H. |. 1T 1. TO SEND LAUNDRY
 PRICES H|CHER

Giving in at last to the pressure from increasing prices fuel, labor and sup
 plies the laundries of Phoenix have an nounced an increase in prices of laun-
 dry work It is said that the net results of the increase amounts to a total of about 10 per cent About p per cent of the wagons on both the family flat work list and the regular list are eff fected. This raise fn prices, the laundry men say is the first that has been made since the war has brought about general advance in all costs. It is generally admitted that one of the hardest prices to increase in any busi-
 ness is laundry.
 Laundrymen of Phoenix have been considering an increase for long time, and the final conclusion is a very small increase in most items. There is but little increase in the family list As far as possible the increase was confined % laundry items as applied to single men, such items as towels, table pads, apr0ns.- overshirts, shirts with pleated cuffs, cotton drawers, cotton under shirts, union suits, nightshirts, pajamas and socks, are the same as formerly. Among some of the items that show an increase are napkins, handkerchiefs collers, cuffs and silk shirts Collars formerly costing 3c will now cost 31ac. Among other items in which there. is a small increase are silk shirts. pleated
 shirts, and wash pants. Another item
 that has been increased are the white coats of barbers. This will not mate
 rially effect the barbers until next fall
 in as much as white coats are not gen
 orally worn in the summertime by the
 barbers.
 In commenting upon the Increase of
 the supplies attention was called to the
 act that fuel formerly cost s1,60 bar
 rel now costs s2. This u4r/
 he laundry alone made in increase of
 S125 month. Prices are very maLeIlal-
 ly increased on soap, bluing, and on
 wrapping paper.

pay $12.50 per month. In some cases the county pays this and in other cases the parent pays.
 At present three women do the work of the home. These women are com petent and well adjusted to the work The children are well fed, clothed, sent to school when old enough, mothered, cared for on the playground and given every possible aid in their character development No distinction is made along racial or religious lines but most of the children handled are nominal Protestants and all negro children will be cared for outside the regular home. The home is wide open at all hours of the day for inspection and visitors are welcome. It is always best to call up some member of the board before visiting the home. Some one will be glad to accompany visitors to the home.
 Our immediate need is money with which to buy food, pay rent, pay help and other bills. Food, clothing, bed ding, furniture or any thing that can be used, will be appreciated. Lodges, clubs, churches and individuals are invited to help this most worthy and needy cause within our state.
 Send all money and supplies to Mrs !. w. Buchanan, 1239 North Sixth avenue, Tucson, Arizona. Rev. F. D. Raley of 1416 East Me Kinley street, Phoenix, Arizona, is the newly elected superintendent of the home. All questions concerning adop- tion or placing children in the home shoudl come to him.
 "The first asset of any state or peo- l,,1n iesi itc no nari1 n any state is in it's neglect of the physi- cal, mental and moral well being ot it's children. No investment will re- turn larger dividends to a state or in dividual than the investment 1T childhood"
 One dollar spent now for the home less or neelested child will save tho state hundreds of dollars in few years.

OzRO HENR|E E
 AN UNDESIRABLE

Ozro Henrie is persona non grata in this community and such man would probably be so held in any community. In the meantime he is being held in the county jail until some means can be found to get rid of him. Henrie has been resident in this vicinity since last January and most of that time has had remunerative employment, in spite of which he had become a sort of nuis- ance to his acquaintances because of so often touching them for money which he said he wanted to send to his family in Idaho.
 But he had never done anything to bring him squarely against the law until the other day he went to the Sis ters hospital where a fellow employe, nearly blind. was lying for treatment. Henrie wanted to borrow a small sum of money from him. His friend, one O'Reilly, had nothing less than d 9zu bill and Henrie took that out to get it changed. He kept it all and his arrest

STATEMENT MADE BY
 HOME ASSOCIATION

The Arizona Childrens Home asso- citation is an institution located in Tucson, Arizona.
 It's business is to find homes for the homeless children of the state and to provide an orphanage home for those. who, for various reasons are not adopted or may not be for adoption
 For seventeen years the work has 1 been done by the California society, through Rev A. H. Gunnett and the work has been well done Two years ago the work was started in this state and has grown so rapidly and efficiently, that it seemed best to the California society to turn over all it's work to the Arizona home and re- tire from the field This transaction is in process now and will be con- summated ny the first of June
 The Arizona association has applied
 for and has been promised admission into the national organiza ton at the national convention to be held in Pittsburg, Pa. June 5-6, 1917. During the two years of work by the Arizona home, one hundred and thirty children have passed through the home.
 Thirty-five children are now in the home. Only three of them are for adoption.
 We have requests for room for sev- eral other children at the present mo- ment, but we have no room for them. We rent two buildings and will rent another as soon as funds can be se- cured for rent and furnishings. It is our plan to build a modern building, adapted to the needs of the home as soon as men of means can be interested in this needy work.
 It costs about s400 per month to run the home at present. Most of this support comes from the friends wht have become interested in the work The rest comes from those who have
 sent their children to the home anl

on warrant out of Justice Wheeler's court, followed.
 Then his friends whom he had an noyed with his frequent opportunities for money made an investigation. They searched his room and found pack age of letters from his mother and his wife, who live at Driggs, Idaho The letters were pitiful missives, describ- ing conditions of grinding poverty One of his children had died of starvation. It was made known by the letters that his family had received nothing from him. His mother and wife appeared to be devoted to him. There was no bitter complaint but an expressed hope that he might be able to do something for them.
 If there is law in Idaho holding non support to be a crime, as it is in Arizona Henrie will probably be sent for and no effort will be made here to hold him.

WANT SCHOOLS A5 CAMPS FUR
 BUY LAbORERS

County School Superintendent Fulton has had the question of the mobiliza
 tion of the boys of the county to as
 sist in fighting Germany by agricul- tural activities put up to him. He was
 been asked about the possible use of
 the schoolhouses for headquarters dur
 ing the summer months for organized
 squads of schoolboys who expect to
 work in adjacent fields under the guid-
 ance of foremen; and also about the
 use of the domestic science quarters
 of the school houses for earring for fruits and vegetables by canning or otherwise preserving them, as a means of assisting in food conservation. The county school superintendent has been assured that the fOremen in charge of the boys and the matron In charge of opera tions in the domestic science departments will be responsible for the use, care and protection of the pubic
 school property so used. The superin- tendent states that the public school 1 property in each districtsis under the absolute control of the board of trustees
 of that district and neither the school
 superintendent or any one else can presume to supersede their authority
 over the property.
 The superintendent, however, asks | the boards of trustees to consider the matter carefully and when they think they have sufficient assurance of the proper care of the property, he earnest Iy recommends that they permit the school propert" to be used for such q purpose.
 At all these school buildings there is a good supply of water and generally, good camping facilities and in the do- nestle science departments of many of
 the schools there are fairly good facili- ties for handlino fruits and vegetables. He thinks it is the duty of every com
 munity to do all that is reasonably
 within it's power to encourage the con-

Except for the shattering of windows
no damage was done in Judge Loring's
