ARIZONA TRIES
 TO BEAT DRAF I
 BY VOLUNTEER

As the time draws near for the draft bill to become a law, recruiting in Arizona takes on higher speed. More than 100 men enlisted last week in the First Arizona and were sent to Naco. Since April IS there have been 2l5 re- cruits sent to this regiment from diff ferent parts of the state This does not include the men who enlisted in the regular army and were sent direct to their stations without giving any credit to the Phoenix office Tucson. Yuma. Douglas and Clifton ATorenci stations have furnished many for the regular army during the past three weeks.
 Captain Le Baron. reserve officer of the First Arizona, who has been mak- ing such a fine record in northern Arizona in securing men for the Ari- zona regiment, was at the office of the adjutant general at the state house yesterday. Of the 215 men sent to the First Arizona since April IS, Captain Le Baron IS credited with more than 200. He declared yesterday that he had 50 or 75 more men lined up and will enlist them next week.
 Captain J. B. Nelson, also a reserve officer, was at the adjutant generals office yesterday. He has been re- cruiting in the Jerome Prescott dis trict, but has been transferred to the Globe Miami district. With Captain R. R. Knotts from Yuma he was after information as to how soon they would be called back into the service. Be- yond being informed that it was ru- mored that the call would come soon. Adjutant- General Harris could tell them nothing more definite
 It was declared at the office of the
 1jutant- general yesterday that there .t-,s movement on foot to raise Ari- zona's quota of 2,600 men voluntarily instead Of by draft, as contemplated. It is declared that not only can this be done by heroic effort, but that it would be marvellous advertising for Arizona and something not even attempted by any other.

BENEFIT PLAY
 |S ELABORATE

The strict military requirements of the administration plan of the seiective draft, business obligations impossible of sudden changes or determinations, and many other conditions contingent to q long reign of peace have rendered , it unlikely that all may go to the firing line in this campaign for the freedom of humanity and maintenance of the principles of democracy.
 With ready grasp of the necessities of the moment the Phoenix Chapter No. of the order Eastern Star is al i ready in the field to raise a mighty fund for the benfit and encoura cement of the Phoenix Chapter Of the Ameri- can Red Cross. To this end it has been deemed expedient to stage the brilliant military play, The Red Cross Nurse, ' at the Elks theator, two nights, May 25 and 2e.
 4 most competent committee has been chosen by the Eastern Star to su- pervise the work in all departments
 necessary to the success of this very worthy undertaking, and with the di- rection and very earnest work of Mrs. D. r. Biddings. chairman: Mrs T. T. Ivy, Mrs. A. M. Mayfield and Vernon L. Clark, who together compose the committee, every detail of the work ! is being very capably conducted in a
 manner that gives abundant promise of a monster patriotic demonstration and big financial support to the focal organization of the Red Cross.
 The play chosen by the committee is one constructed along military lines md presenting thrilling scenes of the battlefield, showing American soldiers in active service, and Red Cross nurses at work on the hattlefields, and in the

everything seems to be working against the rapid construction of the building. The latest trouble was ex- perlenced when the mortar which was used on the front bricks did not hold it's color. About a week was lost when the bricks were torn down and then built up again with new mortar. Tuesday the terra cotta front was started as the bricks on the columns have been built up to the required height. Some of the pieces of terra cotta which have been placed con tain some of the big gold letQrs which will spell "The Jordan Hard ware Company" The letters are cov- cred with gold leaf and are quite val table. The future quarters of the Willimantic Trust company have been nearly completed as the whole of the front Is up and the walls have been p1astered but the concrete competition floor has not been laid yet
 The iron stairway to the upper floors is being installed, workmen commence ing on it Tuesday.
 The building will certainly be a marked addition to the Willimantic business section In addition to the sign over the first floor there will be one on the roof of the building. A 25-foot fagpole will be erected at the middle of the top.

THREE NEW TEACHERS
 AT HIGH SCHOOL
Faculty For Coming Year Announced Freshman Glass May be Smaller Than Last Years.

i The high school is ready for the opening of the term. Sept. 4. All the desks in the building have been re- vanished and the ceiling in the east
 ern end of the first floor corridor has been replaced by new plaster as parts i of it fell during the last part of last term. The freshman class will prob ably be smaller this year than last when about 150 entered, only 96 names have been received up to the present, although many of the out
 side schools and the Natchaug school have not sent in their list of students yet. Principal Case has returned from i his vacation and is completing assign ments. He will be at the high school office between the hours of to F in the morning. to in the afternoon except Sunday until school opens, talk with parents of students if they so de- sire.
 There are three new teachers in the teachers are Miss Gertrude Seaber of Claremont, N H.. where she taught in the high school; who will teach geo. metry and algebra; Miss Phoebie Vim
 who is to teach in Springfield. and she will teach elementary science; Miss Hazel Partridge will teach fresh men English, taking Miss LaMay's Weeks place. Miss Weeks will teach in a Waterbury high school
 The remainder of the faculty is the same and is as follows: Miss Helen Burnham, history; Miss Carrie Ray, English Gunior and senior); Mrs. Thusa c. Turner, German; Miss Az nes Dwyer.

Bowman, French: Miss Dorothy Gran ger. stenography and typewriting; Kervin Reynolds, bookkeeping; Law renee Howard, chemistry and physics; Raymond Parker, geometry and trig- ometry; Miss Margaret Van Nuys, freshman mathematics: and Miss Katherine Futile. history.
 From the school records which are available at present, it seems that very few of the sophomores and jun- iors will study German, less than g signing up for that language. which may go to show that the high school students are patriotic
