WHAT RESPONSIBILITY MEANS

Responsibility isn't something that is brought to you. lifted and strapped onto your shoulder by another who says. Now this is yours; Il is responsibility. do vour best with it.
 It isn't the result of promotion-it is the f0rcrunner. Responsibility is not given. it is assumed You can't dodge it today and tackle it tomorrow. If you are irresponsible now, you will be more so then.
 If it were ours to teach a young man his first lesson it would be that he is a responsible being; that his greatest interest is the success of his employer; that anything which comes rndcr his notice which would save his employer loss CT add to his gain is his rcsponsib bility.
 The boy who stuck his finger in the hole in the dyke and prevented a disaster assumed a responsibility. When he discovered that little leak, stopping it became his work. There were no orders to do it; no one told him of the danger; it was not his task nor had his carelessness caused the trouble He merely recognized a need for usefulness and assumed f.
 This is responsibility. It wins pro- motion. it wins fortunes, it brings distinction and it betters the world. It averts disaster and prevents in justice; it avoids errors and it saves time: it means work but it also means happiness

CITY MUST SUPPLY
 HARRER WITH WATER

Judge Pattee issued a mandate yes terday that the city water be supplied to users who have refused to install water meters at their own expense. Judge Pattee, who sat in the hearing in which both Judge Lyman and Judge Stanford were disqualified ordered that the mandate contain the express provision that il was issued without prejudice to any future act that the city might take in regard to the meters He contended that the city had not yet taken any action justifying it's demand that the meters be installed
 The proceeding was brought by Dav- i'd B. Harrer against the city, the mayor, the city commissioners and the general manager of the water depart ment. Harrer who lives outside the city limits under contract with the city was paying at the rate of $ a month for water. This contract has been in effect for years and was made to those individuals who paid for the installation of pipes. The city contend ed that it was losing money in the out lying districts and ordered meters put in. The issue in the mandamus action was whether or not the rule required the buyer of water to install the meter at his own expense.
 The court ruled that the city had not taken proper steps toward it's accom- plishment.
 The plaintiff was represented by Ray A. Hall, J. J. Cox and H. E. Moore. and the city by Assistant City Attorney J. F.. Nelson.

THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN THURSDAY MORNING. JANUARY 25 1917
THIS HOLIDAY |S
 SAFE, SANE AND
 WITHOUT EXPENSE

Each of our national holidays is ob- served or celebrated in such style as is particularly tittlng to the day-Thrift Day included.
 There is something unique and re- freshingly new in the idea of a "cele- bratiOn" that leaves one in a better state of mind and body and, moreover a fatter purse! But that is the case with Thrift Day-the more one cele- brates the more one saves!
 It was and is intended that Thrift Day should be celebrated. The uniyer- sal interest and wholesome response indicates that to be the accepted mean iIg. In some localities it has become a very important affair in business, so- cial and home life, insomuch that en- tire communities have responded in concert Housing mass meetings have been held with speeches and special music. The city officials, newspapers and prominent citizens have made the day one Of special personal attention Individuals have organized clubs; clubs into cooperative organizations, and these into town. city and county wide thrift movements.
 The beneficial effect has been so di- rect and certain that the improvement in personal, home and civic pride is no- ticeahle in many ways.
 Many results like these have been accomplished although Thrift Day is scarcely year old. This one coming will be the second annual observance and bids fair to exceed in enthusiasm the first.
 Thrift Day should be a real enthus- iastic celebration. And those who celebrate can go the limit of TO dical thrift without even so much as a head ache the next day All the enthusiasm of the Spirit of re- can be anulied to the Thrift of IT.; and the harder" celebrates. the better will he feel next morning and the rest of his whole
