VOLUNTEER TODAY.
Join Arizona's Crack Infantry at Naco
 and Prevent Drafting.

Under the provisions of the new Federal bill men who vol unteer for service with the Ma tional Guard between now and the date of the effectiveness of the draft, will be discharged at the close of the war, but there is no such provision for the men who are drafted, neither is there an opportunity to chose services as is possible now. The Ariz- ona quota will call for two thouS- and men. According to the military authorities of the State this will take about every avail able unmarried man of military age in the state. This being true the thing for the young men to do is to volunteer for duty now and fill up the regiment right away. By so doing they can get out as soon as the trouble is over, but they can be kept as long as the war department wants tc keep them under the draft provisions. Another advantage. About 6O,OOO officers will be needed to officer the new troops; these men will be chosen from the regular and National Guard regiments now in the service. Men who enlist as privates now have a chance for commission better with the National Guard than with any other organiza- tion that has yet been mention ed. Another advantage. Men who volunteer now can go with the home boys and be with friends and comrades all the time; when men are drafted, comrades from the same village and town are likely to be separ- ated into various arms of the serve and have no chance to service together. Further they have no choice about the matter either. The moral of this is Volunteer today. Join Ariz- ona'S Crack Infantry at Naco. Recruiting is going on continu. ally.

Local and Personal Items Gathered
 During the Week.

General Superintendent Fl. J :. Temple of the Southern Pacific of Mexico, was a visitor in No gales a couple of days this week, on company business. Mir. Tem ple makes his headquarters at 1 Empalme.
 At the meeting of the Nogales Rifle Club last Sunday, Captain Fuqua, 12th Infantry, U. s. A.. delivered splendid address, which was greatly appreciated by members of Nogales' crack rifle club.
 Gus Quickenstadt. travelling auditor for the Southern Pacific of Mexico. with headquarters at Tucson. was a southbornd pass enger last Tuesday, en route to Mazatlap, and other points in the south country.
 General Plutarco Elias Gales, candidate for governor of SOnO- ra, has been in the city several days, having arrived Monday by automobile, from Agua Prieta. His friends are predicting his election on May 18th, by big majority. Upon his arrival in Nogales, General Gales was given a rousing welcome. Monday the following we'll known young men of Nogales made application to Major Whit worth, district adjuntant of No gales, for entrance to the of ficers' training School at San Francisco: Robert H. Karns, Arthur H. deRiemer, E. A. Tit comb, Frisco Kibbey. Arthur Martin, Herbert R Chatham, Duane Bird, LeRoy Wyrick, Malcom Middleton, H. M. Co., chran, Frank Fitch, Edward J. Ralph and William G. Brown. The mill at the Wandering Jew mine is going up in good order. The new road to the mine is already completed, and that it is a good one is evidenced by the taking of the $500 pound crusher over it with no Elishaps. It is expected that early in May there will be ore passing through | it when the mine will be manned to extract ore About 20 men will be employed in the mine, while the mill will be run two shifts to take care of the ore produced. .-Patagonian.

UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA.
Faculty and Students Respond to Gall
 of the Nation.

The call of the Nation for service in the many fields of en- deavor created by the present crisis, has given the University of Arizona an opportunity to show it's patriotism and to de- monstrate it's ability and readi- ness for service. From the time of it's orgoniza rion, the Univer- sity has made military training an important feature in it's curriculum, and tbat has shown itself in the fact that a number of the officers of the Arizona Ma tional Guard now on the border doing duty are graduates of the University.
 The creation of the Officers Reserve Training Corps was so enthusiastically accepted that the University will lose even before the ordinary time taken for commencement the majority of it's men students and it is probable that within the next week between 20 and 30 men in the upper classes will be called to the training camp at the Presidio, San Francisco, Cal. Over 80 of the men of the Institu- tion have enrolled in the Of fcers' Reserve Corps, and the engineers almost to a man are enrolled in the Engineers Corps.
 Practically every girl of the University is enrolled for Red Cross Service and are receiv- ing first aid.
 Dr.. von KleinSmid, president of the University, as head of the Intercollegiate Intelligence Blu reau of the State, has been in communication with the alumni of the Institution to ascertain when and how they may best serve the Nation, and almost as unit they have responded that they are ready for immediate service in their various fields.
 Dr. von KfeinSmid, also as chairman of the Food Production and Distribution Committee, of the State Council, for Defense, has an important work laid out for him. Dr. A. E. Douglas dean of the College of Liveral. Arts and Sciences, and Professor Charles F. Willis, Directors of the State Bureau of Mines, as members of the State Council of Defense, have been assigned to the work on scientific research.
 Practically every member of the faculty has signitied their intention and desire to put his his entire time, if necessary, on such work as the government may assign to him, and the trustees of the University have offered to the State and to the Nation the entire plant, it's equipment and personnel, for government use if desired.
 Truly, no institution could respond more readily to the call of the Nation than the Univer- Sity of Arizona.

War and Marriage

The boom in the marriage market
seems to have subsidized almost as
suddenly as it began, a circumstance
which lends color to the cynical the
DRY that it was instituted and pro
NOTED in large measure by the igno-
BILE army of slackers. But whether
the official warning had anything to
do with it or not, the decline is prob
ably but temporary.
We may not again see anything
like the enthusiasm that was said TIC
be manifested by large number OF
-new-made citizens who fancied that
a license 40 wed was a certificate OF
exemiyion from the heavier duties OF
citizenship, but unless we differ in
this way from other countries the
war will serve to stimulate the bust
ness of marrying and giving in mar
rage
