GOOD ROAD SOUTH

With little more road work, travel
between Flagstaff and Jerome and the
towns surrounding the latter will be
much greater. The Schnebley hill
road is in fine shape now all but
about three miles of the level portion
this side of the hill. A carload of
young people left Clemenceau at 5
o'clock Saturday afternoon for the
dance here, arriving at o'clock.
Both the Schnebley hill and the Oak
creek roads are in better shape than
ever before and covering both roads
in a loop is now an easy Sunday ride.

PIGEON ENTHUSIASTS

Shooting was pretty promiscuous at
city recreation park Sunday, the cas-
ualties all being among the ebay pig
cons, most of which couldn't seem to
keep out of range.
Prizes were hams, candy, cigars
and bacon. Several of the conteet-
ants were fortunate and will eat this
week. Prize winners were: Truman
of Phoenix, Ed Raudebaugh, ]. e.

NOTED FILM DIRECTORS

"VANISHING AMERICAN"

foretold in The Sun last summer. 1t
is planned by the author and the
Famous Players-Laskey corporation
to make it the most stupendous pro
duction ever filmed. 1t is estimated
that it will cost even more than "The
Covered Wagon"
Probably actual filming will begin
Within the next two months, soon as
it is a little cooler. Flagstaff will be
the outfitbing point. Zane Grey will
himself likely be here at that time,
especially as it will fit in with his
usual fall program, which includes a
visit to Tonto basin, south of here, for
a few weeks bear shooting.

Treasury May Bring
Back Silver Dollar

The Treasury embarked Saturday
on campaign to restore the silver
dollar-the "cart-wheel" which was so
widely used 20 years ago, to general
circulation.
The initial step was taken when
one of the coins was placed in the pay
envelope of each of 5000 Treasury
employees. Similar action will be
suggested to other government bu-
reaus.
1t has been estimated the upkeep
of paper money costs the government
around three per cent of its total
face value, while maintenance of sill.
YER dollars cost practically nothing.

Engaged Cupe
Owes Duty o
BY BETTY yINfyEN|r

One of the first things the we'll
Bred engaged couple should try II fe-
pember is not to f1aunt their Affections
IN public. 1t Is always more or less
embarrassing for third person or h
sroup Of people to witness a love SCI a
which IL not shown on the legitimi I
stage or screen. 54e

only distressing to others: hut dsciaeIlls
a breach Of etiquetts. 81 Unconsroil4d
emotions are not even excusable Among
the newest of the newly engaged. &
Every one naturally supposes Mat
engaged couples kiss and enjoy what
oldfashioned people termed "spoonineY
and new-fansled folk. call ''petting.'i
This Is one Of the privileges Of the en-.
gagged couple, but to deliberately demon
strate this affection in public Is simply
not done among people who know.
On the other hand this does not mean
that an engaged man and girl must act
afraid Of each other or be prudish. The
frank. open approval of each other is
always charming. Tenderness and
confederation for each other are not
only required az matter Of etiquette
but the outsider Is pleased at this at
titude rather than embarrassed or
bored.
Real affection in public then is not
q matter Of kissing and petting but
rather of being polite and considerate
Of the others feelings.
No one likes to see a finance pull,
or literally haul her finance about by
the coat sleeve. She should never or
der him to perform some task for her.
Such demands as BILLY; pick up nv
handerkchief!' BILLY, get me drink
Of water r are very rude and domi-
neering. Because n girlsis engaged to
man 10 all the more reason she should
be respectful and considerate of his
feelings when they are in public to-
gether.
A request should always be Just as
politely and courteously framed as If
the finances were speaking to a man
who Is an utter stranger.
The finance must he lust as careful
in the way he addresses his finance as
he would have been before they be-
came engaged. Command. demands and
familiar phrases are very repelling as
well as breaches of etiquette in the
social world.
The young man and woman who bear
these things in mind during their court
ship days will find that many lovers
quarrels and chickering's can be avoided.
They will also find that their married
life viii be much smoother and happier
II they retain the respect and courteous
ness OF courtship days. The hallmark
OF so-called vulgar people is display
OF their uncontrolled emotions and this
not only means displaying their affec-
tons in public but also their quarrels
and Misunderstanding.
tenderness, kindness, courteousness
and frank approval of 7one another
should be the only emotions displayed
when in public together.

So as he went about his own affairs
day after day Sammy kept his eyes
open for signs of a new house. but with
out success. Often he saw Reddy Fox
and Mrs. Reddy, sometimes on the
Green Forest, and always together
Green Forest, an dalways together
But after the arrival of sweet Mistress
Spring there came time when he sell
dom saw either of them. This was the
time when they were so busy digging
their new house up in the Old Pasture
for that new house. He knew that
Old Man Coyote lived there, and he
knew that Reddy Fox had a great
deal of respect for Old Man Coyotes
strength and cumming, and it didn't
once occur to Sammy that Reddy would
for a minute think of making his home
anywhere near that of Old Man
Coyote.
After a time Sammy noticed that al
most always when he met him Reddy
Fox was alone. The first time Sammy
didn't think anything about it, but after
he had met Reddy alone several times
and had noticed that Reddy was too
intent on hunting to stop and gossip
as he used to do. Sammy's sharp wits
began to work. He began to grow sus-
picious. Yes, sir; Sammy began to
grow suspicious. He went off where
he could be quite by himself and there
he sat down to think.
"Reddy and Mrs. Reddy have dug
that new house." thought he. There
is no doubt about it. They have dug
that new house and haven't the least
idea where. Now, Reddy hunts alone
most of the time, and he does a great
deal more hunting than i ever knew
him to do before at this time of the
year. There must be a reason for it
