(By DOROTHY TROY. ]

tBy DOROTHY TROY.)
 There was a general assembly of both Junior and Senior High schools Monday afternoon in the auditorium. The program was as follows:
 Dance. Second grade pupils Song Fairyland Waltz. ..-..
 ............ Girls Glee Club. Song" Pippa's Song" .......
 Girls Glee Club speech. A. A. Allan Song" May Morning Song" .
 Girls Glee Club Song-''The Dancers Girls Glee Club
 Representative Allan's talk was, of course, the attraction cf the afternoon. He told many things about dogs, the dogs of the Arctic in particular, which he had found out in his extensive handling of them. He attributed to dogs many characteristics which sound rather surprising to one who has less knowledge of them.
 He affirmed that they have excel lent memories and good reasoning powers as well as great cleverness in stealing. He illustrated these qualities by incidents which he had seen. Mir. Allan said that in deal ing with dogs there are but three thing to remember. They are: kind ness, frmness and appreciation. They should be treated, according to him, just as children should. He also told interesting details about the renowned dog races of the north ir which he and his dogs had often taken part. Mir. Allan's talk was greatly enjoyed by the students as was shown by the enthusiastic ap- plause which broke out when he was finished.

ENCLOSED CARS MUST INSTALL SIGNALLING DEVICES ON JUNE F

Rear-end signalling devices must be Installed on all enclosed motor cars and motor trucks having loading beds, beginning June 12, according to a law passed recently by the Arizona state legislature.
 In anticipation of this law, Cal Messner, local Hudson and Essex dis uibutor, ordered large stock of sig mailing devices, which he has now on display at his show room on North Central avenue. The devices are built to indicate by an arrow, which may be turned in all directions by the driver of the motor car upon which it is installed. the direction in which the motor car is to be turned. The device is, in effect, the equivalent of the com mon method of extending the arm on approaching a turn. In the enclosed car, however, the arm of the driver cannot be extended to attract et.en- ton. and the device becomes a nsces- sity.
 Cal Messner declares that the sig mailing devices are valuable for other ears as well as enclosed ones, and he advocates their use by all motorists. Carl Anderson, the local automobile insurance man. states that motor cars equipped with these devices are pro- teeted sufficiently in the eyes of ais company for it to allow g per cent of fon the insurance premium.

DESIGNS FLAG FUR
 LEAGUE IF NATIONS

Francis Frazier, long 8 resident Of this county. has designed a League of Nations flag which at the proper time he will submit to a committee of the league authorized to make 8 selection of a banner. The Frazier design is @ beautiful but simple one. It has bor- der of white and within are three stripes, blue, green and red. These colors are symbolical of truth. of green fields on which the world lives, and of blood. This is the order in time of peace.
 But In time of war, for Mir. Frazier contemplates war as possibility even under a League of Nations, the flag is to be reversed, with the red stripe above, signifying that 'blood is up."
