. 4 Vi. THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN. WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 15, 1920 PAGE THKEK VALLEY MUD'S SOI IW IS IVOR OF ARKANSAS CITV "Word ha been received here of the election of Gilbert Yaeger to the office of mayor in the city of Helena, Arkan sas. Gilbert Yaeger was reared in the Salt Kjver valley. He is the son of Henry C. Yaeger. one of the big factors in the early agricultural and industrial development of the valley. Henry C. laeger. although 82 years old, is now j vjib or tne largest and better known cotton growers in Toheson. He has hopes that his son Gilbert will some day return to the Salt River valley and engage in farming on an extensive scale, for during past years Gilbert Yaeger has been constantly Increasing his holdings in this field and. has al ways felt that he would follow the foot steps of his father and eventually be a Salt River valley rancher. 'He has two daughters and one son, all college graduates. The son during th past year graduated froaa the Mis sissippi Agricultural college. The Helena World in commenting on the recent election of Mr. Yaeger to mayor, among other things said: "Being- a banker of long standing, it is probable that Mr. Yaeger will take active personal interest In the financial affairs of Helena. If, so, and he suc ceeds in redeeming the city's credit, that will be a feather In his cap indeed. There are also the matters of drainage and rejuvenated streets, neglected for these many months. Here, we imagine, the new mayor will find ample oppor tunity for bringing his constructive abilities into play; and, as in all other instances, he should have the solid backing of the people in every effort put forth to improve the streets and perfect the drainage system. , This is a task which has taxed the abilities of ucceeding mayors for forty years past, and nobody should expect Mr. Yaeger to accomplish in a few weeks what no mayor has been able to accomplish satisfactorily irr- two score years. "It should be remembered that pub lic administrative officials can not reach ''out and take money from the air,' and that before a municipal execu tive can accomplish needful lmprove 'ments he must have funds with which to pay for them. All such funds must be provided by the taxpayers, and the natural duty of the municipal heol is to take what money he may find pos sible. When he has done all any body can reasonably expect of him, and In order to do it he must have the hearty support of the people." o The fish-hawk is believed to be the only bird that feeds on the wing. o George Washington was one of . the richest men fn America when he be came president. o More than 60 specimens of the birds in the United States have been found in feland.'

Jefferson Ohone 1745 John Hyder We're prepared to take care of all the old straw hats in Phoenix and from the way everybody is talking it looks like we will do it. Everybody I meet on the street assures me that they'll "be there with their straw" and the -enthusiasm and interest which this novel idea has aroused is very pleasing. The stunt is tak ing the men of Phoenix "almost by storm" and I hope we save the male population of the city about two thousand "bucks" in the two days. This is a good opportunity for the men to accomplish several things. Everybody can cave a dollar and everybody can take this opportunity to look over the wonderful line of hats and hab erdashery which we now have in stock. The public is already familiar with my quality mer chandise and everybody knows that when John Hyder announces a sale, that IT IS A REAL SALE, when he announces a discount, HE GIVES A DIS COUNT and when he says that he will give $1 for old straw hats he means what he says. We are not running this stunt with the idea of becoming rich off of the sale of hats. It can't he done, because when you knock $1 off the price of a hal you murdf-r the profit. This is an opportunity for us to let the men of Phoenix know that we have a line of hats which is one of th? finest in the state. We expect this discount to bring a number of men to our store who have never before favored us by a visit. Every time Hyder's store runs something of this character a great number of new fiier.ds are made and the f:iith of our regular customers is strengthened. Stetson, Mallory and Italian Porsolino hats are in my store for your selection. The straw h;it season is over. September lr.th is the day to bedeck your self in a new fall hat and Hyder ',: store offers a wonderful line r;.t a saving of 51 per hat. JOHN HYDER s RANK en Footbal practice starts tonight.
