DR. ]. ]. LITTLE
 FUR FIRST AID

The Red Cross First Aid committee has appointed Dr. s. D. Little to act as instructor of the First Aid class which meets on Monday and Friday evenings at 7:30 o'clock at the Central school building Dr. Little has accept ed this call to do his bit with patriotic enthusiasm and is planning splendid series of lectures and practical demon- strations on the subjects required by the Red Cross.
 The First Aid course for women coV- CTS General Directions for First Aid"; bandaging: injuries in which the skin is not broken (bruises, sprains. dis locations, etc); wounds, bleeding, in juries due to heat or cold; suffocation and artificial respiration (drowning electric shock, gas poisoning, and hang ing); unconsciousness and insensibil- ity; poisoning, common emergencies, carrying and home preparations for sick and injured.
 The organization of the various Red Cross classes was temporarily held up by the decision of the bureau of in structions of the American Red Cross to decentralze the work and delegate to the first aid committees of local chapters the authority formerly eXer- cised at Washington in connection with the formation and subsequent super vision of First Aid instruction classes 1 This decentralization was made neces- sary by the unprecedented spread of the work within the past year, in which time 900 classes have been or ganized, 75,000 certificates of efficiency have been issued by the Amerian Red Cross and 7,500 physicians have served as instructors and examiners for these classes throughout the country The Bureau of Instruction believes i that it is of the greatest importance at this time to train American womer in first aid home care of the sick and home dietetics, in order that they may deal competently with emergen- cSes in their own households and reduce the demand on the depleted ranks oi < professional nurses. For this reason they have increased the authority o1 local first aid committees and elimin- ated the delay in organization formerly experienced.
 Registration may now be received a any time and classes formed when { nor more than 25) have enrolled. Reg i istration cards may be secured at thu
 Red Cross headquarters at the Phoe
 nix chamber of commerce.
 In addition to the regular lectures
 the First Aid committee plans to us
 a number of educational slides illus trating first aid subjects which are nov
 supplied by the Stereoptican Loan Ii | brary of the United States Public
 Health Service at Washington.

PRICE IF WHEAT
 |S UNDER FIRE

well known farmer near Phoenix in conversation with representa- tive of The Republican suggested the other day that the average farmer, one who raises the usual farm crops, not counting cotton, is a sufferer from the war; he is bearing more than his share of the burden of it and is reap ing none of the profits which accrue to all or nearly all, who are handling the products of the farmer, the dairy man and the poultry raiser.
 He was speaking more particularly Of statement at a late meeting of the millers that the farmer would get or should get s3.50 hundred for wheat next year. Why only s3.5O? The farmers of Kansas are getting and will get $2.20 a bushel or S3.67 hundred. About half the wheat used by the mills of this state comes from Kansas and the millers who get Kan sas wheat next year will pay S367 a hundred. Why then is IT cents to be cut from the wheat of the valley farmers? he asks. More than that Arizona millers will pay 67 cents a hundred freight on Kansas wheat making SABA that wheat will cost them as against the proposed S3.5O valley wheat.
 Said this farmer. while all the rest Of the people are talking patriotism and getting as much as they can out of the war, the farmers will probably join in the patriotic concert and plant those crops that will bring them the greatest profit.

Has Anybody Here Seen Sidewalks? ?T

It rained yesterday, and thoss pedestrians who braved the mud along the walks surrounding the four sides of the plaza, wondered just what had become of that reso- lution by the city to put in pave ments at these business intersec- tions. Others hoped that at least the same old blanks which did such val iant service last year. would be again in evidence. The chief diff culty about the blanks was that at times they came so near being afloat it was risky walking along them without a life preserver.

HE SOON MUST GO

The Kaiser soon will have to leave
His little German throne,
For his own people don't believe
The judgment he has shown.
He told them he could whip the
world
In just 4 little while;
And ordered every newsy hearld
To fall In rank and file.
And every thing went fine and well
Till Belgian soil was reached,
There powder he began to smell,
And all his plans were beached.
Then Kaiser Bill got sore and mad,
And sent his only son
To whip the Belgians for his dad,
For all would then be won.
Then DER in Trance the battle cry
Was sent from house to house,
And every Frenchman pledged to die,
Or capture Billy's blouse.
But Kaiser's son went on and on,
Till Frenchman's fire he met;
And it was like q mighty thorn
To Billy's only pet.
He called on Austria for help,
And they came through his gates;
But England started for his scalp,
And then our United States.
And just the sight of Uncle Sam,
Makes Billy see his fate;
For he can't eat American ham
Nor haul munition freight.
