are proud of this youth, rather prouder of him than they are of the which sentenced him isola tion He has accomplished a task amid difficulties and dscouragements which no white graduate from the Phoenix High School has ever had encounter.
 We are not criticisng the segregation law when it can be sensibly applied in grammar schools, where there enough colored pupils form school in which they be given opportunities equal to those which white pupils enjoy. They entitled by the constitution the United States equal opportunities and any segregation law which would deprive them of them would of course be invalid. There is advantage to both white and coored pupils in segregation in proper circumstances.
 For long time after our segregation law put to the high school for the reason that there not enough colored pupils to make up high school. For some time there was but one this boy who has just been graduated. When the segregation law enforced to the high school, a private tutor employed by the school authorities for this youth for the first year. that for that year. he prob ably the most eXpensivey trained youth under a public school system in the United States. Mean- while other colored pupils eight think, entered the high school and they have been given nominaly the same opportunities as those which the white high school pupils enjoy but at a considerable expense to the taxpayers.
 We do not like to advocate the disobedence the disregard of any law good bad but we cannot the inquiry whether in it's application in such circumstances as we have described the segregation law would not be more honored in it's breach than in it's observance.

phoenix,s Greatest Day

This is Wednesday: tomorrow is Thursday and the next day will be the election of mayor
 on that very important day or two con- missoners may be chosen.
 on the face of it alone therefore, day after to- morrow would seem to be a very important, real red letter day.
 But Friday will be a more important day than appears from these surface facts.
 It is on that day that the character of the gov ernment of Phoenix for the next two years will be determined.
 What may be done day after tomorrow will affect Phoenix for the next ten years. That will be a day which good citizen, woman or man. wants to miss It is day, not for Corpstein or Woods or any other candidate, but for Phoenix.
 Be there at the primary. No where else can you take part in the determin- nton of the future of Phoenix.
 We feel sure that if all the people who have reg istered for the election Phoenix will be well taken care of.
 If 5000 voters go to the pols the right thing, we are confident will be done.
 Put aside whatever other work engagements you have for Friday and turn out at the primary.
 Sec that your neighbor goes.

DR. TORREY SPEAKS
 ID BIC AUDIENCE

Dr. R. A. Torrey spoke to full house at the First Baptist church last night. It was an attentive audience which filled the large auditorium almost to overflowing. Dr. Torrey took for his subject, What It Costs not to Live and Die a Christian It costs alto- gether too much, he said.
 It costs the sacrifice of peace One may have fun or may have amusement. but no one but the true Christian can have peace.
 It costs the sacrifice of joy The Christian has joy unspeakable, and mo- body else does have joy.
 It costs the sacrifice of hope. Hope for the future is more important than present possession.
 It costs the sacrifice of the highest manhood, and the highest womanhood None but the Christian can measure up to the highest standard of manhood or womanhood.
 It costs the sacrifice of Gods favor. Without God we are nothing. With God we can do all things and be all things.
 It costs the sacrifice of Jesus Christ as an advocate.
 It costs the sacrifice of eternal life and this means to perish forever.
 Dr. Torrey will speak Wednesday at 2: 30 o'clock on the subject: Who Can Pray So as to Get What You Ask" He will also speak on the subject of pre- vailing prayer and popular amuse- ments.
 The subject of the sermon on Wed nesday evening will be "Why Tar riest Thou?"

A New War-Winning Recipe

We take from exchange the following specific for winning wars. certain remedy against defeat, warranted to work, Help Win War by Saving Base balls"
 Baseball rooters will be asked to forego one of their sports next season. and that is appropriating the foul balls that knocked into the crowd Any who fails to such ball. so it be used again, will be considered a German sympathzer The reason is not that baseballs going to cost sderably more this year and be harder to get, but because they contain ingredients that needed in the conduct of the and consequently must be conserved The fan who pockets baseball for souvenir for the kids at home is going to increase by that much the consumption of rubber, yarn and horse hide without any compensatory returns
 The foregoing written probably by the sporting editor reminds the essay of the little boy the subject of Pins" the opening sentence of which Pins have saved millions of lives"
 How Johnnie?" inquired the astonished teacher; "How have pins saved human lives?"
 By swallowing them" Johnnie replied
 While we may concede that this recipe for win ming the war is as sensible and effective many thousands of others which have been frantically of fered by people who know much about as they do of the hereafter, that is saying very much for it.
 We will admit though that if the souvenir hunt would return the lost balls there would be a ing of balls and saving of yarn rubber, horsehde all of which in way materials. But that saving would be small and lnconsequential in comparison with the saving of yarn, rubber and horsehde of the factories which engaged in manufacturing basebars would close that industry and leave all this material free to be used for war purposes. If the purloiner of errant baseball is unconscious German sympathzer the manufacturer of baseballs is active Prussian agent.
 And what shall we say of the hundreds of athletic young men of the major, minor and bush leagues who are fooing away their time and energy base ball diamonds when the country much needs their services in work-in the shop the farm or in the trenches? And what shall say of the mil lions of American citizens who in the of baseball pour out millions of dollars which their country so much needs to carry on the war? How criminal this than useless expenditure when it encourages and procures the waste of yarn rubber and horsehide well the time and energy of the hundreds of baseball players.

in my office, following the closing of the registration to have completed the compiling of the great register and the precinct polling lists within a sui ficient tme to enable the printer to have completed his end of the work, all within five days.
 '.The registration just closed was the heaviest of any ever recorded in Phoe- nix before a primary election. On the final day of registration there were no less than 1000 names added to the rolls. There may have been as many as 1,200. No move could be made in the matter of segregating these names and beginning the arrangement of the great register or of the precinct poll ing lists until the last registration entry had been made
 From the moment that the last reg istration entry was made at 10 o'clock Monday evening, February IS, there has been as large force at work upon these books as could be worked with out interfering with each other From eight o'clock in the morning until mid night ever since then this force has been at work, taking only few min- utes off for lunch and dinner.
 Tt was not simply the matter of | copying 5,230 names, but there was much data that must follow the name  of each registrant. Then there was the alphabetical arrangement, and then | enlargement down to the third letter of each name. This done all these names must again be segregated by precincts and again copied into pre- cinct books, of which there are six II was a mountainous task and one that could not have been accomplished with in three days by any means known to me. It would had to have been con- pleted in that time if the printer by working night and day was to finish the work in two days.
 T will not say just what I believe was the reason for this joint demand I will say, however, that throughout I the registration period, and since then every assistance has been given to MT Callahan in the preparation of a list of every person registered, which list so far as l know. is quite complete, ana contains all the information to be found in the great register, except perhap: the number given each registrant.
