HIGH SEAS.

The high seas embrace the open
sea so far as it is not the exclusives
property of any particular country.
The rule of international law is
that every country bordering on the
sea has the exclusive sovereignty
over such sea to the extent
of three miles from its shores,
but all beyond, not within three
miles of some other country, is open
or common to all countries. The
part of the sea within three miles
distance is generally called the terri
torial sea of the particular country,
or "mare clausum." The distinction
has little effect on the right Of
navigation, but as regards fishing it
is otherwise. Thus, foreign fisher
men have no right to fish within
three miles of the British coast with
out license from the crown, or UNI
less some special treaty has laid
down other arrangements.

WOMAN AS CENSOR.

The three commissioners govern
ing Birmingham, Ala, under the
new regime, found themselves entire
ly too busy tosheed the insistent ap-
peal of the various woman's clubs
that the moving pictures exhibited in
the city be carefully and continu-
ously supervised. So they appointed
the private secretary of one of the
commissioners to act as censor. Her
duty requires that she see every new
play brought into the theaters, and
exclude whatever, in her Judgment,
otfends.
So far the plan has worked well,
and the new censor declares it is
rather rest to her to visit one a
day, going at the noon hour from
her busy office.-From the Delinea-

Thus has E. Alexander Powell,
F. R. S., and world renowned
travel writer, spoken Of our new
State. The progress of dozen
years between Mr.. PoWell's
visits to Arizona during which he
travelled the beaten paths of the
globe trotter and penetrated the
wilds Of earth's darkest conti-
nents in search of knowledge, was
a great surprise when he came
back in 1913 and made thorough
study of agricultural, Industrial
and social conditions throughout
the State. Mr.. Powell has shown
so much enthusiasm in bearing a
message of progress to the world
about Arizona's wealth that he is
writing a long brilliant artical
about us and our State which
Sunset Magazine will illustrate
in four colors and publish in its
October number.
This is a work we can all afford
to boost and boost we'll. We have
more to be proud of in a days

every loyal Arizonian to '1et his
light so shine" that his brothers

the truth and be guided thereby.

views in the polished words of
Mr.. Powell but we can aid IN

Nowhere has the white man
fought a more courageous fight
or won a more brilliant victory
than in Arizona. His weapons
have been the transit and the
level, the drill and the dredge,
the pick and the spade, and the
enemy which he has conquered
has been the most stubborn of all
foes the hostile forces of nature.

within the space of less than
thirty years, penetrated and eX-
plored and mapped this almost
unknown region; of how he car
ried law and order and justice

had so much as a speaking ac-
quaintance with any of the three

necessity for means of communi-

how dismayed by the savageness
of the countenance which the

Another school year has begun.
Again the children have assem-
bled at the school house.
But teachers and school houses
and books and equipment alone
cannot make a good school in
Duncan or anywhere else. The
success of the school work in
Duncan this year will depend as
largely on the parents as on the
teachers and the school board.
The Arizonian feels qualified to
say that these teachers all ear
nestly desire a successful school
lis entirely reasonable to believe
that success in the years work
means much to them from their
own point of view
The people Of Duncan also
wish a successful school. They
pay the taxes which support the
school, End they pay willingly
because they wish their children
educated, They provide cloth
ing and relieve the children from
house work and send them hope
fully to school. If things go
well. the parents are pleased.
But things do not always go well.
Teachers are human, as pupils
and parents, and human beings
always will differ in opinions and
sentiments about many things.
