GRAND CANYON Is BEING
DRESSED UP FOR COMP ANY

With the many improvements now
under way and those contemplated for
the near future, Grand Canyon ma
tional park is rapidly Becoming even
more of paradise for the visitor.
The new trail into the canyon is
considerably more than half done;
that is, more than half of the work
has been DONE The trail will be fin
ished in about two months. Wherever
necessary the solid rock has been cut
through to avoid sharp turns and give
sufficient width The precipice edge
at certain points will be shut off by
woven wire guards.
The new trail will not be advertised
for general use this summer, however,
as first there is about three miles of
approach road to be built to make the
head of the trail easily accessible to
automobiles. This new road, money
for which is available, will not be
completed before late in the summer.
Much work is also being done in
taking the Bright Angel creek trail on
the north side of the Colorado river
out of the creek. Before this work
began there were more than so creek
CTOSSlISS W UC IOIQCu OCINCClI tic
Colorado and the upper end. When
the improvements are done the trail
will cross the creek only four times
and then on bridges.
The county board of supervisors has
been requested by r. H. Clarkson,
transportation manager for the Fred
Harvey system, to make extensive re-
pairs on the county's Bright Angel
trail. Mr.. Clarkson feels that in it's
present condition Bright Angel trail
is unsafe The improvements asked
for will cost about $4,000, it is esti
mated.
With Bright Angel repaired and the
new trail in operation, the round trip
down over one trail and up over the
other will prove great drawing card
for visitors at the canyon.
1t is unlikely that much actual con-
struction of the big new Harvey hotel
at Grand Canyon will be done this
summer But the new power house
will be built this summer.
Trying to secure a local supply of
water for use at the canyon, the Santa
Fe railroad company is drilling in Co
conino Wash, near the railroad sew
eral miles south Of the canyon, in the
hope Of developing a well. In case
one is developed, other wells likely
will be drilled.

ELKS DANCE TOMORROW

Corthay's California 8-piece naval
orchestra will furnish the music at the
Elks' big dance at Elks' hall tomorrow
night. These boys, if Flagstaff people
turn out tomorrow night, will include

Elks' dance every Saturday night.
Prescott, Jerome and several other
northern Arizona towns are already in
the circuit. Smiling Bill" Corthay,
leader, has had the boys all over the
United States in the last few years

ceived are evidence that they are real
jazz artists.

ON SHORE MORMON LAKE

M. D. Tombler, formerly of Casa
Grande, was in town Tuesday getting
more supplies and making further ar
rangements connected with the build
ing of so summer cottages on the
southwest shore of Mormon lake, near
Twin Springs. The work of building
will soon be in full swing and when
the cottages are finished they will be
a big convenience to the hundreds who
are expected to spend all or part of
the summer at this resort, the most
popular and most beautiful in Arizona
if not in the entire southwest.

AS | gazed on your colorful splendor
Methought of the long, long ago,
Of the gentle hand of the Master,
Who tenderly painted you SO.
World-famed chasm of beauty,
Variance of colors are thine,
None can compare with your grandeur
Charming, enchanted, sublime.
Centuries old, in thy making,
Magic work of the Artist Divine,
Your beauty lives on forever
Undisturbed by the passing of time.
Arizona, homeland of wonders,
Of scenes that are brightest and
true,
Make you always and always be
thankful
For the blessings that God gave to
YOU.

there is no other trip so interesting as
the trip over Flagstaff and the Grand

Winslow, Arizona.
Dear Mr.. Hausler:

WlnSlOW, ATIZOTd.
Dear Mr.. Hausler:
| find your letter of the 26th inst.
and the enclosed circulars most in
teresting. All of us at Flagstaff
would also be pleased if we could find
a suitable landing field here and have
this town become headquarters for
sightseeing trips to Grand Canyon, the
Painted Desert and the many other
wonderful places of world interest of
which this town is the center. We
will be glad when the Photographic
section of the army, with which you
are making arrangements to photo
graph Flagstaff and the surrounding
country, will be here and we will rem
der all possible assistance to help this
work. | will hand your circulars to
the local press, feeling sure they will
be glad to have this important infor-
nation for their readers. | hope that
| may be here when you and the pho
tographic section of the army come,
but if not Mr. Koch and other citizens
am sure will render any possible
help. The snow is still heavy, on the
flats especially and | presume it may
be month or six weeks longer before
the ground is in good condition for
examination. | am sorry as | would
like to be here to go over these mat
ters when conditions are right, but |
am expecting to go to Europe soon
and was only yesterday looking up
time schedules of the air route from
London to Paris and other points.
However, hope to be of help in these
matters after my return next sum-
mer.
Yours very truly,
