PROCLAMATION
 FUR BUY WORK
 |S AN APPEAL

calling upon the boys of the state 10 Joln the United States Boys Work ing Reserve and aid in increasing the Piouuctlon Of the farms of the state the coming season, Governor Hunt has issued proclamation setting aside the week of March IS during which to en- roll for this patriotic work.
 The proclamation istas follows: state of Arizona,
 executive Department.
 A Proclamation
 The greatest duty of our country to- day Is the feeding of the armies and me other people of the Allied Nations. II we Tail in this, the sending of an army to the battlefields of France would be worse than useless And since In our struggle for the freedom of the world we will brook no thoughts of failure we must devise the most eff IectlVe and most efficient methods in every branch of endeavor.
 Responsive to the call there is an acreage of crops now planted in our country unprecedented in our history. But on the other hand thousands upon thousands of men have left the fields and the cities and gone to the training camps and the battlefields. To fill these gaps and to take care of the ad . dltional farm work is the problem-onc or the problems-of those left behind.
 Last year at the beginning of our great struggle, Arizona, l am proud to say, was one of the states to take the lead in facing this question. One of Inc solutions was to have the boys from sixteen to twenty-one go into the fields, and the results achieved fan exceeded expectations. Farmers and ranchers who were dubious at the thought of irresponsible youth are now clamorinS for the boys. and are un hestant Tn their assertions that the boys almost double the efficiencv of the imported foreign labor.
 The Secretary of Labor, with the ap- proval of the President of the United states. is sponsor for the United States Boys Working Reserve.
 NOW, THEREFORE, l. GEORGE w. r. HUNT, Governor of Arizona. do hereby proclaim for this State, in ac- cordance with the National program, the week of March eighteenth as En- rollment Week for the United States Boys Working Reserve and urge ev- cry boy between the ages of sixteen and twenty-one. physically able to work, enroll under such regulations as may be made by MT. Lindley B. Orme, of Phoenix. Arizona, Director Of the Reserve for this state. To the parents I would say that there is no intention 10 take the boys from the schools, and whether 1t is necessary that they work Tor financial reasons or not is beside the question. If they do not need the money so much the better: have them invest it in war bonds. or donate if to war work.

Harry Holmes came back to New York the other day.
 You may not know Harry Holmes. But the fellows who go over the top in France and those who come staggering back again by way of the painted posts when the battle is over know him. He has gripped more of them by the hand as they went, and greeted more of them with a cup of hot tea as they came painfully back, than almost any other man over there.
 British Army Officials know him, too. For it was Harry Holmes who or ganized the Young Mems Christian as sociation work for the walking wounded. It was through his efforts. and those of other men like him. that there sprung up on the eve of the great battles the little "Y'' shacks, all within shell fire, the nearest only 25O yards behind the firing line, which have been of untold service to .innum- erable wounded Tommies, on their way
 back from the battle-fiel to the rail-
 way evacuating posts.
 The Title He Prefers is "Chum" Harry Holmes is an Australian. and
 he used to write F. R. C.. s. after his name, in those distant days before the war when personal achievement meant something. Now, he much prefers the title of "Chum,' which the wounded Tommies have given him. For two years Harry Holmes, with smile on | his lips, and his life in his hands the greater part of the time, has been sta toned as near the battlefront as he could get. He was at Ypres, at the
 Battle of Wyschaete, and at Messines. He has poured tea for wounded sol
 diers from cellars and dugouts and
 ruined churches, and abandoned Ger
 man pill boxes" with shells bursting around him.
 There is a romance behind his brief leave of absence from the front. He came to America to marry Miss Jean

The victim of undue use of Can nabls lndica, or as it is commonly called marihuana, Dr. H. T. Doak, Five Points veterinarian, was yester- day adjudged insane and committed to the Arizona State hospital. In the custody of Sheriff w. H. Wilky and Deputy Charles Nafziger, Dr. Doak. was taken to the hospital late yes terday afternoon.
 On several occasions recently Dr. Doak has been picked up by the police and lodged in the city jail. No particular charge was lodged against the veterinarian and he was released as soon as his condition seemed to warrant. On Tuesday of last week he created disturbance on Central avenue, between Washington and Ad- ans streets and was taken into GUS tody. Later he was released
 Saturday afternoon he was again observed to be profoundly under the influence of the drug, which he is said to have employed in concocting some sort of a beverage He ap- peared about Five Points partly dressed. The police were summoned and took him to the city jail There his condition did not improve and he was finally adjudged insane and removed to the hospital.

SCRAPBOOK WORTH
 NEARLY $150,000
Chicago Journal)

What is probably the most valuable and certainly the most interesting
 scrapbook of the United States is a large volume owned by the government and kept by Major Albert R. Quaiffe who has charge of the safe at tho
 reasury department in Washington This scrapbook contains specimens
 of every kind of paper money issued by the United States government since 1865, when Major Qualiffe assumed his
 present duties, and the face value of the notes pasted in the book is $76, ,000.
 Inasmuch as many of the notes are
 now obsolete, while others have a con- siderable historic value, the scrapbool
 would undoubtedly bring in the neigh borhood of $150,000 if it were put up at auction.
 Shortly after he took charge of the big vaults where the treasury depart ment stores the money that it pays out
 every day over it's counter, Major Quaiffe conceived the idea of starting a scrapbook that would serve a double purpose-as a record of the various is-
 sues of paper money authorized by the
 government and as means of identi- fication of old notes.
 On a number of occasions the book has been of great service in detecting Icounterfeits of old issues or in identi- flying bills with which banks were not familiar. It would probably be vary
 hard to cash some of the paper money in this scrapbook at the present day, for many of the older bills are queer
 looking. There is a $100 gold certifi- cate, dated January 2. 1877, that is en- graved on one side only.
 The value of the book is constantly
 increasing, for in addition to the bills
 that are added to the collection from time to time, the old notes become
 more valuable.
 The scrapbook, as befits so precious
 a volume, is kept in safe at the treas ury department, over which hangs a frame inclosing three government
 notes-a gold certificate for $10,O0O, a
 silver certificate for $10,000 and an- o+bar c;lvar cartificato for S5 Ca0

 GO|NGF0RWARD

Supplemental registration proceeded briskly yesterday, total of 127 new names being added to the list during the day This brought the grand total of names added to the great register since the primary election to 630. The plan of City Clerk Thomas to keep his office open evenings dur ing the remainder of the registration period has resulted in many other wise eligible voters appearing after the usual closing hour and adding their names to the registration list.
 There are now but four more days and evenings in which supplemental registration may be made. It was the belief of those in charge of this registration that at least 1000 new names would be added to the great register over those appearing thereon before the primary election. If the record of yesterday is maintained there will be something over the esti- mated number.
