CALL FOR TNSELFISHNESS

Inc crest of the flood passed out into
the gulf today. For which we are prop
erly glad. Yet the loss and worry. the
sorrow and sense of calamity could not
pass out into the gulf with the rush
ing waters. They remain with tn, vie
TINS OF the calamity as bitter melnor-
les. BY and by will come the memories
O1 the herOiSmS and self Sacrifices: and
the memories OF the generous readiness
OF the people to undo the effects Of the
dlsaster, as far as hearty good will and
Dountlful service rendered may undo
them. 1t may he that in the story Of the
Hoods there were instances of gross
cOwardice and Sc~lfiShncSS. We may he
reasonably thankful that such stories
have not reached us, Just as we may fair
ly regret that all the stories of heroic
unselfishness have not come to our ears
so that this much light and cheer might
come to us out of tn darkness. Men
we're found who gave their lives for
others. Gave their lives quietly, Just as
a matter of coursc-juSt from feelings
that humanity demanded of them that

bOrs or strangers, no matter which.
Yet We must not forget that the occa-
sion for sacrifice is not over. Many Of
us perhaps feel that we have suffered
losses this year. Others of us may fe,
that We have stood unplcaSantly close
to the brink Of loss. Still we are more
fortunate than the p oplc in whose he
half the governor Of the state appeals
to us. They have lost everything or
nearly SO. We still have this rich vaii '
soil-soil which is not limited 20 one
crop a year. And c.still have his grn-
tie winter climate, which nevertheless
from time TO time, gives a hint the 'suf-
ferings endured by the pcopl- cyictcd
from their homes by the mcrcilcSS riv-
ers along WHOSE courses thr ice forms
every night. The occasioni makes no dc,
mand on our physical courage. but il
calls for self denial which, in many 81
us will amount to teruism.
The Herald would once more call Al.
tention to the fact fhat the calamity
has stricken the farmers along Tie TN.
as rivers IT the worst possible season
for them. Ii is good to know tina. The
Red Cross society. the United SIate>
government and the State of Texas Will
do what they may 10 relieve the suffer
ing caused by the flood. but much 9th
ctr relief viii he needed. II will b.
many weeks till the farming season
opens in the flooded districts.

TEMPE-PAYSoN STAGE.

forty horse power three-tOn ca pacity Mooreland automobile truck has been put into service between this city and PaysOn, Arizona. While purchased principally for their own use, J. C.. Chilson and w. L. Carpenter the own CTS, hope to do a general public freight ing business. The initial trip of the machine was made yesterday, Carpen- ter at the wheel TWO days up and two days to return is the running time fig ured on, so that a regular time sched- ule of weekly trips will likely be in augurated soon. Chilson, personally interested in various business deals in and around Payson, figures that with the additional drayage business for the several PaysOn merchants, there will be more than enough freight for week ly trips to the mountain town. With this as one of the closest railroad sta tons. heretofore practically all the freighting has been done by wagons. That the inauguration of the truck will prove success in replacing the horse IS practically assured.

TEMPE WOMEN'S CLUB
 ADDS TWO OEPART ENTS
Big Representation at Initial Gathering on Friday. Educational and Moth
 er's Departments new Features.

Reorganization, the preliminaries to- wards the organization of two subor- dinate orders and the revision of the constitution and bylaws furnished an unlimited supply of business for the sixty odd members of the Tempe Wo- mems club when they met last Friday afternoon at the high school to lay plans for their winter work. The club in all it's branches is to be greatly en- larged this year, new divisions will be made and best of all the parent club is to be closely connected with all Wo mems clubs of the state.
 Officers of the club as elected at the final meeting last spring and who will serve during the coming year are: Mrs. C. c. Cash, president; Mrs. I. V. Stew art, vice president; Mrs c. B. Turner, treasurer; Mrs. Howard Brown, cor responding secretary; Miss Gertrude York, secretary. Chairman of the civic department Mrs. J. T. Birchett.
 The club this year is set on taking active part in the work of the various women's clubs throughout the state. In order to do this they found it necessary in many cases to alter the constitution and bylaws. While his work took up a considerable part of the afternoon it is finished now and will no longer re- quire attention for the year.
 The organization of q mothers de- partment is to be a feature with the club. An enrolment has been made and the organization will be perfected at the public school building next Fri day afternoon. The study of the child in the schools today will be this years problem with the department.
 Any entirely new feature of the civic club is to be the educational depart ment. Upon the motion of member at the club meeting Friday afternoon to inaugurate such a department and subsequent unanimous vote in it's favor, women interested in this feature will gather at the home of Mrs. Howard Brown next Tuesday afternoon to per feet the organization. Literature and history in America will be subjects for departmental discussion under the edu- catiOnal head
 Parliamentary law and town and school government will be subjects for discussion in the civic department. A thorough knowledge of parliamentary law is something lacking in the club and while they managed to get through last year under the existing conditions not so will they do during the next eight months. It will be a half hour study of the laws every session. As members of the state womans' confede- ration, the club will be afforded a num- Der of interesting lectures this winter It is possible that the club will secure speakers from the extension lectures at the University of Arizona
 All in all, the WOmans club of Tenn pc is looking forward to a most sue cessfuI winters work. The member ship will reach all of a hundred and practically all will be interested more or less in the three departments
