SCHOOL TIME AGAIN.

SSnO0I lime again.
AS is well known in this part of
Arizona, Morenci is made up of a
combination of people from all parts
of the United States and is conceded
to be at the front and doing her
share of making life worth living.
Among the variety of men from all
walks of life, from the mucker to
the owner of an oil field, a few with
a ungleistic" turn of mind are also
in evidence. We have had handed
to us this week, the following cloud
of steam that escaped from the boil
ing pot of love, devotion and appre-
citation, with due apology to the real
art of poverty:
Awake, We SWANS, and rouse We from
your lethargy!
The teachers soon will be with US
again;
Put on your broadcast smile; resort to
strategy:
1t may be up to you at any time to
meet the train.
Even now, those who have 'tsteadies"
are expecting
A telegram saying 'I'Tl be home to-
night;
Meet me at Guthrie if you cau-the
dust is awful,
And o. K, my gracious! Lordsburg
is a fright"
Those of us who are merely catch
as catch can's,''
And cannot get a girl for every show
And even have to stag it at the dan
ces,
Well, still we're interested just the
same, yolI know.
Since Blick and A1brecht, Pansing
and McMillen
Have Joined the benedicts, and there
fore stepped aside,
We should wake up and get a hustle
on us,
And not allow it to be said we never
tried.
Come on dear teachers, here's well
come for you,
Whether you're among the old or of
the new,
And when the seasons over, and you
leave US,
You will not have a chance to say we
were not true.-J. v. P.

WASN'T THE ONLY CAUSE
Roper Says Burkitt's Statement Was
Only One of Many Reasons Which
Brought His Dismissal.

Charges made in the Chicago Tribune

after six years service because he made
a remark that President Wilson should

erroneous yesterday by First Assistant
Postmaster General Daniel c. Roper.
Il recall the case of Mr.. Burkitt,
said Mr.. Roper. II cannot remem-
Der enough about the correspondence,
though, to attempt a statement
would have to consult the letters which
have at my office.
1T is true. however. that the re-
mark which Mr.. BuTkitt claimed
caused his dismissal was one of a
series OF incidents which led to his re-
moval from the service"
Mr.. Roper. according to the Tribune
story. had been appealed to by Mr.
Burkitt after his dismissal on the
charge of "disloyalty." Among the let
tiers printed was one by A ". Kloepfer
postmaster at Winnetka, which fol-
lows:
This is TO advise you that you are
! this day removed from the service OF
the government and from your posi-
ton as assistant postmaster of this Of

making her way out.
"Fifty-hvep madame called, follow

But how does she get all those
imported gowns" evaded Helen.
Haven't you seen those ads. viii
call for ladies' slightly worn gowns ?
And she sends out cards to all the
society women. They sell them
through their maids. Oh, it's a reg
Mar business" Then, as they turned
the corner, "I'd better take this sur

roar OF the rushing train drowned

"Laura?" he demanded when they
left the subway at their station.

ooh, no, that failed two weeks ago.
Now she's back again working in the

BIG FIGHT TO COME
ON PHILIPPINE BILL
Legislative Leader Says 1t May Pass
House. but Bitter Struggle Will
Be Waged in Senate.

The definite announcement from the
White House that the Jones Philippine
independence bill would be embodied In
the legislative program OF the admins
tration for the next session Of Congress
has resulted in a quiet investigation by
some Congressional leaders as to the out
look for the enactment of this measure.
The result OF this Investigation has con-
WINGED many members of Congress that
the Jones bill canot be passed without
serious legislative struggle.
The leader expressed the opinion that
the chances for passing the Jones bill
would be diminished In proportion to the
extent to which sentiment for bigger
army and navy accumulated. Congress
cannot enter upon an era of army and
navy expansion without in a measure
yielding to militaristic sentiment, said
this leader. land II is an axiom of mill
taristic sentiment that colonial posses
sion ought to be retained wherever pos
sible"
This leader expressed the opinion
that the administration, would ind II
practicable to force the Jones bill
through the House after caucus action.
but he thought the chief difficulty
would be encountered in the Senate,
and predicted that IL the measure
finally Is enacted at the next session
OF Congress this will be accomplished
only after a long and bitter debate in
the upper chamber. The Jones bill. as
II was amended at the last session Of
Congress and as II will be pressed at
this session. does not attempt to set a
specific date for the United States to
withdraw from control OF the Islands,
but merely pledges this government TO
recognize tie sovereignty OF the is
lands "sInce stable government can be
established therein"
