Only Frames Were Burned.

Questioned as to the reported burning
Of airplanes in France after the armis-
tice, Col. Patrick said this was justifi-
able. The planes burned were no longer
ser viceable, and after being stripped OF
their engines and all metal parts the
wings and fuselage were destroyed be-
cause they were coneidered useless, he
said. 1t would have been a poor invest
ment to ship them back to America, he
claimed.
Col. Patrick denied the assertion of
Capt Eddie Rickenbacker In his book,
which calls the De Haviland planes

mo more of these planes crashed
than any other kind. but of course avia-
tors differ over the qualities Of the va

Col. Patrick said America should have
had 2,720 planes in France when the

size of the army, Even this, he said

strength for a force about 500, 900 larger

any increased wage demands the pro-
posed board might allow the workers

Commerce Commission" he said. THESE
, increases would have to be accepted by
the commission, and there would be but
| one couEse left to II and that would be

| that the commission would be a mere

II was pointed out that no course
would be open to the commission TO in
vestigate the injustice such increases
might cause, but that all 1t could do
would be to boost rates until the In.
creased wage bill was met.
But the President already has au-
thority, at least until the Cummins bill
Is passed. TO grant any increased wages
he may deem necessary and raise rates

DOMESTIC ART DEPARTMENT
 AT STATE FAIR IS TO SET
 A NEW STANDARD THIS YEAR

With reconstruction work as one of it's leading features, the domestic art department of the Arizona state fair will be set a new standard this year, according to those familiar with the plans of Mrs. W. w. McNeff, who is superintendent of the department.
 While none of the departments of work previously exhibited will be neg lected, the reconstruction garments, for their very nature. will take a predomi- nant place among the displays in the section which is of particular interest to women.
 The thrift and economy lessons learned during the war will be given expression in made over garments for the boy and girl For instance some mother will be awarded a prize for the suit made for her son out of his dads last seasons suit, while there will be awards for the best girls dress made from discarded garment. The ex- hibit is not to be devoted solely to made over garments for the kiddies but there will also be displayed articles of all de- scriptions reconstructed from worn or discarded materials.
 Although it is not specifically men, toned along with the reconstruction WOIh, OHe tHdI VIII Dt CloSely Teidttu will be the display of house dresses confined to a certain small sum.
 These interesting exhibits and many more equally interesting have been worked out by Mrs. McNeff, who re- gently returned from Colorado where she passed the summer in earnest study of fairs and the features that were be- ing presented in the particular section of which she is chairman. Although this is the first time she has been con- nected with the domestic art depart ment, Mrs. McNeff is not new in fair activities having served as superin- tendent of the educational department

FORTUNE IN JUNK FROM BATTLEFIELD
 LIES IN ARSENAL

An immense mass Of surplus and obsolete army stores, the salvage of the war from land and sea, is at present on view at the Royal Arsenal, Wool w1ch, Eng, where from time to time sales are being held by direction of the disposal board of the Ministry of Munitions. Most of it is what the army calls junk" but that there are fortunes in it-and doubtless fortunes stlll to be made out of it-may be gathered from the fact that the last few sales have averaged turnover of from s15,OOO (s75,OOO) to a2OOOO | t$100,000).
 Even the flotsam and jetsam of war can be very largely turned to further use and profit. There is, for instance, writes representative of "The Daily l Telegraph who visited Woolwich re- gently under official auspices, a little item of 1000 tons of empty brass shell l cases 90 per cent of which are Ger man.
 Needless to say to what servica ble purposes manufacturers will be able to put them. So, too, with vast stores of our own ammunition cases, from lS-inch shells to rifle cartridges There is ready sale for all brass copper and steel, as may be illustrated by such items as copper driving banas which fetch between ESQ (s4O0), and E90 (S45O a ton. Old blankets and felt of all kinds by the hundreds of tons will largely find a way to Dews- bury to be manufactured into standard clothes.
 Enormous stacks of old leather will ! be put to some of the vast variety of uses in which leather plays a part in- cluding the making of toys Aluminium in almost any quantity will once more provide us with kitchen utensils, let us hope while army rubber sheets and capes by the tens of thousands re- quire little more than renovation in some case to be given a new lease of usefulness in more ways than one. The same thing may be said of prodisious quantities of army tentage.
 The following list gives rough, but by no means complete, idea of what may be bought at Woolwich at the present time under the official desig- nations of "unserviceable and obsolete stores"
 Aluminium, cupre- nickel, brass and copper, iron least, wrought), and steel scrap, prosphmanganese bronze, mix ed and white metals, lead and anti mony, zinc, electric fittings, accountre- ments, textiles, canvas, carboys, drums cotton, ebonite, jute (old), leather (old), mats, trench periscopes, rubber (var- ipus), water bottles, bedsteads, motor tires, tentage, racks and rope, ground sheets, webbing. wheels. telephone dield scraps), old rifle sights, band rollers, bicycles (of sorts).
 Incidentally, our representative spot ted big collection of old army bugles How much do these fetch?" he asked Captain Watson, one of the army sal wage officers at Woolwich.

public schools. One mother saving, Such a waster of time to take music Tn the public school. Johnny hasn't a particle of music in his soul and the tune might be better spent on his pen tnanshlp," and the other woman as if 10 conclude an indisputable fact said, And who ever heard of a musician being turned out of the schools" and l agree perfectly, who ever did, who ever heard of a grade or even high school sending forth a grammarian or mathematician?
 As fundamental requirement.. music occupies the same place and serves the same general purpose as any other factor in a public school edu- cation.
 And after all for what purpose is an education? Is it not that we may the better meet the relations in life and IS there any relation more important than the relation to oneself Surely the most dreadful thing, in the last analysis, one can be doomed to is an empty personality and certainly in the years to come Johnny's knowledge of the classics in music will contribute more to his happiness than his pen manship.
 And while the grade and high schools do not pretend to send out specialists In any line they do aim to furnish an all-round development upon which higher education may be built and saH he music in the schools should aint the child with the best musi-
 literature until with the develop nfcnt through the grades and high ! hnx et,o to appreciate the classics in music quite as much os in literature and even if the child can neither sing noI play a note.s In every amusement hal and practically every home nowadays there is musical device of some kin6 and 1 am sure we shall all hail the daN that we can pass said places and heai music worth while, instead of the aw- full travesties we do hear and that day will come about largely through theil training in the public school.
 1 think music contributes more tC good citizenship than any other study perhaps.
 Music and good order go together In it's very essence it makes for things which are uplifting. It is said that singing nation is not likely to be anarchistic and when we realize that 1t has only been in the last twenty five years that music has made any strides in public education, we may hope, am sure, for more law and order from this music trained generation than the present. Russia has made great progress in her music in the past few years, even in these troublous times and may we not hope that this will be a factor in the education ot their youth that will be a strong in- fluence toward law and order. Frances Elliott Clark says in the General Federation Magazine for Sep tember that music should be taught ir every high school on exactly the same

basis as language or science and the same credits given for equal work Orchestras and bands should be or ganiZed in every school and the instru- ments furnished as are the tools for manual training and agree with her.
 Bovee says, you know, that music is the fourth great material want of our nature-first food, then raiment, then shelter, then music. That being the case am sure we can find much com fort in the thought that at least one material necessity has not been af- fected by the H. c of L.
