The Last Word

While jogging into town behind the old mare the other morning, We picked ID a couple of lively pickanin nies and fetched them to the skuie haouse. on the way, one of them, in response uo our casual inquiry hy way of making conversation, told Us the fable of the cat and the fox Seems lak Brer FoX. meeting Sister Cat in de forest "Once 'pOn tahm, dcne staht kiddin de cat bout not be ing able to do us many tricks as he could While he was showing of dar come from way off in de dis tance de soun' of huntin' dogs. 'Twahnt no tahm bio de nouns conn crashin' thoo de brush. Sister Cat done pull on de trick O shinnin' up d

 And somehow. it seemed that the old mare went a little too fast over that particular stretch of the road on that particular morning. often you may have seen school announcements to the effect thaU
 'business' English or vocational English will be taught. Personally. we have been at a loss to know juse what species of English these critters are.

ARIZONA BOYS TO BE
 WELL REPRESENTED
 IN AMERICAN LEGION
Capt. Cassidy Bisbee Envoy to St. Louis Meet; Seven
 Arizona Delegates

Representing the Warren district boys in the American Legion, Veter- ans of the Great War, Capt. M. J. Cassidy leaves tonight for St. Louis to attend the first convention of the or ganization to be held in St. Lou;s, May 8, and 10.
 Other Arizona delegates, of which there are seven, composed of three of ficers and four enlisted men, include Col. J. c. Greenway or Warren, who is new in New York city but who will be present when the convention meets; Capt. Edward Le Baron of Mesa, Alexander Baker and Fred Townsend of Phoenix, and representa- tives from Flagstaff and Tucson.
 The purpose of the St. Louis caucus is to form a preliminary organization for a convention which will be held in Chicago on November Il, the anniver- sary of the signing of the armistice, at which permanent organization will be effected. The American Legion is being organized upon patriotic lines and the delegates from the various sections are defraying their own ex- penses to the St. Louis meeting.
 Primarily the organization is for purposes of free expression from the nations heroes on what they believe best and vital for the future of the na- tion, and the Legion is expected to be bulwark of national strength during the reconstruction period. One of the purposes it will serve is as a counter actant to the bolsheviki spirit appear ing spasmodically in different sections of the country.
 A tentative branch of the Legion has already been formed in this dis trict with a large membership ot former service men who have re- turned. rf
 Lieut.. Col Theodore, jr., son of the late Colonel Roosevelt, has been ac- tive in the construction of the organ ization which has developed into a national party composed of sailors, soldiers, marines, and all other ac- tive service men in either the army or navy. When the preliminary or ganization has been perfected at St. Louis the temporary committee un- der Lieut.. Col Roosevelt will cease to exist as such.
 Delegates from all parts of the coun- try will be present at the opening of the convention which promises to de velop into one of the strongest or ganizations ever formed in Amrica. Captain Cassidy will return to Bis bee as soon as the convention ad- journs.

When is a flag not a flag, is the puzzling question which the En- igma Editor of the Review has been called on to solve. "A &B" have requested the answer to the problem. Following is the man. ner in which they put the ques- tion:
 "Sirs, will you kindly decide an argument which unless we re- ceive the assistance of a referee will remain permanently unde- cided. The argument concerns the identity of a certain piece or pieces of what may be bunting, and which flies from a patriots flagstaff less than 100 feet in a northwesterly direction from the home of "The Review"

 tie was. on reconnaissance tour but in front Of the American lines at Vary on the Argonne front with Lieut.. ueorge Spurbeck when the drive start GU and the soldiers of his regiment came over the top. They saw the men coming, found a German machine gun, mounted It on the motorcycle and Joln- ed the advance playing the German lines with the fire as they went.
 The day previous to the drive, Car ter had been wounded and lost his company. He found an old motorcycle along the road, repaired it and at tempted to catch up with his mates.
 Night overlook him and he camped in a protective clump of bushes on the roadside.
 At about 2 o'clock the next morning he was stunned by the explosion oI a great 11-inch howitzer which pokeo it's nose out of the foliage just over hIs head. When he came to he found his motorcycle had been blown sev' eral feet to the middle of the road but was otherwise unharmed.
 He rode the motorcycle from this time until the end of the war covering the greater portion of France and Belgium, and fought with it on three fronts, Saint Mihlel, Argonne and the -Ourdaunord in Belgium. The body oi the machine had been riddled with bullets, and no two pieces of the con traption were the original parts. A large crowbar served to connect the side car with the motorcycle.
 He made an attempt to bring Il home with him but the army ruling would not permit him to do SO.
 The corporal also tells the following story about an old French clock: 'iAl Eseneyouix on the Saint Miliel front we found an old church, the steepie of which stood about 200 feet hlgh At the top of this tower was massive clock which the natives said had noi run for over 70 years.

Al of the bells started dangling and the populace of the town turned out tt see what was wrong. 1 regulated It set the hands in the four faces to the correct time and according to the lasi I heard of it, the old clock is still go ing.

SAN JUAN, May 3.-Seaplanes of the American marines are rapidly clearing San Domingo jungles of their bad men. The roar and sweep of the big birds is frightening them into the villages to face arrest rather than brave an attack from the air. Stories go about the island that these planes sweep through the shacks of the band it's as though they were piles of hay and scatter them broadcast. Anyhow they're helping the marines to clean up the island.

And here on the ground
The mighty armies meet.
The awful tumult i'll the woods,
And the quiet star above.
The lands ablazc with glare Of death,
Three thousand gas shells burst their breath
Where four platoons are lying
And some Of them are dying.
And yet-that evening s;ar,
God! how ii mocks!
BY contrast, calm and far
Though earth and mountain rocks
SO unperturbed and bright,
Gazing through the night
On insgnifcanee!
