SUPERINTENDENT DAVIS
 RECEIVES SIGNAL HONOR

Word reaches this office from Wash ington, D. C., that J. A. Davis, local superintendent of shools, has been appointed a member of the Interstate Character Education Methods Re search, consisting of four hundred and thirty-two professional educators, who will study for one year to dis cover, if possible, improved methods for educating the. character of child ren in the public schools of the Unit ed States.
 The reward for the successful group of collaborators, nine from each state, is a cash prize of $20,OOO.
 This emphasis in education is i'm perative for the reason that the crisis has been reached in the devef opment of republican-democratic gov ernment abroad and the certainty that important social changes will be made at the close of the present war. A republic, like ours, is responsive in all her affairs to the purposes and ambitions of the masses of her peo pie. to their judgments as to the right and wrong, or fair or unfair, and tc their likes and dislikes. The char acter of the masses of the people. in all it's expressions, controls the hap Diness, prosperity and development of the Nation. It is character edu cation of the Nations children that

MODIFIED SUGAR PRICES TO
 WHOLESALERS AND RETAILERS

R. K. Minson, county food admins trator, is just in receipt of advice from the Federal Food Administrator for Arizona, stating that our interpre- tation of the margin of profit allowed wholesalers and iobbers dealing in su- gar does not meet the approval of the Food Administration in Washing ton. The interpretation of the rule which the wholesalers and iobbers are required hereafter to comply with provides a margin of g cents on su- gar on the gross margin from deliver ed cost. Carriage in wagons into vour warehouse is not a proper ad- ditional charge.
 The wholesalers and retailers are therefore, required to modify their prices by eliminating drayage or cart age charge.
 Wholesale Quantities of Sugar.
 Effective March 9th, wholesale gro- cers should exercise great care, ac- cording to the demands of the retail CT. and should not sell sugar in quan- titles in excess of 300 to 1000 pounds at time to the buyer. Sugar should not be shipped without a positive or der from the buyer. Wholesale gro: cers should use every precaution at their command to prevent duplication of sales which may give to retailer the opportunity to have more sugar than is necessary for conservation distribution.

The topics are as follows: Confession of our coun- try's need; Supplication for victory for the righteous cause; for the men in service; and for our homes and homeland. A representative of each of the churches will have charge oi one of these divisions and will be allowed 15 minutes for the presenta tion of the topic.

 Clifton loses one of it's most esti- mable families in the departure of MT. and Mrs. A. T. Howard, who will leave here about March 18th, to make their home in Jerome. For the past seven years MT. Howard has been as- sistant superintendent of the Arizona & New Mexico Railway. His depar- ture from this place is made neces- sary by reason of the fact that he has recently accepted the appointment of superintendent of the Jerome-ver- de railroad, new road that has re- gently been constructed, which is a very lucrative and congenial posi- tion. His headquarters will be in Jerome. Many friends here regret the departure of this estimable couple.

NINETY H. p. CAR TOO
 SLOW FOR BOOTLEGGER

While returning from Carlisle one day last week John Slaughter oyer took an automobile which looked sus- picous, and proceeded to investigate. When he attempted to do so the car sped forward, and then a lively race began for a few miles, MT. Slaughter finally overriding the alleged boot logger, and stopped him to examine his tonnage. As he did so, the other reversed his car and sped backward, and notwithstanding MT. Slaughter was driving a 90-Cadillac and the other was in Tin Henry, his was not fast enough to overtake the fleeing car. After secreting his booty the party came on to Clifton, and when MT. Slaughter accosted him about what he was carrying, he denied all knowledge of the transac. ton.
 The 1aughable part of the incident was the fact that the supposed boot logger mistook John Slaughter fol Sheriff Arthur Slaughter. The form CT was merely amusing himself at the alleged bootleggers expense, after ht | was sure he had been taken for tht | sheriff.
