LOTS OF FUN WEDNESDAY
AT ELKS MASS MEETING

Plenty Of pep was manifested at
the mass meeting and dance at Elks
hall, Wednesday evening. Crowds Of
fun-lovlng, fun-making people packed
the hall to capacity. Some wore
"49" costumes. The evening was
one round OF clever stunts. Little
Miss Champ of Tucson, champion
charlestoner and Pee Wee John Ter
by, who holds the same title, from
Houston, Texas, danced. The applause
brought Dad Zerby to his feet in clev-
cr imitation. Jimmie Smith of Gin
derella roof of Los Angeles and Miss
Miller were also nimble exponents of
the charleston. Among other par
ticipants in the charleston circle were
Andy Devine, the sylph-like soda dis
penser, and agile Turk Way, who
skipped the rope to snappy music.
The biggest hit Of all was surprise
feature. All eyes popped when Hem
ry Albers, introduced as the rider of
fiery steers came forth mounted on
a burro. Shy, modest little thing it
was, too modest to move. But the
bewhiskered members lent all hands
and things moved lively until the
burro baked! Then Zerby, keen of
mind, discovered that the wrong fell
low was riding! Figure it out.

MARK A. MOORE TOLD OF
FRENCH FIRE DEPARTMENT

In a letter dated at st. Roman
France, September rs, 1918, about a
month before he was killed in action
in the Argonne, Mark A. Moore, for
whom the local American Legion post
was named, describes the action, or
rather lack of action, of a Frencf
fire department. The letter addressed
to his mother, Mrs. j.. T. Moore, reads
as follows:
Dear Mother:
l received your letter Of July 4th
this morning.
We are having some rainy weather
over here now which is rather un-
comfortable; besides being damp it
interferes with pleasure, which isn't
much to talk about.
There was a fire near this town
last Sunday so we had the pleasure
of seeing the French fire department
in action. They have some speed.
First, the fire chief is notified. He
then notifies the town crier who does
his duty to perfection by going up
and down the street beating a drum.
The firemen then change into their
uniforms. They then assemble at
the fire house, get out the cart or
what you might call it--this takes
about half an hour (the fire was
about two miles out of town.; in the
meantime an American truck loaded
with soldiers have gone to the place
and put ont the fire. The fire de-
partment just leaving town when the
truck came back.
The first excitement that has come
into this town for at least hundred
years.
The pictures that / was going to
send you were poor so will have some
more taken in the near future.
Will close for this time; as ever
your loving son, Mark.

SWEDISH CROWN PRINCE
UNABLE TO STOP HERE

1t was hoped that the crown prince
OF Sweden, who is to be at Grand
Canyon in a few weeks, would visit
Flagstaff and the newly-discoverad
Eden House ruins, as he is an eth
nologist and Egyptologist. An invi-
tation was extended on behalf of DR..
j. Walter Fewkes, ethnologist of
Smithsonian Institution, Washington,
d. c., who is here for the summer.
j. C. Clarke of this city, through
whom the invitation was extended,
this week received the following self
explanatory letter, written on the
royal stationery, embossed with the
royal coat of arms:
New York, June IL, 1926.
Mr.. j. G. Clarke, Custodian,
Wupatki National Monument,
Flagstaff, Ariz.
Dear Sir:
am directed by His Royal High
ness, the Crown Prince of Sweden, to
express his sincere thanks for your
kind letter of the Sd, suggesting that
the trip in the Grand Canyon be ar
ranged so that stop-oYer could be
made at Flagstaff.
However, regret to have to in
form you that the program for the
entire trip is now definitely arranged
and time does not permit any chang
es to be made therein, for which rea-
son His Royal Highness cannot take
advantage of your courteous sugges-
tion.
Again thanking you for your IN
tercst, | beg to remain, my dear sir,
Yours sincerely,
GORSTEN ASBRINTZ.
DR.. Fewkes never has met the
crown prince, though he knew his
grandfather when the latter was
king Of Sweden and received from
him a gold medal in recognition OF
some notable archaeological work.

THESE ANCIENT INDIANS
MADE OWN BURIAL RULES

Finding another burial ground
north of the Elden House ancient pu-
eblo Indian ruins east of Flagstaff
last week knocked into a cooked hat
all theories Of location previously
held by psychologists.
Invariably in explorations previ-
ously made the burial grounds have
been east of the dwelling ruins.
Sometimes, as more ground was
needed, the graves were placed to-
ward the south. so that it was not
infrequent to find graves southeast
and in remote instances almost due
south from the dwellings,.
But in this case the newly-discov-
cred cemetery is directly north of the
ruins and separated from the ceme-
terry found a few weeks ago by a
small ledge of rocks.
1t was related in The Sun last week
that the bodies were placed in the
graves without respect to direction,
instead of with the head toward the
east. In this newly-found cemetery
several instances have been found Of
two skeletons in a single grave,
sometimes with one or more limbs of
one lying across the other.
What was evidently the skeleton
of a chief was exhumed the other day.
There was a pot of yellow paint and
another pot held a handful Of tur-
quoise and paint of another color.
Thus he was all fixed with his vanity
boxes to doll up when he reached the
happy hunting grounds.
In one grave in which there were
two skeletons, one skull had been
split by flint arrow, which was
found inside the skull.
1t is impossible to determine with
certainty which are male and which
are female skeletons. These abor-
ogines all were small boned and
while some skeletons have smaller
bones than others, it cannot be said
for sure that they are of females.
Only one skeleton of a child was
found, it being Of a youngster five or
six years old, though fragments of
the skeletons of other children have
been excayated In the case of chill
dren, however, the bones are not so
hard and disintegrate more easily.
OHC Ol Clle ttuIIlo bildI 10 CslNChc
from the excavations IS that in those
days dentists and false teeth were
ausgespiel. The teeth are white,
clean and perfect. Dentists had not
evoluted along with flu, woman's
suffrage and flapperism.
The skeletons in the newly-discov-
cred burial ground are in a better
state of preservation than in the one
first found. Evidently there is bet
ter drainage and moisture hasn't
stayed in the ground there so long.
All of the better-preserved skele-
tons, especially the skulls, will be
sent to Smithsonian Institution,
Washington, D. c., by Dir. ]. Walter
Fewkes, ethnologist- for that finstitu-
ton, who is overseeing the excava-
tions.
Several hundred unique pieces of
pottery, bodily ornaments, etc, have
been found. Among the latest finds
were rocks with which the ancients
ground their colors and notched
rock with which they rubbed smooth
their arrow-sllafts.

MANY GUESTS, FINE
PROGRAM AT ROTARY

I
There were many visitors and a
fine program Tuesday at Rotary,
Henry Al5ers being chairman and re-
sponsible for the latter.
President f. A. Cotton of Flagstaff
Teachers college announced that 100
more are enrolled for the summer
session than last year, and much
larger percentage than usual for the
fuH 1O-weeks terms. He spoke of the
advantage Flagstaff people may de-
rive from the special voice training
and dancing courses.
President Ed Miller said the club
would pay for special course in the
former for Sid Gassman and Ray
Rabbit and in the latter for Rev. Fr.
Albouy.
Mayor /. B. Koch asked that all
Rotarians as well as everyone else in
town be at the reservoir dedication
tonight, bringing along eats and pre-
pairing to stay from A until z.
Clyde Zerby said Of the 40 cele-
bratlon that among the many new
features will be mining display put
on by the Jerome Elks, the expense
being betrayed by the mining COM
panles. Demonstration will be given
of the old time arastra method.
Albert w. Atwood of the Satur-
day Evening Post expressed his plea
sure at being here again, though for
only brief stay, and said that the
prevailing ignorance all over the
country about what we have here in
the way of resources, climate and
scenery is being gradually overcome
by the favorable propaganda being
spread by those who have visited
here.
Miss Margaret Matson, a Flagstaff
high school pupil, gave three poems
on the American flag. Miss Matson's
readings would have been creditable
to a young woman of twice her
years.
w. B. Downing, Rotarian and head
of the voice department. University
of Kansas, with Miss Mildred Whet-
sci accompanying on the piano, sang
two selections and was encored.
Arthur (Turk) Way did some fan
cy rope skipping that demanded an
encore. Miss Whetsel played for
him.
Joe G. Hillhouse of the Mayhem
studio said he supposed Chairman Al
bers expected him to talk on photog-
raphy, but as the latter was only a
sideline with him, he'd confine him
self to his real line-selling religion.
His talk was witty and interesting,
with plenty. of logic. To successfully
sell religion to men, he said, one must
know his line, know the psychology
of men and have faith in the goods
he sells.
Charles Wilson, superintendent of
schools of Berkeley, Calf, expressed
his delight at being here again this
summer. He said that the increase
in registration at the college is a
wonderful testimonial as well as a fl
nancial advantage to Flagstaff.
President Miller urged Rotarians
to visit Boy Scout camp at Mormon
Lake following the reservoir dedica-
ton tonight.

ing, Lawrence, Kans.; John Johnson,
