JUDGE IMPOSES A
 SENSIBLE SENTENCE

Judge Stanford, of the superior court ct Phoenix, passed sentence on boy who pleaded guilty of passing fraudulent check.
 The judge did not send the lad to the reformatory. He is trying somc- thing different. He sentenced the boy for five years, as the law provides. but he suspended execution of the sen tence under the following conditions: The boy is to be placed under the care of man who will help him find suitable employment; the youth must work steadily and comply with all the regulations made by his guardian; the boy is to open bank account and he must appear in court to show his bank book and how the account is get ting along. At the end of five years the youth may draw on the accumu- lated funds if it is thought necessary.
 In fact, the judge wants to teach the boy thrift and his idea is a good one. The boy. may develop into a good man and make a success in life. Many boys do things when they are at certain age that they would not think of doing in later life. The habit of saving is a good one and this lad will live no doubt to thank the judge for giving him such practical way of making something of himself.- Douglas Dispatch.

ENCOURAGING THE HORSE

Twice as the cab slowly wended it's way up the steep hill the door opened and slammed. At first the man inside paid little heed, but the third time he demanded to know why he should be disturbed in this fashion.
 "Hush!" cautioned the driver. Don't spake so loud. He'll overhear us."
 Who'll overhear us?"
 "The horse. Spake low. Shure O'im desavin' the creatur. Every time e 'ears the door close e thinks some- body is gettin' down to walk up the hill. and that sort of chirks i'm up a bit"

THE GREAT ADVENTURE

Something glittered in the mud of the crowded street.
 It was a pin.
 "See a pin and pick it up, and all day long you'll have good luck," he muttered as he bent down to recover the pin. He had learned the good old proverb when quite child.
 As he bent down to recover the pin his hat fell off and rolled under cab wheel. His eyeglasses also fell and broke into 73 pieces. A bus caught him on one side and a bakers van on the other, the two nearly squeezing the life out of him. He made dash for the pavement and upset cyclist.
 It was great adventure, but he had got the pin.

OLD TRAILS ROUTE MOST
 POPULAR THIS YEAR

That the National Old Trails high way (Santa Fe TraiD is one of the most popular transcontinental routes across the country, is borne out by statistics recently compiled by the Automobile Club of Southern Cali fornia, with headquarters in Les An geles. These statistics show that to date, this year, approximately 1000 machines have used the Santa Fe Trail between Kansas City and Los Angeles, and according to present in- dications, the count will reach 10000 by the close of the year. An average of 75 cars a day are now entering California at Needles.
