 Physiology today at the meeting of the territorial board of examiners iG the office of the superintendent of pub lie instruction, was made test subject for all grade certificates and raised from fifty to 100 credits. Persons ap- plying for first grade certificates must make eighty, and for second grade cer- tificates they must make sixty-fve Hereafter all persons applying for any certificate will be examined upon the subject of physiology and hygiene with special reference to alcoholic drinks and narcotics, and their effects on the human system. Heretofore the examiners have been following the territorial act instead of the con gressional act, which provides the above requirements for all certificates. The territorial act provides physiology as test for the first grade only. The board adopted as rule for Arizona the law in the congressional act which reads, "and no certificates shall be granted to any person to teach ill the public schools of the District of Colum- bia or territories after January 1 who has not passed a satisfactory eXamina- tion in physiology and hygiene with special reference to the effect of alco- hol upon the system
 Yesterday at the. M. B. church Rev. s. L. Guthrie chose his theme from sev- eral passages from Paul: "As much as there in me is, am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also" "I am 8 debtor to the Greeks, the barbarians, and both to the wise and the unwiSe." Owe no man any thing save you love him." We are debtors to the past for all the knowl- edge and experiences of it, for all the products of great movement and revo- lutions from the beginning of time, and for the great and faithful efforts of mighty characters whom we could see as we gazed back along the stream of life, lying as it were in the woods great, black charred and smouldering monarchs of the forest, their decay giving nourishment to the younger oaks. It is argued by some that it is better to be in debt, as the circum- stance would be an incentive to better effort and steadier habits. The in- junction of Poul, Owe no man any thing save you love him. was a debt that never could be paid and the only way we could cancel our obligations to man was continually love him. And though we should pay our debt to the past, which still lives, by making use of all it teaches us and so much as there in us is give our lives thus rounded out to others
