EVER GET THIS VIEWPoINT1

Citizens Of Arizona, support your
town or county paper if it is decent
regardless of politics or religion. Not
merely because it is entitled TO share
in the recognition of all home institu
tions, but because it means a lot to
you personally, though most OF you
will deny it.
Suppose the editor isn't up to your
own mental calibre. He's doing his
best and probably giving more than
the town pays fOr-and dollars to
doughnuts he has more brains than
most of his critics. Suppose you do
know most of the town gossip before
it is printed. Readers elsewhere are
not so fortunate and the town is often
judged by the appearance of it's news
paper. If you have no newspaper
your town has not arrived, and unless
you get one it never will arrive.
You take dailies and magazines as
you should do and have no time for
local trash, but just once a year there
is a wedding, funeral, or event of
some sort, either in the family or out
side of it, that you would be mighty
glad to see preserved in print and pay
two or three dollars for the privilege.
Once in a while a matter of public
concern arises that affects your pock-
etbOok much more than the price Of
subscription. A word to your neigh
bors might save the day, but no paper,
no chance. Had you glanced at the
special drive in the bum ad Of Cash e
Co. in last weeks issue you could have
saved the subscription price, but think
ing you knew all that was going on,
you missed it. You saw by the paper
that Brown was going to realign his
affairs. 1t was only "hunch," but
you made hundred dollars by selling
him something or buying something
of him. Never thought about giving
the paper credit.
1T WILL PAY you to take your
home paper and throw it little busi-
ness, even if you never read it-Ari-
zona Magazine.

SET CLOCKS BACK
SUNDAY OCT. &c

According to the provisions of the
act repeating the daylight saving bill,
all clocks will be turned back one
hour on Sunday, October 26, at 2 a. M,
thereby returning to regular standard
time.
The bill repealings the daylight saw
ing act was passed by congress over
the presidents veto, largely because
of opposition of the farmers of the
country to the setting of the clocks
forward one hour.
Here in Arizona, near the western
boundary of the zone using mountain
time, the change in time worked some
hardship, especially at the beginning
and again toward the close OF the six
months period. Through the middle
of the summer it worked admirably,
but in the spring and fall it was OBJ
viously an Inconvenience. Turning
the clock forward for three or four
months would be all right, and result
in a saving of artificial light to most
of us, but the six months period is
too long.

LEARN POULTRY
RAISING FROM
j. Of ARIZONA

The poultry department of the Uni
versity of Arizona has prepared Il
correspondence course in poultry pro-
duction. This course is designed spe-
officially to meet the needs of the
Arizona poultry raiser. The proper
methods of housing, feeding and
breeding, control of diseases and para
sites, and the problems of marketing
and management are treated in TWEEN
ty lessons.
This course should appeal to the
ranch wife who cares for small
flock of poultry as well as to the man
or woman who raises or intends to
raise poultry on a larger scale. Even
the city man or woman keeping a few
chickens in the back yard to cut down
the high cost of living would profit
greatly from the course.
When group of people in the same
community take the course, an ex-
tension representative of the poultry
department will visit them from time
to time TO conduct demonstrations in
culling, caponizing, etc.
A circular describing the course in
detail may be secured by writing to
Prof F. R. Kenney, University of Ari-
zona, Tucson.

TREND OF MODERN
EDUCATION TOWARD
PRAT|cAL COURSES
UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA,
Tucson, Oct. II.

Il tucson, Oct. H..
Granville Lowther of North Yakima,
Wash, we'll known to the fruit men
of the west as editor of the Encyclo-
pedia Of Practical Horticulture, is
visitor in Tucson -
While in attendance at meeting of
the Agricultural club, composed of
students taking agricultural courses
at the university, Mr.. Lowther said
Lately there have been marvellous
changes in the trend of education to-
ward the practical. Agricultural col
leges and experiment stations have
grown mostly in the last fifty years,
and the idea of the government putting
money into soil analysis, observations
on rainfall and climate in order to
know the crops best adapted and most
profitable under the different condi-
tiOns awakened a considerable OppOsi-
ton. Now we know that this means
millions of people are properly guided
in their efforts and that hundreds of
millions of dollars are annually added
10 the wealth of the country above
what accrued under the old system.
The introduction of industrial train
ing fits for the practical duties of life
and the home economics department
now SO popular in all up-to-date insti.
tutions makes better wives, mothers
and citizens.
Primarily, the business of education
is to train and develop humanity into
it's highest possible strength and eff
cheney, but incidentally, it is it's mis-
sion to teach how to supply what we
need in the quickest and easiest way.
Some day we will have one system
of standardized stenography. 1t will
be taught to the children in the pub
lie schools and a generation will be
trained to write as fast as they can
talk. The characters used in that sys-
tenn will be used in printing<and type
writing and the labor and expense Of
printing and copying will be one-fifth
of what it is now, while our system
of spelling will be eliminated"

JUGGEO FOR JAG
ON HAIR TONIC
Travelling Salesman Attempts to
Dispute Right-of Way With Big
Truck After Imbibing Freely of
Hair Tonic.

A travelling salesman, driving a dill.
apldated lizzy, got as far as the big
truck in front of Millers last Friday,
and as the Nash refused to be pushed
off the street by tin hzzy, the result
was Lizzy stopped, right in the middle
Of the street.
1t all came about because said T. 8.
was driving into town in a semi-intoXi-
Gated condition and could not round
the curve, as LiZzy had not been
trained to turn the corners by her
SELF.
A crowd soon gathered, but after
careful search all that could be found
was a pint bottle of hair tonic, with
the contents about half vanished.
Deputy Thurman, after having the
car put away and relieving the con-
jestion of the traffic, decided that the
fellow was apparently all right when
sober, and had him sleep off his jag
in the rear of the court house, and
after a good talking to allowed him
to go.

LIKE FATHER LIKE SON.

The old sea captain was smoking
comfortably by his fireside when Jack,
his sailor son, burst in upon him.

the Cape when a storm came on, a.id
it blew down the main mast, and the
mizzen-mast was swept away, but we

"Well, you see," explained the sen,
"this storm was so bad that it blew
the anchors off the captains buttons,
took the paint off the ships bows

"Stop!" cried the old man. "You

The president has signed the bill
providing for the suspension of annual
assessment work during 1919. AS al
ready reported, this provides that no
such suspension shall be granted to

VICTIMS OF THE
SOAP BOX NEED
CHANCE TO LEARN

A close student of affairs points out
that the prime movers in civil and in
dustrial disorder are almost invariably
of foreign extraction and birth or else
they have risen from the most litter
ate classes.
The deduction is that the impelling
thought which makes them disturbers
has its rise in ignorance of the princi-
Piles of economics and of government
A man who does not understand his
representation in the government will
: be prone to believe agitators' state
ment that he is not represented. A
man who does not understand the du
/. ties and powers of congress is easily
led to demand impossible things and
unwarrantable acts. A man who does
not understand the foundation and the
scope of civil authority can be per-
suaded that law and order are oppres-
sion.
How can a man vote on matters af-
fecting corporations when he does not
know what a corporation is? How can
a man instruct his representatives with
regard to the League of Nations when
he has not read the covenant? How
can a man decide on the railroad
question, when he does not know what
capitalization is, or earnings, or de-
probation, and has not the mental
foundation to find out? Yet the ig-
norant, urged by the unscrupulous and
the unbalanced, are always setting
their shoulders to the pillars, that they
may pull down the temple.
The question, then, becomes, to a
large extent, one of education. We
have an undigested foreign influx, part
of it unable even to speak our Ian
guage We have the illiterate of Amer
lean birth Also, we have a yearly
output of educated men from our uni
versities-men fresh from a good
foundation in the things the ignorant
ought to know. Instead of discourag-
ing them, by underpayment and too
stringent regulation, from teaching,
why should they not rather be encour-
aged to enter places made for them.
places in classrooms of many sorts?
Why must an education in civics, eco
nomics and the social sciences become
merely an instrument to permit man
to analyze the stock market with more
acumen or report city politics more en-
tertainingly?
One has only to talk with "the man
in the Street" to realize his abyssmal
Ignorance of what would seem the self
evident principles of economics. One
has only to see the scope and thor
oughness of French and German child
education to realize the superficiality
and ineffciency of much American
schooling.
There are those who now wonder if
it is not better to spend money on
educating the ignorant than to spend
much more in repairing the damage
they do.

THE PRICE OF RADIUM

Among other things "gone up" since
the war is radium, which formerly
might have been had for the compare
lively trivial sum of $2,150,000 per
ounce. The present figure is about
$3,3SO,OO0
Different nations have already
spent $22,5OO,OOO trying to procure
this priceless substance in large guam
titles, but as yet there are less than
two pounds in the world and the act
ual cost of it's production was over
$1O,OOO,OO0.
