The Successful Experiment of Camp Lewis" ill the Mountains Near Globe
 Where Boys Who Had
 Been Bad Became Useful

A mountain camp for juvenile of lenders with wholesome play and con- structive work, government of thelr own making, and each boy unconsci- ously a unit working towards the cor rection and salvation of the others, was a unique plan adopted in Globe few wears ago So far as known a similar plan had never been attempted and the experiment was watched with great in- terest by all interested in juvenile work. When it's success became known the plan was adopted in a number of places Its effect in lessening juvenile offenses was so salient that Globe has since never found it necessary to repeat it. A dozen or more boys were effectually checked in their first ventures in petty lawbreaking by the. opportunity for self reform afforded them and have since become lawabiding and respected members of society.
 When Ernest w. Lewis, now candi- date for mayor of Phoenix, was ap- pointed associate justice of the terri torial supreme court and assigned to the Globe district he was called upon to hear complaints against juvenile of lenders and impose punishment accord ing to the gravity of the offense. Ii was the most unpleasant duty he had to perform, and he Immediately inaug urated a probation system through which the wayward boys were given every possible chance. Environment was found to be responsible for the downward trend, and Judge Lewis soor desided that environment must be util- ized to correct the evil; the environ ment of the mountains, pure air anC the snap of the pines, under discipln, which should be so subtle in it's admin istration that the child would sooI yield to the belief that he was respon. sible for all the other boys conduct

three large tents and canvas-covered amusement room. They cut down pine tree and placed it on theIr campus and when George ". P Hunt made them present of "Old Glory they flung it from the topmast with fitting ceremony The boys were unanimous in choosing Camp Lewis" as the name of their rendezvous. and they addressed their commandant as Governor Tul- loch'' accompanying it by d strained military salute.
 Work and play were well divided. The roads leading from Globe to the mountains needed repair and the boys did the work. They were paid fifty cents q day for their work. and the county profited in this way Soon after they established camp a fire broke out in the pines near the top of the noun tains. The forest ranger enlisted the boys as firefighters, and they saved the mountains from being devastated by their early arrival upon the scene and their effective work. The govern ment afterward recognized their work and paid each boy at the rate of $3 q day for his labor
 The discipline of Camp Lewis soon 1 became perfect. The boys entered into the spirit of the life earnestly, and tried each offender according to a strict military code of their own con ception. The officer of the day was the judge. The favorite punishment of the boy judge was the medicine pole '' The offender was taken to pine tree 1 and his legs used to tie him to the i tree. Nothing was used but the boys
 own legs, and they were placed in such position about the tree that his strug- Sles to free himself were of no avail. | Offenses were few, consisting in the most part of petty violations of the camps very drastic rules of behavior | If a boy overlooked the little matter of saiuting the officer of the day he was
 due for tussle with the medicine pole
 The routine of the days life started when the boys were reused at six l o'clock in the morning. After theN i tumbled out they were allowed fifteen | minutes to make their beds and anothe, | fifteen minutes to perform the agonies
 of boys morning toilet At 6:30 came ! the flag service installing in the minds l of the youngsters that patriotic ardor i which Is the nations bulWark. The
 service consisted in raising the flae
 and the singing of patriotic songs
 after which Governor" Tulloch ad-
 dressed them upon the duties of citi-
 zenship and the part each was to take | in making the world better Then cam, ! breakfast followed by the days worl and play, the sanitary work of tho
 camp being left to the younger boys
 and the older ones march off for {
 half-days work upon the roads.
 The absolute freedom from contam. mating influences lent a wholesome in. ! fluence, and Camp Lewis soon proved
 that the theory of Judge Lewis wa the practical solution of juvenile ref
 ormation, and later when George w. ?
 Hunt became governor of Arizona h,
 no doubt found in it's success warran
 for applying the honor plan to a nor,
 complex reform problem.

CHARLES FRALEY
ON HOTEL QUESTION
SAYS THAT HE is GOING TO
BUILD UNLESS SOME ONE GETS
BUSY, AND THAT AT ONCE.

"If the other hotel agitation had
not come up when it did" said Chas'
Fraley, this morning, there is no
doubt but what the hotel | contem-
plate building at the corner of Broad
way and A street, would be up as
high as the first story at this time"
when the other people began look
ing for site for their building, |
went to them and told them, if they
would build on Broadway, l would not
do so and would take stock in their
enterprise to the amount of not
less than $1,000, with this understands
ing | got out of the way although |
had and still have the plans and speci-
fications for the building and have
the proposition financed, in order to
give the other people chance to get
into the game and build a bigger ho-
tel perhaps than | contemplated erect
ing But from what l am able to
learn, they are doing nothing, and l
guess it is going to be up to me to
build that hotel after all"
Mr.. Fraleys' plans have been in the
hands of the architect for some time
and call for a magnificent hotel of 100
rooms, with every modern convent
ence convenient for the travelling pub
lie. and unless something is done by
those who would build hotel and
have been negotiating to this end for
some time, Mr.. Fraley states that he
is going to begin operations and when
he does, the people of this city know

THE ADvENTURER'S
OCCUPA ALTON GONE
MOVING PICTURE MEN WORK
WITHOUT PAY AND PROFESS
SIONAL GUNNER is LEFT.

Mexico City, March 36.-The bot
tom has fallen out of business for
American adyenturers along the bor-
der. Tracy Richardson, one of the
star machine-gun men in the Mexican
revolution, developed this fact with
great care and regret in a conversa-
ton with the staff correspondent OF
the United Press.
The games played out along the
border" said Richardson, who has
fought under Villa, Salazar and Oroz-
co, at different times "In the early
days of the Orozco revolution against
Madero, I got $1,OO Ga week 1t was
when Orozco looked like a winner
and some big American concerns We're
putting a lot Of money into his cause,
hoping that he would make so much
trouble that the United States would
have to wave the stars and stripes
over Mexico But, at the end of three
weeks, Oro2co had been licked three
times by Maderos' soldiers and my
fine wages stopped. l have run ma
chine guns in more South American
revolutions than | care to tell about,
but that was the highest salary | ey-
er got
To-day there are 1000 young fel-
lows along the Rio Grande who are
crazy to handle machine guns for
either side of the revolution. They
don't want any wages. All they seek
is glory, adventure and plenty to eat.
It's the money we professional reyo-
lutionists are after. It's the moving
pictures and two or three magazines
Of adventure that have killed our
game. They make those young fellows
want to do desperate things.
"And what's more" continued Rich
ardson, with regret, those MeXicans
have been fighting for about three
years, and they've developed some fine
machine-gun men among themselves" ."
How many men have you killed.
YVES asked. "I'ye never killed a man
in my life" he answered. That's the
answer these professional machine
gun men always give. More than one
American war correspondent has seen
Richardson sitting at his machine gun
breaking up the formation" of the
enemy, with a rain of 300 bullets a
minute. But, breaking up forma-
ton" is what Richardson calls it; you
couldn't get him to admit that one Of
the men who fell under his deathrain
had been killed by him.

ability mer ms much active work in
that section Of the field 1t is stated
that the gas people paid $4,000 for
the rights. The Diamond Oil Co. who
made the sale, it is stated, will also
do drilling. The contract between
the companies, as we are informed,
provides that all wells that bear oil
are to be paid for and owned by tn
Diamond Co., and all that produce
gas are to be paid for and owned by
the gas people. There is a probability
that a pipe line will be built from Lo-
co to Texas, where a market for the
gas will be found.

Talk.

Talk is the cehapest thing in the
world. And some times it is the most
expensive thing to some people.
The only time to talk is when you
have something important to say. The
best time to keep quiet is when you
have something important in your
brain that no one but yourself should
know.
Recently, two men met in a promi-
nent New York hotel One became
very talkatiye and told his mission
here in this country and what he was
going to do. The other man kept
still. 1t developed that both these
men represented great houses in COM
petition on a big job that involved
thousands of dollars. The silent man,
having had revealed the moves of his
competitor, went and closed the or
der.
Never talk to stranger-eXceptinS
perhaps in a friendly manner to take
sides with him as to the condition OF
the weather. That's always a safe top
ic.
Talk to benefit or to amuse or to
convince. But learn to keep your own
counsel and your own ideas. Get the
habit of talgling-silently-to your
self

sand at 700 feet, The production is

gans cannot readily be brought back
to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused IN any way, serious results are
sur to follow. According to health
statistics, Bright's disease which is
really an advanced form of kidney
trouble, caused nearly ten thousand
deaths i'll 1913, in the State of New
