MANY IMPROVEMENTS
TO FLAGSTAFF STREETS

At regular meeting of city council
Tuesday night the report of the street
and alley committee showed lot OF
being DONE
Fine avenue has been graded and
surfaced a block west from North
Beaver; also two blocks of Grand Can
yon avenue from Walnut street west.
Excavations for sidewalk on the west
side of North San Francisco street
north one and half blocks from West
Cherry have been finished. The con-
crete work will be done as soon as
work now being done on Grand Can
.yon avenue is completed. The grad
ing and surfacing of block on Ken
drick street from Elm avenue south
is almost done. Curb, gutter and side
walk have been built on the south side
of Elm between Kendrick and Sit
greave. So have the curb and gutter
on Sitgreave from Elm avenue south
to Chautauqua avenue. The school
board has built additional gutter along
the south side of Elm in front of the
new high school building to divert rain
water. A sidewalk has been ordered
in two places on the north side of
Grand Canyon avenue.
Council decided to close the city
tourist park for this season on Novem-
ber i, traffic having reached the point
where there is considerably less reve-
nue. than expense.

GOVERNMENT WORKING TO.
ELIMINATE WOOD WASTE

While in the past the United States
government, through the forest serv-
ice department, has confined itself
largely to preservation and protection
of forests and timber, an equally SER
ious problem is now being faced and
in a measure is already in process of
solution, that of eliminating wood
waste, of making every chip count, :"
according to Supervisor Ed Miller of
Coconino forest. The United States
government, as we'll as saw mill
operators and other large timber own
ers have come to full realization that
there is much waste of wood, from the
standing tree to the completed wooden
structure, and all are now co-operat-
ing to minimize that waste, it was
stated. Rapidly decreasing timber
supply has hastened and is stimulat-
ing the movement to eliminate wood
waste.
George M. Hunt, in charge of
United States Wood Preservation
laboratories at Madison, Wis, who
recently visited Forest Supervisor Mil
ler in Flagstaff, is now visiting gov
ernment foresters and mill men in
northern California, Oregon and
Washington, with a view to better CO.
operating with the lumber men in uti-
lizing in practicable and profitable
ways the heretofore classed useless
by-products of the lumber manufac-
turing industry. Not only is the gov
eminent carrying on extensive expert
ments in utilizing raw wood material,
it is said, but an effort is being made
to prevent the alarming waste of once
used but good boxing, building and
other wood materials. However, the
present great waste in process of lum-
ber manufacture is most serious con-
cerning the United States govern
ment's timber and lumber experts at
present

MAN KILLED in AUTO
SMASH; OWNER-DRIVER
OF CAR In JAIL HERE

Andrew Duthie, well-known lumber
jack who had worked for the Saginaw
& Manistee Lumber Co., at Williams
and later for the w. NJ. Cady Lumber
Co. at McNary, is in the county jail,
Flagstaff, as the result of an accident
to his car while he was driving and
in which one of the three men riding
with him sustained injuries from
which he later died in the Kingman
hospital.
The accident occurred the last of
last week on the National Old Trails
highway near Peach Springs. The
dead mans name is Pelton. Duthie
was on his way in his Studebaker six
car to California. He had picked up
his three travelling companions on the
road, two east of Flagstaff and Pelton
west of Ashfork.
The two other passengers are IN
Flagstaff to appear as witnesses. They
told Sheriff W. A. Campbell Duthie
was intoxicated when the accident oc-
Cured and that they had urged him
not to drive so fast. The car left the
road and turned over as they were
meeting some other cars. 1t is thought
charge of manslaughter will be
brought against Duthie. One of the
men here as witness was badly bunged
up in the accident.
Though Peach Springs is in Mohave
county, the accident occurred about a
mile over the line. in Coconino county.
Duthie was arrested by Mohave coun-
ty officers, who asked Sheriff Camp
bell to bring him here for hearing.

WATER AND DEPOT HELD
FIRST PLACE AT ROTARY

Practically all of Tuesdays Flag
staff Rotary club program was de-
voted to water discussion, though a
few minutes attention was given to
the proposed new Flagstaff depot,
both of which subjects are taken up
more in detail elsewhere in this issue.
Ray Babbitt was the helmsman for
the day, welding the gavel gracefully
before, during and after a brief talk
by himself in explanation of the pro-
gram. President C. b. Wilson had
called the meeting to order, and be-
tween the two of them they managed
to find few hardened criminals who
had to be fined to bring them back
into closer approximation to confor-
nifty with the conventional, tradi-
tional, straight and narrow. Among
these notorious incorrigibles were Sec
retary Frank Chisholm, Ed Babbitt,
Bill Cady, l. B. Koch, Scout McCor-
mick, Billy Switzer, Tex Mackey, c..
B. Wilson and Mart Fronske.
George H. Myers sang a solo, his
sister, Miss Elsa Myers, accompanying
on the piano and joining in on the
chorus, their work being highly ap-
preciated.
|. B. Koch of city council then took
up the water and depot questions.
1t was most interesting meeting,
developing a lot of enthusiasm as it
became apparent that we are fast
nearing a solution of our water prob
lem and also seem to be scheduled for
a new depot in the near future.
Visiting Rotarians: Alfred Skeels,
John Hinton, both of Williams. Other
guests: Miss Myers, George H. Myers,

ET'TER'S CONCESSIONS SOLVE WATER FINANCES
DEMOCRATS IN ARIZONA IN
GRAND CHAOTIC SCRAMBLE

1t is evident the democrats of
Arizona are badly ratified over just
whom they are running for presi-.
dent. Editor Bill Kelly of the SAT-
ford Guardian, a democratic paper,
prints a real splash of candidates,
pictures and labels 'em: "For presi-
dent, Chas. w, Bryan. For COVER
nor, Geo. w. p. Hunt. For Vice
President, John w. Davis" He had
the right names under the right
pictures too.
Editor Bill evidently is for La
Toilette, will vote for Davis and
hopes Coolidge is elected, but is so
used to the name Bryan on demo-
cratic ticket that he just automati-
cally put Brother Charlie in Bill's
old place.
The folks in Arizona have come
to the conclusion that they don't
want congress mussing in and
tangling things up for the next
four years, consequently are voting
for Coolidge. They know he is go
ing to carry on in the interest of
the United States. That's safe
bet. Why disturb the country with
a presidential contest? The people
want less politics and more busi-
ness.

HISTORY RECALLED In
OLD COINS FOUND UNDER
ROCK NEAR FLAGSTAFF

Ted Spencer of Flagstaff First Ma
tional bank staff, who is numismast
of several years standing, had wind
fall the other day that raised his nu-
mismastic grade lot and also gave
his imagination swift diversion into
romantic conjecture.
A numismast, like what Ted is, is
collector of old coins He doesn't
boast of ability to collect those late
minted, but will take almost any risk
to get real old one.
Recently a Mexican who was work
ing with the road gang east of. here
on the Flagstaff Winslow highway, in
turning over a big rock, found under
it a leather sack in which there were
80 copper coins. The sack was old and
rotted nearly to pieces. The latest of
the coins was minted in the SOS, while
the oldest was dated 1923. Ted bought
the lot.
Most of the pieces were in fine
state of preservation, few badly
worn. They are an interesting lot.
Imagination can find many thrilling
explanations for the cause of the
abandonment of the coins by their for
mer owner. He may have wandered
off and died of starvation, because
from the date of the latest coin it is
safe guess he put the money under the
rock some years before this country
was settled by white people. Or he
may have been murdered by Indians.
The oldest coin is a Hibernia, with
the head of George the First of En-
gland, dated 1923.
One issued during the campaign of
William Henry Harrison shows log
house and the legend, "The Hero of
Tippecanoe, the peoples choice"
A Washington cent is larger than
our present half-dollar.
One of the coins is stamped, "Sub-
stitute for shinplaster." Date is 1887.
Back in the 1850's hard times was
rampant and "to facilitate trade"
many merchants issued coins of their
own. One of these was issued by
Phalon, barber at 35 Bowery, New
York, has shears and comb on one
side and on the other calls attention
to "Phalon's new and splendid style
of hair cutting"
The days when the u. S. bank was
going up and down and finally down
and out were prolific of coins, some
of which were extremely partisan and
in some cases sarcastic. One candi-
dates coin says: "The constitution as
| understand it," above mule, which
is labeled Roman firmness." On the
reverse side a man with sword, pre-

ASHURST SPEAKING FOR
HUNT BOASTS OF HIDING
HIS OPINION OF COMPACT

There are two classes Of politicians.
One has decided opinions ON public
matters of consequence annd announ-
ces them. The other never has-at
least never announces-an opinion on
anything of consequence until the pub
lie has given unmistakable evidence of
its stand. One of the latter class Of
politicians spoke at Flagstaff court
house on Friday night.
U. S. Senator Henry f. Ashurst
came as the mouthpiece of Gov Geo.
w P. Hunt, not yet recovered enough
to stump on his own behalf. AshursU
proudly announced that he never yet
had expressed an opinion either for or
against the ratification by Arizona of
the Colorado river compact
Then he suavely explained that
there no longer exists any reason for
an expression of opinion, as demo
Gratis and republicans have the same
belief regarding the ratification"
People who have read Senator
Ashurst's speeches in Washington on
subjects already disposed of by vote
OF the people or congressional action,
will await with interest his speech Of
advocacy of the pact or his fierce de-
nunciation of it after it is settled the
one way or other by this state.
There was a good-sized crowd out
to hear Henry dodge an issue that
Governor Hunt, for whom he was the
mouthpiece, certainly would not have
lodged had he been here to do his
own talking. Whatever may be said
against Hunt, no one can say he trims
his opinions to every political breeze.
He lets 'em out where the breezes can
flap 'em and make 'em look as pretty
as patched pair of flannel drawers
on a clothesline.
Larry Williams of Williams, chair
man of the democratic county central
committee, introduced Senator Ash
urst and the other speakers VIM. d
Claypool, candidate for state corpora
ton commissioner and Tom c. Foster,
up for reelection as state mine in.

GOV. HUNT FAVORS
ATTEMPT TO DRIVE
5000 DEER ACROSS

Governor Hunt requested George
Mccormick of Flagstaff, to submit a
contract to the state by which he will
agree to drive a herd of 5000 deel
from the Kaibab forest on the north
rim of the Grand Canyon to the south
rim for the purpose of restocking the
forest within the Grand Canyon ma
tional park and the great Tusayan ma
tional forest.
Mccormick declares that he car
drive a herd of deer as easily as a
herd of cattle and states that he can
deliver the deer to the south rim
This unusual feat, perhaps the great
est of it's kind ever attempted con
templates the herding of the deer, the
descent with them into the depths OF
the Grand Canyon where the deer will
swim the Colorado river, and the as
cent of the south wall of the canyon
to the great forest extending south
ward.
Mccormick has interested number
of Flagstaff people in the project and
the plan is declared to be feasible.
Sportsmen throughout the northern
part of the state are enthusiastic over
the prospect of again having deer in
the great forests of the north.
"If Mr.. Mccormick can bring the
deer over we will pay him for them" !"
declared Governor Hunt. "If the game
department is out of funds, am
sure that the small amount of money
needed to secure these deer can be
raised by popular subscription. This
plan of restocking our depleted for
ests of Arizona from the great herd
of the Kaibab forest seems to be the
logical solution of the over-stocking
problem there and far better than the
proposed slaughter of thousands of
these deer"
If this plan is successful worked
out sportsmen say that the Kaibab
herd will be the means of restocking
every mountain range in the state
with deer, making Arizona the sports
mans paradise of America for all
time.

FLAGSTAFF Hi ELEVEN
BEAT PRESCOTT IN DASH
FOR CHAMPIONSHIP

Flagstaff Hi won from Prescott Hi
at Prescott last Friday, despite gen.
eral lack of pep due to late hours and
too much popcorn at the circus here
the night before and the long ride to
Prescott next morning before the
game. 1t is to be hoped they will not
present SO Indifferent front to
Winslow Hi tomorrow. The latter
team beat Prescott by a much wider
margin than Flagstaff did. Coach
Howard Denman and his Flagstaff Hi
proteges are going after tomorrow's
game and if they cop it will just about
cop the Northern Arizona champion
ship, ALSO
Here's the way the Prescott Jour
nalMiner saw the game there:
Hating their peppy advance too
soon to take more than momentary
advantage of Flagstaff's lack of form,
the Badgers scored on the Flagstaff
high team, held lead in parts of two
quarters and then slumped before the
growing power of the nifty little ma
chine of Denman's. The score was %
to 6.
A strong and gusty wind that play
ed hob with the aerial game on both
sides, freaked Prescott's game. De-
Quoting two lucky breaks, the score
should have been 10 to 0.
Prescott executed one march down
the field, but it didn't last the re-
quired 800 feet. Flagstaff niggered
touchdown when Lacy snapped back
high to Cline and Flagstaff forward
established his closely marcelled form
right around the pigskin. Cline inter-
cepted Flagstaff pass and dashed 33
yards through a broken field for Pres
colts only touchdown. The rest of the
the first quarter. Flag, driven to the
north goal, was forced to kick. The
strong wind sailed the ball high and
carried it down almost on the line of
scrimmage where it was blown back
of the goal line. A Flagstaff man
tackled the ball instead of letting it
go for a touchback.
Had Prescott's line played as well
as its backfield men requested it to
with numerous high pitched demands
and had the backfield responded to
the lines prayers for a little more
activity, the rally that carried the
ball down field in series of line
smashes and two grand forward
passes, would have lasted out the
game and the locals would be on the
long end of the score.
But it is no discredit to Flagstaff
which showed up with a stocky, sturdy

CORNERSTONE FEDERATED
CHURCH ADDITION LAID
IMPRESSIVELY ON SUNDAY

Sunday morning IN connection with
the usual morning worship the con-
gregation of the Federated church for
mally dedicated the cornerstone of
their new community house now in
process of construction.
The leading officials of all the
church societies were called upon to
take part in the formal exercises. Mrs.
u. B. Ormond, representing the
Women's society, read the prayer.
Miss Etha Osborn, president of the
Christian Endeavor society, read the
scripture. The pastor, Rev. HI. F. Soft
ley, preached the sermon dealing with
the fact that belief in and confession
of personal faith in Christ is the true
cornerstone of Christian life.
The congregation then marched out
to the cornerstone position, where
Carl Mayhem of the Mayhem studio
took the picture which will be in
cluded in the records to be placed in
the cornerstone.
Tom L. Rees, superintendent of the
Bible school, spread the mortar while
the masons placed the stone in posi-
tion as p. II. Harley, representing the
Baptist society, read the formal scrip
ture sentences. DIR. M. G. Fronske,
president of the church cabinet, then
placed the records in the cornerstone,
speaking briefly about the fine spirit
and faith which is evident throughout
tne whole federated organization.
The exercises were concluded by the
formal dedication of the stone by the
pastor, followed by the choir singing
an appropriate anthem.
As stated in previous issues of The
Sun the addition to the Federated
church is designed to provide a gym
nasium and social and Sunday school
rooms for community and church use.

FIREMEN AND KIDDIES
GIVE SNAPPY FIRE DRILL

That Flagstaff's business and resi-
Dental districts are reasonably we'll
protected from fire damage, and that
the school children here know just how
and what to do in case of fire, was
we'll demonstrated in a "fire preven-
tion week" drill put on jointly by the
Flagstaff fire department and Emer
son school last Friday morning.
Within 81 seconds from the sound
ing of the alarm approximately 800
children, ranging in age from six to Is
years, in orderly manner vacated the
ten school rooms and were outside be-
yond the danger zone" Incidentally
within two minutes and 46 seconds
from the blast of the fire whistle
members of the fire department as
sembled at the fire station from their
various places of business, arrived at
the school, "the scene of the fire." and
had the hose playing on the burning
building" Considering the distance,
practically a quarter of a mile from
the fire station, the run was a splen-
did record, local business men think.

NORMAL ELEVEN PILED
UP BIG SCORE AGAINST
JEROME IN FIRST GAME

Normal football eleven beat Jerome
high "a to 6 at McMullen field, Flag
staff, Saturday 1t was Normaps first
game of the season.
The visitors were handicapped in
size, and due to local conditions were
forced to leave some of their first
string men at home, which further
lessened their chances of victory.
Jerome kicked off. Luna returned
the ball to the 45-yard line. Camp
went around the end for five yards.
Pete Brown took the ball under his
arm and went the remaining SO yards
for the first touchdown. The total
time required in making this first
score was one minute and Is seconds.
A few minutes later the Lumber
Jacks became over-confident and with
some good forward passing, the Je-
rome aggregation gained ground so
fast that they were nearly to the goal
line before Normal held them for
downs. After the Lumberjacks had
kicked, supposedly, out of danger, Je-
rome, with a well timed and executed
forward pass, from Wheel to Dicus took
