Sunshine STEPPED in
Deepest Gloom: Pet
Piggy CdShed In

Sunshine" Staiger is in mourning
this week over the death of his wild
hog that he captured on a recent hunt
ing trip. The youngster followed
Sunshine" everywhere and refused
to stay at home when Sunshine" was
uptown.
Back in. the hills this hogs mother
no doubt put him to bed at a reason
able hour, but in Ray he would stay
up until Sunshine" closed his place
of business.
Sunshine" figures that his friend
just naturally couldn't stand the
bright lights of the metropolis.

MUST FILE
CLAIM BLANKS
BY JANUARY |

Holders of mineral properties who
desire to take advantage of the recent
resolution of congress to the effect
that assessment work will be suspend
ed during the period of the war, are
warned that they must fill out
Notice of Intention to Hold Mining
Claims" and file it with the County
Recorder before the first of January.
This applies to all claims filed with
Recorders. Notices regarding claims
in other counties must be filed with
the County Recorder of the county in
which the properties lie.
A supply of the blank forms to be
used in making claim for exemption
from assessment work have been OBJ
tanned by the Copper Camp, and may
be had for the asking by applying to
Mr. R. V. Johnson at the Chocolate
Shop. If you have not yet done the
assessment work on your claims, get
one of these blanks from Mr.. Johnson
or write to the Arizona State Bureau
of Mines, Tucson, Ariz., for as many
as you need. This exemption does not
apply only to soldiers and sailors, but
to all owners of mining claims, pro-
vided they file claim in accordance
with the law Before January 1.
Filing fee for these notices is but
twenty cents.
The resolution approved by the SEN
ate and house of representatives on
October 5, reads as follows:

pledged the best efforts of the county
to help Captain Sammie in his work.

sented as saying, Bravo, Miss Pinal,

fine pear and will surely raise Cain

Mineral Exhibit Lacking.
1t was deplorable that there was
practically no mineral exhibit from
Pinal county, and the hundreds of peo-
pie from this part of Arizona who are
familiar with all our wonderful min
eral resources were hard put to it to
find any exhibits from Pinal in the
Mines building. To be sure there was
the vanadium concentrating mill, or
rather a small working model of the
one to be installed by the U. S.
Vanadium Development company.
This exhibit attracted lots of atten-
ton, but Pinal county fell far short of
anything like display of mineral re-
sources One felt that with the great
Superior and Ray districts, with
scores of developing mines, that there
| should have been a better display, for
Pinal county deserves to rank along
side the other counties of the state,
and in fact ahead of most of them
Perhaps by next year the Florence
Chamber of Commerce or some other
aggregation of boosters will take hold
of the mineral part of the exhibit and
do for Pinal county along these lines
what was done in the agricultural Sec
tion.
Red Cross Exhibit.
The Ray branch of the Red Cross
had a small exhibit in the department
given over to this work. The principal
feature of the Ray exhibit was a suit
of pajamas, very neatly put together,
which had been made by Mrs. W. e.
Mullen of Ray in hour and 46 minutes.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN
IN THE NEXT HOUR 4?

An editorial in the March Womans
Home Companion says: Everything
can happen in the next hour that has
ever happened. II contains all the
possibilities of universe. In the next
hour children will be born, men and
women will die, whole worlds will be
smashed to atoms and drop out of
space, and the girl you love go back
on you. In the next hour the house
may burn, you may quarrel with your
best and dearest friend, someone may
give you poison, your future may be
stolen, the government may change,
the temperature may rise or fall 40
degrees, and the world may come TO
an end. You plan how you win pass
the next hour and 10! the train is
ditched, the auto turns turtle. Aunt
Jane arrives, the neighbors baby has
commissions, the house is struck by
lightning, your tooth begins to ache,
a telegram is delivered. the wires are
out of order, you are discharged,
somebody dies and leaves you a for
tune. you are operated upon. The
next hour Is what you ever were and
what you ever may be compressed into
so minutes. II is the period of hope
deferred of supreme victory, OF total
annihilation, and the entrance to an
assured Immortality. Fixed as the
stars in heaven, unalterable as the
law OF gravity. It stands before you
like the grim sphinx, containing with
In itself all the marvellous variety OF
human experience, To know how to
meet the next hour with joy, head
erect, with courage singing in your
heart, is to solve the deep mystery
of eternity."

SOME LIGHT
ON THE WAR

Here is an editorial on the war by
Victor Murdock, which is l of the
most illuminating things written re-
Gently about the war. The editorial
reads: There is in the helplessness
of Holland this morning, a striking
manifestation Of the new way of the
world which must startle every
thinking man. 1t would be heroic
no doubt for Holland to resent the
attack on her shipping, made when
she was following implicitly Ger
many's instructions. But it would
be heroic madness. Belgium, Serbia
and Rumania are sufficient evidence
Of that. Holland can only swallow
the insult and the injury, and count
herself as negligible among nations,
as she is. Little as the world seems
to realize 1t, all the old standards of
international amity have been swept
away, and a single measure, that of
military power, remains. The free
dom of the seas. that common prop
erty of all, big and little alike, has
become a fiction. 1t can be made a
reality again only If military power
ordains. Lacking that power, Hol-
land is excluded from the use of
any part of 1t save her own coastline.
Back OF the recriminations that rage
between the opposing nations in this
war, is the altogether black and sim
lister fact that right without might has
| passed. Power and power alone
spells privilege. If the condition were
product of war alone, the situa-
! tion would not mean the new way OF
| the world, and would concern only
| the statesman and not the philoso.
pher. But the condition was wrench
| ing the old lines of society out OF
| shape before the war. In times OF
peace the contest, in territorial acqui-
sition and In trade, was for power, and
| the general subscription to mutual
agreements was more seeming than
real. The universal lurch of capital
to Capitalization and the answering
challenge of labor thru organization
for power. The only nation and the
only individual with actual assurance
of survival as nation and individual
has been the nation and individual
with power, either in money, organi
cation or arms. So the condition Il
not new. War has merely torn ava!
its fineries and stood IL up befor,
mankind in all it's ugly nakedness
It may be that war has done this.

1t Is one thing for the department

Every western legislature is taking
shot at the railroads on account of
the car shortage, but all the legisla-
lures Of the country, congress and the
Interstate Commerce commission
seem to be unable to bring about any
relief. It stands to reason that the
railroads would be only too slad 10
furnish shippers with cars II they had
them or could get them, since they
are losing thousands of dollars every
day by reason of their inability to
take care of the business that is Of
fered them. Drastic action by the
Interstate Commerce commission
might bring some relief, but 1t is
doubtful. A period of depression and
poor business for the railroads has
been succeeded by period of un-
precedented activity on account of the
European war and the roads simply
do not have the equipment TO handle
the traffic. No matter what the fed
eral and state authorities decide to
do, those In a position to know the
conditions and facts are satisfied that
the situation will not improve ma
terially until the railroad equipment
is greatly increased or the end of the
war in Europe reduces the volume of
business the roads are required to
handle.-omaha Journal-Stockman.

HALL GETS A TRIP
BACK TO LANSING

One OF the worlds greatest myster-
les is the heart of woman. Bert Hall,
sent to the Kansas penitentiary at
Lansing for grand larceny out In
western Kansas, became a trusty at
the prison. Frequently he was seiit
out of the prison to a confectionery
and cigar stand, where there was a
girl clerk. Recently Hall was paroled
from the prison. About the same
time the girl quit her Job and left.
The prison authorities got tip that
they were together. The other day
J. w. Lingenfelter. prison parole Of
ficer, met the girl at Pittsburg, Kan.
She told him that Hall was working
In a Pittsburg restaurant. Within a
few hours Hall was on his way back
to Lansing to become a convict again.
Paroled men cannot marry, lacking
citizenship. and they violate their pa
role II they live with a woman with
out being married. For this reason
Hall was taken back to Lansing.

Farmers will not thank the club

Best Way to Fit Garment.

There is no better way to obtain a
good fit than this way: Baste all
your seams as nearly as possible to
the measure required, always having
a much deeper seam under the arms
and on the shoulders. Try the gar
ment on wrong side out, pinning all
the seams according to the bodys
shape. beginning at the front, then
the middle or the back. leaving I'M
der-arm and shoulder seam until the
last. Raste it according to your line
of pins. Sew every seam except the
under-arm and shoulder seams. If
any alterations are needed, these
seams are the ones to be taken in or
let out. The End fit should be made
by putting the garment on with the
right side out.

Skirts Longer ami Narrow

Radical changes in womens gar

will reach the shoe tops. The straight

ing skirt. The straight line models
will necessitate the use of just as
much cloth as the flaring styles.
