ALL DESERVING
OF WRIST WATCHES

The Copper Camp made an error in
a recent issue which, if not corrected,
would leave a decidedly wrong impress
sion among some of our boys now in
the cantonments or at the front I'm
der the heading of "Red Cross Activi-
ties" an item was printed giving the
Information that wrist watches would
be sent this month to those of the sol
diers deserving them" The word "de-
serving" in some manner was used in
the place of the word desiring" Of
course, we will lay it on the printer,
and the printer will say that it was the
fault of the man writing the copy, but
no matter who was at fault, it was all
wrong. All soldiers are deserving of
the watches and more, too, if such
was possible to send The folks back
home here at Ray feel that way and
are doing everything they can to show
the boys who have gone into the serv-
ice that they are with them heart and
soul. Some time ago the Red Cross
officials wrote the soldiers who had
gone from Ray asking for information
as to who desired wrist watches This,
of course, was for the purpose of not
duplicating where watches we're al
ready possessed. Many answers were
received, but when it came to pur-
chasing the watches a Limited supply
were available. Consequently twenty
five watches were sent and the re-
mainder were arranged for. That is,
for those who "desired" same, not
those who deserved" same. The er
ror of the Copper Camp has caused
the Red Cross officials great con-
Germ and rightfully so. The Copper
Camp was to blame and promises to
be more careful hereafter.

pounds. A statement to the effect that
the sugar is to be used for canning
purposes must be filed with the mer.
chant from whom the purchase is
required, a special permit must be OBJ

traitor. No sugar for home canning
purposes will be sold except on
the filing of the proper state
ment showing that the sugar is
to be used for that purpose and
that any excess will be returned
to the dealer. These statements are
to be sent to the federal food admin
istrator for the purpose of checking
the canned fruit situation.
The federal food administrator for
Arizona has received letter from
Washington stating that fraud has
been practiced to some extent in this
state and as a result an investigation
has been started. In this connection
dealers are warned that to isue sugar
for canning without householders'
statements, or to fail to return such
certificates t0<the federal food admin
istrator at Flagstaff, is violation of
the regulations and makes the dealer
liable to the penalties of the food con-
troll act.

able dish, cold cream jar could be
used. Instead of hastily packing the
luncheon in a few minutes after break
fast, when appetite is dulled and imag
ination dormant, it should receive as
much, or even more, consideration
than other meals of the day as if eat
en- after several hours of work, when
the need for food is uppermost.
Miss Zimmerman also spoke on the
necessity for wheat conservation; that
it is the duty of every loyal citizen 10
abstain from the use of wheat until
next harvest. In the use of wheat
substitutes in baking, a combination
of two or more kinds of flour gives
better results than when one is used
alone. Barley and rice flour make an
excellent combination. Good pie crust
can be made from barley flour alone
Satisfactory yeast breads cannot be
made from substitute flours alone. 1t

Making the long journey all the way
from Chisholm, Mimi, to Arizona by

Stevie Borick arrived this week to
join their father here. The three
small globe-trotters, who are aged 10,

his two younger brothers all along the
way, and in this task he was assisted
by friendly conductors, who looked
out for the lads. At Phoenix they
were taken care of by deputies from
the sheriff's office, who cared for them
until their father arrived to meet them
and accompany them to Ray.

BADGER CASE IN
KANGAROO COURT

Manager Mcneil of the Owl drug
store was arrested, tried and con
victed before Judge Tom Morton last
Saturday on a charge of dispensing
information on badger fights.
The courtroom was crowded with
spectators as Mcneil entered to face
the charges. A heavy silence hung
over the crowd as the enormity of the
charges was realized Attorney John
Bruce, for the state, made passion
ate appeal to Judge Morton, pleading
for the maximum punishment.
Attorney C. L. Pelsue, for the de-
fense, outlined the prisoners previous
good character and introduced testi-
mony to substantiate his assertions,
but the court sustained the repeated
objections of the prosecuting attorney
and the evidence was stricken from
the records.
The fact was established beyond a
doubt that Mcneil had been guilty of
the heinous crime,s and a jury of
twelve good men and true were
charged to bring in a verdict of
Guilty" The jury did not deliberate.
Foreman Paul Whitehead announced
the jury's decision. Judge Morton
then pronounced the sentence:

DEv|NE NEW MANAGER TROY-ARZONA;
DEVELOPMENT WORK To Be RUSHED

John C. Devine has been appointed
manager of the Troy-Arizona and has
already taken charge of development
operations at that property.
This important piece of mining news
was announced Monday of this week,
when Devine established headquarters
at Troy and assumed the duties of
manager.
Appointment of Devine to manage
and direct operations at Troy-Arizona
followed the recent visit to Arizona of
Charles H. Barney of Whitmore, King
& Barney of Boston, but the selection
of the new manager was not an
nounced until just before he actually
took over operations at the Troy mine
Devine succeeds Roy G. Mead, who
resigned some weeks ago.
Thoroughly qualified by reason. of
his experience in this district, and full
of an abiding faith in Troy-Arizc1a,
Devine is especially well fitted to di-
rect operations at that promising prop
erty. While not inclined to make any
high-sounding predictions as to what
may be expected he indicated this
week that he had every reason to be-
lieve that big mine would be opened
at Troy through the carrying out of
the development work which is being
undertaken under his direction.
Il firmly believe that we will be
able to open up an ore body of impor-
tance at Troy" said Devine this week,
in discussing operations at the prop
erty. years ago I worked at the
Troy, and l feel confident that further
development will show very gratifying
results
The selection of John Devine to
manage the Troy-Arizona mine should
be most gratifying news to the stock
holders in that company, for it was
John Devine who in 1902 went to work
for the Troy Manhattan Copper COM
pany as foreman and for five years
personally directed the work of open
ing up over five miles of development
at the same time advancing from the
post of foreman to assistant superin-
tendent. 1t was only when the COM
pany, being financially unable to con-
tinue operations, had to close down,
that Devine reluctantly gave up the
search which he is now, over ten years
later, reSuming.
From 1906 until 1916 Devine was in
the employ of the Ray Consolidated,
being assistant superintendent of
mines here at the time he resigned
two years ago last month Since that
time he has been engaged as presi-
dent and managing director of Pinal
Development company in opening up
the larfe property of that corporation,
and has now attained a most credit
able showing.
The fact that Devine is taking over
the management of operations at Troy
does not mean that he is relinquish-
ing in any way his interest in Pinal

ing in mere bodily contentment,
part of a state that knows neither
truth nor honor, the world has so re-
VOTED that even people long domin-
ated and suppressed by force have
now begun to stir and arm them
selves.
Centuries of subjugation have not
destroyed the racial aspirations of the
many distinct peoples of eastern Eu-
rope, nor have they accepted the sor-
did ideals of their political and mill
tary masters. They have survived the
slow prosecutions of peace as well as
the agonies of war; and now demand
recognition for their just claims to au-
tonomy and self-government. Repre-
sentatives of these races are with you
today, voicing their loyalty to our
ideals and offering their services in
the common cause. ask you, fellow
citizens, to unite with them in making
this our independence Day, the first
that shall be consecrated to decIara-
ton of independence for all the peo-
pies of the world"
Rev. J. c. Phillips of Phoenix deliv-
cred an address dealing with many
topics covering the course of the world
war and the necessity of our backing
up the boys in the trenches to the ut
most, and pledging our resources to
Uncle SAM. His remarks were greet
ed with prolonged applause. Tom
atty League was the next speaker, and
he emphasized our supporting our sol
diers in every way possible.
The next number on the program
was an address by Mr. l.. S. Gates.
Mr.. Gates is not given to public speak
ing, but on this occasion saw fit to
break long established rule, and his
remarks were most heartily welcomed
by the assembled crowd He said he
was proud of Ray and the way that
Ray had gone over the top in war
to Uncle Sam by generous contribu-
tions to the Red Cross war chest.
The highest praise. Mr.. Gates de-
clared, was deserved by the women of
Ray who are devoting their time to
the Red Cross in making garments and
surgical dressings. "If the people of
Ray could see the letters l receive
daily" said the speaker, "they would .
give three rousi1g cheers for the la-
dies Of Ray"
In the course of his remarks, Mr..
Gates stated that Lieut.. e. T. Green,
who is now an aviator in the service
of the American forces overseas, is
now flying big Farnam plane Green,
like many others of the boys from
Ray, was formerly in the employ of
the Ray Con-, is now doing his utmost
for Uncle Sam.
Mr.. Gates defined the position of the
mining companies with respect to the
war, and said there is not company&
that is not willing to be taxed to thd
utmost to aid in every possible Wa
nor were any representations be
made to have taxes reduced. He
ferred to the increase in the prid
copper effective until August Is
expressed the hope that whep
definite information was

make possible an increase

ceived with hearty appreciation.
The celebration concluded with a

proved fitting conclusion to the
events of the day. Excellent music
for the dancing was furnished by the
Ray Consolidated band.

Whereas Bohemia for centuries
has struggled for Independence and
the realization Of her nationalistic
ideals and aspirations and the peo-
pie Of said country by their inherent
greatness, moral worth, Industrial
progress and intellectual capacity and
achievements are entitled TO self
government and all the rights and
prerogatives that belong TO q few
people and to an independent sover-
eign state, and
Whereas in this dark hour the
people Of said country are striving
to realize their nstic nalistic aspira-
tons and to establish a government
Of and by and for the people Of said
country and to emancipate them
selves from the sbsolutism and op-
preston OF the Austrian and German
empires:
Therefore, resolved. by the Senate
OF the United States, that nGtionsl
aspirations OF the Bohemian people
for freedom and self-government have
the earnest sympathy Of the United
States and this nation will welcome
the Bohemian people and the sovereign
independent state which they may or.
ganise into the community and fel.
lowship OF free and liberty-lovins
people"

pressed sympathy with and approval
