Flies Thrive In
Wet Weather

Humid weather during July
caused the fly population to in
crease more rapidly than during
the usual dry summer weather
and placed an added burden on
officials and spray operators con-
Quoting the joint federal-city fly
control project. In the bi-weekly
report on project activities spec
Ml mention was made of the fact
that flies became more numerous
during the moist period, making
the fight on the insects more diff
ficult. AS a part of the sanitation
program, the report said, several
chicken and pig pens have been
eliminated in the city and county.

TIES THAT BIND
BABETTE TROCF1E'

Have you ever sat down and
thought about the unusual people
you know? What made them elig-
ible for that category?
Recently, I met one of the most
unusual women I have ever known.
Her name is Mary Watson. Mary
came from New Orleans. Her par
ents died when she was four years
old. She had to leave school and
60 to work after she finished the
fourth grade.
Mary married when she was fif-
teen. Her husband was thirty.
Soon after marriage they "began"
family. Three children were born
before Mary'S husband deserted
his family.
Mary supported her family by
washing and ironing. She and the
children lived in a shack. How
ever Mary kept the children, house
and yard spotless. She manded the
broken down" furniture given to
her by white people for whom she
worked.
Mary became more self-reliant
as the years passed. Instead OF
thinking of how different her sit
uation was she thought of how
she could overcome it. She set
her goal. She planned to own her
own home and educate her chill
dren.
She began "pinching pennies"
She grew a garden and raised
chickens and rabbits to "cut down
ON the food bill. In so doing, she
nrovided work for her children,
and kept them out of the hands
of juvenile officers.
Soon the garden, chickens and
rabbits not only provided food for
her family, but she sold her pro-
duce to her neighbors. Mary pur-
chased a lot with her savings, and
built a house on it.
Although she had not been given
a lesson in carpentry, plumbing or
wiring, she built the house, wired
it and put in the plumbing. Her
work passed the building inspec-
tor.
I visited in her home the other
day, and was amazed at the beau
ty Of her tiled bathroom she had
just finished with her own hands!
How resourceful. is the human
mind if the owner will but ex-
plore it's capabilities. We may not
be as talented as Mary, but most
of us can be more industrious
than we are. Stop complaining
and go to work and beautify your
surroundings.

Musings
With Bobette

August is the vacation month
for most Phoenicians. Today, you
will find many of your neighbors
and mine in the far flung corners
of America.
Soon they will be treking back
to our beautiful city with inspira-
ton and new zest for living that
will carry them over until this
time another year.
Yesterday, I was happily sur
prised to receive a letter from
Miss Gwendolyn Ragsdale, sister
Of the morticians, who is in Paris,
France. Gwendolyn wrote that she
had an audience with the Pope,
a week before. She is having the
trip of a lifetime visiting famous
spots on the European continent.
Gwendolyn is a frequent winter
visitor in our fair city. When she
returns to America do hope that
she will share her travels with us.
Jot down the highlights of your
trip Gwen and list Phoenix as a
"must" on your American itin-
erary.
Mr.. William Perry, Science
teacher at Carver writes that he
is walking on clouds with his
family and close friends in the
East. Bill, I know those nephews
of yours are giving you plenty to
think about as you try to find
outlets for their energy. Children
are lots of fun, but, oh, the care
they demand. Will be glad to see
you, come September. I know
that you will have lots to tell us
my ears are burning!
Matte Hackett writes from Los
Angeles that she is being greatly
inspired by the growth of the
Negroes of that city in the fields
of business, education and politics.
She was very fortunate to be the
guest of DR.. Vada Somerville,
Western Regional Director of the
National Council of Negro Women
at a two day conference of that
Council. Hope you will organize a
chapter in Phoenix, Matte.
Mrs. Estelle Richards, Home
making teacher at Carver, is visit
ing her two nephews who are pro-
fessors at Howard University. On
her way home she will visit day
or so here and there with old
friends. How stimulating after nine
and one half months of teaching!
The ground loses its fertility
without continuous enrichment
from different kinds of crops. Sim
ilarly, the human minds gets into
a rut without contact with the ex-
periences shared with other minds.
So the travels of our friends
should contribute to the social,
spiritual, educational and econ
omical growth of our city.

The sentiment over the gam
bling issue is gradually swinging
to the side of the measure due to
subtle bit of conniving by the
publicists in the pay of those try
ing to get the measure over. The
publicists are playing up the fact
that gambling Of all kinds is per-
mitted in the plush" clubs in
our capitol city and that Is dis
elimination against the working
man whose income does not per-
NIT membership to these places.
The working classes are getting
"sore" and more and more of
them are signifying their inten-
tions of voting for the measure.
The well respected Chief JUS
tice Arthur T. LaPrade seems as

supreme bench. LaPrade, with a

fitted for the office and he is one
