FRATERNAL TIES AND
 REVELRY GO HAND IN HAND
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

The founding Of Jerome Lodge No. ,361 of the Benevolent and Protec- i've Order of Elks on Saturday night eclipsed any similar event ever giv-
 in this section of Arizona. The
 ecret features were attended with
 olemnity and good cheer, while the 'estive scene was exceptional, over 800 merrymakers being present at the ball.
 The ceremonies of inducting the new lodge were gracefully and cap, lbly presided over by Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler A. J. Herndon, and heartily cooperating with him were over 200 of the brethren.
 The town was wholly given over
 70 this notable occasion and 1t was made maelstrom of the liveliest re-
 elry. A banquet arranged by wives # E1lls and the dispensing of the dain- liquid refreshments, the fine spiri; # hospitality % openly manifested. md the cheerful environment of Elk lom, will be cherished ill memory by Ill. The dance never had a parallel Il the northern part of the state, over 800 tripping the light fantastic. Two floors were necessary, and only the dawn of the sacred Eastern morn ,alled all away from such a realm of pleasure.
 At the conclusion of the ritual cere- monies, Mir. Herndon was presented with a handsome travelling bag and n harmony with the spirit of the oc- casion it was made from the hide of the Elk which is typical of the order. The new lodge begins its career with the following officers: Frank E Smith, Exalted Ruler; C. M. COnnor, Esteemed Leading Knight; w. B. Fou1ia, Esteemed Loyal Knight; J. 1 w. Brown, Esteemed Lecturing Knight; A. E. Weidman, Secretary; Harry Parker, Treasurer; C. w. Ben nett, Tyler: C. M. Hoffman, William NJ. Holiday, Charles Brannen, Trustees.
 The floral donation were valued at over $500 and one piece in particular presented to Mir. Herndon, of Ameri- | >an Beauty Roses, cost at least $50. |

COPPER OUTFITS MUST PREVENT
 IDLENESS
(From Saturdays Daily)

Without doubt many Ot the cop per rrolucers in the country would make money by dosing down; this, however. would cause great hardship among the men who have been in their employ for a long time, who nave been encouraged to build their owr. homes, and would throw a large number Of men out O. e,: ?loyment, thus greatly disturbing the in lustrial situation of the country at large
 With the exception of the mines of Jerome, which were closed on ac- count of a strike, and which have not reopened, and the Shannon Copper Co. which went out of business, the mines of Arizona have not closed, and have not disturbed the labor sit nation to any extent. They have had to curtail production, as practically ro copper is being sold, and conse- quenrlv to cut down their working force. but in doing this, have laid off practically all single men.
 With the curtailed production, it has not been possible to keep on pro auction all of the men who have been in their employ sufficient time to have established their homes in the community, and in some cases, as that Of the Copper Queen, develop ment work is being done to give these men employment, which, from a financial and economic point of view. is not justified under the pres ent conditions.
 The companies all over the coun- try have agreed to curtail production in order that the world surplus may not become top heavy, and to allow for the demand to catch up to the supply. The real seriousness of the large surplus stock of copper is in the fact that for the most part it was produced on the maximum basis of cost. with the expectation of real izing % cents per pound.
 How long an organization can keep men employed upon development work and other operations merely for the purpose Of giving employment to old employees and returning sol diers, is problematical; in some cases operations are being maintained where the cost Of producing the cop per is greater than the present sell ing price.
 The faith of the Arizona producers in the future copper market, upon which so much of the prosperity Ot Arizona depends, is clearly shown by their attitude in preventing. in SO far as it is possible, unemployment

The one big idea is that you, as a parent, should do as much to protect your neigh bors' children as you would expect them to do to protect yours. To do this is simply giving expression to what may well be called a community conscience, which prompts us to do to the best of our ability and as best we know, the things that make for the comfort and safety of all.-From Bulletin, Arizona Board of Health.

TO BE WELL AND STRONG
Treat the Body Reasonably. Keep Busy But Avoid, Worry
 and Strain.

Activity is a law of growth and ] life If you do not use your muscle ! 1t will never grow strong. It will wither and shrink. You remember that to him that useth what he hath, more shall be given; but he that burieth what he hath, carefully pre- serving it in a napkin, even that which he seemeth to have shall be taken from him Therefore work, and work with your full strength of body and mind.
 That does not mean that you must work all the time That is not work ing with your full strength. You must let the fire under the boiler die down occasionally to clear out the clinkers if you would get the full amount of neat out of the coal. You must treat your body for the same reason. Every movement of muscle, every thought of your brain burns up some material. and it produces some waste which we may call ashes. The ashes can not be cleared out as fast as they are produced, and the result is a condition we call fatigue, and 1t reduces strength and speed of action both of muscle and brain, It also re- duces the quality of mental products.
 Don't bite off more than you can chew! Don't undertake more than you can do. If the work is put before you, do what you can and do it well. Don't promise to get off ten jobs when you know that the capacity of | your shop is only eight. Do first that which is most important Then if something unexpected happens, some thing which is beyond your control, just charge the unaccomplished work up against that uncomfortable cause.
 Never worry. Worry never does any good. It IS the grains of emery which the evil one puts into your machine. It wears out the bearings, cuts the shafting, and sooner or later it causes a break which puts your machine in the junk pile.
 The effect of worry IS not all on the mind Prof. Cannon of Harvard University has shown by a long series of experiments that one effect of worry IS to stop digestion. He found that worry and other emotions divert blood from the digestive tract. If food in the stomach does not digest it ferments and putrihes by the aid of the bacteria which it finds lying around there looking for a chance to do mischief. The product of this fer mentation or putrefaction is poison ous to the body. To get rid of it the eliminating organs must be over worked, for they must get rid of these poisons in addition to cleaning out the ashes left from work. Some times we call these poisons pto- maines. The cause is not. always due to eating spoiled food. If one man only at the dinner table gets ptomaine poisoning the chances are ten to one that he had the diabolical germs in his own system, and that his regular policeman had gone to sleep. One of the most potent soporiics for orr policemen is fatigue, and fa- tigue always trails after worry

a German surgeon cut a Missourian's $
leg half of and quit because the vic
tim screamed with pain was told
here today by Capt w. s. Stephen
son. VI. G, ID. +. C, and wearer Of

Capt. Stephenson went to France
three years ago, downed IS German
airplanes and was captured when a
bullet sent him down behind the
German lines.
There was one orderly TO look
after the whole 200 prisoners" said
Capt Stephenson. "If we called for
water he would bring II to us. But
if II was a Yankee he would take II
away and let him suffer.
There was one surgeon at the
base hospital to operate on all the
prisoners. He used no anaesthetic
whatever. There was one tall Mis-
sourian His leg was broken. He
knew they would cut Il off The
knife was the only instrument the
surgeon used. There was no sern-
blance Of sterilizing the knife. When
one operation was over IL was laid
on a table. dripping with blood, un-
til the next victim came.
That Missourian asked me TO go
with him 10 the operating tent

face the surgeon threw me down and
took the fellow out. In the tent
next door I could hear him calling
to his mother as the surgeon cut
into his leg. Pretty soon he was
brought back-his leg half off. APP

ent at his noise and decided not to
finish the operation. That poor fell

France Against Attack.
BY j. W. IT. MASON.

hg ulteu AEeSS-
NEW YORK. Feb. l3.-PrOpOsals
before the peace conference for
making Germany permanently inn
potent will not give France an ade-
quate substitute for the refusal Of
the other democratic nations TO go
10 war on Frances behalf any time
France is threatened.
The world has never found a way
10 make a nation or millions harm
less after a great war except by ex-
termination. Germany cannot be eX-
terminated. and therefore the prob
lem OF guaranteeing France perma-
nent immunity from a German
threat is insoluble.
The suggestion that Germany be
compelled TO disarm except for a
small police army and that her mu-
niiOns plants DE permitted TO pro-
duce only a small quantity OF war
material can be made effective il the
peace congress 50 desires. But the
men thus forcibly released from the
German army and the non-produc-
tive war factories will find employ
ment in wealth producing enter
prises While other nations expend
their taxes on the maintenance of
large armies and navies Germany
will have no such domestic bill TO
pay. AT the same time no consider
able part OF the German people will
idle away their time on military
duty.
Part OF the extra wealth which
Germany can thus produce will go
10 the allies in the form OF indem-
mites. But Germany will not have
20 pay indemnities forever. IN the
end the forcement OF practical dis
armament upon Germany. while the
other nations maintain large defen-
sive forces cannot help but increase
Germany's material prosperity. with
this will come a general recovery OF
the national strength.

SAN ANTONIO. Texas. Feb. ia
In an interview given at the City of
Mexico. Pres't Carranza dictated the
following message to the people of
the United States:
My message to the people of the
United States" said Pres't Carranza,
"is:-The people of Mexico are cor
dial toward the people OF the United
States. but the policy of the foreign
interests. which at times threatens
the interest of the Mexican people.
has created a sentiment of distrust
for which the Mexican people can
not be blamed. On the other hand.
the American people, misled by
these same interests. think the Mex
lean people unfriendly and this poll
icy followed by the foreign interests
and spread throughout the country
in their press. is responsible for this
distrust and lack of cordial under
standing between the two peoples. :"
Will Pay Interest On Debt.
Pres't Carranza said that shortly
Mexico. in all probability. will begin
paying, in part, the interest on her
foreign Indebtedness. This includes
the interest on the railroads that are
steadily being put in better shape.
The revenues of the country are
now on such a scale that the neces-
sarily big budget is soon TO be met
and the prospects are for a sur
plus.
II am going TO devote the remain
der of my administration TO the con-
version OF our foreign financial OBJ
legations" said Carranza.
The president stated that Mexico
is at peace, that the occasional out
breaks OF lawlessness in isolated sec
tions are not military problems but
are due 70 the perniciOus activity of
interests seeking Intervention. Along
this line he spoke with emphasis
showing depth OF resentment
against outside interference in Mex
ico's political matters.
