A cRUMs or COMFORT FOR THE
UGLY pDCklING
BY DOROTHY DIX
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman
Writer,

Writer.
IRON time immemorial II has been
held that beauty is Gods best
gift to a woman.
Poets have sung II. Artists have
painted IT. 1t is tie theme Of every
novel and play. Every mother, as she
bends above the cradle Of her girl
baby, has asked the fairies 10 bestow
good looks upon her child, no matter
what else they denied her. The first
question that every man asks when
he hears Of a woman for the first time
Is whether she Is pretty or not
This eternal insistence on feminine
pulchrftude has led us TO believe that
for q girl to be born with a peaches
and cream complexion and a willowy
figure gives her the world in q sling
and that 1t is better for a girl not TO
be born at all than to be Matched out
an ugly duckling.
We have chung to the cheerful
theory that she who was a perfect
thirty-six could not fail to make a
brilliant marriage, or II she didn't,
that the beauty that launched a thou
sand ships could not fail to pull down
a good Job in any office that she de-
signed to grace with her effulgent
presence.
For this reason, Just because we are
50 imbued with the old traditions that
good looks il q woman's one best bet,
We have encouraged girls to devote
more time to marching their hair
than to cuItivating their brains, and
have taught them that q pair, OF large,
melting violet bihe eyes will do more
to help them along in the world than
any AMOUNT of intelligence, and en-
ergy and efficiency.
Il appears, however. that we have
been pinning our faith to false doc
trfne, at least so far as the business
world Is concerned, and that when
girl goes forth to seek q situation
: whereby she may earn her bread and
butter, beauty 10 handicap instead
Of an assert to her.
II A true that, left to their own
taste and inclination, men might pos
sibly like to I'LL up their offices with
maidens who were hours OF lowell
ness, but there are other considera'
ons--eh-er-wtSes, for example,
that make It expedient to choose
female employees who would not even
take q pink ribbon In q beauty contest
This is the experience 'of the mead
OF the employment department OF the
working Girls Home, who says that
4 girl with carroty hair and q snub
nose and q figure that looks like o
bundle that mother tied up, has ten

BEAUTY CHATS

Massage Is not to be confused
with osteopathy, which Is q new
science OF manipulating muscles
and bones. Massage is merely rub

OF the body.

MUST ERADICATE
The CATTLE TICK

Look at those four months old
runty calves" live stock breeder of
Escambia county said to DIR. E. M.
Nighbert and DIR. j. v. Knapp last
week when they stopped at his farm
to see how he was getting along.
Il can swing any one of the bunch
by the tail and crack it's head against
a post. I thought / could raise cat
tie, even under tick infestation con-
ditions, but was hoping that this
county would be freed of ticks this
year. The prospects are very discour-
aging so l will take a $4,000 loss
on my investment today, If can get
a purchaser, and close out the live
stock and farm" he continued.
"All of which emphasizes the nee
essfty for rushing the tick eradica-
ton work to completion just as fast
as possible" said DIR. Nighbert.
THAT gentleman lost heavily during
the winter on his COWS which became
SO weak through tick infestation that
many Of them begged down in the
swamps, while others dropped dead of
tick fever while on the open range.
"The dead cows represented the d.
rect loss on each one, and also the
loss of calves which they might have
brought if death had not overtaken
them. However the calves born OF
the weak, tick infested cows were SC
small and unpromising at -four
months of age that they were hardly
| worth owning.

DEPOSITORY FOR MONEY
 IS NOW SETTLED

Mention was made in the News of the case of the St. Johns State Bank and Apache county vs. Joe Burgess, county treasurer, which was a suit for mandamus to compel him to deposit the money of the county in the St. Johns State bank. This case was tried last month and taken under ad- visement by Judge Perkins of Flag staff, before whom the case was tried. He has just rendered his decision and granted the mandamus prayed for. His decision holds that the St. Johns State Bank, having been legally desig- mated as county depository for coun- ty monies, was entitled to have the county monies deposited with it.
 The county treasurer in his answer contended that the county treasurer had the right to cancel his designation of the St. Johns State Bank as de- pository and to deposit the money in any bank that suited him, but the su- perior court held against him.-Hol- brook News.

EIGHT TEACHERS RESIGN.

Last Saturday eight of the eleven teachers employed in the Holbrook schools rendered their resignations to the board of trustees of the schools the resignations to become effective at the close of the present term. All of the resisnations have been accept, ed by the trustees, and at the begin ming of the winter term in January there will probably be new corps of teachers in charge of the schools, with the exception of Prof. Gallagher, Mrs Arnold and Miss Whetstone.
 The action of the eight teachers in resigning was caused by friction which had existed for several weeks between the prir cipal and the teach CTS. For some time the trustees had been cognizant of the condition of things and they had endeavored in va rious ways to remedy it. Their ef- forts failed to accomplish the desired result, and eight of thu teachers, pos sibly with the idea of precipitatine matters, rendered their resignations.- Holbrook News.

ROAD WORK IS NOT .
 TO BE ABANDONED

Arizona is going to hit the ball from now on in the matter of building and repairing roads,"
 This is Governor Campbell's answer to the suggestion that road building by the state be foregone until the con- clusion of the war. Not long ago the state engineering department, after struggling with the problem of build ing roads in the face of difficulties in obtaining labor and supplies, sounded the governor out as to the desirability of abandoning plans for the construc- tion of new roads and bridges.
 The governor took the matter under advisement and numerous conferences with Tom Maddock, the state engi- neer, were held. In the following let ter to Mir. Maddock, the governor sets forth the future policy of the state in this respect:
 November 2s, 1917. My Dear Mir. Maddock:
 Replying to your communication of October 18th, embracing the subject of state highway activities during the course of our present year: After mature consideration of the same, it is my judgment, in line with the policy consistently enunciated by me, that the work on state highways and bridges should be actively pros ecuted and that roads, now part of the state highway system, should be maintained and improved to the high est degree of utilization by the trav- cling public. Until such a time as material and labor have reached the point in cost, where the former is car ried beyond our ability to purchase the same at reasonable, average war prices and the latter has been enlisted in the several departments of military activities or industrial pursuits, let us keep on at our present rate of mo- mentum.
 From information received, I be- lieve that, at the present time, there is surplus of labor in several of our mining districts, part of which we can absorb for use in state highway work. It is my desire that as much of this labor as can be economically absorb ed, be employed.
 wish you to understand that I ap- preciate the spirit which impelled you to bring this most important sugges- tion to my attention, and shall be glad to hear that you, as the head of one of the most important departments of the state, will be glad to pursue with diligence and satisfaction, the policy herein outlined.
 Sincerely,
 THOMAS E. CAMPBELL

MILL IN APACHE COUNTY.

The main mill of the Apache Lum- Der Co.,, of which A. B. McGaffey is president, will be located at Cuff Ci- enega, which is in Apache county near Cooley's ranch. The mill site is very near the line between Navajo and Apache counties, and many peo- pie thought it was in Navajo county. The articles of incorporation of the company were published last week in the St. Johns Observer. While this county loses the mill there is conso- lation for this loss in the fact that practically the entire length of the Apache Railway will be in Navajo county and this will help swell the tax roll of the county.-Holbrook News.
