Gammage was vice president last

words for a few moments.

that the increase over last year will

quently together, and with the medi-
cal director and superintendent, or
such other officers, doctors and ag-
ents as have direct control of the op-
GRAFTON of the sanatorium. They
shall ordinarily be the medium of
communication between the local
board from time to time during the
year the nature of all complaints of
physicians and others connected with
the sanatorium, and arising from the
conduct of the same, and shall per-
form such other duties as may be
demanded of them by the local board
of directors or the board of trustees. !"
In reading over these bylaws of
this sanatorium it is found that the
governing of this institution is to be
mainly in the hands of the local
board of directors, which will be cho-
sen from this city. They will ap-
point the superintendent, staff of
physicians, nurses, business mana
ger, office assistants, in fact every
one that has anything to do with the
operation of this institution. They
will also have to pass on the con-
struction of the building, the letting
of contracts and all such matters
pertaining to building construction.
With this thought in mind it is
plain to be seen that Flagstaff will
benefit in very marked degree by
havin gthis sanitorium in or near
this city.
Relative to the location of this hos
pital at this point, the Coconino
County Medical society issues the
following statement, in recent let.
ter to this national organization, in
part: "Our climate closely resem
bles that in the Alps of Switzerland
where noted sanatoriums for tuber-
cular treatment are located.
We most respectfully ask that you
investigate our location, and assure
you that we will be pleased to rem

showing you what we have here"

ROY PERRY DIED OF
TYPHOID SATURDAY

Roy Perry, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry Perry of Garland Prairie,
died OF typhoid fever last Saturday
at Mercy hospital, where he was
brought eight days previously after
being i'll at home for. about two
weeks. He had contracted the dis
ease while on a trip away from
home and had not realized what
caused his illness until it had pro-
gressed beyond where recovery was
not possible.
Roy, the third child of Mr.. and
Mrs. Perry, was born in Missouri
about twenty-six and half years
ago. With his family he came to
Garland Prairie more than ten years
ago, assisting on his fathers farm
He was unmarried. Left to miss his
cheerful presence are his parents,
three sisters, Miss Edith Perry,
teacher at Pittman Valley; Mrs.
Stella Thomas, who lives in the east
and a small sister at home, and two
brothers, Clarence Perry OF Pittman

BIG GAME HUNTERS
AFTER PRIZE RIFLE
AT BILLY SWITZER'S IS

Be sure to weigh that buck when
you bring him in. Many people miss
their guess on the weight Of deer.
Last year in Phoenix 180 pound
buck won the prize given by a sport
ing goods house. Though larger deer
were brought in, the men who killed
them neglected to weigh them, think
ing q big buck should weigh three or
four hundred pounds. Billy Switzer
saws it takes q real big buck to weigh
over 200 pounds. He will have block
and tackle and scales all rugged up
in front of his store to weigh your
kill and will be glad to do it.
He reports much interest being
shown. Many outside hunters are
procuring nonresident licenses and
heading for the Kaibab forest to get
their fdeer.

FLAGSTAFF IS TIED WITH
COLO. SPRINGS BID FOR
CHILDREN'S SANITORI(JM

With the return of P. J. Moran,
president of the Flagstaff Chamber
of Commerce and DR.. Nj. G.. Fronske
of the Coconino County Medical So
ciety, from Oklahoma City, Okla,
where they attended the meeting of
the board of directors of the Nation
al Hospital for Tuberculous Children,
Inc. held there last Saturday, came
the news that Flagstaff and Colora-
do Springs were the two cities left
in the ring, one of which will be Sc
lected as the site for this national
institution.
Inasmuch as some fourteen cities
were considered at the opening of
this meeting in Oklahoma City, and
Flagstaff is one of the two to re-
main, the outlook is favorable.
1--WE can secure this institution" !"
said Mr.. Moran, on his return today
''if we have the support of the state
as whole and we feel that this is
quite possible inasmuch as it is now
an Arizona project"
In outlining the objects of this hos
pital, Mr.. Moran said that the major
ity of cases that will be cared for
will be bone and not lung cases, as
children rarely develop the latter
type of tuberculosis. There will be
$50 bed-ridden cases of children of
the United States sent to this point
and their entire care as far health,
education and recreation, will be ta-
ken care of within the limits of the
institution.
In article II of the bylaws of the
National Sanatorium it states: "The
sanitoriuum shall be non-sectarian
and shall accept children only. The
treatment of children in said sana-
torium is to be governed by such
rules and regulations as the medical
director and staff physicians attach
ed thereto shall promulgate from
time to time. The principal purpose
of this corporation is not only to
provide sanatorium and educational
treatment and facilities for such as
are unable to pay for same, but also
to provide equal treatment and faeil-
tiles at nominal cost for those who
are able to pay.
Miscellaneous duties of the sana-
torium: The government of the san
atorium shall be vested in a local
board composed Of five directors at
least Lnree OF WnOfH SHAH De Ieoi-
dents of the town or city within or
near which such sanatorium shall be
located, which directors shall be di-
rected by the trustees for q term, in
the first instance, to the next regu-
lar annual meeting of the board Of
trustees, and thereafter for the term
of two years, and until their success
sors are elected.
'sThe local board of directors shall
appoint a committee composed of its
members for the purpose of making
such visits as may be deemed neces-
sary to the sanatorium to familiarize
