large nearly all of these appalling losses for the week must have occurred on the western front.
 If the American people were only told what the is and how desperate the situation is, and what the awful cost of mendng it will be, would have complaint of popular apathy. We would all be nerving and bracing ourselves for the shock that is to come.
 We will be told eventually and then will come the nerving and bracing and when the of press agenting has passed, the American people will all be earnestly behind the government. When the spirit of America is thoroughly aroused and we realize that the preservation of the nation demands the most complete service and willingness to sac rifice, of every citizen, then and then only will we win this

End of the Fair.

We'll it is all over again. We have had a pleasant time the fair, and trust profitable one Out of the experiences of the stock growers and the farmers who have come together and exchanged vews there must improvements of methods which will make them all richer; at rate, those who are observant who profit by the experiences of others well as of their will be better farmers and better stock growers. The result will be that next year we shall have still better exhibit of both stock and farm products. So, it will on; better exhibits better exhibitors, all the time approach ing perfection, though we never reach it.
 The views exchanged have not all been related to the farm and the range. The people have been brought closer together in many ways. They know now more about each other and about the va rious sections of the state They know more about all Arizona We cannot be very loyal to anything that we do we'll so that We must know Arizona to be loyal to it and when have thar loyalty our measure of loyalty to the whole country is increased. Thus we think that all better citizens for having been brought together in this way.

people do not understand the war you say, and mourn thereat. Whose fault is it? Why should any citizen realize personal responsibility when he reads, day after day, that his deputies at Washington are doing all these marvellous things for him? Why is it his concern to make the world safe for democracy when he discovers in the news from Washington that the world is being invented safe for democracy, or assembled safe for democracy, or standarized safe fOC democracy-b the giants who are directing all these monumental affairs at Washington? Why should he worry? Why, rndeed,r

What it does decry is this constant flood of senseless brag- gadocio that comes from Washington, this gTeltest-in- the world pifflc this personal exploitation, this crowding of the fact of who the eminences are who are doing all this. and what they are doing. instead of the conservative statement, once in time, of what they have done What a refreshing thing il would be to have something occasionally in the past tense about the progress of these war-makers- something accomplished, something done-instead of all this prophecy. all this confidertly-eXp line of stuff!

Hysteria in War.

The world is in danger of carrying the war to extremes It has been done; do not mean by cessive cruelty and by violation of hitherto recog nzed rules of war. That is bad enough and the only thing that be said in eXtenuaton of such acts is that those who committed them some how thought they would contribute victory, which is the thing chiefly sought in all .-'....'.....' .'.-.'
 But a good many foolish things have been done which could in no way serve any warlike aim. The Russians changed the historic their capital because it had German syllable The Germans wiped out all English nomenclature in German towns. The British prescribed German music and sup pose the Germans have prohibited English music. In some American towns in our excess of loyalty we mean in our misdirected loyalty-we have banned German music of all periods. In all +t1cse prohibit tous, German, British and American the prohibitors have very evidently off their to spite their faces.
 Now the British worrying about the 600 year old motto worn by the Prince of Wales "Ich Dien" T serve" They do not like those German words But if they eliminate them they will have eliminated the history the motto which the Black Prince took at Crecy from the body John of Lux emburg, the blind King of Bohemia along with his plume to which two more ostrich feathers were later added constituting the modern crest of the Prince of Wales.
 Some enthusiasts have fallen back upon joke by Lewis Morris nearly two centuries old cuse for destroying "Ich Den" Morris joke was a suggestion that "Ich Dien" was a Germanization of the Welsh "Eich dyn7 behold the man.
 Much more recent than this motto something else has been introduced into England, the German blood of the ruling family with it's extensive connec- tons. For two hundred years the monarchs of Great Britain have been of German blood and in the reign of Victoria, German was the language of the family circle
 But this is not of races. An Englishman or an American German descent may be as loyal as another. President Wilson has proclaimed that at only with Prussianism, mitarism and not with the German people. Still less can be at war with the Vusc and the language of the German people those living and those long dead,

The Education Fund

One of Phoenix's young business men con- ceived the idea of saving for his children's education, and as @ result, his little daugh- ter. now ten years old has almost $1OO0 in the savings bank, drawing interest, and the little son, now seven years old, has fund of over $500.
 Themethod of saving pursued by this young man was unique He deposits twelve checks of s each once year for each child, in the savings bank. with instructions to credit one check the first of each month to each child. He made 1t one of his regular monthly eX- pense items, and gave the checks in ad vance. so that they would be charged up against his own account every month. When the children are old enough to enter college. their expense for tuition and living expenses will be provided. The assessment upon their father has been monthly, instead of all in one lump sum. And it is much easier for the father to educate his children in this manner.
 Children have right to an education, and this method is the right one to use. Parents owe it to their children. An education is something no one can take from a child. There is food for thought in this plan.
