State, in the called statements of
Sept. 80 and June 80.
Savings Increase
In practically all instances these
reports showed that savings deposits
were increasing throughout the
State.
Such condition, Barr said, means
that the people of the State are at
tempting to regain their financial
balance.
. Another feature shown by COM
parison of the reports was that in
practically all instances a big de-
crease has been shown in the amount
Of loans made by the banks.
Barr pointed out that such a con-
dition can be taken to mean only
one thing-that the people OF the
State are saving their money and
then paying off such loans as they
have outstanding.

Barr made this statement after a

institutions.
The analysis was made by COM

prosperity is condition that is
above the average. The figures do
mean, however, that the people Of
the State are building a solid founda-
ton upon which prosperity will De

While a decrease in the amount
shown as demand deposits" or
checking accounts was noted Barr
explained that such money as is
held as demand deposits is usually
the money Used for liquidating
loans
Figures Significant
He pointed out that where ever a
decrease in the amount of demand
deposits was shown there was a
corresponding decrease in the
amount of loans.
During the three months covered
by the figures none Of the gains in
deposits were sensationally large,
and the amount of retired loans also
were not exceedingly great.

CHAS. ERICKSON
TRAVELS TO THE
INDIAN VILLAGES
BY CHARLES ERICKSON.

Leaving Winslow at an early
hour Rex Mccoy, son of the great
open spaces and excellent camp fire
trail guide, and l headed north a
short while after crossing the big
bridge which spans the Little Col
orado river three miles east of
town.
We occupied the front seat of
Buick car while our tarpaulinS,
canteens, guns, cooking parapher-
MALTA and box of stomach supplies
held down the rear end of the auto.
The trip was taken merely to see
some of Natures most beautiful
handiwork, which the Great Master
was kind enough to bestow within
the boundary lines of our golden
state of Arizona.
Our first stop was in the heart of
the colorful Painted Desert, where
we gazed with awe upon the scenic
wonder It's crags and crevices and
level floors, streaked with red,
green, yellow, blue, white, black,
and every color Of the most exag-
gerate rainbow, which, aided by the
sun, move with dazzling swiftness
as though playing hide-and-seek,
make it indeed a soothing sight for
tired city eyes. Then of a sudden
we were conscious of some living
thing moving far off and by the aid
of field glasses found it to be moth
ing more nor less than a coyote
making an inspection tour where
he reignS supreme.
Motoring on, over seemingly
knever-ending prairie, stopping only
now and then to register odd for
nations on a kodak film, we kept
in northeasterly direction until
about thirty-five miles out a vacant
sensation in our stomachs over
powered us and a halt was made
for dinner among the cedars.
Because of the keen eye and
quick draw" of Rex, we prepared
a couple of nice Dummies, some po-
tatoes, made coffee and, with bread,
butter, pickles and cookies, were
about to devour our repast when
as if he had sprung right out of the

presence and without much coax
ing assisted in cleaning the plat
ter" Pretty soft-and nervy, too
I'll say, to wait until dinner was
on the table-er, l mean on the
! canvas-to pay us his respects
And he didn't even help wash the
dishes afterWard.
A short distance farther on we
stopped between two buttes and
climbing up to the summit of one
we spied a hawks nest with five
speckled eggs. But as it was some
five or six feet down from the TOP
and on a perpendicular side, we
hesitated about collecting souve-
mir until. after closely sizing up the
situation, Rex yentured over the
edge, remarking, Columbus took d

chance, SO here [ 60" Holy mack
erel! 1 thought he had gone crazy
and was so scared that l even
failed to get a snapshot. of his dar-
ing act. Back he climbed with a
couple of eggs and we descended
to the car and drove away, leaving
the old mother hawk quite indig-
nant.
Coming to Dilcon trading post,
we stopped and | had an old Nav
ajo Indian, who is a judge at Leupp,
all set for picture with his star
of authority proudly showing but
when [ produced the camera he i'm

hind the counter.
Cedar Springs was our next rest
ing place, and there the trader in
duced more civilized and less SUI
perstitious~ buck to pose with us
for picture. Leaving here, we de-
cided to continue on to Keams Can
yon inasmuch as the roads were, in
excellent condition.
Driving along at a good rate of
speed through beautiful purple
sage, causing the little prairie dogs
and jack rabbits to run for their
dugouts and guessing the right road
to take at all the forks, we soon
descended into gigantic Keams
Canyon, which, to my mind and
The Winslow mail., 1925-04-17

sunburned skin, should be called
the earht's bake oven, or at least a
parboiler! 1t is, however, a very
pretty spot and is so dry that the
heat waves are very visible. Gosh,
it's no wonder the Hopi Indians
even dance with snakes to enter
tain the Great Spirit so He will
send them rain. That sun would
make a person do most anything.
If hell is any hotter yours truly is
going to stick to the straight and
narrow from now on out.
While in Polacca we climbed to
the top of the mesa and viewed the
grounds where the next snake
dance is to be held in August. Po-
lacca is a very neat and well-kept
village, with stone houses or hogans
and the jewellers are all Hopis-
even to the traders.
Continuing north over the second
mesa and on the floor of the can
yon, we entered the village of
Keams Canyon, which is surround
ed by cedars and is sort of an
oasis, where the United States
government maintains large
school for the education of the red
man. The buildings are of fine
construction and the teachers seem
to be deeply interested in their
wonderful work.
The storekeeper was especially
