War Saving Stamps.

A national campaign for pledg-
es to buy war saving stamps will
be conducted from June 10th to
28th. A local committee has the
matter in charge for Winslow,
and a house to house canvass will
be made. War saving stamps are
even a better investment than
Liberty bonds, because they bear
higher rate of interest and are
a short time loan, falling due in
January, 1923. 1t will take an
average purchase of $40 for every
man, woman and echild to meet
the full quota assigned to Navajo
county, but you can purchase
them at your convenience. The
committee will be out asking only
signatures to a pledge agreeing
to purchase a certain amount
during the year.

Spirit of Philanthropy.

When John Gildea, the page of
the house in the state legislature,
carried a message from one of
the assemblymen to the gallery
to Mrs. Percival Lowell, widow
of the late Arizona scientist, he
did not realize that he was also
carrying a message to her heart.
Mrs. Lowell was much impressed
with the young mans gentle
manly manners and inquired Of
him his name, age and standing
in school. He replied that his
name was John Gildea, that he
was IL years old and that he
was in the first year in the high
school. Mrs. Lowell thereupon
asked the lad what he intended
to do when he grew up and was
informed that he had aspirations
to become speaker of the house
in the state legislature. That he
may properly fit himself to be-
come a leader among men, Mrs.
Lowell offered to defray his ex-
penses through a preparatory
school in Boston and upon his
graduation therefrom to pay his
way through the Harvard college.
The young mans widowed
mother, Mrs. ]. C. Gildea, con-
sented and last night mother and
son left for the east.
Although the members of the
house regret that this little fell
low must leave them, yet all vote
without division that opportunity
knocked at this boys door and
he hearkened. Phoenix Repub-
lican.

15Sth Infantry Band.

Word has been received in
Winslow that the 158th Infantry
Band, which is touring the state,
will arrive in the city next
Thursday morning, and be with
us for the day. This band is
better known as the 1st Arizona
band, and is considered the finest
musical organization in Camp
Kearney. The purpose Of tour
ing the state, giving a series of
concerts, is to fire the patriotic
spirit of our people to give Iiber-
ally to the Red Cross and pledge
support to the purchase of war
saving stamps.

Arizona Exempted.

Orders were issued from the
office of Provost Marshal General
Crowder Wednesday calling 200,
900 more men to the colors, and
notice has been served on the
governors of all the states except
Arizona, which has already sent
more than her full quota. When
this call for men is filled the
United States will have over
1900, 600 soldiers under the selec-
tive draft, with a total in the
army of over 100000.
It is hardly probable any more
men will be taken out of this
state before another year, and
not then unless it be found neces-
sary to draft men out of other
classes.

Received Commissions.

Trainmaster Shipley has re-
ceived his commission as a cap
tain, and Trainmaster Woods has
received his commission as a
lieutenant in the 31st Engineers
Corps, and they have been or
dered to report to Camp Lee in
Virginia. While our people will
regret to lose these two gentle
men as residents, it is a distinct
honor to the city to have the
government take two of our Off
cials for duty oversee. The 31st
Engineers Corps is composed en-
tirely of railroad employees, and
it is understood that on their
arrival in France they will take
over the complete management of
one of the railroad properties and
put it on an operative basis the
same as an American road. With
Mr.. Shipley and Mr.. Woods to
direct the work the reformation
will come quickly, which will be
a revelation to our French allies
of American efficiency.

Change in Business.

Joe LaChance, who has been
associated with Everett Walcott
In the Winslow Market, has dis
posed of his interest to his part
ner, and will leave within the
next few days for San Diego,
Calf, where he will reside for a
couple of years at least, until
Mrs. LaChance recovers her
health sufficiently to come back
to Arizona. These two young
men have built up a fine business
during the past year, as they
were energetic hustlers and ap-
piled themselves strictly to their
work.

Arizona Soldiers.

Arizona is the only state in the
union that has furnished her full
quota of soldiers for the army,
and not only has she responded
fully to the demand, but has
furnished more than 500 in ex
cess of her quota. This record
is even better than it appears by
the figures, because under the
estimated population rule under
which appointments were made
the population of Arizona was
arbitrarily raised nearly fifty per
cent. Other states are behind
in their quotas in varying num-
bers up to 10000.
Arizona has not only done
herself proud in furnishing men,
but she has responded beyonc
her equitable requirements in
giving money to the Red Cross,
and buying bonds in all three
issues. Our people believe in
the war, and manifest their be-
lief with men and money.

Red Cross Nurses.

Word comes from the Pacific
Division of the Red Cross that
$4,000 nurses are needed at once
for the United States army and
navy. They must be assembled
for immediate service this month.
The Hun offensive along the
Marne has caused the govern
ment to issue an emergency call.
There must be adequate nurses
for the sick and wounded on the
other side. Nurses are not
drafted, so it must be a volun-
teer service. The call for volun
teers in this line of work is just
as urgent as a call for fighting
men, and it is the hope of the
government that all experienced
nurses will tender their service
to the government at this time.

he will be compelled to retire from

ready to fill his place.
After careful consideration, the
Board elected Superintendent Luther
Case of the lilo school. Although Mr..
Case is a graduate of an eastern col
lege. yet he is well acquainted with
school conditions in the west because
he has served as superintendent or
principal in the states of Montana,
Washington, and Idaho. He not only
holds a high record of scholarship, but
he has also been very successful as
principal of large high school. We
learn that Mr. Case is regarded by
educators as leader in educational
thought and progress in this section
of the state. The School Board should
be congratulated on their efforts TO
continue the high standards OF our
public schools
