HATTIE II. FLAHARTY
WORK FOR ECONOMY
In COUNTY SCHOOLS

The future Of this nation depends
entirely ON the education of the child
rem therefore the schools should be
one of our first considerations. We
can practice economy in many things
but the best is what we need for the
education of our children.
The Navajo County schools should
be in the front rank in the progress
of education. This was in a fair way
of education, according to Hattie H.
Flaharty, democratic candidate for the
office of county superintendent of
schools, who says: This was in a fair
way of being accomplished until this
recent program of so-called economy
was begun. Is it economy when q
school district is abolished to save
taxpayers a few dollars, when by so
doing number Of our boys and girls,
future citizens, are deprived of their
right to an education? Are your dol
lars of more Importance to you than
the training of your children? If it
is economy you seek, do you want to
pay for it with some child's future?

A special party of Peru citizens
witnessed the test of the generator.
which had been installed over a period
of three weeks during that time show
ing marvellous efficiency.
This building formerly was heated
with the usual type of steam boiler
and the use of coal as fuel. The
Bryan steam generator occupies only
a fraction of this space and developed
about five times the efficiency of the
old type boiler by generating steam
in the basement and heating second
floor radiators in period of q min
utes. Heretofore two and one-half
hours were consumed by the old type
boiler
The Bryan generator is started by
turning a switch which may be loca-
ted in any convenient part of the
building. The oil fuel is automatic
ally fed and governed by the heat of
the room, effecting a saving of at
least so per cent or ordinary fuel in
the old type boilers. 1t eliminates
the use of coal, carrying out ashes,
burning out CRATES, no fireman or
janitor, in fact no dirt of any kind and
always is clean without any smoke

Analyze HOlbrOOk Gas. To
See If Helium Is Found

A large amount of gas is coming
from the Taylor-Fuller oil well at
Holbrook this week, and while no one
knows whether or not the gas con-
tains helium, steps have been taken
to analyze it, samples being sent to
chemists.
M. H. Warren, who has charge of
the WE'LL states that it is his belief
that the gas is not helium, as he says
there is lots Of gas that is non-in
flammable aside from helium. How
ever, he admits that he, of course,
cannot be sure without an analysis.
The discovery of the great helium
gas we'll in southern Utah, directly
north of Holbrook, has caused oil
men to feel that care should be eX
ercised in ascertaining whether or not
the gases coming out of the Holbrook
oil wells might not contain helium.
The well just opened up at Wood
side, in southern Utah, has had the
effect Of stimulating the idea that
helium gas may be discovered in the
Holbrook oil field, as this district is
classed as being in the big general
oil belt that extends northward into
Canada. encompassing the intervening
states west Of the Rocky mountains.

The test Thursday night was wit
messed by heating engineer Adam
Graf of Logansport and other men in
terested in heating equipment Those
present unanimously agreed that it
was the most remarkable and effici-
ent heating installation they had ever
witnessed and the production of such
boilers may become one of the very
essential production lines of the Bry-
an Harvester company in the city.
Mr.. Jones is very enthusiastic over
the test and will retain the present
installation and probably install it in
other properties which he owns. Ter
rltory requests are reaching the COM
pany for exclusive representation.
This type of installation is not ex-
pensive for service as the old type

which the fuel can be lighted from an

FAIR GROUNDS AND
BUILDINGS RLY
READY TO BE USED

Though the state fair this year does
not open until November 10, the
grounds and buildings are nearly
ready for occupancy and within few
days they will start to install the ex-
hibits and displays of the fourteen de-
partments.
For the past several weeks the fair
grounds have presented a scene of
busy activity. The unloading and
stabling of 500 race horses that will
constitute the main attraction of this
years program, the thorough prepare
ton of the race course, the repainting
and renovation of buildings, the con-
struction of booths and the hauling in
of supplies, all contribute to the air
o. bustling activity to be found about
the fair grounds these days.

Use of being the largest attended and
most successful exhibition ever pre-
scented to the people of the south
west Low railroad rates insure a
goodly attendance from points in
western Texas, New Mexico and
southern California and from all parts
of Arizona.
Many of the counties will havesspec-
ial exhibits, and this, together with
the opportunity offered for state
gatherings and family reunions, will
tend to increase the attendance at
the fair from outside points.
Plenty of band music, spectacular
attractions, carnival features and aug
mented displays in every department
will afford pleasing variety to every
person who comes to Phoenix during
the week of November 1915, inclusive.

CHEVROLET SERVICE
IS AN OUTSTANDING
REASON OF SUCCESS

! The CarrOn Motor company, which
has established an agency in Winslow,
takes especial pride in the repair and
parts service they provide for the con-
venience of Chevrolet drivers. Lee
Carron of Flagstaff is the manager
of the Winslow agency, and Hugh
Tilman, local representative. Con-
corning the Chevrolet service, Mr..
Tilman says:
"One of the most noticeable tenden-
cies during the last year and a half
in the automotive industry has been
the stress placed by all motor car
companies on dealers service and
the efforts many of the companies are
making to help their dealers in their
service work in every possible way.
''Flat rate prices, uniform, modern
tool and general equipment, constitute
some of the big movements that have
been emphasized lately to make ser
vice more efficient and reliable for
the general public.
"Along the lines of service educa-
ton, the Chevrolet Motor company has
a system of service schools where the
proper use of tools and equipment is
taught in addition to general shop
management, shop operation and fat
rate service.
"Seven schools are established, one
in each of the seven manufacturing
zones. The schools are established in
Flint, Mich, GAINESVILLE, Wis, st. Louis
Mo-, Cincinnati Ohio, Buffalo, N. VI
TarrytOwn, N. Y, and Oakland, Cal
Each school period lasts for five
days. Each school has two instruc-
tors. Each member in the school is
given special and general class in
struction in every phase of repair,
which includes the complete building
of motor testing it and tearing it
down. The use of the proper tools
for every operation is emphasized.
Examinations are given when the
members enter the school and again
upon leaving.
"The Chevrolet company has the
dealers themselves a tt e n d these
schools and later members of each
dealers service department
"The Chevrolet Motor company be-
lieves that proper training and in
structiOn on car upkeep and repair
will make the dealer and service or
ganization more efficient in the ser
vicing and repair of Chevrolet cars.
More efficient work at first rate prices
means a lower upkeep cost for Chew
rolet owners which still further backs
up the company's slogan for economi-
cal transportation"
