When a Ole ColC Hound
Gets Into q Stray Herd

"Uncle Bill' Donelson, the veteran
cattleman who it is said was the first
! man to water his cattle at the rim Of
the Grand Canyon at the time Capt.
John Hance washed his dishes at the
same place when the Colorado river
was bank-full, writes from the 'swest
side of the river" at San Diego that
he beat the flood into that city and
will be marooned there with Jess
Boyce and family until he gets his
chaps dry again. It may be that some
few strangers do not know Jess
Boyce. Well, at first Jess used to
carry an armful of logs around until
he could find scaler before putting
them on the skidWay to be transport
ed to the sawmill. Later Jess fell by
the way-side, morally speaking, and
was inadvertently elected county re-
corder for Coconino county a couple
terms and then was denoted to state
auditor. Then he left Arizona which,
to our mind, completed his utter
downfall. Jess learned his laugh from
the ARIZONA canary" and, like all old
prospectors, we'd like to hear it again.
Undoubtedly "Uncle Bill'' is enjoy
ing himself most amazing ever there
with his chaps off, for he says he
stayed at one hotel dam near a
month" all one week, but went over
to country "Volstead forgot" and
came back with all "lattigo straps"
loose looking for an emery wheel to
whet his spurs on.
"Uncle Bill'' isn't warped any to
speak of in the head, but years to
tryin' to fit your legs to a hoss's ribs
will convex a feller's understanding
Eif you git the two extremes of our
idea Of "Uncle Bill"
Regardless of the fact there is a
report out that he has sold the Grand
Canyon and intends to improve the
Niagara Falls for more and better
Bride Couples, he insists that such
couples may fall where they may or
June-he is not interested in such pit
falls.
While the corral dust Of years has
tinged his scanty locks dull gray,
he has never attempted to dislocate
the OK in his environment as to the
dissemination of ox-olic acid. We
very much dislike to say that we love
the old scoundrel, for fear people gem
orally may get the idea we are as
honest as he is. If we had to write
"UncIe Bills" epitaph on hard old
Malapi rock, it would be brief, but
about like this: "a Bill never un-

EPIPHANY PARISH HOUSE
CAMP PAIGN Be GINS SOON

Epiphany Episcopal church an
nounced this week the opening of a
campaign to secure funds for the
building of a parish house adjoining
the church building at Beaver and
Elm streets. The following letter was
sent out to those connected with, or
interested in the congregation:
"The committee of Epiphany Epis-
copal church has decided that the
pressing need for a parish house
makes it advisable to approach the
members Of the parish, and our many
other friends in Flagstaff, in the near
future, with view to securing funds
and pledges in an amount sufficient
to permit the construction of the
building this summer.
sThe fund now in the bank, plus
what is pledged by the American
Church Building Fund association, is
about $4,000. The additional amount
needed in cash or pledges is $4,000.
'sThe committee voted to send out
this month two letters, one from the
vicar stating the need of the building,
and one from the committee outlining
the financial side of the program. The
social side of a church as power for
good in community is pressingly inn
portant today. Through this means
contacts are established and friend
ships formed that lead directly to the
main object Of our existence, namely,
the promotion Of the knowledge and
love of God, and of His Son Jesus
Christ among all people. Thus the
parish house id the open door that
leads into the church. Especially is
this vital for the oncoming generation
Our opportunity in Flagstaff, with
the Teachers college perpetual chal-
up in a thousand schools throughout
the west, is unique in this state. /
place this first, as it is largely SER
vice for others. AS for ourselves, we
can by this building greatly enlarge
our influence with the boys and girls
of Flagstaff, which has made prom
ising start, but is now checked for
lack of a suitable meeting place.
"Some of the uses to which the
parish house will be devoted are listed
below trust that extended comment
on the results that could flow from
them are not needed.

THIS IS NO BULL
ABOUT THIS BULL

Nobility, in the person of Edna's
Duke, pedigreed seven months old
registered brown Swiss bull calf, is
receiving the admiring attention of
visitors at the Pinewood dairy, north
Of town, under management of Andy
Matson. He is. handsome fellow
whose mien seems to indicate that he
is aware of his worth, which is sum
to be proud of, for he came from q
herd from which another bull calf was
sold for $4,000, though Dukes pur-
chase price was not stated.
Duke arrived Saturday by express
from Hampton, Iowa. The purchase
was made through a brother Of Milt
Powers, DIR. ]. C.. Powers, of Hamp-
ton. DR.. Powers is interested in the
raising Of high class cattle. Dukes
mother belongs to a herd which RE-
Gently made record of an average of
over 1000 pounds of butter a year.
Andy Matson has a model dairy
north of town. Most of the cows are
Jerseys, and Duke finds himself in a
spot worthy his high ancestry.

Clean Streets
For q Change


Flagstaff business men and the resi-
dents generally who rotice what is
going on around them are comment
ing fayorably on the way the streets
are being kept clean this winter, espe-
cially in the downtown section, where
the paving admits more efficient
work in that direction THAI is possible
on unsurfaced streets.
Snow during the big storm was
quickly moved from intersections and
trenches were kept open in the drifts
on the shady side of the streets, so
that instead Of banks Of ice for weeks
following the storm, as usual in win
ters past, in few days all the snow
had gone and there was no ice at all.
And there seems to be a feeling
with the city council that mud and
dirt on the paving is unsightly and
perhaps unsanitary. Anyway men
with trucks carefully scraped it up and
hauled It away. Instead of getting
your feet all muddy crossing paved
streets. this winter you can sit down
on the pavement without much fish
erman's luck.
The wheeled street sweeper is be-
inq put into condition and soon will
be in regular use on the pavement.

HIGH WATER MAROONS
FAMILY AT OAK CREEK

The prolonged storm has played
havoc In Oak Greek, according to At
torney Frank M. Gold who last week
end drove ITO miles to reach his ranch
above the falls, which under normal
conditions, is but % miles from Flag
staff. The creek is so high that the
Carl Mayhew family at Oak Greek
lodge is isolated entirely, as they can
not cross the creek. C. C. Compton,
who accompanied Mr. Mayhem down
some weeks ago to prune the orchard,
is also in captivity. There is a foot
bridge leading across the creek to the
Gold place which can be negotiated IN
the morning before the suns warmth
brings the water too high. There are
many landslides, some of considerable
proportions, which will call for lot
of work as soon as the weather set
ties.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gold and son Lawrence
made the trip to take Mrs. Colds
father, NJ. J. Wells, down for the
change. They went by way of Pres
cott on Saturday ard stayed that night
at Sedona with Mr.. and Mrs. L. e..
Hart who took them up to Banjo Bill
springs opposite their ranch the next
morning in a truck 1t is very beau
tiful at Sedona now, everything is
green and the fruit trees are in bloom.
There were charming waterfalls from
the canyon rims all along the way up
the canyon. Mr.. Hart is busy as pos
sible making extensive improve
ments on his ranch. He is building a
new store at Sedona and expects to
have several cottages ready by the
time the tourist season is on.

FIRE AND HIGH WINDS
IlPERL LOCAL HOTEL

Fire of unknown origin damaged
the rear Of the Hotel Weatherford,
Flagstaff, late last Thursday night,
causing an approximate damage of
$1,000.
Famed by high wind, the fire
which had started in small room,
broke through a window and set fire
to the balcony, which is on the same
floor level Once the balcony had
fired, the flames were under forced
draft from the wind and in just few
seconds were leaping high into the
air. The fire alarm was turned in
by a resident living on the opposite
side of the street at 11:45 pm. and
within a minute, according to wit
,nesses, water was being played on
the flames from two lines of hose.
1t took about Is minutes to get the
fire under control and the fact that
it had such good start and the wind
blowing with about 30-mile velocity
made the work of the fire department
seem marvellous.
No personal property was lost by
any OF the guests, as the fire was
kept from getting into the bedrooms.
The greatest damage to the building
was caused by smoke and water.
The material damage was the gut
ting Of one room and the destruction
pf the roof of the balcony.
This is the first fire that the Hotel
Weatherford has had in 35 years,
according to J. w. Weatherford, owner
Df the property The fire in no way
hindered operations. said the manage
ment.

FLAGSTAFF FIRE ladies
EFFICIENT BRAINY BUNCH

Few Flagstaff people realize
though more are beginning to-that
Flagstaff's volunteer fire department
is the real thing.
Flagstaff owes much to tfe depart
ment for the clever and unselfish
work the boys have done during the
last several years. Every few weeks
another instance of their ability and
devotion to duty is given
Many who watched the fire and the
firemen's work at the Hotel Weather
ford last Thursday midnight have
commented on the machine like pre-
cision with which the boys worked and
the real head work shown.
Not many spectators who saw the
falmes shooting 10 feet up from the
third floor rear had any idea the blaze
could be put out before immense dam
age had been done, both by fire and
water. The wind was blowing strong
ly and dense smoke prevented the men
getting the exact location Of the blaze
and getting to it.
They used their heads. Ernest
Hogan crawled along the floor be-
meath the smoke and located the
source of the blaze. Guy Sykes
climbed the cornice to the roof and
opened the trap there, letting the
smoke out SO the men could get into
the Railways. Then, instead Of using
the big hose lines, smaller one was
brought in and in few minutes the
blaze was out. Without that fast
headwork and action the hotel might
have been burned. If the big hose
lines had been pulled in great damage
would have been done the furnishings,
probably more damage by water than
fire.
AS it was the damage was confined
to the toilets at the rear on a couple
of the floors. In the halls and rooms
even the carpets were dry.
Not long ago when someone set Jim
McCann's house on fire, the boys had
the blaze out before Jim, who was
asleep inside, woke up. A church fire
rccently was out almost before it knew
it was a fire.
The firemen get the fnunificent sum
of So each per fire. But they put in
many hours on fire business besides
fighting fires. For instance, they
meet once each week and, taking one
or more buildings in town under dis
cussion, figure out just how they
would fight fire breaking out there.
The Hotel Weatherford was thus dis
cussed a few months ago.
The members Of the volunteer de-
partment are: 3. J. Hogan, chief;
Claude Phelan, captain; Guy Sykes,
lieutenant; Jack Irish, truck driver;
Tom Long, John Mitchell, Lawrence
Kinney, Jess Gaddis, Fred Langstpn,
Carl Dickinson, Hayes Weidner and

TRY AGAIN TO FIND HEAVENLY Y VISITOR
CORPORATION FORMED TO
DRILL FOR TEN MILLION
TON METEOR AT CRATER

G. M. Colvocoresses, one of Ari-
zona's most prominent mining men
and metallurgical experts, was in
Flagstaff Friday in interest," of the
Meteor Crater Exploration company,
recently incorporated to exploit Me-
teor mountain, located six miles south
of Sunshine. Because of his deep in
terest in the subject of metallurgy, of
which he has made life's study, Mr..
Colvocoresses has come under the
spell of Meteor crater and has joined
with ID. M. Barringer of Philadelphia
to try to solve the problem that has
been pondered over by scientists for
the past 80 years or more.
The new corporation organized by
Mr. Colvocoresses and Mr.. Barringer
purpose to lease for 80 years from
the Standard Iron company, owned
by D. NJ. Barringer and his associates,
the Meteor Crater property. This lat
ter company drilled 20 holes in the
center of the crater on the theory that
the meteorite had fallen vertically, but
failed to find any large masses of
meteoric material Recently it has
been fairly definitely decided that the
mass approached the earth at an angle
of about As degrees and it is from
this knowledge that the Meteor Crater
Exploration and Mining company will
work
In 1922 the United States Smelling,
Refining and Mining Exploration
company put down test hole on the
south rim of the crater and drilled to
a depth of 1876 feet, where they lost
their tools and were forced to quit
work. In the lower levels of this hole
the drill encountered series of hard
boulders composed of about so per
cent iron oxide, magnetic and carry
ing nickel The new company is
building it's hopes largely on the find
ings in this test hole.
Meteor Crater is well known to resi-
dents in this section of the state and
is considered strong drawing fea-
ture for tourists. It's history is very
interesting and many theories have
been advanced as to its origin. 1t is
located six miles south Of Sunshine
Station on the main line Of the Santa
Fe railroad, between Winslow and this
city Careful studies have been made
Of the crater. The size of the main
meteoric mass or cluster-if one ex-
lists cannot be stated, but it has been
estimated by leading physicists to be
