The local high school basketballers will go up against the hardest team in the valley to defeat, tonight, when they enter the arena to contest With the Indian school team. So far this season the Indians have won every game played with a high school team They beat the Coyotes once, but that is past, and the Coyotes are de- termined to hold their scalp this time, or bust The Coyotes will not be satisfied in merely hanging on to their own scalps. they are grimly determined to grab the scalp lost in their last game with the Indians and to snatch the Indians scalp in the bargain. At all odds the redskins will have to fight their hardest to keep from going down to defeat, and losing their chances for winning the valley champion ship.
 If the Coyotes win the game, they will undoubtedly be the best play CTS in the valley, for no valley team has as yet been able to win from the stury Indians.
 If the Indians win-well, the cham pionship is theirs, and the plaefaces will be unable to Haunt the winners pennant in the face of the breeze.

ErroneousIY Billed

The other day there was posted in a list of called sackers and deserters the of a young who had complied with the seectve draft law in every particular He called and examined months ago and accepted He was sent to Camp Funston and afterward transferred to Camp Kearny where recently after physical examination he rejected unfit for military service and to find, few days later, that he had been publicly and officially advertised as a deserter.
 In scores of cases it is a matter of public knowI- edgs that men stigmatized have been in France from which country they have written letters home extracts from which have been printed in the news papers, apprising all who can read that they have already entered the service of the country It would seem in such that even the exemption boards would have learned of their status
 Perhaps they have learned in their capacities of private citizens but not members the board Un- less they personally know the who appears on the record stacker they do identify that name with the of the of whom they had read in newspaper soldier in France or in one of the mobilization camps. The members of the board can go only by the records of the board and not by eXtraneous information which comes to them by ac- cident.
 So, in some cases, the man whose name appears as a stacker, is at fault It would be a very easy matter for him to assist the board in perfecting it's record to himself that he would be in the clear and if he fails to do so contributes to the ,Inen sable undeserved notoriety which attaches to him.
 So far the records of the local board disclose there are many slackers in this county. The board knows that the great majority of them are not really sackers. It may be that the questionnaires sent to them did not reach them: that when they were sent on their return they did not reach the board Many things might have happened. There have been some innocent misunderstanding.
 But in the operation of the selective draft law every evasion must be regarded as intentional and treated as such, otherwise it would be difficult to enforce the law against those who would Intentionally evade it.

The Pussy-Foot

One of the many follies of the censorship of war is illustrated by Golfers Weekly in character istc dispatch from the front stating that three pr yates and a corporal of blank regiment have been killed The names not given but assurance is given that they will be furnished later Thus are thousands of people in the United States who know that they have boys, husbands brothers in France, thrown into unnecessary and cruel anxiety all they know, it may be that boys husbands and brothers are in Blank regiment Each of the four killed may be the dear of each of these thousands. Days and weeks may intervene before the anxiety of the thousands is relieved.
 The for such a senseless dispatch is mill tary necessity though what possible necessity could served by withholding the names of the dead can- not be imagined.
 Much of the other pussy-foot stuff which comes sages only to befudde and disgust not news at all to the Germans They probably possess sion all the facts that concerned them before the correspondents who permitted to cable to this country observation of them, had heard of them at all
 Americans not unnaturalIy suspect that an or ganization which displays little judgment in this respect is not capable of exercising judgment in the conduct of greater and more vital matters.

Because the production of beef is one of the most vital matters in this country, especially as this nation is engaged in the great war, the annual meeting of the Arizona Cattle Crow CTS association this year which is to De held at Nogales on February 14, b, and 16, will be the most important of any convention in its history.
 There are at present 1,045 members in the association, and it is expected that more than one hundred will go to Nogales on those dates from Phoe- nix and Maricopa county, according to the estimate of Sam Bradner, secretary Of the association. MT. Bradner also Is secretary of the state live stock sanitary board

 We confidently expect this years convention of the Arizona Cattlemen's | association to be bigger and better than ever before," said Secretary Brad 1 Ter yesterday This is partly on ac- 1 count of the interest attached to the industry. owing to the importance of the production of beef with relation to l the war
 That the cattlemen of the state will long remember the meeting this year, the cattlemen of Santa Cruz county are combining with the chamber of commerce of Nogales in preparing an l on 1ta,-f ajro11 m Is n featur>s. They also are going to see that the visitors have the best of ac- commodations during their stay in Nogales.

An Expected Offensive

There indications of early and powerful German offensive the western front strong feeers have recently been thrown out along the line from Nieuport south to San Quentin. Where the blow may fall is uncertain but wherever it may be, it may be believed the allies not likely to be taken by surprise There are two reasons why the Germans should strike on the western front The most potent one is probably the German desire to exercise its greatest strength there before the needed American endorsements which supposed to be arriving steadily can be increased to the point of becoming d deciding factor If by any chance the allies could be crushed seriously crippled the effect of America in the would be neutralized to a great extent
 The other reason why the western front is likely be chosen is because of the unexpected return of fighting weather" there. Winter has increased the difficulties of a Teutonc offensive in Italy. On count of the disturbance communications the Aus trians and the comparatively few Germans there hardly holding their own against the Italians inforced by the British and French.
 What strength the Germans may be able to throw into an offensive is a matter of conjecture In the cloudy conditions which have enveloped the central empires and affairs on the Russian frontier for weeks. there is no means of knowing what German troops have been withdrawn from the eastern front and what may be their way to the west. The observations of the allied aerial service have given information of a greatly increased force at the line and back of it. but these observations do not the long lines of railways convergng at points on the front In the of a prolonged engagement these roads, it might be expected, would bring in long trains of now unseen re-nforcements
 In the view of Englishmen, the reports of trouble in Austria which threaten a revolution and clash with Germany, have bearing on German designs in the The English regard these reports greatly exaggerated by Germany if they are not actual fabrications further to cloud the situation, under this cloud it is suspected preparations in progress.
 Washington, however, takes these reports at their value and claims be in possession of informa tion which it is strange is withheld from the British that the Austro Hungarian troubles real.

RESPONSIBILITY STRENGTHENS THE WILL

Have you made your New Year resolutions yet? Whether you have or not the article by Dr. James Walsh in the January American Magazine will help you to form and keep them. He says:
 Responsibility strengthens the will. Many a weak man when put into position of responsibility has made good and astonished his associates by the exhibition of qualities that they imagined he possessed and that probably would have lain dormant had not responsibility brought them the surface There is no great mystery about this. position of responsibility forces to make quick decisions and this training naturally strengthens the will.
 There is still another reason why responsibility develops mans will. If individual is holding down position of trust he is naturally looked up to by his subordinates. This puts him his mette and he all his in the determination to prove worthy of that trust Responsibility has also been known to of the drink habit for the same reason.'

Cylinders cracked and other unforeseen things happened.
 Automobilists have their troubles everywhere if it isn't thing it's another. There is said to be nothing that gives pleasure to "the masses" than an automobile. and judging by the rush of the masses to become automobilsts, it must be true. On the other hand there is nothing except baby, that requires more nursing and pampering and consid eration in ones waking hours than the which he his family has learned to depend upon for necessary and unnecessary transportation It is indeed doubt ful if the automobile has added the of human happiness, although undoubtedly it has added vastly to the worlds facilities for rapid and economical transportation. When nobody owned automobile nobody wanted But when few became owners, others desired to be- and sold increased the demand for other That process continues, des bite and drouth and and sleet.
 Almost suddenly the civilized world transformed it's local transportation system from horse drawn to motordrawn vehicles, and naturally the change has unsettled many conditions that had remained settled for thousand years. For thing, the coming, and staying, of the automobile compels readjustment of family incomes Everybody must have money in order to maintain automobile and to have more money more must be earned or Wheedled. Whether earned or wheeded it must come from out of the countrys business, and it can't from that unless that can withstand it. There fore automatic inflation Imitation, however is in flation only long it stays inflated and business is adjusting itself inflaon therefore high prices, as compared with former prices, will be- come stabilized the higher basis
 Less than half dozen years ago. the president of the Texas State Bankers association warned the country against the automobile. He pictured amount of money that the industry threatened to consume rather to collect together fewer hands It would mean bankruptcy, he said. If he could have looked forward to the number of automobiles that would be in within the next five years he would have been paralyzed with apprehension No then could have foreseen that there would be one-fourth many have since been manufactured and sold. Yet the country easily adjusted itself to them and absorbed them without harm
