The chief part of the burden of finding food supplies
for the people associated with falls for the pres

plies such scale necessarily affects the prices of our
necessaries of life
Our country, however, is blessed with an abundance
of foodstus and if people will economic in their use
OF food, providenty confnng themselves to the quan
ties required for the maintenance of health and strength
if they will eliminate wase and if they will make use of

world now dependent upon u.s. shall not only be able
to accomplish obligations to them but shall obtain
and establish reasonable prices at home.
To provide adequate supply of food both for our
soldiers the other side of the and for the civil

and foremost obligations; for if to maintain their
constancy in this struggle for independence of all the

The solution of food problems therefore dependent

child in the United States The great voluntary effort in
this direction which has been initiated and organized by
the food administration under my direction offers an o
portunity in the which is open to every Individual
and by which every Individual may serve both his own
people and the peoples of the world
We cannot accomplish objects in this great war
without sacrifice and devotion and no direction can
that sacrifice and devotion be shown more than by each
home and public eating place in the country pedgng it's

MRS. GREGG IS
SERIOUSLY BURNED
IN IRIS BL' 'DG FIRE

Mrs. Walter Gregg was severely
burned and the Iris theater building
badly damaged by fire at 4 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon.
Mrs. Gregg was washing silk goods
in gasoline, and friction ignited the
fluid. Men on the street, hearing her
screams, rushed up the stairs and sue
ceeded in extinguishing the flames
around her before she was fatally
burned.
Mrs. Gregg was removed to the Ray
Consolidated hospital, where the
burns were dressed. The most seri-
GUS burns are on her arms.
The Ray Consolidated volunteer fire
department made quick run and con-
quered the flames to the theater build
ing, which was damaged to the extent
of $1,000. Owing to the bulging of
the front wall, rope was stretched
half way across the street. The wall
will probably have to be pulled down.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gregg occupied apart
ments upstairs in. the front of the
building. They lost clothes and fur
niture valued at $500, with no insur-
ance.
Bargman, the jeweler, and William
Philopson, barber, occupied rooms be-
low. They were forced to move, but
suffered little damage beyond the time
lost until they can procure new quar-
ters. The building, owned by George
Mauk, of Phoenix, was insured. Mr..
Mauk came on Thursday and will start
at once. He will also place
a roof on the open-air theater.

A PROCLAMATION
BY THE GOVERNOR OF ARIZONA
Executive Department
State OF Arizona
TO THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA:
In the midst Of war and preparation
for war, while we are all intensely in
terested in Red Cross, Y. M. c. A.
army work, the purchase of Liberty
Bonds and other activities, looking to
the successful termination of this war;
it is an equally important duty to
"protect the home base" by seeing to
it that we do not make the mistake
made in the beginning of this conflict
by other nations in failing to remem-
Der the children and youth at home.
The future of our state and nation
depends in largest measure on the
training of our boys and girls along
moral lines, and no force in the state
exerts a more lasting influence for
good upon the lives of our youth than
the Sunday schools, which are dis
tinctIy the religious educational insti-
tutions Of Arizona.
Now, Therefore, l, Thomas e. Camp
bell, by the power in me reposed, and
in harmony with other governors and
the program of the international Co.
to-Sunday-ech Day, do hereby set
apart Sunday, November fourth, nine
teen-seventeen, as "GO TO SUNDAY
SCHOOL SUNDAY" for the State of
Arizona; and would urge all persons
to attend the church or the Sunday
school of their choice on that day,
thus proving their allegiance to the
best and most wholesome influence
which surrounds the youth Of our be-
loved state.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, have
hereunto set my hand and caused the
Great Seal of the State OF Arizona to
be affixed.
Done at Phoenix, the Capital, this
26th day of October, A. D. 1912.
