ARMISTICE LOSES HIM
 HIS COMMISSION

Jerome Rozen, candidate for a com mission in an army officers training school in France, tells real hard luck story. of losing his commission, but is glad the war is over.
 He writes his folks:
 "In France, Nov. F, 1918. Dear Folks: .
 q got several letters yesterday and they made me feel much better. I'll tell you why. As you know I was picked as one of the men out of my regiment to go to this school. l worked hard and passed all the exam nations and found at the end that l was second to the best man; it was close with the first man, who had years back of him. My lieutenant thinks we'll of my work and have had charge of a platoon at the officers training school. I felt sure of my commission. Last night a wire came would be given out and you may im- agine how I felt. They promised to give us some sort of papers showing all and that maybe they would com mission us at the outfits we are to go to. Of course am just that much better as a sergeant, but everything seems doubtful. I am glad the ar mistice was signed even if it did cost me my commission, however, l am hoping for the best and believe that we will be moving from here soon. got those beautiful birthday cards. They came when 1 was feel ;p1 nrat+y had and they certainly made me feel better. The boys are composing a new song "All Sam Brown Belts Will Be Worn in the Pack" Orders are changed again and I don't know what's what. Num- my, don't believe that it will take years to settle things.

GIVE TWICE AT ONE
 PRICE---W s. s.

"Give twice at one price" This suggestion is made by Secretary of the Treasury to the people of Arizona when he urges that War Savings Stamps (Baby Bonds) and Thrift Stamps, little brothers of sthe Baby Bonds, be given as Christmas pres ents. By making Baby Bonds and Thrift Stamps Christmas presents a double gift is made, the direct gift to the individual and the investment ask ed for by the government. Thus the most useful kind of present is given and the government is given the help it needs to support the army of oc- cupation in Germany and to bring that army home again when the task is done.
 Artistic little folders have been pro- duced to hold one or more Baby Bonds and even to hold Thrift Stamps These little folders have upon them suitable Christmas wishes, neatly printed, and it is an easy question to answer: "Who would not be delighted by the gift of Baby Bond on Christ mas morning?"

WOULD INVOKE LAW TO GET
 RACK MONEY PAID FOR BOOZE

Legal retribution IS sought by the "hip- pocket" bootleggers of Marlcopa county against the "higher-ups" for losses sustained few days ago in the theft of 30 cases, more or less, of whiskey. At least the "small" fel- lows have gone so far as to consult legal authorities in Phoenix relative to the feasibility of regaining funds expended for the stolen whiskey.
 At least two different Phoenix at torneys are known to have been con- suited regarding this matter. It IS un- derstood that both advised the little fellows to keep mum and await their opportunity.
 Incidentally, further disclosures re- garding the traffic have recently been brought to light. Within the law semms to be the motto of the higher ups and though many of them are known to officers--or at least sus- pected-there is little possibility Of immediate arrests.
 The inside workings of this organ ization are as complete and shielded as has ever been perfected in this community. The "higher-ups", the men directly responsible for the traf- fife. are seemingly operating within the law. At least, the law seems to know no way of criminal procedure.
 The business is transacted in a manner that offers the "big mem ab- solute protection. The hip-pocket' bootIegger, the man who actually peddles the whiskey, pays certain price for whiskey. He pays this
 .o of tho nrOanlZA- tion.
 The agent deducts his "slice" of the amount, turning the actual cost of the whiskey one way and the remainder the other. The cost of the whiskey which averages about 75 cents pint plus transportation cost from Needles to Phoenix, goes to the man who is tt transport the same into Phoenix.
 The other part of the original pay ment goes through the various agents each deducting his royalty" unti the sum is finally divided-unequalll among all parties interested. Int 'hip-pocket" bootlegger pays abou $3.50 for pint of whiskey in Phoe nix.
 Neither the higher-ups nor the lieu tenants handle any part of the none! which is to go for the actual purchase of the whiskey or it's transportatio, into Phoenix. It is the smaller fel lows who run the chances as part O the organization, with the higher-upl receiving their royalties" on eacl pint of whiskey sold.
 After the whiskey is received il Phoenix, it is taken to the hidini place. The higher-ups neither pur chase nor transport the liquor int Phoenix nor do they sell it. It is pur chased by the distributors themselves to whom it is handed out after receip in this city.
 That is just what happened with thu last consignment but before the ped dlers had opportunity to secure tn whiskey for which they had paid, thu liquor was stolen. Now the Chip pocket" bootleggers are endeavorin, to get their money back. They seen doomed to disappointment.-Phoeni

CAPT. GUTHRIE TELLS OF
 FORESTRY IN FRANCE

Captain John D. Guthrie has most interesting article in the American Forestry magazine for the month of November. The article treats of the work of the forestry regiment of en- gineers in France getting out war material. The article was plentifully illustrated with pictures of the work, but none of them showed the captain of the company at work, but presume that was because the article had to be censored-by Captain Guthrie. Another thing about the article we did not like was that he did not name a number of old Arizona lumberjacks whom we know are over there some where. Some felt that they were not doing all they should because they could not get on the firing line, but a certain number had to furnish the steam or the big engine of war would not have run very far.

 STOCK MARKET REPORT

KANSAS CITY STOCK, YARDS, Dec. 16.-Cattle receipts today were 22,000 head, market strong and &C., tive, some fancy Christmas year lings $25.25. Hog supply was 19,- 900, market to 15 higher, closing weak, top $17.55. Sheep and lamb supply 4,000, market 10 to 15 higher, top lambs $15.15.

Some prime finished Short horn yearlings brought $19.50 last week. The market has been strong each day since the middle of last week and with large packer requirements and falling receipts, prospects look favorable for feeders. Well finished weighty steers sell at S16 to $1S.50, but most of the short fed steers sell at SIS to S15.50 and weigh 940 to 1O60 lbs. No steers of any merit sell to killers under SIP. Cow prices are 10 to 25 cents higher today including canners, choice heavy cows S10 to SIP with exceptions up to $14. Medium cows including range cows bring S7.25 to 5000, canners $5.60 to $6.25, veals $11 to $13.50.
 StOckers and Feeders Stronger.
 There is such a large demand for cattle to pasture Kansas and Okla homa wheat fields, that stockers and feeders sell strong continually and are 25 cents higher than week ago, feeders at $11 to $15, stockers S7 to S13.00. Hogs 10 to 15 Higher.
 Packers are shipping hogs from northern markets where they are plentiful went to Fort Worth where they are scarce, in order to use every facility they have for manufacturing pork product About 12,0OO hogs passed through here last week from St. Paul and Soo City enroute to Fort Worth. Receipts here are quickly taken and prices are being we'll main tained. best medium weight hogs to- day at S17.55, heavies s17.50, lights S17.35. bulk of sales $17 to S17.4O. The average price is still 10 to 15 cents above the authorized minimum of S171O for Kansas City. Stock pigs are uneven but most sales of de- sirable pigs on the open market are at $13.50 to S14.25.
 Sheep and Lambs Advance.
 The lambs at s15.15 today were not choice, which kind would bring 10 or 20 cents more. Fat ewes reached s. 40 last week and good ones are quot able that high now. Feeding lamb: sold last week at SIS to S13.75, but there are few available. Fat lambs usually acquire popularity during tho holiday season and higher prices ar' expected. ,r
