THREE EC'S" |S THE OFFERING 0F THIS
 STATE T0 AID WAR

The importance of Arizona as u war material producing state is sig nified by recent statement by trade authorities that it is estimated that STA per cent of the total American copper production is used for war pur- poses. The fact that Arizona produces over one-third, of the copper of the United States, and about 25 per cent of the copper of the world, emphasizes copper as an essential industry. Recent reports of producers have indicated that the disposal of their product for war purposes averages ap- proXimately 95 per cent. The average monthly output of refined copper is about 200.000,000 pounds; the per cent remaining, therefore, would represent about 10000000 pounds available for | normal consumption.
 Whatever needs exist for normal | domestic manufacture. the actual de- mand of metal for this purpose is l practically nil as the plants are other wise occupied. This alone is suffi cient to account for the small amount | of metal left over. It is pointed out that while the United States. a pro- ducer of three fourths of the world $ l supply of copper, entered the wal about a year and a half ago, and the exclusion of practically all domestic manufacturing has been affected by progressive steps. the internal indus try of the country has not famished for copper for normal use to anything like the extent of European depri- vation.
 The allies, almost wholly dependent on imports, began four years ago to use our metal in the manufacture oI munitions, and it is believed that theiI stock for home consumption has long since been depleted.
 A prominent Arizonan. when asked what part Arizona was playing in the war, replied that she was doing more than her share in liberty bonds, enlist ments and subscriptions to the various semi military activities. but more thar that she was furnishing the thre' C's, Copper, Cotton and Cattle.

NIGHT SCHOOLS ARE
 HELD FUR MEX|CANs

Night schools for Americanization work among the Spanish speaking peo- pie are being opened in various parts of the state. One of the latest to re- port is at St. Johns where classes were started last week. Separate lessons are held for the men and the women. The enrolment is reported good and the work is being carried on with en- thusiasm.
 This work is part of the war pro gram of the government, though the funds for the night schools come from an appropriation made by the last state legislature for the purpose of beginning such work It is to be hoped that greater provision will be made of the first opportunity in order that Arizona may not fall behind in this valuable enterprise.

FLAGSTAFF NORMAL
 DEFEATS W|NSLON|

The football team representing the Northern Arizona Normal school at Flagstaff on Saturday defeated the strong eleven from Winslow by a score of 33~t to 0. The game was played at Flagstaff. The work of the normal eleven was excellent; their forward passes, brilliant end runs and fierce line plunges proving too much for the Win slow boys, although the latter fought hard all through the game.
 The Flagstaff Normal team has a hard schedule, including games with the Phoenix Union High school, the University of Arizona and the New Mexico Agricultural college.
