1HE fine showing OF Jose Juraoo,

open, demonstrating that golf
ers of championship caliber

United States and Great Britain. points
to the fact that in the future interna-
tional links competition will more and
more enlist widely varying nationaii-
ties.
Tennis, through the Davis Cup
matches. is truly first of international
sports. Golf, while it is played all over
the face of the globe, has no similar
status.
The time is about ripe for the ar
rangement Of a golf fixture approx
mating the Davis Cup matches. Such
an event would be able to draw teams
right now from the United States,
Great Britain France, Canada and
Australia. Interest among amateurs
would be revived, something to be de-
sired, since the Walker Cup matches
between the United States and Great
Britain have become too one-sided, due
to the fact that our amateurs have
made wonderful progress. while those
of Great Britain appear to have stood
still. or even refrigerated.
Of course the United States would

RUNDELL TAKES
ANOTHER TRACT
In The VALLEY

M Otto Rundell, of Elfrida, has
faith in the Arizona land. He proves
that by his action About II years
ago he filed ON his first claim. He
made title to that and continued to
develop it. Yesterday he filed on an
additional 100 acres, making out the
papers before H. G. Buemler, the
local U. S. commissioner. He has
been for some years one OF the largest
truck farmers in this part of the
county and he says he has realized
quite favorable results.

MASONS OF MEXICO OFFICIALLY
VISITED BY GRAND MASTER AT
SPECIAL SESSION in DOUGLAS

impressed by the courteSies and
friendship extended to me, as grand
master OF the grand lodge of the
Pacific, by all brother Mascns. You
will please tell all Masons Of Arizona
that in my present visit to Douglas
I was made to feel so intensely
satisfied that I consider it one OF
the happiest days of my life and
one which I will forever remember.
1.-THE meeting held Saturday night
(Feb. I'D between Masons from
Arizona and the Pacific of Mexico
is positive proof OF the strength OF
Masonry.
Masonry, or rather fraternal love
must guide the human race in order
that it may accomplish that with
which the Great Architect of the
Universe has charged it, and happy
ana proud should be the families
and nations who can count among
their members the largest number
of Masons.
eff day comes when legislative
bodies that represent and govern us
hold meetings such as the MasonS
from Arizona and those OF the Pacific
of Mexico held Saturday night, rep
resenting the union of two great
countries of the American continent
in an atmosphere of brotherly love
then the solution OF all problems
between nations will be found by q
true understanding brought ABOUT by
reason and justice.
"In conclusion 1 wish to express
my sincere appreciation to Brother
G.. Mcmillan, grand master OF the
grand lodge of Arizona; Brother VIM.
Van Winkle worshipful master, and
the other offices OF Mount Moriah
lodge No. 10, and to all brother
Masons of Arizona in general"

IN the past the custom of writer's
has been to delve deep in theiT
quest for the origin OF st. Valentine
day. The only authentic information
SO far CLEANED, is the fact that the
day falls on Feb. IA, the natal day
of this good saint. II st, Valentine
ever had any connection with the
expression of sentiment between
sweethearts OH this day. there is little
doubt that Dan Cupid has slipped
in and purloined his thunder.
The weapons used by the God OF
Love were cardboard hearts and
efflssionS OF lace paper, carrying
verses of sentimental poetry. Also
darts fired from bis trusty bow
piercing some fatal spot in the anat-
onny OF his victim. With the materials
with which Dan Cupid had to work
we will have to admit he did a good
job III at least kept alive the
custom of lovers communicating to
each other the hearts sentiment on
Feb IA. ss.s
Like Christmas, st. Valentines day
combines Ia Its TRAD ditlorS queer
mixture OF Christian and pagan ele..
ments. It derives its name from an
early Christian martyr two OF them
say some historians but Its observ-
ance comes straight from the ancient
Romans, who not only were not
Christians but who showed what they
thought of Christianity by their play
full habit OF feeding large numbers
of that religious sect to the lions.
The first ST. Valentine was one
x.f +I,ncn Cl1V.;cfioyN Y,fxy1~cs oIflo01iul1
his martyrdom was not via the lion
route. During the reign Of the
Emperor ClaudiuS a certain Bishop
Valentinus was brought before the
emperor and the high priest, Cal
pnurnius, charged with a series of
high crimes against the Roman gods.
When faced by his accusers, the
bishop started to make the plea for
the Christian cause, but he was
silenced and hurried away to Asturius
noted as the most severe Of Roman
judges and one who had particular
hatred to Christians, to be tried and
sentenced.
Meanwhile the emperor sent a
secret message to ASturius command
ing him to use every means possible
to win Valentinus back to the native
gods and to try to save his life.
When the bishop. was questioned by
Asturius and found stCs be firm sins
his adherence to the new religion,
he was called upon to restore the
sight of the blind daughter OF
Asturius. Then, SC the legend runs,
her sight was restored and Asturius
was so impressed that he and all
of his household were baptized into
the Christian faith by Valentinus.
When the emperor heard Of this he
was so furious that he Immediately
ordered Asturius and all of his FAM
lily imprisoned and the Christian
bishop to be beaten in public and
then beheaded.

Bringing together something more
than 200 who had "stood in the
east" with grand masters of two
jurisdictions as honor guests, a meet
ing of the Masonic fraternity was
held last Saturday night in Mt
Moriah Masonic lodge rooms in this
city unprecedented in the history Of
Douglas if not in the history OF the
entire southwest. 1t was a meeting
held under a special dispensation OF
Grand Master F. F. Dworak OF the
grand lodge of the Pacific of
Mexico. The special dispensaticn per-
nitted Pro-Patria lodge of Aqua
Prieta to cross the international
boundary and conduct its ceremonies
in the lodge room of Mt. Moriah lodge
in Douglas on the occasion of the
official visit OF Pro-Patria lodges
grand master.
The plans for the meeting stirred
an interest among the members OF
the Masonic fraternity as few lodge
programs have done in this part OF
the country 1t resulted in bringing
out an exceptionally good attendance
from both sides OF the boundary with
the result that it was one OF the
largest lodge meetings ever gathered
here. Invitations had been sent to
the Masonic bodies in Bisbee, Tucson,
Tombstone, Ft. Huachuca, Stafford
and other points in addition to an
invitation to Grand Master Mcmillan
and his lodge at Jerome and every
one of the places invited was rep
resented.
There was work staged in the third
or master Mason degree by the Pro-
Patria lodge, the official personnel
of the degree staff being, A. F.
Gomez, master; H. G. Rochim, senior
warden; Leo Lubbert, junior warden;
A. Reyes, secretary, and A. Sotura,
treasurer.
Following the degree work there
was a social hour during which there
were brief addresses by several OF the
officers including principal addresses
by Grand Master DWoraK and Grand
Master Mcmillan Among other

PACKARD BUYS
POLLED BULLS
AT IOWA SALE

Business through the central portion
of the United States is reasonably
good and the people seem prosperous,
according to =. A. Packard president
CT the First National Bank, who has
returned to his home here after sew
eral days passed in that section. He
says there seems TO be a considerable
prosperity; that the farmers sold their
corn crop to good advantage and the
wheat from such states Us Kansas
brought lot Of money into the
pockets of the people so that the buy
ing power Is good and the cities and
towns are being stimulated in their
trade activities from those sources
Mr.. Packard visited at Des Moines,
Kansas City, st. Louis and other
points, making visits in the states of
Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and
Kansas. In Des Moines he attended
an exhibifio-7 ~ Polled Hereford cattle

fact, just now is ahead of the supply.
That means still higher prices for
bulls.
"As an indication of the interest be-
ing taken by stockmen in the polled
Hereford, the bulls sold at Des Moines
at this exhibition averaged. for the lot,
$405 The top price was $1250 How
ever, with cattle prices on the live
stock market pe9ged where they are,
those are not out of line as the prices
for quality registered animals, such as
these were. She stock is also in good
demand I bought some bulls. There
will be shipment here maybe to-
morrow "wednesday but within day
or two I have four and Charles
Whitehead is bringing one, all COM
ing together We have some outstand
ing animals but did not get the top
price bull One of my bulls is long
two year old that weighs 1900 and a
beauty. They are not for sale but
were bought purely for improvement
of my own herd"
Mr.. Packard says that by using u
polled bull in his breeding herds it
will usually mean from SO to 10 per
cent polled calves thereby reducing the
expense of dehorning, which is no
small item. After few years, by use
of polled breeding sires and elininat-
ing the heifers that have horns from
time to time, it will reduce the cattle
with horns to the minimum
Travelling in that section Mr. Pack
ard visited with bankers in Kansas
City and confirmed what he had sus-
pected as he travelled along the way
in the railway train. The wheat fields
Of Kansas are just now in a bad way.
They are afflicted by fly and also Dy
dry weather. There was lack of
moisture last fall and that lack has
not been supplied yet. The bankers
are worried over the outlook, but there
was hopeful sign just as Mr. Packard
was leaving Kansas City, Word had
been received telling of rain to the
extent of more than half an inch
which it was believed would bring
about a considerable improvement in

UNITED EFFORT
TO KEEP CROWD
COMING ALONG

There is nothing being omitted by
the chamber of commerce and the
hotels of Douglas to get information
to the people travelling through
Arizona that the loss of one hotel
has caused no one to sleep in the
street in Douglas. The word is being
broadcasted in every possible way
that Douglas is going ahead with it's
every day business matters, welcom-
ing the visitor, seeing that he is
well and comfortably cared for and
sending him on his journey with a
reminder that he will be welcome
when he passes this way again. There
is positive refutation in the word
that is being sent out OF the rlInor
that some had been busy : en Rugh
to start which limited that Douglas
was @ one hotel town. There is being
found plenty OF accommodation fer
all who come this way and they
have been coming in punches for
the last four days.
The chamber of commerce is busy
getting its new list ) of hotel and
roonling house conveniences ready for
use to help in the present situation,
its former list having been destroyed
in the GadSden fire. The Palomar
and other hotels have also arranged
personal lists to use as ready refer
ence and they also have additional
lists of rooms in private homes where
guests may have comfortable lodging
on short notice. The hotels are work
ing in perfect harmony and as fast
as one fills its rooms, its hotel
friends are first cared for and then
when all hotels are filled, the room
ing house list comes into play. Ii
| that by any chance is exhausted,
there is still the private residence
list and the hotels are working with
them quite pleasantly.
It is the intention of the chamber
of commerce when it gets its list
ready to use it on exactly the line
being followed by the hotels. That
is to say, all hotels and rooming
houses will be first given the call
with private residence rooms follow
ing in order. as the chamber recog-
niZeS the fact that the memberships
are from business sources and for
that reason it will see that the
business houses come first. Some OF
the hotels and rooming houses OBJ :
tanned the idea few days. ago that
the chamber intended to run a room
ing house list and there WAS some
criticism but Wf1en it was understood
that the purpose of securing the list
was merely to help handle crowds
in case OF conventions and to be
helpful in directing people in the
every day business to the places
where rooms might be handily OBJ
tanned, the criticism quickly vanished.
Business people generally are lend
ing whatever aid they can in seeing
that visitors find good quarters, of
which there is an abundance. There
is now on foot a plan to broadcast
several hundred posters and hand
bills on the main highway east and
west at hotels, chambers of commerce
and restaurants advising the traveller
to come right ahead to Douglas where
a cordial welcome awaits him.
