4-HAsTE AND IMPATIENCE

The majority of people who use
the telephone are in a hurry. They
want to communicate quickly with
some one and the slightest delay
is likely to cause Impotence and
irritation. If busy man waits a
few seconds for a response from
the operator when he is using the
telephone in haste, these seconds
seem like minutes. If he is told
that the line is busy it is likely to
exasperate him. If telephone
users could see the operators at
work while they are calling, or if
they could see how many others
are to be served at the same time.
as in the case of bank or in a
store, the seconds that seem so
long would pass unnotieed.
Understand, however, our de-

SYNOPSIS.

The New York police are mystified by a
series of murders and other crimes. The
principal clue to the criminal is the warn
ing letter which is sent to the victims,
est victim of the mysterious assassin is
Taylor Dodge, the Insurance president.
His daughter, Elaine. employs Craig Ken
needy, the famous scientific detective, to
try to unravel the mystery. What Ken
nedy accomplishes is told by his friend
Jameson. a newspaper man. After many
fruitless attempts to put Elaine and Craig
Kennedy out of the way the Clutching
Hand is at last found to be none other
than Perry Bennett, Elaines lawyer and
the man she is engaged to marry. Ben

from Bennett the secret of the where

sire is to give efficient and reliable
service. But even a service that
has a high average of speed and
accuracy will appear slow to a
man or a woman who is in a hur-
ry. We simply ask that our SUBJ
scribers bear these things in mind
when they use the telephone. We,
are willing for any one to hold a
stop-watch and record the time of
any number of calls. The averagel
will show quick service, and it IS
the average that counts.
We want every subscriber to re-
ceive efficient service. That is
what we are in business for. If
the service you are receiving does
not appear to you to be efficient,
we want you to report it promptly
to the manager. We will see that
the fault is corrected.

vaudeville shows. The educational feature is neg lected and the entertainment show" feature magnfed. If this statement is doubted challeng- vertisement or announcements of almost any of the Chautaquas held in the past five ten years The fault lies, with the local arrangements, but wholly with the lyceum and lecture bureaus which furnish the programs The patrons of the Chauta- quas would welcome return to the original idea
 The Chautauquas should be the peoples universities
 The patrons should be given the opportunity of hearing what the great thinkers and leaders have say upon the live subjects under discussion by the American people. The forum should be thrown open to debate, for thing. By discus sion arrive at the truth. There is plenty of talent to be had to present both sides of any ques tion And there surely is interest enough in the many problems of the day to insure greater crowds at the gate Imagine the drawing power of joint debates upon such subjects "Unionism
 the Open Shop" Should Women Voter" So cialsm Democracy" Prohibition Religion" Armament or Peace Treaties," High Tariff vs. Low Tariff,' and down the great list, with real, recognized national state even local authorities to present each side fairly. A man or woman who attended a Chautauquas where such subjects were discussed would go home at the end of the week with the feeling that the time had been well spent. Of there would have to be entertainment features and plenty of good music but the educational aspect of the program should be made secondary to entertainment.

Nothing that has developed in the European war has stirred Col Roosevelt to such indignation as the violation by Germany of the neutral terri tory of Belgium He has written and spoken ire quently on this subject, always blaming the Ad- rninistpation at Washington for not instantly tering a protest, and sometimes suggesting that the remonstrance should have been accom- panied by shot and she'll

PRESCOTT GIRL TO CHMSTEN
 "ARIZONA,

To Miss Esther Ross, native of Ari- zona, and daughter of the city of Prescott, will do the honor of chris tening the battleship Arizona" when that monster of the dep slides, from the ways in the Brooklyn navy yard on the 18th of June, this year.
 The appointment of Miss Ross was announced last week by Governor Hunt, but not before the executive had considered the claims of fair daughters of every part of the state. There will be disappointment in many places because favorite daughters did not receive the honor, but there will be no one to say that the governor did not choose both wisely and well.
 Miss Ross is a typical representa- tive of Arizona's younger generation of women who will gradually fill the places left vacant in the ranks of the rapidly disappearing band of noble pioneer women. She was seventeen years old on November g, 1914, and has lived all her life in the mile high city of Prescott, breathing in with it's incomparable air, ideals of patriotism and loyalty to home and state so characteristic of mountain people
 She has attended the public schools of Prescott from the kindergarten to high school with the exception of one year spent at the Kentucky College for Women in Danville, Ky. Her fa- ther a native son of California is a pioneer of Arizona, having gone to Tombstone in 1880 and later to Pres colt. Her mother, a native of Ken lucky, has resided in Prescott for twenty-three years, having come west as a bride in 1892. Miss Ross is of inches in height She is of decided

ly petite type, with blue eyes, light brown hair and vivacious manners. She has an elder brother, who is at present midshipman at the Naval Academy at Annapolis.
 A committee of about fifty leading citizens from all parts of Arizona has ben appointed by Governor Hunt to attend the launching of the Arizona" |" and it is now planned to organize special train to run from Phoenix to New York, bearing Miss Ross, the members of the official committee and any other citizens of Arizona who de- sire to be present when the dread naught is launched.
 We wish at this time to congratu- late both Miss Ross and the people of Arizona upon her appointment to stand sponsor for the battleship. We know that every resident of the state will be proud c; the Arizona" and we are certain that everyone will be equally proud of the beautiful little lady from the northern hills who will christen it.-Dunbar's Weekly.

Editorial Opinion
LITTLE HOPE FOR GOOD
RESULTS,

Members of the second legislature are already arriving in Phoenix where the extra session will convene on Friday, according to the call of Gov ernor Hunt. As the clans gather there is no sign given out indicat- ing that there has ben any change in the conditions from those prevail ing when the legislature adjourned over a month ago. The factional fighting in the house was so uncalled for that no one has hope that there may be improvement in that body now. Those house members under the control of the governor and the state administration forces, simply re- fused to support any measure that would change the present one-man control of the state. There can be no improvement in the present state government so long as the methods and the present men are continued. - International.

HELP THE PIONEERS.

tile Indians and wrenched the terri organization that should at all times have the hearty support ofo not only the state, but of all classes of inhabi- tants of Arizona. This society is composed of members who reached Arizona prior to the year 1870. A re- cent amendment to the bylaws of the organization opens the door to all who have resided in the state for 30 years. It was the pioneers who first discovered the great resources of this land of historic wonder and sunshine and let it be known to the world the opportunities here for Moth energy and capital; it was the pioneers who fought and subdued the Apache hos tile Indians and wreched the terri tory from their domination; it was the pioneers who dug the first irri- gation ditches and constructed brush dams along the Gila, Salt and San Pedro rivers and thus brought land under irrigation where the crops were demanded by the military gar risons here guarding these pioneers from the skulking and warning In dians.
 These old pioneers are now asking the coming session of the legislature for an appropriation to help them Fcare for relics and historical news papers, books, etc., to supply their office with some decent furniture, buy la typewriter and have their head quarters made attractive. This re- quest of the pioneers for $2,500 should be granted without moments hesitation on the part of any member of the legislature. We should see that the amount asked should be in creased at least by $500. It may be accepted without guarantee that not one cent will be wasted by these men who are showing pride in preserving the history of Ariona for future gen- erations. Some of them may have been wasteful and rolicking when they first arrived here, but they are beyond the age now.

A MESSAGE FROM LINCOLN.

During of the darkest and most difficult per iods of the Civil War volunteer committee called at the White House to express it's dissatisfaction with various omissions of the Administration.
 To the complaints of this committee President Lincoln replied:
 sGentlemen suppose all the property you were worth was in gold and you had put it in the hands of Blondin, to carry the Niagara River on a rope. Would you shake the cable or keep shouting to him. 'tBlondin. s stand up a little straighter- -Blondin, stoop a s> little more-go little fasterllean a little more to the north-lean little more to the south? No; you would hold your breath as well as your tongue, and keep your hands off until he was safe over. The government is carrying an enormous weight. Untold treas Y ures are in their hands, they doing the best they can. Don't badger them. Keep silence and we will get yu safe across"
 What Lincoln said then applies with equal force to the present situation. 'The Government is carryin an enormous weight-the heaviest weight that any President Administration has carried since the Civil War.
 The issue of peace or far as the United States is concerned, may depend upon the loyalty and patriotism with which the American people sustain their President and their Government Don't badger them!"
 It was fifty years ago today that Abraham carry a message Of supreme wisdom to the Amer ican people Let them heed it. Let them abide by his counsel.

The past has been difficult, he pointed out but the future will be more difficult. The neutrality of the United States ne said had higher basis than the petty desire to keep put of trouble.
