF democracy or the attempt to in
carnate in humanity the principle of
brotherhood, and since woman is the
heart of the home the essence should
be purity and simplicity. The non
essentials should be eliminated and
the standard genuine, not the accept
ed standards of by-gone days. The
thing to get in the home is the thing
that counts. The home represents
the life of the family and expresses
its innermost desires. The home is
the brooding place for citizens. And
social lie is there adjusted.
The economic value of the home is
almost too great to be measured in
actual figures. In the census of 1922,

FRUCTUOSO GARCIA
KILLED BY FAST MAIL

Struck by Santa Fe fast mail train

Winslow on a velocipede car, Fruc-
tuoso Garcia. 22-year-old Mexican,
whose home is at PenZance, was in
stantly killed, his neck, back, both
legs and arms broken and his body
horribly bruised.
Garcia, who worked on the section
at Penzance, took the speed car Sun
dav morning and started for Winslow.
While he was going along the track
near Havre, the fast mail shot around
curve and bore down upon him.
According to witnesses Garcia ap-
parently became paralyzed and could
not Jump from the car. No. was
so close to him and travelling at such
a rate of speed that it was impos-
sible for the engineer to slow down
before the train hit him.

gated the accident Sunday afternoon,
returned verdict that Garcia came
to his death through an unavoidable
accident.

the fundamentals of the United Sta

cause the mother or wife does these

TRADITIONAL INITIATION GIVEN
TO FIRST--YEAR HI STUDENTS

Saturday night was fearful and
perilous night for freshmen at the
High School. The sophomores gave
them the traditional initiation which
is administered to each succeeding
class of first-year students. Never
did candidate for admittance into
fraternal organization go through
such trepidation as did the Frosh.
The first-year students were blind
folded at the High school AMI were
led through many intricate and dunn
founding maZes until they reached
the bank of the Colorado River on
the Mccoy ranch. This long journey
was taken to see whether they pos
sessed the required qualifications to
become full-f1edged members of the
high school. Then they ate of the
fruit of strength. Some of Frosh
were not sure that they were strong
er as a result after their narrowing
experience; but all declared that the
fruit was indeed strong. 1t happen
ed to be onions.
Next they went over the bridge of
sticks, which was such a perilous
ordeal that all were so frightened
they did not know what it was
all about. Following this was the
sting of death. After every freshman
had proved that he possessed the
required qualifications, he took the
high school vows and received the
high school spirit. Last of all the
Frosh were branded with the high
school "W''.
They are regular students now and
can hardly wait until next fall when
they will be the initiators.

WILLIAMS DEFEATS
W|NSLOW HI TEAM

Winslow pigskin chasers went down
to defeat last Friday in the football
game with the Williams high school
on the latter's field, losing by the
score of 7 to 6. This is the first de-
feat that the local squad has exper-
fenced during the season, putting
WInslow out of the running in the
race for the championship of the
Northern Arizona high school con-
ference.
The local aggregation should have
won the game, but it entered the
contest over confident and failed to
play up to its usual form. Each
member of the squad played good
football individually. AS a team,
however, they failed to work togeth-
err The machinelike, consistent foot
ball playing that was a feature of the
local aggregation in the previous
games this season was conspicuously
lacking in the contest with Williams.
Winslow made it's touchdown early
in the first quarter. The center on
the Williams team attempted to pass
the ball to the men in the backfield,
but it sailed over their heads bounc-
ing on the ground. Tully at left end
darted around Williams defence,
scooped the oval up and sprinted
so yards down the field for touch
down. Hubbard attempted drop kick
but ball hit the upright.
The Williams aggregation scored
its seven points in the third quarter,
pushing the oval down the field and
over the line on a series of plunges.
Cole, full back, made the touchdown
and the drop kick. He was undoub-
tedly the star one of the Williams
team. He runs low, is fast man is
hard to stop.
Rushing full back on the Winslow
squad, played the game of his life,
plunging through the line at every
turn for five or more yards. There
was no team work among the squad,
however, and his great playing was
futile
Straight football marked the game.
Winslow failed to complete single
forward pass; Williams connected
with only one. Aside from the two
touchdowns the game was played in
the middle of the field Winslow
slightly outweighed the Williams ag
rgregation
The local warriors rest tomorrow
playing Gallup here on November 10.
This should prove an easy victory
for the local squad if it plays up to
it's usual form. On November 20,
Thanksgiving Day, Winslow will
journey to Flagstaff to clash with the
Normal lumberjacks.
Negotiations are under way for
return game with the Flagstaff high
school. which is now in the lead for
the championship of the Northern
Arizona conference as a result of
Winslow's defeat last Friday. 1t is
unlikely, however, that Coach Den
man will run the risk of another
game, for if his team should lose to
Winslow, the two squads would again
be tied for the championship.
The lineup of the Williams game
follows: Tully, left end; Hensley,
left tackle; Smith, left guard; G.
Evans, center; Wood, right guard;
Kelly, right tackle; Holm, right end;
Hubbard, right tackle; Clark, quar-
ter back; Rushing, full back; Jane
way, right half.
Substitutions: B. Evans for Jane
way; Janeway for Holm.
