It has been noticed that one of the prominent physical directors. of the Phil delphia schools has announced that he favors the introduction of knapsacks into the public schools, because of the lopsided figures most of the pupils have from carrying books to and from their homes. This is caused by always carry ing them on the same side.
 This professor says that nearly all of the school girls in Philadelphia and in other cities are lopsided from carrying taeir books, which, if knapsacks were carried would not happen.
 This does not occur to the boys so much, because their constitution is much stronger and their muscles cannot be pulled out of shape so easily. Another reason why the boys are not so affected, is, that there are but very few who carry home many books.
 Although it is not a common thing to see any of the Canaan girls so heavily laden with books that they have to labor strenuously to walk along. it would be for their benefit if they take the advice of the Philadelphia professor and sAift their books from one side to the other while going to and from school

As the hunting season is drawing near to the end the reports of the number killed, so far, while in the woods art coming forth. In the western states, according to statistics in New York state papers, the accidental deaths while tug Standard recently published an ar ticle on the death of two hunters in one day in Maine and iH connection with this article it stated that so far in Maine the death list had reached 40 and that is in Maine alone. where many hunters seek big game. Has there ever been an article, in any of the papers saying that this sport should be done away with :? No ! The supposedly most leve1-headed men of the universe participate in this unequalled enjoyment and 1t is often that many a smart man is killed while out gunning. But regardless of the fact that nothing is said against hunting, there are by far more killed in this sport than in football which is protested by many of the citizens of the country. Therefore, why should not some action be taken against hunting which is the cause of so many deaths, instead of anti football promoters spending so much of their time writing against the game. If these people who are against the grid iron game should stop to consider, that if one gets killed on the football field he is giving his life to furnish pleasure for himself and also many thousands of peo- pie and when one is killed hunting he loses his life for the sake of his pleasure alone, they would undoubtedly work to have law enforced which would put a stop to hunting, since they are so much affected if one loses his life by football. Hence, why do they not work to remedy the thing which causes most deaths in stead of first dealing with that which causes but so few?

The United States Supreme Court recently handed down two decisions which taken together touch the interest of almost every citizen of the land. Both were in answer to the same appeal the petition for a writ of certiorari. The denial of one and the granting of another make 8 days story of startling extremes.
 Charles W. Morse, banker, ice king, steamboat magnate and multi-million- aire of not many months ago, is refused the privilege of review by the court, and he must go to federal prison for fifteen years at once, unless his counsel can succeed in some forlorn hope of 8 stay somewhere. In all probability his sun is set. He pays the severe price of bank wrecking and law breaking, and the example made of him is impressive
 Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank Morrison, labor leaders and off cials, found guilty of contempt of court in disobeying the terms of an injunction issued against them, are given what is practically new trial before the high est tribunal of the country.

 In the light of these two decisions, who can truthfully say that we have a sterner species of justice for the poor than for the rich ?-Boston Post.

CAST OFF RATS
nOiSseur.

In reports received recently from Bristol, to the Connecticut papers, it zaaas been learned that the young lady osDffscA employees of manufacturing esconcern have cast off their rats and false hair which they used. The cause of 4sbjs action was that the ninety girls were talking of different topics during esIseir dinner one day and one of the aSopics brought up was the disease of 2eDrosy and it's cause. This diseaS;. Brought to the mind of one of the girls ,8be fact that she had read that this
 disease was often COHtraCt>;.i from wear Ang false hair. This statement was 2given deep thought by aboat all of the young ladies and before the afternoon had passed they had all agreed to cast of their rats and puffs and come to work zmext morning without them. When the sznorning came all of the girls filed in with their hair neatly dressed without any rats or puffs and so no one was obliged to treat the rest with chocolates as was the agreement if any one failed sfo leave off their false hair.
 If the statemement i'll regard to con 4raeting the disease of leprosy is true it smight be we'll for all young ladies to tAaks heed, but, as none of the Canaan young ladies wear false hair, there is nc zxeed to fear that leprosy will strike ashls village. The young ladies will un 1xzoubtedly back up this statement Nis

The well-known fact that the epitaphs on the tombstones i'll the southern cem- eteries are very singular and often hum- oroas, is fully established by the follow tug:
 "Here lies inc body of Mary Mack, A trolley Car hit her slap ill the back. y
 If such epitaphs were cut on the tombstones in the northern cemeteries it would be considered disgraceful, so be careful, if possible, as to the manner in which you die or are killed.

 Phone Main 257. Vote for the Center Street Bridge and a
 Greater Phoenix.
Arizona republican., 1909-06-10
THIS SETTLES IT.

The campaign for the bridge sites has closed. All has been said that could have been said, and more than should have been said, in behalf of one site or the other. The work at the polls today is all that remains to be done. If either or both sites should fail it will not mean that a majority of the voters do not want the river bridged. It will not mean that a majority of the voters do not believe that a bridge at the foot of Center street would be a good thing, but it will mean that a plain business proposition-one which promised con venience and financial advantage to taxpayers-has been permitted to be obscured by personal prejudice.
 We trust that that will be laid aside today and that those who are not now disposed to vote for the bridge may ask themselves if the bridge will not benefit them far be- yond the cost of it. The cost will be comparatively trif1ing, not more than s to be paid in two years by every man who pays taxes on 5000 worth of property. If the bridge will result in a greater Phoenix, and mo- body doubts that it will, that fact alone will outweigh financially by far the cost of the bridge
 But whatever may come of the bridge we hope that there will be an end of recrimination and jealousy between the two sides of the river for Maricopa county needs the united effort of all sections for its highest upbuilding.
