Charitable Organiza :
tions Prepare to Give
Needy Of City Neces-
sites for Christmas

Preparations are being made
by charitable organizations
churches and different associa-
tions to give the poor of the city
merry Christmas by supplying
them with provisions and clothing
1t is estimated that there are
zoo poor OF the city which will be
aided by welfare workers from or
ganizations interested, and the
plans are to centralize the work
as much as possible.
The local post of the Salvation
Army, while its budget is not as
large this year as last, is making
every attempt to collect clothing
to supply those who are in need
and who are already applying for
aid. There are innumerable TAM
lilies in need of help throughout
the city, but are too proud to ask
assistance from charitable societies.
The post will place its boiling
pots" on every street corner down
town on Saturday, the proceeds
from which will be used in the
purchase of food to be distributed
on Christmas day to the poor.
The Red Cross, 1t was announced
this morning, will do no general
charitable work, but will devote |
Its efforts in assisting ex-service
men and their families.
The Jason Lee M. e. church has
already begun the collection of
clothing and work repairing and
putting 1t In a wearable condition
is being carried on. The church
is also planning Christmas tree
and entertainment sometime be-
fore Christmas to which the public

Governor Martin H. Glynn of New
York state, through whom Prime
Minister Lloyd George invited
Eamonn Devalera to negotiations
that finally led to an agreement
for settlement for the Irish ques-

owed Lloyd-Geo debt of graf

"Lloyd-George has settled a
problem that has baffled statemen
for seven hundred years" said Mr..
Glynn. "And in all justice to the
Irish leaders, 1t must be admitted
that DeValera. Collins and Grif-
fifth have placed themselves among
the clever statesmen OF the world.
The settlement of the Irish Iues-
tion is great Christmas gift to
humanity"

A POOR LESSON

A practice obtains in Phoenix which travellers say they have ob- served nowhere else Fond parents on street cars entrust to their very small children, ranging in age from from six months to three or four years, the business of handing the fare to the conductor. In about three cases out of five the fare slips from the unaccustomed fingers of the in- fant and falls upon the steel mating of the floor where it finds lodgment in one of the deep square recesses in the mating from which the conduc- tor extracts it with considerable diff ficulty. the while engaged in silent profanity. Occasionally the coin or coins roll under the seat whence it is rescued after a more extended search It is presumed that this practice is intended to accustom the off-spring
 to the handling of money, thus af-
 fording him primary instruction in the art of becoming a financier. If
 so, the practice is worse than a futile
 one. It instructs, if it conveys any
 instruction at all. in the business of giving up money instead of saving it,
 which is a prime function of finan- ceering.
 | Letting loose of money comes as naturally to humankind as swimming does to a duck. Some of the young l sters, though, evince rudimentary l ideas of correct business principles | by hanging on to the money. and set
 ting up a howl of protest against | spoilation.
 And this is the kind of kid that l thoughtless parents are teaching to be free and easy with his money.

HEAVY RA|NF ALL. FLOODS STREETS
Especial to The Republican,

FLORENCE, July 31.-Two inches of rain fell here within a two hour period this afternoon, inundating the business section of the city and flooding basements. It was the hard est storm of the year in this com munity. Total rainfall for the month here is now 5A inches.
 Main street was transformed into river within few minutes after the storm broke, water pouring over the gutters onto the sidewalks and, in some instances, seeping into busi- ness places. All basements in the business district were flooded but little damage resulted. it was an- nounced
 Rains were general throughout the valley. Heavy rains were reported at the diversion dam, where consid- erable damage was done. All trestle work at the dam went out, the ce- ment slab withstanding the heavy flow, however.
 Considerable damage was done to farms near Florence when the river went over the dykes for a distance 1 of about 150 yards. Forty acres of one ranch were completed inundated while 20 acres of another were com pletely submerged.
 The Casa Grande road was impass- l able today, the result of recent heavy rains.
 Indications pointed to additional rains tonight or Monday.

HADN'T MISSED FEM

This has been an unprecedented year in Arizona, or central Arizona, in many respects. Things have hap pened unlike events of any previous year and things that might have been expected to happen have failed to take place. The climate has been cu- riously different throughout the spring and summer.
 Other phenomena have been re- ported such as the scarcity of rattle snakes and buzzards but that has not occasioned hardship or disappoint- ment George Sears. who has been Tn the cattle business, and his father before him, from the earliest times along the Verde. says that usually at time of the year the range is alive With rattle snakes. On an ordinary day the cowboys used to report, each. the killing of from three to a dozen. Not half a dozen have been seen along the Verde in the whole of the present season.
 Usually too. in the summer time. the air is filled with buzzards but this year, though there has been plenty to attract them, for the desert and the mountains have bean dotted with carcases of cattle, very few bug zards have been seen and the cow boys of the Sears range say that the few they have seen appeared to be giving no attention to the dead cattle.
 Something, too, has happened to the Gila monsters. While never as numerous as snakes. there were al- ways some encountered on the range But not one has been seen this sum mer.

Little Stories
 of the ToWn
THEY ALL LOST

B. F. McFall, probation officer, still might have had on w. I. Brooks, as- sistant probation officer, had a cer- tain policeman on the city force been endowed with more patience. As it was McFan says, the joke failed to ma terialize by only 15 minutes Sew eral days ago. according to the story told by McFall, negro boy went to the police station and told the officers he had bought a stolen wheel, point ing out a Mexican youth as the one from whom he had made the pur- chase.
 The Mexican boy was arrested and to the chagrin of the negro boy, the officers kept the wheel. Both the Mexican, because of his age, and the wheel were turned over to the iu- venile court and taken to McFall's office. The Mexican boy, McFall said, admitted taking the wheel from a garage in Gilbert. An inyestiga- tion failed to locate the owner and the wheel remained in McFalFs of flee.
 Mr. Brooks, not having a bicycle, decided he would ride the wheel back ana forth to work and purchased . a lock for it. One morning this week he rode up town, McFalI said and left the wheel, with the lock on it. standing against the west wall of the Ford hotel building and went to the probation office in the Ford hotel annex. Sometime later a street car man passed the wheel and recog- nized it as one stolen from him re- gently.
 He at once called the police sta tion and an officer was stationed to watch the wheel to arrest the per son who came to claim it. At 4:45 o'clock in the afternoon, the police man decided the job was futile and took the wheel to the police station where the lock was filed off. At 5 o'clock Brooks came down to get the wheel and found 1t gone He called the police station. Then the tangle was unraveled and the wheel restored to it's owner.
