That I'll only stay.

And I'll promise now
If you'll see to It.

There's a little guy.
Who has built a house.

He has cut in two.

And outside Of the house
He has a sign

And I saw the sign
And hurried in
On my frantic quest

And he showed me through.
And ] said to him

And he looked at me.
And he never blinked.

TAXPAYERS ASSN CONDEMNS
 SCHOOL INCREASE INITIATIVE

Signatures are rapidly being se- cured throughout the state to meas ure increasing the school taxes of the state for the maintenance of. the com- mon schools. The last legislative ap- propriation for common schools raised the annual allowance from $5OO, 900 to $750,000, the latter figure provid- ing $11 for each child of school age. The proposed law used as basis of $20 per child.
 This initiative measure was framed blythe county superintendents in ses- sion some weeks ago and is under stood to have the support of the state superintendent of public instruction. Signatures to the petitions are being secured on the argument that it will help secure larger salaries for teach CTS
 The State Taxpayers association has taken up cudgels against the proposed measure, and an attack will be made in the next issue of the Taxpayers magazine. The bill will be condemned as piece of legislative extravaganza which merits the negative vote of ev- cry taxpayer in the state.

A certain theatrical troupe, after a dreary and unsuccessful tour, finally arrived in a small New Jersey town. That night, though there was no furor or general uprising of the audience, there was enough hand clapping to arouse the troupe's dejected spirits.
 The leading man stepped to the footlights after the first act and bow ed profundly. Still the clapping con tinued. When he went behind the scenes he saw an Irish stagehand laughing heartily.
 "Well, what do you think of that 2" asked the actor throwing out his chest.
 "What dye mane?" replied the Irishman.
 "Why, the handclapping out there," was the reply.
 "Handclapping?"
 "Yes," replied the Thespian; "they are giving me enough applause to show they appreciate me-"

SEVEN MILLION MOTOR CARS
 USED IN UNITED STATES

Of interest to the average car own CT is the total number of motor driv- en vehicles in the United States and the comparative number of passenger cars and motor trucks. Out of ap- proximately 100000 motor vehicles, 65O,0O0 are used for commercial pur- poses-passenger cars out-numbering motor trucks by more than ten to one. About 375,000 trucks are equipped with pneumatic tires, showing the tre- mendous strides made by the pneu- matic in the few years since it's de- velopment. That 275,000 trucks are running on solid tires indicates that this and the cushion type will always have a certain field where superior traction and cushioning powers gre not necessary.

The government has announced that the population of Phoenix was 29,O53 persons as against II, 1,134 persons in 1910, an increase of almost 150 per cent in ten years.
 The city in ten years has undergone a complete change and it's greatest growth due to the completion of the Roosevelt dam in 1911, has been with in that period. At the Phoenix cham Der of commerce the following state ment was issued Tuesday:
 "While we accept the figures of the government as to population, in com pliance with resolution recently adopted by the Phoenix census com- mittee, we know that they are made auate. From our figures the people of Phoenix may draw their own con- ciusions. Official count of school chil- dren between the ages of and 12 years is 9,956, which number multi piled by 5, or five to family, gives almost 50,O0O persons. If multiplied by 4, which is considered short of act ual surveys, the total would be more than 38,O0O population. To split the difference would be a population of about 45,000 persons.
 "But the chamber of commerce has gone further and given even wider latitude in which to work. It has talk en the number of telephones, which is 6160, and multiplied by 6.5, which is only six and one-half persons to the telephone, and has found that the re- suit is 40,040 population. It has many more figures, such as those based on the number of electric connections, water connections and directory names, but considers the school census the most definite"
