 The colonel explains in his letter, that the federal requirements for na- tionl suardsmen, are gradually be- coming more stringent. in fact by 1919 the war department will require that Arizona furnish a complement of l.35c officers and men. with a 90 per cent increase each year until d total of 2400 has been reached In order to meet this demand. it is necessary that better quarters for the guards he established.
 Following is portion of the letter which Col Harris presented to both houses yesterday:
 Tine requirements will of course require the expenditure of additiona, state funds as well as the large in- crease of federal funds. IL will be i'm possible for Arizona t0 meet these requirements withoat adequate ar mories and the minimum cost of one .

velopments Is the announcement that
one of the largest banking institu-
lions In America concerned with for
eign trade, the Guaranty Trust COM
pany of New York, has opened Paris
branch to handle the rapidly increas-
ing volume of French business.
This action may surprise many per-
sons who had thought of France as
bowed under a calamitous invasion.
The bank, however, gives figures indi-
eating that France Is not only meet
ing her military and civilian problems
with stout heart and never failing
courage, but Is re-establishing her ex-
port business with this country.
In 1914, the year Of the outbreak of
the war, imports from France to this
country totaled $141, 446,252. This to-
tai was reduced to $77,15S,740 in 1915,
but last year the value of French i'm
ports to the United States rose TO
$102,077, 900.
"A nation that can achieve such a
commercial recovery while her terri
tory is being ravished by the invader"

ing county was forced to decide
whether to amputate the arm of her
little daughter, or allowing the child
to suffer with her arm crushed in the
machinery Of power washing ma
chine until she could go a long dis.
tance for help. She decided that as
the arm was SO badly mangled that it
would have to be cut off, she would
perform the operation. With the i'm
plements at hand she cut the suffer
ing child loose, and hurriedly getting
a team ready, took her to the nearest
physician, where the injured stump
was properly cared for.
The child had been left alone in a
shed where power washing machine
was running, and, becoming frightened
at dog, attempted to go around the
machine and her arm was caught in
the cogs.

the SEASONS LYCEUM COURSE
TO Be HANDLED BY BUSINESS MEN AND
AND HIGH SCHo0l.---PROFITS TO 60
TO SCHOOL.

The Lyceum Course which for
years past has been under the
auspices of the Philip Business
Mems Club will this year be han
died by a joint committee COM
posed of high school young men
and women and representatives
of the business men, all profits to
60 to the school, to be expended
under the direction of a commit
tee of the teachers and represen-
tatives of the various student
activities. This we think is a
splendid arrangement and should
be encouraged by our most loyal
patronage when the season ticket
sellers come around. The course
this year is undoubtedly the best
that has ever been staged in
Philip. Ng Poon Chew, one of
the lecturers is a Chinese states
man and Journalist of wide re-
nown. He comes most highly
com m e n ded and in him we
will u n d ou b tedly enjoy a rare
treat. E. H. Lougler, a famous
criminoli9ist, Oriental ira eler
and lecturer, has been heard by
some Of our citizens and is pro-
nounced grand. His lecture THE
Shackles of the World will be
we'll worth our time and money.
The Rob Roy Quartet and Irish
Players are also entertainers of
the highest type.
Remember that buying a sea-
son ticket will save you money.
Even though it will be necessary
for you to miss a number, single
admissions will be so much high
er that you can better afford the
season ticket. Remember furth-
er a big sale of season tickets be-
fore the course opens insures the
boys and girls of the school a pro-
fit on their undertaking whereas
if we hold back there may be a
deficit. Buy a Liberty bond and
