Miss Gilbert TireIess Worker.
Miss Gilbert has been the travellers
aid at the union station since the de-
partment was established in February,
1912 During that time she has not
missed more than six days. and these
were only when she was too i'll to meet
the trains. She is at the station for
the first train at 6:25 in the morning
and meets every train through the day
and night.

Miss Gilbert is in the travellers aid
work because of the chance it gives
her to help other people. A great part
OF her life has been spent in mission
airy work, and she considers this
equally as important a missionary fea-
ture as preaching to the heather.

that are helped by NJ Gilbert, show
tnat she IS supplying these needs.

RATES ON LUMBER ID BE .sTESTED BY A. [. [. SOON
Injunction Sent Against Commission ir
 Federal Court Also Coming.

The Arizona corporation commission has d number of important matters coming up that demand early consider ation at it's hands. and in some cases some considerable of contest is going to deVeIope. The first one of import ance is the action of the commission in deciding to file of it's own motion be- fore itself as provided by law. d com plaint against all the railroads of the state against the lumber rates now i'll effect Already the coal. vegetable, cattle and other commodity and class rates has been adjusted. and the next thing on the tapis is the lumber.
 Rate Expert Edgar Brown has been busily engaged for the past week or so in preparing d schedule of rates. which it will be proposed to place in effect. These will materially lessen the present rates but it is claimed for them that they are compensatory and remunerative. even if they are less than the present ones.
 The second proposition of importance is the trial before Judge Sawtelle in the federal court one week from next Mon day. when the permanent injunction case brought by the Santa Fe against the corporation commission for at tempting to enforce an order concern ing the operation of the limited trains along the line in the northern part of the state will be fought out
 This is he case in which the corpor- ation commission insisted that the santa Fe take passengers on all limited trains at places where stop was made to attend to any mechanical need of the train. This proposition enjoined the railroad to take passengers on the linn ited train at Iolbrook, Winsdow, Flag staff and Kingman, where stops were already made either to change crews or take water

In connection with the transpor- tation of magazines and other bulky second class matter by fast freight instead of by the regular mail routes the postmaster general expresses earnestly the hope that congress will remove the prohibition against the extension of this system of hand ling second class matter and enable
 the department to apply it where found practicable"
 It is the announced purpose of MT Burleson not to encourage the ex- tension of free delivery of mail in villages, because of the inferfOrity of
 the service and the impOssibility to secure economical administration of it. It is his intention, therefore.
 wherever practicable to utilize the service of rural carriers for the de-
 livery of mails in small towns. On that phase of the service, the report says:
 As rural routes emanate from practically all of the places where this village delivery service would be desired. the carriers should be used to make such deliveries as may
 be desirable and feasible to the resi-
 dents of the villages. The compen-
 
 this time is based on the length of their routes and to make them avail able for the service indicated their
 salaries should be based upon an eight-hour day. With this change
 these carriers could be used not only to supplement the general delivery service as indicated, but in many in stances in the delivery of parcel post matter as we'll thus obviating the necessity for additional horse hire for the delivery of the larger pack ages The compensation of rural carriers should therefore be changed basis. and these carriers should be permitted to deliver mail regardless of the distance from the postoffice or the corporate limits of the city or town"
 In conclusion Postmaster General Burleson points out that the post office department is essentially a business institution. which touches every home in the land. A high standard of efficiency is demanded of all postal employees and he says that he will require from every post master his individual attention to the affairs of his office and that this re- uuirement will be rigidly enforced
 For this reason.' he says, "the merit system should be adhered to in the postoffice department above all others in order to secure the very highest standard of efficiency in the conduct of it's affairs"

FOR OPERATION OF
(Continued from Page One.)

Its controlling purpose will be to promote efficiency by the complete standardization of the service, which will be attained by harmonizing
 equipment, adjusting the personnel and securing the greatest possible CO opera tion in every quarter.
 The prime consideration in per fecting the personnel of the postal service shall be to recognize eff ciency and to eliminate partisanship. In the extension of service and Tn , the imposition of charges the gov ernment must be guided not by the consideration of profit. but hy the needs of the people. who have a right to expect the most efficient postal service administered in the most economical manner possible. and made availa bIe to them at rates in volving. for the service as a whole. no element of taXaion. The service should be extended. with due regard for the eXigencies of public revenue. wherever it's benefits commercial and social. warrant the expenditure necessary, irrespective of whether or not the revenue from each extension will defray the cost thereof"
 Notable recommendation to con- gress for the enactment of additional legislation to facilitate and extend the operations of the postal service are made. Among the more import ant are the following:
 That the postoffice department be given exclusive jurisdiction over the selection of the sites for public build ings to be used wholly for postoffice purposes. and joint authority with f k, selection of sites for federal build ings to be used jointly by the postal and other branches of the govern ment service
 ITO amend existing law in order to allow s2,O0O indemnity for acci- dental death of any officer or em- ploye of the postal service or for death within one year as the result of injuries sustained in the service in the line of duty. Provision is also made for leave with full pay for period of one year for in juries sustained in the line of duty and then al half pay for not ex- ceeding one year additional. This is an important recommendation for the reason that the existing law applies only to railway postal clerks. sea postal clerks and postOffice in SpectOrS.
 The elimination of surety bonds now required of postal officers and employees and the substitution of a guaranty fund established and main tained by assessments prescribed by the postmaster general
 ITO authorize the postmaster gen eral to contract for experimental aerial mail service. for which an estimate of $5O.O00 has been sub

mitted
 TO permit the postmaster general to transfer clerks from post offices of the first and second classes to the railway mail services at salaries higher than the entrance salary in the railway mail service. The pur-
 pose of this legislation is to bring about an interchangeab personnel between the railway mail service and the post office service, with a view to d more effective utilization of the 10 afford better opportunities for the advancement of worthy and efficient clerks in postOffices.
 TO extend the provisions of exist ! ing law so as to provide substitutes
 for railway postal clerks who are i absent with pay on account of sick ness. the expense of employing such substitute to be borne by the gov ernment instead of by the clerk TO authorize the issuance of postal money orders payable at any money ] order office.
 To authorize the removal of the
 limitation on the amount of postal savings deposits with the proviso
 that interest shall not be paid on more than s1.0OO. This will permit
 postal savings depositors to deposit any amount"
 The report indicates that the growth Of the parcel post business has been phenomenal The experi- ence gained in the operation of the system under the revised rates and weights has shown that a further re- duction of rates and increase of weight limit is justified" says the postmaster general.
 Tt is believed that the parcel post should be made eventually to serve the people as fully and completely as possible without interfering with the efficient conduct of the postal service, and that changes in the regulations that will have the effect of increasing the volume of parcel post mail should be made gradually and only after experience and inVes- tigation have shown that they may be put into effect without loss or detriment to the service
 In connection with what is referred to as the .'prodigious growth" of the parcel post service. particularly, Mir. Burleson discusses additional com pensation to the railroads for carry ing the mails He says that data is being secured by the department which will enable him to lay before congress at d later date his con clusions "as to what will be just and adequate compensation for all services which the railroads have rendered or will be called upon to render the 
 It is pointed out that the mailing of newspapers and periodicals as second class matter at the One-cent- a-pound rate and free in the county of publication. for the first time in the history of the postal service eX ceeded a billion pounds during the last fiscal year."

Another biggest day in the sem ester" is slated for a prominent place on the high school calendar. The occasion is the annual H. S.-AIumni baseball game and the day is 1914 the first
 Like the annual football eame-it uas been annual near four months. uoW-the baseball game will he am event in scholastic circles. Beside tho game. which is only peg there lvlH be an important reunion of old timers and newcomers which repre- -rnts the expensive garment to be hung thereon.
 By the time the Alumni-C Coyote game comes along. the school team Win have been whipped into shape hy Coach Jones. Pat Hurley will be captain and general manager of the Alumni. the official pair of spurs. to soad the has-beens to unusual eff fort in behalf of their tradition
 This tradition is a fearful and wonderful thing. It is expressed best i'm the words of the Oldest Inhabitant. who frequently gets rid of it in the company of late arrivals on this old world: Well. it's purity good but t'aint nothin like what was when I was q boy" This phrase. with vari- ations. may be used in connection with most anything from moisture to morality good or bad In it's colle- giate application it is this; They don't put out teams now that could stand a minute against our varsity or Naught Blank"
 When this tradition gets jolt. such as q victory by the school team over its alumni. it wiggles it's ab- surd feathers and comes up serene again. And you ought to see it preen when the old timers put it all over the lads, Phoenix saw it when Jus tus Goebel and Bill Corpstein licked the Coyotes last fall It will observe the same grave sladsomeness among the once Wuzzers if Pat Hurley ct Alumni should happen to lambast LLe CoN0te nine.

GOODBYE TO GEORGE.

NEW YORK. Dec. 17.-The elimina- ton of William F. George, from the George Junior Republic at Freeville, \. Y founded by him more than a decade ago. probably will be recommended by the state board of charities in a state ment to be issued tomorrow. The board today adopted a report of the special commission appointed to investigate charges made against MT George in connection with the administration of the Republic.
 This report probably will recOm- mend the elimination of MT. George and the removal of all girls from the Re public" said R. M. Hebberd, secretary of the board.

He is given plenary powers under the charter This was our idea of separating him from influence. either from within or without the civic body. His salary was fixed at $500O q year. The commission cannot add to nor take away from this emolument He is therefore outside their power to influence by this means.
 The commission has no such power. It is elective, and it's duties are en- tirely legislative. It may express it. self only by resolution or by the pas sage of acts to go on the ordinance book. It may direct, but only in this manner. It may decide to go into trade-build car lines, water works, buy and sell or barter. The mayor has still other powers. and is elective along with the commission of four.

 For it will not be found that the charter government will be an instant success. Neither will it prove fail ure within six months or in a year.
 The city auditor-one of the two departmental heads not appointed by the manag ger. but by the commission checks up the manager. He is the eye of the commission.
 The city magistrate. the other of ficer appointed by the commission, is outside the legislative branch. nor is he an administrator. He has the same powers as the police magistrate under the present form of govern ment"
 In concluding. Judge Kibbey ex- plained how it was intended to keep the city government out of politics. The city manager" he said. will have more power than the governor Of the state. I realize that there is no training school for city mana gers. Unfortunately-or perhaps, l should not presume to question this-the state constitution makes it necessary

 Advanced Charter
 "The charter is a most advanced and extreme one" said Mir. Heard. 'T think it were better that the peo- pie could look about as a great cor poration would for the proper man to administer its affairs but I believe that right in Phoenix can be found the proper man for this office Mir. Heard continued by saying that the only fair way to select the city gov erning body was to make the election an absolutely partisan affair to eliminate the influence of section alism. and to get an entirely free ex- pression Of the popular voice.

 All the city governments are con- trolled by the business man. The business man seeks the control in or der to insure to himself the admins traitor most favorable to his inter- ests.

 Judge Lewis explained that parti- sanship for or against individuals and within the city must not be confused with partisanship for any of the great national or state organizations the so-called political parties.
