There is no limit to the resourceful-
ness of the criminal mind. Paul Van
Der Pool is the highest type of kid
glove criminal in the two Americas. He
finds himself out of funds and suddenly
thinks of his jeweled watch and how he
can raise 500 on il and still retain pos
session of the watch. Calling in his
valet. Rilkins. he sends the man with
the watch to a pawnshOp and by clever
connivance with the police manages to
get 800 and the watch.
"RiIkins." said MI Paul Van Der Pool
as he pushed back his chair and laid
his folded napkin on the sparkling white
table cloth before him. I've invited six
people to dinner tonight. It's about that

The Good Roads" Century.

From the Kansas City star
When the first transcontinental railroad
was completed there were national re-
joicinEs.
At this time an event like the Miss ou.f
good roads days arouses national atten-
tion.
The nineteenth century was engaged
chiefly in building railroads.
The twentieth century is building wagon
roads.
The right distribution of prosperity de.
pends most upon that particular twentieth
century job.
The right balance between town and
country population depends most on good
roads building.
Good roads mean that the farmer and
the consumer can get together. They mean
that the farmer can be on top of the ma
ket instead of the market on top of the
farmer.

These patterns are transferred by
the hot iron process, which is the
simplest method that has yet been
devised for the effecting a perfect
transfer. All that is necessary is to
lay the pattern on the material
and press over the entire surface
with hot iron when perfect transfer
will result.
The patterns are supplied either
in blue or yellow so that they can
be used on light or dark colored
material. In ordering state what color
is desired.
The patterns will be sent to any
address for 10 cents each, postage paid,
enclosed in an envelope on which is
printed full directions for using, and
instructions for embroidering the de-

SUGGESTIONS FOR TRANS
FERRING THESE PATTERNS.

THE window pane method is per-
haps the simplest and is particu-
larly successful when the material
is thin such as batiste, lawn, or hand
kerchief linen, the best plan is to pin
the sheet Of paper and the material
together and hold them up against
the window pane and with a sharp
pencil trace the design on the fabric,
or else lay the material on the pattern
on top Of table or other hard surface,
and carefully trace the design with a
well pointed pencil, the design may
also be transferred to heavy material
by using piece Of transfer or carbon
paper, to be placed between the pat
tern and cloth, using a sharp pointed
pencil to secure clean lima

GOODFELLOWS'
 OPPORTUNITY
Christmas Time Gives Many Chances to Distribute Good Cheer; Matinee Will Be Provided for Youngsters Bv New Members

At no time during the year are so many opportunities presented to make the lives of fellow men more cheer ful and brighter than at the Christ mas season. The Goodfellows club. q perfectly simple organization. is one of the many. the sole object of which is to distribute happiness. and in this. this year, although. it was started but a short time ago. has received sufficient support from the generous hearted people of Phoenix as to make it one of the actual me thods for taking good cheer into the hearts and lives of the poor in Phoe- nix in an eminently successful way
 Quite a number of GoodfeIIows. who had hitherto neglected to sign up got busy yesterday and phoned in their names to The Republican and found the secretary on the job. And these good people will shortly receive the names and addresses of families to which they can distribute the evil dences of the good feeling that ob- tains to so large an extent here now.
 Among those who have come for ward with offers of help is Man ager O'Grady of the Lion theater. who suggested yesterday, a poor childrens matinee on Christmas af- ternoon Manager O'Grady was inn mediately assured that the Good fellows of which he then became one. were only too glad to rceive this of fer of assistance and to assist him in every way to make the matinee 2 successful one.
 From now on. and until Christmas. there will still be other families and other poor little fellows found. to whom some Christmas cheer should be extended, and in behalf of these. the Goodfllows' club will hold open it's register until the morning before Christmas At this time il will be necessary to close it, otherwise there will not be time to get the good fel- lows and the poor little fellows in touch with each other. so that each can feel the happiness of Christmas time The Republican stands ready to assist in every possible way. 10 make Christmas. 1913, a never to be forgotten one in the memories of both the GOodfeIloWs. who give and the poor fellows who receive If there are any who have a desire to help in this worthy movement. all that is necessary is to call 422 or 433 over the telephone and say what it is he wants 10 do.

Captain T. Conneu, following the suggestion of T. Elliott. industrial agent of the Wells Fargo in Los Angeles, is seeing to it that the public of Phoenix is made aware Of the new rates and that the good work of the board of trade is not passed unnoticed For q long time Captain Connen has been ad- Vocatng just such shipments as these but until the inauguration of the new rates had no very attractive proposition to offer the public. The lowering of the rates which extends to the Califor- mia cities has resulted in the boards of trade and other organizations in Los Angeles, san Diego and the Sacramen- to valley adopting resolutions quite in line with those of the Phoenix board Of trade.

GRANTS PASS MAY NOW
HAVE CARNEGIE LIBRARY

The Carnegie Corporation OF New
York, through its secretary, Jas.
Bertram, under date of February 10,
writes Mayor Smith of this city that
Grants Pass can now obtain s12,500
OF the Carnegie fund for the con-
struction of library building if the
municipality will provide the site
and the maintenance fund. There
are no restrictions upon the location
OF the site, but the council must, by
resolution, agree TO maintain the IL
brary at a cost of not less than ST.
25O per annum, the use OF the IL
brary to be free to the public.
The Sl2,500 is to cover the cost
of the building ready for occupancy.
The Carnegie company, however,
wants the plan or sketch of the pro-
posed building referred to 1t for ap-
proval before any expense is in
CURED. Following this, and the ac-
tion of the city in agreeing to pro-
vide a site and support the library,
the funds will be placed at the dis
position of the city.
Vote of the people would be neces-
sary before the providing of the
fund for maintenance of the library
and the acceptance of the gift could
be accomplished by the city. The
city has previously voted upon this
question, but it is claimed that there
is now stronger sentiment in favor
OF the library, and the council will
probably be asked to again submit
the question to vote.

paid on Saturday night to the con-

Every candidate should be careful
not TO depend on promises of sub

Never count on a subscription until
YOU have it in your hand Then it

their pocket to pay for it when the

putting you off on promise they
ever intend to fulfill. If person
is interested enough in your cam

he should be interested enough to
