THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, SUNDAY MORNING. APRIL
NORMAL BEATEN
BYPHOEN|X HIGH

Phoenix high chool was winner by
one point over the Tempe Normal
school team yesterday, when Coffin of
Tempe knocked pop fly to left field.
When the dust cleared and Tempe
opened her eyes the score was to
in favor of T. H. S
The Tempe team looked very nice in
their bright red suits and they put up
good scrap. If an army recruiting
officer had appeared on the scene for
recruits he would have probably found
several men in the Tempe team too old
to enlist.
The game was a fast one from start
to finish, made especially interesting
by one of the umpires, who had poor
eyesight.
Here is the record of the game as
seen through the eyes of the score

THE FARMERS AND FOOD CONTROL

Louis w. Hill, president of the Great Northern rail-
road. is certain that the farmers will not stand for
Herbert c. Hoover's price fixing on wheat. He gave out
quite an interview in Spokane on the subject and pre-
dicted that Hoover would be a very unpopular man be-
fore he got through with the farmers.
Naturally anything that smacks of autocratic power
is bound to be unpopular in this country. 1t will be
no easy matter for any American, farmer or other cit
izen. to accustom himself to the straight jacket and this
is what this war seems to mean.
Bat there is little danger of the farmer getting the
idea that there is a frame-up against him in this matter
of Drice-hxing. When il is recalled that on the wheat
price-fxing commission there is the president of the
farmers union of the south, the president of the national
corn association, the president of a northwestern agri-
cultural college, the secretary of the national council of
the farmers cooperative association and the master Of
the Ohio state grange, there would seem to be little
ground for Mr.. Hills uneasiness.
And when it comes right down to brass tacks, Louis
w. Hill is not considered much of a farmer anyhow.

treason on the tip of their tongues. They are familiar
with the laws on the subject of sedition and treason.
They know just how far they may go and just when they
must stop. They seem to challenge each other as to
which can crowd closest to open and brazen treason
with out being caught in the grip of the law. And the
government seems to be giving them all the rope they
desire. Perhaps it is just as we'll. Perhaps the most
effective way to remove this curse from America is to
let it develop completely and expose itself SO thoroughly
that there will be no question as to the facts when the
day of reckoning comes. And that day may be close
at hand.

How many farmers have figured out
the difference in the cost of hauling
their crops to market over the roads
as they are at present and what it
would be if they were level, or prac-
tically so? Horse power costs
and each additional hundred pounds
that can be added to the load lowers
the cost of transportation. Why not
put the money that is spent annually
in buying and feeding extra horses in
to a fund for the improvement of the
roads, paying it in the shape of taxes

Good Roads Notes
By F. c. MCGOWAN

proyement of our highways and since
there is now a disposition on the part
of the people of this county to work
out practical methods for providing
better roads, the time seems suspicious
for advocating a first class highway
from Bovill, via Helmer, Deary, Troy
and Cornwall to- Moscow, the county
seat.
There is probably more travel on
the road leading from Bovill to Mos
COW than on any other road in the
county. No other road needs such
constant repair and probably no 9TH
er road gets less.
Our idea would be to organize a
state highway district, to include the
territory that would be benefited by
such a trunk road, and thereby get in
line for securing money from the state
and federal road funds. These cannot
be touched until such action has been
taken. The government will appropri-
ate an amount equal to hat voted by a
regularly organized highway district.
A row of highway districts could
be organized along the route that
in no way interfere with the
subsequent creation Of districts on

THE LIBRARY HABIT

The Saturday Evening Post voices. a plea for more
library publicity. Libraries are full of information,
their stats are courteous and attentive, eager to help
people to find just the right book or bit Of Information
they are seeking. But, although the library is working
efficiently and we'll for the people who seek its help,
it's existence seems to be unknown to many more people
who ought to be using it.
Men and women write to their newspaper or to
their favorite magazine for information which they
could obtain easily and promptly at the nearest public
library. Is it that they don't know about the library?
Or have they simply neglected to form the library
habit?
The libraries are actually doing a great deal of adj
yertising. All sorts of schemes have been devised for
getting their work before the public. In some com
munities library books and attractive posters telling of
library work are put in prominent places in store win
dows. Gas companies in some places have consented
to enclose notices about the local libraries in their
monthly statements. Innumerable systems of travelling
libraries, branch Libraries, book loans, etc, have been
organized for interesting people and making the library
more useful.
Perhaps too much emphasis has been placed on the
circulation of books, The fact that the librarian, as
we'll as the books in his charge, can furnish informa-
ton has been overlooked. People are apt to think of
the library as shelves and shelves of books, a be-
wildering amount of reading matter. 1t seems much
easier to write to a paper or magazine for desired in
formation than to go to the library and seek it for
oneself.
That shouldn't be so.-Let the libraries advertise not
books alone, but the information in those books, the
card index and reference works that make that informa-
ton available and the well-informed, courteous librarian
ready to help get at it. Then, it is more than likely,
the public will get the library habit.
