STORY WRITERS MAY
 BE DEVELOPED FROM CLASS JUST STARTED

Can you distinguish a short story from a novelette, or an episode?
 Can you appreciate the fine tech story of the superior type?
 Could you write readable and technically correct short story?
 It is because the average manS woman would answer in the negafHe to one or all of these questions tNt a short story writing course was inau- gurated at the Phoenix union hiI7 school last night The special class will convene Monday, Wednesday, and FridiA nights from TAO until S:20 oclocn. The course will be completed in about two months.
 Anyone who can read and write is eligible to membership in this class. Although it opened with an initial at tendance of 10, it is expected that as many more applicants will be accepted before the week is over
 H. w. Stauffacher, registrar of the high school is in charge of the short story writing class. and is prepared to accept as many as 25 pupils. This class will supplant in 8 way the one which has just completed a course in the drama
 T do not guarantee that the pupils who finish the course in short story writing will become proficient in the art. but they will at least have ac- quired a broad appreciation of the modern short story and will develop whatever natural writing ability they may possess MT. Stauffacher said last night. He explained that the class would study the technique sof story writing and would closely analyze the work of some of the best of the mod ern authors that several of the best modern short stories would be read and that the pupils would be called upon to produce original work. @
 Similar classes have been instru- mental in discovering and developing latent talent of real merit,' Mir. Stauf- facher said and expressed the opinion that some excellent results would be obtained from the class just formed.

WORTH WHILE-SMILE
By Roqer WI. Babsor


 Who does not know the value of a cheery and brave smile?
 If most people are grouchy and miserable their faces indicate. what is the poor old world ing to?
 If you not happy least make your face look happy.
 Don't admit that you are not happy in such 3 glorious world
 Smile while it hard do so and will become easy.
 We all know that "The man worth while is the who smile when everything goes dead wrong"
 Let be worth while-and smile It is insult the Creator go out into His beautiful world with face. Forget the injuries and hurts that have been dealt you by thoughtess people.
 These things need not you. Laugh at em.
 Think of the other lives with~which you in contact-lives that unhappy unfortunate. They need you.
 Give them your smiles and good cheer By simply being happy and serence, bring to many lonely hearts.
 It is worth while to try,

NEVER AT EASE IN
 DENTIST OFFICE

One is never at ones ease when one enters a dentists office, although one may maintain a bold front. Epifgins's morale, however was visibly shattered when he first noted his new dentist had helper. Dentists he previously had hunted always had made their kills singly.
 It was not difficult for Spifkins to guess the reason for the helper. Un- doubtedly, he reflected, there have been times, when desperate patients have leaped from the chan and made good their escape. A helEr could forestall that. And an orderly on the alert for that malignant gleam in patients eye which betrays an intention of clamping down on one or two of the dental digits in his mouth, might sound the retreat in time.
 Spiffkins's first shock at presence of helper over, he 0Axt noted she was woman helper, or as she might be designated, not unfittingly, in the term 1 inology of the undertaken. "lary as- sistant" She was clad cleverly in un lrelieved white. There was a coldiy effi- eient air about her. Stern lines at tho corner of her mouth indicated she knew no mercy.

TRAIN YOUR EYES

What is the design of your bath room wall paper? Quickly now, how many steps to your attic and how many to your cellar? Can you tell the number of prongs on your table forks?
 Most folks wonder through life quite blind. They see the unusual things and the socalled interesting things but never at things that them day after day.
 But even the unusual most folks see with only half their eyes You and your friend witness au- tomobile accident from exactly the viewpoint. table you try to reconstruct the scene for the rest of the family. You will differ dozen points and some of them essential. Neither of you really the accident. You only little of it.
 It all comes from misunderstanding of the facts of the case say yourself: 'I there Of course I saw it! have eyes haven't I?" But it doesn't follow that because you were there and have eyes that you saw anymore than it follows that be- cause you have a violin you play it.
 You would expect to play musical instrument only when your brain and your fingers had been trained to ways. Yet folks take it for granted that the difficult accomplishment of seeing all and seeing accurately is a heaven given talent
 Train yourself at this business of seeing. Play the instrument of your eyesight carefully you would an for the delight of the musical center of your brain.

Washington. Nov. 15-The annual report of General sherman was made public today. He agrees with Sher- idan that the army is too small to fulfill the heavy duties now imposed on it and asks that it be increased to 25,000 men in the line. The report says that the Pacific railroads have revolutionized the country in few years, rendering many of the old nll- ilitary posts useless and he now be- lieves that the time has come when many of the smaller posts should be abondoned and troops concentrated at frontier and at important railway cen ters whence they can be sent to any direction.

WHOLE COUNTY ASKS
 TO FORM HIGH SCHOOL

Whether a high school district can cover en entire county was the ques- tion put up to Wiley F. Jones, attorney general, by residents of Springerville in Apache county. 1t appears that only a certain portion of the county can main tain a high school, therefore the people of Apache county are desirous of mak- ing the whole county a district.
 MT. Jones in referring the writers to the county attorney of their county stated that in his opinion it could be done. In commenting upon the school situation, MT. Jones stated that some years ago II districts formed a high school in Maricopa county
