ROTARIANS TAUGHT HOW
MEMBERS SHOULD SERVE

Former President |. B. Koch as
chairman of Tuesdays Rotary put
on Rotary educational program par
excellence, contributing lot HIM
self both to the serious and humorous
side. He jabbed up several members
for remissness in connection with
their various duties and for inatten-
ton to important Rotary facts, and
collected enough fines for the Christ
mas fund to make it necessary for
Secretary Art Riordan to make two
trips to the bank with the money.
Grady Gammage, president Flag
staff Teachers college, gave an in
spring address. 1t was announced to
be duplicate of the one he made
not long ago when the Flagstaff
club visited the Prescott club; but as
both talks were from meagre notes
they didn't exactly parallel. If it
hadn't been for the chairman's gavel
the applause that followed Grady's
eloquent talk on the application of
the golden rule to our business and
every day life would have been an
encore. Mr.. Koch voiced the senti-
ments of the bunch when he warmly
congratulated the speaker.
CONSERVATION hit some of the
members hard when Henry Albers
arose and announced his resignation.
Then Earl Slipher replied and it soon
became evident that the ensuing dia-
log was more Rotary education. Af-
ter Henry had given the reasons for
his resignation, Mr.. Slipher showed
him that the reason he didn't get
more good out of the organization was
because he wasn't putting anything
into it. At the finale Henry was so
convinced that he had even forgotten
that he ever intended resigning. "a
lesson was taught in this dialog that
would be wholesome for members of
all civic, fraternal and welfare or
ganizations to take to hearth

Camp Fire Girls Sure
Make Those Pups Hike


With over go Camp Fire girls of
Flagstaff at the first sales dinner of
the tuberculosis seal campaign last
Tuesday night in the Woman's club,
when the sponsors board, the mothers
of the girls and the guardians furn-
ished the food, fine report of SHOPS
was made for the first two days Of
the sales campaign by the six sales
groups.
Litchitaha group in charge of Miss
Louise Wild, through their fine work
of Tuesday, pushed their Hiram and
Elks pup" ahead of the Wana group
and the Rotary and Woman's club
dog, with their advance total of S23
for Tuesday. The college girls fol-
lowed in third place, with Miss Days
group and the training school bring
ing up the rear.
Vivette Wilson, yell leader OF the
evening, "pepped" the girls up with
many yells for other groups, the
guardians, the sponsors and others
interested in the campaign.
The next sales dinner will be next
Tuesday night, when it is hoped the
final total of $500 may be reported
The campaign will close on Deem
Der 13.

resented in this sale: Hiram and
Elks, with headquarters in the post

ORPHEUM STOCK COMP ANY
MADE A BIG HIT TUESDAY

The Orpheum Stock Company made
its first bow to a crowded house last
Tuesday evening when its offering
of a one-act comedy was received
with enthusiasm. Each member of
the cast interpreted his or her part
with skill and the skit as a whole
went over big. If it be permitted to
give special mention of an actor who
didn't have line to say, possibly the
star might have been Carl Dickinson
who played the part of the man on
the aisle in "At the Movies" Carl
was a suburbanite loaded with bun
dies of all kinds including a paper
shopping bag loaded to the tipsy
stage, who had stopped in to kill
time until his train left. Mrs. Ag-
nes Pouthie as Mrs. Grigsby and
Phil Hall as her patient and pertinent
husband were especially good. Miss
Loretto Jake as the city girl and
Miss Fay DuRay as the eager cousin
from the country gave clever and
entertaining character interpreta-
tions. 1t is gratifying to the state
that Miss Costigan's first offering
in this line was such a success that
she will be justified in making it a
regular part of her schedule of en-
tertainment.
Miss Catherine Beckwith and Roy
Wakefield were called back time and
again after their appearances in two
beautiful dance numbers, the Argen-
tine tango and Spanish dance. Miss
Beckwith's costume merits special
mention, as it added appreciably to
the grace and beauty of the number.

man of Flagstaff but who of late
years has been in the stock business

city few days this week He had
been visiting old friends at Holbrook.

to move ON to South America where
he has been offered a position with

America for small chunk of North
America within a year or so.

YOU LOOP BUT DON'T LOOP
THE LOOP ON FLAGSTAFF'S
UNIQUE TOBOGGAN SLIDE

That new toboggan
slide being built under
direction of M. J. Pilking-
ton, head of the winter
sports committee of the
Chamber of Commerce,
will be completed in a few
days, and it will be a whiz,
and something utterly and
uniquely different, so far
as known from any other
toboggan slide ever built.
You slide a quarter of
a mile or SO, and then
walk less than a hundred
feet and slide almost back
to where you started
from. This result is OBJ
tanned by running the
slide down one hill
through a canyon and up
the opposite side, and
the take-off at either
end is given greater pitch
and impetus by raised
platforms.
The platform at the
south end, at Observatory
hill road, is Is feet high
and surmounts a storage
and warming up house.
The toboggan fees will
cover only the cost of
maintaining the slide and
to pay a day and night
watchman during the sea-
son.

painter and artist, is
