 The corolla is saucer shaped. with ten little pits near the edge, and lightly caught in each of these little pits is the anther at the end of the elastic filament.
 This natural thing seems to grow in an unnatural manner, but do you know of any other plant that actually grows in a distorted or strained posi- tion, or puts it's own self in an un- comfortable and strained position from which it is glad to be released when the first insect comes along and sets it loose?
 The whole mechanism is like a hair trigger. It is so carefully adjusted that even slight jar will sometimes set it loose. Shaking an entire bush releases great numbers of these fila ments, and flop, flop flop, they leap

Goldberg did 72 feet in one minute and four seconds. but es it was not done in a meet it is not recognized officially as q n-w record. The intercollegiate record is 7l feet
 Goldberg is a Phoenix student at Leland Stanford university and re- gently urged The Republican to assist in stimulating aquatic sports in this state. Information reaching the sporting editor from Paio Alto indi- cates that Goldberg is one Of the best plungers on the Pacific Coast Coach Brandsten is said to have urged him to enter the Pacific coast champion . ship meet to be held at Fresno nata- torium, August 16. It is believed by Goldberg's fellow students that his chance for winning first place is bet ter than any other that may enter. Brandsten has said that he should easily take first place.

TRAVELLERS AID AND
 JAIL MATROA PLAN
 PROPOSED BY RED \

To continue the work of the Red driving in Phoenix met by woman able to furnish helpful information was Lhe proposition put up to the board of Supervisors yesterday by a committee comprising Mrs. Sims Ely, Mrs. B. E. Marks, and T. F. Whitney. The com mittee appeared before the board yes- -terday and asked that it bear the bur den of the eNpense that has been car ried by the Red Cross.
 The train-meeting plan may develop into something substantially more, for the suggestion was made that the woman appointed to act in this capac- ity serve also as county matron, one of her chief duties being to have charge of the women prisoners.
 No action has as vet been taken. The committee will. as it's next step. take ihe matter up before the city commis- sion. Later in the week it is under stood q meeting will be held of the city and 'county.and representatives of charitable organizations, active in the movement, will also be heard at this lime. The matter will be discussed from every angle before final dispo- sidon, according to w. K Bowen. chairman of the board of supervisors.
 Mrs. Ely, in discussing the matter, had much to say in the way of good to be derived from the travellers aid plan which has been successfully carried bere. She spoke Of the many health Seekers coming to the valley ard the countless others, men as well as women, to whom bit of information on arrival solves many a problem. Mrs. Ely did not feel that the Red Cross should have 10 supply the city's need which she and other Red Cross work CTS have come to recognize.
 With the right sort Of person ap- pointed to the position. she believes she could carry out the duties of city and county matron, Mrs. Ely declared.

HAIR TRIGGER PLANT

Flop! and away go the little stam- ems of the mountain laurel and throw pollen over the bee that alights upon them. The naturalist sees here one of the most remarkable devices in all nature for compelling an insect to carry pollen. The lover of nature sees in the mountain laurel one of the most beautiful of our common woodland flowers. And before we scarce realize it, we shall again be in the midst of blossoms, says Ed

committee, facing arrest and imprison-
ment is necessary in assertion of
rights of American citizenship to give
the workers of the steel mills meas
ure of justice in the ordering of their
lives.
This is notice to the autocrats of
the steel industry that their autocra-
cy must remove itself from the face
Of the earth, or BE removed by the
sweeping tide of progress that is to-
day leading the people everywhere to
better and higher concepts of life.
No such industrial autocracy can con-
tinue to exist and function in this age
of the worlds development AS po-
litical autocracy has gone, so must
industrial autocracy go. The roseate
path of despots ended in the consum-
ing fire of the war.
There has got to be freedom in the
lives of all men and women. The
right of a few to order and. direct
ard control the lives of the many is
today denied and abrogated. For the
steel workers there can be no free
dom and no democratic voice in the
ordering of their lives until they are
free to organize and deal collectively
with their employers concerning the
wages and conditions and hours of
their work-until they are able thus
TO exercise a compelling voice in Tx
ing the terms and conditions of their
work There is no democracy where
only one voice speaks.

ratized!- American Federationist

A NEW ERA
BY JAMES DUNCAN

President, Granite Cutters Interna-
tional Association of America and
First Vice President, A. F. of L.
Side by side with echoes of the hor-
rors of international war, and which
sorely tried mems and women's minds,
there came in general evidence to pub
lie attention the loyalty and fealty
Of organized labor to the allied and
fome governments. For several de-
cades prior to the rape of Belgium,
by Prussian militarists, the activities
Of organized labor not then being
pitted against an awful international
holocaust, were too often viewed by
the dear public as being unlawful in
reference with alleged sacred prop
erty rights.
To them meeting of organized
workers was dangerous, and strike
was rebellion, while unsympathetic
striking was both conspiracy and Grim
inal. Yet the selfsame public mind
epplauded the action of the United
States government in sympathetically
striking with the Cubans against
Spain, even with the foreknowledge
that the sending of the S. S. Maine
closely into Cuban (Spanish) waters
was but the customary chip on Uncle
Sans shoulder, the knocking off of
which, and which actually took place,
provided the causus belli for perhaps
che greatest sympathetic strike known
in history.
The recent turmoil in Europe gave
the opportunity to the dear public to
Judge more wisely and well of the
great constructive, loyal and humani-
tartan purposes of the American labor
movement. So much so is this fact
that those who desired to meet and
to criticize returned to honor and to
applaud the great purposes for which
the workers of our much loved country
gre organized.
Within the past twelve months my
| own trade association through a con-
structive policy, and by solidarity
among the members thereof has
brought about a condition whereby
wages have increased where the mini
mum wage rate applies one hundred
per cent compared to five years ago.
1t is most fitting that Labor Day,
