Here are a few of the slogans in
which there is a lot of inspiration
and good advice:
Keep your yard clean and others
will do it also.
Plant seeds, kill weeds.
Little seeds we'll sow and into
beautiful flowers they'll grow.
Do you want trees, or trash?
Let the cleaning up of Flagstaff be
a pleasure instead of burden.
To make Flagstaff clean and inn
prove its beauty surely is our duty.
Let's make our town match the
scenery.
Flagstaff, the arbor entrance to the
canyon.
Flagstaff, fair and fastidious.
Cleanliness plus beauty equals con-
tentment and health.
Clean, plant, beautify.
Make Flagstaff worthy of its scenic
beauty
Flagstaff, the highest and prettiest.
Our beauty's more than skin deep.
Out with tin cans, in with flower
cans.
River de Flag needs q clean face.
We've got Hollywood beat mile.
Let's make the PEAKS proud.
We can't have beautiful town by
talking. Come on, let's get busy.
There were several hundred slo-
gans submitted. A great many we're
written by Normal school pupils and
teachers. Is this interest manifested
there an indirect result of the pro-
gram of Identification that has been
going on there for some time? In
the Normal training school great
deal of emphasis has been laid on
keeping the surroundings free of
trash and attractive The children
have become imbued with the idea.
Probably that is why so many of the
training school children got in enthu-
siastically on the sligan contest. Some
of them printed their slogans in col
ors and illustrated them.
There is more coming of this pro-
gram of beautifying Flagstaff, under
the auspices of the Woman's club.
Keep watch for it and get and keep in
line with it. It's good stuff. You
can't do anything more worth while
than to spend few spare hours inn
proving the appearance of your home
and its surroundings.

Tom Mccullough gave a sensible,
straight-from-the-shoulder talk on va
cations, enumerating the many SUI
perior advantages Flagstaff affords
to vacationists and the ease with
which they may be made to profit us
if we increase recreational and hous-
ing facilities.
Chairman Billy got into the enter

$4,000 bond money which is to be
put up to match federal aid on the
projects. Mr. Rickel wired M. l. Pow

commission, now in Los Angeles. The

charge. Mr.. Powers wired back on

cREosoTE BATH LENoTHENs
LIFE OF TEL EPHoNE POLES

About one-third of all poles placed
by the Bell Telephone Companies are
chestnut. Up to the present time,
very few Of these poles were treated
with wood preservative before they
were set. The Bell System now has
plans well under way for treating
these poles, before they are placed in
the ground
The treatment consists of standing
poles in an open tank OF hot creosote
oil for several hours, then quickly
changing the bath to cold creosote SO
that condensing the steam In the wood
cells will create vacuum causing the
wood to absorb the oil. A pole is
treated up to about one foot above
the ground line. which covers the en-
tire section where rapid decay ordi-
narily occurs. This adds from ten to
fifteen years to the life Of pole
which would ordinarily last from ten
to twenty years, the Chesapeake and

WHY TELEPHONE

Like Many Other Details, Are Result
OF Long Experimentation.
Those classic problems, How old is

more puEzling to the uninitiatsd than
the question why does the hook that
supports the telephone receiver end
In two rings7" Is 1t in order that
the instrument may be closed with

used-although awkwardly-by hold
ing 1t upside down. Or IL It, perhaps
in Difference to the feminine convic-
ton that every hook should have an
eysf
As matter of fact, the rings at
the end Of the telephone hook have
been evolved by gradual process Of
elimination. Like many other details
OF telephone apparatus and service,
they represent the results Of careful
thought and experiments directed to
ward giving the public the best ana
most economical telephone facilities
that can be devised
The early types of desk telephones
had hooks ending in pair Of upturned
horns. This arrangement proved unsat
isfactory, however. because careless
subscribers were likely, when replac.
ing the receiver, TO set it down on
the points Of these horns in such a
way as to injure the diaphragm.
To obviate this difficulty, the hooks
were made for a while with the points
turning downward; but that, too,
proved undesirable. as the prongs
were apt to catch and tear women's
sleeves, curtains. or any other thin
fabric that came near the telephone.
So telephone engineers hit upon the
scheme Of making the hook terminate
IN two disks. which couldn't puncture
the diaphragm of the receiver nor
catch on peoples sleeves These
disks were in ure for a time. but
finally it was decided to make them
with hole In the center like dough
nut, This arrangement not only saves
metal, but also gives the telephone a
heater appearance, That's why the
hook that supports your telephone re
eeiver ends In two rings.

Four Injured In
Car Accident
Four Richey Boys Run Ford Car
Into Bridge Washout

One of the worst car accidents re-
ported for some time took place near
Redwater Store last Saturday night
Four young men by name of Nile
Walker, Elmer Smelzer, Adolph Jan
ke and Chas. Hansen, all of Richey
were going to Redwater to a dance,
when they run into bridge washout
below Redwater about mile and a
half The washout is about IA feet
across and ten feet deep, and they
landed in the bottom, knocking all
tuem unconscious and injurmg all
more or less, according to reports.
One lad did not come to until Sun
day evening, after taken home 1t
is said all will recover. JaHke had
one ear badly cut and another his
forehead
The accident occurred about ten
O'Clock, and were found about mid
night by Mr.. Babcock, elevator man
at Richey who happened along.
The bridge had washed out during
one of the recent heavy rains, but a
temporary bridge had been construct
ed nearby, but was not noticed by
the lads, nor any signs of warning
until it was too late to avoid an acci-
dent
