 It pays to prepare for the heat ot summer here and if Arizona husbands would furnish their wives with the comfort and convenience of a summer cook stove there would be less weary worn out women and less doctor bills.

MUST CHOOSE TRUSTEES
NEW LAW GOVERNING STATE
SCHOOL DISTRICTS.
Auditor SOwelI Sends Information to
Counties Relative to Elections In
July TO Select Three Dis
trict Trustees.

Under the school law passed by the
last Legislature trustees for every
school district in the State must be
elected the first Saturday in July.
The school districts which fail to
| comply with this provision of law may
lose their share of the apportionment
of the public school funds The law
declares that on the first Saturday of
each July the householders and free
holders of each district shall elect
three trustees of the new districts
formed under the operations of the
same law 1t is required of the trus-
tees that they shall reside in the dis
tricts and be able to read and write.
No one is charged with the duty of
calling the election. The citizens are
supposed to meet of their own accord
Still it must be done and certificates of
the result must be filed with the Coun-
ty superintendent of Education
In some of the counties the selection
of the school trustees is looked upon
az a general election. Some of the
County Registrars thought that 1t
would be necessary for the Board of
Registrars to register the voters in or
der that they might be qualified to vote
in the election. The error of this idea
has been pointed out by Auditor Thos
l.. Sowell in letter he has addressed
to some of the registrars who asked
II they should open the books for reg
istration for this election. The Audi
tor Informed them that they should not
The election, he said was in no sense
a general election Moreover, he point
ed out that the law provided no ma
chinery for the election, therefore
there could be no wrongdoing or pen-
atty for wrong-doing in the election.
The local school authorities of the
various counties are not well versed I'm
the provisions of the new school law
and their attention has to be drawn 10
them frequently to prevent their loss
of apportionment by an oversight.
