SECOND CLASS OFFICE

Mesa is now a secOnd-class post office. or at least will be very shortly. Postmaster Newell succeeded in pass ing the required amount of postal sales to entitle this office from third to second-class rating The post office receipts of any town usually indicates the growth of that particu- lar section. The receipts of the Mesa post office have grown by leaps and bounds. In 1909 it increased fl per cent, and for the past year about 30 per cent. This speaks for itself. Postmaster Newell is wearing the smile that won't come off, for the raising of the class of office means a raise in his salary

THE MESA COUNTRY
 AT THE LAND SHOW
The Fame Of the South Side Widely
 Spread

Dr. A. j. Chandler and F. w Hanna returned yesterday morning from Los Angeles where they have been at tending the land show there. They fitted up booth and freely distribut- ed literature about the Salt River Valley, and especially the Mesa coun- ! try. Mir Hanna who has charge oi an extensive advertising campaign for Mesa Improvement Co, which owns and controls the Chandler ranch south of Mesa, was on the ground when the ! land show opened and remained until | it closed. He freely passed out liter ature and information to the visitors who were more than surprised and 1 impressed with his wonderful stories 1 of this section.
 Dr Chandler in speaking of the l trip said in part: Yes, we believe we did lots of good for the Mesa section
 but it is going to take lots more oi
 advertising to thoroughly interest
 people in our valley. It is the per sonal work that counts. You can put out tons of literature, and the people are lost, but the personal work convinces, and it is this that brings people here. We saw lots of people and they seem interested. enough at least, that on the return trip east , they will stop off here and look over this section. MT. and Mrs. Porter of Chicago returned with us and we have shown them over the Mesa coun- | try, and they are simply delighted. Its this personal work that counts they tell their Chicago friends about this country. and so it spreads It means time, but it will bring results in the end.

ORANGE TREE IN BLOOM

J. l.. Waring has about the most novel house plant in the Salt River valley. In the office of the Wilbur Realty company, where inc has desk room, MT. Waring has small orange tree that came from a California nur- sery about three weeks ago. TIs tree has been regularly watered and has received its due amount of sun- shine through the large plate glass window. The result is obvious, it has a healthy and an abundance of foliage. beside numerous orange blossoms. It is rather unique that so small a tree produces blooms. and MT Waring has not decided whether this is due to the plate glass sun sIiI,e or its location.

ROADS UNDER WATER.

The Birchetts. De Vores and Waides. who picnicked Sunday at Granite Reef, report that late in tne afternoon be- tween that place and Mesa a rain fell that amounted almost to cloudburst. It rained very little at the reef and still less here, but few miles the oth- CT side of Mesa, the desert was a per feet lake and for some little distance the roads were under water. It didn't look much like rain in the morning when the two machines started on the trip and neither took precautions to take along chains. The result was that travelling homeward was a rather slip pery and difficult task.

Nursing as a Career.

1t is said that nursing is one of the
most inviting fields Of human service
and that it's financial return surpas-
ses any other occupation open to young
women. 1t develops all the native
graces of womanhood and leads the
way to positions of trust and influence.
The demand for more nurses is a
world wide call. The Philadelphia
School for Nurses. located in Phila-
delphia, Pa, has undertaken to meet
this demand by offering free scholar
ships to young women in all parts of
the country. Room, board, launder-
ing, incidental expenses. special fin
ancial assistance and railroad fare
home on completion of the Course,
are provided. Length of Course two
years. Also a special Short Course
and Home Study Course for those
who must quickly prepare themselves
for self support.
The Philadelphia School for Nurses
is a benevolent institution conducted
without hope of gain or profit in
the interest of ambitious young wo
men. Readers of this paper can get
full information by writing the School

age appeared in the Zumbrota News -

Miss Regina Fordahl, daughter of
Mr.. John O. Baar, was united in

The Non-Graduates.

Many thousands of young people
from all over the land have felt SHARP
twinges of regret during the past few
weeks while the classes of which they
were formerly members have beer
graduating from school and college.
Some have dropped out during the
course through stress of circumstances
beyond their control-poverty, illness.
need of caring for others-but a fal
larger number failed to complete their
work through sheer Indifference and
lack of appreciation of the golden op-
portunity before them. They will be
sorry all their lives.
Statistics as to the great army of
non graduates have recently been pre-
pared from figures carefully compiled
in about four hundred American cities.
They show that of every eighteen
children to enter the public schools,
only ten remain in the fifth grade,
five in the eighth grade. and but one
to graduate from the high school.
That is, "a per cent of those who
enter our city schools fail to complete
the whole course. There is an even
larger proportion in the rural schools.
1t is recognized that the public
school system is in itself more or less
to be blamed for this condition., and
trade and vocational schools are be-
ing established as one attempt to
remedy it. Often, too, the parents
are much smore at fault than the
children who drop out of school.
Naturally the higher the grade,
or more advanced the institution, the
smaller the proportion of those who,
once entered. fail to remain to grad
uate. Still, the so-called fashionable
schools and colleges lose continuous
stream of on-graduates. 1t is a fad
to enter, but a bore to remain and
work.
The non-graudate who is such
through his own lack of earnest pur-
pose. begins life wrong. The way
ahead of him will be much harder and
less pleasant than it might have
been. He has narrowed his sphere
Of usefulness in the world and limited
his capacity to get the best things out
of life. Companion.

TWO DIE IN PISTOL DUEL
Minneapolis Policeman and Escaped
Convict Battle Until Both
Are Killed.

In revolver battle at close range,
Jerry McCarty, escaped convict and
known as one of the most desperate
criminals in America, and Patrolman
Joseph Ollinger killed each other at
Minneapolis. The hunted man, cor
nered, did just what his pursuer ex-
pected him to do, opened the first fire.
Ollinger fired almost at the same in
stant. McCarty fell first and Ollinger,
with four bullets in his body, fell on
him.
The battle, which eclipsed any in
Che annals of the Minneapolis police,
was fought alone by the two men,
watched at a distance by bystanders,
who had been warned away by the po-
liceman.
The death of the two men ends a
search for McCarty which has extend
ed throughout the United States,
while McCarty, who had escaped from
Saltwater penitentiary on March 4,
continued his career of robbery.
The fatal fight strangely resembled
one which preceded the capture of
McCarty in October, 1909, when he
shot at Patrolman Jonas Jonassen, but
missed fire and wounded himself in
the hip. It was for the attack on
Jonassen that he was serving the Still
water sentence when he last escaped.

NO LICENSE.
J. N. Rosell Arrested for Doing
Veterinary Work.

Wednesday evening, one J. N.
Rosell was arrested on the charge of
engaging in veterinary practice for
hire without license. He was
brought before Justice Morrison and
deposited $40 cash bail to appear yes
terday morning at ten o'clock. Dur
ing the night he took a Great North
ern passenger train west. and forfeit
ed his bail.
Rosell appears to have made har-
vest among the farmers for a few
days past. According to his usual
story he was travelling government
inspector and after finding out that
there was chance to do some work
he would consent to do it at big
price.
The man not only was without a
license to engage in veterinary prac-
tice, but the work which he did was
often either pure quackery or fraudu-
lent. At one place he made an ex-
animation for glanders without using
any of the standard tests, and at an
other place he gave man certificate
on which to ship stock to Canada
which was worthless.
The man has probably left this
county for good, but he will do the
same work somewhere else, and pro-
badly there will be another of these
takers along in time. The only safe
thing for a farmer to do is to employ
his home licensed veterinarian, but
if he wants to take chances with
stranger. then insist on the man
showing his license.

times ragged.

a life. then hit by B. Andrisick,
a sacrifice by Watzke a double by
Eidin netted two for Morris.
The 7th, 9Th and 9th, were blanks
for Donnelly, Loeffier having them at
his mercy.
