Heavy rains were reported from
manv points in Arizona yesterday
and last evening the downpour reach
ed Douglas Early in the evening
a very heavy rain fell throughout
this district. A proof that rain
means almost nothing in Douglas
because the populace can depend up
on dry day Immediately after q
shower, was that the crowds at
tending the early show at the Grand
theatre last evening made the trip
down town in binding storm to
pack the theatre until the SRO signs
were hung out.
Indications that the rain extended
further east were many. That the
rain was heavy in the Salt River
valley was indicated by wire re-
ports to the Dispatch. The day
Monday, was clear until late in the
afternoon and almost hot with q
bright sun finally obscured near set
ting by heavy black clouds fringed
by white.
There was slight sprinkle just
at dusk and shortly after six o'lock
the rain set in in earnest. By nine
o'clock the sky was clearing again,
the rain had ceased and the night
gave promise of clearing weather
after giving Douglas q wetting which
was appreciated by cattlemen and
farmers and enjoyed by everyone.

asking that the balance CT the total
be ready for the chapter by the, last

charitable needs in Douglas sc that

who will now contribute may be
assured that. they ere helping q home
cause and that their cash will largely
be used to aid in taking care OF
Douglas needs and what small por-
ton goes to the state organization
will be used in Arizona Red Cross
work.
The articles which are now being
sought in clothing and bedding will
/ be gathered tomorrow by the Boy
! Scouts and owners OF automobiles
who are contributing their services
to this work. Calling telephone 499
and advising OF the address where
