PROF. HELM OF STATE
TEACHER COLLEGE TAKES
CHARMING OREGON BRIDE

4 Professor George d. Helm, instruc-
tor in English and dramatics at Flag
j staff State Teachers college, gave his
friends most agreeable surprise on
Sunday when he init oduced to them a
I charming and attractive woman and
added blush of his own to those she
wore as he explained that she was
his bride.
1t is to be understood that both were
blushing more from joy and pride
than from confusion OF course lit
/ tie of the latter emotion is pardonable
/ under similar first-experience circum-
stances; and the other emotions men
toned are pardonable, also, consider
i ing the fine personalities of the two
parties to the contract
| The bride, hereinafter and chval-
rously to be mentioned as the party of
the first part, was graduated this
summer from Oregan state university,
| during the last year of her studies
also teaching school at Crow, that
state. She and Mr.. Helm, who are of
the same age, first met when the lat
ter, or party of the second part, was
a student at Oregon Agricultural col
lege, Corvallis. SO that SUNDAYS
marriage had been in prospect for
more than year and definitely
planned for the last several months,
all but the exact time and place be-
ing known to several of the local
friends of said panty of the second
part.
They were twain when they met
Monday morning at Williams, as the
young lady alighted from an east
bound train. Very soon, with the
kind connivance of Rev. j. U. Bennett
of Williams and in the presence of
Mrs. Bennett and Professor Robert r.
Powers of Teachers college, they were
made one. Shortly thereafter, Profess
sor Powers, who is a shark at mathe-
matics, having figured that as they (
now were one and his single-seat /
coupe could carry two, brought them
to Flagstaff and they are now living
at the Brandt home on West Rail I
road avenue.
The Sun, in on the secret while it
still was secret, is in the vanguard
of the many friends of Mr.. Helm in
offering him cordial congratulations h
on the manifestation of so much good Il
taste and good sense in his choice Of Fl
a bride; without in any way being
stingy in like congratulations to the
bride herself

GRADY GAMMAGE GIVEN
HIGH POSITION AT NORMAL

Grady Gammage, for four years
with the WinsIow public schools, two
years as principal of the high school
and two years as superintendent of
the city schools, was elected by the
board of trustees of the Northern
Arizona Teachers college at Flagstaff
to be director of the training school.
The position offered Mr.. Gammage
carries with it material increase in
salary over the situation he holds
here, and is an important step in Mr..
Gammage's progress into the field of
educational executives
For some time it has been felt that
Mr.. Gammage would be offered a po-
sition higher in his work than the one
he occupies here. and at the com
mencement exercises of the 1925 class
a few days ago it was publicly init
mated by r. D. McGregor, president
of the school board, that sometime in
the near future the board would be
compelled to choose successor to Mr..
Gammage. Winslow Mail.

FRANK CHISHOLM LEFT
SUNDAY FOR CALIFORNIA

Francis A. Chisholm left the first
of the week to drive to California,
where it is likely he will locate. He
resigned some time ago as county
agricultural agent During the six
years he had been here his work was
highly satisfactory and he did great
deal to improve farming methods. But
he felt that in justice to himself he
should transfer to some other section
where farming is more diversified and
he would have more scope. He intend
ed resigning a year ago but was per-
suaded to remain another year. His
successor will soon be appointed
though it is not known here who will
have the place.
Frank may change his line of work
altogether, as he has had a good of
fer from a large business concern in
Phoenix, but when he left here he was
undecided whether to accept the lat
ter or farm agency work offered on
the coast. He will soon go home to
Colorado on vacation and then expects
to return here for day or so.
The nearer to Flagstaff Frank To-
Gates the better pleased will be his
many friends here. where he has taken
too active a part in affairs not to be
greatly missed. Member of the Elks,
Knights Of Columbus and American
Legion and secretary of the Rotary
club during the last year, he has been
too mixed up with things going on to
be easily unmixed.

BROWN White IS
NAMED HEAD OF
TRUCK SHIPPERS
Harlingen Selected AS
Headquarters; Organ
ization is Benefit, To
Farmers -McDavitt

Brown White of San Benito was elect.
ed president of the Rio Grande Valley
Shippers association at the meeting
held at the Chamber Of Commerce here
last night.
About 35 growers from various parts
of the Valley were present. and tool
part in the selection of officers anc
directors
Other officers are: L. S. Witte, Sar
Benito. first vice president Charles Sala-
dino, Mercedes, second vice president;
w. T. Hodge, third vice president.
Directors are: Brown White, San Ben
ito; L. S. Witte, San Benito; Davis

ingen; Cleve Tandy, Brownsville; w. F
McDayitt, Brownsville; I. R. Stahl

cedes; VIM: Coe, Jr., Mercedes; H. P

Harlingen was selected as headquart
ers of the organization. and an office
will be opened there, to be occupied by
a full time secretary.
The election Of officers and directors
completes organization of the Valley
Shippers Association, the bylaws hav-
ing been adopted at the previous meet
ing in Harlingen. The directors will
hold their first meeting at Harlingen
Tuesday of next week.
The Valley shippers organization ex-
poets to be beneficial organization to
not only the shippers, but the railroads
and other carriers, and the growers
- in Of in Har1inUor
the organization will work to the bene.
fit of the shippers in the way of aiding
in distribution. The central office car
help shippers in all parts of the Valley
keep in touch with the direction anC
quantity of movement during shipping
season, and thus prevent a congestion
of any one market in the country.
Another one of the chief features OF
the organization, as explained thi:
morning by w. E. ,McDavitt, local ship
per and one of the directors, will bt
the enforcement of standard grades ano
packs. The directors will decide or
questions of grading and packing, anc
will carry out such regulations as viii
benefit the shippers and growers in thl;
respect.
Directors of the shippers organization
will also determine general policies OF
transportation, and will make an effort
to settle every dispute that may arise
between shipper and the railroads OF
other carriers.
Still another advantage OF the or
ganization will be to furnish the farm
ers with accurate and reliable lnforma
tion on the crop conditions, what is be
ing planted elsewhere, what the trenc
NAV be, and other information on mar
ket conditions which will aid the farm
er in knowing what to plant, and IL
getting the most out of his products.

CAPTURESTATE
(By the Associated Press)

DALLAS, Texas, Oct. 23.-Texas re-
publicans, who have not been taken seri-
ously in state politics since reconstruc-
tion times, will capture the state house
at Austin in the 1926 elections, if devel-
opments vindicate the optimism of the
state executive committee and leading
republicans in caucus here.
The capture will be effected, it was
intimated at yesterdays sessions, with
the aid of democrats who are expected
to rebuke past and present conditions :
by forsaking party lines and vote for
"the man." And the G. o. P. adherents
confidently plan to enter a guberna-
torial candidate who will draw votes
from both parties.
No secret was made by the repub-
licans of their intention to capitalize
the present unrest in state politics as an
argument for the two party system.
Speakers yesterday including R. B.
Creager were of the unanimous opinion
that state affairs now are in "dis-
graceful condition Two full state
tickets hereafter would be the salvation
Of the state politically, they agreed. y

PORT DISTRICT
IS SUGGESTED
O'Brien Corrects State.
ment on Donna Meet
ing Wednesday

That the organization of a navigation
district to include Cameron and Hidal-
go counties, and for the purpose of
taking "over the railroad and at the
same time provide funds for terminals
waterway" is the best method of soly-
ing the deep water troubles is the be-
lief Of d. A. O'Brien, president Of the
Rio Grande Railway, and for many years
worker for deep water at Point Isabel.
This opinion, brought out by Mr..
O'Brien at the meeting at Donna We'd
nesday night for the purpose of discus
sion and the deep water situation, is
included in statement given out today
by Mr.. O'Brien, correcting some of the
reports on that meeting.
His statement follows:
To the Editor of The Herald
Referring to special press report from
Donna, which appeared in your issue of
yesterday, regarding proposed purchase
of Rio Grande Railway by the Missouri
Pacific, would. ask that you make the
following corrections:
I was quoted as having said "that the
officials of the Missouri Pacific be
that line an enemy to the port What
/ did say was that / did not favor the
sale of the Rio Grande Railway to the
Missouri Pacific as | did not believe
| that company would develop the port
and thereby create competition with its
own lines and that the people should
let the Missouri Pacific officials know
that they would oppose the sale of the
| Rio Grande Railway to that company.
| also suggested the creation of q
navigation district which would enable
| the people Of the Valley to take over the
railroad and at the same time provide
| funds for terminals and the further
| improvement Of our waterway.
| Last paragraph of the report quoted
me as having said / chad accompanied
Major Schley and other government en-
gineers on recent inspection of the
| inner harbor at Point Isabel and thai
these men found the dredged channel
to be open still at its original DEPTH
What / did say was that | had accom-
panied representatives of the Gull
Coast Steamship company who, in COM
pany with Capatin Reed of Point Isabel
had taken soundings through the inner
channel and across the bar and found
that the inner channel had not filled
in as had been reported and that the
unfinished portion of said inner chan
mel had increased in depth from IL to
Z 1-2 or feet.
