They were a splendid bunch of men, though it did not need much of an experienced eye to pick out the "old timers" and those who had only few months of train- ing. However, it proved that in the little old U. s. A. it does not take long to make a bad scrapper out of men who have been following peace ful pursuits.

NORTH BEAVER ITEMS.

Willard Hastings, the oldest son ot Mrs. Bell Tasting of this city, died Friday morning at 10 o'clock at the hospital, of Spanish influenza. He was a young man about 35 years of age with large circle of friends. He came to Arizona about six months ago on a visit to his mother, and dur ing his short stay had made many friends. He was liked by every one who knew him. He is survived by a wife and three small children, his mother, and four brothers, Floyd Hastings of Fort Valley; twin brother, Willard Hastings of Wiscon- sin; Frank and Lloyd Hastings, who are now in France. The many friends of this community extend the greatest sympathy to the bereaved family, and especially to widow and little fatherless children, who need so much the care of kind father and loving husband. Diseased is also nephew of Ed Poston of this city.

Having been a close student of law for the past eight hundred years, and fully realizing that those who know THE LAW THE BEST, and who have the BEST JURORS on the panel are the best, we feel that the goat should have a chance to re-butt, consequent ly we hand you these unpaid for questionnaires:
 Q.-Gov. Hunt, are you human? A.-Sure; ask Louie Lowenthal or Fred Colter.
 Q.-Do you believe in the existence of supreme being?
 A.-"Dear Mike" and I have agreed on that; maybe you overlooked my letter to him when l was all "het up.'
 Q.-Do you believe that the l. w. w. organization is disloyal?
 Gov. Hunt, president of the state council of defense; the main packer of President Wilson, who paid for Up ton Sinclair's socialistic magazine and sent it to all the educational in- stitutions of the state-at STATE EXPENSE-the savior of the people; the man who paid the bond of $500 because the pro-German alien enemy who registered at Hunts own home, Chas. Kastner, made his escape, and the man who stood up with his arms around McKinnon and Perry-two of the men now in the federal peniten- tiary at, Ft. Leavenworth on long sentence, having been convicted by the Government of the United States for their acts against the people of the country):
 A.-(Gov. Hunt): I don't know.
 Q-.Who owns the Mortimer Arizona Pleader?
 Al don't know who paid up last.
 Q.-Who have you decided upon for the next governor of the state? . Aired Colter. Sid Osborn said that Mooney, the poor fellow over in San Francisco who was convicted of merely allowing lot of people to be blowed up when he innocently threw bomb into the preparedness pa- rade" crowd a year or so ago, ought to hang. My chiffonier heard him say it!
 Q.-Who are the copper-collored, reptile press, the kept press and your especial distress?
 A.-Why them is the people what won't stand by me. Why, some of that outfit are so close that they are sore because I took Tom Campbell's salary for the year he was governor --can you beat it? The U. s. Gov. only give me $10 per day while Tom was doing the work, but some folks don't know how hard it is to make a living.

An appeal to the people of Arizona to continue to put forth their utmost efforts to conserve food, despite re- peated rumors of peace which may come from the hard-pressed Huns, is contained in the following statement issued today by Timothy A. Riordan federal food administrator for Ari. zona:
 with the approach of winter il was inevitable that peace and rumors of peace would be talked of. That is what the nation is talking and think ing today, and it is natural, perhaps that the impulse comes to let up a little in all our hard-working war program, to be little less strict ir our observance of food conservation
 "Not until the was is actually over with and the peace compact signed can we afford to let our efforts relax, even temporarily. The war is going forward. 1t does not stop or falter, it does not temporize or hesitate. It is our duty as loyal Arizonans to sus- tain our army by the contributions we make to the food program. We must conserve today and every day. We must be careful; we must be strict.
 "We have pledged to deliver to the Allies in Europe seventeen million tons of foodstuffs, a tremendous amount, fifty per cent greater than our total contribution this year. To achieve this calls for constant, vigi- lant, unceasing conservation.
 "There must be no up and down in our efforts. To succeed, steady pressure is necessary. We known the food needs of our part of the world, the part that is fighting Germany. It is our plain duty to meet them. Meet ing them, without wavering, without response to every passing mood fos- tered by the German government, will mean peace in OUR time, and it will also mean Victory.
