To End Up Term

The outgoing board of supervis-
ors composed Of Chairman C. g..
Payne, c. E. Owens and w. H.
Denham will meet in Holbrook to-
day for the last time, to wind up
all unfinished business under their
administration before turning over
their office to the incoming board
OF supervisors tomorrow.
Receiving OF yearly reports,
counting OF the county's monies in
the various funds and auditing ac-
counts and bills against the coun-
ty will be the main order of busi-
ness although there may be other
matters brought beforef the out
going body.
The new board will be composed
of j. A. Greaves, of Winslow, w.
H. Chamberlain, of Holbrook, and
John L. Willis, of the upper coun-
try. According to previous an
nouncement Mr. Willis is slated as
the new chairman of the board and
R. B. Walton, of Winslow, will be
the new clerk in place of Wallace
Ellsworth, who will be the new
county treasurer, in place of Geo.
Schafer, whose term will expire.
In the other county offices, Sher-
iff L. D. Divelbess will succeed
himself and there will be no change
in his office personnel, and the
same can be said of the offices of
P. A. Sawyer, county attorney,
Hattie Flaharty, school superin-
tendent, Lloyd G. Henning, clerk Of
the Superior court, Lucretia w.
Flanagan, county recorder, w. f.
Shumway, assessor, all of whom

selves.
Judge J. E. Crosby, of the Su-
perior court, will also take the
oath for a new four-year term, hav-
ing been reelected to succeed him
self.
So there will be few changes at
the court house at Holbrook, save
in the supervisors office and even
there they will retain practically
all appointees of the old board, in

Especial to The Daily MaiD

FLAGSTAFF, Dec. 30.-Rumors
are rife around the court house
here about the contemplated re-
trenchment policy of the new board
OF supervisors. Some of them were
elected on platforms pledging
them to extreme economy. The
glances that pass from one deputy
to another today seem to say. "If
so, what?''
Tomorrow the old board meets
for the last time and all demands
are being hustled in tonight.
Monday the new supervisors take
office, and the proceedings will be
watched by every one who has any
hopes Of seeing his or her name
on a county warrant at any time
next year.
Tonight the women of the court
house are forgetting politics and
jAining in an elaborate farewell
dinner to Mrs. Ann Frohmiller at
the home of Judge and Mrs. j. F..
Jones. Mrs. Frohmiller, who has
discharged the duties of the county
treasurer's office most efficiently
for four years, goes to Phoenix to-
morrasy night to begin Saturday on
her new work as state treasurer.

Mary Jackie and Mrs. Estelle Bird,
Will accompany her and serve as

that those charged with the re-
sponsibility for making law and
enforcing it, may be given courage
ana wisdom to the end that our
great country may receive full ben

messages to the feet Of celebrantS,

lation free from paralysis will
answer the call of jazz, but there
is no Ritz-Carlton here to raise it's
cover charges to SIS.
Churches will shelter young peo-
pie, banded together to hold their
watch parties; members of the
Elks will be at their home for the
Eleventh Annual New Years Ball
of B.P.OE. No. 536, and in almost
every home the midnight oil will
burn at least until few moments
after midnight.
No Click OF Handouts
1t is feared by some and hoped
by others that, the moonshilfers
which are strongly suspected of
being in the hills to the south, have
gathered their choicest wares in
large quantities, and will be on
hand, or in the alleys, to furnish a
liquid incentive to the joy that is
unrefined. Pardon-unCONfned!
However, it is almost cinch
that there will be no rough houses
at any public place. Winslow is
always noted for the abandon with
which it celebrates significant
dates, but it is seldom, indeed that
the click of handouts rises above
the sounds OF. seemly mirth.

Williams Rotary
Member AsksNew
City Hall In 1927
Special to The Daily Mail

WILLIAMS, Dec. 3O-The build
ing OF new town hall to house all
municipal offices, as we'll as the
Justices court, and the city Jail, the
removal of warehouses to a. loca-
ton east Of First street, and the.
laying. out of a 9-hole municipal
golf course on Weber Field, were
the objectives for 1927, suggested
by l.. S. Williams, town clerk, at
the Rotary luncheon here this aft
eEnoon.
Mr.. Williams, instead of asking
for individual resolutions from Ro-
tary members, asked them to con-.
slider this program as the logical
advance to be hoped for in Will
liams during the coming year.
AS an encouragement he cited
the following great improvements
achieved during 1927 Paving
bonds, deep burial of water pipes
at cost Of $500, improvement of
streets, repairs on dam, and the,
new boiler purchased for the cleo
trio light plant at a cost of $6S00.
In spite of the very low tempera-.
ture during the past few weeks no.
water main has frozen, and its
ccouoc fai,,lU oorfo;p tbo4 tho a., -,
will need no further repairs for
years to come, so Williams isSs in
the speakers opinion, ready for.
new tasks. The plans outlined met
with a very favorable response
from those present.
The Odd Fellows last night con-
ferred the second and third de-
grees on five candidates: e. O..
Messimer Fred Udine, ]. r. Rich
ardson, Bill Maston of Williams,
and Roy Simmons of Flagstaff. A.
delicious lunch was served.
The Game Protective Association
Of Arizona is forming an organiza-
ton in Williams. The first meet
ing will be held next Monday eve
ming at Z o'clock at the justice of

SCHOOL HEADS
ROBBED OF BAGS
SLOWED IN AUTO

Taking advantage of few mo-
ments when a car was left un-
watched. thieves Wednesday night
relieved G. Fl. Madden, superin-
tendent of public schools, and Ben
X. Cudd, principal of the high
school, of their suit cases and
handbags, and made good their es-
cape.
Mr. Madden and MS Cudd had
Just arrived after a Journey from
Phoenix, and had stopped at the
Madden. home for "a few minutes
for a lunch. Mr.. Madden's car, in
which they. had made their jour
ney, and in which reposed their
hand-luggage, was leh unprotect-
cd at the Grub. When they re-
turned the suit cases were missing.
Officers were notified and in
formation; was given at the Santa
Fe depot platform that man, ap-
nai'ently Mexican, was seen
short time after the time of the
robbery, carrying what appeared to
be the missing bags. The inform
ant pointed out house into
which the man with the luggage
seemed to disappear, but search
a little later failed to show any
trace of the stolen articles.
A path at the side of the house
indicated that the man had gone
around the place, and the darkness
of the night had misled the wit
ness.

he will hear a sound of welcome
come up from Winslow, Arizona,
that should draw his attention
immediately to this one spot on the

and young and old will roam or

the faux pas of greeting the year
