TOM HUBBARD
SAVES LIFE OF
YOUNG HARRIS

About noon last Saturday, IT.
year-old Aleck Harris, experienced
very narrow escape from drown
ing in Clear Creek and but for the
action of Tom Hubbard, who keeps
the refreshment stand, the expert
ence would have proved fatal, ac-
cording to eye witnesses who wit
messed the rescue.
Harris, with some other boys
were swimming and playing just
below the dam. and yelling, as
boys generally do, at the "old swim
min hole" and Hubbard at first
did not recognize their yells for as
sistance, so that when he had
learned something was wrong and
hurried from the bath house to the
dam, he was told that boy was
drowning there, and was under the
water.
Hubbard Immediately entered the
water, and after some searching
found the boy lying prone on the
bottom of a small hole about seven
feet deep, and experienced great
difficulty getting him to the sur
face and by the time he got to the
bank, was unable to lift the boy
out of the water. Mr.. J. n. Davis
helped get Harris out of the water,
and to all appearances the boy was
dead. Prompt first aid methods
were restorted to with the result
that young Harris soon was reviv-
ed and he was brought to town by
Davis, after he seemed to be out
of danger, and was later treated by
a physician.
Everyone who saw the rescue
credits Mr.. Hubbard with unusual
skill and bravery and with his
knowledge of life saving methods,
there is no doubt but that Harris
owes his life to Hubbard's prompt
actions.

Gov. Hunt Asks For
Greater Care From
Highway Travellers

Danger caused by careless driv-
ing has grown to such proportions
in the state that no less a person
than the chief executive of Arizona
has made a proclamation stressing
the necessity of extreme care in
driving over the highways. These
proclamations have been broad
cast over the state in an effort to
cut down the fatalities resulting
from traffic accidents
The fact that speeding and lack
of care at railroad crossings are
responsible for many of these ac-
cidents, that ordinary care would
prevent many of them, and that
during the coming months the in
crease of highway travel will add
to the hazard are brought out in
the proclamation, the closing para
graph of which follows:
"Now, therefore, l, George w. P.
Hunt, Governor of Arizona, call
upon the people to take particular
care, especially during the next
few months, in driving over the
public highways, that they drive
at reduced speeds; that on ap-
preaching curves they slow down
and sound their horns and that
upon the grades the speed of the
car be regulated so that it is al
ways under control, and that in
approaching railroad crossings par
ticular care be taken to observe
whether a train is approaching, and
if so, that the train be given the
right of way"

LAST WEEK BEFORE
CHEST DRIVE FINDS
COMMITTEE READY

Monday, June 7th is not a me-
morable date at present. 1t is not
the anniversary of any tremendous
happening, but it marks the start
of the first Community Chest drive
ever to be staged in Winslow, and
if the drive proves as successful as
it should it will be remembered as
the birthdate of a great movement,
as far as Winslow is concerned,
one which provides for all worthy
charities in a systematic, business
like way, and at the same time
saving trouble and money for those
who contributed to any form of well
fare or charitable work.
By the only measuring stick that
is available, that is, results where
ever the chest plan has been used,
it is apparent that the coming drive
will be a success from every angle.
It is Immediately obvious that one
drive a year, where all give a lit
tie, is a much more feasible plan
than drive for each charity, where
the expense of a thorough-going
drive prohibits complete canvass
of the district.
The organization that is working
to make the Community Chest a
reality is practically complete now
A few appointments to positions of
lieutenant" or captain" of a COM
pany of solicitors are all that is
needed to round out the army that
will start Monday to cover Wins
low entirely.
The committee states that it can
not be impressed too strongly how
much to both subscriber and char
ity the chest idea saves, in time as
we'll as in money AS explained
above, individual charities cannot
stand the expense of an intensive
drive, and as result, all who can
afford to give, or would give if
solicited, cannot be seen. The
uneven distribution of the burden
on business men and others easy
of access is also an unpleasant fea-
ture of the old style drive.
Under the chest plan, no expense
is incurred by the, charities. Vol
unteer workers aollect the funds,
and the money is turned over to

School Ends With
Three Days Grad
Programs Here

Sunday, Monday and Tuesday,
graduates of Winslow high school
had the center of the stage, and
went out of their prep school days
in the usual blaze of glory. In the
case of the eighth graders, who
held their exercises Monday after
noon, the program marked the end
of just another school year, except
that in the coming term they will
be full-fedged high school students.
Sunday was church day for the
grades, with Rev. VIM. r. Hessell
delivering the Baccalaureate ad-
dress at Washington auditorium.
All other ministers of Winslow took
part in the services, and Mrs. Bill
O'Hara and Mrs. P. T. Liljedahl
furnished the musical side of the
program.
The senior class had their final
inning Monday, which was Glass
Day. The class president, class
prophet, and other class officers
and notables took part in the pro-
gram, and awards were made and
addresses given by members of the
faculty. Various musical offerings
featured tie program, with all tai
ent drawn from the graduating
class.
The feature of the commence
ment exercises was the address
given by DR.. Norman Fenton, of the
Tempe State Teachers College, who
will also deliver the commence
ment address at the exercises of
Northern Arizona Teachers College
in Flagstaff, next week. Speaking
on "The Meaning of Modern Edu-
cation" DR.. Fenton gave his audi
ence clear insight into the why's
and wherefores of the modern style
of education.
DR.. Fenton said that in the past
school life was not sufficiently like
the life outside of school, and that
as a consequence, child out of
school often appeared as a misfit

STREET LIGHTS TO
BE WORKING SOON
ON "WHITE WAY

The nebulous dream of street
lights for Winslow, which was only
vaguely considered a month or two
ago, is taking form at such a rate
now that the white Way" is al
most reality now, and in a short
time the Juice" will be turned on
in the new system.
At nearly every point provided,
the standards have been erected,
and the cable, whole late arrival
delayed the work for some time,
has been laid in the conduits.
At the time the conduits were
first laid, no practical map of their
location was made, and some days
were lost in locating their termin-
ais. This trouble has all been
ironed out, and all wire carriers
located.
All that remains to complete the
system is small amount of ''fin-
ishing up" the addition of the
globes, and switching on the cleo
tricity.
