Gregory. of East Orange, entered the
homeopathic Hospital here to-day to
have an intestinal operation performed,
his tonsils removed and two toes am

1t was on his seventh visit to an

that he learned why the examining
board had turned him down so per-
sistently. AS soon as he discovered
what would have to be done before he
could enlist he went TO the hospital.

 AID Y NAR TASK

c. E. Simmons, secretary of the boys department of the local Y. M. C. A., left last night on a tour of Arizona New Mexico and Western Texas, in behalf of the campaign to raise funds for the association war work.
 The selection of MT. Simmons for this important work is a recognition of his unusual ability, and indirectly is a compliment to Phoenix.
 fund of s3,000,000 is what the boys of the association throughout the United States have pledged to raise for war work The association as a whole must raise millions of dollars if the soldiers in training in the United States and those fighting in the trenches of Europe are to be given the only chance they will have for recrea- tion and relaxation from the frightful strain of trench life.
 The boy members of the association, including those members up to IS years of age. will play no small part in the raising of this enormous fund. and it is for the purpose of directing the work of the lads in the southwest ern department that MT. Simmons is making the tour. He will also enlist the aid of the business men of the ter ritory he is going to cover, and for this purpose he will address gatherings of business men in every city and town he visits. His schedule calls for 40 such addresses to be made enroute

Ribulous Patriotism

We noticed the other day a curious appeal to patriotism. In the window :. a wholesale and family liquor in eastern city Ia. ge card ad versing famous brand of whisky. Tie card set forth the price at which the whisky formerly sold the present price; the former revenue tax of $110 a gallon and the present tax of $2.10 One gath cred that sellers of the whisky magnanimous then the government for they had increased the price per gallon by something less than ST.
 There was an invitation to those of patriotic discomfiture of the Germans by buying and consum- ing large quantities of this excellent whisky; gallon meant clear gift the gove1 nment of g. Here was an outlet outbuEsI of the patriotic spirit.
 It was Dr. Johnson, we believe, who declared that patriotism is the last refuge If the scoundrel and believe that but it with something of the thrill of novelty that we re Id this invitation assist in this way in making the world safe for democracy
 is that when buys a gallon, a quart drink of alcoholic liquor he is paying so much into the government treasury just he does when he buys cigar, a cigarette, tobacco in any form railway Pullman ticket.
 The new tax law makes a draft upon all who buy any of the luxures Of life and many of it's cessities But many of the iuxures especially whisky can better be dispensed with that if has other object than to help the out would be better to send $21G directly the United States treasury and leave the gallon of whisky in stock One would himself the dealers profit and the some tme avoid headaches and general physical and mental deterioration. He would be useful citizen, better fitted serve the government, either as a soldier producer.
 It is so in lesser degree with the other uxuries
 But leaving whisky of the discussion, it may be argued that abandoned all luxures, there would be disturbance and shut down of many industries in which thousands find employment. That would be the reseut in ordinary times but not markedly at this time when the demand for labor and capital in useful necessary productive industry greater than the supply.

 TO BE SHOWN

Failure on the part of Mrs. Guy H. Baker. Ms Samuel A. Meyer, Mrs. Jacob L. Parkhurst and Mrs. Sidney H. Eckert to forward their addresses after making entries in the Better Babies Contest has made it impossible for the committee to make appoint ments for them. Mrs. Frank A. Beane- chairman of the publicity committee, yesterday stated that she hoped to come in touch with them through the to forward their address to Mrs Charles Howe
 City entries should send street and number" said Mrs. Beane, who asked that country entrants send route and box number. The committee, she stated, would accept entries this week for babies in the contest.
 Appointments will be sent out soon in order to have all the babies exam ined. Each person receiving an ap- pointment should be there at the ap- pointed time for physicians and nurses can not be kept waiting. Any babies having colds can not be examined at this time.
 Another request made by Mrs. Beane is that all parents of babies having re- ceiyed medals at Better Babies contests held at the fair grounds during fair week for the past three years send photographs of the baby to Mrs. J. C. Norton at the earliest possible date.>
 We are proud of our medal babies and are anxious for the photographs to exhibit them at the Better Baby build ing"

REDMOND REPEATS SUCCESS IF AL H|S
 FORMER FEATURES

How they keep it up is the marvel that there is no doubt but that the Red mond company has caught on in won derful style at the Elks and the latest offering, given it's premier Monday night, Let's Get Divorce" proved as successful as all of it's predecessors have been.
 MT. Redmond has had no better op- portunity for his pleasing brand of humor than in this weeks bill, in fact. rot so much last week as this, and this in itself means that the show steps lively from the state. The whole pro- duction is staged in the usual elabor- ate fashion and the chorus and spe- cialty features are notably good, es- pecially the eccentric dance in the sec ond act by Minor Reed and the girls. It is a novelty number which made decided hit as did Miss Dingwall's two numbers ana the songs by Miss Ham, mond, Nil. Kemper and Mr.. Cochran. MT. Reed is the man who two brushes in hand, does the scenery every week for the Redmond shows How he does it is worthy of a story all by its:lf while his acting and dancing makes him. one of the most valued members of the cast.
 Miss Dingwall was especially effec- lively cast last evening and her voice was never heard to better advantage. Of course Miss Hammond and the girls in the popular "TinGle- -ingleing' sons. took encores until they were tired and Robbie makes the most of her dane ing opportunities, WEIGH are two and all too few.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
 LAY |S SUNDAY

The average attendance in these various schoo.. :s fir m 2,7a0 to 5000. To double the larger of these two figures is the goal set.
 Governor Campbell, in his proclama- tion designating November as Ari- zona GO to Sunday -.School Day" says;
 The future of our state and nation depends in largest measure on the training of our boys and girls along moral lines and no forces in the state exerts a more lasting influence for good upon the lives of eur youth than the Sunday schools, which are distinctly the religious educational institutions of Arizona"
 The aim and purpose of the day is to emphasize the importance of re- ligioIS education to each and every citizen of the commonwealth. No single branch of beneficent human en- deavor is more comprehensively or ganized than is the Sunday school work. It provides for and furnishes religious encouragement and education from the cradle to the grave. No baby Is too young to be @ member of the cradle roll, and no one is so old de- crepit, Or shut-in as to be out of the reach of the home department.

Some folks had an idea that religious grounds might forbid their signing a pledge to depart from food wastage, possibly on the idea that the more waste the less war. Some folks thought their physical state might be hurt by the obligation to save food insofar as their circumstances might permit. There had to be a bit of explanation here and there.

No Peace Without Victory

There can be compromise between right and wrong. One or the other must triumph or the struggle between them must end temporarily in exhaustion to be renewed with recuperation. Honest misunderstanding may be compromised though of the parties to the dispute may be wholly in the right and the other, wholly in the But principles cannot be compromised; they either be triumphant abandoned.
 That is why there can be no peace in the world now without a complete victory of the allies over Germany An uncomprom isng principle is involved in the conflict. Either the doctrine of democracy must be abandoned the right nations to govern themselves in their way, else the power which might become enough to deprive them of shats right. must be forever removed. That power the world now recognizes lies in Prussianism. We per eeve that it has always lain in Prussanism but it had hitherto been latent and unseen.
 It Is now apparent; no man can fail to recognize that long it exists there be no safety for either democracy any other form of government. No nation can be sure that it will not under the domination cf Prussanism Though be conquered in this struggle and though humiliat- ing peace be forced Germany, if the seed of Prussianism remains the danger the world will still exist. An operation which fails to remove every cell and tissue the cancer is failure and usually than a failure.
 This view recently elaborated by former President Taft in address at Montreal the sub ject of The Menace of a Peace" in which he said
 The Allies fighting for principle the main tenance of which affects of civilization they do not achieve they sacrificed the flower of their youth and mortgaged their future for century and all for nothing. This is not war in winch the stake is territory the sphere of influence of nation another. The Allies peace until they conquer it. When they do so it will be permanent. Otherwise they fail.
