ask no defense from me; but at
the same time | saw this un-
pardonable Mormon Maid"
had just come from looking at
another picture in real life which
| wish you could have seen. Let
me try to paint it for you.
Some three miles out from the
thriving little city of Mesa, is a
typical Mormon home. 1t was
my privilege to be at that home
for some days. The experience
was entirely new to me, and was
nothing short of a revelation.
1t is a real, Louisa M. Alcott
home. Her Marsh family could
live in it; her Little Women, +"
even her Little Men," couln be
written from it.
The father is just plain de
sirable citizen" a thinker and a
worker; the children are just
sweet girls and manly boys,
growing strong and fine in an at
mosphere of purity and recti-
tude: but the mother! can
think of nothing but those exqui-
site words While it may have
been hard to read the Ten Com
msndments by the light of a pine
knot, it was not difficult to get
the sweet spirit of them from
the countenance of the serene
mother, knitting in the chimney
corner.
Think of it.! The mother of
thirteen, with a baby at her
breast, without a white hair in
her Iuxuriant brown, going about
her duties with a song on her
lips, and dominating her house.

seen her elsewhere.
What think you of this picture,
in contrast with the other?
My protest? Here it is, short
but sincere. 1t is not well for
America to go to war for the up
lift of mankind, and then to per-
nit a blow at one of the cleanest
and finest organizations within
its borders. "One Of" !" do say?

On the last Saturday in June
there Will be held an examination
at HOlbrook in the Office of the
county superintendent for the
comfy scholarship to the state
university at Tucson. The uni
versity requires that the candi-
dates be examined in but five
subjects; algebra, English, one
science and two selective sub
jects. The winner of the exam
ination will be awarded $3.50 to
pay his expenses in the univer-
sity for one year.
1t will come as a surprise to
many of our people to learn that
Postmaster Daze has resigned
his position in order that he can
enlist in the army and start out
after the Germans. The depart
ment has notified him that the
resignation has been accepted,
and he will be relieved from du-
ty as soon as possible. Several
months ago Daze made applica-
tion for a leave of absence to en-
ter the service, but this request
was not granted by the depart
ment, and the resignation follow
ed. Mr.. Daze is satisfied there
is more excitement chasing the
Huns than in reading the postal
cards for Uncle Sam and invoic-
ing postage stamps. and being
young and strong he wants the
excitement. The old saw is no
longer true that democratic
officeholders sometimes die but
never resign" especially in view
of the fact that Winslow and
Flagstaff postmasters have both
resigned within the past week.

Some Things Other Editors Say and
the Way They Say 1t

(Brilliants from the pen of Col,
Breen, in Coconino Sun, June Ia.
1889
Editor Chapman of the Wins
low Mail suggests that since the
law allowing soldiers to vote in
any army camps has passed, that
it would be good thing to send
the drunken bunch who conduct
ed the election in Douglas pre-
cinct No. l, as commissioners in
order that they may keep the
state safe for democracy. 1t
might be less expensive for the
governor to appoint them to re-
ceive the ballots here where they
could fix the ballots to suit the
exigencies of the occasion, with
a better knowledge of just what
was required.
Brother Mills of the Phoenix
Messenger tries very hard to ex-
cuse Governor Hunt for taking
the salary that Governor Camp
bell earned. Hunt was drawing
a salary from the federal govern
ment a part of the same time, as
mediator supposedly at about
the same time he had his picture
taken with the two wobblies who
are now under indictment in Chi
cago. Hunts idea of liberality
was to take both salaries and
then ask the taxpayers of the
state to pay Campbell an extra
salary. 1t does not cost much to
be liberal, even generous with
other peoples money.
If there was ever a time in the
history of the state when capital
punishment should be in full
force and effect, it is now. 1t is
an exploded theory and the fair
name of the state demands a law
that will permit of the hanging
of the deliberate murderers and
rid the country of that element
which seems to have drifted in
because they take few chances
in Arizona for merely numbering
a person. The people who thot
it was such a humane law"
have come to the conclusion that
murderers are not human, at
least as far as their morals are
concerned, and there is only one
sure course of treatment for
them. There is little fuss and
weeping over the one deliberate
ly murdered, but my, what great
sympathy is poured over the
murderer, who, more often than
not, merely shot the person in
the back for a few dollars he
was too lazy to earn honestly.
For every murderer hung. ten
guilty ones escape.

Autos Must Carry
The New Licenses
Owners of Cars Must Have 1918
Plates or Be Subjected to the
Penalty of Law.

Automobiles in South Carolina
running their cars now without their
1918 license plates are doing so at
their own risk. The time for getting
the new licenses expired on February
l. Because of the congestion in the
work Of the State highway depart
ment in getting the new plates out to
the applicants the attorney general
held that those who had applied for
licenses prior to February 1 but who
had not received the plates up to that
date could drive their cars, without
penalty, until their licenses had been
issued. However, the work of issu-
ing the licenses is practically up to
date and those driving their cars
with the 1917 licenses are doing so
in violation of the law.
The total number of applications
for licenses filed to date are over
10000. The total receipts are more
than $250,000 The police have been
instructed to look out for all cars
not wearing" the new license plates.
The highway commission will meet
March 6, at which time bids for IL
cense plates for 1919 will be award
ed. An increase in the number of
licenses has been anticipated and bids
on $4,000 plates have been asked for

has called Milo H. Evans, chief of

Planting Flowers
And Vegetables
NeighbOrhOOds are Made Beautiful by
Constructive Flower Planting and
Back Yards Are Made to
Supply the Tables

The store of how city is helping
its citizens to raise flowers and vege-
tables will be shown in picture and
film next Saturday morning at 1890
o'clock in Edisonia Theatre.
The Chamber of Commerce has ar
ranged with The National Cash Reg
lister Company of Dayton, Ohio, to
show some of its steropticon pictures
and motion picture film, illustrating
the work that has been done in Day
ton around the plant of that Com
pany, and in other sections of the
city.
There is constructive lesson in
these interesting pictures. They show
that organized effort will produce
in community. The result in Day
ton is no exception. Othdr cities
have followed suit with equal sue
cess.
Many years ago, The National
Cash Register Company adopted the
neighborhood improvement idea to
overcome certain unsatisfactory con-
ditions that prevailed in the section
of the city in which the factory is
located. The neighborhood was then
known as Slidertown, and the condi-
tions were not better than the name
would imply.
After trying many expedients, the
officials of the Company decided to
train the boys and girls of the com
munity to raise flowers and vege-
tables in order that they might have
something constructive to occupy
their time. The move was success
full, and the story of how it was all
brought about is fscinating one. 1t
will be told by the expert lecturer
who accompanies the film and pic
lures.
Every section of this city will bene-
fit by applying some Of the lessons
to be learned from these pictures,
and it will be time we'll spent to at
tend the lectures.
In addition there will be shown a
three reel feature film entitled, "The
Troubles of Merchant and How to
correct Them" These pictures are
especially applicable to merchants
and clerks and are instructive and en-
tertaining. The pictures have at
tracted a great deal of attention
wherever shown, particularly in some
of the larger cities.
There will be no charge for admis-
sion, and all are cordially invited to
attend.
Boys and girls who intend taking
part in the War Gardens are espe-
cially requested to be present.

Requested Article
BY Macbeth Young

Complying with request made bv
Times man, to Hon. Macbeth Young
the following valuable information
below is given to the public.
Your attention is particularly called
to the last paragraph of Mr.. Young's
article, in which he says: "Mv ad-
vice to all is to project your work
and work day after day and not think
OF going until the summons comes
You will not lose the labor, and we
need the results of your labor moro
than ever"
We commend Mr.. Young for his cx-
ceIlent advice, and trust it will be
needed.
You have put some questions to me
that it is impossible to answer def
nitely and officially. wish that 7
could for I know just at this season
OF the year every one is more or less
In quandary as to what to do or
may be done in projecting a crop this
spring or other enterprises in which
registrants who have been classed in
class one are concerned.
What l am saying is not official:
Tor | have received no definite and
certain orders yet, as to whether Un
Ion County will be called on to fur
nlsh any quota in the next call, or
that there will be any quota at all
called out.
All can say is, that Union County
registrants are in very favored
class and practically alone.
1t has many volunteers to it's credit
and | cannot say what the future NAV
bring forth; but I do know that the
spirit of the volunteer patriot is still
rampant in the county amongst both
our caucasian and negro registrants.
1t is my opinion based upon reason
and logic, that our Class 1 men will
not be called before June next; and
II called then, will not be called in a
body; that is, the whole quota at one
and the same time.
1t is my further opinion that the
next calls will be based, more or less.
upon the occupational fitness of the
reglstrant for certain selected places
in which he may be most familiar and
skilled.
Further, it is my opinion that in
inducing Class 1 men into the service
1T will follow in a systematic wav
throughout the year; probably each
cantonment will be called upon to
furnish certain per cent of it's picked
or most skilled men for mobilization
at or near some port of embarkation.
and the percentage taken out will be
filled with the same number drawn
from the State which fill the canton
ment. with recruits or registrants:
and that will go on from time to
time throughout the year as rapidly
as the finished product (the picked
soldier) may be debarked across the
seas to France
There is no necessity for any hys-
terra in old Union County or any of
them for that matter; the members
taken will be small at time and so
gradual it may hardly be felt, from
an industrial or agricultural stand |
point.
Besides, we still have volunteers TO |
our credit. My advice to all is to
project your work and work day af-
ter day and not think of going until
the summons comes. You will not
lose the labor, and we need the re-
suits of your labor more than ever.
Macbeth Young,
Chairman.
