sues. Last-minute minor changes
in the tentative platform drawn
last week delayed the convening
OF the Democratic delegates, but
once under way, the adoption of
party creed was completed in
less than twenty minutes.
In the main the platform stands
for retention of the direct primary
system, and the shifting of the
election date from June back to
September; repeal of the several
prohibition amendments, State
and National, and the strengthen
ing of the Corrupt Practices act.
On the question Of whether the
present direct primary system be
retained or modified, the Demo-
cratic plank reads: 1--WE express
our belief that the managers of
the Republican party, becoming
alarmed at the active interest in
primary contests of the women,
who cannot be controlled, have
determined to remove from the di-
rect control of the voters the Sc

restoration is conceded as signal
victory for United States Senator
Walter E. Edge, and former Gov.
ernor E. C. Stokes, Republican
State chairman, its sponsors and
keenest proponents.
Adoption of the proposal to
scrap the primaries was forced by
the Edge-Stokes delegates, after
they had beaten a resolution offer
ed by State Senator Harry A.
Williams, of Passaic, to submit it
in referendum form at the next
general election.
The Republican declaration on
the liquor issue remains the same
as last year. Summed up, it is
strict enforcement of the Federal
and State enforcement laws as
long as they remain on the stat
ute books.

which inhabits the waters of the
pond. There are pickerel, cat

In the minds of those who
know the pond will always be
the sound of the quail, the night
call of the birds, which brings to
our minds the almighty works of
the Creator of the Universe.
What boy living around this
vicinity does not know and love
the old pond as a swimming hole,
and as James Whitcomb Riley
says:
"Oh, the old swimmin'-hole in the
long, lazy days,
When the humdrum of school
made SO many run-a-ways,
How pleasant was the journey
down the old dusty lane,
Where the tracks of our bare feet
was all printed so plain
You could tell by the dent of the

They was lots O. fun on hand at

AS you have been motoring
along the country roads you may
have seen the sign advertising
the "Mill Pond Tea Room"
The pond referred to is the
Bargaintown Pond, about a mile
west of Linwood.
The pond was once cedar
swamp through whisch flowed
Patcong Creek. On one side of
the swamp was the home of one
OF my ancestors, James Somers.
Near here was the home of my
great great grandfather, Samuel
Somers, which was built of brick
made on the place. live in the
same house with my grandmoth-
er, who was born there.
An Indian trail crossed the
fields and in one place many oys-
ter and clam shells are to be
found.
The swamp was about a quar-
ter of a mile wide and was a bar
rier between James Somers and
the people on the opposite side.
James Somers was a slave-hol-
der. Tradition says that wo-
man slave carried stones in her
apron, making path to cross
the swamp and thereby gained
her freedom.
Some people say as result of
this bargain, the place in which
she lived was afterwards called
Bargaintown.
A dam was afterwards con-
structed where the woman had
made her crossway of stones. A
road was then built.
A saw-mill was built at the
west end of the dam and a grist-
mill at the east end. The saw
mill was last operated in 1908,
while the grist-mill operated un-
til 1918, and now stands in
somewhat dilapidated condition,
owing to the work of vandals.
One old milestone was worked
into the foundation of the mill,
and may be seen there. Two
others are to be seen beside the
mill The old mill is now used
as a refreshment store for bath
ers and others.

mer time without the appearance
of someone with rod and line to

City Ships Ice to
Supply Shortage
In Skylight City

To supply the Flagstaff shortage
in ice, during the short period of
real summer that the Skylight City
experiences about this time of the
year, the City Ice Delivery Service
of Winslow this week shipped to
Babbitt Brothers, of Flag" who
furnish what little ice is needed
there, the third carload of the froz-
en- summer necessity, since June
9th.
Shipment of ice from Winslow to
Flagstaff is nothing new, according
to city officials, as this is a yearly
occurrence, due to the fact that at
all other times of the year the
Flagstaffites do not find it neces-
sary to use as much ice as at this
particular period of the year, when
the Babbitt plant finds itself over
taxed to supply the demand. Wins
low being the logical point of sup
ply, the demand is filled from here
and this year, the city having the
contract, made the shipments
which net a neat little profit.

Start Work On
improvements AT
Arcadia Hall

Sam Pritchard, owner of North
ern Arizona's finest dance auditor
ium-the Arcadia, this week an
nounced that furniture and equip
ment having arrived, work of re-
modelling the interior of the big au-
ditorium would start at once.
According to Pritchard the plans
call for installation of permanent
railing completely encircling the
dance floor and separating it from
the spectators. New individual
theater-type seats are to be install
ed on three sides of the big hall
furnishing seating capacity for ev-
eryone attending the dance func-
tions.
New electrical fixtures, draperies
and decorative lanterns are also to
be installed, while the entire in
terror will be repainted and decor
ated to blend with the new plan. In
the rear of the building on each
side will be installed both ladies'
and gents dressing rooms, while
the orchestra platform is to be low
cred and encased in an arch which
will furnish better acoustics and
Instrumentation.
1t will take several weeks to
complete the work, Pritchard an
nounced. However it will be done
in manner not to interfere with
the regular dances.

Ten Year Old Boy
Rescue Little Tot
From Watery Grave

An outstanding act Of bravery,
especially for a lad of his age, was
performed last Monday evening at
Clear Creek when little ten-year-
old Cecil Haynes, son of Motorcy-
Gle coy George Haynes, rescued
Roy Sutherland, seven-year-old
son of Mrs. Elsie Sutherland, who
became distressed in deep water
The younger boy, unable to swim
very well, became frightened and
had disappeared below the surface
Of the water twice when the Haynes
boy, hearing his cries for help,
rushed to his rescue and brought
the little fellow safely to shore.
This was not accomplished, how
ever, without some difficulty, as
the Sutherland boy had inhaled a
quantity of water and was fighting
hard when young Haynes reached
him and started toward shore.

Local Men Hurt
In Auto Accident
Near Snowflake

While returning from the ball
game at McNary last Sunday eve-
ming, the auto being driven by ].
E. Kleindienst, local roundhouse
foreman, and occupied by several
players, turned turtle on a curve
at the bottom of steep hill be-
tween Snowflake and McNary, with
the result that occupants of the car
were badly injured.
Kleindienst, who was driving his
own car, suffered the worst dam
age, one of his cars having been
badly torn when he struck the
ground, his collar bone broken and
his right hand badly lacerated, the
flesh having been torn from the
bones. Stanley Thomas suffered
three broken ribs and Roy Justice,
another occupant of the car, was
badly bruised and skinned. All
were taken to Snowflake by other
members of the team who were
enroute home. Monday Kleindienst
who was the most severely injured
was taken to the Santa Fe hospital
at Los Angeles for treatment. Mrs
Kleindienst, who is visiting on the
coast, met him at Los Angeles. His
injuries, while painful, will not
prove fatal.
Cause of the accident is unex-
planned, although it is believed that
the gears slipped out of mesh while
descending down the grade and the
brakes failed to hold.
