JUNIOR. CHAMBER ISSUES
new FLAGSTAFF BOOKLET
THAT'S SURE HUMDINCER

Hats off to the progressive Flag
staff Junior Chamber of Commerce,
that live young organization born
only a few weeks ago but which al
ready is making itself felt in civic i'm
provement and advertising.
The newest accomplishment of the
organization is the publication of a
16-page booklet, by 8 inches in size
and filled to the brim with interest
ing information about Flagstaff and
this county, the industries, advan-
tages, climate, scenery, etc., profuse-
ly illustrated with more than 40 pic
lures taken from photos especially
made for it by Carl Mayhem of this
city. 1t also contains a map, show
ing roads and scenic points for long
distances both sides of the National
Old Trails highway between Needles
and Albuquerque, with smaller sec
tional map Of the Old Trails from Los
Angeles to Albuquerque.
"Flagstaff, Center of Natures
Wonderland" is the title of the
pamphlet. Comment is made on
Flagstaff and its inducement to home
owners, including its schools, roads,
water, climate and industries, and
emphasizing the many things of spec
ial interest to tourists. There are
illustrations from pictures taken on
the range, in the forest, reservations,
hunting and fishing scenes, among the
ancient ruins, and so many other sub
iects that the best way to find out
about it all is to get the pamphlet
and read it for yourself. You will
want some of them to send to
friends back home.

PARENTS WILL ORGANIZE
THREE GROUPS AND GIVE
PARTIES FOR YOUNGSTERS

A movement that promises much
good for our young people is being
planned and will get a real state next
tuesday afternoon at meeting to
be held at 3 o'clock at the Woman's S
club house, when more or less in
formal three-group parents associa-
tion will be formed.
The three groups will he composed
OF the parents of high school chill
dren, of intermediate grades children
and of primary grades children.
The inception of the plan was part
ly in the very successful parties that
have been twice given in the last few
weeks to the high school children.
The plan is now that each group
of parents is to give a monthly party
to the children of it's group. For
this, the Woman's club has donated
the use of the club house. Just what
form each party will take is left, Of
course, to the group of parents spon-
soring it. But programs for each
will be arranged, it is hoped, and it
is felt that the result will be closer
understanding and working between
parents and teachers and parents get
ting into closer touch with the work
their children are doing in school.
And there undoubtedly will evolve in
fluences of a wholesome nature that
will mean better supervision of the
children's playtime, with construction
of programs for directed play and all
that means in keeping the small folks
off the street and away from un-
wholesome influences.
The Woman's club does not feel it
can undertake the financing of the
"eats" and programs to be put on at
the monthly meetings of the three
groups, but the members will CO.
operate individually. The cooperation
of the club as whole in giving the
use of the club house is of no small
consequence and will be appreciated.

FLAGSTAFF TO HELP KEEP
BUREAU AT Los LUNAS TO
ROUTE AUTOS THIS WAY

Flagstaff Junior Chamber of Com
merce Wednesday night offered full
cooperation with the new Grand Can
yon Route and National Old Trails
association, comprising the garage
hotel and other business men along
that section of the National Old
Trails route between Los Angeles and
Albuquerque, and committee was
appointed to raise Flagstaff's quota
of the 5000 needed to defray ex-
penses for the first year..
The association found its inception
in the articles published in The Sun
several months ago denouncing the
practices prevalent in Los Lunas and
other New Mexico towns and in Los
Angeles of giving tourists misleading
information about the National Old
Trails highway through paid agents
and diverting them to longer and less
easily travelled southern routes.
At Wednesday nights meeting the
objects of the new organization were
concisely told by Alfred Skeels of
Williams, who was present at the Gal
lup meeting a few weeks ago during
the formation of the organization and
had investigated fully its purposes
and prospects of success.
Mr.. Skeels was enthusiastic and i'm
parted his enthusiasm to his hearers,
most of whom know him personally
and. know his good sense and SINGER
ity.
He told how paid agents misled
tourists, to their detriment and the
loss of business all along the Old
Trails. Now better cooperation is be-
ing obtained from the Albuquerque
Chamber of Commerce and some of
the other organizations.
The new association is building an
information bureau at Los Lunas, will
keep a paid man there to tell the
actual truth about the roads, and will
distribute descriptive maps through
the bureau and through various
agencies all along the route and
points in the east.
Flagstaff, Needles and Kingman up
to now are the only towns that have
not contributed to the organization.
Williams raised more than $500 IN
very short time after Mr.. Skeels re-
turned from Gallup. Flagstaff will
soon be in line and it is reported that
both Needles and Kingman will be
also.
F. j. Ambrose of Gallup, president
of the association, and Mr.. Constant,
another Gallup business man, were at
the meeting and gave interesting IN
formation.
Undoubtedly every cent spent with
the association in carrying out this
good work will return many fold to
the donors. 1t is encouraging to note
the get-together spirit being manf
tested by the towns along the Old
Trails and their awakening to fight
together for the spread of the truth
against the malicious propaganda be-
ing put out by Phoenix and other
southern cities against the Old Trails.
This is the shortest route, the safest
route, the best-built route and the
only one that really can be kept open
all the year around.

The ordinance covers every phase
of vehicular traffic and will be appre-
ciated in its regulation of traffic to

TIRE AND MOUTH SYMPTOMS

1t is difficult to tell just how the
foot and mouth disease will affect
an automobile or its owner. Jimmy
Lewis started home from Los An
geles in brand new McFarlane auto
which his mother had presented to
him on his visit to the coast, just in
time to find the California-Arizona
boundary line was no imaginery thing.
He was afflicted with volubility of
the face when he learned he would
have to leave the car and hoof it If
he wanted to come home. Tuesday
he received a wire saying the en-
barge was busted for an hour only
and his car was run across to Topoc.
If you don't believe he went right
over after it pronto, you have no
idea how much he thinks of that
brand new bus his mother gave him.

GREATER PRODUCTION
ON FARMS is NEEDED

ATLANTA, April 1.-Greater
agricultural production must be
forthcoming this year, according to
business men and agriculturists, IL
a return to normalcy.
Attention is called to the fact
that there are thousands of acres
of farm land lying idle in Georgia
and neighboring safes, which should
be brought to state of cultivation.
Recognizing this situation railroads
and real estate men are co-operat.
ing in an effort to attract home
seekers.
In addition to the movement to
bring homeseekers to the Southeast,
movements are under way to en-
courage and cooperate with the
farmers at home in an effort to
bring about greater production for
the year.
The statement is made by editors
who are urging greater production
that the only hope for substantial
gain in business lines is to increase
the yield from agricultural industry
or which all lines of commerce are
dependent.
