He had allowed business to absorb
him, fancying he was forgetting the

close to the end of a year. 1t seemed
as though he reviewed his old life,
just as his busy bookkeeper, bent
over his desk, was bulking up the
twelve months brokerage operations.
So wraiths of the far past fitted
through Telford's mind with Marcia

 Down Dairy Business and
 The Supply of Butter Fat

With scarcity of butter fats in the valley, due to the inroads made by cot ton on the local dairy industry, the Glendale branch of the Pacific Cream cry company of Phoenix has been closed. This was announced yesterday by the company. which stated the Glendale plant had been forced to fol
 low the companys Tempe creamery in shutting down
 Once numbered among the leading establishments of lhe valley, the Glendale and Tempe plants of the creamery company have gone, tempo
 rarily at least, as industrial factors here The Tempe plant was forced to close some time ago and the closing ] Of the Glendale plant has been made necessary.
 Anticipating a return of the dairy in ] dustry here, however, the Glendale and l Tempe condensaries will be kept in ] tact at their present locations, the company announced. The following I statement was made in explanation of l the shutdown brought on by the short i age of butter fats on account of the decline of the dairy industry: Refuse to Sell Plants The unprecedented prices that have l been offered fur our long staple cot ton have stimulated a demand for cot i ton acreage to the exclusion of dairy
 crops. This condition exists in spite Of
 the fact that the government experts
 have advised the rotation of cotton
 crops with alfalfa and other herd feed
 crops.
 Ut will probably be a question of just a short time until the farmers of
 the Salt River valley take cogniZance
 of the recommendations made by the 1 government experts and begin to rotate l their crops. This will pave the way
 for a return of dairy herds in commen- e7
 and the condensaries at Glendale and l Tempe will be ready to resume their 1 part in the handling Of our dairy prod
 ucts. With this in view. the Pacific l Creamery company has rejected some
 very attractive bids for these plants"

OPPORTUNITIES IN
 NAVY EDUCATIONAL
 SYSTEM SET FORTH

Opportunities offered by the navy educational system are set forth in d letter addressed to C. Q. Case, state superintendent of public instruction, from Lieutenant Commander k. F. Wilson of the training station at Great Lakes, III.
 In view of the fact that many boys are so situated financially that they are not able to continue their schooling after finishing the grammar or high school, he claims they would be inter ested in the instruction offered by the navy trade school.
 He writes as follows:
 The schools under my command are known as the L.. S. naval aviation mechanics schools and are located at the naval training station. Great Lakes, H.. about 35 miles north Of Chicago The course of instruction at these schools was laid down by Dr. Charles E. Lucke, head of the mechanical en- gineering department at Columbia university. There are 10 separate courses, covering all phases of aero nautical engineering, including motors planes, armament and instruments. At the present time three thousand men are undergoing instruction here. The equipment is made up Of wartime ma terial which is now being used for peace time purposes. The corps of instructors consists of 250 trained spe-
 
 down as to make the instruction highly intensive and at the same time very complete. The courses range in length 1 from four to nine months, depending upon the branch followed
 Men enlist for a period of three l years, so that after their training in i the schools they will obtain practical ] instruction in flying al one of the many naval air stations throughout the i country and the insular possessions 1 A man completing one of the courses l learns a trade that will be of value when he returns to civil life, in a school which is not eXceIled anywhere in the world today. Men who are interested | can obtain further particulars from ! the nearest navy recruiting office. At the present time the naval air service l is recruited to full strength, so that only very desirable men are admitted Boys who have parents dependent 1 upon them should not be urged to en- l list, as the rate of pay is only designed l to fill the wants of those who are ! independent.
 ''It is planned to utilize the full faciI- ! ities of the aviation mechanics school I in the training of all-around machin l ists and steam power plant operators ! It is expected that instructions will ] shortly be issued to enlist men for this ! purpose so that more openings will be available. h the training of mer at this station mo pains are spared in developing youths into citizens who will be a credit to the nation. If there fore any of the teachers under youi Supervision are confronted with tho problem of assisting their students tC further knowledge without expense tC themselves these schools offer a ready solution This information is there fore transmitted to you for such ust as you may care to make of it.
