GIRLS SCHOLARSHIP
 FUND OF ARIZONA

educational work has been given successful aid III some place by some woman'S club the work | which seems to appeal strongly to all club women IS that of pro- vldlng scholarships for worthy girls, thereby enabling many a poor girl to become an inde- pendent member of her com munitY.
 Nearly 700 clubs in the United States make a scholarship ap- propriation a definite feature of each years work. Almost ev- cry state in the Union has a scholarship fund established by the women's clubs, these schol- arships are as varied as the diff erent states. Florida has kindergarten scholarship, while Pennsylvania has one of house hold economies. The Utah fed- erat1on maintains two scholar ships in each of the following schools: The University of Utah, the Utah Agricultural College and the Branch Normal of the University of Utah, aud has an educational loan fund.
 Many of the states have Normal School schola ship, while others have a scholarship loan fund. Colorado has one of the latter of over $1O,O0O. New York has a large endowment fund, started with a gift of $1O,. 900 from Mrs Russell Sage. The income from this fund is used to i 4-if-sfftlie if'ff--syftlie q Scholarship Tor g1ris in an American college.
 Realizing the inestimable value of these scholarships, as operated in other states, and knowing the need of such in Arizona, the President of the Arizona Feder. ation of Woman's clubs, Mrs. $. C. NewsOm, of Tucson, at the convention, which met here last 
 January urged that the women establish permanent fund for this purpose. In speaking of the practical benefit to be deriv- ed from such a fund Mrs. New. som spoke of many worthy girls known to her as deserving and needing st such assistance as this fund could provide and mentioned specifically two young women who were endeavOring to earn thei+ way through one of the Territorial educational institutions, but needing a little ready mouey they would in all probability be unable to remain at the institution through the
 year. The immediate needs of these deserving young women
 was promptly met not only by
 generous contributions fr m some members of the convention but Prescott women, not mem berS of the convention, also re sponded nobly to the call.
 As the Women clubs of Ari
 zona are loyal and active sup porters of education the dele
 gates to that convention pleaded , support to permanent scholar ship fund. These scholarships
 will be given i'll the University
 of Arizona and the Norma
 schools of Flagstaff and Tempe
 While the Federation of Wo
 mems clubs has undertaken the
 work of establishing this funt which IS to be known as the Girls Scholarship Fund of the : Arizona Federation of Women's Clubs" it IS not intended to be . exclusively the work of club members but rather a work by , women and for women. As ar organiza ton the Federation carl hold this as a gift from the wo : men of Arizona to the girls ot Arizona. is earnestly hoped that every woman and yIr1 with.

 The score was a good one that Is, a large one, but the "fats" lost because they couldn't run fast enough.
 The grand stand was full of people and the financial part of the affair was as pleasing as the playing. Everybody was good natured. Everything passed off pleasantly and the occasion will long be remembered.
 The flats" will again challenge their "lean" brethren for another game, to be played at some flu ture time.
 From a financial standpoint the affair was success, and af- ter all expenses are paid there is still a balance which will remain in the hands of the treasurer, to be used on some appropriate oc- casion. The financial report is as follows.

UNIFORMS IN THE NAVY

Both the officers and the crews of the older
navies used to dress pretty much as they
pleased. In Nelson's time an attempt was made
to get the officers arrayed with some sort of
system, but the sailors wore whatever they could
get hold of.
That the dominant colors In dress In the Brit
ish navy land resulting in the nayies of other
countries) were determined by a woman's In
fuence is shown In English records. The Hon
John Forbes, admiral of the feet, said:
"Adverting to the establishment of naval uni

Bedford and being introduced into an apart

uniform of tie royal navy"
While wearing a uniform himself. Nelson was
jealous in guarding against further encroach-
ments on the sailors prerogative In the matter
of dress. About the time of the French reyo-
tuition epaulets began TO be worn in continental
navies; at first only one shoulder, according
to the officers rank In 1888 Nelson, while in
France wrote to his father:

kind are simple to learn and should
be understood by the man who has
charge of the engine. frequent
cause of trouble is the failure to
strain the gasoline when filling the

1t was only few years after this however
that Nelson himself was wearing an epaulet, not
only on single shoulder, but both.
In the United States navy uniforms were pre-
scribed from the outset-but with the very wise
clause inserted parenthesis IF they can be

be held responsible both for the care

A soldering iron is very useful and
saves much annoyance. both In re-

will be found satisfactory. Where
continuous work isyto be performed,
two irons are necessary, in order that
one may be heating while the other
is in use. Soldering irons should be
heated only in a clear charcoal fire
