 The state is still willing to go ahead with the construction of an arm- ory in Phoenix provided the city will do its part City officials are favor able, our chamber of commerce armory committee is still enthusiastic, and the only thing necessary is little CO., operation on the part of individual citizens.
 If you will do your part, and pro- vide an armory, the officers of the 15Sth infantry stationed in Phoenix promise to give you three or more or ganizations of which you can be proud and which will maintain the reputa tion established by 'Arizona's own during the late war.
 Your part right now is to request the city commission to call a bond election as soon as possible. and wher it is called vote yourself and get others to vote.
 Those of us who are now putting in a lot of time and hard work ask that you get busy and help us to the above extent, then leave it to us"

This 25-cent thrift stamp, however, has been retained and is still on sale with the other securities at all postoffices and virtually all banks.

WHY?

What is the matter with Demlng
that her citizens did not turn out ON
Memorial Day: the day set apart to as
semble To pay the obligations due to
those who have died 10 secure 10 Us
the peaceful possession of our homes.
When we consider the list OF Dem
mg's activities, the real cause for such
apathy ana Indifference is not appar-
.ent. Certainly il is not for lack oil
energy, for the industry OF Demlng
citizens is apparent in the comfortable
public buildings-armory, court house,
.ho>pitnls, churches. These may not
display great maminicence' but they
demonstrate the capacity and common
sense of the people.
In the channels of trade we find tha
same activity; merchants obtain the
goods needed to satisfy the call oi
necessity and luxury. -
The dentist with steady skilled
hands relieve pain and secures to US
the use Of teeth that in the course oil
nnture we would lose. The patient
physician, tired by midnight vigils al
the bedside of suffering, brings to our

science of the schools The druggis'
who compounds the medicines to cure
our Ills, uses TO the utmost the tram
ing that Is his through careful study
and practice. The kindly pastor VINO

LITTLE SINS LEAD TO BIG ONES

The editor Of the Albuquerque Jour
nal, who lived Is years in Tulsa, Okla,
scene OF the recent race riot lays the
shame of the outburst on petty law
breaking. In part he says:
"Winking ut law violations, or deal
ing with them with IA lenient hand'
encourages Just such crisis as this one.
Eternal vigilance and eternal war
against professional vice, is the price
OF law and order. The habit OF being
law.abiding is the only safety when
times of stress come. The habituai
lawlessness in so-called, smaller mat
ters OF law violation, become the utter
Iy abandoned, ruthless and irrespoiisl'
bile criminals when the mob 1eNer pe-
gins TO burn. No habitually law-aDlu'
ing man joined In the crime. Iuis'
must clean-out this element and do
thorough job. A public sentiment
which has complacently endured thi'
yirulent bacilli OF crime, should bG
whipped, by this affair, into a militah'
demand for civic deceDcy."
