ANNOUNCEMENT PARTY is :
GIVEN FOR MISS WILLETS

On Saturday evening May 10, a
happy group of friends of Miss Helen
Willets assembled upon invitation at
the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
McCauley at sos Kinsley Ave.
Two hours were spent in playing
bridge, at the end of which time
Master Burton Sprankle, charmingly
attired as cupid with his bow and
arrow, entered the room bearing a
tiny box and sealed envelope. The
box he delivered to Miss Willets and
the envelope to Mrs. Grady Gammage
who read the happy message announc-
ing the. coming marriage of Miss
Helen Willets to Rev. G. V. Harris
on June 4th at Phoenix.
Miss Willets then opened the box
and displayed the two beautiful rings
which were greatly admired by her
friends.
Miss Irene McCauley announced
Mrs. E. F. Matthews and Miss Louise
Dadey as having won the bridge score
prizes. These the winners promptly
gave to Miss Willets.
Following this the delighted
guests were served refreshments after
which they left for their homes ex-
pressing hearty congratulations to
Miss Willets, and thanks to their hos
tess for a very happy evening.
On last Wednesday evening Miss
Willets was the honor guest at an
other social affair upon which
occasion large number of her friends
met at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs
Paul T. Liljedahl for bridal shower
in honor of her.
A delightful and appropriate pro-
gram was carried out much to the
enjoyment of those present, after
which the guests were invited to the
dining room to see the beautiful array
of gifts which had been placed there
| f Miss Willets. Following this, the
friends enjoyed most delicious re-
freshments served by the hostess.
Miss Willets is a very popular and
efficient teacher of Spanish in the
local High School and the people OF
Winslow are very happy with the
news that she will remain a part o1
the community as the bride of Rev
G. " Harris, pastor of the Episcopal
| church.

URGE BARS BE
MAINTAINED At
STATE BORDER

The committee appointed by Cover
nor Hunt to Investigate the foot and
mouth disease situation in California
in it's report turned in, recommended
quarantine be ordered, and that the
Arizona authorities be as vigilant as.
possible in seeking to keep the stock
plague out of this state. Conditions
in California are very serious, the re-
port pointed out, and the malady is
not abating. Emphasis was given in
a portion of the report to the CO.
operation extended to the AriZonans
by both state and federal authorities
in California, courtesieS that enabled
the committeeman to perform their
task in quicker time than expected.
The members of the committee who
made the trip to California were pres
ent when the report was handed to
the governor, but it mainly was pre-
pared by A A. Johns of Prescott.
In summarizing the disease, the
committee said: 'In this report it is
unnecessary to give an account OF the
origin or the spread of the different
outbreaks that have occurred in the
limited States of this particular di-
sease. 1t will be sufficient to state
that the outbreak of 1914 and which
lasted for two years and was the
largest that has yet occurred in the
United States. 1t spread into 22
states and the District of Columbia.

NATIONAL MUSIC WEEK
GENERALLY OBSERVED

During the war the general public
of America came to a realization OF
the great power of music; now 1t is
to be shown that music is as great
a force in peace as in war. AT the
biennial convention of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs held at
Chautauqua, N. Y. in 1920 resolutions
were passed pledging its support to
all good American Music, to recog-
nize and use American Music and to
encourage American composers. Ihe
slogan Let us make good music pop
ular music good, was adopted. Thls
work has been vigorously pushed thru
the various departments to stimulate
better music in the homes, IN the
schools, the churches, the Sunday
schools, in industrial center5, in the
moving picture shows, lodges, CLUBS,
etc. Good results have been accom-
plished all over the country. 1t Is
a step in the right direction toward
making America great musical

FIRST PROGRAM
AUQUA
GIVEN TUESDAY

Next week marks the opening of
Chautauqua.
The programs which are staged in
the auditorium" of the Washington
school ought to interest every man,
woman and child in the city of Wins
low or territory surrounding
1t is local enterprise in the way
of being sponsored by local people
who in all cases have to stand behind
them and give their personal backing
and financial insurance of their sue
cess.
There is no form of entertainment
which offers the diversity of talent
that is offered over the chautauqua
or lyceum platform. Another thing
that can be depended upon is the fact
that every program is clean and there
is nothing said or done that will in
any way cause embarrassment to the
auditors. This is something that
cannot always be said Of some popu-
lar forms of entertainment.
The program offered here was pro-
cured at considerable expense. There
are five consecutive days of the pro-
gram, two programs a day, making
ten shows" during the five days.
Reduced to the cost, based on a season
ticket, the cost per program to the
holder of the season ticket is just
271a cents That is not large by any
means, in fact, it is small. The fact
that it is necessary to get from so to
rs cents for the separate programs
for others than those buying the
season tickets indicates the value of
planning ahead and getting hold of
the season tickets.
The first program is that of Monday
May 20 when a group of Hawaiians
will thrum their stringed instruments
and sing the plaintive music of their
native land.
The Pickard Royal Hawaiians are
said to be one of the best aggregations
of their class in this work and are
guaranteed to give satisfactory per-
formances for those who like their
quaint music.
Another part of the opening is the
lecture of DR.. Robert Parker Miles.
This speaker is an old entertainer on
the platform. He has been with the
chaurauquans for long time through
sheer merit of his words. He has
made a lifetime study of the high
fights in the life of great men This
study is one that would not be under
taken by the average man. He cpl
tomizes his story of men, learned
through years of study in an hour or
so.
There are the Elias Day entertain
ers on the program. The name o:
Elias Day is a shibboleth in the world
OF lyceumites. His own work and
that of companies he has brought in
to the field are their own guarantee.
The Cheney Concert Company has
an enviable reputation in the field of
public entertainment. Their enter
tainment is musical and follows the
lighter vein.
Two lectures on the fourth day by
a lecturer of considerable fame ought
to attract attention of students of
world problems. Germany and Russia
are two spots on the eastern continent
that are focusing the attention of the
world. This and more are to be given
to those who attend the chautauqua
programs during the week of May 20.
There is a lot of value in a chau-
tauque ticket when used by the owner.
