BUILDERS CLASS AT MIGHT SCHOOL |S TO BE FORMED TONIGHT

A vocational training class for builders will be formed at the night school tonight if the required num- Der of applications, 10, are received, 1t was announced yesterday. Per sons interested in this kind of study are requested to register at the office of the Phoenix union high school. Fifth and Van Buren streets. today and meet in the Industrial Arts building. Fifth and Taylor streets. not later than ' o'clock tonight
 Formation of such class is planned, it was announced, because of the great need of skilled. efficient mechanics in the building industry. There is a decided dearth of skilled workers, it was declared, not only in Phoenix but throughout the country The class will be organized to help the workman who is anxious and de- sirous of building himself up to meet the need in his chosen line. Voca- tional training classes of this na- ture are common in night schools in all sections of the country
 If a sufficient number of applica- tions are received today, instruction will begin at once, the announce ment said. Instruction will be given by Otto w Janssen, architect and engineer. The courses offered are:
 Course Heading plans, 24 les sons This course is open to any one engaged in the building indus try. not carpenters only. who has some knowledge of the three Rs at least. The purpose of the course is to familiarize the student with the purposes, contents Snd use of draw ings (blue prints) made for a building
 Course 2-The steel square, 12 lessons. This course is open to those who have completed course 1. The purpose of this course is to introduce the student to the princi- pies underlying the use of the steel square. This course is of most in- terest to carpenters.
 Course 3-Estimating and speciff- cations, F lessons. This course is open only to those who have com pleted course 1 and it's purpose Is to acquaint the student with the prin- ciples and some methods of estimat- ing and to introduce him to the speci- fications. This course is of interest to all engaged in the building in- dustry
 Obviously, the time devoted to 1 these courses permits the exhaustion l of no one subject, it was pointed out. but the fund of knowledge gained by | the student who applies himself is of no little value to him in his daily occupation

SECRETS WILL OUT.
 CORRIGAN' ONLY q

Girls, the secret is out. The dis guise has been penetrated. The mask has been dropped. Those who saw Lloyd Corrigan play old Judge Weeks in Mile a Minute KendalI' at the Elks theater last week or as the an- tiquarian inventor in the current of- fering of the stock company may have estimated his age at almost anything over 50. The expose of his exact age came yesterday
 With the other members of the company, Corrigan went to the Alamo dining room for dinner yes terday following the matinee. It was to be a birthday dinner for him. but he didn't know it. Not until the cake came in and told it's little story. Pickering over the frosted delight were 21 candles-count them, 21, So that's it, girls, and don't let the white wig and dark lines mislead you any | more. Corrigan is the youngest member of the company, although he is often cast to play the oldest char acters.

prevent one than when we were but 1e years old. When some day we re- ceive a terrible shock because of a fire which destroys the home and maybe even the lives of friends. we shall readily admit that we have been extremely negligent in this matter. Several years ago very highly educated woman did a thing which caused the death of her small son and herself She knew that if she put kerosene on a live coal it would prob ably cause an explosion. But in her hurry she did not take a tiny sec ond of time to look into her stove before she put the paper and wood in for the fire. She poured kerosene on these and immediately the flames shot out of the stove and caught her dress. She screamed and her little year old son ran to help his moth CT who hal fallen unconscious upon the floor; he ran to the carriage of 1 his little brother whom he supposed was also being hurt by the fire. He could not realize that only his mother and himself were being burned. He i caught up his little brother in his arms to protect him from the awful l pain and thus caused him to be burnt also. The mother died two hours la | ter The baby lived a week and then died, and the 4 year old boy suffered l for several months in a hospital and was disfigured for life I have often wondered whether hs father has told him that his mother did a thing she knew was not exactly right because | it took more time to do it rightly. or has he told him that it was only an 1 accident such as happens every day? | Such tragedies do not happen every l day. but are they just accidents? If ] only a little more time and patience weer used so many fires that destroy property and lives could be avoided
 Our states have sme laws concern ing fires, but there are very few ade- | quate ones. During the war when enemies of this country tried to burr United States property they were hunted down and brought under the | law. Now we are taking the lessor l from that which we should. It hurts the United States and it's people just as much now to have citizen sci fire to his home or store as it does tC l have an enemy do it. But the same persistent energy is not used in tho bringing of the incendiary to justice
 In France and Germany, where tn, fire averages are so much lower thar
 those in the United States the per
 sons to whom the cause of a fire i:
 traced are usually punished quite SC verely.
 If a man. in France. is found whose
 neglect or fault caused a fire. tha
 man is responsible for tn damag, done to his neighbors and to his land
 lord for proerty if the property i'
 rented. If man is found who ha:
 set fire to an uninhabited house h'
 may have capital unishment imposed
 upon him.
 If the people Of the United Statei
 would create sentiment for the pun
 ishing of negligence which caused ;
 fire we woulc probably have ap- propriate laws in a few years. I be
 lieve the whole body of citizens nee'
 to be aroused to the unnecessar.

 waste is show nto them. surely 1t vii

CALL THE POLICE FUR ANYTHING THE
 RULE IN PHOENIX

If all the calls that came into po- lice headquarters were as serious as they sounded Phoenix would need force two or three times as big as 1t has, Members of the department held a little informal contest yes terday in telling stories of the strange and often ridiculous appeals that have been received, and the desk sergeant took the prize with this one:
 The other day a woman telephoned the police station and in voice fairly quivering with excitement, asked that a squad be rushed to her home at such and such a number on Blank street, then hung up. Two pa trolmen hurried to the scene inc woman met them at the door and led them to a honeysuckle vine beside the house. It was covered with bees. She demanded that they be removed. explaining she had tried it and had only been stung for her pains
 That was only one of many similar tales, however. Another concerned a woman who asked that an officer be sent out to kill sparrOws who were damaging her flower garden. A thlro person, also a woman, demanded po- lice protection from pigeons who were domiciling themselves in the roof or her residence.
 Men, too, call in with remarkable requests. One notified the depart ment some boys were placing gar haze cans on the street car tracks to the great detriment Of passengers,
 who cannot distinguish between the cans and the cars" It is not known whether he was serious or kldoifls' but policemen incline to the former theory.
 The stories related represent the
 extreme, perhaps, but they are typl- | cal of the variety of problems the police are called upon 10 solve | Neighborhood rows are one of th' [ banes of the policeman's eMstance | as he is often called in to settle | them. while stray cats and dogs arc | another nuisance. The worst of I ! is. many people who call up the DO l lice station do not take time to give l details and the poor officer fares i forth unknowing whether he is tc arbitrate a shooting scrape or a dog l fight. | Naturally. when a call is received | and the informant hangs up the tele 1 phone receiver without pausing tC | explain the nature of the case, DO Iiceman responds anyway. as soon as nossible. for there is always the pos | sibility of real trouble.
 | So if you have occasion to can tht

Don't let bread accumulate and get stale in your bread box. Clean it out every day and put back only that which is fit for table use Put the stale bread in small muslin bag which you have made Tor the nurpose and with a wooden mallet hound it until il is fine. Then put it in wooden box or jar to keep for use when you need bread crumbs. This saves spending time in the midst of cooking to make the crumbs and eliminates bread waste.

Tho statement has been MADE by the super
intendent of school buildings in the city of
New York that many of the buildings would
have to be closed at once If fire laws were
enforced against them they are against pri-
vate buildings. The statement was made in
preface TO a plea for funds to make the school
house as nearly freproof a possible and to
provide more fully for the safety of the chill
dren If fire should occur.
The speaker pointed out that, far from be-
ing closed, the buildings were not only open
but overcrowded with children, so that condj-
tons were doubly menacing. He begged that
steps be taken to correct matters at once,
without waiting for the stimulation of some
awful accident He reminded his hearers, with
gentle sarcasm, that we unfortunately do not
have fires, even with the schools occupied"
The warning is one which need not be
taken to itself by New York alone. In other
cities and rural districts conditions need i'm
proving no less than in the metropolis No
community has a right TO dodge responsibility
for the safety of its school children nor can
any amount of fire drills and training take
the place of adequate protection against fire
in every school house in the land.

Discomfort
BIZ BERTON BRALEY.

Don't be contented; never mind the folk
Who preach eontentment as the highest
virtue,
Who bid you plod along until you croak
AS though ambition were a thing to hurt
you.
Never be satisfied with what you are,
Contentment is phrase by fools invented
Go on and hitch your wagon to a star,
Don't be contented!
II man had been content since time began
We'd still be monkeys from the branches
swinging
And all brave tales of wonder that are
ringing
Down centuries of time, would be as nought;
Progress was ever by unrest fomented,
It's discomfort that stirs the world to thought;
Don't be contented,
Keep wanting more-more money and more
fun,
More education and q broader vision:
Don't be compliment over what you've dona
Keep on-keep on, In spite OF all derisioa:
Seek with hope that vill not be denied.
Each chance for growth that fortune has
presented:
And always keep your mind unsatisned.
Don't be contentedl
