 So various celebrations were nlanned py committee designated for that purpose. If there w'L5 any doubt m your mind as to the number of persons who were backing you prior to the various celebrations, it was quickly banished by the thousands who turned out to bid you "Godspeed.7
 Approximately ten gigantic enter tainments and celebrations were held in Phoenix during the period of the war. All had features that were dis tinctive but in general they were all similar
 After you had been entertained dur ing the afternoon at some popular di- version, short talks were given by men of prominence. And then you were escorted to the station, where you were to entrain for your respective camps. There the Red Cross supplied you with kits, containing lunches, smokes and other things that you might need while en route.
 And these were 6 few of the things that Phoenicians accomplished that your journey might be the more enjoy able-that there might be a bright side to the dark road to war.

Assistance was 'endered to the non-war construction board. Booklets were issued for ser- 1ice men setting out and interpreting the various laws under which they worked. and the benefits accruing to them from a knowledge of the provi- sions.
 A community chorus was organized, 8 photographic history Of war activi- ies in Arizona prepared, draft boards were assisted in the registrations, as stance was given to the enemy alien property custodian; disloyalty and se- dition were suppressed.
 Aids Reconstruction
 AmericaniZation work was under akcn and carried out.
 Following the armistice the council turned it's activities in the direction of reconstruction work.

 These and many other important activities have been faithfully carried out by the state council of defense, the county councils, and the community councils. Final reports will be made before the council passes out of exist ence by the repeal of the law creating 1t, but its activities for the benefit of the state and the nation in a peried of unnatural strain and under abnormal conditions will be long remembered.

HENRY H. ROTHROCK

Story of the death of Henry Herman Rothrock, a native son of Arizona, is another story of young American hero ism and self-sacrifice. His death was officially reported on October 1T, 1918, ten months after he had landed in France
 According to the official notifica- tion from the war department, Private Rothrocl made the supreme sacrifice in an attempt to save a brother Amer ican from death. A comrade was fly ing aloft when the airplane caught fire. Young Rothrock saw the plane in flames and reached the spot where it struck the ground almost insta1ta.- neously with the machine. He jumped to the aid of his comrade and un- strapped the pilot from his seat. Fling ing the burning man free of the plane Rothrock received the force of the ex- ploding gasoline, which enveloped him in flames and caused his death.
 Private Rothrock was born in Phoe- nix May 14. 1896. He enlisted at Phoe- nix April q. 1917 in the aero service and left Fort Huachuca on his 21st birthday, sailing for France on Decem- her ,. 1917.

It is impossible, in the compass of a short article, to more than briefly men ton a small part of the work accom- plished by the Arizona state council of defense.
 A few things accomplished in the six months following the re- -organiza- ton were the internment' from cir culation of German propaganda books in the public libraries, the conservation of man power and the consequent re- lease for service of many soldiers by the regulation of the hours for gasoline stations, grocery stores and meat mar kets; and the securing of publicity to encourage increased production of all sorts of crops.
 Much Work Done
 Through the efforts of Dwight B. Heard and C. E. Addams the council accomplished much toward bringing to head the matter of the Florence diversion dam.
 Cooperation with the biological sur vey helped in the work Of ridding the state of rodents and predatory animals. 4 speakers bureau was organized to furnish speakers on patriotic subjects for all sorts of gatherings all over the state, speaking in both English and Spanish
 Complaints of rent profiteering were cared for by special conciIiation com mittee in so satisfactory a manner that it was never necessary to resort to publicity.
 But it was in the ma gnificent work done by the council in cooperation with the state health department in the suppression of the influenza epidemic and the education of the citizeury in preventative measures that the coun- cil showed some of it's best results

Campaign To Garry Relief To Near East Very Close To
 Quota In Maricopa County

Maricopa county and Arizona are seemingly going to go lover the top" in the financial campaign for Relief in the Near East, the last of the many war relief campaigns conducted in this community. Although still several thousands Of dollars short of succuss, tho campaign is progressing in a satis- factorily manner. according to those directing the work in Arizona and the various communities.
 This movement includes relief for A1Tuenians, Syrians ana Jews-in fact, all peoples who suffered ravages dur ing the war at the hands of Turkey. Arizona's allotment in this campaign is $50, ,0G0 and Maricopa county's share of the total is $3G,0o0. Approximately $27, ,000 has already been raised in this county and in the state, the total is about $102,000. The campaign will not officially be closed until May 30.
 Rallied to Support As in all previous war undertakings. the people of this county and state have rallied in support. Relief work in the near East is being carried on in a gigantic scale and thees terror stricken peoples have probably suffered the greatest ravages of the entire war. Directors of the campaign in this community feel certain that Arizona will not fail to over-subscribe it's al lotment It has always done so in previous relief campaigns. they argue, and it will do so again.
 Campaign work is steadily going for ward and the various county organiza- tions are pushing the work in splendid fashion.

THE WATCH ON THE RHINE

THE WATCH ON THE RHINE From out the old world, stif1ed, Flows the blood of every land, Across a wide expanSe Of sea To Freedoms golden strand; Imhihing there the living fire That makes a man a man: Back on itself, this stream has flown Within the thousands of khaki clad From the Land of Libery; This blood runs in all our veins, The blood of the Old Worlds tide, And this conquering stream Brings the New Worlds dream Of all Nations purified. Within the valley of the Rhine This tide today you'n see;
 We, came to you as soldiers bold To exact the penalty Of the pound of flesh and blood as well
 For the sins that were heaped so free On nations weak and nations strong, And all humanity:
 While thus we play the soldier We look into your shrines, Into hooks and crooks and crannies, Into all your precious mines. And we'll try to read the secrets Of your valleys, hills and dells, And revel with the Muses
 In the stories that they tell
 We would see all of your castles Upon your mountains high,
 The ruins of all your fastnesses Between the earth and SKY.
 Up in among the rocks and crags Where knights and ladies, fair. Where kings and emperors, and gods Were want 10 tarry there:
 We wish to tell these stories
 IS in golden days of yore
 They were sung by gods and goddesses. And the Muses they adore.
