equally between the Hamilton COM
pany and the local stockholders. This
assures the investor not only Of a
definite return on his stock but also
a certainty that the hotel will be
operated according to the standards
of the Hamilton chain which have, in
all instances, been extremely satisfac-
tory and profitable to all concerned.
Flagstaff will also derive, under
this system Of chain operation, addi-
tional benefits due to the fact that
tourists and commercial travellers will
be referred to Flagstaff from the
many other hotels in this string and
in this way, will keep a continual
stream of pleasure-seekers and busi-
ness people pouring into the city.
J.. A. Webster, the campaign exc
cutiye of the Hockenbury System,
Inc, in his report Monday night,
said, Flagstaff is to be congratu-
lated on the splendid spirit she has
displayed and is displaying, in the
opening days of this campaign.
81 have never, in the fifty or more
drives that have handled in the past,
seen a finer spirit and / feel perfect
'ly confident that the campaign will
prove SUCCESSFUL and that next spring
will see the opening Of Flagstaff's
new tourist and commercial hotel.'

ROY CARLOS OF WINONA
DIED OF PNEUMONIA

Roy Cornish Carlos, next to young
est son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Z. S. Carlos,
of Winona, died Of flu-pneumonia
Sunday evening at z o'clock at the
family home near Winona. Illness of
not quite week preceded death. The
funeral was held on Tuesday after
noon from Flagstaff Undertaking par
lors, Rev. H. f. Softley conducting
the services. These friends acted as
pail bearers: John Piper, Robert
Piper, Ernest Sproat, Theodore Slay-
ton, Marvin Parsons and S. Willis.
Roy Carlos was born in Flagstaff
10 years ago last New Years day.
His is one of the pioneer families
here, having come to Flagstaff in
1901. In 1911 they homesteaded near
Winona, where they have lived ever
since.
This is the third son that has been
taken in his prize by death. Rafael
Carlos was killed in action in France
in 1918, and George Dewey Carlos
was killed by lightning near Winona
in 1921.
Besides the father and mother there
remain these brothers and sisters to
mourn the sudden death of their
brother; Mrs. Matt Ellis of Flagstaff,
Mrs. Sam Campbell of Winona, Mrs.
Annie Henderson of Globe and Elmer
and Wilbur Carlos of Winona.
Having spent practically all his life
in Flagstaff and vicinity, Roy Carlos
leaves many young friends who will
miss his genial and kindly personality.

May, and prior to that time, a COM
plete survey of possible investors is
being made in order that all avail
able material will be ready for the
statesmen when the drive opens.
The site of the hotel at the corner
of San Francisco street and Aspen
avenue was officially approved by the
committee at Monday nights meeting
as we'll as the engaging of the Fl. l..
Stevens company of San Francisco,
specialists in hotel construction, to
have charge of the construction of the
building. The operators for the new
hotel were also approved and the
Hamilton Hotels company Of Los An
geles was awarded this contract.
Several sites, numbering five in all,
have been suggested to the committee
and all were given very carful con-
sideration. 1t was thought, however,
that inasmuch as Flagstaff's new
hotel was to be a combined tourist
and commercial house that the site
selected on San Francisco street and
Aspen avenue was the most advan~
tageous from this point of view. The
Hockenbury System, Inc, in charge of
the campaign, also recommended this
site, as they felt it embraced all the
features necessary for this type OF
building.
With the H. L. Stevens company in
charge of the construction of the
building, local contractors and local
labor will be given an opportunity to
take part in the work. According to
the terms Of their contract, all bids
will be submitted to the board of di-
rectors of the hotel company for de-
cision.
A guarantee not to exceed the es-
tinated costs in the construction of
the building is also included IN the
contract of the supervising company.
Also, in case of the construction costs
being less than the estimates, the
amount saved will be credited to the
hotel company. In many cases, on IN
vestigation, it was found by the COM
mittee that the Stevens company was
able to save the hotel company con-
siderable money on their building, as
in the case of Bakersfield.
In the operation of the hotel, it was
the consensus of opinion of the exc
cutive committee that the chain
operating system was the most de-
sirable for Flagstaff. All were in fa-
vor of outside operation as compared
with local, feeling that it was the
most efficient, economical and assur-
ing the investors of the maximum
realization on their investment. With
these thoughts in mind, the committee
selected the Hamilton Hotels company
Of Los Angeles as the logical ones to
operate Flagstaff's hotel This COM
pany is the outstanding chain system
of the west coast and among the
hotels operated by it at present are
those at Fresno, Bakersfield, River
side, MarysviHe, Tracy and Rich
mond.
This operating company, according
to their contract, will receive no COM
pensation until after all operating eX-
penses and fixed charges are met and
the 7 per cent dividend has been paid
on the preferred stock. The surplus
met earnings will then be divided

C. E. DEVANEY NOW SOLE
OWNER OF SHOE STORE

w. d. Draine yesterday sold his
half interest in the d. D. Bootery to
his partner, c. E. DeVaney. Mr..
Draine contemplates leaving soon for
California to visit his father and
prospect for another business location.
Mr.. and Mrs. Draine have been iden-
titled with Flagstaff business and
social activities for so many years
that it is hoped their trip to the
coast will amount to visit only.
The Bootery opened for business
just year ago and fills niche all
its own as a speciality shop. The
patronage enjoyed by Messrs. De-
Vaney and Draine will doubtless con-
tinue under the sole management Of
Mr.. DeVaney, whose long experience

Courtesy of Tourist
Stressed bv Mobile

The hospitality of the old South. a
more or less abstract quantity with
the many busy southern cities today,
will be put into immediate greater
use by the automotive committee Of
the chamber Of commerce, which has
decided that the tourist is the guest
of the city, the Mobile (Ala.) Register
recently announced.
Labeled as a guest, the tourist will
be treated as one by the city, and
every attention will be made by the
city to entertain and accommodate the
visitor.
The tourist in all probability will
ton operator first of ALL it was
thought, and the operator will direct
him to the chamber of commerce.
where he will register and receive a
guest card and guest marker. The
guest card will entitle him to GER
tain advantages that the native has
not, while the guest marker will fit
on his radiator and announce to the
city at large that he is stranger
within the gates.
The city in turn, recognizing him as
guest, will seek to serve him hos
pitably and the traffic officer will give
him the courteous cooperation
stranger always needs among unfa-
miliar traffic regulations.
In addition to the guest designation,
the visiting tourist will be given ac-
curate and detailed information con-
cerning the city.
The automotive merchants agreed
unanimously that their employees
must be familiar with the city in or
der that they will be able to supply
tourists with information.
The proper use of hands in signaling
when driving was discussed by the
committee. The arm extended at a
45-degree angle upward should indi-
cate turn to the right, and straight
out a turn to the left. The arm point
ing downward, palm forward, should
mean a stop, and the same signal
with the palm backward reverse.

The women of Atlantic County are
represented on the January Grand Ju-
ry by Mrs. Clark Adams, of Pleasant
vile, wife of the freeholder and popu-
lar electrician. The lone jurywoman
anticipates a most interesting time.
Already the jurymen, the county pros
ecutor and court attendants assure
her that her duties will be light and
not burdensome. In fact close eX-
animation of the docket fails to find
any OF the major crimes and leads to
the conclusion that the malefactors,
outlaws, gunmen, burglars and MUIR
derers are beginning to manifest
wholesome respect for the law and it's
upholders in Atlantic County. By
some rare foresight they determined
that the January Grand Jury was a
good one to keep away from. Mrs
Adams declares that she does not
know anything about this phase of it
and anyhow is there to use her own
good Judgment
