FORMER WINSLOW
GIRL is IN LINE
FOR HERO MEDAL

Friends of Miss Dorothy Dughman,
formerly of this city, who about the
middle of August, saved the life of a
young man at the imminent risk of
her own at Clear Creek, have taken
up with the Carnegie Hero Fund COM
mission at Pittsburgh, the matter of
obtaining an award in her behalf.
c. E. Machen, chief dispatcher at
the Santa Fe, has been taking the
initiative on behalf of Miss Doughman,
and early this week received a COM
municatiOn from the commission ask
ing for complete information as to
the rescue, testimony of witnesses and
newspaper accounts. These are being
forwarded to Pittsburgh, and it is
hoped and expected that Miss Dough
man will be awarded the coveted
honor, which is not wholly glory, but
consists of a specially engraved medal
citing the circumstances and the sum
of about ten, thousand dollars in good
old substantial cash.
The scope of the fund applies to
the following: To acts in which con-
elusive evidence may be obtained
showing that the person performing
the act voluntarily risked his own
life in saving, or attempting to save,
the life of a fellow being, or volun-
tarily sacrificed himself in a heroic
manner for the benefit of others Such
acts must have been performed by
persons the nature of whose duties
in following their regular vocation
does not necessarily require them to
perform such acts.
Miss Doughman left the employ OF
the Santa Fe about two months ago
and is now a student at the Chicago
Institute of Art Her home, before
coming to Winslow, was in Denver.

LOCAL STANDARD
PLANT WINS CUP
FOR GAS SALES

The Winslow sub-station of the
Standard Oil company has been
awarded the huge loving cup issued
by the parent company to the station
showing the greatest percentage of in
crease in the sale of gasoline each
month. The Winslow station took the
lead of the 38 sub-stations in Arizona
for the month of November.
The loving cup,s showing the win
ming stations engraved on it's surface,
is now on display in the window of
The Winslow Mail. Five other towns
are shown to have won the cup be-
fore Winslow, Ajo, Glendale, Wicken-
burg and Prescott:
The award came as a surprise to
the men in the Winslow office, who,
while putting forth their best efforts
always, did not know that they were
getting into top position. The station,
since the death of P. D. Grizzard, is
in charge of o. H. Dunlap, assisted
by D. A. Neal and j. c. Gullihorn.
When it was learned that Winslow
had copped the cup, the officers of
the Commercial club Immediately
rendered the Standard Oil office men
the following letter of congratula-
tions:
eve have just learned that the
Winslow station of the Standard Oil
company won the right to hold your
company's Loving Cup for a period
of thirty days, due to your having the
largest percent of increase over last
years business for the month of No
vember, of any of the thirty-eight sta
tions in this state.
"On behalf of the Winslow Com
mercial club, we want to congratu-
late you and your force We hope
that this rate of increase will con-
tinue indefinitely for if the sale of
gasoline and the other commodities
you handle is any barometer of the
general conditions prevailing in the
community, then Winslow is truly ad-
vancing and this is what we are all
working for"

Rotary Club Puts On
An Enjoyable Banquet

One of the most enjoyable social
affairs ever undertaken in WinslOw
was that of last Friday evening, when
the Rotary club held a banquet and
program in honor of two candidates,
VIM. Nagle and DR.. P. D. Sprankle.
The banquet was served in the best
Harvey House style, and the service
to the more than one hundred diners
present could not have been excelled.
Songs, speeches, gibes and digs in
the good-natured Rotary manner en-
livened the feast. Sam Proctor, presi-
dent of the club, had charge of the
program, which included numerous
finings, until the gavel was turned
over to Chairman R. L. Champion,
who had charge of the more serious
part of the program.
The candidates, or baby members,
were seated at table by themselves,
as it was feared that they were too
young to fully understand correct
table manners. Clyde Matthie, cos
tuned as combination wet nurse and
waitress, attended their wants and
prepared their bottles.
