Mr.. Richmond deserves praise
and credit for this donation. Such
a set is of great value especially
to the History classes of the school.
The value of good books cannot be
estimated ard the good that Mr..
Richmond has done the school and

who are public spirited enough to
give to school and public libraries
books like these just received are
truly men of public worth and men

Low GEAR RUNNING
ONE HUNDRED MILES

Individual laboratory tests of motors
under the supervision of skilled en-
gineers. and road tests with special
drivers, have all been used to prove the
value of different constructions and
other features of automobiles for a
long time.
A broad commercial demonstration
such as has now been decided upon by
the Franklin Automobile company, is a
great averaging of all conditions of
cars, drivers, roads, weather, etc. They
propose on September "a to run all day
on low gear, the demonstration to be
made by all Franklin dealers through
out the United States and Canada.
They are to run for 100 miles without
stopping the engine, and each test is to
be officially certified to by prominent
automobile. and press officials, A stock
car will be used in each case. and the
regular fabrication The oil and gaso-
line are to be measured as well as the
time taken to make the run.
From the standpoint of averaging
conditions. this type of demonstration
shows the real value of any particular
car or device more than any other
method of testing.
This severe test is being made to
show what direct air cooling will do.

PHILLIPS LETS
CANNING OUT
Probation Officer Is Re
moved After Years of
Faithful Service Because
of Differences Of Opinion
on Matter of Methods.

Judge Phillips of the superior court
of supervisors of the removal from Of
flee of Probation Officer j. w. Can.
ming, and announced that ne had Sc
iected Bert o. Brown, to be Cannlng's
successor The removal of Canning
followed his refusal TO resign following
differences betWeen7the court and an
other court officer, these differences
having largely to do with the manner
OF handling some of the cases of de-
linuuencies and neglected children.
In removing Canning, Judge Phillips
expressed deep regret that such
course seemed necessary. He said that
Canning had been most faithful and
energetic officer, but that because of
the criticism that had been heaped
upon him from various sources, his
usefulness had been narrowed Moth
ing involving his personal integrity is
embraced in my reasons for removing
Canning" said Judge Phillips yester-
day. 1T is simply a matter of errors
in judgment on the part of the man
and the failure of the officer to har-
monte his views with those of others
attached to my court"
j. w. Canning has been probation
and humane officer for several years
and in that time has handled hundreds
of cases effectively. His name became
a terror to the wife beater, the neglect
full father or mother, the wife deserter
and the abuser of dumb animals. Chill
dren without homes knew him as d
friend, as did incorrigible and delin
quent children. In his own way he has
probably done more to right wrongs to
children in Marcopa county than any
selected one hundred individuals in his
jurisdiction.
1t was largely through his efforts
that the large and roomy house and
spacious grounds on East Van Buren,
street were purchased by the county
for detention home purposes. Adopting
to no small degree his ideas of what
detention home should be, the Marico-
pa County Detention Home has become
a monument to his wisdom and fore
sight. There neglected children have
been given shelter, food, clothing and
good home influences. Delinquent
children have been housed there for
varying periods until their cases have
been disposed of by the court He has
been an ever present help to the board
of supervisors in their efforts to aid
/ helpless minors. His position has been
and always will be one in which criti-
cism will be the daily sauce, for no
man could carry out all that the office
requires without treading almost con-
stantly upon the corns of scores who
wouldn't take the job if it were off
cred, but who have theories without
end as to the methods that should be
employed.
Bert O. Brown for several years has
been in the employ of the city at
tached to the health department as
sanitary inspector. He has been active
and sincere in his work and viii no
doubt enter his new field with the
same vim and energy that has marked
his work for the city.

bALKE'S FIRE
WAS DISASTER
Most Destructive of Value
in Phoenix - Valuable
Collection of Great Stock
Of Antiques Gathered in
Thirty Years Suffers.

1t turns out that the mbst destruc-
tive fire within a small compass in
the history of Phoenix was that
which ravaged Balke's Big Curio
store early on Sunday morning. The
estimated loss is $4,000, but Mr.
Bake would not have taken that sum
for the goods that were destroyed for
many of them were priceless. 1t
was thought on Sunday morning that
not great deal of damage had
been done except by smoke. 1t APP
peared that the fire had been con-
fined to the basement. But it trans
pires that havoc was wrought
throughout the whole stock. There
have gone many valuable antiques
and prehistoric specimens of col
lection which Mr.. Bake had been
making for a generation drawing on
every section of the Globe. 1t was
one of the most varied and extern
sive collections in the country. 1t
was not the intention of Mr.. Bake
to sell any part of it but he con-
templated, when he retired from
business, presenting IL 10 IHuSeuii.
The damage to the stock proper
was not less than $4,000 Exquisite

Indian baskets were destroyed. OF
course, much of the stock escaped
with comparatively little damage but

1t is not known how the fire
started. 1t was thought that the
origin was a cigarette dropped in the
basement by young man who had
been shown through it late on Sat
