By the 1st of April, 1927, it is
hoped to have complete new meth
Cd of disposal Of the towns sew
age. Whether this is to be by cess
pools or by the installation of sys-
tenn of septic tanks will depend on
the results of survey shortly to be
undertaken by Phoenix firm spec
ializing in this form of tank.
The cost will be kept as low as
possible, and it is evident that by
working together and installing the
tanks under one general contract, a
very much better price can be Sc
cured than could possibly be done
by working individually.
Before the town grows any more,
something of this kind must be un-
dertaken.

SANDWICH ISLANDS

LOCAL DISPENSERS

A young eastern engineer who hap
pened into the city on business last
week was amazed at the spread of
the sandwich business.
when I came through your busy
town last month l had a hard time
finding a place to eat; now I can
eat at a different place three times
a day every day I'm here.
tits wonderful! Sandwiches ev-
cry place but the Public Library and
the shoe shop.
How do you do it? Does every
body eat in his own beanery or d.
they dine with each other and thus
keep the money in town?
I'm going to pass the idea alcng

BE A BOOSTER
BY Al c. Francis


Did any of you ever happen in the
| little town of Glendale and see the
amount of business transacted there
| in a single day? No? Well, then
! it would be well worth your time to
stop over there and look around for
awhile, or ask some citizen the pos
sibilities of their city.
There in that little city you will
find the liveliest bunch of boosters
that exist in any part of the state
except Wickenburg.
Now to get down to the subject,
be booster. What for? Wicken-
burg, the one little city with more
future to it than any other town in
Arizona. And it all depends on the
people of this community to make
us the strongest of any part of Ari-
zona.
We have all the material necessary
to make strong bunch of boosterst
We have the climatic conditions
that attract people from all over the
United States, the class of people
that is required to make Wickenburg
a thriving little town
We have our mining industry that
is of interest to the financial world
who are always on the lookout for
investment in some form or other.
But the greatest of all that we
must look forward to is the travel
ing public, who are looking for plea
sure. They are a class of people
that demand accommodations such as
a municipal swimming pool, golf
course, municipal auto camp, with
cabins to accommodate them; in fact
everything that goes to make their
lives pleasure. Just take into con
sideration how many more people
would spend the winter here if they
had the accommodations.
The dude ranches here make one
of our greatest assets; they bring
people here from every part Of the
country; they are furnishing the
people Of the city the life of the
Westerner, while we in return can
prepare place of amusement where
they may have their city life in con
nectiOn. This can be done in one
way only and that is every citizen
OF Wickenburg and the surrounding
community giving their utmost CO.
operation for the things needed most.
We have our theatre here and By
the citizens cooperation we can
have better one.
We are also in need of a real up
to-date pastime park where people
coming here may spend the even
ings, picnicking, dancing, golfing
tennis, and many other amusemente
that people are looking for, and
those are the people that we have to-
cater to.
Going into it little deeper we are
in need of a first class sanatariurl
with plenty of accommodations as
there are many people pass through
here every month looking for a good
healthy spot to stop, but if we
haven't the accommodations it is a
| sure thing that they will not stop
here.
Although I realize and know that
we cannot build a city over night,
if we will all put our shoulders to
the wheel and push, it will not be
long until someone will come along
and see that we need these things
and see our interest in the matter;
then it will only be a matter of time
until we will have all these things.
In short, cooperate with your mer-
chants and business men and in the
end we will have a thriving Ettle
city along the banks of the we'll ad
veTtised Hassayampa River

He said: "The House has already authorized the expenditure and the Senate will take similar action in Il few days" The appropriation is the same as last year which indicates that there will be DO curtailment in railroad activities.

 Smith said: My plan is to make permanent everything of a tempor- ary nature connected with the road. Wooden trestles will be replaced by permanent fills as fast as money can be spared. He expects a big increase in railroad trafiic this year due to the hauling of supplies for new mining companies and the growth of the coal shipments.
