Reporting increased enthusiasm for good roads in all sections visited, State Engineer Lamar Cobb returned yestreday from a trip over the east ern leg of the Borderland highway, and a visit to the road work in Greenlee county.
 Work on the road between Clifton and Morenci is now going forward, and construction of the stretch re- guired to complete the Clifton Dun can road will begin in the near fu ture,' said the state engineer yes terday Tt is quite possible that Greenlee county may decide to use the apportionment from the state road funds in building the Solomon vile road and work on that section may he started this summer

RANCH HAND ARRESTED
 ALLOWED HIS LIBERTY
 AND LOCKED UP AGAIN

Arthur Strait, farm hand em- ployed on ranch near Scottsdale was arrested, set free and told to go back to work again, and then arrest ed again all within a short space of time yesterday.
 Sheriff Adams was responsible for the first arrest of Strait early yester- day morning. While walking along West Washington in the neighbor- hood of an auction house the sheriff's suspicious were aroused by a man within who was evidently very anxious to dispose of a quantity of tools. No good reason for having the l tools in his possession could be put forth by Strait and the sheriff brought him along to jail, to await GeVeloum. ntS.
 Things soon developed. An irate
 rancher named White. got busy with | the phone and told the sheriff's of flee long tale of woe about having one perfectly good ranch hand walk away, from the ranch bearing most everything moveable and carryable with him. He gave an accurate description of the missing articles,
 including the ranch hand. This coin
 cided with the man in custody and the confiscated articles.
 White was soon on the ground. When taken to the court of Justice of the Peace DeSouza, White showed symptoms of repentance, ana begged to be allowed to go back to work again. White his employer agreed, thinking that strait had had his les son and was not liable to commit the folly of decamping with most ev erything that wasn't his again The judge agreed to this and told Strait to go back to work.
 The two men left the justice court and agreed to meet at the sheriffs office for the return trip to Scotts- dae. While loafing around the of 1 flee the officials became engaged in conversation with him, and again their suspicious were aroused. Back records and descriptions were looked up ana it was soon established that Strait was wanted here in cOnnectiCn with one or two other burglaries. The specific charge of stealing q wheel was lodged against him and he was sent back to tn jail, to be arraigned on the new charge in q day or so.

home that morning Send for the
doctor to make sure that your child
IS not suffering from any one of the
contagious diseases. Who knows but
the persistent coughing. sneezing and
watering of the eyes may be the first
signs of an attack of measles? The
Group cough and sore throat may be
the beginning of diphtheria, or the
vomiting and rash may be the signs
of scarlet fever.
Take no chances. By sending your
child to school when he shows such
signs of illness you not only place
your own child's life in danger but al
so endanger the life and health of
hundreds of other children. What
would you think of the mother who
would send her child, sick with scar

your child attends? What should YOU
think of that mother if your child
should get the disease and die of it 4?
