Where the People
 May Have a Hearing

Editor of The Arizona Republican.
 Dear Sir: Last year the parent
 teachers of the Phoenix Union High
 school had a meeting and decided that
 the girls should dress in mfddies and
 blue skirts or white l also think the
 school board took this matter up and
 sanctioned it and it was thought that
 they made this one of the rules of the
 school. There were a number of req
 sons set forth why the girls should
 dress this way. The boys all dress in
 cadet uniform and this is compulsory.
 The girls were attending school in
 party and ball dresses mad it was hav-
 ing a demoralizing effect on the pupils.
 Some girls quit school because they
 could not keep up with the procession. And the drain on the pocket book of some of the parents was getting to be a serious matter. It was thought that this year there would not be any of this But there is a class of pupils who are going to do as they please in spite of all rules and laws. It is safe to say that the majority of the girls in the school this year wear the middy and the skirt and a very pleasant sight they are. But there are some who come arrayed in such manner that they would put Solomon to shame. And this
 Is causing dissatisfaction among those who are trying to live up to the rules
 of the school And this is also caus- ing good deal of trouble to the par ents Why can't the teachers and the board see that all pupils abide by this rule. It seems to me that this is an other place to teach and practice AmericaniSm for true AmericaniSm means obedience to those in authority. MRS. H. A. DAVIS.

GOVERNOR ID VISIT
 TROOP \ IN CAMP

Governor Thomas F.. Campbell and Aljutant General Walter $. Ingalls, are expected to review Troop A, First Cavalry. Arizona National guard, which is attending instruction camp at Camp Harry J. Jones' Douglas, on next Tuesday, according to word from the Shelter City yesterday The Douglas Chamber of Commerce will give a. dance in honor of the troop at the Gadsden hotel on Thursday evening, and the troopers will return to Phoenix on Friday.
 The instruction camp. it was said here yesterday, is proving very sue cessful. The members of Troop X are working in conjunction with the cav alrymen at Camp Harry J. Jones, and the daily schedule is packed with work from 6:45 o'clock in the morning until late at night. Officers and men, how ever, are finding it the greatest bene- fit, and it is believed that the camp next year will be one of the features Of military life in the southwest.

THIS IS GOOD NEWS

At last there is "unbreakable glass. '
 Much glass is more pliabie than often suspected. A strip of good glass bends in a curve when held by the ends. And some time ago glass dishes which wouldsstand the heat of any kitchen oven without breaking were introduced.
 But more glass is brittle. as every one knows, and breaks at little press ure. heat or shock.
 The newly invented glass will stand the shock of a high power pistol bullet It shows the mark. and splinters under the impact at close range. but is not penetrated.
 Imagine the surprise of a small boy who throws a baseball carelessly, and sees it rebound from a neighbors win dow. How many whippings would have been escaped had window glass always been of this sort!
 Unbreakable glass will be of interest to housekeepers who find that house maids sometimes are not careful. And imagine the surprise Of a hOusemaid who drops a thin goblet on the kitchen floor and sees 1t bound and roll into 2 corner unharmed.
 Consider also those gentlemen who carry a flask in the hip pocket when they travel No longer, should they slip and fall, will it be necessary foI them to fall flask side upi

GOING TO UNIVERSITY--Miss Ida c. Hilbers of rural route four will leave this morning for Tucson, to attend the University of Arizona.
 STILL IN OLD BUSINESS-In a recent report of the organization of the Heath Sylvester Realty company a possible impression was given that C. E. Heath had closed his photographic studio. This, MT. Heath says. is not the case, as the studio will continue at the same location, and with no change in personnel.
 PLEADS GUILTY-The case of Mrs Louise Contreras, charged with assault by means likely to produce great bod fly harm, came up for a hearing yes terday in the superior court. Mrs. Con- treras, however, waived a trial and pleaded guilty to the charge. She will be sentenced next Monday by Judge Stanford. Mrs. Contreras is charged with burning the thighs of her eight year -old daughter with a hot flat iron as punishment for an uncomfortable act. The punishment took place last June on ranch near Phoenix. The cries of the daughter attracted the neighbors and Mrs. Contreras was ar rested.
 FINALLY FOUND HIM-After mak- ing several trips only to find him not hofne, Constable Haze Burch of the East Phoenix precinct Thursday night succeeded in placing Ollie Thompson colored, under arrest on warrant charging him with burglary. Thomp son was taken to the county jail and will be arraigned today before Justice Charles De Sales Wheeler. Constable | Burch found the negro hiding in bed and seizing him by the foot forced him to hop on the other foot from the bed to the automobile waiting at the | curbing. Thompson is charged with taking a sack of sugar from the Vance l bakery.
