A PROCLAMATION OF THANKS S-
 GIVING.
Executive Department, State of Ari
 Zona

Since that memorable day in Ameri- ca'S history when our ancestors fore gathered on the bleak shores of New England and there proclaimed their gratitude in unison to Almighty God f T all those blessings providentially bestowed upon them, it has been tho custom of the American people to set apart annually day for the rendering of thanks to the Creator in fitting. re- cognition of divine mercies and bene- facticns. This custom, universally approved, is properly perpetuated in the state of Arizona and observance thereof is commanded by law.
 It is particularly seemly that Ari- zona's citizens should celebrate, in the present year, the annual day of Thanksgiving, for harvests have been bountiful, and the pursuits of industry have been fruitful beyond compare. In other ways, also, than those of merely material benefit the people of the state have been abundantly and providentially favored.
 NOW, THEREFORE I, Geo. w. P. Hunt, Governor of Arizona, by vir- tue of the authority in me vested, do proclaim and set aside Thursday, No vember 30th, 1916, as Thanksgiving Day. It is urgently recommended that on the day thus set apart, all the people of Arizona shall unite in giving reverent thanks to God for the peace and prosperity which abide within our state, and for that faith in the under lying purpose of divinity which DOT tends the ultimate salvation of human ity.
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed.
 Done at Phoenix, the capital, this 24th day of November, A. D., 1916. (SeaD GEO. w. P. HUNT,

|CELLULO|D USED | 10 DRESS WOUNDS
London Surgeons Claim ie Has Great Advantages
 Over Use of Gauge
By Hop

London, October N.-(Correspondence or
 the Associated Press. )-Opinion among
 surgeons and nurses Is practically unanl-
 nous in favor of the advantages of
 new method of dressing large and pain
 ful wounds, whereby thin layer ot
 perforated celluloid is substituted for lint
 as the first covering for the raw wound
 The plan was tried successfully first by
 Sir Allmoth Wright at St Mary's hos
 pital, Paddington, and now promises t9
 become generally adopted.
 The celluloid, first rendered soft and pliable by being soaked in 20 per cent solution of carbolic acid and then washed in a weak salt solution, is laid on the raw wound, the perforations being so numerous that it seems mostly holes. Fine lint soaked in a 5 per cent solution of common salt in sterile water is then placed over the celuloid, after which firm bandages are applied. Owing to the celluloid much firmer pressure can be used than with ordinary dressings. One surgeon, explaining the advantages of the cellulod dressing further, said: In many cases the healing of large wound is actually retarded by the general bodily depression resulting from the pain caused in the dressing of it. Again, gauge band ages, when laid directly on the raw wound, must inevitably, in the process of removal, tear away from their site cey- tain of the tiny new cells which are formed by nature in affecting the cure.
 Every cell thus destroyed has to be re-
 made, and so healing is delayed"

writers are his warmest friends and CO., workers There seems to be spirit of unity in school matters that Is not always found in towns of this size. But theyg do not teach Webster's Blue Back here. They ought, for I saw sign today over a store where stationery is sold and 1t read stationary" and I know the fellow who painted that sign never studied the old ''blue back"
 The lumber industry is proving the salr vation of some parts or this county, and but for it I do not know what the peo- pie would do, for crops on the whole have been very disappointing with low cotton yields The people must get money from somewhere, for you have to hustle to keep out of the way of the automobiles and they have a garage here that would make Brownell Bros. sit up and take no- tice. One has only to travel over Ala bama to see what a race of joy riders we are. Such a thing as saving money for the inevitable rainy day seems never to have entered the heads of young Amer ica. I reckon they come by it honestly, however for have yet to find a munich pality, or county that is living within it's income and since our legislative leaders set the pace for the state I reckon the younger generation feel that they have license to follow. Just when the inevita- ble smash will come nobody can say, but that it will be hard and heavy when it does come is the opinion of
