The Coconino sun., 1923-04-27

The meeting was one of the largest
attended and most successful held in
a number of years.
A part of the day was spent in dis
cussing newspaper troubles and prob
lens including about every feature of
the well-known game. The free prop
aganda agent was heartily scored as
a menace to the newspaper business.
The discussion of advertising rates
disclosed the fact that the members of
the association were still paying peak
prices for labor, paper and equipment
but that printing and advertising rates
charged by them were not raised to
meet this increased cost of produc-
ton
The association ordered a telegram
sent Governor Geo. w. p. Hunt con-
graduating him on the appointment
of that stalwart old pioneer editor,
Major Kelly of the Douglas Internal
ional, as state historian and express
ing their hearty approval of the Sc
lection.

OLD FOREST SERVANT
VISITS FLAGSTAFF AGAIN

Mr.. and Mrs. John C. Hughes of
Seattle, Washington, have been spend
ing few days visiting points Of in
terest around Flagstaff. They are on
their way home from an auto trip
which has taken them since last June,
covering the northern route into New
York and down the coast to Florida
and southern route to Texas, Phoenix
and Flagstaff. There was one very
good reason why John G. wanted to
come back via Flagstaff. About Is
years ago he was. an expert lumber
man in the forest service stationed
here. When he left here he went back
to Seattle and started in the lumber
game for himself, landing with both
feet on the right side of the ledger
before the big slump came after the
war.
