With Doc Tex Mackey at the helm,
Rotarians had an interesting meeting
Tuesday, getting enthusiastic con-
firmation of their faith in Flagstaff S
wonderful future from men qualified
to speak-H. NJ. Albright, field assist
ant in national park service to Direc-
tor Stephen Mather; R. H. ClarksOn of
Kansas City, general transportation
manager for the Harvey system, and
H. P. Anewalt, general freight agent
of the Atehison, Topkea & Santa Fe
railroad.
Mr.. Albright, who is Rotarian, in
summers is superintendent of the
Yellowstone National park. He invit-
ed Flagstaff Rotarians to come there
and get acquainted, as Milt Powers
did last summer.
Mr.. Albright's talk was full of meat.
"Your own national park is as won
derful and is coming to be as well
known as the Yellowstone and Yosem-
tie national parks" he said.
He explained that he has charge of
the budget making for the national
park system, and his mission here now
is to go through this country with
the party of congressman who will ar
rive at Grand Canyon Saturday night
and who will be here Sunday, going
from here out ON the Indian reserva
tions. He will take charge of the par
ty until they arrive here, and then
Superintendent Stephen Janus Of
Leupp will take care of them.
The park service is trying hard to
put over in congress a realization that
Grand Canyon national park should be

SUPERINTENDENT JANUS
THINKS PRESENT ROUTE
OF HIGHWAY is WRONG

Superintendent Stephen Janus of
Leupp told the board of supervisors
here on Tuesday that the attempt to
make highway between Flagstaff
and Winslow along the present line
south of the railroad is big mistake.
He was told that the government
has a great deal to do with choosing
the route, and that $133,000 of forest
reserve money is to be spent between
Flagstaff and Angel along the route
of the present highway.
"Give me half that amount" he
said, "and III build you a better road
all the way from Flagstaff to Wins
low"
Mr.. Janus believes the National Old
Trails highway should go through
Leupp, the Moqui villages, Keams
Canyon, st. Michaels and Gallup. 1t
would be shorter road, a much bet
ter road, and an infinitely more seem
ic road, he says. Nor would it cost so
much to build. He believes the idea
that the highway has to follow close
to the line of the Santa Fe railway
is all bosh, and that when it does it
is passing through the least attrac-
tice scenery we have, as we'll as keep
ing tourists from what most of them
are as much interested in as anything
else-our Indians.
But Mr.. Janus says he isn't going
to worry any, If the county and
state don't build the highway where
he believes it ought to be built, he
will keep right on after highway
on his own hook, through the com
missioner of Indian affairs, and he
expects to be as successful as he as
suredly has been in getting the gov
ernment to build some mighty fine big
bridges on the reservation and some
modern buildings that are the envy
of the reservation superintendents
elsewhere.
Mr. Janus will have the opening of
the new school assembly room at
Leupp when the Hayden congressional
party arrives there Sunday night.
This room, which is part of the fine
new Indian school building, will seat
500 people. The entire building has
frontage of 148 feet and a depth of
225 feet. There are eight class rooms
around an open court, and there are
now 225 pupils in the school. When
Mr.. Janus went to Leupp few years
ago there were less than so pupils
in the school.

G.. H. Spring was sentenced on Sat
urday by Judge J. E. Jones of super

WOMEN HIKERS HIDE
STOLEN BROOCH In A
BIG COCONINO SPUD

Coconino county spuds ought to in
crease in price, since their utility as
hiding places for stolen goods was dis
covered last week by two young wo-
men transcontinental hikers from
Ontario, California. They chose one
of our nice big raw raw potatoes as
the cache for a gold brooch which
they had stolen from Miss Edith Eng
land of Williams and from which
they had removed a $3.50 diamond.
The girls are in county Jail in
Flagstaff.
They were walking east from Cali
fornia. They stopped in Williams at
the home of Mrs. C. A. Moose. Miss
England also has a room there. Last
Thursday the hikers departed, by
train, going west instead of coming
to Flagstaff, as they had at first in
tended. Then Miss England missed
the brooch, a gold watch and a $5
gold piece.
Deputy Sheriff C. Y. Campbell OF
Williams got on their trail, had them
taken off the train at Kingman, went
there and got them and on Saturday,
accompanied by Robert Way of Will
liams, brought them here.
After he got them back TO Williams
they confessed that they had stolen
the stuff. He recovered the diamond.
The rest of the brooch, they explain
ed, he would find inside the largest
potato on the window sill of the cell
they had occupied over night in the
Kingman jail The watch, they said
they had stuck under the seat of the
car they rode in.
The crime constitutes grand larcny.
The women's names are Mrs. Daniel
Egan and Miss Betty Phillips. Both
are 20 years old.

REGULAR ARMY MAN WAS
NOT TOO NON -COMMITTAL
TO PRAISE BATTERY "D'

Major Jones of the regular army,
Fort Bliss, Texas, who spent the
greater part of last week in Flagstaff
checking up material and the general
condition of Battery 3D." left on
Sunday, to make a similar inspection
there. Major Jones, has the reputa-
ton among his fellow officers of do
ing a lot of thinking and an almost
irreducible minimum of talking, but
he did let drop before he left that he
considered the personnel of Flag
staff's crack military organization
very high, and he said a few words
especially commendatory of the offic-
ers-Captain Harry Embach and Lieu
tenants A. j. Mackey, Adolph Boen-
itsch and P. H. Harley-who certainly
have worked hard to keep the organi-
zation at the top notch.
Major Jones' eyes reflected some of
the enthusiasm he failed to voice on
Friday night, when he saw the way
the men snapped into it in the various
drill maneuvers. 1t was the night es-
pecially designated for. inspection,
which was thorough and through
which every member of the battery
came with flying colors.

THE RIGHT OF WAY

Considerable comment was aroused
by an item in the Journal recommends
ing the establishment of arteriai
highway rules in River Falls.
Most people seem to favor the idea
of making Main street an arteriai
highway and having rule that
motor vehicles must stop at the in
tersection before advancing onto this
street. Some further advocate that
this rule also apply to all north-and-
south streets, but this does not seem
so necessary, although it might be a
good idea to stipulate in some manner
as to which residence district streets
are fright way" streets.
The idea of such rules in towns Of
this size is not so much to avoid trail
fic congestion as to prevent accidents.
When two cars approach street in
tersections there is often confusion
of drivers as to which has the right of
way. Sometimes both courteously
stop, then both start together, and
finally after frantic signalling one or
the other gets by, probably by TAR
row margin Again there is the
driver who bulls his way by speeding
past (if he is lucky and makes it,
without regard for others. Other
drivers pay no attention at the
corners, Trusting always to luck.
With stipulated rules the drivers
would at least learn to take precaut-
ion at the intersections, and this in it
self would prevent many accidents.

MISS HANSON HOSPITAL MGR.

The Board of Directors of the
Peoples Hospital voted to accept Mrs.
w. r. Smiths resignation as manager
of the hospital. Miss Hanson, head
nurse at the hospital, was appointed
in Mrs. Smiths place.
Mrs. Smith has given most lavlshiy
Of her time and energy to attend to
the executive affairs of the hospital
for the past year and more. No one
can appreciate what sacrifices it has
meant to her and we can hardly es-
innate what her efforts have meant
for the hospital It was her untir-
ing and unselfish interest in the cause
that have tided the hospital over a
most trying period of stress. Let
US give her vote Of thanks at least
for her services for which she ac-
cepted not penny of remuneration.

Ms Bessie Gunnison and Mrs. j. f.
Morgan attended the Southwestern
section convention, held in Baraooo
April 80; Mrs. Frank Bliss and Mrs.
Brundage attended the Southeastern
convention at Ripon May 3-5.
The talent secured for these two
conventions was exceptionally strong
with men like DR.. Hugh S. Magill,
Chicago, general secretary, lnterna-
tional Sunday School Council of Re
ligious Education, Dr. Nj. A. Honline,
Pasadena, Religious Education Spec
ialist, ard Rev. A. H. Gage, one of the
Directors of Religious Education in
Chicago DR.. Honline was for many
years Dean of the Department of Re
ligious Education of Bonebrake Col
lege, Dayton, and for the last three
years ha has been Associate Super
intendent of the Educational Depart
ment of the International Sunday
School Council of Religious Educa-
ton.
DR.. Honline, in his address on the
subject, 1.-THE Place of the Bible III
Religious Education" stated that af-
ter years of study in the field of sci
ence, not only in America, but in
England ard Germany as WELL he is
fiRmly convinced that there is no con-
1iict between science and the Bible.
He said: "The Bible was not writ
ten to teach science; it was written
for instruction in righteousness.
There is no conflict between science
and the Bible. The conflict is be-
tween the Interpretation of science
and that of the Bible. Men of sell
ence and religion are getting closer
together. They are coming to see
that science came from God and re-
yeals God. Science reveals Gods
method in creation; the Bible reveals
Gods purpose in creation. Science
reveals the mind of God; the Bible re-
veals the heart of God. Science per-
tains to the physical; the Bible per-
tains to the spiritual"
DIR. Magih was Field Secretary for
the National Education association.

the Illinois State Senate, 1911-lA. He
is Recognized as the leader of the re-
ligious movement among Evangelical
people of the continent. DR.. Magill
spoke on "a Cooperative Program OF
Religious Education.
He said: "The Importance OF Christ
ian education is paramount in Amer
lea today. The only hope of the
world today is the establishment of
Christian principles. Gods laws
be obeyed. The world doesn't even
know Gods laws. The Word of God
teaches them. Preaching and the Sun
day school cannot do enough--we
must have more-hence, the need of
weekday religious education. The
New Standard Misunderstanding
Course can be used in any denomina-
ton"
Dr.. Magill talked in St. Paul to the
Kiwanis Club of between two and
| three hundred business men The
mayor sent for him the next morning
| and said that he wished to endorse
| personally what he said to the club.
Business men realize the great need
of religious education. They said,
"If we love society we must get be-
| hind tha nronsrtam"
