EUROPEANS PLEADING
FOR THEIR CHILDREN
Elder Generation Sacrifices Sell
That Hope of Future May
Receive Means of Life.

The one optimistic note in the des-
Dprate need prevailing through the war;
torn areas of eastern Europe is the ex-
trsOrdinary and touching faith of the
peOpIe in the children. The elder gen.
pHtion has put all its hope and trust
IN the future of the generation now in
its early years. In fact, in many in
stances it is deliberately sacrificing IL
self for the children, the Europe Of to-
morrow.
In the war-ravaged districts supplies
necessary for maintenance of insti-
tutions are lacking, but it has been
noted that always the request for out
side aid emphasizes the needs of the
ORDINANCES. How marked is this in
clination was indicated by the fact
that one district of Poland the au-
thorities, appealing to an American re
lief organization for assistance, asked
assistance for only one military hos
pital, four general hospitals and TWEEN
ty orphanages.
The appeal has reached America
with the result that because they know
that literally millions of European chill
dren face starvation and death from
disease unless the aid that only this
country can give is forthcoming, eight
great American relief agencies have
banded together under the nume OF. the.
European Relief Council to raise S33.-
900, 900 needed to tide the baby genera
ition of Europe over possibly the most
critical winter it has yet faced. These
are the American Relief Administration,
the American Red Cross, the American
Friends Service Committee (Qhakers)
the Jewish Joint Distribution Commit
tee, the Federal Council of Churches
of Christ in America, the Knights OF
Columbus, the Y. NJ. G. A. and the 7.

RE ET1RES FROM RAGE FOR
 SCHOOL OFF| |CE
Leaves Clear Field to Miss Elsie Toles for Republi- can Nomination for School Superintendent

Linwood $. Pratt, candidate fos state superintendent of public instruction has withdrawn in favor of Miss Elsie Toles for the Republican nomination, according to an announcement 1ssueo at state Republican headquarters last night This is regarded as the most gallant action that has occurred in the present campaign.
 Pratt started his campaign more than a year ago. when as a teacher Of one of the rural schools of Maricopa county, he became convinced that the 5000 children of the rural schools of the state were not getting as good an education as those who lived in the cities. He became widely known in Maricopa county for his fight in be- half of the country schools and later equally liked in Navajo county, where he was principal last year al Lake, side
 Professor Pratt's action leaves Miss Toles an open field for the nomination. On learning of this development last night, many prominent Republicans of Phoenix said that they' would try to induce Pratt to run for county super intendent of schools of Maricopa coun- ty. for which office there are no Re- publican candidates.
 J. A. Moore, a Republican, was elected to this latter office two years ago. but died shortly after taking of flee. and the vacancy was Illled py the appointment of A. L. Jones, Demo- crat. It is thought that Mr.. Pratt. if induced to run, can be nominated by friends writing in his name on the Re publican primary ticket.
 Urges Vote for Late Opponent
 Pratt, in withdrawing from the race, urges that his friends vote for Miss Toles, even though it will be impossible to have his name removed from the primary ballot. Pratt's resignation of candidacy is in the form of letter to Andrew Baumert, Jr. secretary of the Republican state committee, and reads as follows
 My Dear Mir. Baumert:
 T, think that 1 ought to withdrav " my candidacy for the Republican nom ination for state superintendent ol schools. Here are some of the reasons
 The Republican party is responsible for woman's suffrage. For 40 years or more. the best Republican leadership has been appreciating and then pro claiming the need of woman's mino and heart and soul in meeting ane solving the social and economic prob lems that our changing civilization ha: been constantly bringing to the front

 Supports Wonan's Candidacy
 The candidacy or Miss Toles is the first response in Arizona of this Re publican demand for a competent woman's service in hish state office. believe that 1t is my duty to support that candidacy and rot 70 oppose it.
 We have been preaching the de sirability of a womans candidacy for two generations. The first time that a woman becomes candidate for a state office in my party in this state, am going to antagonize ite Not l.
 -Four years ago Miss C. Louise Boehringer of Yuma was candidate before the Democratic primary for nomination for this same ottlce or state Superintendent of public instruc- ton. Miss Boehringer is a cultured and refined woman. trained and eX- perienced teacher. known by every school man in the state to be woman of high ideals and lofty vision and proved administrative capacity. who was just finishing four years of bril- liant success as county superintendent of Yuma county. But the Democrats contemptuously rejected her candidacy and nominated the man rather than the woman. If Republicans were to do this year in regard to Miss Toles what the Democrats did four years ago in regard to Miss Boehringer, how are we better than they2
 .I think that most candidates for high public office are impelled thereto by a keen desire to render some dis tinct public service. l am sure it was so with me. The great school problem in this state is the very great inn provement of the rural schools. They have been and are now contemptuously ignored and neglected. Many of them have poor buildings, insanitary toilets, impure drinking water, scanty equip ment and the poorest teachers in the state.
 Better Rural Schools Needed
 There are about 5000 rural school pupils in Arizona who have no modern facilities and there are 12.000 more who have no adequate school supervision and only a haphazard, happy go-lucky course of study and discipline. Tns great obstacle to doing anythin2 worth while is a set of bad school i laws; but there are additional ob- stac1es in the incompetence and in difference of school trustees.

DANCED! BEWARE!

A woman who was too eco
nomical to subscribe for her
home paper sent her little son to
borrow the copy taken by her
neighbor. In his haste the boy
ran over a four dollar stand of
bees and in ten minutes looked
like a warty Summer squash.
His cries reached his father, who
ran to his assistance, and, failing
to notice barbed fire fence, ran
into it, breaking it down, cutting
a handful of flesh from his ana
tony and running a twenty dol
lar pair of pants. The old COW
took advantage of the gap in the
fence and got into the cornfield
and killed herself eating corn.
Hearing the racket, the mother
ran, upset a four gallon chuln of
rich cream into basket of kit
tens, drowning the whole litter.
In her hurry she dropped and
broke, past all hope of mending,
fifty dollar set of false teeth.
The baby, left alone, crawled
through the spilled cream and
into the parlor, running a fifty
dollar carpet. During the excite
ment the eldest daughter ran
away with the hired man, the
dog broke up eleven setting hens
and the calves got out and chew
ed the tails off of four fine
shirts.
And all to save two dollars.
Moral: Subscribe for this pa
per at once and protect yourself
from such calamities.

Los Angeles has given the ma

front as the largest center of
population on the Pacific Coast.
The remarkable showing of the
California metropolis illustrates
the possibilities of emphasizing
natural advantages. A few
years ago Los Angles was cred
tied with little besides some nice
orange groves and a wonderful
climate. Los Angles capitalized
her climate. She spent money
in advertising it. She devised
ingenious and devious ways of
letting the world know of it's
superiority. Every native was
a bug" on the subject of eli
mate, and people who came to in
vestigate were readily inoculated
with enthusiasm. Now the GEN.

Los Angeles holds the pennant
as the result of persistent and
consistent civic advertising.
