Schoolmasters Meet
 The second meeting of the School masters club was held at the Normal dining hall on the evening of NOvem- Der 13. There was a large attendance, not only of the regular members, but of school men from all over the state. Both the club and it's visitors were the guests of Dr. Matthews. First a stump tuous banquet was served; it was more than an ordinary feed, was in fact one one of the best that Chef Krause could devise. Then came a program of un- usual interest. There were songs by Professor Beckwith, accompanied by Miss Gerrish, which were greatly en- ioyed. Professor Irish acted as toast master and introduced many of the vis- iting school men. Among those who responded were Superintendent Mullen of Jerome. Martin of Prescott, Robert son of Florence. Rose of Tucson, Welle- meyer of Douglas Grover of Winslow, Brangan of Holbrook and Oakes of Ray. The principal address of the eve ming was given by Dr. D. l.. McMullen of Flagstaff upon the subject of the model school. Altogether about 60 per sons were present. Before the ban l uuet the visitors were shown over the campus and through the normal bull dings by various members of the nor nal faculty.

Argentine Officials Must Not Use PoIUer
 For PriUate Interests

BUENOS AIRES, Nov. 20.-Presi- dent Irigoyan has asked the Argentine congress to pass a law designed to prevent officials of the government or their employees from using their in fluence in favor of private interests where business transactions with the government are involved. They would be forbidden under the measure from taking any part in such transactions either directly or indirectly.
 The measure was presented shortly after legislative committee had been appointed to investigate charges made in the chamber of deputies that Do-
 mingo E. SaIabarry, minister of if nance, had favored business concerns l in which he was interested in the mat 1 ter of granting permits to export 1 sugar, in the transportation of petro- leum and in the observance of eus- ] toms requirements.

Streets of Mexico
 City Will Be Fixed
[RepubIlcan A. P. Leased WIre1

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 2o.-The dilap- dated condition of Mexico City streets which caused taxicab owners of the city to stage a demonstration of pro- test recently, has been made the sub ject of an Investigating tour by the city council. Members were carried in automobiles over the city and so effectively did the chauffeurs strike all the ruts and holes that budget of $300.0O0 pesos for street improvement was voted the next day.
 At the demonstration held by the taxicab men a huge poster announced that a small car and its driver had dropped into a hole on Avenida Ma dera, the main thoroughfare of the city, and were lost for three days be- fore they were accidentally discov- cred.
 What is considered the largest poul- try center in the world is Petaluma Cal, whence almost 15,000,000 dozen eggs are sent out annually.

Valuable Tree.

A giant kaurl tree has been logged
by the Queensland forest service and
the timber sold for $1,000. 1t was
known as Bells tree and yielded IT,
600 superficial feet of timber in five
huge logs, and the logging costs
amounted to $500. The net stumpage
came to twelve feet 6 inches per 100
super feet. Had the tree been smaller
a higher prize would have been real
lied, as few saw-millers cared to ham
die it. This giant of the forest was
offered to kindergarten for $50 on
the stump, being at the rate of less
than 20 cents per super feet, twelve
years ago.

CALL FOR A NATIONAL CRY
for an Explosive, Express
sive Yell.

American audiences are charged
with being unresponsive and apathet-
&c, particularly in patriotic outdoor
demonstrations. Americans are not
incapable Of making loud. loyal noises.
and not averse thereto. But rarely is
a parade staged in this city that does
not move throughout large part of
its course between silent lines of spec
tators. The result is sometimes so
depressing as largely to neutralize the
desired effect Of the parade.
The will to cheer doubtless arises
all along the line, but there is no short
and easily exploded yell known to us.
'Hurrah,n is the traditional American
word for cheer, but no man will ven
ture its use in public, unless in the
wake of a cheer leader who prefaces
1t with hip, hip, hipI" Even then
the usual response testifies that this
method of cheering is getting rusty.
There is no lack of cheering on an
American football field, nor at any
kind Of demonstration on college
campus. The reason for this is that
good, expressive, explosive yells have
been devised for outdoor use. And
because they do explode, and because
they stand for something. the Ameri-
can public likes to use them. They
also like to follow a good yell leader.
America needs a national yell. The
man who can coin one will do the
country a great servlce.-Minneapolis

once upon time he was tempted and
fell; how in the early hours OF morn
ing he slipped away to a posted"
stream and drew from thence FIVE Of
the most beautiful bass ever seen.
The climax Of his story reads thus:
1.-The glorious day was peeping and
creeping through the silent trees

beauties and started homeward.

a clump of grass while ! filed my

bush brought visions of some Prov
ling thief and I threw myself prone
upon the bush and clutched for the
place where the fish might be. That
Is when I awoke and gathered myself
up from the bedroom floor where /
lay clutching jangling alarm clock"
Mr.. Genolin thus ends the story:

Of my story is yet to be told. The

On Bakers Day.

Charles had been going to kinder
garten about two weeks. During this
time the children had been taught the
song when the Sun Wakes Up at
Break of Day." The little fellow liked
1t very much and tried to sing it at
home. The children had been told
about Mrs. Baker living above the
kindergarten and that she could hear
them singing.
This fact. with the words of the
song made a deep impression on
Charles. When he reproduced the song
at home, this is what he insisted was
correct: "When the Sun Wakes Up on
Bakers Day."

M DOO SUGGESTS
REDUCED TAXATION
Says Present Burden Is Hav-
ing an Injurious Effect on
Business.

Washington.-An immediate billion
dollar reduction in federal taxes was
suggested in a statement issued Fri
day by William G. NcAdoo, former sec
rotary of the treasury. The present
tax burden is too great, he said, and
is having an injurious effect on bust
ness
Mr.. McAdoo proposed the collection
OF tax to establish a sinking fund
for retirement of the war debt, which
was recommended by former Secre-
tary Glass, to begin with the fiscal
year 1920, be postponed for two years,
and that the deferred payments of
European interest be funded until Eu-
roe is in a position to pay it's interest
charges.
THE financial policies of the ma
ton, as embodied in future congress
sional legislation said Mr.. McAdoo,
should realize the utmost economy in
expenditure, = and might we'll fund in
long-term bonds s1,000,000000 per an
mum for two years, or the amount now
raised by taxation.
Under the laws a tax to establish a
/ per cent sinking fund to retire bonds
now outstanding is to be collected, be-
ginning with the fiscal year 1920.
This might be postponed for at
least two years, and thus reduce the
tax burden by $250,000,00O annually
&c ~ Il oh
owes us, and which now amounts to
about $10,O00,000,OO0 If economic
restoration Of Europe had proceeded
far enough so that Europe could now
pay interest or this debt (as she will
be able to do within a few years., we
should have an income of $500,000,000
from this source. But that is not now
available. Why not fund that amount
against the day when it will come back
to US? By postponing for two years
the establishment of a sinking fund
and funding the deferred payments of
Europe's interest, we should cover
$750,0OO,000 of the $1,000, 100000 by
which our taxation might be reduced
by disseminating purchase of liberty
bonds for retirement under provisions
of existing law. The treasury would
be relieved of large burden now re-
Elected in the floating debt and which
otherwise will have to be made up by
taxation. It would seem that reduc-
ton of our tax bill for the next two
years in this manner would be accom-
plished and that it would involve tht
issuance of additional bonds to the
extent of probably not more than ST.
100000, 00O."

Dodson is making a hard fight
against calomel in the South. Every
druggist has noticed a great falling off
in the sale of cal0mel. They all give
the same reason Dodson's Liver Tone
is taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know ii, while D0dSon's Liver Tone is
perfectly safe and gives better results"
said prominent local druggist. bod
sons Liver Tone is personally guaran-
teed by every druggist. A large bottle
costs but few cents. and if it fails to
give easy relief in every case of liver
sluggishness and constipation, you
have only to ask for your money back
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy.
harmless to both children and adults.
Take spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine; no biliOusness, sick head
ache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. 1t doesn't grippe or cause incon-
venience all the next day like violent
calOmel. Take a dose of calOmel to-
day and tomorrow you will feel weak,
sick and nauseated. Don't lose days
work Take DodsOn's Liver Tone in
stead and feel fine, full of vigor and
ambition.-Adv.
