TIMES AWARDS PRIZES

The subscription contest which the Daily Times conducted during the past month has been brought to a close and was a success in every par ticular. Through the efforts of a corps of capable and energetic young ladies our circulation has been prac- tically doubled and in return fer the service the Daily Times is dfstribu- ting prizes worth $7OO or their equiv alent in cash. The race was close and exciting one from start to finish and our only regret is that all of the contestants could not receive the Ford automobile or the $500 in gold. The second and third winners were awarded a cabinet Victrola each and the fourth a ladies wrist watch.
 The votes were canvassed today by competant and impartial judges and the result of the final count and the names of the winners are publish ed in our local columns. The cam paign throughout was managed in a fair and impartial manner and the only regret or complaint that any of the unsuccessful contestants can have is that they failed to secure as many votes as the winner of that particular prize.

THE FOOD DRIVE

The greatest food drive of the war is now on. There have been many big drives-the first Liberty noan. the Red Cross, the second Liberty Loan. The American people have respond ed as only the American people can. Money to wage war and money to care for the victims of war has been given.
 The present drive is larger and more far-reaching in importance than all the others The two Liberty loans and the money given the Red Cross Will be useless and vain if the results or this drive are not equally encourag- ing.
 This drive is the Hoover drive. It IS the beginning of the campaign of the food administration against the greatest foe of the nation-Waste, and It's ally, Want. The individual house. wife is given an opportunity to show what she can do. According to the amount of food she can save, days be deducted from the length of the war. Save wheat, save meat. save butter, save sugar. Use vegetables:

PRo-eERMANs OBJECTIONABLE,

From many sources in Fairbanks come reports that pro-Germans, par ticularly among the foregin element, are becoming objectionable in their ut teranees regarding the war and the conduct of the United States. These outbursts are increasing with tolera- tion by Americans until they are be- coming very annoying to patriotic citi- zens.
 While the United States was neutral Americans generally tried to observe the proclamation to avoid utterances that would injure the feelings of citi- zens of the warning nations who hap pened to be in America. Now ,tnos. il sympathy with Germany are not show ing common decency enough to refrain from plating their opinions in places where they can be overheard by patri- otic Americans They are careful not to overstep enough so that they may be arrested for sedition but they touch the border of sedition and treason, and while they may not be handled by law, other methods may be adopted, ac- oording to threats of loyal offended Americanss
 Under these circumstances and to check sedition, the federal authorities are anxious to have all cases. reported to them when anyone makes remarks detrimental to Uncle Sam or his leaders.
 It is probable also that cases of this kind will be given the widest publicity, so that everyone may know just who the people are who have to be watched.-Fairbank News.

SOL DIERS MAKE MANY STRANGE
 WILLS
(By United Press)

LONDON, Nov. 3. - Many strange human documents in the form of wills i and last testaments are made in the trenches. Before going into battle Tommy sometimes scrawls a few words on scrap of paper, disposing of his chattels in case he gets done up. '
 Almost anything that indicates the will of the dead man is accepted as a legal will, and the war office deciphers them as best they can and puts them into effect. A North countryman left the following:
 Whoever first sets eyes on this gets
 everything I leave,
 For my kith and kin are dead and gone
 and I've not friend to grieve; There's tidy bit in the bank, you'll
 find, and my army pay, though
 small
 So, stranger, breathe one sigh for me
 and you're welcome to it all"
 Curiously the young sergeant who found the body and first set eyes on" the will was awarded the property and found tidy sum in the bank.
 Some of the wills are found to be fictions. The Tommy enjoys willing 10. his-riends vast. estates, automobiles and yachts that he doesn't possess - and causing the war office a lot of trouble.

Napoleon would have made a great success had he set up in business as reader of the stars. When in exile at St. Helena, he said: q made the mistake of my career when I had the opportunity that l did not remove the Hohenzollerns from the throne of Prussia. AS long as this house reigns and until the red cap of liberty is erected in Germany, there will be no peace in Europe"

bining as they did the highest profes-
 sions and practices of civilization,
 Christianity and citizenship. The in- spiration that came out of that mighty struggle strengthened them in their new faith, and when the great conti- mental powers and the African pirates sought to prey upon their commerce and threatened their national integrity they struck with the swiftness and
 force of the lightning and maintained their supremacy against seemingly overwhelming opposition.
 The Civil war - most cruel of all in that it arrayed brother against bro. ther and father against son in the bloodiest conflict of the ages - i'm posed it's own peculiar test upon the American people. The story is sttu
 fresh in our memories. We readily re, call how men were stupefied when the first crash came, how they re, fused to believe their own senses for
 time, and how they hesitated 10 take up arms against those of their own blood. But the God of Battles was di- recting their destinies, their cOnsci- ence finally swept aside all doubts and
 misgivings, and they responded to the
 call of the country with a spirit that astOunded the world and set the high water mark for sacrifice in righteous warfare. Out of that struggle came
 chastened and reunited people. strengthened in their common sacri- flee and working out their manifest
 destiny from the wreckage of war in
 manner that both astonished and
 claimed the admiration of the whole
 world. Looking back over the match
 less achievements of the past fifty
 years, who would say that the moral
 and material salvage realized from
 that war was not we'll worth the sac rifice?
 Now we are engaged in the greatest
 of all wars - war with complica-
 tion of causes insofar as other coun-
 tries may be concerned, but with an issue as cleap as the monday sun in it's bearing upon the immediate safety and ultimate supremacy of America. In the confusion of the moment it is only natural that we should stumble for a dnY
 drawn into the awful conflict. We hesitate to take the plunge; the sacri- fees imposed seem out of all propor, t1on to our interests involved. But gradually our senses are returning. our sanity is being restored, and in short while We will all buckle on the armor, determined to face the crisis in characteristic American fashion. When we come to realize as a people that this war was inevitable and that fate had decreed that Americans should once again take the field in defense of the honor and integrity of the republic, then will be gladly bear ineomparable sacrifices to the com. mon altar and fight as our fathers fought for the cause of freemen every where. Nor will we stop to count the cost. for we know that we will realize a recompense from this war, as from all the others. And the compensation will come to us in a thousand different ways-in direct proportion to the char acter of the conflict we wage and the sentiment that inspires the sacrifice.

THE GREATEST OF ALL WARS.

War has it's compensation no less than peace, and in the eternal fitness of things on earth it plays an incalcu- Iable part in the shaping of the desti- nies of the peoples of all climes When the crisis comes. when the fate of bat tie hangs in the balance, when the sacrifices of blood and treasure are heaped on the altars as high as the heavens, when suffering and uncer- tainty fill the days and nights with heartaches and anguish and strange foreoodings; then does it seem that war is indeed calamity, for which the future holds no possible relief or reparation. BuA there is another side to war war waged in righteous cause - that furnishes tue brain and brawn of men and women, strengthens their souls and glorifies a people for all time to come. In a war such as this the salvage more than compen. sates for all the suffering and sacri. flee.
 In this respect, a distinguished con temporary reminds us that war is like religion, in that it creates in men an ecstasy. mystical and spiritual exhaltation that enables them to achieve and endure far more than they ever previously in times of peace were able to achieve and endure" Con- tinuing the thought, this writer as- sures us that men remember this stir ring experience afterward, and that all their lives they are able to meet ex. treme crises with supreme courage. They say themselves: "We bore this once - we can do it and bear it again"
 This thought is pleasant to contem- plate and we particularly recommend 1t to those timid citizens who are dis posed to Hook on the ,seamy side of war - shorn of all sentiment and sol emn obligations and count the cost of war without taking into consider. "f thc uitilhdle compensation It promises. There is a sordid side to every war, it is true, which at first blush seems to challenge the under standing of sober-thinking men and by US very brutality appears to violate every rule of reason. But, in larger and finer sense, there is a glorious side to every war, a side that fires the souls of men, that draws them out Of the shells of a smaller existence into the realm of larger things and summons them to almost superhuman achievements. These are the sacred attributes of war-inspired by the Al mighty himself - that time and again have accomplished the salvation of humanity when it was staggering un- der the weight of it's own humdrum existence
 We need only to scan the pages of American history to convince our. selves of this great truth. Out of the crueible of the revolution came a chas- | tened people. The founders of the great republic were of an inspired or der. No race of men ever walked the | earth with. higher or holier purposes than. they, and no mortals ever as- | sumed such solemn obligations, com.

Prospects for Oil Development

In view of the lack of petroleum
production in the State of Arizona
and the probability of its OCCUR
renee, the State Bureau of Mines
is publishing a series of bulletins
dealing with oil, two of which have
already been issued, Bulletin 65,
entitled Oil and Its Geology"
and Bulletin 90, entitled Pros
pecting for OIL" both by Milton
A. Allen. These may be obtained
any time from the office or the Bu-
reau at Tucson,
These bulletins present the oil
problem in its simplest form, Civ
ing it's general geology, methods
of prospecting, methods of drilling
and the legal side of the oil stu
alton, They are designed as e1e-
1nentary textbooks on oil for pros
pectors, to assist them in the dis
covery of oil deposits.
This subject has become increas-
ingly important, due to the in
creased use of oil for fuel and the
decreased supply.
Copies of this bulletin may be
obtained by writing Charles F,

Mines, Tucson.

Red Gross Christmas Cheer

The people of the United States
are approaching the Christmas hol-
idays under conditions this country
has meyer seen before, and more
over it is probable that this year
we shall not experience our most
sorroWful Christmas while this
world war RACES
With the thought of the nation
dwelling largely on the infinite
suffering abroad, on the certainty
that our own flesh and blood will
soon be enduring it's full share of
that suffering, and on the absence
from home of hundreds of thous-
ands of dear ones, Christmas 1917
will be a war Christmas.
Into this somber outlook the Red
Cross is seeking to bring something
of cheer. In a campaign lasting
from December 10 till Christmas
Eve it will ask for 10, 900, 900 new
members. It will urge these 10,-
900, 900 to become Red Cross
Christina" recruits, that they may
enable the Red Cross to tighten the
burden our army and navy and
those of our allies are called upon
to bear
This cooperation with the Red
Cross is real service of which we
may all be proud. And that this
service, when rendered by one may
be known to his neighbor, the Red
Cross will urge each old and each
new member to display at his home
a Red Cross service flag on which
each red cross stands for mem
ber.
The hundreds of thousands of
these flags already being shown by
old members will swell into mil
lions before Christmas, each flag
and each little cross bearing testi-
mony that some ones Christmas
has been made happier for himself
or herself, happier for our own
boys and happier for the soldiers
of our allies.
Let us all help to make this a
Red Chross Christmas which is
another way of saying: Let US
( make it the happiest Christmas
possible with the war clouds hang
i1g low.

Need of Economy and Saving

When we put q million and a
half soldiers in the field, we with
draw those men from productive
enterprises. They do not while
they are actually in training or in
service produce anything. They
do, On the other hand, consume
much. There is nothing more ex-
bensive on earth than to support
and maintaih a great army in the
field, especially if it is on the fight
ing line. The atttition of supplies
Is tremendously great when we
have a fighting army in the field.
America is the one great remain
ing storehQuse IL the world of Sup
plies and credit, We must mains
tain and make effective as possible
our own soldiers and the soldiers
of those nations who are fighting
for us, We must therefore draw
as little as possible upon Our COM
mon store Of supplies and money.
The more we lessen our domestic
demand, the more we can contrib
ute to the support and effectiveness
Of our allied armies.
Econemy is now national duty
such q duty upon the people at
home as fighting is upon those
Americans who are hravely offer
ing their lives for the honor of
America and the preservation Of
liberty and justice.
