WE'D BY COWBOY PARSON
AND INDIAN CHIEF UNDER
THE SILVER DESERT MOON

Unique and romantic was the we'd
ding of Miss Wilma Hays, Los Angeles
society girl, and Ashbell Wesley Case
III of Colorado Springs, which was
solemnized last Thursday night at s
o'clock in the center of the steel span
of Cameron bridge over the Little
Colorado river in the heart of the
Painted Desert, on the exact spot
where early in the summer they be-
came engaged.
The moon, which until the wedding
party reached the bridge had been OBJ
scured, appeared with desert bril-
iiancy and shone throughout the cere-
mony. Miss Lillian Bennett of Los
Angeles, cousin of the bride, was
bridesmaid. James B. Crandall of
Kansas City was best man. Rev.
Hugh d. Smith, a very good friend
of the young couple and known far
and wide as the cowboy parson,"
read the lines for the simple ring
ceremony, by the light of pitch
torch held by Perry, the educated son
Of a Navajo chief, to the faint music
of the gentle breeze through the steel
bridge cables.
The brides costume was of white
satin heavily embroidered with rhine
stone and crystal beads. Her veil was
caught up with bands of orange bios
SONS. She carried a shower bouquet
of brides roses and lilies of the val
ley. The bridesmaid wore tea-rose
yellow taffeta and a picture hat to
match. The brides mothers gown
was fawn crepe embroidered in richly
colored chiffon velvet applique. The
wedding party stood against back
ground of gaily blanketed Indians.
Immediately after the service the

FOUR ENTIRE STATES
PUT IN THIS COUNTY
BUT DON'T FILL 1T

An interesting map was drawn
this week by Clyde Etter, assistant
to County Assessor Beeson, and
will be displayed at the state fair
by Alfred Skeels, chairman of the
county supervisors, and Joe b.
Rickel, clerk of the board.
1t is an outline map of this coun-
ty, Coconino, the largest in the
United States. 1t is drawn to
scale and within it's boundaries are
drawn, on the same scale, outline
maps of the states of Massachus-
etts, Connecticut, Delaware and
Rhode Island. Even these four
states combined are not quite as
large as this county, and there was
1890 square miles left over, in
which, if desired, could be placed
one of the other counties in this
state-Santa Cruz.

GAISER SAYS, "OFFICERS,
COME ON, LET'S GO"

Lieut.. H. H. Gaisser of the Flag
staff Lumber Co. office staff wishes
to form, or have formed, a local chap
ter of the reserve officers association.
There are a good many here and in
other parts of this county eligible to
membership and Mr.. Gaisser feels
that all necessary to get good-sized
chapter we'll started is for some of the
fellows to get together and go to it.
He asks any who are interested to call
him up at his office or home and will
be glad to have them drop in some
evening at the latter place and talk
it over.

THIEVES AT RIORDAN

Many of us who acknowledge a
taste for the better things Of life are
not so we'll equipped as to conscience
and tools as thieves who leisurely and
efficiently outfitted and supplied
themselves from the commissary and
barn of Vernon L. Willis at Riordan
last week. Five fryers in their prime,
a tent, tires, every drop Of oil and gas
from his car were part of the Willis
contributions. The sawmill commits
sary was entered by the prying off of
the Yale lock, after which the ma
rauders selected a typewriter, scales,
and several other things of value that
they thought might come in handy be-
fore they made their next haul.

MISS COSTIGAN FIRST
WOMAN LICENSED FOR
RADIO BROADCASTING

Miss Mary Costigan, managing
proprietor of the Orpheum theatre
Of Flagstaff, is being importuned
by movie and radio publications all
over the country to send them her
photograph.
When Miss Costigan recently
placed an order for a radio broad
casting outfit for her theatre, she
had no idea she was by that act
leaping into the national spotlight.
But such seems to have been the
case, for she has been informed by
the publications referred to that
she is the first woman in all these
United States to receive a radio
broadcasting license. She expects
the new machine within a couple of
weeks.

SANTA FE DIVISION ENGINEER
INSPECTING NEW WORK HERE

Roy C. Cline, division engineer of
the Santa Fe at Winslow, was in
Flagstaff Tuesday making inspection
of the new depot and other yard work
being done here Mr.. Cline says the
Santa Fe favors an underground
crossing at Sitgreaves street and is
willing to pay its share for the con-
struction when the city is ready to
make the improvement. He says at a
rough estimate the cost would be in
the neighborhood of $4,000 as the
cut would have to be made through
solid rock.

STORK VISITS MR.. AND
MRS. RALPH DAVIS

Ralph Davis passed cigars around
Monday morning. He was smiling.
Not the cigars so much, but what
made Ralph smile, melted answering
grins on the faces of those who Dip
ped into the cigar box, the reason for
such generosity being the arrival of a
buxom little girl the previous morn
ing. This is the first child in this
family and if their ideas of her are
correctly gagged, she is the first lady
in the land as far as her papa and
mamma are concerned. Her name is
Emily.

WILL RUN WATER in BIG
RESERVOIR THIS WEEK

Our reserve supply of water in the
small reservoir gained about half
million gallons last week. City Water
Superintendent John Marshall has a
crew cleaning the big reservoir and
will be through the last of this week,
when the flow from the springs will
be turned into it. The small reservoir
leaks badly and as soon as the larger
one is ready all Of the water coming
down the mountain will be saved.
This gain of supply over use is en-
couraging, especially as four-inch
stream of water IS now going to waste
at the springs owing to the. inability
of the little old pipeline to handle it.
When the big new line is completed,
all the water will come into the reser-
voir and at a much livelier rate, it is
said, than ever before in late fall SO,
while there will be no water to waste
during the winter before the heavy
summer flow begins, we are assured
plenty of good water for household
use.
All of the pipe has been hauled and
all will be in place within a couple
days after the .ditching is done. This
should be. completed next week.
Harry Tellyer has been losing
money pretty fast these days. He
came here with sufficient force to
make the concrete pipe and lay it in
90 days. Owing to the engineering
difficulties in digging the ditch and
building the new pipeline road being
much greater than Cook & O'Brien,
the contractors, had anticipated, this
90 days has stretched into seven
months. Harry has had to keep a
force here and to carry the pipe up
and lay it despite climbing Of wage
and overhead expense.

ELKO, NEVADA, EDITOR
LOOKING US ALL OVER

Editor E. NJ. Steninger of the Elko,
New, Free Press, was in Flagstaff on
Monday, making an auto tour of this
section of Arizona. He comes of a
newspaper family and is raising an
other of his own, consequently can
leave his shop in safe hands when he
wishes to take his auto out and shake
it through new scenery. We hope he
goes home with as good an opinion of
Arizona as we have of him.

AS far as shape IS concerned there
will be little difference in the styles
of the Hats that men will wear this
Spring and those worn last Fall. But
the most radical change will be in the
bands that go around the hats.
Some manufacturers have intro
duced the fancy band, braids similar
to those worn around the straw hats.
The colors, however, will not be pro-
nounced but there will be a fine stripe
or two running through the bands
just enough color to make the mans
hat noticeable part of his ensemble.
AS stated shapes in many instances
are like those of last fall, but there is
a considerable group which show a
decided swing and curl to the brim.
Fedora Shape Always Good
Fedora and Alpine shapes, In good
taste for many years, Will prevail
once more. But there is growing
demand for the diamond and dented
in shapes by the younger fellows. The
tipped-down fronts, too, will be worn
more than ever. AS will be noted

Pearls, pearls, parasitic moro We
wear them the smarter they grow.
Perhaps because their soft irredescent
1uster is so becoming-perhaps be-
cause their demure simplicity ex.
presses the feeling Of the mode Of to-
day better than any other Jewel. But
no longer IL it necessary to be able to
afford q kings ransom for one slender
strand. For. 50 beautiful are many
imitation pearls that they are worn by
the smartest women.
The three strand necklace is un-
usually snart-especially for after
noon or evening wear. But for those
to whom it Is becoming, the choker
ty with an evening dress which is cut
rather low in the back is a choker
necklace with a single strand of pearls
hanging down the back like a China
mans queue.
Many q smart woman still winds q
pearl necklace about her arm for q
bracelet while others wear bracelets
Of fine strands Of tiny pearls fastened
with a single stone.
And Of all rings the large pearl is
quite the best. Many a well dressed
woman wears two Of them on her lit
tie dnger-one Of q faint pink-like
eone-the other soft smoke grey.
Gold and silver
And next in importance to the vogue
Of pearls is gold and silver. In fact
gold and silver is even more popular
for tailored wear. There are choker
necklaces Of filigree gold or silver.
with these are worn the new gold and
silver spiral bracelets.
Il Is small wonder that evening
frocks are very simple for they are al
most covered by the huge feather
fans which are quite the most recent
aids to. chic. They are larger than
ever before and most favored when

Clever Work by
Warden Lands Deer
Law ViOlatOrs

Report has been received from
Charles 2. Gray. Deputy Inland Fish
and Game Warden at Fryeburg, of
the prosecution on March 10th of one
Perley Douglass of Brownfeld. be-
foe Trial Justice, Charles O. Stick
ney. at Browntield. Douglass was
charged with having deer meat in
possession in close season. He was
adjudSed guilty and sentenced to paw
u fine of s25 and costs taxed at
$24.69.
The same day before the same
court Erving Douglass of Brownfield
was charged with killing n deer in
closed time. This defendant was
likewise adjudged guilty and SEN
fenced to pay fine of $50 and costs
taxed at $11.64.
1t appears, from the warden's de-
tailed report, that these prosecutions
were the outcome of a large amount
or clever detective work on the part
of the warden
Having secured evidence which
justified him in asking for search
warrant, he obtained q warrant to
search the house of Perley Douglass
Tor deer meat. He found deer meat
IN a barrel-salted. Mr.. Douglass was
summoned to court on Tuesday
March 10th, at 9 A. NJ. When the
time arrived he failed to appear. The
warden secured another warrant and
went after him and got almost to his
mouse when he met him. He was

lar now that as might be expected
its sway has extended to the world
Of sports. The ensemble suit OF
kasha Is the very smartest and 1t Is
also very practical for the coat car
frequently be used with all ones
other sport things.
The chic Of flannel must not be
overlooked in this rage for kasha
as many a smart flannel sports frock
will be seen at all the most fashion
able summering places.
The Sports Coat
OF course. with kasha as the lead
ing fabric, many Of the sports coats
are developed in it. They are de-
signed on very straight slender lines
with narrow shoulders. Many are
unlined and have very simple
treatment of the neck and wrist line
usually without fur trimming
Some very smart models of these
most useful coats are knitted and
embroidered in bright woods.
The woman who goes in for active
sports always needs q sweater and
skirt in her wardrobe. And the
smartest designers have not neglect
ed her needs. Natural kasha or
cashmere fashions many a simple
skirt ideal for the most strenuous of
sports. Some of these skirts are
pleated. others are straight Of line
with an inverted pleat in the front
to allow easy motion. These skirts
are also very popular in all the soft
pastel tones of the season.
Quite the most popular sweater
seen with these skirts is a simple
round or Nv" necked little slip on
These sweaters are newest with long
sleeves. They are very attractive
when they match the tone Of the
skirt or in pastel shade as a con-
trast to a skirt of natural kasha.
For Warmer Days
OF course, for really hot weather
lovely cool looking crepe de chine
will be the fabric. And how exquis-
ite pastel tones are in crepe de chine

The New Gloves

The New Gloves
The pull on glove with a carelessly
wrinkled wrist is by all odds the new
est and smartest. They have an IN
souciante unstudied effect which goes
extremely well with the carefree mode
Of today, and they are equally smart
with sports or more tailored attire.
A dainty little handkerchief which
will complete the charm of many a
summertime costume Is shaped like
flower petals and is seen in countless
gay and gaudy colors. But the hand
kerchief usually chosen to accompany
the smartest frocks, especially In the
evening, is of linen unbelievably sheer
| and fine with the smallest of hand
rolled hens. The gay linen handker-
| chief is more in the realm of sports
and tailored wear.
Purses are Still Flat
The nat purse is still the newest
purse. A very clever version is seen
for tailored wear which is a fiat
leather purse on tiny metal frame
| which Is so cleverly jointed that it
opens out into almost complete
circle, allowing easy access to the
innumerable small articles a woman
likes to carry.
However, nothing Is quite as smart
as the leather purse Of soft lizard
skin with your monogram in silver
| mounted in one corner.
For more elaborate occasions the
nat silk purse sometimes in bright
colors or gaily embroidered and others
exquisitely trimmed with petit point.
But, of course, the luxurious beauty,
of softly beaded bag must never be
forgotten for 1t never seems to go out
Of fashion-especially with the soft
and graceful frocks Of afternoon.

there is quite a variety as far as
shapes go.
A group of hat makers attempted to
put over the green hat, but the sue
cess Of this venture wasn't as marked
as the sale of the book called 1.-THE
Green Hat" A second effort will be
made this Spring. but the retailers
forecast doesn't speak any too hope
fully.
Light colors, Of course. will be the
vogue. Among them pearl grays
promise to give every other shade the
battle for popularity. Then there
will be tans and few lavenders to
match the suits Of the same tone.
Sailor Straws Continue

It is going to be pastel summer!
And the loveliest shades you ever
dreamed Of are leading the mode to
4 more utterly becoming beauty than
ever before. Soft shades OF peach
are most popular while lilac or law
ender, pale green. blue, light yellow
in fact, all the most exquisite pastel
shades form a close second. White
has passed its zenith Of popularity
and II one does not wish to wear the
pastel shades q lovely tone Of ivory
or an oyster white is very smart.
For Cooler Days
For early Spring sports wear and
for cooler days of summer kasha IN
soft pastel tones is very popular and
natural kasha seems to have taken
the smart world by storm. These
kasha frocks are newest in the two
piece models. The skirts are fuller
than before allowing much more
grace and comfort Of motion. Many
Of them have an inverted pleat IN
the middle or side front for though
this years skirts are fuller, the lines
especially Of sport frocks, are
straight. Some Of these skirts are
entirely pleated while others have a
circular fullness just across the
front.
The blouse Is generally a simple
straight little slip on with a "V'
neck.
But though the two piece costume
reigns as favorite. some smartly
simple kasha frocks are one piece.
These one piece frocks. for varia-
TONS sake. are frequently seen made
with a lighter shade Of kasha from
the neck to the hip-line, and q
slightly darker shade from the hip
line to the bottom Of the frock. Many
perfectly charming color combina-
tions are seen, some Of the loveliest.
Of which have oyster white or nat

ito pastel shade.
