NEWTON D. BAKER.
Secretary of War Endorses Great
 Humanitarian Cause.

Phoenix, Feb Many men in Washington official life and high in the councils of the Democratic party are lending their support to the Near East Relief, the name of the American business organization which is caring for thousands of destitute children and women in Near Eastern countries.
 Newton D. Baker, secretary of war, is the latest to come for ward with a hearty endorsement for this great humanitarian cause. In letter to the national organization. copy of which has just been received by the state headquarters at Phoenix he says:
 My dear MT. Burgess:-I am to have the pleasure at the mass meeting to be held by the Near East Relief in Washington early in February, at which time the campaign will be opened here funds needed by the Relief for it's works in Armenia and other neat East countries.
 Under the arrangement where by the Red Cross has yielded this field of relief work to the Near East Relief, the whole problem of extending American aid to these stricken people depends upon you and your associates, and I know of no language strong enough to state adequately their need at this time. Before and during the war, Armenia was especially devasted; all the plaques of disease, famine and massacre laid their heavy hand upon it's population, and if the remnant of these hardy people is to be saved to re establish the coun- try it must be done this winter when their own means of subsis- tence are utterly inadequate.
 I trust the appeal for funds will be gaperously responded to.
 Cordially yours,
 (Signed) NEWTON D. BAKER.

MIDDLE CLASS GIRL SPOILED.

London, Feb.-"The present. day middle class girl has been spoiled, she is lazy, restless, pleasure seeking and egotistical, has better time than any other women in the world, but she is never satisfied" accuses a wo- man writing to the London Daily News over the signature Vic torian."
 "The young married woman of today appears to think that she is the only woman who has ever had any domestic difficult ties, or had to do any work" she writes. "The fact is of course, that she has a far easier time than women had in my day.
 In those days we didn't grumble, or look upon ourselves as victims. We didn't talk about any revolt of housewives or worry our husbands to death with demands for 8 better time. We worked hard and cheerfully, did without ldxuries and expen- sive holidays, and brought up large families without consider ing ourselves martyrs.
 "The trouble is that the pre- sent day middle class girl is 'spoilt.' Usually, she dislikes children, and resents having to give up any time to looking after them. She would rather play bridge than hear a child's pray CTS.
 "The more I see of the young married woman of today, and the more I hear of her constant grum bling, the more proud I am of being an old Victorian"

Teachers of Agriculture Wanted.

In University Assembly last week Professor H. H. Gibson emphasized the fact that there is at present scarcity of high school teachers of agriculture in this state. No fewer than twelve new men will be needed next year. The demand for first class teachers of agriculture in the high schools of this state, as in many others, far exceeds the supply. At the present time only one of the fourteen high school teachers of agriculture ia a native of Arizona, and has re- ceived any considerable farm experience or schooling under local conditions.
 Beginning this semester, cour- ses will be given iu the Univer- sity of Arizona for the first time with a view to meet this special need. Numerous enquiries are being made by students concern ing the teaching of agriculture in the high schools. The ques- tion most frequently asked re- lates to the inducements offered in this work. Professor Gibson. who has charge of the teacher training work in agriculture, will be glad to answer all ques- tions regarding such matters as salaries, opportunities for advAn- cement, the nature of the work, and the courses to be given this coming semester.
 The place of agriculture in the high schools, said Professor Gibson, although comparatively new, Is already large. The movement is broad in scope and is growing rapidly. The condi- tions inherent in. the. movement are such as to insure it's per- mauency. Agriculture in the high schools is bound to occupy a place of increasing importance in our scheme of agricultural education.

HEATING NUISANCES.
State Board Tells of Power of Local
 Health Officials.

"Our town authorities will not spend the money necessary to secure proper conditions. Citi zens are unwilling to obey health orders when the abatement of the nuisance would require a money expenditure. What can we do about it?"
 This is query that often reaches the State Board of Health. The method of secur- ing the abatement of nuisances and conditions that menace pub lie health are simple and direct. Full control of the matter lies with the County Board of Health and in incorporated cities, with the local health board.
 Paragraph 1876 of the Civil Code gives the Board of Health power to take any steps it may deem necessary to abate a public nuisance.
 Paragraph 383 of the Penal Code defines public nuisance as anything that is injurious to health, or is indecent, or offen sive to the senses, or an ob- struction to the free use of pro perty, or interferes with the comfortab ble enjoyment of life or property by any considerable mum Der of persons.
 Paragraph 387 of the Penal Code makes it misdemeanor, punishable with fine and i'm prisonment, if any owner fails k0 hi rt h ftlI condition, when ordered to dos by the Health Board. Paragraph 4786 of the Civil Code fixes the punishment for failure to obey an order of the Board of Health at $1OO fine or 30 days imprison- ment or both.
 Paragraphs 1888, 1889, 439O and 4391 give full power to the local Health Officer, acting for the Board of Health to take all steps necessary to destroy or re- move or prevent the source of trouble and if the owner of the property fails to act when or dered so to do, he may be arrest ed and the Health Officer may have the work done, and the expense incurrent must be paid by such owner or occupant or by such person as has caused or permitted the nuisance" Usually, it is enough for the Health Officer to notify an of fender that a certain nuisance must be abated." says the State Board of Health. Where the offender fails to obey promptly. the Health Officer should have the County or the City Attorney or the local Justice of the Peace issue 8 complaint explaining what steps must be taken to abate the nuisance, this com plairt should be served on the proper party. Usually it is bet ter to serve the owner. If he cannot be readily reached, the occupant or the person who has caused the nuisance may be held.
 If the nuisance is not abated as the health officer directs, he may take any steps necessary and charge same to the owner of the property or the person re- sponsible for the trouble.
