afternoon when indications were fair
weather.
1t was the wettest snow in years.
Good thing. 1t was hard enough to
wade through as it was. If it had been
dry it would have been waist deep or
more.
All day Wednesday the five-ton
caterpillar pushed a snow pillow
through the street making parallel
channels so traffic could go on.
A phenomenon was the heavy thun-
der that accompanied the snow storm
part of Tuesday night. 1t was noted
also in the snow storm last week.
The temperature will be noted in
the weather chart for the week, pre-
pared by U. S. Weather Observer
George t. Harrington, who has very
kindly consented to prepare one each
week hereafter for readers of The
Sun.
Tourist automobile travel was held
up here during the latter part of the
storm until yesterday afternoon, when
several cars started west following
the opening up of the road with a
snow plow. Cars will have no further
trouble from this storm. Ed Babbitt
of the E. D. Babbitt Motor Co. re-
ported at three yesterday afternoon
that the roads were open both east
and west. Rabbits tow truck broke
the road yesterday from Flagstaff to
Winona. Probably so tourist cars
were temporarily stranded on the
county roads.
The wet snow, freezing occasionally
coated electric wires and the trouble
men of the Flagstaff Electric Light
Co., Western Union Telegraph Co.
and Mountain States Telephone &
Telegraph Co. have had their hands
full. Prompt hard work has prevent
ed patrons being given any great in
convenience. The railroad and tele-
phone wires between Williams and
Ashfork were down but are fast be-
ing repaired.
Passenger trains were delayed a
very little in some instances, freight
trains more.

ELKS BUSY ON WATER

r. E. Mcdonnell gave an interest
ing talk Tuesday night preceding the
regular Elks lodge meeting at their
home. The Elks are solidly behind
the proposed Flagstaff water develop
ment. A committee was appointed to
cooperate, consisting of Ralph Davis,
chairman, Lee Carron and C. M.
Archer.
Past Grand Exalted Ruler L. w.
Cress, district deputy for the north
half of this state, made Tuesday night
the occasion of his official visit to
this lodge and gave the boys an en-
couraging, helpful talk.
w. M. Cady Jr. rode the goat-the
rambunctious, hard -butting initiation
goat, and emerged from the fray all
SCARED up. Marvin Leamon, ini-
tiated some time ago but for some
reason escaping the goat episode un-
til this week, also tried to ride the
brute, and the usual result followed
the goat rode him.
After adjournment there was fine
hot tamale lunch, catered by Griff.

MOTHER OF MRS. v. NJ. SLIPHER
DIES IN WARSAW, NEW YORK

Mrs. v. M. Slipher left by early
morning train Friday for Buffalo, N.
Y, because of a telegram received the
afternoon before advising of the criti-
cal illness of her mother, Mrs. S. J.
Munger. Mrs. Slipher received en-
route the sad news that her mother
had passed away, and she wired the
family here, that she would go direct
ly to Warsaw, N. Y. where the funeral
would be held the first of the week.
Mrs. Munger since the death of her
husband had been making her home
with daughter at Wilson, N. Y She
had always enjoyed good health and
was about the house until within a
few days of the end. She will be re-
membered here by some as she spent
the winter of 1901 here with her
daughters family. Excepting visits
to relatives her whole life was passed
at Warsaw and the nearby villages of
CASTLE and Gainesville. She received
her education at the local academy
and possessed a remarkably keen
mind, often astounding the younger
minds by the quickness and accuracy
she, could do difficult problems by
mental arithmetic a subject she must
have thoroughly mastered at the
academy. 1t was in her neighborhood
that DR.. David Jordan was reared
who likewise attended the Warsaw
academy.
Her life was cheerfully and Loyalty
devoted to her family, church and
friends. She leaves to mourn her,
three daughters and one son, sister
and brother, many other relatives
and wide circle of friends.

postponed until the January meeting
to be held January 15 at the home of
Mrs. Decker Williams.
After the business meeting the hos

delicious sandwiches, cookies and cof-

casion, and with a cheerful fire in the
fireplace the guests left with feel
ing of being well entertained.

WOMAN'S CLUB GENERAL
MEETING FINE PROGRAM
Continued from Page One1

The music section deserves much
credit for the enjoyable program. The
first number was beautiful carol
sung by Mrs. C. B. Wilson, with Mrs.
Will Compton accompanying at the
piano and Mrs. T. 0. Bellwood with
the violin. The junior music members
rendered several beautiful old English
carols. These singers were Loretta
and Ann Jakle, Josephine Wilson, AL
thea Jones, Charlotte Stevenson, Mary
Wilson, Kathleen Conrard, Nadine
Thompson, Katherine Mcnamara and
Minnie Hilkins, who played the piano
accompaniments.
Miss Ruth Burmese read a we'll
written, comprehensive paper, "Christ-
mas Carols,'' prepared by Mrs. G. B.
Wilson, illustrated by ancient carols,
sung by training school children who
had been drilled by Miss Mary Schu-
maker.
The following members of the
music division beautifully sang selec-
tons from the cantata, Christmas
King" Mrs. E. G. Miller, Miss Selma
Aas, Mrs. j. D. Jackson, Mrs. Lorna
Jessup, Mrs. T. A. Stahl, Mrs. j. G.
Clarke, Mrs. Charles Hillebrandt,
Mrs. Decker Williams, Mrs. C. B.
Wilson. Mrs. Will Compton accom-
panied on the piano.
The last part of the program con-
sisted of two charming fancy dances,
"Pompadour," by Helen Armstrong
and "The Skaters" by Willie Smith
and Dorothy Jones.
Dainty refreshments were offered.
Mrs. C. B. Wilson and Mrs. Lorna
Jessup poured.

back The Citadel is 341a miles from
Flagstaff, and it is 45 miles to WI
patki by way of the Citadel. There
are two bad cinder hills on the direct
road to Wupatki that are hard to ne
gotiate coming back this way.
Wupatki is directly northeast of the
Heisser ruin, the latter being head
quarters Of the old Heisser range and
spring.
Because of the size of the tract set
aside-more than 1000 acres-very
likely the Citadel ruins may also be
included. But many of the ruins are
on privately owned land. The gov
ernment owns every odd-numbered
section out there. If the monument
includes any privately owned land,
the owners have not been advised.
Babbitt Bros. Trading Co. owns much
of the land in that section. p. J.
Moran Of that company said this week
that there would be no difficulty in
the government acquiring any Of their
land desired to include in the monu-
ment.
1t is likely the government will do
some work in reconstructing many Of
the ruir6. Also, roads will likely be
built taking them more accessible
and connecting them. Very likely,
also, man will be placed there in
charge of the group.
Flagstaff people have felt for some
tilne-that the government should
take charge and protect them. The
news. that the first step has been
made will therefore be received here
with qualification.
With this are shown pictures of two
of the ruins in that section, both of
which may be, very likely are, in
cluded in the newly-created national
monument, and a diagram showing
the rooms in one of the ruins.

WHAT'S A RADIO TRIUMPH
COMPARED TO NEW BOY?

Frank Miller, the radio man, got
WGY on the radio Tuesday night. He
thought, it came through SO nice and
clear, that pretty near the sum of all
earthly bliss had been reached.
But early next morning he got an
other WGY, this time by special mes
senger, and compared to the one he
got the night before this last was in
finitely much more in the joy scale.
The first WYG meant Schenectady,
N. Y. The one next morning was the
place where little baby boys come
from. 1t is an especially nice young
ster, a welcome addition to the other
nice ones Mr. and Mrs. Miller are SO
proud of.

insight into human nature than the
first President. He had a remarkable
fondness for his own community and
his own state, but they faded into the
background when nationwide prob
lens arose. Unlike many public men,
he wasn't eternally wondering what
would please the voters OF his dis
trict, but constantly had in mind the
things that would benefit his country
as a whole.
Much is being said and written in
these days about Americanism. II the
men, women and children OF the
United States want to know what real
A-msTi5anisn is let them deive into
the history-particularly the sayings
and writings-of Washington. No n
can study the intense patriotism and
love Of country OF this great man
without being a better citizen.
Washington spoke and wrote upon
almost every subject under the sun.
The political maxims of Washington
make mighty interesting reading at
the present time. Some Of them are
as follows:
THE aggregate happiness OF society
which is best promoted by a practice
Of a virtuous policy, is. or ought to
be, the end Of government"
Influence is not government"
LET us have a Government, by
which onr lives. liberties, and prop
critics will be secured"
Tomorrow We pay tribute to this
great man. We harken back to the
days when ur country, these great
United States. fought against the ty-
rannical rule of a monarchy and es
tabIished a democracy free
try. And there was no greater man
in those trying conflicts than the
Father of Our Country,"-George
