' o Abe: “Abie, de teater is boining i up!” Abie: “We shud vorry; ve seen al- most all de show,” ENROLLMENT IN LOCAL SCHOOLS SHOWS SMALL INCREASE OVER 1926 ! Marked speed in the prompt organi- zation of classes in all branches of ! the city schools, following a 16 j days’ shut-down due to the epidemic, ! featured opening of Flagstaff schools : last week when nearly 600 pupils re- i sumed their studies, according to John Q. Thomas, superintendent. The Flagstaff school- system, includ- ing all students from, kindergarten to high school, has a total enrollment of 596, as follows: High school, 150; Emerson, 324; Brannen, 107, and Dun- bar, 15. As registration had been completed | in the schools before the issuing of; the order by the school hoard for clos-; ing, classes were got underway with- out delay and every effort is being made by faculty members and stu-1 dents to make up the time lost during | I the 16 days’ shut-down. Comparing this year’s enrollment with that of last year, the figures are I found to be 13 over last year’s num- j ber of 583, or a percentage increase ; of 2.3 per cent. The general enrollment throughout the various schools of' the local sjvs- 1 tern was up to expectancy, with the students manifesting a good morale and a spirit of enthusiasm, Mr. Thom- as said. General health conditions in the schools are excellent. Conditions are more than favorable to a good school year and with an excellent teaching corps and the cooperation of . parents should insure the best results. o Labor Unions Do Not Favor Boulder Dam The American Federation of Labor went on record as affirming the Mon- roe doctrine when its national conven- tion at Los Angeles Wednesday con- demned a resolution which opposed the interference of the United States mili- tary forces in the affairs of other countries. The defeated resolution, which had expressed opposition to what it de- scribed as the imperialistic policy of the United States, and to the country sending troops and ships to China, | was condemned in the report of the | resolutions committee as having no re- gard for the truth. The convention voted its affirmation of the commit- tee’s report, which upheld the Monroe doctrine. The Boulder Canyon dam project officially came before the convention and departed as hurriedly. The sub- ject, set forth for separate actions by the labor men in three different reso- lutions, was passed on to the execu- tive council by the delegates voting their approval of the resolutions com- mittee that the triumvirate be that body for investigation and a re- port at next year’s convention. o REV.

Mrs. Allen publicly- horse- whipped Miss Martin in a Chicago street last January. o Recently a man and his wife were on their way to a party when the hus- band discovered he had a pair of long- white gloves in his pocket. “Heavens!” he thought, Jfwhere on earth did they come from?” and he slipped them out stealthily and drop- ped them out of the car window. “Give me my gloves,” his wife de- manded when they reached their des- tination. “Why, were they yours?” the poor fish gasped. o “I never was so embarrassed in my life,” cried Mrs. Straitlace. “I went to the cathedral with Harry last Sun- day and the dean spoke on the Acts of the Twelve Apostles.” “What was there embarrassing about that?” asked her puzzled friend. “Harry got up and went out be- tween the acts,” sobbed Mrs. Strait- lace.

The stand-pipe is used to hold a re- serve supply of water in case the city supply should fail. During the water shut-down here several weeks ago the water in the stand-pipe was almost ex- hausted by the time the regular sup- nly was available.

The tank now holds 100,000 gallons. o Ten Stacks of Oats Burn at Fort Valley The huge conflagration seen out Fort Valley way Wednesday night was not a forest fire but ten stacks of oats, worth 51,500 land represent- ing practically a whole season’s labor, belonging to R. B. Roundtree. The grain caught from the exhaust of the threshing machine engine. Only the prompt arrival of neigh- bors workirgAo the utmost held the blaze in check and saved the barns and other buildings. The crew had quit for noon when the spark caught, and being on the spot is what enabled the crew to save 70 sacks of grain. The engine caught fire, but it was ex- tinguished before it caused an explo- sion. The threshing outfit belongs to Thompson Brothers of Bellement. There is no water on the place, which is the old Art Williams ranch, so the fire made great headway be- fore neighbors hauling water could get into action. There were some fire extinguishers which did effective work. Guards were on duty for several nights over the burning stacks which lighted up the countryside.. There was no insurance. “Do you know how to flirt?” “I thought I did, but when I tried it the girl married me.” CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS A Direct and Economical Medium for Buyer and Seller.

    ENROLLMENT IN LOCALSCHOOLS SHOWS SMALL

    INCREASE OVER 1926!

    Marked speed in the prompt organi-zation of classes in all branches of

    ! the city schools, following a 16j days’ shut-down due to the epidemic,

    ! featured opening of Flagstaff schools: last week when nearly 600 pupils re-i sumed their studies, according to John

    Q. Thomas, superintendent.The Flagstaff school- system, includ-

    ing all students from, kindergarten tohigh school, has a total enrollment of596, as follows: High school, 150;Emerson, 324; Brannen, 107, and Dun-bar, 15.

    As registration had been completed |in the schools before the issuing of;the order by the school hoard for clos-;ing, classes were got underway with-out delay and every effort is beingmade by faculty members and stu-1dents to make up the time lost during |

    I the 16 days’ shut-down.Comparing this year’s enrollment

    with that of last year, the figures areI found to be 13 over last year’s num-j ber of 583, or a percentage increase; of 2.3 per cent.

    The general enrollment throughoutthe various schools of' the local sjvs- 1tern was up to expectancy, with thestudents manifesting a good moraleand a spirit of enthusiasm, Mr. Thom-as said. General health conditions inthe schools are excellent. Conditionsare more than favorable to a goodschool year and with an excellentteaching corps and the cooperation of

    . parents should insure the best results.o

    Labor Unions Do NotFavor Boulder Dam

    The American Federation of Laborwent on record as affirming the Mon-roe doctrine when its national conven-tion at Los Angeles Wednesday con-demned a resolution which opposed theinterference of the United States mili-tary forces in the affairs of othercountries.

    | was condemned in the report of the| resolutions committee as having no re-

    gard for the truth. The conventionvoted its affirmation of the commit-tee’s report, which upheld the Monroedoctrine.

    The Boulder Canyon dam projectofficially came before the conventionand departed as hurriedly. The sub-ject, set forth for separate actions bythe labor men in three different reso-lutions, was passed on to the execu-tive council by the delegates votingtheir approval of the resolutions com-mittee that the triumvirate bethat body for investigation and a re-port at next year’s convention.

    Ten Stacks of OatsBurn at Fort Valley

    The huge conflagration seen outFort Valley way Wednesday nightwas not a forest fire but ten stacksof oats, worth 51,500 land represent-ing practically a whole season’s labor,belonging to R. B. Roundtree. Thegrain caught from the exhaust of thethreshing machine engine.

    Only the prompt arrival of neigh-bors workirgAo the utmost held theblaze in check and saved the barnsand other buildings. The crew hadquit for noon when the spark caught,and being on the spot is what enabledthe crew to save 70 sacks of grain.The engine caught fire, but it was ex-tinguished before it caused an explo-sion. The threshing outfit belongs toThompson Brothers of Bellement.

    There is no water on the place,which is the old Art Williams ranch,so the fire made great headway be-fore neighbors hauling water couldget into action. There were some fireextinguishers which did effectivework.

    Guards were on duty for severalnights over the burning stacks whichlighted up the countryside.. Therewas no insurance.

    it the girl married me.”
