THE PARENT TEACHER
MEET AT GRAND CANYON

The Grand Canyon Parent-Teacher
association met Friday evening, No
venber 2. At this meeting it was
decided to change the date of meeting
from Saturday afternoon to the sec
ond Friday evening of each month.
The fathers have shown such an in
terest that it was felt that this move
should be made in order to give them
better chance to attend. A very in
teresting and enjoyable program had
been arranged by Mrs. S. G. Stephens,
and was carried out successfully. The
subject for the evening was Better
English Speech" Mrs. Stephens gave
very good paper on better English
in the home. The school phase of the
subject was brought out in a splendid
talk by one of our teachers, Miss
Roney. She emphasized the fact that
results could not be obtained by gram
mar study alone, but by cooperation
use of good English and constant at
tention to the child's speech. A splen-
did paper, Better English Speech as
a Social and Business Asset" by M.
r. Tillotson was read and enjoyed.
During short intermission be-
tween the program and business ses-
sion homemade candy was passed and
those present spent an amusing and
profitable ten minutes examiping the
clever cartoons and posters for better
English speech which had been pre-
pared and hung on the wall by the
students.
A school Christmas tree was dis
cussed and planned for and COM
mittee to carry out the suggestions
of the assembly was appointed by the
president. MAUDE ENNNIS,

Flagstaff Highs chances for win

boost last Saturday when they held
McBride's eleven of Clarkdale to

tack and slipped over 26 to score
on the locals. While everybody viii
agree that normal attempted to ac-
complish feat that no one team in
hundred could do, that is, playing
two games in two days and having
only eleven men to do it with, this
however, does not discount Flagstaff

PUTS THE QUESTION
SQUARELY BEFORE PEOPLE

In an ad on the back page of this
paper, A. M. Solomon, manager of
Solomon's Ford Garage, puts the
proposition squarely before the peo-
pie as to whether automobiles are
an asset to the community. He does
not dodge the issue but comes
squarely to the point.
Some people forget that while a
car costs money, it may give one al
added incentive for earning money.
What man is earning all the money
he really could or producing all he
could? There are some people who
imagine there is definite limit
But there isn't limit, in any line
of endeavor. Only Jew men have
ever done their best, and they have
MT done it very often. Improve
mans physical fines or menatl out
look and he is sure to do better work
and earn more money.
If Ford car can help a man in
some such way, it may prove valu-
able Investment instead of expense
