Ford cars are important servants
everywhere. They help the family
enjoy life. bring the pleasures and
advantages of the town within reach
of the farmer and give practical ser
vice every day in country and town.
They require minimum of atten-

care for it, hut it is better to have
repairs and replacements taken
care of by those who are familiar
with the work and have the tools

ROTARIANS THANK SERVICE MEN AND
 BOOST GOOD ROADS

A resolution of appreciation in behalf of the service men, who rendered such valuable assistance in the recent Vic tory loan campaign by devoting their entire time, without compensation, to this cause, was passed at the weekly luncheon at the Rotary club which was held yesterday at 12 o'clock in the Gen. tral school building.
 The club was favored with Q short talk by Captain Arthur C. Taylor, a service man who has recently returned to his home here. The captain told in teresting details concerning the life of a soldier and expressed his pleasure of being in Phoenix once more.
 Good roads, however, was perhaps the main topic of the hour and boost ing" road talks were delivered by sev- eral members. The club went on rec ord as being heartily in favor of the proposed bond issue for building paved highways in Maricopa county, the cleo ton for which is being held today.
 Following are the members who ad- dressed the club upon the subject of Good Roads: Warren McArthur, w. H. Knox, R. P. Davie and w. $. Colds worthy.

which has accumulated for three years to the sum of nearly a $1,000,000.
 County funds are being raised to meet this fund, to make up this deficit.
 "Coconino, Cochise, Greenlee, and Pima have county funds available now. Cochise, Pima, Pinal, Mohave, Graham, Santa Cruz, and Yuma counties are planning bond issues. Any county that does not raise money will lose part of the benefit of federal aid.
 "The state highway department is confining state road funds and the federal aid to match them to the through routes of the state, improving first the most used parts of these through routes. MaricOpa county will receive approximately $500,000 in fed eral aid in the next two years if she raises the money to match it.
 The only criticism heard about the bonds is that the fund is not large enough to pave all the roads that de- serve it. State road funds will be available to pave many of the outlying through routes of the county before the bond issue is expended. This bond issue will make a good start; Rome was not built in day"

all the hundreds and thousands OF
women in all parts of the country
who are working for equal suffrage,
recalls the fact that she made tour

In speaking OF the outlook for SUE

The fact that every southern state
is organized for suffrage, that south

in the cause and that local southern
organizations are increasing their
membership by leaps and bounds is
proof to the whole country that the

seem fairly sure OF winning Suffra ge-
There is never in pause in the on

this year the prospect of winning
votes for women looks brighter TO me
than ever before.
There is nothing more hopeful
than a campaign for suffrage. Its
educational work cannot be overesci-
mated

1916 was reit especially IN the SOuth-
ern states where suffrage sentiment
is steadily gainging ground. Every

ganized and the statement so often
made that the southern woman is
against us is daily refuted.
The cause of woman suffrage can
not stand still. Every year brings
US some new gains and the best part
of being a Suffragist is the knowledge
that you are fighting to win. Even
our opponents admit it. Anti-suffra-
