The use of lilies at Easter is one
of great antiquity as well as one
of great beauty. The lily, the EN-
blem of purity and grace, is known
as the Virgins flower, and has been
associated with the resurrection
since the Fifth century
Another very old, as well as uni

only two days out of the four because
of the heavy snowfall. On the 28tn,
Nagiller's trained bloodhound, "Jack, +"
son of "Old Red" the most famous
lion hunting dog of northern Arizona
in earlier days, tracked and followed
a lion for about five miles, then got
him up a tree. Ratcliffe shot the
beast, and the two started to return
to camp with it. Upon their return
trip. the dog tracked another. Leav-
ing the dog to tree the animal, the
men took the first lion into camp and
went back where the dog had finally
treed the second lion, which Nagiller
shot. One measured nine and one
half feet, and the other eight ard
one-half feet from tip to tip. The
scene of the hunt was in the Hobble
Tank mountains, fifteen miles north
OF Williams. Mr.. Ratcliffe is having
the larger animal stuffed, and it will
