One advantage of being president
is that you get the turkey free.

Some people have family trees,

Everything seems to point to very
lugubrious Christmas for bad-egg

In olden days we enjoyed country
sausage, now we put it in a glass

If somebody would only start a

we might savel
The summer is considered the silly
season, but what about the New
Year Resolutions
This is Ladies' YearEJeannette
gets to congress, Ruth breaks air rec
ord, and Liberty is lit upl
The agitation or a 21a cent piece is
not permanent. What we want is
smaller prices not smaller money.
There is only letters difference
between "yours" and tours" but less
than that stands between the food
buccaneers and the peoples purse.
Taking something, "just as good"
isn't only an American trait. Kaiser
Bill couldn't get Paris, so he went to
Brussels; he couldn't make Petro-
grad, so he is taking Bucharest.
To our untutored mind, June has
always been associated with mar
riage; but we are considerably per-
turbed to learn that it holds the rec
ord for the suicide month.

Danger Signals.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough. A cough is
a danger signal as much as a fire bell.
You should no more try to suppress
it than to stop a fire bell when it is
ringing but should cure the disease
that causes the coughing. This can
nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlafn's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial
results. 1t is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often
follows a bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An
drews, Ind, writes: During the win
ter my husband takes cold easily and
coughs and coughs. Chamberlain
Cough Remedy is the best medicine
for breaking up these attacks and
you cannot get him to take any

Practically the same ratio obtains for
the rline-lnon h period ending September
80, of the two years with few exceptions
foreign takings of food staples showed a
great decrease in 1916.
Could more striking proof of the fallacy
of food embargo be asked?
The United States has made several dis
astrous experiments in embargoes. Com
menting on the embargo of 1807-which is
typical of them all-the historian, McMas-
ter, has this to say:
To form accurate conception of the enormous
n os pogn on h not Pg9Ps the from

ample OF an lcreased pr [ lowing de-
creased demand, embargo agitators would
have a hard time winning converts to a
theory viii, n entails such iu~al, ulable and
national loss.
The cause is entirely domestic, and the
remedy must be domestic A household en-
barge on certain food products for which
extortionate prices are demanded-such is
urged on all American housewives by the
National Housewives League, of New
York, and is endorsed by the wholesale and
retail dealers, who are as much the victims
of the spectators as the ultimate consumer,
will give temporary relief until the govern
ment can protect the nation from the de-
signs of such robber barons as Wetz, of
Chicago, who is creating an artificial famine
in eggs in order to force-not Europeans,
but Americans, to pay.

DECREASING DEMAND, INCREAS-
ING PRICE

Packers, produce dealers and warehouse
living on the increasing war exports, and
the people, not knowing any better, have
believed The facts, however, prove that
foreign shipments have nothing to do with
domestic extortion.
Oscar P. Martin, stastieian of the foreign
trade department of the National City
Bank of New York, who has made special
study of exports, has compiled figures
proving that shipments are considerably
less this year than last.
Exports of various staples from the
United States for September, 1916, are
given as follows:

VOCATIONAL TRAINING.

Eliot H. Goodwin secretary OF the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States. hits the nail on the head when he
says:
Competition in business is becoming
keener, success is requiring greater de-
gree Of knowledge, breadth and ability.
The development of foreign trade has
brought the American merchant in touch
with foreign competition, and the lessons
thus learned as to new methods of doing
business have been reflected at home
Which they have, in greater stimulus Of
vocational training.
How extraordinary, but how true, that
business is the only great occupation
Except farming) which man can and
does enter without any special preparation.
To be an architect, lawyer, engineer, ply
sician, stonemason, carpenter, or motor
man, requires certain amount of prepare
tion-but business! Employment statistics
show that only about one man in seven
is efficient III other words, seven men have
to be hired for given job before one can
be found capable of holding it down. Null
tiply the entire United States by this factor
and you will get some idea of the economic
loss due to the absence of vocational
training.
In response to the modern demand of
business for exact knowledge, number of
our universities have established especial
schools of commerce and administration for
students who plan to make professional
careers in business. To such as are able
to avail themselves of the opportunity, these
courses offer a valuable training but IS
per cent of our boys and girls quit school
before they were sixteen years old
OF course there are the correspondence
schools, which are doing great work; but
need that is making Itself more and more
keenly felt is that our high schools increase
the amount of vocational study. That is
necessary, not only to give more adequate
preparation for our college commercial
courses, which are becoming more yoca-
tional and technical, but in order that the
tremendous majority who can not have the
advantage of a college training NAV be
equipped for the battle of life. Business or
ganization and practices, salesmanship and
advertising are the next subjects to be
recognized in the high school curriculum
the idea being to prepare for managerial
and not clerical positions For the benefit
OF those who have their eye on foreign
telds, language should also be added.
The European cataclysm has thrown the
world at our feet; that we have already had
such bitter failures, notably in Latin Amer.
'ca, should show us how inadequate our
present commercial education is, and urge
us to a greater vocational preparedness.

 ARE BEING FL0ATED
Los Angeles Mining Man Dis approves Majority of Prop critics, but Says Ray Dis trict Has Bright Future.

w. G. Quinn, mining man from Los Angeles, who recently arrived in Bis bee from a tour of the mining camps of the state, has found, he says, that there are a lot of new f1y-by-night min ing companies in Arizona, whose stock certificates might serve well as wall never. Quinn asks the same question other conservative mining men are now beginning to ask-"How do they get by with it?"
 On the other hand, Quinn was fiber al in his praise of several properties both in Jerome and the Ray district, the latter coming to the front, he says, with magnificent tonnage.
 There are some new properties in the Ray field whose light cannot much Quinn. "The Gila Canon property, fer instance, which is now raising money on the public market for a mill, is what I call a self starter, that is, it is paying its way as it goes-is shipping fifteen to twenty carloads of ore month ly now, and has hundreds of feet or commercial ore in sight"
 The property now has some of the big mining men of the state among its stockholders, including mining en- gineers of the big properties adjoin- ing it at Ray. The holders are now selling enough stock to install a mill and concentrator to work ores already in sight
 It was reported one of the company's agents passed through BisOee last night enroute to Fl PasO to close a deal for a considerable chunk of the stock.

The flotation of the 100000 shares at 75 cents, which Is now on the market, promises to be oversubscribed before the books of the new corporation are closed.
 This property consists of thirty five claims, consisting of four groups and containing some Of the best looking ground in the district It is situated directly next to the Coronado mine or the Arizona Copper company and also next to property of the Detroit Copper company, a Phelps, Dodge subsidiary, on both of which properties immense tonnages of copper ore have been de veloped.
 Engineers have investigated the merits ot thlS group ot the |. ID. EN- tension, particularly, and predict that ore in great quantities will be found on or about the 800 level of the mine. Much development work has been done on the property. A shaft has been sunk to the 300 level and excellent showings of ore have already been en- countered. Leasers have taken out high grade ore on several occasions. The shaft at the present time is un- der water.
