Fostering the Winslow Boy Scout
movement, the Frank Perkins post OF
the American Legion on Monday
night held an enthusiastic meeting
and luncheon at which the Scouts
were the special guests of honor
The affair was marked by good
fellowship and inspiration, practically
all the Legionnaires turning out to
welcome the Scouts, the Representa-
tives of the Auxiliary and the bust
ness mems council.
After the opening exercises and
the invocation by Rev. t. E. Elgin,
Scout Master Dale Smith presented
to Commander Leiberman, chairman
of the meeting, five applications for
tenderfoot examination preparatory
to becoming Scouts. Following in
spection the applicants, Parr Ian
caster, Dayton Shields, Leland Chris
tensen, Ted Clark and David Parker,
were given badges by Commander
Leiberman making them third class
Scouts. During the presentation the
commander admonished them to do
a good turn whenever they could and
to serve as an example to other boys.
Following the applications the Boy
Scouts were presented with the colors
of the United States and of their
organization Commander Leiberman
presented first the American flag
and then the flag emblem of the
Boy Scouts, speaking briefly of what
the flag means to an American.
Eugene Wood on behalf of the
Scouts thanked the Legion for the
flags and expressed the hope that
the boys could do something to show
their gratitude.
A number of people were then as
ked to make brief speeches. Grady
Gammage, superintendent of schools,
was the first In his remarks he
said that the people who are invest
ing their time and money in the Boy
Scouts are investing in future citi-
zens. On behalf of the schools and
to some extent the parents, who re-
present the schools, he thanked and
congratulated the Legion for aiding
the schools and fostering the Boy
Scout movement At the conclusion
of his talk he made a plea that the
boys live up to the Scouts ideals.
Rev. T. E. Elgin was the next
speaker. He humorously said that
it would not be necessary for him
to announce his unpreparedness to
speak. He also prefaced his remarks
with some stories that brought ripp-

FIRES DESTROY HOUSE
AND TWO WOOD SHEDS

Yesterday was bad day for fires
in Winslow, two occurring. The only
ones that have been reported in a
number of weeks. The first was
at the Rhotan's house in the Klein
dienst addition. A blaze started at
his home about 7 a. m. from an
overheated stove while Mr., Rhotan
was over to a neighbor's house. The
two-roomed structure was burned to
the ground causing a loss of ap-
proximately $1,000. AS the house is
out of the Waterman district, the
fire department could do practically
nothing to save it. ..
The second blaze occurred about
2 p. m. at the Carduff wood yard,
where two sheds were destroyed.
The loss is thought to be about $3.50.
The cause of this fire is not known.
1t is believed, however, that the
blaze started from lighted-cigarette
stubs left in the sheds by some
tramps.

VII. DRIVER TO BUILD
new BOTIL|NG PLANT

V. HI. Driver, proprietor OF the
Standard Bottling Works, is making
preparations to construct new Sanl-
tary bottling plant at the rear of his
store on Front street to take care
of his increased beverage business
which has outprown the present
quarters.
The building, which will be COM
pleted about the middle of February
so as to be in readiness for the
spring orders, will be "a by 36 feet
and will be absolutely sanitary. 1t
will have a cement foundation and
floor with adobe walls covered with
cement, making a structure that can
be easily cleaned and flushed with
water. The new building together
with the modern and sanitary machi-
merry which Mr.. Driver has recently
purchased, will make one of the most
sanitary bottling plants in the state.
Although Mr.. Driver has been in
the bottIing business only a few
years, his orders have increased un-
til he now has a very large selling
territory which includes all the cities
along the Santa Fe from Lupton to
Seligman as we'll as the Indian re-
servations, Payson, St. Johns and
other towns and posts in northern
Arizona.
The popularity of the Standard
beverages is due to the fact that
only best ingredients are used In
them. Mr.. Driver buys his extracts
from John, Mulhurn Company OF San
Francisco, one of the manufacturers
of the highest grade extracts In the
United States.
In making the beverages only pure
mountain spring water is used. Mr.
Driver has two 5000 gallon filterlng
tanks and the water is filtered
through charcoal and sand making
it absolutely pure.
Workmen started to clear the
ground Monday morning for the
| building of the new plant.

National Economic Council
In Favor of World Court

Ten to one in favor of the World
court.
The United States Senate has been
asked to give its consent on the
terms proposed by President Harding
on February "a, to adhesion by the
United States to the protocol of the
Permanent court of International
justice by ninety-one percent of the
rsembers of the National Council of
the National Economic League who
voted on a referendum mailed to
them on November "a.
Since the National council is COM
posed of men from every state, who
are selected by preferential ballot
solely with the view to their stand
ing or qualification as leaders of
public opinion, the vote is an accu-
rate reflection of public opinion, the
National Economic league believes.
The referendum was worded as
follows:
"Should the United States Senate
at this session of Congress promptly
give its advice and consent to adhe-
sion by the United States to the
protocol of the Permanent court of
International Justice on the terms
proposed by President Harding on
February "a, 1927"
Following is the vote:
Yes 1901 No 155
The returns from each state in
dicate that public opinion on the
subject is practically the same in
all parts of the country. In Michi-
gan, Idaho, North Carolina, Rhode
Island and Oregon the affirmative
vote was unanimous. The largest
percentage of negative votes came
from New Mexico, the vote in that
state being Is eyes" and 9 mo.

dent of city schools, is a member of
the National Council of the National

Glory for Winslow High!


Pitted against teams which had the
overwhelming advantage of height
and weight, Winslow high school boys
and girls basketball squads fought
the mighty and confident Flagstaff
Normal cage artists to a standstill
and humbled them at the Washington
school auditorium Saturday night de-
f@ting them by the decisive score
Of 20 to IS and 81 to respectively.
The victories were great ones for the
local institution, the maroon and
white players winning prestige and
glory for Winslow High.
The local cage teams, despite their
handicap of height and weight, eX-
celled their opponents at every stage
of the game showing better team
work, better defensive playing, more
speed and more accurate passing OF
the ball and shooting of baskets. So
good was the team work of the Win
slow artists that the contest was
played most of the time on the local
side of the court.
Every one of the maroon and white
men played an exceptionally good
game for the first contest of the
season. There were no outstanding
stars in the team, although one or
two of the men played a stellar
game. Perhaps the most obvious de-
ficiency of the local boys squad was
the inability to make free throws on
the part of all the members. If the
players had been able to shoot the
free goals more accurately, Win
slows score would have been boosted
considerably.
Camp and Herring of the Normal
ties were the outstanding players on
the visiting squad These two men
were the only ones who where able
to make field baskets for the lumber
jacks, each making three. Fillerup
led with free throws, garnering three
to his credit.
Flagstaff's girls team was nc
match for the local sextette, who
literally swept the visitors off their
feet, outpointing them at every turn
of the contest. The Mans were not
in the race after the local squad got
underway. If the local lassies con-
tinue to improve as the season pro-
crosses, they should be able to ad-
minister a humiliating drubbing to
any high school sextette in the state.
Esther Williams, Janetta LaPrade,
Bernette Williams and Evelyn Proc
tor were the outstanding players for
Winslow. Anona Wells and Helen
Wells did the scoring for Flagstaff.
In the girls contest, which was
the first game played, Winslow led
4 to at the end of the first quarter,
Evelyn Proctor having made two
field baskets and Anona Wells one
for Flagstaff with a free throw by
Helen Wells. Evelyn Proctor made
a beautiful field basket from about
the center of the court during the

one of the best that the organization
