SWATT|NC THE HUN
 IN VACATION TIME

Now that schools are closing all over Arizona, the state council of de- fense suggests that teachers and parents cooperate in plans that will utilize the services of sturdy boys and girls for a fair share of the vacation period. It is not believed well to entirely eliminate the period of recre- ation; it is necessary to every grow ing lad and lassie. Yet a change of work sometimes is restful, especially after a long grind at the desk.
 In some localities the girls already are busy in the orchards, picking fruit and drying and preserving it, thus saving even the part of the crop that ordinarily is unstable in the market. But bird-pecked or small fruit often is as good as the most showy when made into preserves. Too much fruit has been wasted in Ari- zona heretofore.
 Many of the girls, too, may take places in stores and shops for the summer, liberating boys for the rougher work of the fields. The boys from the schools have a much wider field than that of their sisters and should feel that their labor is a prec- iouS thing to be devoted primarily to the service of a country for which they still are to young to bear arms

BAND SOON MAY BE
 CALLED ID FRANCE

Carl Anderson, president of the Automobile club, reports that the 15Sth Infantry band, which is soon to tour this state, will probably make on this occasion it's last public appearance in Arizona before going to the front. Word from good authority states that the band may be called back to go to France before the tour is finished, as the troops at Camp Kearny are pre- pairing to leave any moment.
 When not engaged in actual playing on the battlefield, the band boys act as stretcber bearers and are thus en- gagged in the thickest and hardest of the fighting. The banG boys give as much to the cause and work as hard as in any other branch of the service If the Arizona people realize that these young men will soon take an active part on the battlefields of France their reception will undoubtedly be large and inspiring.
 The Red Cross or the Thrift activi- ties are preparing to entertain the boys in each town in which they will visit when in this state Among the enter tainments being arranged in this city
 is that of the Brandon brothers. They have planned grand reception to take place at Riverside park and have also donated the use of the Ellls theater for concerts. The exact day of the arrival of the band here has not yet been decided

COLORED MARCHERS' CALL

To our colored brothers: Notice has been sent out that every able bodied man is expected to take part in the parade this evening or to be considered a stacker. 1 hope that it will not fall to the lot of any of our citizens to be classed as such. The government is keeping close tab on all and although you may be all right in heart you must get out and show by deeds, not alone words. The colored people of Phoe- nix can make a good showing by turn ing out, not by staying at home or standing on some street corner.
 The day of standing around has passed. It is our duty to give what ever assistance we possibly can. I know that many do not realize the seriousness of this war; everything is at stake, not only the honor of the country, but your liberty as well. Don't sleep on your arms. We have never faltered in the past and will not do so now if every man will do his part. I hope to see every able bodied colored man in Phoenix in the parade this evening. Show that you are no stacker. It has been put up to you by the com mittee in charge, so turn out and show that you are man.

COMES ID INSPECT
 NEW PIPE MACHINE

Prof. C.. E. B. Smith of the agricultural extension service of the University of Arizona is in the city. He came to inspect a cement pipe making ma chine which he had learned was in operation at Glendale. There is a machine for making cement pipe at the university, and a bulletin was about to be issued concerning it. It was then that the Glendale machine was heard of and Professor Smith came to see it.
 He finds that it is an excellent machine, though quite different from the university machine. The latter operates on the centrifugal principle, by throwing the cement against the forms from a rapidly rotating shaft. The Glendale machine operates by tamping.
 Professor Smith believes that in time the water for irrigation in thIs valley will be carried through cement pipes or cement lined ditches to the great saving of water and the great extension of the irrigated area.

CALVARY BAPTIST LEADS STAMP SALE

Cavalry Baptist church holds first place thus far in the church contest in the sale of Thrift stamps, it is an- nounced. During the eight days sale at the postoffice the workers of that church sold s7,000 worth of stamps. Cavalry Baptist church sold more stamps per day than has been sold by any other church and it also holds the record for the highest sale for one day by any church.
 The committee in charge of this fea- ture of the Thrift stamp campaign state that they take their hats off to this church and to it's faithful work CTS, but they announce that they are hoping that some other church soon will set an even higher mark. All of the workers become extremely inter- ested and enthusiastic over the work of selling stamps after they have been engaged in it a short time. Most of them are keen to assist again.
 Thus far, the churches of Phoenix have sold about $37, 900 worth of Thrift stamps since April l. The church peo- pie have announced that they will continue to sell War Savings stamps at the postoffice as long as the war lasts. All are urged to spend 25-cent piece in the purchase of a Thrift stamp. Other methods also vii be en- ployed to secure this countys share of s16,000, 900, 900 it needs during the next twelve months. but they insist there 1 is no method so simple and so helpful to all as the Thrift stamp method Buy at least one every time you go to 1 the postoffice.
 The Congregational church will have charge of the postoffice booth unti Friday evening. On Saturday, June 1 the table will be in charge of the Free Methodist church. The Bethel Meth dist church will take it on June 2 fol 10 days. The contest between the churches is getting keen.

COMMUNITY CHORUS
 WILL SING 'EL|JAA"

The Community chorus, composed of practically all the singers in Phoenix, are going to give a concert in the lat ter part of June.
 The music for the oratorio Elijah by Mendelssohn, has arrived and the first rehearsal will be held on Monaay evening at o'clock at the school ad- ministration building on North First avenue. Dr. George Edwin Blair, the newly elected president of the chorus, states that all the members are very enthusiastic. and the membership com- mittee has listed about 140 voices making it the largest chorus ever got- ten together in Arizona.
 An orchestra of fifteen to twenty pieces is being organized to accompany the chorus. which was organized at the request of the council of defense to appear at all patriotic meetings.
 We are meeting with a great deal of success in enrolling members" said Dr. Blair, 'as they all feel that it is a patriotic duty, and we want every singer in Phoenix to join. It may be that the membership committee has not seen all the singers, so we ask those who would like to join to be at rehearsal Monday night.
 William Conrad Mills is the musical director, and with the talent in Phoe- nix, the chorus should become a most prominent musical organization

In some of the eastern states an official arm band has been adopted as insignia for women doing war service. It is of aki-colored cotton cloth, with the name of the state or its coat of arms and with the words Council of Defense" A regulation uniform is considered impracticable.
 In an eastern farming community wealthy German farmer refused to buy Liberty bonds-said he did not consid- CT it a good investment and he did not want to supply money with which to buy ammunition that might kill his relatives. Investigation found that this man had landed in the states with Ss0 and that he had fled from Prussia to avoid the military draft. He ac- quired section of fine land and had a bank deposit of S20,000. The sheriff of the county was made a committee of one to visit the farmer, to hand him the sum of $50 and to tell him that his place was not in that community that the lSiser needed him and he should be across the sea The point was appreciated. The farmer sub scribed at once to 5000 bond.

WARTIME SPIRIT
 IN SONGS COMPOSED
 BY PHOENIX WOMAN

In spirit With the times, Mrs. W. R. Battin, one of the best known local composers, has had published her two most recent war compositions We Are Coming Allies, Coming" which critics declare is a Hooverized ginger snap, and 'U. S. Boys," which has been dedi- cated to the boys of the U. s. A. The songs have been sung locally with great success, and now that copies have been received from the Arizona Piano company, the publishers, and placed at the down town music stores, they will unquestionably be the most | popular songs of the hour. Mrs. Battin is earning her Liberty bond by the sale of her music which she sang for the first time before the | federation of clubs. During the Lib erty loan campaign the songs. were sung on the streets of Phoenix by Miss | Clara Hazard. A number of copies are being forwarded to the boys in camp and cantonment.
 Mrs. Battin is the author of both the words and music. The words follow: We Are Coming Allies, Coming! France calls today, we'll not say nay, We'll send our boys to fight. They want to go yes, sure 'tis so, To help for freedom and the right
 your right,
 Our Allies all, we hear the call, Come OCT to crush the foe, And when Uncle Sammy crosses OCT
 the sea, you'll know He is there for victory.
 They're telling lies, these Teuton spies, And causing men to strike; Our government will soon give vent And teach you all what war is like, yes like,
 Our ships will sail soon, without fail, With all necessities,
 And the flags of all the Allies stand for Liberty,
 They will wave for you and me.
 Chorus
 We are coming, Allies, coming, Cross the sea to fight for peace. And when all our plans start humming, Then our guns will never cease. For the Kaiser's going to know us, And the us in U. s. A.
 For we're going to win the war, boys, To the Allies here's hoo-ray. U. s. A. Boys
 United States of America, boys, is a
 peace-loving nation and that we
 all know, In trying to be fair we have been or
 the square to our borderland country and those cross the sea l But when our ships sail with United
 mail and with women and chil- l dren and men on the decks. You'd better ~-" that she's safe as car l be. or we'll show you what we
 can do.
 Wars been declared and the Teutons have dared us to show them tha'
 we stand for rights on the seas So we'll send OCT our boys with tho s Allies to fight and sure victory will crown them with peace fol |" the right
 But you just wait and we'll show vol the fate of the nations that try
 to tramp us under foot, For the boys of the army and navy anC
 air, we'll be true to the U. s. A
 Chorus
 Do we all love U. $. Boys?
 Well, should say that we do, : When wars in sight our boys vii fight
 For freedom, honor. too.
 We'll always sing U. s. A. boys, And our flag that's the best,- Red, White and Blue we'll be true t '' you;
 Here's to the U. s. A.

SHOULD TAKE DOWN
 ALL OLD POSTERS

The Arizona council of defense urges that all out of date cards and patriotic advertising be destroyed al once. It is poor business to allow old Liberty loan posters to remain on space that better could be filled by Red Cross or recruiting material. Clean out all advertising matter that has done it's work. Its continued display only interferes with whatever work there is on hand and hurts the value of the advertising that is to be-
 There is going to be more Liberty loan campaigns and there will be many patriotic drives before blessed peace finally comes. and there should be care that each campaign shall not interfere with any other. So take in everything that does not concern the subject just now on hand.
