School Notes

MT. G.. A. Steepleton, physical di- rector of the Tucson Y. M. c. A. ad- dressed the students Tuesday morn ing on the tpoic Little Things" :" MT. Steepleton is an excellent speaker and the students enjoyed his talk very much. They are looking for ward to hearing him again. This is one of number of talks to the stu dent body which we hope to have given during the year.
 The students by an unanimous vote authorized the committee who Lad charge of the parade last Fri day, to extend thanks to those citi- zens of our city who aided in that parade. It is gratifying that we have such assistance in the student activities.
 The first fire drill was held Tues day afternoon. The building was emptied ir. but @ few seconds. Such drills will be given at intervals dur ing the school year and the pupils will soon learn what is expected of them in case of fire.
 A reception for the parents of the high school students was given by the teachers Friday evening. About two thirds of the families were repre- sented and the evening proved bene- ficial to all. A short program con- sisting of talks by MT. Steepleton, of the Tucson Y. M. c. A., MT. Ris- don, MT. Curtis, and Supt Davis and Miss Tessier, Weill, Rabenowitz, McDowell, Moves, Hill, MT. Rabeno- witz and Mrs. Davis were given and enjoyed by all. It is hoped that the parents and teachers can meet often during the year thus bringing about real cooperation between them there by securing better work on the part of the students and a greater appre- citation Of the meaning of true edu- cation.
 The work of the high school con- tlnues to improve. This is due to the hearty cooperation of the par ents teachers and students and the loc.l school spirit that is manifested | by all rarties concerned. Our desire is not to have good high school but the best in the state We should, If not, why not?

Hunters Return

Hunters Return
 Frank Laverty, Barney Cranberry and M. s. Harrison returned the first of the week fom a two weeks hunting trip in the Black river coun- try. The boys report that they found game in abundance and brought home several specimens as proof. Scout Laverty denies the report that the party was lost in the hills al though he admits that the landmarks were somewhat mixed in his recol- lection since his last visit to that country. We accept the concession and hasten to retract any damaging assertions heretofore made, although we could name some persons who we are under the impression are eli gible to the Ananias Club.

PROCLAMATION OF FATHERS
 DAY.
Executive Department, State of Arizona.

That reverence for ones parents which from the earliest times down to the present day has been recog- nized as the cornerstone of govern ment and of social stability, has consistently characterized the Ameri- can people and led to special observ- ances of various kinds tending to fos- ter holy and reverential love, for both mother and father in the hearts and minds of each oncoming genera tion.
 Just as the sacred image of ones mother fingers ineffaceably in mem ory through long years after her de- parture into the great unknowable be- yond, so in different but withal equally vital way, the ineffable i'm press of fatherly devotion, wisdom and parental solicitude remains | throughout the years of after life a bulwark against temptation, con stant reminder of filial duty, and, an ideal of manhood to pe sustained through all adversities common to mortal existence.
 NOW, THEREFORE, I, Geo. W. P. Hunt, Governor of Arizona, by vir- tue of my official position, and in alive and promoted in the younger generations by the maintenance of exalted ideals of parenthood. do hereby earnestly recommend that on
 Sunday, the 24th day of October, A.
 |. 1915, the people of this State, by
 such ceremonies and other observ- ances as may be deemed suitable, in homes, churches and civic centers,
 where people ordinarily foregather, shall pay fitting tributes of love and
 veheration to fatherhood as spirit ual entity. and shall manifest all proper respect and devotion toward the memory of those noble fathers, who so conscientiously labored and strove to the end that posterity might enjoy the full fruition of their moral spiritual and material achievements. 1 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Ari- zona to be affixed.
 Done at the City of Phoenix, the Capital this 16th day of October, A. D. 1915.
