Our readers will note that
Mart Zona says some things
with the bark on. Of course
it is up to the editor of the
Herald to see that communi-
cations do not libel anybody,
and as long as properly sign
ed contributions do not libel
anybody it is perfectly in
keeping with good journal
istic ethics to give space to
communications. The thing
is, readers must not get the
idea that an editor is respon-
sible for the thought or ex-
preston of contributors. The
editors editorials is where
he talks.

Arizona, Its Up to You.
Snowflake, Arizona,
Jan. 16, 1918.

On Arizona there's stain
that's hanging DER thy once fair
name clouding thy skies of blue.
Try as you may you can't erase
the blackness of your late dis
grace. The worlds agap at you.
Your pettifogging lawers all are
dining at the fat ming stall while
you must pay the bill. Your
judiciary change their views, as
often as the daily news, and still
their places fill. Your governors
go up and down like old time
teeters of the town on which sat
Bill and Joe. While you sit
round a looking wise your law
yers book a lot of lies to juggle
to and fro. Those lawyers are a
shrewdish bunch, and SO | give
to you this hunch, they care not
who's the guy to boss the COVER
mental crew. Just so there's
work for them to do they will
not bat an eye. Arizona its up
to you to put these bossing gang
sters thru and do it your own
way. But l suggest in humble
terms, experiment on them with
germs before next voting day.

Vote For S. & 7.

Now people of the S. & 7. it's
strickly up to you an me to vote
next Monday noon, whether we'll
give our rights away or stick to
them and make them pay, and
pay us mighty soon. We need
electric lights you bet and electric
lights we're going to get, but
here's the joker card. Some peo-
pie say that we'er asleep most of
the time and get cold feet with
out helping pard. But we just
think and think 1t hard that we
can do with out a pard, a pard
that we must pay. So when you
vote, vote with your might that
WE may build electric light with
'lectric lights to stay. Now we
have toiled for many years mid
ups and downs and hopes and
fears to 'stablish we'll our rights.
Why jeopardize them at this
hour for help to build electric
pow'r. when for our combined
nights the task is but a little one
compared with those that we
have done together you and me.
So vote to do the job alone and
pick YOUR meat from off YOUR
bone and shoe the birds away.
We all respect our would be pards
and hop our plans won't jar them
hard. Divorce them is our cry!
We can't afford to go cahoots
with anyone you bet your boots,
SO bid our pards goodby.

The right of way thru
Snowflake for the new rail
road has met with some very
obstinate hinderance. In
this connection, we will first
state that at the beginning
of this right of way program
The Herald was told that
the least said in print about
it the better it would be.
We believe that. But we
are going to say something
again: That those who
want more than their prop
erty is worth should be given
the opportunity to fight it
out with the railroad rail
roads have a way of getting
property for about what it is
worth.

Wants the Local News

Camp Funston, Jan. 7, 1918.
Editor of the Snowflake Herald:
During the Xmas and New
Year days we boys Of the army
have received many good boxes
and letters from the different
organizations of Snowflake, and
we appreciate these very much.
But should like to suggest that
some organization or combination
of organizations subscribe for
enough copies of the Snowflake
Herald to supply all Of the soldier
boys from Snowflake and vicinity.
Even if there was only one copy
sent to one of the boys in each
company which has any of our
boys in it they could get along
fairly we'll.
This would not be a very big
expense for any organization,
but it would be greatly appreci-
ated by the boys. tried to pass
my copy around but we have be-
come so badly scattered that /
cannot even reach the boys who
are in Funston. | am sure that
every one would help with the
matter if they knew how the
boys enjoy to get the Herald.
Would you please suggest this
to some one who might start it
going.
| might state, also, that the
boys want to hear more local
news than has been in the Her
aid lately. Whether the lack of
news is the fault of the Herald or
the fault Of the people we do not
know, but we do know that we
want to hear the news. We
should Judge however that we
would have plenty of news if Iae
people would comply with the re-
quest which is in the paper every
week.
Respectfully yours,

Every boy who serves his
country either in the navy or
army should take out an
army insurance policy. The
government has arranged
such so that no man return
ing from the service need be
a dependent, but be inde-
pendent. And, every boy
should take out the $40, 900
policy. That sum is not one
cent too much for a life given
for the sake of war.

Dress in London,

Something might be said Of the
changes that three years of war have
brought about in our clothes, says the
Manchester Guardian. Evening dress
Is not abolished, but it IS becoming
much less customary in theaters and
restaurants, and people coming up to
London who used to bring evening
clothes with them no longer do so.
Stiff white collars are disappearing,
and the soft collar is worn by all
classes. The democratic process had
already set In at the house of COM
mons. One remembers the shock that
Mr.. Keir Hardie'S cloth cap created
on its first appearance there, but it
has advanced immensely since the war
began. Frock coats are in small and
diehard minority. Spats are on their
last legs. Top hats survive mirac-
ulously, 1t might seem. until one re-
members their enduring qualities. so
that their persistence is only a form
# var economy after oil.

"Such a proposition, couched as 1t

that our courts use Defeated litignnt

Makes Ecos Tell Their Age.

A novel and rapid way whereby TO
determine the age Of an egg has been
developed by NJ. Grossfeld, French
Investigator. He has supplemented
the usual method by one dependent on
specific gravity, notes the Boston
Transcript. The existing way where
by to determine the age of eggs is by
Gambling them and taking note of the
mirage which forms about the yolk."
Mr.. Grossfeld has determined that sPe-
cific gravity of normal eggs in the
way attributed to ArchimedeS, and
there has been figured out the loss In
gravity for each week of keeping. For
quick Inspection of qualities Of eggs,
he has devised a form of hydrometer.
The egg takes the place of the weight
ed bulb and the scale indicates the
specific gravity and at the same time
the age of the egg. A little cage has
been arranged to hold the egg and is
capable of quick handling. Big eggs
and little eggs are subject to errors in
the readings, but with eggs in the vi
cinity of 55 grammes the indication is
instantaneous.
