blems of that state. Every endeayor has been utilized to have this commit tee representative of all classes and interest-Labor, Capital, native and foreign born men and women, all creeds and Sall parties. Wherever a state has taken legislative action in this movement the Department of h. terior functions through such official body.
 The duties of the state committees are: To convince that state of the need of Americanization; to co-ordin- ate the various agencies at work in this field; to provide within the state a service similar to that which the Americanization Division is providing for the Nation; to go into communi- ties and organize there as the Nation al body has organized in the states to bring harmony among the various organizations at work; to secure the adoption of a common program and to leave in charge of the community problems a committee whose duty it is to see the program carried out.
 The creation of a working organi- zatiOn was an easy accomplishment in comparison with the formulation of 8 plan of action which would meet conditions and problems found in the different sections of our Country, and it was only after exhaustive study of the success attained by the pioneer arms of this service and intensive obsrvation of sectional conditions the following plan was adopted.
 Provisions is made for the division of the work of Americanization into four phases -educational-social- racial information.
 The educational phase is divided in- to three sections, namely non-english speaking. illiteracy and the training of teachers. It is the function of this department to study methods, to pre- Hare material, to install schools and classes, to coordinate the educational facilities of the United States and the State.
 The social phase, the duty of which is to bring about a more sympathetic understanding by the native born and to bring them into a closer and more friendly contact with the foreign born, is divided into the groups: housing and sanitation, community recreation, home work, prevention of imposition, protection of savings and such other local problems as may arise.
 The racial relations service is charged with the making of cympathe tic contacts with the foreign torn through their racial societies, tora!gn language press and racial advisers.

 Occupies New Quarters

I T T
 The Gile. Valley Bank and Trust Company opened it's doors for ibusl- ness Friday of last week in the com modious quarters recently constructed midway between the stores of the companies operating in Morenci.
 The building is the most elaborate ly and completely equipped structure of its character in this section of the state. The newest idea in bank fix lures has been used, low fixture of solid mahogany. with the portion above the counter of plate glass, giv- ing an unobstructed view of the en- tire banking room from any part of the lobby. The furniture of the office and banking rooms is in harmony in every detail.
 In addition to the vaults for the bank records and cash and the deposit boxes for customers, a freproof vault for storage of supplies has been constructed in the basement. An in teresting feature is the electric re- lease for the door leading to the customers room adjacent to the De- posit Box Vault.
 The pleasing effect of the interior has been the cause of no little com ment among those who have visited the banking rooms since the opening day.

Why Colds are Dangerous.


You are often told to beware OF
a cold" but why? We will tell you:
Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers
the vitality and paves the way for
the more serious diseases. People who
contract pneumonia first take cold.
The longer a cold hangs on, the
greater the danger. especially from
the germ diseases, as cold prepares
the system for the reception and
development of the germs Of con-
sumption, diphtheria, scarlet fever
and whooping cough. The quicker you
get rid of your cold, the less the
danger OF contracting one of these
diseases. Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy has a great reputation as cure
for colds and can be depended upon.
II is pleasant to take.
