CANTON GROCERY
STOCK ATTACHED:
FORCED SALE HELD

Attachment proceedings and a
public sale held by Marshal c. w.
Harp, marked the passing of the
Canton Grocery on First street, in
to other hands Wednesday. The
store has been in financial Difficult
ties for some time, and notice of
sale in bulk to other parties had
been given some time ago. Dis
satisfied creditors, however, attach
ed the stock of the grocery, and
the forced sale was the result.
The attachments were three in
number, and were filed by the Car
duff Transfer company, Winslow,
Lorenzo Hubbell, Jr., of Winslow,
and the Haymon Krupp company,
of FL Paso, Texas. Accumulated
debts of the store amounted to
some $2,60000 and the proceeds of
the sale were only $562.OO, which
will necessitate more legal action
on the part of the creditors, and
it is likely that the establishment
will be thrown into bankruptcy
court.
Various people of Winslow pur-
chased parts of the stock. The ma
jOrity was purchased by Woo Yew
Lun and Ho Yuck Yee, who will
continue to carry on the business
in the same location.

Columbian Age
Skeletons Found
North Of Winslow

According to a report received
here this week from the director of
Smithsonian Institution at Wash
ington, a skeleton found in the an
cient Indian ruins six miles north
of Wlnslow dates back to pre-Co-
lumbian age, it has been calculated
by the scientists of the institution.
About month ago Chas. Thomas,
printer employed on the Winslow
Mail, VINO spends most of his spare
time in exploring, accompanied by
E. o. Brinninstool, while digging
into an old Indian ruin in a mound,
which evidently had been a former
habitation of the residents of north
ern Arizona several hundred years
ago, found perfectly preserved
skull over which had been placed
piece of Indian pottery, both of
which were complete.
The skull was sent as a gift to
the institution at Washington for
study by scientists, and this week
the report was received that it was
no doubt of the pre-Columbian age.
Undoubtedly, the report stated, as
the Hopi Indians of Northern Ari-
zona believe, the remains of the
Indians are those of the ancestors
of the Hopi tribe.
On former occasions fine speci-
mems of pottery have been uncov-
cred in the ruins which abound
north of here only few miles and
at one time specimens of corn,
grown by the early day Indians
were found in some pottery, show
ing that the ancestors of the Hopis,
had learned the cultivation of corn
on the desert area.
There yet remain many unexplor-
ed ruins near here, which it is be-
lieved may yield still more evil
dences of the habits and customs
of the ancient Indians of this north
erO Arizona area

FIRST FISH YARN
OF THE 1926 SEASON
MAKES DEBUT HERE

Disciples of Izzak Walton may
dust off their lovingly stored equip
ment and prepare for a busy sess-
ion with the finny tribe, for the
fish are biting in the lakes in the
hills north of Flagstaff, according
to report brodght back by John
Drumm, F. H. Crosser, Dick Wy
rick, Zeurl Stiles and Jervis Houck,
who instituted the first expedition
from Winslow into fish territory.
This quintet of anglers deleted
the existing supply of fishes in
Northern Arizona to the extent of
some fifty of the population of
Lake Mary, and what is more,
brought back the fish to prove it.
Among the victims were several
bass, one of which measured six
teen linear inches and tipped the
scales at more than three pounds.
If this is not a record for a pre-
mier catch, it will do until one
comes along.
The fishermen report that re-
cent rains have made some parts
of the lake shores difficult of ac-
cess, but that portion, of the bank
that can be fished from yields rich
returns for little effort.

suits as shown by records and
studies of the various forms of
government by experts on munich
pal problems, and are submitted
to the people for their considera-
tlon in arriving at a decision as
to the form they wish to adopt. It
is realized that a majority of the
voters are not familiar with the
lnterworkings of their government
and the duties required of the vari-
GUS officers. While it is true that
Winslow is still a small city. the
council and officers are faced with
the same problems as the larger
cities and they must be met in a
manner which will do the greatest
number of citizens the most good.
Thls cannot be accomplished unless
each department works with every
other department for the common
good. Then and only then will the
taxpayer receive full value for each
dollar paid into the city treasury.
In any government there is a
complete cycle of financial opera
tions, which includes the planning,
appropriating, providing taxes and
other revenue, expending and con-
trolling appropriations, and ac-
counting and reporting of receipts
and expenditures. This last fea-
ture, namely, the accounting and
reporting of receipts and expendi-
lures, furnishes the basic informa-
ton with which to proceed to fur
ther planning; and so the cycle is
completed. For the purposes of
this article, we shall have to lin
it ourselves to financial planning.
What is the budget? 1t is a COM
plete plan of proposed expendi-
lures and means of financing them

COUNCIL TO
PROPOSE LOCAL
MUNICIPAL ICE
DELIVERY SERVICE

Ice-users of Winslow will have an
opportunity to purchase ice at a
much more reasonable figure than
in former years, and from a muni-
cipal ice company, if plans at pres
ent being formulated are passed on
favorably at the special meeting of
the town council, which has been
called for tonight to decide the mat
ter.
According to figures contained in
report made to the council by
Town Clerk Murphy, it will be pos
sible to sell to the consumer at ap-
proximately one-third less than the
present ice rate, with the gross to-
tai sufficient to support extra help
to care for the ice business, handle
all incidental expenses, and still
yield a small profit to the city, if
the plan materializes, it is pointed
out.
If necessary, however, the pro-
posed municipal ice company will
operate on non-profit basis, for
the lowered rate will mean a larg-
er consumption of ice and con-
siderable convenience and saving TO
all ice users, as well as making it
possible for people of limited cir
cumstances to use more ice than
formerly.
The council has been working on
the matter for some time, accord
ing to announcement and tonight's
meeting is for the purpose of de-
finitely deciding just what will be
done about the matter.

Only Ten Days Left
To File Petitions
For City Election

Only ten days remain in which
candidates for the cOuncilmen or
for the members of the board of
freeholders, who will rewrite the
city charter, remain in which petit
tions can be filed with the city
clerk so that the names may be
printed on the ballot for the BIZ
ennial election to be held on May
oath.
Notice of the city election was
issued this week by Mayor Douglas
a copy of which appears in another
column of The Mail.
May 3rd is fixed as the final day
on which petitions may be filed
for place ON the ballot, and accord
ing to law which requires that a
number of names equalling five per
cent of the total vote cast in the
last city election, there will be nee
essary between 35 and 40 names on
each petition filed. This aplies to
both candidates for councilman and
for members of the board of IA
freeholders which are to be elected
at the same time.
On the May ballot will appear
also the referendum filed against
Ordinance No. 140 providing for
the regulation of the keeping of
stock within city limits, which was
passed last October by the council.
The injunction filed by the Car
duff Transfer Co., which is still
pending in the Superior court at
Holbrook is expected to be passed
on by the time the ballots are
printed.
Forms of petition have been pre-
pared and may be had by applying
to c. L. Murphy, city clerk at the
city hall. So far no petitions have
been filed, it was announced Thurs
day.

CHANGE IN CITY GOVT
EXClTES INTEREST; SURVEY SHOWS
ADVANTAGES OF DIFFERENT FORMS

In the short space of time since
the council of Winslow passed
resolution declaring the change in
form of Winslow's government
from a town to a city charter.
some discussion has arisen in reg
ard to the merits and demerits of
various forms of city government
in use in this country. Inasmuch
as many people in Winslow are
unfamiliar with the working of
city government, the following
facts, gathered from past expert.
ence here and in other cities are
presented to show few of the
"whys and wherefores" of differ
ent plans, one of which will be
chosen for Winslow's governing
instrument, as city charter.
Winslow has, by vote of the coun-
Gil, elected to become a city and
re-organize the city government
along modern and efficient lines.
This calls for the rewriting of the
city charter. The new charter must
provide the form of government un
der which the affairs of the CITY
are to be administered. The state
laws provide that a board of free
holders consisting of fourteen mem
bers be elected by the qualified
electors of the city to frame a char.
ter and the charter must then be
accepted by majority of the cleo
tors at an election and be finally
approved by the governor. This
provision precludes any individual
or group Of individuals from fore
ing an unsuitable form of govern
ment on the people, for the people
have the final say in the matter.
The idea of this article is to give
the people the outstanding facts in
regard to the success and failure
of municipal governments of the
various forms as shown by statis-
tics. They are not merely per-
sonal opinions, but are the re-

Plans 7 o Revive The
Chamber of Commerce
Proposed To Rotary

Plans to revive the Chamber of
Commerce of Winslow, which has
been allowed to lie dormant for the
past two years, were ma&e before
members of the Rotary Club at it's
meeting Wednesday, following dis
cussions by visitors and members
and former officers of the old or
ganization.
The idea was brought up to the
club for action by Chairman for
the day A. B. Nelson, who had as
his guest c. L. Murphy, secretary
of the old organization.
Mr. Murphy in a brief address
told the Rotarians what a CONNER
cial club or Chamber of Commerce
means to city the size of Wins
low, and what had been accom-
plished by the old organization,
which due to lack of funds has
been allowed to cease its activities,
although there yet remains much
that can be done for Winslow thru
the activities of a club.
Mr.. Murphy detailed many things
that can be accomplished by a live
organization and added that Wins
low was asleep at the switch to
allow a city of this size to drift
along, with the many natural at
fractions and industrial opportuni-
ties at our doorstep to go unnoticed
because we have no organization to
boost them to prominence.
Sam Proctor, president of the old
organization, also Rotarian, told
the members what he thought of the
organization and the good it has
done and could do still provided
each individual Rotarian and other
businessmen of the city would come
alive and get workable organiZa-
,tion into action. A plan for financ-
ing was explained.
It is planned to bring the cham
Der into regeneration as soon as
possible and to this end a meeting
for organization purposes will be
called soon.
G.. H. Madden told the Rotarians
what had been his experience with
the work of a chamber at NOgales.
On his motion the Rotarians decid-
ed on a committee to petition the
corporation commission for hear
ing asking for free delivery Of ex
press packages in Winslow. G. H.
Madden, Sam Proctor and E. H.
Black were appointed by Vice
President G. p Sampson. The aD-
plication will be filed at once and
a hearing will no doubt be held in
the near future.
Visitors at Wednesdays meeting
were: C. P. Cooley, Paul Geary,
Holbrook, and c. B. Wilson of Flag
staff, all of whom made short ad-
dresses, with golf as the principal
subject.
A. B. Nelson was chairman of
the day and program of music on
violin and piano by Mr.. and Mrs.
Porter Rhoades and Miss Beryl
Hammond was given, while Miss
Hammond also gave an exhibition
of the Charleston.

ELKS OPEN DRIVE
TO SAVE FAMOUS
"OLD IRONSIDE.S"

A final drive to raise funds with

B. P o. Elks.
A. r. Kleindienst, Past Exalted
Ruler of the local organization, is
making tour of WinslOw schools
to interest school children in the
matter The campaign in the pub
lie schools has been conducted for
some time, but until now has never
been inaugurated in Winslow. Prac-
tically all the funds that have been
raised to date have been gathered
through school children, all of
whom know the story of "Old Iron
Sides" which has such a glorious
history in American naval warfare
as to set it entirely aside from the
class of most inanimate objects
that have figured in this country's
struggles in times gone by.
News that the famous old battle
ship would be scrapped some time
ago arounsed a storm of protest
over the whole country, and vari-
Gus benevolent organizations, fol-
lowing the lead of national histori-
cal societies, enlisted in the cause
to save the last of the old "war
ships of the line" from an ignom-
inious end.
The necessary quota has not been
entirely subscribed, and it is in an
effort to put the total over the top
that the Winslow Elks have Joined

"NATIONAL FOREST
WEEK" OBSERVED,
WINSLOW SCHOOLS

Work of government forest rang
ers and the aim of the whole for
estry service are being explained
in public schools of Winslow this
week, which has been set aside as
National Forest Week" The CAM
paign of education is in charge of
Ranger Frank Buster, who is ap-
pearing in all the schools of Wins
low to tell children of the value of
the forests as national assets, and
of the interesting work being car
ried on by the rangers.
The national forests are hailed
as the sunshine recreation ground
of a nation" and the many pleasant
aspects of vacations in the national
florists are being told by Buster.
Hunting and fishing, camera hunt
ing, camping, hiking, and the al
most innumerable points of inter-
est in national forests of the south
west are points accentuated in the
forest rangers talks.
Ranger activities, such as the To-
eating of destructive forest fires,
and the scientific methods of fight
ing them, their danger, and the
methods that may be followed in
fire prevention by all visitors to
national forests, woods sanitation
and administration of grazing laws,
homestead laws and other functions
performed by the forest service, are
a part of the series of talks.
Ranger Buster has a number of
highly interesting pamphlets that
may be obtained by anyone who is
interested in what the forest ser
vice is doing.
