G0OD ROADS T0
 bE THEME FUR GREAT MEETING

Engineering problems and methods to be employed in effecting a bond issue to defray the expense of constructing 100 miles of concrete roads in Maricopa county will be discussed at a big good roads mass meeting at the Water Us- CTS building tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock.
 We want to see represented in this meeting every person or firm interested in good roads," said Secretary Clay Parker last night, and we believe this includes every resident of the district.
 "Hooverizing and conservation are so ineXtricably related to the economy or providing better thoroughfares that It becomes us to support such move ment not alone for our own material interests but for patriotic reasons.
 MT. Parker declares that the com mittee of which he is the secretary has been working on the bond issue prob- lem for the past three weeks and is pre- pared to give out some interesting in- formation relative to the progress maue thus far at the meeting tomorrow.
 At the request of the Good Roads committee the board of supervisors yes terday made an investigation Of loca- tions of the proposed improvements which are to be paid for from the pro- ceeds of the sale of bonds.
 On the committee are J. E. Cook, chairman; Dr. A. J. Chandler, Warren McArthur, Lynn B. Orme. J. P. Conduit and Clay Parker, secretary. According to the announcement of Mr. Parker last evening several talks will be made by special speakers ob- tained for the occasion.
 It is felt by those who are boosting the proposed improvement that special stress should be laid on the great sav- ing which could be realized by the min- eral and agricultural interests through the introduction of improved transpor- tation facilities.

Answers for All Allies.

Washington, Aug. 29.-President
Wilson's rejection Of the popes peace
proposals is regarded here as the high
water mark Of the war. Furthermore,
it is indicative of the virtual selection
of the President by the Allies as their
spokesman before the world.
The note comes as climax to the
remarkable series Of state documents
in which President Wilson has argued
the cause of world democracy against
autocracy in the high court Of public
opinion and accepted more and more
by the people of all the allied coun-
tries as expressing their ideals.
There appears to be no doubt that
the United States was selected to
make answer before the world, in ad-
vance Of all the others. Whether the
Entente nations will send extensive re-
plies is not known here. 1t is regard
ed as probable that they will in large
measure adopt the Presidents reason
ing for their own and send notes Of
Endorsement.

TAR out in southern seas, a thou
II sand miles from Montevideo and
several hundred miles eastward
from the "land of fire." TERRA
del Fuego, lie the lonely, dreary,
barren Falkland islands. Ceaseless
surges from Antarctic wastes dash
upon the rocky headlands to the dis
turbance of only the wild and stately
penguin; the mighty roar of the
breakers wasting their beauty, far
from the haunts of artist or photOg-
rapher, is lost in the dismal fog.
A land far away from the busy
world; a land without tree, without

overcast, producing annually $50 days
of cloudy or rainy weather.
Despite weather conditions, how
ever, the Falklands present interest

periences not met with elsewhere,
writes William A. Reid in the Los An

Idleness Makes a Fortune.

"If you sit idly you will lose money

but the Tokyo Herald cites the case of

despite inaction, is reaplng fortune.
During the year ending June 25 the
Buddha received 351, 900 visitors, who
paid admission fees aggregating $0,350.

Buddha began in 1911, since which
time $127,5 gate money has been re-

above the ground. The broWnish ap-
pearance of the landscape is uninvit-
ing but when the undulating hills and
valleys are reached the travellers in
terest quickens and he beholds the
sheep upon a thousand hills" The
animals appear to be in fair order, but
how they thrive upon such a meager
supply of grass and sprouts is past
understanding. Yet there are nearly
million sheep on the islands and
each sheep is supposed to require a
pasturage Of several acres. Every
year the old animals are slaughtered
for the tallow, or, to use the local
term "tried down." the returns from
the wool, the tallow and the hides in
q recent year amounting to more than
$1,0O0,000.
"Stone Rivers" Of ouartzite.
Farther inland we catch our first
glimpses of what appear to be gllsten-
ing streams but on closer inspection
are found to be quartzite. This sub
stance, the particles somewhat resem-
bling crude diamonds in shape, lies
in long rows, to which the natives
have given the name of "stone river"
Scientists say that these so-called "riv-
ers" are a kind of glacier and that
they are slowly moving toward the

what becomes of your students
after they leave school?" I inquired
of the English master Of the only
place of learning in the islands. "Al-
most without exception" he replied,
they go out to become herders Of
sheep or to some employment in con-
nection with the st> ep industry"
"You see, sir, there Is little for our
boys to do outside of this one calling,
yet few Of them leave their island
home for the great outer world" Then
the master pointed out from among
his brightest pupils one little fellow
perhaps fifteen years of age. "That
boy" said he, ''has completed the
work of the school, but he is so am
bilious that for two additional years
he has been going over the same
course. We have no advanced classes,
so this little fellow-and there are
several others like him-are denied

Two Large Islands in the Group.
The Falkland group comprises two
large islands, known as East and West
Falkland, respectively, and more than
a hundred smaller ones, with a total
area Of nearly 1000 square miles, al.
most as large as the state Of New
Jersey. East Falkland is the larger
of the two and they are separated by
a narrow strait.
When we sailed into Port Stanley
the capital of the little colony and the
largest of the twenty or more settle
ments, the usual cloudy weather pre-
vailed; several days of ocean-buffeting
had been followed by calmer seas and
the entrance to the small bay, known
as Port William inlet, was pleasant
diversion. The low, brownish hills,
barren and somber looking, presented
little to attract the business traveller ;
yet, to the lover of nature who de-
lights to wander far from beaten paths
there are always sights to please.
Comparatively few ships make the
port of Stanley; other than the coming
or vessels in distress there is not much
trafhc with the outside world, and as
consequence the arrival of a pas
senger ship is matter of some inter-
est to the people. The day of our
coming was not an exception, and
both old and young came to meet US,
and 1t might be said that we received
a cordial reception. Once upon terra
frma the hardy appearance of the in
habitants and the weather-beaten but
clean and neatly kept homes are es-
pecially noticeable. The thousand
persons composing Stanley's popula-
ton have not troubled themselves
with street making; it is kind of 60
as-you-please town, very much resem-
bling the French Canadian settlements
along the New Brunswick coast.

THG FALKLANDs ONLY SEAT OF LEARNING

most prominent buildings in Stanley
are the governors quarters, the bar
racks, which shelter small English
garrison, a cathedral, a new school
building, q number of warehouses, a
few stores and several hotels. The
stores and hotels are about the only
business concerns excepting the
houses of the English company, which
practically monopolizes the great in
dustry of the islands-that of sheep
raising and the industries resulting
therefrom.
Not Much to See In Stanley.
A short time is sufficient to see all
that Stanley has to offer. A visit to
the stores, as in other lands, reveals
to some extent the needs and occupa-
tions Of the people; and this fact is
especially emphasized in the town Of
Stanley. The articles offered for sale
are of the most substantial kind, such
as coarse clothing, heavy boots, tin
and earthenware, ships stores, medi-
cal supplies, and in fact everything
required in a sheep-raising commu-
nifty where the winters are long and
severe and the summers short and
cool.
The average temperature Of the
islands is AZ degrees Fahrenheit. The
cool and constant winds from the
southwest send a chill through the
stranger and urge him to physical ex-
ercise. In fact, the very isolation of
ones surroundings kindles the wan
derlust and if he is at all inclined to
pedestrianism here is an excellent
place to crafty his inclination.
An overland tramp is most pleasant
and invigorating. The country rises
gradually from the little bay, and
after one walks q few miles he looks
back upon one of the worlds most
isolated towns. Proceeding, the wan.
derer is impressed with the awful
loneliness. Few people are seen and
not a tree breaks the horizon, save
