There will be special music at both of these services.' The morning service will be devoted to the theme of Christmas both in music and ser mon.

Martin, a world famous whistler, will render as a whistling solo "The Holy City." The church is it the corner of Second avenue and West Monroe street. ON CHRISTMAS EVE The streets of Phoenix were thronged until a late hour last evening Belated citi zens were hurrying around to do their Christmas shopping, while many were out just because they like to he in a crowd and look around. Phoe- will market their crop for them nix has seldom had larger itvds on her streets, even during fair week, and the city wore a really metropolitan air of holiday festiv ity. The throngs were added to at various times by merrymakers from various churches. Some of the churches of the city, but not all, had their Christmas exercises on Christ mas eve, and the children were made liappy by gifts from the trees, usu ally taken off and presented by old Santa Claus himself. DISPLAY ORANGES It would be pretty hard to tell who among all the people of this valley, has raised the finest box of oranges. It is therefore rather risky to suggest that the box of oranges left at the board of trade yesterday by Mrs. Winfield Krntt. from the crove of the late Chaplain Scott are the finest ever seen, but it is equally as dangerous to say they are not. It is perfect ly safe however to say that no finer ones could be desired by anybody and very few that would stand against them In a competition are ever en countered. Secretary Welch of the board of trade is duly appreciative of the Christmas gift which he hopes will help b'fing a lot more people to this valley where so nearly as It Is possible anywhere, Christmas lasts the whole year 'round. NO GREAT HURRY Col. Frank Hatch of New York who is now visiting Phoenix says he is looking for J. C. Adams to release him from under precipitation m carrying oui a compact made between them when last' they met. Mr. Hatch was urg ing Mr. Adams to rebuild his hotel with all possible speed. Mr. Adams assured him that he would do so and as a clinching proof of his faith lie assured Mr. Hatch that he would have everything completed In time to open the house on the occa sion of the celebration of the admis sion of Arizona to statehood. Mr. Hatch told him building was slow work and hinted that the promise was a wild and thoughtless one. That was several months ago, Mr. Hatch y i I.. now- says that J . may uihe ma time, take all the time, he wants to and finance the project one brick at a time. In that event he believes that statehood will come poking along about the time the new hotel Adams needs its second coat of paint bull speaking, to- the point the colonel said that he knew of about tony senators over, whom the wise one slipped the enabling act but there was nothing they could say in protest. This time they won't hrtve to say anything. The embarrassment will be on the other fellow. When a Man's Feet Are Tired There is nothing that will rest them more than to put on a pair of slip pers that came from the Square Diehl Shoe Store. They have a distinc tion that is all their own.
