ROTARY CLUB OPPOSED
TO MORMON LAKE PARK

Flagstaff Rotary club on Tuesday
adopted resolution protesting
against the proposal to have Mormon
lake declared state park. The reso-
luton, which had been prepared by
the resolutions committee, was car
ried unanimously. The text was es-
sentially the same as the one adopted
last week by Flagstaff Junior Cham
Der of Commerce, and printed in The
Sun last week.
Joe P. Wilson was chairman for the
day and had peppy, interesting pro-
gram.
Reuben Martin Gassman was intro
duced by his son, Sid Gassman, as the
newest member of Rotary, and Sid
said lot of good things about his
dad, who made his first appearance
on this sphere at Waupaca, Wis, and
who located here last fall and opened
a gift shop and newsstand with the
avowed intention of remaining here
permanently. He will be known as
"Reub" TO his fellow members.

GROWTH OF POSTOFFICE
RECEIPTS PROVES
TOWN GROWING

The increase in Flagstaff postal
receipts in 1924 over 1923 amount
ed to $2245.50, says Postmaster
Dick Connor. This increase is from
the sale of stamps and stamped en-
velopes alone and does not include
money orders or postal savings. If
computed in two-cent stamps alone
it would represent 1924 stamps.
The increase in the number of
parcels insured was about 25 per
cent. The percentage Of increase
in the amount of registered mail
was also practically 25 per cent.
The money order business grew
from $18,392 in 1923 to $21 $50 in
1924, or more than II per cent.
These figures are further verifi-
cation of the growth of Flagstaff
during 1924 as shown in the public
utilities figures compiled by George
T. Harrington and published in
The Sun week before last, showing
an increase of Is per cent in resi-
dence water connections, and 13
per cent in electric light connec-
tions.

LOCAL TAX PAYERS AT
MEETING AGAINST O. c.
ROAD SUBSCRIPTIONS

At general meeting Of Flagstaff
taxpayers with the county board OF
supervisors at the court house Monday
afternoon it was decided that no sub
scription will be taken locally for the
Oak Greek road, but that improvement
of the road is up to the board of su-
pervisors and should be taken care of
out of the road tax money as soon as
it can be done without unfairness to
other roads needing attention.
The meeting was an outcome of the
announcement made at the Rotary
club several weeks ago by Captain J..
B. Wright, county engineer, who said
that citizens of Cottonwood, Clarkdale,
Clemenceau and Jerome would sub
scribe $2500, providing Flagstaff citi-
zens subscribed an equal amount, the
combined sum then to be matched out
of Coconino county funds.
A committee was appointed by the
Rotary club and met with like COM
mittees from the Junior Chamber of
Commerce and the Flagstaff Business
Mems association, the respective
chairmen of the three committees be-
ing GGOIBC l.. IlCILIIlS tOll, dim L.

There were between go and rs
Flagstaff men at the meeting, which
was held in the courtroom and pre-
sided over by Mr.. Harrington. He re-
ferred to the appointment of the COM
mittees, then said that in discussing
the Oak Greek matter the entire road
subject came up and it was felt adj
visable to call general meeting with

ness handled, in the increase in the
number of accounts over year

average balance per depositor.
While it must be set down that
1924 was quiet year to the bust
ness interests in this locality, it
must be recognized that with bank
balances holding up and with plen-
ty of money available for legiti-
mate commercial purposes, the
general condition is one of funda-
mental soundness, offering encour-
agement to the local business in
terests. A year of average rain

We were escorted into the harbor
by 2 group of Hawaiian singers on a
small boat with real native music.
Later that evening newly organized
concert company of about 25 native
Hawaiian singers gave us a wonder
ful entertainment consisting of native
songs and dances. A more digniffed
dance was substituted for the old
hula hula grass skirt performance
which first made these islands famous.

reality miles and miles of sugar cane

An alteration enlarging the new
wholesale grocery building to be
erected in Flagstaff by the Central
Commercial company of Kingman and
the contract for the masonry work was
made on Tuesday, during the visit
here of three officials of the company.
The building, for which excavation

to the revised plans will be ITS feet

concrete-floored basement eight feet
deep under all. Construction above
ground will be stone, probably local

WEBER BOUGHT LARUE
HOME SHERIFF'S SALE

Orrin Webber of Webber Bros. ga
rage last Saturday bid in the so-called
LaRue residence property in the north
east part Of town at sheriff's sale,
paying $4,000. Other bidders were
Judge F. w. Perkins and T. A. StahI.
The property was sold to satisfy
mortgage held by E. M. Brown of
Los Angeles. Other claims against
the property, also held by Mr.. Brown,
will, it is said, be satisfied outside of
the local property. There were four
years taxes due on the residence,
which Mr.. Webber got at bargain
figure. The house was built by Bax-
ter Brandon, sold seven years or so
ago to C. A. Clark, who about four
years ago sold to c. E. LaRue, who
last year moved to California.

surface of longer life and in all prob
ability this will be used. While the
initial cost will be more, maintenance
over the coming years will be reduced.
Mr.. Wheeler conferred with County
Supervisor Taylor regarding the pro-
posed future construction of the
Maine-Grand Canyon forest highway.
1t is the purpose of the bureau of
public roads to survey this route this
year and spend approximately $103,-
600 on the construction of portion of
this road during 1927. Mr.. Wheeler
is endeavoring to secure future CO.
operation on this construction and
thereby extend the length of the inn
provement.
1t is also proposed to make the To-
cation survey of route from Will
liams north to Red Lake and thence
easterly, connecting with the Maine
Grand Canyon route. This will ulti-
mately afford two approaches to the
road leading to Grand Canyon.
The party left Thursday night en-
route to Santa Fe, N. NJ, to meet
with State Highway Engineer French.

COCONINO ROAD MONEY Is
BELOW ZERO WHILE STATE
HOLDS FOREST MONEY DUE

While Coconino ceunty's road fund
is overdrawn $4,000 and all road
warrants hereafter issued until this
deficit is made up will have to be
registered and pay interest of per
cent, there is said to be $4,000 forest
road money due this county from the
state, which, according to forest serv-
ice officials, the state has had since
last September.
Numerous letters, phone calls and
kilograms from Mrs. Ana Frohmiller,
treasurer of this county, demanding
that the money be sent here by the
state auditor, have been unavailing.
The present state auditor, Wayne
Hubbs, says, it is reported, that the
state never has received the money
from the forest service.
In the meantime Mrs. FrohmilleI
has had to notify the local banks not
to honor any more road warrants un-
til the county treasury is in position
to take them up.
The above condition is partly an
outcome of the reduction of the coun-
ty tax last year from $3.40 to $268.
That it will not be overcome very
soon, unless the forest money is turn
ed over to the county, is evident, as
nearly all of the first installment Of
1924 taxes has been paid.
