The jackrabbit drive held at Avon
 dale last Sunday was one of the most successful ever held here, according to local sportsmen who attended. The jackrabbits had damaged the cotton and alfalfa crops of the Avondale dis trict to the extent of about $40,000 so a counter attack was organized by the farmers. J. N. Brooks of Avondale, took the matter up for the farmers and secured the assistance of the U. s. Biological Survey, the University of Arizona and Maricopa county. D. A

EAST, WEST, HOME IS BEST
 By Or. James l. Vance

Home the best place in the world. It is treas house of joy.
 It stands for father and mother, for husband and wife for and daughter for brother and sister, for the sweetest and holest of human ties.
 It is the place where welcome waits and love reigns happiness dwells. There cast aside the mask and relax. There get away from the gaping crowd and be ourselves. Once the ventonasm artificially and the cheap applause and tawdry show of the dress parade.
 Home is where they love you not for what you have, but for what you are. Home is where they believe in you. The street and the shop may that your credit is gone; but under the kindly roof tree of home, faith abides.
 Home is what we live for and toll for and sweat and suffer and pray for and 1t is what some would die for. Take home away, and there would be little left. It is the Bethlehem where sweetest loves are born. It is the Mecca toward which pilgrim feet turning.
 It may be a cabin the hillside a cottage in the del it may be palace hovel; it may be shabby house the edge of a slum a tenement some cheap street. but if 1t is home it holds bit of heaven. Be Is humble, there's no place like home.
 Happy is he who has home. Pity for those who homeless. Shame on the man who defames and dishonors and destroys his home There is no fouIer crime blacker sin than this-to deliberately pro- fane the sanctities of home. What poor fool is he who lets painted woman come between him and the wife he has vowed to love, honor and cherish until as the result his perfidy, his home is in ruins!
 Love builds home lust destroys it. Home is the Savior's name for heaven When He speaks of hell, He calls it the far country" Heaven Is Tong home"
 Wonder on the skyline of faith the golden dream takes shape. Down from the crystal heavens the home sngns it's music into weary hearts lifts at tired feet. After the long journey is ended, we shall rest the doorstep of home. After the days work is done. shall have loved ones about us and look into dear faces. shall say East, west home Is best"

WHILE THE MAID cHuckLEp

'As l was saying" remarked his wife, as she passed the tray of bread. you have an unreasonable attitude in the current magazines. You'd make an unusually severe editor to please. In fact, I think you wouldn't make an editor at all. for that very reason. I don't know just why-but perhaps it is because of some unfor- tunate experiences you have had with stories in the magazines-but it is a fact that because you run across one or two poor ones you immediately class all of the stories as unworthy of your time"
 Not at all. my dear" he defended. motioning for the butter, but when I am skimming through magazine and come to stories illustrated with pie ture of young folks in white flannels on the decks of @ private yacht, with nodding palms on distant islands and the whitecaps kissing the azure-or, to take another illustration-well, what's the use?

 Yes, there you go. You're all for the story. Why, I'd read an entire story to get a choice phrase or just a little new idea. I recall right now that the only thing I got out of Gals worthy's Dark Flower'-the only thing that stays with me out of the whole story is just one phrase

The Best Recognition

'f~NNT+-N
 The Spokesman Review of Spokane, Washington, under the caption of Democrats Voting for Harding Deserve Recognition" points out that the popular majority of s.OOooOO given Harding over Cox. when four years ago the country Wilson majority Of eooooo over Hughes. is something worthy of con- alteration. Some hundreds of thousands of demo- ernts thinks the Spokesman Review, must have trieuted to this startling reversal.
 What will be the attitude of the victorious re- publican party to these recruitsthe republicans who returned from wanderings in 1912 and 1916 and tho hundreds of thousands of democrats whom they brought back with them? asks the Spokesman Re view
 Answering the first part of the question: we be- nsve that bygones have been bygones; that the re- publican party whatever might have been the diff fercnces within it. united in the campaign that tho returning will not be received pro- hation but that they already in full membership end equal partnership and that the progressive ele snert of the party. if that is what the Spokesman Review raeans. will be influential in the course of the party those who formerly belonged to the old ssand-pat element.
 The reactionaries we believe ard now compara- lively few. We do not think that a bakers dozen of pror.nent republican leaders could be who would openly counsel return of the party to the poulton 1t occupied in 1912 The world has moved and the great of republicans has moved with 1t.
 As to the recognition of the democrats who have accompanied the wandering republicans back to the Told, (though we do not concede that any of the republicans are in the old fold. but insist that all Of them are and advanced ground) that 10 aaethsr matter.
 # the Spokesman Review by "recogni- tiun~ the privilege of office holding. do not know how 1t be given how such rewards be bestowed with proper discrimination, however, vorthily they might be bestowed
 The democrats who joined the republicans did hot in a body with banners flying, under any leadership. Few democratic leaders are known to have joined the No doubt many of them dld 60. but without blare of trumpets. Those who came. came with expectation of reward and, per hsps comparatively few of them with the intention of remaining
 official honor. doubt very much whether the rank ahd file of the democrats who voted the republican ticket would regard it with appreciation. They expected nothing of this themselves for other members of the party
 We believe with the Spokesman Review. though not because large numbers of democrats voted with the republicans, that it would be graceful thing for Mr. Harding to seek democratic counsel in the solu- ton of the problems which confront the country The people have protested against rule as they did two years ago against invitation to a strict one party rule in great emergency.
 The best recognition though. that be given the democrats is to give them govern ment different possible from the government against which they protested; give them the kind of government that they and the returning republ- cans voted for. Then we will all be satisfied and gratified.

As- suming a man in the condition physi- cally that this man was in within that period of time, we will say, extending one month immediately before his death, during that entire period of time, if-and I am just putting this as hypothetical question-if a son of his, a grown man, and his sons wife. being of course the daughter-in law of this patient, for the period of time. frequently and virtually every night curse and upraid the man, and if on a number of occasions during that time both the daughter in-law and the son should slap the man, and then the son strike and beat him with his fists and urge him to sign documents of some sort against his wishes, I will ask you whether, in your opinion, that sort of conduct on the part of the son and daughter Jaw would accelerate os hasten the death of this patient?"

LISTEN TO THIS, GIRLS

Nevertheless one must seize and pro- claim the truth again. And the truth is that intellectually and creatively man is the superior of woman, and that in the region of creative intellect there are things which men almost haDitualiy do but which women have not done and give practically no sign of ever being able to do.
 some platItudeS must now be ut tered. The literature of the world can show at least fifty male poets greater than any women poet. Indeed, the women poets who have reached even second rank are exceedingly few perhaps not more than half a dozen, with the possible exception of Emily Bronte no woman novelist has yet produced novel to equal the great novels of men. One may be enthu- s1ast1c for Jane Austen without put ting Pride and Prejudice in the same category with Anna Karenina or The Woodlanders. No woman at all has achieved either painting or sculpture that is better than second rate, or music that is better than second rate l.. Nor has any woman come anywhere near the top in criticism. Can any body name a celebrated woman phi lo5opher; or woman who has made a first rate scientific discovery; or a woman who has arrived at a first rate generalization of any sort?-Ar- mold Bennett in Our Women"
