WAR STAMP SALES IN ARIZONA FALL BELOW ALLOTMENT
Report of Treasury Depart ment for February and for Duration of C. ampaig g n Show All States Tagging.

That Arizona is not altogether lag ging in the sale of thrift stamps and baby liberty bonds is disclosed in the repor: of the treasury department is sued March I9, and received in the Warren District yesterday! In total sales for February the state ranks well at the foremost position. while in per capita sales Arizona is halfway down the column. One Arizona man is given honorable mention for sales on rural mail routes.
 Total sales of stamps and bonds for February, according to the report, for the nation, were $46,7S1 .17S.34, or ah average of A cents per capita. ArizO na ranked eleventh in this list, with sales totaling S16S S,534.90. or 6 cents per capita, 19 cents above the per capi- ta average for the nation. Nebraska led all states of the union for February with total sales of S2.699. .55S.77, or a per capita sale of S2.OS. Maryland was second and New Mexico third in this list. Mississippi, Alabama and South Carolina brought up the end of the lists for February.
 Total sales from the beginning of the campaign to February 2S, show S94 ,137, ,021.35, or S9 cents per capita for the nation. Arizona ranked twen- tieth of forty-nine included., with total sales of $261, ,327.02, or 99 cents per capita Nebraska led with $5.6S9, I'll e3. or $4.39 per capita with Missouri and Kansas in second and third places. New Mexico dropped to fifth place in -,Ta -sr, h1r
 The report shows some striking facts. Not a single state in the union has subscribed to the quota of stamps allotted to it for the first quarter of the year if the S20 per capita for the m tion for the year be adopted as a stan dard. Nebraska has come close with S4.39. but no other state has come with in half of the S5 which should have been subscribed. In Arizona only one fifth of the quota which the state should have raised had been subscrib- ed, and more than One-half of that was secured during February. It Is proba- ble that Nebraska will have passed the 8 mark when the March figures are reported, but 1t is not probable that any other state will have maintained it's average. Arizona will have consid- erabIy surpassed the 99 cent per capita mark on April 1, but will still be far behind what the government is asking
 H. B. Griffith of Tempe was placed on the honor roll of rural mail carriers for Arizona with the sale of $13.6S worth of stamps. According to the post office department records rural carrier W. Fl. Wilson, of Lynnville, Tenn. leads the roll of honor with sales totaling $4,544. I. O. Roberts of CarrolltOn, Mo. is second with S2,903 .62 sales and E. D. Williams. of Nor gantown, Ind, is third with $2,661.52 sales.

MORMONLSM AND THE WAR


 BENSON, Ariz., March 30.- K. p. Hall was filled to capacity last Sunday night when Dr. James E. Talmage Oi Salt Lake City delivered lecture deal ing with the Mormon view of the great war. A choir comprising members from all the nearby branches of the Mormon church furnished excellent music and the entire congregation join ed in a spirited rendition of America" Bishop Wm Goodman of St. David con ducted the opening and closing exer- cises; Elder M Powell Cosby offered the invocation and Elder Levi Nelson of the St. David bishopric pronounced the benediction.
 Dr. Talmage is one of the presiding officials of the Mormon church and is widely known in educational and scien- tific circles both in this country and abroad He was formerly president of the University of Utah, and is a mem Der of several learned societies both national and foreign.
 Mormon zeal and patriotism in ihe i great struggle aganst TeutoEic autOc- raey is very generally known and ;his the lecturer said $ the natural result of Mormon profession and practice re- ! specting the duties of citizenship, and particularly a consequence of the doc l trines of the church concerning ;be i; calamities predicted in scrIpLgre as ac- compartments of the last days, preced- | ing the second advent of the Christ.
 Mormonism, said the speaker does not sanction war any more than it sane ] tions sin. But sin is a fact in the world and must be met and so with the present world conflict. He proceeded to show that such evils as war are in evitable results of definite causes an1 emphasized the distinction. between the will of Deity and Gods permitting the existence of evil.
 He affirmed the omnipotence of Dsi ty in the assurance that eventual good will be brought out of this great evil and held that when the titanic struggle is halted the world will regard the fun damentals of human liberty from new angles. The lecturer went on to say that the nation had entered the wal for the vindication of the rights oi mankind and likened the conflict tC the primeval war between unembodied spirits of which the scriptures bear rec ! OIu. nIcu LuClltls SUI OA tAC hAOi hAh6 and arch-autocrat, fought and was cast out with all his rebellious hords. Dr Talmage held that Gods foreknow ledge that such conflict would ensue was not a determining cause. The
 state oi the world in latter days was I foreseen, and the war of nations was foretold by inspired prophetsN as a I means of establishing on surer f0un
 dation the rights of conscience and ac
 tion. He stated that the Mormon church is peculiarly and directly con cerned in the outcome, inasmucn as the church holds that upon it has been laid the divine commission to carry the f message of the restored gospel 10 ev- cry nation, kindred, tongue and people until the doors of the nations are open ed to free speech. free press, freedom in worship and liberty of conscience with the ever-present condition that such liberty shall be held sacred and

 The lecturer answered questions put to him by several members of his audience. The gist of hte question ing led to showing that the whole country was in the hands of one or two monopolists and that there were few chances, if any, for American en- terprise at present.

 Commander w. E. Franklin, in charge of the camp recently declared: Peace with victory over Germany can only be achieved by continuing our preparations for war with increased energy and firmer resolve. Hope ot peace, slackening the preparation and restraining the energetic prosecution of the war, is a perilous dream. The organization and training of this naval reserve force should be a source of pride to the entire country"
 Remarkable things in the way ol quick construction have been accom- pIished on the great S00-acre tract in the last few months and today, what was once a beautiful forest on the edge of an arm of Long Island Sound is a model community with electrically lighted, steam heated buildings aud we'll arranged and paved streets Fol instance, a comfortable structure cap able of housing 12S men, was put up 1T two days and this speed has been mair tained ever since camp opened.

Guard House For Him

@. M. Serg. Ray Steele. of Camp
Lewis, says this is the best war
story told thus far. A San Fran.
cisco life underwater was recently
drafted into the army and immedi-
ately upon his arrival in camp a
dairy was started. The following
is from his book: They took me
from a good job and put me in the
army. They took away my good
clothes and gave me olive drab and
heavy clothing. They took away
my name and gave me number.
No. 494. They make me go to bed
when | am not sleepy and make me
get up when | am. They make me
go to church which | never did be-
fore. The other day the preacher
said: we will now turn to No. ..494.
Art thou weary, art thou footsore?'
and | said He'll yes and they gave
me ten days in the guard house.
