The launching of this movement, with such exalted ideals as outlined above. has been characterized as the greatest piece of work accomplished iR any city by any one publication fighting single handed and, you might say. alone. The CamePs Back takes pardonable pride in the leading part it has taken in this daring enterprise the emancipation of the poor fish in every household. Taking pardonable pride is, might add, the most de- lectable indoor sport that the Cancels Back indulges in. But it is the only way-the American way. If you don't believe it, ask

The Kind of a Union Needed

We believe that if the rank and file of members Of organized labor Phoenix had been at the meet ing of the Phoenix Building Trades Open Shop As socation on Tuesday night, and heard speeches which by many members, the opposition the open shop would have vanished. There would a partial of that consciousness which the tators their interest working so desper- ately keep alive
 They would have found that they were among their fellow citizens, the great majority of whom have interests entirely in common with them-the up building of Phoenix, the production contribution to lowering the of living which heavily the laboring anybody else. They would perhaps have what they ought clearly that their interests and the interests agitation not in common but in conflict of the latter lies dividing the worker all classes of citizens and in keeping him herded apart
 We have said in the foregoing paragraph ma- jority citizens there had interests with those of the worker. Though we made that distinc ton purposely, that might refer to it later, introduce the contractor the direct employer whose interests the only which could any circumstances in conflict with labor.

 Nothing seems willing to come our way.
 Bob Holiday parenthesis we never can remember how he spells his name close parenthesis sits in front of us with his head stuck in his desk an1 does nothing to entertain.
 Just when happy thought hovers on the horizon Bob lifts his head from looking at the evening contemporary and says: "I see the Gazette is run ming short of paper" And right away the bird at the next desk says: What do they need paper for?''

 One way of saving paper is to run coupla feet of editorial on the front page telling the world how short we are of paper.

INFLAMMATION WANTED

We cannot help but be concerned over Felix, our Mexican neighbor. Our more or less constant readers will re- call that Felix is the gent with whom we remonstrated over his using an American flag to patch his chicken fence. And when we asked him It he didn't know what flag that was, ne shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't know who owned the flag-he found it down on the river
 Not long ago we suggested to Felix that We as neighborly neighbors should get together and replace the old fence that divides our respective properties. To offer an exceptional the wire and the posts and to put the wire on, his part in the drama con- sisting only of setting the posts. He demurred.
 Now look-a-here- Felix we said, I'm going to pasture some cattle on fence here the cattle will walk over and ruin your cotton
 Humph!" he humphed with the in evItaole shrug of the shoulders-to in dicate his complete vindication, you cattle come into my cotton; my cotton no come into your cattle.''
 Can some resourceful reader hand us a complete comeback to such an ex- position of logic-other than a swift kick in the Slats?
 Postscript: In order to round out the story we should add that we built the fence alone. The morning after the job was done we got up to find that Felix had. during the night, put his four horses out on the ditch to sraze They were pulling the new Wire off the posts.

A prominent citizen of the town. whose church attendance we fear is more or less intermittent. decided to 80 to church on Easter.
 Tt certainly pays to go to church.. he remarked the/ other day.
 Yeah, what now"
 Well sir he explained. here we have been trying to get a good cook for the past six months. At church last Sunday I was getting so desperate prayed for cook. Now. you may not believe it, but two days later the maid next door came to the back door and told us she knew where we could get a cook. We sent for her and she's the best we have had in years."
 In order to protect our friends rights to the cook we refuse to divulge his name.
 The other side of the story is that t:r.G mans wife caught cold in church that day. Choose your own moral.
