Flood Control At
Globe Underway

A soil and water conservation and
flood control project at Globe, in
volvfng s73,244 of federal. funds
has been approved by Works Pro-
gress Administration officials in
Washington, State w. P. A. officials
said this week.
This work that Is to be done In
the various washes running through
the City of Globe and along Pinal
Creek includes stream bank protec-
ton, rock headwalls and rock foot
walls with reinforced concrete
decking.
All of this work will be unde..

course through the city and also to
do. work at the heads of these varj-
GUS channels to control the future
conditions.

to complete and will give employ.
ment to 102 persons. These persons
The Coolidge examiner., 1936-12-03

will be taken from the public re-
lief rolls. The City of Globe, the
sponsor of the project, has contri-
buted $12,440 all of which will go
for the purchase of materials, sup
plies and other direct costs.
The City Of Globe is built in the
foothills of several different noun
tain ranges, with the result that
all of the flood waters flow directly
through the center of the city.
Over the past several years due to
the failure to provide for adequate
erosion control and to the fact that
the vegetation is rapidly disapper-
ing because of this lack of erosic!l
control, flood waters are becoming
worse. This project is designed to
property on which five year ease
ments have been obtained from
property owners and authorities.

School Improvement

Several improvement have been
made since the beginning of this
school term.
Mr.. Culbert and the school board
members had a well put in at the
beginning Of this term. We have
good water at school now which the
children appreciate very much
Since the well has been completed
there has been less sickness.
They have also fixed the furancc
so it is safe. They put a new pop
off valve on it so 1T will not get
stuck and it also saves on fuel and
water
The third improvement is that
the Kenilworth School has pur.
chased another bus. This way the
children will not have to get out on
the road so early and will get home
earlier. The children from. the 4th
giade on up have sandpapered,
stained, and vanished their desks.
Now they are much better to write
on and they look much better be-
cause all initials and carvings have
been sa:Idr@pered off and also they
are all the same color.

Fine Record Made
By Federal Credit;
Setup In 3 Years

PHOENIX, ARIZ., Dec. 2-The
.rizona Livestock Production Credit
Association, one of the first such
institutions to be chartered by the
Farm Credit Administration of the
eleventh district, made up of Cali
fornia, Nevada, Utah and Arizona
passed its third anniversary of
business on November Is. Wayne
Thornburg president of the associa-
tion, made some interesting observa
tions in commenting upon the insti-
tution's third birthday.
"The farmers of the state of Ari.
zona, except in that portion north
of the Colorado River, VINO are
eligible for the short term credit

"The repayment record of num-
ber-borrowers has been remarkably
good. Our books show that on Octo-
! Der 81 the outstanding balance in
loans amounted to only $7S2,000.

able strides have been mace toward
the ultimate complete ownership
Of the association by It's members.
On October 81, $64,455 Of the stock
was in the hands of the borrowers.
This represents 20 per cent of the
entire capitalization of the associa
ton.
Perhaps outstanding in the
building of the Arizona Livestock
Production Credit Association is the
fact that on October 81 it had ac-
culmulated reserves in the amount
of SAT, 7,0S9.48. This figure represents
the excess of income from opera
tions and investments over the
operating costs of the institution.
These reserves now stand as Sc
curity behind the capital investment
Of the members and of the Produc-
ton Credit Corporation of Berkeley,
which was the original capitalizing
source. This healthy financial posi-
ton indicates the stability and
premanence Of the association.
"Offices at the present time are
located at 301 Luhrs Tower in
Phoenix. Dan c. Mckinney is
secretary y-treasurer, while in addi-
ton to President Thornburg, the
board of directors is composed of

take hours to watch and teach him
more than a whole dictionary Of
words.
No one can see a molecule or an
atom. Therefore it is hard to get
a clear picture of their comparative
size. BY the use of a visual aid
machine, we can more easily under
stand their minute smallness, for
we are shown that if each of The
molecules in a drop of water was
as large as a grain of sand, the pile
of molecules would be 1 mile long,
l mile high, and one mile wide. We
can also see and understand the
motion of molecules.
BY taking pictures of the inner
and outer ear and throat, we can see
how sound is produced and receiv-
ed. We learn that a quick vibration
Of air causes d high sound and that
low sounds are caused by a slower
vibration of air. We may also see
the motion of the sound waves.
We may watch a butterfly
from a crysallis, a bee
gather and spread pollen, and dew
plant catch and eat fly. We learn
how seeds are pollenated and how
they are scattered. We see how the
earth's crust is formed into noun
tains and how they are gradually
worn away.
All these things are brought closer
to us with the use of a visual-aid
machine, because the average mind
can more easily grasp what it sees
than what it hears.
