HOW RAILROAD CARS
 ARE CLEANED

In a report dealing with the migration of tuberculous per sons in interstate traffic re- gently issued by the United States Public Health Service, the manner of cleaning and disinfecting Pullman cars, mail and baggage cars, at Asheville, N. C., is described.
 When we consider the of persons who travel to and from health resorts the necessity of thorough cleansing of railroad cars be- comes evident. Not only is formaldehyde gas used as a diSinfectant, but soap and hot water are literally used as a means of mechanical cleansing. Dust is removed from the carpets, upholster- led seats and interior of the cars by means of compressed air which has been found to be the most efficient means for this purpose.
 Fresh air and sunlight, which are among the best dis infecting agents we have, are |also utilized as a further means of cleaning the blank cts, mattresses and curtains used in Pullman cars.
 In addition to the cleaning and disinfection of railroad coaches, the use of individual drinking cups, drinking wa ter of a required standard of purity, individual towels and dental lavatories are all fac tors which make travelling by railroad not only more agree able, but safer.
 The slogan Safety First applies not only to the pre- vention of accidents, but the prevention of disease.

THAT BARREL CHAIR

A woman there was, and she wrote for the press, as you or l might do. She told how to cut and sew a dress, and how to cook many a saw ory mess; but she never had done it herself, guess. but none of her readers knew. She told how to comb and dress the hair and how out of a barrel to make a chair twould adorn any parlor and give it an air-we thought the tale was true. Oh, the days we spent and the nights we spent, with hammer and saw and tack, in making the chair in which no one would sit, in which no one could possibly sit, without a crick in the back.

the opinion of attorney gen. eral Wiley Jones and will be delivered to the tax commits sion within a few days. Re- gently the question of the taxation of liquor was passed LID to the commission by C. E. Gentry, assessor of Yavapai county, who stated that a number of former saloon owners in Prescott held big stocks of intoXicantS which cost them thousands of dol lars. The commission in turn asked the attorney gen. eral for an opinion. Jones opinion will not end the con troversy by any means.
 How to collect taxes on liquor is a knotty problem, admitted assistant attorney general George w. Harben. "There is no question that liquor is personal property and has value, for real money was once paid for it. The fact that the state has adopt led a constitutional amend ment prohibiting it's sale, and that it has no legal marker value at this time, does not exempt it from taxation. It is still saleable outside the state.
 Should any owner of the liquor refuse to pay taxes on his spirits the state possible could siege them and sell 'em outside of the state. That this can be done 1 am not prepared to state positively, however, and that question
 will not be dealt with in the opinion shortly to be issued from this office"

ID CELEBRATE H|eH
 WATER AT ROOSEVELT

Giant machinery, each piece weigh ing several tons, is in Phoenix ready TO be hauled to the Roosevelt Dam to e r plete the pOwor plant. To get tha machinery oyer the road an advarce guard has gone ahead, strengthening bridges and culverts.
 The road, over sixty miles long, winds through the Superstition noun tains, and is located in the midst of splendid scenery. Nowhere else in the country is there such an intending series of magnificent views. The sur prises are without number and the road has been pronounced one of the finest in the world
 The power plant is operated by the water flowing from the great Roose- welt Reservoir The reservoir now holds over one million acre-feet of water. This will supply the Salt River valley for more than three years and on two hundred thousand acres crops can now be guaranteed. The water is held in reserve and used as required.
 Plans for celebrating the storing of this great body of water have been made by the citizens of the Salt river valley. Hundreds of automobiles will leave the valley on the 14th, and very early on the 18th of April The whole population is invited. The road will be patrolled signs put in position, and at the Dam coffee will be served to all. Each auto party is expected to carry it's own lunch. The occasion is one of national importance as the Vice President of the United States, the Hon. Thomas R. Marshall will be pre- sent on the occasion.

SCHOOL MA'AMS AND
 MATRIMONY

A question which is now agitating several cities and towns in this country may be viewed from different sides and angles: Shall married women teach in the schools 7 In New York, matrimony ter inmates the relation of a woman with the schools, the theory evidently being that a woman who has become the presiding genius of home through marriage is neces- sarily afflicted with such a distraction of attention that she can no longer cope with the perplexing problems of the school room. This dis traction becomes more mark ed, naturally, after maternity, and it was a case of maternity that precipitated the agita- ton of this matter in the schools of New York City.
 That matrimony impairS the usefulness of many WOm- en teachers is no doubt true, perhaps, in a majority ot cases, but certainly not in all cases. Some women regard teaching as a profession, a life work, and marriage as an incident. They look upon the home they have acquired as no less than a sanctuary than it appears to women who ex- pect to remain in it all the time. If these views of the case were all that might be considered, we should say that there ought to be no hard and fast rule barring married women as teachers. If they have lost none of their efficiency by marriage, they should be retained, but if the new relation should result in distraction from their school duties they should be dismiss ed. Each case should be dealt with separately by the school boards.

COMPLETION OF PLANK ROAD
 OVER SAND HILLS PLEASES

the fact that the committee still has money left in the treasury, although only about $3,OOO was on hand at the start The $6,6O0 appropriated by the county, which is to be available as soon as the state refunds to the coun- ty the amount appropriated years ago for the Yuma bridge, has not yet been touched. Boyd hopes that this money can be used to complete the work on the road and keep it in shape for the next two years.
 By the time this fund is exhausted it is expected that the appropriation of $100,00O, which seems now assured from the state for the road, will be available, to pu4 fn concrete bed over the greater part of the distance.
 All the credit for the road is unani- mously given to Boyd by friends and those who have joined him in the big fight to get the road through. For
 
 tirelessly, most of the time in the face of strong opposition to get his dream for an eastern outlet for the Imperial Valley realized. During that time, it is estimated, he has actually spent between $2,OO0 and $3,OOO of his own money on the road. Besides that he has worn out two automobiles on it and put in many days that might have turned to good private profit for him.
 Some day it is probable the people of Imperial Valley will build a monu- ment to Ed Boyd to keep everlastingly fresh the memory of the man who dreamed and fought for his dream for Imperial valley. This was suggested to Boyd the other day. He doesn't expect it, however. He said he is sat isfied with having the road through so that people can use it -Holtville Tribune.

Ed Boyd, general manager of the Holtville- Yuma road and the most self-sacrificing g road booster Holtville ever had, is bordering today in a happiness that is half joy in achievement and half unrest because he has worked him self temporarily out of a big boosting job.
 The plank road to Yuma is finished. The road is now in shape for all kinds of auto- mobiles and rigs to go over it. The last party of volunteer workmen, after completing the work of mailing down the plans, came in Tuesday from the sandhills.
 Discussing the completion of the road happily this morning, Boyd ad- mitted that good deal of the work remains yet to be done on it, but he declared that it is in passable shape and that the dangerous points have been practically removed from it.
 About a mile of road on the eastern side of the sandhills before it is in first class shape will have to be cov- cred with clay and brush Perhaps one-third of the distance between Holtville and the sandhills will even tually have to be patched up with a clay and brush surface. All the ma. terials needed for the work is on hand, however. There is a patch of clay on each side of the sandhills that may be easily hauled and distributed over the road. A feature of the construction of the road especially pleasing to Boyd is

RICH GIRL OOES'T
 WANT ANY GUARDIAN

Special to the Yuma Daily Examiner
 REDWOOD CITY, Cal, April G. At hearing in the superior court to- day Judge George H. Buck listened to further testimony in an effort to ar rive at solution of the problem as 70 whether Miss Frances Howard, wealthy society girl and descendant of the famous Howard family of BoS ton, is capable of looking after her own affairs. The court proceedings resulted from an application made by Miss Towards mother to have a guar dian appointed fer her daughter.
 According to Mrs. Howard and oth- CT members of her family, Miss How ard at times has seemed to act little queer" and has entertained ideas that are regarded as rather unconventional social station. At a previous hearing Kenneth Howard a Yale student and brother of the defendant, declared that his sister had frequently expressed fixed ideas of motherhood He said that Miss Howard had said that when a woman is in sound health she should bear children whether married or single.
 Miss Howard. in her own behalf. says she does not understand why the proceedings have been brought. She declares that her life has always been happy and contented one, and that if her views on certain subjects are not in accord with those of the ma- jority it does not follow that she is not perfectly capable of handling her own financial affairs.
