WINSLOW CLEAN Up DAY.
Clean up, Paint up, Burn up

The Woman's Club of WinsloW
have set Saturday, Nov. 7th as
"clean up day." and ask the CO.
operation Of every man, woman
and child.
Much has been done in the
last few years to make WinsloW
a cleaner and prettier place, but
much more can be done if every
one will manifest a little civic
pride.
Let us make Winslow, of which
we are proud, a city in which
people will want to live. There
are many unsightly spots which
certainly make a bad impression
upon visitors and newcomers.
The school children are asked
to help in this movement, en-
courage them for they can do
great things. Children would
just as soon work as play if Civ
en- the proper incentive. They
can get as much fun out eff pick
ing up rubbish as throwing it
down. Instead of wanting to
shirk responsibility there is
nothing they love more. Boys
and girls are civilized people who
delight in the duties of citizen
ship and rejoice in setting their
elders a good example. So help
them to pile up your tin cans,
tear down dead vines, pull up
Withered flowers and burn them.
Make your own premises appear
as good as possible.
Paint up as well as clean up, {
little paint on the fences anC
sheds will not only improve the
looks but preserve the wood az
we'll.
If you don't own a home her,
help US in this work for the sake
Of the town.

A Retrospect

There is more in life than
toll, and the man who works
with his hands and honestly per-
forms his duties to mankind is a
builder whose works will in
fluence civilization to the remot-
est day of the future. Men toll
and strive to acquire that which
they prize above everything else
in the world, suffer privation and
hunger if need be, to obtain what
they long for. when suddenly the
very foundations of society and
government are overthroWn by
a sudden turn Of the wheel of
evolution, and his hard earned
accumulations seem as paltry
sand. But it is not SO. for what
to him may seem insignificant is
ofttimes viewed by those who
f blow as the greatest acheivment
cf the age. Nothing is lost in
the word of industry. What the
world is today, and the people
who inhabit it, is but the essence
of what has gone before US. The
same longings and emotions that
thrill the breast of our country
men today moved our ancient
and medieval ancestors to deeds
of daring and gallantry which
paved the way to twentieth cen
tury civilization. Every man, as
we'll as every country, has an
ideal toward which he strives.
Let it be peace or war or what
not, as surely as time flies every
being is laboring for his goal.
Concentration Of thought and
power in a certain direction or
for a certain purpose accomplish
es that thing and not another.
If we had the power to unearth
and revivify the bodies of those
who Graded the human race in
its infancy, and analyze and de-
termine the longings and crav-
ings of their beings, or if we
could but see thru their eyes Of
imagination, we would discern, in
what to them was the far remote
future, the world practically as
it stands today. Then, to we of
the now, to whom is given the
power of moulding a still remote
future, comes the force of the OBJ
legation that is ours. AS sure as
you die, the influence of your
life will act as a factor in steer
ing the affairs Of state to right
or to ruin.

Saturday night at the EIes tli,
theatre the Democra6cs helt
their final rally Of the campaign
and, when taken into tonsidera
ton the number Of local Cal di
dates who were billel 70 appear
the crowd that gathered was, Il
say the most, only far. Small
crowds are a charastic of politic
al meetings in Winslow and it j
doubtful if there is another tow
in the state of equal population
whose citizens take 50 l:ttle inter
est in such affairs.
DR. Geo. ? Sampson, chs T
man Of the Democratic cenua
committee, presented the candid
ates, among whom were Ton
Norris, Judge Barnum and Rec /,
M Ling from out of the county.
Ling was the principle oratc i
of the evening and confined bis
remarks to state and nationa
affairs.
The local Republicans candid
tes held their final rally Mond; J
evening at the same place bui
was attended by the largest
crowd that has attended a polit.
cal meeting in Win3iow t! is
campaign. Standing room OF

'Tis possible that the Democrats,
had a vision Of a slaughtering al
the polls on the morrow and tool
pity on them, attending tt eli
injecting enmasse as q respite be
fore the execution. Anyway the
crowd was there and Al cheering
one it was two.
j f Kleindienst, CHAIRMAN of Il {
Republican central bmmittee
introduced the candidates.
! Attorney E P Conwfll was th'
orator Of the occasion And made
a very brilliant and witty speecl
that suited the occa@ion to ;
nicety. He brought Flown tbs
house in a thunder off apE laust
Iseveral times and wa5 cheerec
for encore on taking his leave.
Miss Casey was neYt at tbt
bat and made a rather; extended
speech confining her: remarks
principally to attackinglthe Dem
ocratic administration; She was
fighting for the cause Of the
United Mil Workers but she was
evidently barking up tie wrong
tree when she said that it "; s
impossible for women to get SUI
ferage under the Demdcrrtic ad-
ministration. In her eqrnestness
she ve"ged onto the hy5terical al
times.

State Democratic Ticket is
Elected With Sweeping
Majorities;; Drys Cash in
Three Thousand to the
Good; Eight Year Amend
rlent is Defeated.
County Offices are Divided;
Two Independents Win.

The largest vote ever cast was
cast in WinsloW at the polls Tues
day. The interest taken by the
voters in the different issues
came as a surprise to many and
before the polls closed over 500
votes were cast. The ladies came
out in force apparently knowing
before hand just how they were
going to mark their ballots which
was evidenced by the quietness
and despatch in which their vot-
ing was done.
Winslow was candidates head
quarters the first of the week
and almost every county cand-
idate was to be seen on the
streets. One party was over
heard to say that his arm ached
from the effect of the many
friendly overtures he received.
Navajo County went dry by. q
majority Of between 400 and
500 and the dries carried in the
state by a majority Of 5000 or
over.
It is certain that Hunt wins
out over Cameron and that a
state democratic ticket was cleo
ted in almost every instance.

BETTER Babies" CONTEST
At the State Fair at Phoenix
Better Babies !"

Better Babies !"
What an optimistic, captivating
sound these two words have!
And the best part of it is that
they stand for all that their sound
suggests, one of the big, inter
esting, vital ideas of the hour,
the Better Babies movement.
Let 'er move
1t is started with the idea of
making the old-fashioned baby
show bit more satisfactory by
having babies examined>for phys
ical perfection instead of dim
pies, golden ringlets and peach
and-cream skins.
A Better Babies contest is a
scientific examination of children
three years Of age or under, for
physical and mental development
and the awarding of prizes; good
looks, infantile beauty, count for
what they are really worth while
many smore important things
count a great deal more.
All of these tests will be made
by a doctor, and it takes a mighty
fine baby to score over 80.
At Our Fair: they II be there:
November 9 to IA. Mrs j. C.
Norton, president of the moth
ers' congress of the state Of Ari-
IONA, in charge.
Besides Better Babies at the
Fair, there will be moving pic
lures that will thrill, good horses
that will break records, autos that
will race, and an unsurpassed ex-
hibition cannot fail to embrace
many things that will interest all
who attend.
| And The Big Far is only one
week away.

JAPAN IS PREPARING
 FOR EvENTUAu|T|ES
All Correspondence Censored and
 Newspapers Closely Watched.

Tokio, Aug. 21.-Japan is quietly preparing for seventualities following the expiration next Sunday of her ul- timatum to Germany demanding the withdrawal of German .Warships from the orient and the evacuation of Kiau- Chau.
 The strictest prohibition has been placed on the publication of any in- formation concerning the movement of Japanese ships and troops. All correspondence is censored and the newspapers are closely watched.
 No Anti-German Feeling.
 The activities at the German em- bassy, where personal effects are be- ing packed for shipment, are the only indication of what the answer of Ger many will be. Meanwhile, notwith- standing the most sensational reports of the treatment of Japanese in Ger many, there is no evidence of anti German feeling here. On the con- trary, the authorities have given mo- tice that all Germans remaining in Japan must be treated courteously. German professors are expected to re- main at their posts unless they arc needed for service at home.
 The war and navy departments are preparing for a movement on Kiau- Cnau where, contrary to current re- ports,' the Notifications are really for midable. Since the outbreak of the European war thousands of Chinese coolies have been employed strength ening these defences. It is believed here that the taking of kiau-Chau will not be an easy task.
 Japanese Press Surprised.
 The Japanese newspapers and lead ing Japanese press are surprised at the tone of that portion of the Amer ican press that attributes sinister mo- tives to Japan in sending an ultima tum to Germany. The statement that this action was taken only after weeks of conversations with Great Britain and was at the request of and with the approval of Japan's ally, Premier Okuma and Foreign Minister kato have made repeated and categorical denials that Japan has designs on Samoa and the Philippines or any other territory.
 Baron Eiichi Shibusawa, president of> the American-Ja panese association and Buei Nakano, vice president of the same organization and president of the Tokio chamber of commerce, are heading movement intended to reassure China of Japans pacificatory intentions M. Nakano will leave for China soon, it is announced.

half a dozen of the little tots under it's care to the seashore.
 To say that the kids" were tickled when they started out on their trip would be putting it mildly. In the first place they had never before ridden in an automobile and, when they took seats in the car which Mrs. George P. Hart kindly loaned the organization, their joy knew no bounds. There was not bump in the entire road to New Britain which did not add to their pleasure.
 The assistant agent, Miss Lillian Lorch, took the trip with the chill eren and she was kept busy explain ing all the objects of interest along the wayside. She had a hard time in trying to convince the children that the Meriden Peat Works ponds were not part of the big sea that they had heard so much about, when they espied that great expanse of water.
 Owing to the fact that the little New Brtainites had never before been away from home, they were slightly frightened at first upon mingling with the many other children of their" cottage. This barrier was son over come, however, as they began romp- ing and playing on the beach.
 On Monday of next week the party will return to this city, Mrs. Hart having offered her car for the trans portation.
