EVANGELIST HAS
LARGE AUDIENCE
FRIDAY EVENING

Speaking to an audience which
iammed it's way down the aisles and
filled the back room of the Baptist
church, Evangelist Car! 3assett last
night talked on "Hells Incubator,
with astounding effect.
AS first incubator of this sort.
he mentioned card playing. "You may
say that there is no more harm in a
game of cards than in game of
finch but there is a difference.
People might gamble with a deck If
finch cards but they gamble with
deck Of regular cards. Statistics
prove that 80 per cent of gamblers
learned to play cards with women
and so per cent learned to play the
game in so-called Christian home.
1t is no better to play cards in =
home than downtown for the same
principle is at stake.
SHOW me the ard-playing, dance
loving but soul winning Christian
there is no such thing. They do not
go together. Women who play cards
on a velvet carpet for a cut-glass
dish are as deserving of arrest as the
professional gambler. Gambling after
all is gambling-in whatever form it
is guised.
"A second incubator of hell is the
dance Folks often excuse dancing
on the grounds that their church
permits it and tthat everyone dances
This may be true in local churches
at various places but do you know
that leading Protestant denominations
and also the Catholic church in it's
conventions has declared against
dancing in no uncertain terms?
Some say that dancing does not
hurt me- but if your influence in
dancing leads to it's hurting someone
else you are the murderer Of a soul.
"a foreigner who watched dancing
in this country once asked-'why do
they not sit down and hug. The
dance leads to moral ruin and it is
stated that three-fourths of fallen
girls attribute their downfall to it.
Bassett then urged everyone to be
an example in the Christian life and
to leave the questionable pleasures
alone.

Local Chamber Urges The
Adjustment OF Arizona
Real Estate Commission

Carrying forward THE campaign adj
vocated recently by the real estate
men of Douglas and favored by the
Douglas chamber of commerce and
mines directors, the latter organiza-
tion is mailing letters to Legislators
and various organizations of import
throughout the state urging the abol
ishment of the state real estate COM
mission.
AT recent meeting of the Douglas
chamber of commerce and mines, it
was stated by certain real estate
firms of the city that the state reai
estate commission was not fulfilling
any vital part in the work of the
state government or rendering any
material benefit to the various real
estate firms who are taxed S25 an
nually to support it.
The chamber directors then voted
to back a petition brought to their
attention by the real estate dealers
Of Douglas calling for the abandon,
ment of this commission Now that
the petition has been presented to
the chamber, that body is communi-
eating with all the state Legislators,
chambers of commerce, clubs and
taxpayers associations in Arizona re-
questing that they give the matter
serious consideration.
The letter being sent out to these
various groups state that the conn
mission under question is q tax drain
on the state and a business drain
ahong those who are forced to con-
tribute to it's support. The local
chambers communication goes on to
state that from the two annual re-
ports inclosed, Of 1924 and 1925 OF
the real estate commissioner, it il
evident that he is taking the place
of the courts which still exists ant
which irc capable of settling ans
complaints which may have beer
submitted to him. The reports o
the past two years record that il
1924 seven formal complaints wer'
heard by the real estate commission
and in 1925 only nine"
1t is hoped that these letters viii
stir other chambers and Influential
organizations in the state to worl
with the local real estate dealers t.

The long-horned steer and the
twisting bronc will divide honors in
Bisbee on Friday and Saturday,
March 20 and 21. The people of Co
chise county, together with many
others, will be treated wit ha western
spectacle that will rival the big
roundups of the northwest.
Let's get the idea of a real rundup
straight What, exactly, is roundup,
anyway? I'll
While it is spoken of as "show,,,
it is not show at all, but an exhl-
bition of skill in riding and roping OF
the best competitive talent that the
western COW plains have produced.
The participants are not paid per-
formers but entrants in thrilling
contest with horse and larlat, Ill
which the contestants receive no re-
ward but the prize money won
through the prowess in the various
crafts of the cowman.
These awards are decided by cap
able and experienced judges, whose
honesty, alertness and efficiency to
Judge must be above question. From
this decision there is no appeal, and
if a contestant fails to best the per-
formance of opponents in the working
of head-hiding bronc or throwing
and tying a calf or a steer his en-
trance fees and his efforts must go
without reward.

Money "on the Side"

J Engaged to check automobile
traffic in st. Paul, Mimi, for a pub
lie commission, Patrick Gallagher
seated himself on his folding camp
stool and removed his hat before
settling down to the days task.
Carefully he placed it on the side
walk beside him and began his count
of the steady stream of motor vehi-
Giles. A passerby paused. He looked
over the sharpened pencils protrud-
ing from Gallagher's coat pocket,
smiled sadly and tipped a quarter
into the hat. Before Gallagher could
recover from his surprise two more
contributions were added to the hat.

AskOv School Column

{ . -
School will be closed Friday,
Feb. IL, President Lincoln's
birthday.
Members of the Askov Calf
Club will note that the monthly
meeting that was, to be held in
the school house Saturday, Feb.
ID, has been postponed till Sat-
urday, Feb. 20, at 200 p. m.
During the last few weeks
visitors at the school have been
almost as scarce as the proven
bal hens teeth. Mrs. Outzen
viewed the work of her children
one day last week. Come again.
Considerable difficulty has
been experienced with the school
water system during the past
week. 1t seems the supply in
the we'll is decreasing; this caused
enough strain that the pump con-
tinued to break. A smaller cyl
inder has now been placed in
the we'll and the situation, it is
hoped,N is relieved temporarily.
AS was announced at the last
movies the school is trying to
secure THE Keeper of the Bees
for Feb. 49,; up to the time this
is written all attempts have been
unsuccessful. The exchange
will not sell this feature unless
five other pictures are taken.
However, if this feature is not
secured, possibly "Drusilla with
the Million will be shown.
The Cloverton-Askov high
school debate on the Child-Labor
question is scheduled to be held
in the D. B. S. hall on Friday,
Feb. IL, Oincoln's birthday at
1:30 p. M, provided the roads
remain sufficiently passable to
permit Cloverton debaters to
come to Askov. The debate is
held during the afternoon so the
visiting team can come and go by
daylight. According to the
| rules of the County Debating
League the home team must pay
the travelling expenses of \ the
visiting team and the judges,
hence an admission of twenty
five cents will be made to cover
expenses. 1t is hoped that
large number will come out to
hear this question debated and
to support the team. In case
the roads become impossible so
the Cloverton debaters cannot
come, a general call to that eff
feet will be sent out before Fri
day noon.
According to fairly authentic
reports that have reached the
school, scarlet fever in mild
form is quite prevalent in the
county. The report states that
several cases are found in Sand
stone, also a few ip Hinckley and
Finlayson; the report also states
that rather strenuous measures
to break the epidemic have been
taken by the health boards and
the schools. 1t would be well
for people of this community to
be on the outlook that the dis
ease is not brought in from the
affected areas. 1t is stated, on
seemingly good authority, that
one school has adopted the plan:
if a child is absent from school
two days in succession the health
officer is sent to investigate; if
the case looks suspicious a ply
sician is sent to diagnosethe case
and the home is put under quar-
antine. Should any cases de-
velop here no doubt similar
measures will be employed.
