Beauty.

Talk as we may Of beauty as
thing to be chiseled from marble or
wrought out on. canvas; speculate as
we may upon its colors and outlines;
what is it but an intellectual abstrac-
tion. after all2 The heart feels a
beauty of another kind; looking
through. the outward environment, it
discovers a deeper and more real love-
liness.-Whittier. ~

No Disgrace to Be Hypnotized.

An idiot or a person without con-
siderable ability in concentrating his
mind can not be hypnotized. The fact
that one has been hypnotized is proof
that he can hold his mind on one sub
ject. 1t is, therefore, not to his dis.
credit, but rather the contrary.

OIdtime Mirrors.

Mirrors were used by Anglo-Saxon
women slung to their girdles. The
SAME custom prevailed in the time of
Elizabeth and James I. They formed
the center of many fans at that period
and later. Before glass was invented
horn and metal were used.

Human Nature.

Modern thinking. proposing to found
morality solely upon the principles Of
human nature, will have to take ac-
count of all there is in human nature.
And one of the first things we meet
there is the necessity, in order that
man may come to his true self, that
he is possessed by something. some one
beyond himself.-Jonathan Brierley.

THE EMPTY STOCKING

The Empty Stocking club is growing, little faster every day but it has not good start yet. Several persons joined yesterday, and one reader at Tempe sent in money through the Farmers and Merchants bank there. Others, among them little girl, volun- tered their services in stocking filling and half dozen names of children who will need aid on Christmas morning were sent in.
 But it is expected that the real growth will begin today or at least within the week. Friends have volun- teered systematic assistance.
 It must be remembered, though that the club cannot wait until Christmas to get under way and Christmas is only a few days in the distance. This is not like Christmas buying when one can rush in the last hour and buy gifts The gifts of the Empty Stocking club must be in readiness for distribution the day before. Its machinery is more complicated than that of the ordinary Christmas giving.
 If things should go wrong there will be an awful lot of disappointment on Christmas morning and it will be felt by little children who have already all the trouble they can bear. They must not be forgotten or overlooked.
 We should think that fathers and mothers could really enjoy Christmas if they thought that there was a poor child in the city who has no Christmas,

Do Not Delay

There are only about ten days in which to carry out and wind up the operations of the Empty Stock ing Club for this year. In ten days much may be done if we set about doing it. But delays are dan gerous. The danger Is in mounting ratio to the number of persons engaged in the delay
 If there only person he might fool away q lot of time and then by heroic spurt toward the last. under the wire with colors flying
 But this is a business that requires the work of a good many people and when thing is dependent upon many, such thing a squirt is impossible. spurts be the result only of individual achieve ment and then, they not to be depended lpon, and so, should not be encouraged.
 We already have many volunteers for the Empty Stocking Club but not enough. Nor have we enough empty stockings to be filled. We want long, er lists of both volunteers and empty stockings
 We urge our readers to help get them If you do not know of child in your neghborhood who needs help Christmas morning will you not make nquiry of your neighbors and let us know?
 Do this and do not finger. It's the biggest and most urgent thing for the children We know of.

 Even if the soviet should prevail and spread all the condition. Mir. Bryan when secretary of state, had in mind when he urged non-interference with Mexico while working out it's destiny the soviet may be the hand of Mexican destiny.
 Also, it might be the better if the soviet should prevail in that orgies close to would force the United states do something. The soviet would probably be so administered in Mexico that there would be illustrated the principle of the physician whose speciality powerful compound that threw his patients regardless of the character of their ailments into fits.

The Teacher

From almost every state in the union come re- ports of shortage of teachers. In one small east rn state it is said that than 500 schools are without teachers this winter. The situation is bad in the west where better salaries paid put the salaries at the best are insufficient. The shortage of teachers however, does not tell he whole disagreeabe story We have no means of knowing how many competent teachers have been driven out of the field and whose places have been filled by incompetents who have accept the ridiculous salaries paid teachers in some parts of he country. Without doubt there among them many who better than no teachers at all.
 Though teachers in most parts of the country are better paid than they used to be- and better paid before the higher cost of living forced an ad- of wages in all employment the attitude of the teacher to his profession has greatly changed within the last fifty years.

 How much Mir. Scott accomplished for the Salt River Valley cannot be measured His voice was not heard in assemblases but his work appeared in his chronicles of the valleys progress, his constant endeavor to make known it's greatness and it's possi- bities; his constant association with men who were working for the valley and his steady encouragement and support of them.
 His faith in Phoenix and in the valley unbounded and his opportunities to prove his faith were so numerous that he might easily have been rich man. But he never cared for wealth. he wanted only to and help.
 It was for that reason that nearly seven years ago he bought the Arizona Magazine He believed it could be developed into periodical cf country wide circulation carrying into every state monthly message of the Salt River Valleys progress and convincing prophecy of it's future
 That his vision would have been realized is very probable, but immediately after the first issue of the magazine under ms management ne was StrlCken with that baffIng malady whose mystery never solved. For the next five months he confined to his home, the greater part of that time, to his bed. Though later he recovered sufficiently to attend to his duties he always handicapped by state of ill., health which would have kept prostrated, one whose heart less in his work.
 It a marvel to his friends how in his condition, unable to walk racked with pain, could so ignore his physical afflicton It was, perhaps the least of his trbulations that in the period of his ill., ness at times of his absolute hepIessness, there coming about a realization of the vision he had of future Phoenix and valley. But may be mis- taken. It may that the coming true of his dreams may have been a solace in the midst of his afflc- lion. But it must have been grief to him that he could not take the active part in the order that he had taken in the old
 The life of MT. Scott constant struggle from boyhood. He kept it up to the end. Disease of The most prostratine character could not conquer him. Death found him still worker
 No man deserving of the thanks of community than MT. Scott is deserving of the gratitude of the people of the Salt River Valley.
