Sherman's Definition

You know what Gen. Sherman said about war.
He said it was--well you know all about the
temperature of the place he mentioned.
That was true of war, but other things are
also in the same class. It's tough to be dead
broke. It's embarrassing to be poor It's unsafe
to be doing business without deposit at the bank.
Avoid these things and many other things that are
close to what Serman called WAR" by starting
an account at our bank. 1t will grow.

DECEMBER BROKE
POSTOFFICE RECORD

December in 1918 was the busiest
month recorded in the history of
the Prescott postoffice, according
to figures compiled by Postmaster
A. /. Smith Every branch OF the
Offices business showed sub4tan-
tial gain over previous records, par
ticularly in the stamp department.
Until this record-brelking month,
December in 1912 had been the top
notch month. Last December's
business in the sale OF stamps ex-
ceeded the previous record by abou,
seven per cent. The increase in
the money order business was
smaller.
During the twelve or fifteen DAYS
ranging with Christmas as the cen
trail date, there were approximately
1900 parcels sent out from this
city, averaging a little less than
three to each resident. The num-
Der sent out eclipsed by far the
number received.
While new record has been es-
tablished. it is unlikely that Pres
colt will retain its position OF third
in the State lineup.

man Haworth of that committee has
been outlining a course of action
for a greater and bigger event

As last year the three-day event
will center upon July 4 as the prin-
cipal day. The committee realizes
that Prescottonians as we'll as Wis
itors anticipate a much more gigan-
tic celebration than the initial
one.
Determined to crafty these ex-
pectations, the event will be planned
upon a more elaborate and expen-
sive scope than before In order
that plenty of time shall be al
forded. the committee proposes to
start At once.
The suggestion that the mer-
chants start monthly contributions
to the fund for defraying the ex-
pense OF the celebration, is consid-
cred a good one by Mr.. Haworth
By the merchants contributing
monthly stipends, the heavy burden
.of shouldering a large contribution
just before the event takes place
is obviated
The committee will depend upon
the Northern Arizona Fair Associa-
ton Tor the fair grounds and other
adjuncts available for celebration
purposes.

a famous cowboy now residing III
Oklahoma, is also probable for the
event. The cowboy has practically

Much Improvement has beea
made in the ventilation OF the mines

Of the large mines, by installing
large electrically driven fans that
force pure air into sections of the
mine where it was impossible for
miner to do a SHIFT of work, have
found that such sections of the
mine can be cooled to such an eX-
tent that miner can do much
more work without impairing his
health. As ventilation of mines in
this State received very little at
ention in the past. all details must
be worked ont and the best method
arrived at for remedying the de
feet. 1 am pleased to note the
interest being taken in ventilation
and predict that in the near future

able system OF ventilation. it seems
TO me, is TO conlinc certain sec

allow the warm air to escape from

Plans to Transmit Photos
Across Ocean by Cable

BERLIN, Feb. s.-Professor Won
Glatzel says that the selenium method
Of Professor Alfred Korn. Of Munich.
for sending photographs by telegraph
has been SO perfected that 1t may be
possible within a year to transmit
pictures across the Atlantic. Expert
mental stations are likely to be erect
ed soon. Professor Korn reckons that
the transmission of pictures by wire
will occupy more than an hour.
The method of telegraphing photo
graphs is very complicated, but 1t is
based on the theory that light pro-
duced by the electric current may be
made to vary in strength and inten-
sity by variation in the strength Of
the current. The conductivity of
selenium, the non-metallic element
which Professor Korn. uses to convey
the electric current, varies with the
amount of light which falls upon it,;
Nthe stronger the light the greater its
conductivity.
