THE HOUR HAS COME.

One thing this great war is going
to do is to bring the Colorado river
delta from Needles to the Mexican
boundary into it's own. The great
possibilities of this valley in the pro-
duction of foodstuffs and cotton is at
tracing nationwide attention and
the state and nation as we'll, is con-
sidering the question of river control
to bring into use the thousands Of
acres of rich lands lying idle along
the Colorado river. The hour of ma

MOTHERS DAY POEM.

(By THE Poet of the Desert")
If you have a gray-haired mother
In the old home far away,
Sit down and write the letter
You put off from day to day.
Don't wait until her tired steps
Reach heavens pearly gate,
But show her that you still love her
Before it is too late.
II you've tender message
Or loving word to say,
Don't wait till you forget it,
But whisper it to her today.
Who knows what bitter memories
May haunt you if you wait?
So make your loving mother happy
Before it is too late.
We live but in the present,
The future is unknown;
Tomorrow is a mystery,
Today is all our own
the chance to write that letter
May vanish while you wait,
So send your mother that letter
Before it is too late
The tender word unspoken,
The letters never sent,
The long forgotten messages,
The wealth of love unspent, .
For these some mothers heart is
breaking,
For these some loving mother
waits,
So show her that you care for her
Before it is too late.

Parker, the central gateway to Cal

ber of Commerce. Congratulations.
This is the best move any town or To-
cality struggling for recognition can
make. But that is not enough. The
next thing is for every .wide-awake
person in the town and surrounding
country to join 1t and help boost. In
community matters twenty-five peo-
pie pulling one rope can exert twice
as much influence as the same num-
ber pulling on as many different
ropes, even if the object in view Is
identical. Parker is small place
and has little to work with, but it is
the center of region of great po-
tential wealth. 1t has a chamber of
commerce and a good weekly news
paper, The Parker Post. These, with
its natural resources, are a better
warrant for future greatness than
hundred American citizens of
nationwide fame had fifty years ago.

ARIZONA LAWS PROTECT STOCK
INVESTOR.

Taking advantage of the 1iberality
Of the press, the Arizona corporation
commission is now sending broad
cast over the state a warning to the
people not to be imposed upon by
stock statesmen, and calling the atten-
tion of residents of the state to the
fact that their greatest protection
from men with fake promotion
schemes lies in the public assisting
the commission in upholding the
"blue sky law.
If every person who is approached
by stock salesman would take the
proper precautions, wild cat and fake
promotion schemes would be wiped
out in Arizona in six months time.
The corporation commission stands
ready to see that the law is enforced
in every respect, but the assistance
and cooperation of the public is an
essential requirement
In the first place every investment
company, whether domestic Or for
eign, that offers it's securities in the
form of stocks or bonds for sale to
the public must secure a permit so
to do from the corporation commits
sion. Precedent to the issuance of
such a permit the commission con-
ducts an investigation into the af
fairs of the company and If the COM
mission is convinced that the plan of
operation is fair and equitable,
stock selling permit is issued. Com
panies offering their securities to
the public without such permit are
doing so in violation of law.
The commission orders every COM
pany granted a permit to supply
each stock salesman with a copy of
the permit with instructions to SUBJ
NIT this permit to every person who
is asked to purchase stock II sales
man approaches you and offers to sell
you stock in any company and does
not give you copy of the commits
siOn's stock selling permit he is vio-
lating the provisions of the permit
and should be Immediately reported
to the commission. The reading of
this permit offers certain degree of
protection to the public, for in it the
commission generally sets out in de-
tail not only the plans of the COM
pany but list Of the property 1t
owns and other tangible assets.
From this the prospective purchaser
can very often get a better idea of
the things behind company than he
could by listening to stock sales
man.
In one or two instances the atten-
tiOn Of the commission has been call
ed to the fact that stock statesmen
have made the statement that their
company or its stock selling PROPOSE
tion had the endorsement of the cop
poration commission. This Is untrue
