SUPERVISORS HOLD
 SESSION MONDAY

The beard of supervisors were in session today with Chairman V. H. Johnson absent in California, owing to illness The principal matter up today was the consideration of the budget of expenses for the county fer the coming year and most of the day was spent chaceking the expense nee sssary for the various departments of county government.
 Several other matters were up also, including the county seat removal pc ution and a communication from Gov ernOr Hunt announcing the appoint ment of Chas M Roberts on the eoun- ell of defense to represent COchise county. The communication was read and the matter laid on the table for further action, when a full member ship of the board could be present to act on the confirmation which will probably be at the next meeting
 The budget. which has not yet been completed, will be finished within a few days and published, according to law, which will show the actual ex- pense of each department for the past year and the estimated expense for the coming years. It is expected to be larger than last year since prices have advanced materially, while last year no election was held.

French National Feast Day Is Celebrated Here by Meet ing Addressed by Judge Baker and Other Orators

Bisbee gave full recognition to the feeling of sympathy for beautiful France, when a patriotic meeting, held Sunday night at the Orpheum theater, was addressed by the Hon. Albert c. Baker Of Phoenix, who in eloquent terms described the kinship of the na- tions This meeting originally was scheduled to be held in the city park, but owing to the inclemency of the weather, it was necessary to have the crowd gather in the Orpheum.

millions of men released from the armies, glad to work for any kind of pay, and em- ploying them to compete with workers here in the United States.
 These are the days of bright sunshine, the golden days, the Big Pay" days, with the double pay for overtime days,
 Take advantage of these sunny days for the rainstorm is coming.
 In one great shipyard this writer recently investigated conditions. The men are very cheerful They get for eight hours work on a weekday twice as much as they ever got before. If they work Saturday after moons, or Sunday, they get double the pay for weekdays; in other words, they can earn on Sunday four times as much as they ever earned in one day of their life before.
 Thousands of these shipyard workers be- lieve they have discovered what they call a great scheme.
 They take off two weeks days for idle ness and work on Sunday.
 During two days in the week they do nothing, they enjoy themselves.
 On Sunday they work, and being paid double, they make as much from that one QdV as IlGv COulQ nave Oy WOIhlIlS Oll liAC two days spent in idleness.
 A young man, questioned as to the wis dom of this course, said: q never made so much money in my life never thought there was so much money In five days a week, including Sunday, 1 make three or four times as much as ever made in my life before. l need the two days that take off to spend the money that earn in five days"
 That young man will remember that in days to come.
 A time Is coming when no workman will need two whole days to spend what he IS able to earn in five.
 Many workers, including the young and energetic, say quite solemnly: I mustn't overwork myself; mustn't endanger my health.
 No man ever voluntarily overworked himself. Slaves have been driven to death, including sweatshop slaves But what a man does because he wants to, or thinks he ought to, does no harm.
 The pauper's field Is inhabited by men killed by what they did between jobs, not killed by overwork-and the same IS true of nearly all the graveyards.
 This country has the right to demand that every man should produce all that he can.
 If man who works only five days a week, knowing that his brothers are risk ing their lives in France, and knowing that those men are responsible for the big wages, that man Is a coward.
 A man who refuses to do the best Tn him when his country needs work IS a bad citizen, bad American, and no lying will change that fact.
 A man that has children depending upon him, who has promised to take care ot the woman he has married and who fails to work, like man, during this golden har- vest, is no man at all.
 And in addition, the man who does not today take advantage of circumstances, work full day, work seven days if neces- sary, and save, is more than bad cltlzen' more than coward is a fool.
 He may not like to have that said, but none the less it is something that needs saying.

recent years Virginia has ranked

for all building materials has been
slackened by the war the demand for

no doubt revive when the country Is

OF the Richmond and Chesapeake Bay
line, and to use the atmosphere above

the City Hall to the Pamunkey river
over the route of the defunct Rich
mond and Rappahannock road. was
adopted.
The resolution waA fully discussed
before Anal action was taken. IT. was
shown by Superintendent Billy Thomp-
son that the plan could be easily
worked out. He argued that as it was
not necessary TO use water in operat-
ing the line, the stock would not be
necessarily watered, and accordingly
therefore become worthless at the flrst
freeze-out. He said that all that is
necessary for a successful operation
of the plan would be plenty of air.
Brother Rex arising to a parlia-
mentary Inquiry ventured the remark
that II the legislature could be- pre-
vailed upon to remain in our midst for
period OF time necessary to start
the lines going there would be no lack
of necessary air.
