One and perhaps the most important is the bringing in of cut side capital for the purpose of build ins home. At the present time Wick enburg is suffering from a lack of houses with which to accommodate people who are coming there is ever increasing abundance. The town of Wickenburg is rapidly getting on the map as possessing pos sibly the finest climate In the south west. Located out of the - irrigated belt and among the mountains, it Is dry and cool in the summer. In the winter it is not subject to the severe winters of the north. Visitors to the souhwest have come to Wickenburg, have discovered this fact and have sent their friends to prove the truth of their .ipsertations. But it has been unfortunate that numbers of these people have been unable to secure ac commodations in Wickenburg It is hoped that this condition is to be eliminated. Several of the more progressive citizens have taken steps to aid in the erection of new houses and it is expected that within a ehort time- the flood of visitors will be well taken care of. Wickenburg as a residential town has unlimited possibilities. It is lo cated in a beautiful spot, has an abun dance of scenery, and is fortunate in having a body of citizens who not only dwell in harmony, but are always do ing their best to welcome the "stranger within the gates." 1GKEN URG Wl B RIDGE ACROSS D Ifl PROS One of the paramount questions bothering the town of Wickenburg at the present time is whether or not the bridge across the Hassayampa will materialize sooner or later. A con stant stream of travelers comes to Wickenburg every week from the south and the first question upon ar rival at this town always is, "When are you going to get a bridge across the river?"' Up to the present time it has almost been impossible to answer that question. It is the sincere hope and desire of every resident of this town that the bridge will come into be ing much sooner than had been antici pated. Since Xovornber of 1919, when the bridge across the Hassayampa went out, crossing- at this point has been very difficult, and after a heavy rain travel in this direction has been im possible, with the consequences" that Wickenburg has been placed in a more or less Isolated situation. Residents of Wickenburg have be come very sensitive over the subject of not having a bridge. It has become a popular paslime of those passing over the river toplame the people of this place for not having a decent crossing. It now seems to be the con sensus of opinion that perhaps people here have pressed the matter too hard and that perhaps a policy of watchful waiting will get more than activity.
