DR.. Manning Says Our
Mix is Not Too Good

There have only been three cases OF
contagious disease in Flagstaff for
the first part of May and all these
are light cases of measles, according
to DIR. Felix Manning, county health
officer. Never has the general health
of Flagstaff been so good, the doctor
told city council Monday night.
In speaking of the milk supply of
the city, DIR. Manning said that a
great deal could be done to improve it.
He said that nearly all of the milk is
in class 3D." This means that the
city's milk supply is quite long way
removed from the first class, which is
"a" DR.. Manning urged the adop-
tion by council of the unified milk
ordinance, which would compel dairy
men to grade their milk and mark it
with the grade. The council turned
the matter over to Mayor |. B. Koch
to confer with DR.. Manning and see
what action could be taken on the
matter so as to safeguard those who
use milk

Cousin-in-L
To Uncle's Sister?

Bowie, Ariz.-J. N. White of this
city is now his daughters uncle by
marriage to his daughter, and father
in-law to his brother-in-law, c. VIII
son of Texas, who married Mr..
Whites daughter, Lucille, in Tucson
last week. Mr.. Wilson's sister, who
Is now Mr.. Whites second wife, and
step-mother to Lucille, is mother-in-
law to her brother, and the daughter,
Lucille. is the sister-in-law of her
step-mother. Consequently, Mr.. VIII
son, who is now the son-in-law OF his
brother-in-law, is also an uncle by
marriage to his wife.
The affair, which is not quite as
complicated as it sounds, is easily
explained. Mr.. Whites second wife
IS Mr.. Wilson's sister, and Wilson
married Mr.. Whites daughter by his
first wife.
The young couple were married in
Tucson last week, surprising their
many friends in Tucson and Bowie, as
the affair was kept secret until the
ceremony.

COUNCIL TAKES ACTION
TO CONTROL PLAYING OF
TRAVELLING SHOWS HERE

Fewer tent shows and carnivals to
lure away the money of Flagstaff
people viii operate in this commun-
ity following the adoption of a reso-
luton by city council at it's regular
meeting Monday night. With no
thought in mind of controlling the
pleasures and whims Of the residents
of Flagstaff, the council passed the
resolution, however, firmly believing
by the city clerk for such tent show
and carnivals have thrust themselves
upon the city during the past month
or so.
The resolution as adopted provides
that no tent show or carnival shall
play within the fire limits of the city
and that before any license is issued
by the city clerk for such tent shows
or carnival it first must be acted upon
by council If after investigation
council finds those desiring license
are worthy of the patronage OF the
citizens of Flagstaff they will be
granted license and in case Of re-
verse decision the permit will be re-
fused.
IN keeping with the new resolution
the council passed favorably on the
application of the Roberts, Sisters
stockscompany for license TO play II
Flagstaff for three days commencing
Monday. The application of the com.
pany asked for a six-day permit but
this was cut to three by council.

back. Cups, plates, and all sorts OF

COLLEGE ENTERTAINERS

BENEFIT OF RED CROSS

Flagstaff Teachers College Glee
club and entertainers will give one Of
their high class entertainments at
the college, Friday evening, May 20.
The larger part of the receipts will
be donated to Flagstaff Red Cross
fund for the flood sufferers. Flag
staff has not yet reached the allot-
ment for flood relief. The need for
money is increasing every day. 1t is
impossible for us to realize the
magnitude of the damage caused and
the great number of people left destl-
tute, homeless and hungry.
A large number of trained Red
Cross workers, doctors and nurses
will be in active work there for many
months and their salaries are all paid
from the general fund that has been
raised by membership drives. Every
cent that is now raised goes directly
for food, clothing, shelter and later
for building homes and getting them
started on their farms, in new homes
and ready to make living for them
selves.
The price for tickets at the college
will be SO and rs cents.
Give them a capacity house, enjoy
a splendid program and contribute to
a most worthy cause.

tion in getting the nex9 annual con

Yuma and Douglas were contenders
though not partisan, and Flagstaff
it developed, was the choice Of large
number of the delegates.
The annual grand lodge meeting of
this order draws large attendance
and there is something doing every
moment during the days of the con-
vention.
The fast increasing list Of conven-
tions scheduled for Flagstaff means
something more than the immediate
business the delegates give the busi-
ness places here; it means more
knowledge among people elsewhere
how delightful our summer climate is
and the multitude of marvellous scenic
attractions we have.

Fourth Celebration

Flagstaff Elks decided Tuesday
night that they would not sponsor a
Fourth of July celebration this sum-

Walter Carlson. The Elks feel pretty
proud of the two past '49 shows and
feel that some other organization
should have the honor of this years
celebration if it wishes. However,
they plan to take charge in 1929, if
allowed, when they will stage the big
gest and best celebration Flagstaff
has ever seen. This year their energies
will be concentrated upon the Labor
day program which will be the best
yet. It is rumored that another Flag
staff organization desires to put on
the Fourth of July show and that, as
has been the fashion the past two
years, unshaven '49ers will be with US
again. Doubtless the Elks too, from
force of habit will refrain from shaw

Feeding Underweight
Children At Williams

r. G. Stevenson, superintendent OF
Williams schools, in Flagstaff Mon
day, said that an interesting expert
ment is being carried out there for
the first time, he believes, IN TINS
state.
There are several pupils who are
underweight, and few weeks ago
it was decided to prepare special
lunches for them in the domestic
science department. The children's &
uarents were notified and informed
that the children would be given
special lunches for 80 cents q child
per week.
The parents took to the idea read
ilv. In one instance pupil gained
four pounds in a month due to the
special luncheons, and in practically
everv case the children show crafty
ing gain in weight.
The school nurse takes the children
IN to luncheon, then to the gym
nasiun, where they lie down for Il
minutes.
Mr.. Stevenson says though the
lunches are ample and well balanced
the school is not losing anything on
the low charge made.

High School TO Haze
Fashion ShOlD And
Manual Arts Exhibit

On this coming Wednesday, May 18
at eight o'clock in the evening, the
sewing classes of the high school home
economics department will give to the
public a representation Of their work
in the form of fashion show. Dur
ing this same evening there will in
the high school auditorium be dis
play of work done by the boys in the
manual training department.
The fashion show, which is to take
the place of the regular exhibit of
work done by the home economics de-
partment during the year, is the first
attempt of the department to display
garments made by the girls on the
girls who have made them. 1t prom
ises to be both interesting and worth
while. The girls, under the super
vision of Miss Culver, the home
economics teacher, have, been work.
ing diligently to make the exhibit a
success, and it is hoped that all in
terested will avail themselves of this
opportunity to see the work.
The fashion show will consist of a
short sketch in which Madame Garon,
keeper of girls outfitting shop, will
call forth her models to display
dresses for the approval of various
friends and customers. All dresses
displayed will be those made by the
girls themselves in their sewing
classes. The groups will consist of
simple house dresses, made-over
dresses, school dresses, cotton and silk
afternoon dresses and evening dresses.
The characters in the little playlet
will be taken by: Irby Mae Richard
son, Mildred Matson, June Cooper,
Josephine Wilson, Minnie Hilkins,
Eleanor Brown, Elna Smith and sew
eral others.
Another interesting feature of the
program will be a display of work
done in the manual training depart
ment under supervision of Mr.. Pres
ton. The boys have made much splen-
did progress in their work this year
as the exhibit of furniture, woodwork
and brass work will prove to you.
Both the fashion show and exhibit
will be given in the high school audi
torium. A cordial invitation is ex-
tended to all interested.
