GRAND CANYON
IS YEAR-ROUND
TOURIST HAVEN
Enchanted Region Is Rich in
Amazing Scenes of An
Cient History.

Grand Canyon National Park is
located in northern Arizona. Not
only is it one of the scenic marvels
of the world; it is a convenient
rendezvous for the wonderland of
the southwest, that enchanted re-
gion which lies in the very heart of
Americas Oldest happenings.
Within days ride by auto or
saddle are the reservations of the
Hopis, the Supais, and the Nava-
jos. In that magic circle are petri-
fed forests and painted deserts,
relics of prehistoric cliff and cave
jewellers, snow-tipped mountains,
and depths of canyons profound.
Go farther af1eld and there is
bridge of the rainbow and a cnaSm
of the dead. Hands point backward
along mysterious trail that
energies from nowhere. Naked moons
tan you. Nights of a million stars
soothe you, Sunsets flood the f1rma-
ment in blaze of fire, and sunrises
come as suddenly as flash of light.
Accessible Year Around
Off the beaten path anything may
happen. You see Indians on their
ponies, racing home. You glimpse a
colitary campfire. You hear the far
away howl of a wolf and the nearer
yelp of a coyote. A sandstone en-
CULTS you for a moment. A noisy lit
tie shower lays the dust. For you
yucca and cactus open their timid
flowers. 1t is all so new and SO old,
so unlike the ordinary ways.
The Grand Canyon may be visited
any day in the year. When other
mountain resorts are frozen up, the
titan of chasrns is easily accessible.
During the winter snow falls in the
pine forests along the rim, and the
upper sections of the trails to the
river are covered with white
blanket.
Nevertheless, one may venture
muleback down any of the principal
trails, confident that spring soon
will begin to peek out tinidly and
early summer appear just around
the turn.
For, going down, the climate
changes perceptibly every few hun
dred feet, so that when on the rim
a nipping frost is in the air there
are fragile desert flowers blooming
along the river gulches.
Cool in Summer
The weather in July or August is
not torrid, except at the very bot
tom of the giant cleft. Up on top
the rim is almost a mile and a half
above sea level. Maximum shade
temperature on rim seldom exceeds
IS degrees, though it may be f1f-
teen degrees or so warmer far down
below.
Mornings, evenings and nights
are cool and dry. The difference of
nearly a mile in altitude between
the Colorado river and canyon rim
is like travelling hundreds Of miles
north or south on the level.
Also high altitude means cool
while southerly latitude
means warm winters as rule
which explains why the Grand
Canyon is an ideal resort the year
round. This part of Arizona is
land of sunshine, and the wind We
locity is under the average.
Easy drives, a mile and half up
in the sky, soothe tired brain and
nerves. More vigorous is the horse
back exercise, taken through park
like glades and reaches of Tusayan
forest

Begin on ProverbiaI Nickel,
Gain Success Without
Using Credit.

CHICAGO, May 25.-UpSetting
~ the masculine tradition that
credit is the foundation Of business
success, five Chicago women. who
adopted the "pay-as-you-go" plan,
have created businesses with assets
of millions.
Without speculation or extensive
credit manipulations, these women
demonstrated that a million-dollar
business can be started with nickel
plus feminine ingenuity and de-
termination.
Here are their stories;
Confronted with the problem of
supported herself, her 15-year- old
daughter and her seriously i'll huS-
band, Mrs. Ora Snyder decided to
make candy for profit. She had al
ways liked to make candy, having
made it since she was years old.
Stars With Nickel
With 5 cents worth of sugar and
the white of an egg, she started.
Her product sold. She realized $4.15
the first week. She literally made
candy day and night. She scorned
credit.
Her principles of craftsmanship
we're Simple--she made good candy
and sold it at fair price; she kept
her old customers and through them
gained new ones. Now Mrs. Snyder
owns a chain of ten candy stores
about Chicago.
Some forty-two years ago, Mrs.
Minna Schmidt stepped from the
steerage cabin of a German liner
and took a job at SO a week with
a Chicago family.
Makes Own Costumes
But Mrs. Schmidt was ambitious.
She opened a studio given over to
instruction in physical training,
dancing and dramatic art. Her
young charges wanted to give plays
and recitals. She had not money
to buy costumes, so she made them
herself.
The costume maker was accurate
and painstaking. Soon her fame
spread and she became an author
ity. Now she operates one of the
most complete costume houses in
the west. Her collection Of minia-
ture wax models representing ia
nous characters clad in authentic
garments of their times is widely
known. She took law degree re-
Gently and has won a reputation as
a lecturer and scholar.
Another Chicago woman built up
her bank roll from a few dollars
to substantial sum by dispensing
food. Miss Harriet E. Dutton was
so years of age before she went into
the cafeteria business. She had pre-
viously kept a boarding house and
saved but little money. And yet,
without borrowing a nickel, she sue
ceeded in creating prosperous
business with capital that continues
to expand yearly.
