REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT
The completion of the new Tanner
Chapel A. M. E. church at Eighth and
Jefferson streets is an achievement of
note among the members and friends
of this congregation and the commun-
ity generally. This building represents
an investment of $25,000 and stands as
@ monument to African Methodism in
the west.
Rev. A. H. Hamilton, the pastor, and
his affable companion, deserve no small
degree of credit for the completion of
this project. Their untiring energy and
faithful service will never be forgotten
by the loyal members of this church.
May success attend their efforts always.
COMPLAINERS
Successful men in any line of endeavor
do not complain. They keep plugging
away and failure only makes them
work harder.
Some men will fail in a business en-
terprise through continually lamenting
that business is bad. In time they will
convince all their customers that it is
and they will go elsewhere to trade.
Some farmers can work twelve hours
@ day on a good piece of land and make
a failure of it because they see nothing
and think nothing but failure. Other
farmers can work under similar condi-
tions, and by using their heads make
their work profitable.
The successful man studies conditions
and analyzes suggestions and makes
improvements as rapidly as it is pos-
sible for him to do so. His returns are
in proportion to the activities of his
brain.
The failure is slow to change. He
doesn’t take stock in new fangled ideas.
What was good enough for his father is
good enough for him. And that is all he
gets.
When put to practical use, brains be-
come a valuable asset. When merely
carried around and never exercised,
they are little better than a burden.
The old married man who first kissed
her under the mistletoe now wonders
why the heck he didn’t kiss her under
a hanging rolling pin in the first place.

COPPER TRADING CENTER ix
ca IS OPEN FOR FIRST TIME 1
Trading in copper futures started on
the National Metal exchange in New
York Wednesday, affording an open
market for the red metal in America
for the first time in the industry’s his-
tory.
The first sale, a contract of 50,000
pounds of December copper at 16.75
cents, was made by Jerome Lewine to
Harold Bache.
Edwin Vogelsang, president of the
National Metal exchange, in an ad-
dress preceding the opening called at-
tention to increased interest in price
movements of the metal.
“During the first quarter of this
year,” he said, “the market experienced
an abrupt advance and decline of
around 7 cents per pound, against
which there was no form of protection
Be ee
in the way of a free and open hedging
market.
“The board of governors feels that
absolute security and facility of trad-
ing is provided for by the rule under
which you are about to commence trad-
ing and will offer to the entire copper
trade an opportunity to protect their
position against untoward price move-
ments.”
Separation of Richard L. Hargreaves
and Mrs. Grace Bryan Hargreaves,
daughter of the late William Jennings
Bryan, was confirmed in Los Angeles
wednesday by the husband, Mr. Har-
greaves. He is president of the Beverly
Hills bank and well known in southern
California financial circles.
Mr. Hargreaves said that he believed
his wife was considering dvorce pro-
ceedings on grounds of incompatibility.
Whey have four children.

Queen Esther Play
ane play, Queen mstner , presentea
recently at the A. M. E. church, was a
big success. Fifty well-trained voices
were in the cast which proved to be

Mrs. Cora Smith Edmunds, accompan-
ist; George S. Rodgers and Mrs. Cecil
Hewitt played the leading parts as king
and queen respectively.
Big Celebration
Decoration Day, or May 30th, there

served The dining room was tasteful-

flowers of various kinds. It was also
the Seargent’s birthday and the affair
was given to celebrate this event as well
as to entertain their friends. On de-
parting, all declared Seargent and Mrs.
Lyman excellent hosts.
Politeness like charity should begin

Rev. A. H. Hamilton
Above is the likeness of the Rev. A.
H. Hamilton, pastor and builder of the
New A.M. E. Church. He came to this
work three years ago from Winfield,
Kans., where he built a church similar
to the one erected in Phoenix. Rev.
Hamilton is known throughout the
West as a church builder and his work
in Phoenix justifies the title given him.
He has been ably assisted in his work
here by Mrs. Hamilton, his lovable com-
panion, and both have endeared them-
selves to the people of Phoenix. Aside
from being a church builder, Rev. Ham-
ilton is an able minister and delivers
logical, forceful sermons to his congre-
gation each Sunday. In a word, he has
few equals and no superiors as a gospel
minister.
If it wasn’t for the much talked of
gold digger, a lot of guys would have a
harder time getting the chance to be
the groom at a wedding.
If wisdom comes with age and suc-
cess comes with years—we’d like to
know just where this bald head busi-
ness comes in any way.
We hate to say it but the fellow who
is, always saying what a small world
this is must be dodging an installment

ARIZONA CROP REPORT
the United States Department of Agri-
culture from Phoenix, under date of
May 11th:
The abandonment of fall sown wheat
in Arizona was 2.0 per cent on May 1
according to the crop report recently is-
sued by the United States Crope Re-
porting board. This is slightly higher
than the abandonment figure reported
on the crop of 1927, but involves only
one thousand acres. From the condition
of the growing crop as reported on May
1 a total production of 1,044,000 bushels
from the 41,000 acres is forecast for this
year’s harvest. This compares with
1,269,000 bushels produced last year, the
difference being due largely to a 6,000
acreage reduction in the area to be har-
vested this year.
In the central as well as southern
part of the state small grains are rapid-
ly maturing. In the earlier fields, har-
vesting has started, and if the present
rate of maturing continues, harvest in
the lower sections will be well under
way by June 1. Over the mountainous
area of the state the usual difference
in date of maturing is noticeable. In
these sections there seems to be suffi-
cient moisture to reasonably assure a
satisfactory development of the crop.
For the entire country the abandon-
ment of winter wheat is estimaed at
6.4 per cent.
Hay
The average condition of tame hay in
Arizona on May 1 was reported at 90
per cent of normal compared with 87
per cent last year. It is estimated that
18,000 tons only, remain on farms. Due
to constantly heavy market demands
and resultant high prices Arizona hay
stocks were sold very close.
In the southern valleys alfalfa har-
vest is well under way, and markets
have been very favorable. From present
outlook the first two crops will be sold
as harvested. Within the past ten days
quite a few farmers have sold alfalfa
cuttings in the field as soon as the hay
was cured. Buyers removing the crop
from the field as soon as curing was
complete. While no definite figures are
available it appears from inspection
that acre yield of grain hay will be
quite satisfactory.
General
The 1929 spring lettuce seaso nin Ari-
zona was one of the most successful
seasons in the history of the industry.
The acreage for the state wes estimated
at 1.000 acres. most of this being in the

SINCLAIR AGAIN HEAD
OF CONSOLIDATED OIL
Harry F. Sinclair, serving a jail sen-
tence for contempt of the senate, was
re-elected chairman of the board of di-
rectors of the Sinclair Consolidated Oil
corporation at the annual stockholders
meeting held in New York Wednesday.
Directors of the corporation declared
an extra dividend of 25 cents and the
regular quarterly dividend of 50 cents
o nthe common stock, payable July 15
to stock of record June 15. Dividends of
the same amount were declared in the
preceding quarter, marking a resump-
tion of dividends on the common stock
after a lapse of nearly five years.
reaching 4,341 cars, 400 cars moving
from the Yuma velley. The quality of
the stock offered for shipment ranged
from fair to good, generally good. A
weighted average of the Phoenix cash
track prices for the period March 25 to
May 1 shows that 4 and 5 dozen count
crates averaged approximately $2.85
and 6 dozen on the same basis brought
about $2.05.
It is estimated that 10,000 acres of
cantaloupes are planted in Arizona, this.
season. Ninety per cent will be found in
Maricopa county, mostly on the lands of
the Salt River Valley Irrigation project.
But few cantaloupes were planted and
covered this year, there being less than
five hundred acres in all. Although
somewhat checked in early growth by
cold weather cantaloupes are develop-
ing in a satisfactory manner. In Yuma
valley cantaloupes are nearing harvest.
The watermelon acreage for Arizona
is estimated at 1,000 acres, widely dis-
tributed over the state, largely for con-
sumption in the locality where grown.
Early growth was retarded by late
spring but the vines are doing well un-
der the influence of warmer weather.
