SERMON ON PRAYER
ATTRACTS CITIZENS

Evangelist Owen last night spoke to
the largest and most interested crowd
on the subject of Prayer" at the First
Methodist Episcopal church. He said
in part:
Nowhere in Gods book have we
real formal definition of PRAYER. If
were to be asked to give a reason I
should say, we would be spending too
much time trying to determine which
would be the correct attitude in which
10 pray, or how long and at what time
WIS should pray. We would thereby
lose the real meaning of prayer. God
commands us that we should make
known our wishes to Him. We should
therefore wait in prayer. We should
pray before we speak to our friends of
christ; we should pray before we sing
the gospel songs. It seems as though
nowadays We doubt the efficacy of
prayer. We are willing to say there is
certain psychological effect created
py prayer, but the majority of people
pray with no great faith that PRAYER

MURAL ARTIST HERE

Arizona is entertaining one of the
most distinguished mural painters of
New York City, Howard Mccormick
according to State Historian ]. H. Nc
Clintock who extended the courtesies
of his office yesterday to the MeCor

the important steps in the campaign

ALL WISHING MILK
MAY SEE MRS. GOAT

Everybody in Phoenix desiring milk
will have to annex nanny goat pretty
soon, keep 1t in the back yard, feed
it something cheap, and draw upon it
twice daily. according to State Veter
marian r. J. Hight, who says that the
era of COW milk here is drawing to
an untimely end. He believes the goat
recourse is the only way. unless one
would pay very high prices for canned
or fresh" supplies brought from a
distance.
DR.. Hight deplores the present ten
dency of the Salt River valley farmers
to discontinue the growing of stock
feed in order to have more acreage for
cotton, as he foresees a sure famine
of milk in the near future.
If the public will just take to keep
ing goats. he says, the coming milk
famine will be averted and the public
really will be better off.

PRIVATE R0bARTS
 KILLED IN ACTION
Was Formerly Member of Reportorial Staff of the
 Times Farmer. .

Private Clifford W. Robarts, well known newspaper man of this city, gave his life for the glory and hon. or of America on October 12, the opening day of the terrific American onslaught through the forests be- yond Nerdun. The soldier was killed when he was struck by a shell while waiting for stretcher bearers on the field of the Argonne to take him to a dressing station. Word of his death reached his parents, MT. and Mrs. Watson Robarts of Hawthorne street, yesterday.
 He entered the service of Uncle Sam on May 1 of last year and embarked with the 29th division from Camp Stuart, Newport News, a month later, for France. His training in France was almost as brief, as the call for men was very insistent, and he entered the line in August, serv- ing a continuous period of 20 days | in the trenches. Private RobartE was formerly of the Times-F'armel reportorial staff, covering city hall and later city editor of the Tele 1 gram.

FURRY OVER SCHOOL BILL
Supposed Bill Has Been Referred To As Monism
 Code.

Hartford, Conn.,. Jan. 2S.---The furry in legislative circles today was over 8 report that new code for adminis- tratfon of the schools of the state had been introduced. This supposed bill has been referred to as the Morrison code," apparently because the assist ant secretary of the state board of education, MT. Morrison, had made references in recent addresses to an effort to secure uniformity in school conduct by the state board. The bill has not yet been offered. Senator Hazen, chairman of the committee on education, stated today that there was wrong impression existing over a bill which the state board would sub- init, and while it was on it's way to l the general assembly, had been de- i layed for some reason. He said that i the bill did not attempt to establish i q Morrison code" It would chiefly ; aim at removing anlhiguities in school administration in towns which are un- i der direction of the state board. It would bring all such schools under i one law, whereas now some schools
 are run under one law and some un-
 der another. It would give the state | board more power to raise school
 standards lboth in courses and in the teachers. Towns would still retain
 control over their school property and
 be required to furnish school houses. There have been numerous petitions | of remonstrance against a code bill, teachers in Orange, Ansonia and Seymour sending in theirs today.
 Both branches of the general assem-
 hiy were in session but a few min
 utes. George F. Fellows was appoint ed for a one-year term as commis-
 sioner of New London county, to fl!
 a vacancy, and Charles H. Smith, re
 elected for a full term.

It is also of vital interest to Switzerland to ob- , tain the right of passage over rail- roads to the sea and through European states eastward.

Sidney Garrison Explains
 Why He Climbed 8 Strange Fire Escape.

Sidney Garrison, 25, of 2353 Fair field avenue, climbs porches, rides a bicycle, and does all kinds of stunts, when he is under the influence of liquor, according to the story he told Judge Frederic A. Bartlett in city court this morning.
 Garrison was arrested by Patrol man Edward Corcoran, last night, after he had been seen by >- tenants climbing up the fire escape of a three family house, next to the Park thea tre on Main street. The court must have believed his story as he was given suspended sentence of 30 days.
 Garrison is said to have reached the scene of his operations on a bicycle, on being discovered he ran away, leaving the machine. Patrol man Corcoran watched the bicycle and in about & half hour Garrison returned for it.
 Garrison told the court that he might have been climbing up the fire escape as he had been drinking, and that he did funny things at suct times he stated that he did not re. member being in the house. How. CT, cap which was picked up in tFt hallway, was identified by Garrison as being his cap.

 dark as to the mayors plans. King has lost hls power in Fairfield coun- ty to some extent in the past few months and the death of Theodore Roosevelt was a sad blow to his am bitions. There are those who claim that when T. R. died his policies liv- ed after him, and that John T. King is playing possum in the hope of gaining aid in pushing the candidate of the remainder of the Roosevelt faction for president in 1920.
 Others believe that John T. Kings political star has set and that it will only be matter of months before he will only be a memory. However the insiders take the view that MT King is like the story of the Irish mans flea, likely to bob up and come on" top at any time. They believe that 1t will be a long while before John Henry Roraback, Clifford B Wilson or anyone else will be able tc down John T. King.
