ably raises the cry that "booxe

misstate facts.

 "The schools of any state are one of it's most important assets, and the citizens of Arizona are of one mind in their realization of the value of good schools and higher educa.- tion.
 They have provided buildings and equipment equal to anything in the eastern states-have secured the best presidents, superintendents. principals and teachers possible, and under this guidance our schools have been so thoroughly organized, our standards raised until our chl- dren go out from our schools and enter with credit the schools of the east or the west All this was not brought about in a day, but OK tends over period of thirty years, gradually growing in each district. as it has in our own city of Phoenix, fro mthe little one-roomed, adobe school house taught for six weeks in the year 1872 by James Parker to our splendid school system of to- day
 "Tha educational exhibit is of the greatest value to parents, teachers and the strangers within our gates.

 "The belief held by the country that we can create an armj and navy when the need arises is wrong from beginning to end," says Gardner. "You can't improvise battleship or a submarine or a torpedo lr sailor after war breaks out" [,
