BOYS ID LEAVE NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR TWO WEEK SUMMER CAMP

After weeks of preparation, the Y. M. C. A. camp plans are practically completed. The leaders have been meeting for six weeks taking a course in camR leadership and planning every detail. The athletic program has been fully completed and the social program plans are in shape. The Sunday services have been as signed to the various leaders and programs of interest have been planned Sunday school will be con ducted as in the city, followed by service under the trees. The boys themselves will conduct the service with the exception of he addresses, which will be made by the director or by a visitor if the camp is fortunate in having one who can do it.
 Registrations for the camp have far exceeded expectations. The origi7 nal plans as laid by the cabinet pro vided for about 15 boys, and 97 have already paid part or all of their fees. There were exactly 100 at last years camp and this year will apparently exceed that number.
 The baggage car is standing at the foot of Second avenue on the Santa Fe tracks and will be loaded with the groceries. tents, benches, tables, cooking dishes, and everything else needed to make a, camp, besides the bedding, cots and other things be- longing to the boys. There will be only one baggage car this year, so that all equipment for both camps will be taken up Saturday with the advance guard which goes on ahead of the others to pitch the tents and
 get the camp ready. The following are going as advance guard: Fred McNefl, Milton Morse, Darrell Parker Sam Stewart, Clyde Miller, Phil Rice J. D. Sawyer, Phil Hart, James Ror- ex, G. l.. Foster, the assistant direc- tor, and E. C. Reeves.
 The other campers will leave the Y NJ. c. A. Wednesday morning at { o'clock and return on the 14th. Those going on the second session will leave the morning of the 14th and return the 2Sth.

All, BUT THE NEXT NIGHT VISIT WILL
 BE THE THIRTEENTH

Burglars on Wednesday night paid their regular visit to the Ford stores on East Washington street. It was the twelfth occasion of their forced and unwelcome entrance to that eS tablishment and while not exactly a surprise to the proprietor on account of the frequency and regularity of their previous visits it added to his veyations, amounting, as these re-
 at7 bur- iaries Go. to no incon-
 G sam.
 But .Ir 70 l is consoled by one thought. The next time will be the thirteenth and if i'll luck fostered by the memory of the twelve previous visits will befall the burglar on the next occasion, the proprietor will be greatly repaid in satisfaction if not in money or goods.
 Concerning the most recent robbery Mir. Ford had the following to say:
 Marking the twelfth point on the list of casualties or, I better say, de- pletions of Ford's treasury, thieves pried open the back doors of the Washington street store and ap parently confined operations exclu- sively to guns and cartridges, al though very probably much other stock was included. Twelve is a straight dozen, thirteen is a baker s dozen and claimed to be a very un- lucky aggregation. I allude to this before notifying my next visitors that preparations will be made to head them for that happy land where earthly loot is unnecessary on the thirteenth inning.
 ''It is my firm belief that many of these robberies are effected by boys. r., col nf % oaIi guns and a raft of cartridges for small bore weapons rends to the con viction that the youthful thief made this selection. There are some of the toughest youths in Phoenix that ever went unhung, and this applies to both Anglo Saxon and Mexicans. These young boys, naturally of a pilfering disposition, learned to begin life stealing all articles such as tools, boards and boxes left in the rear of stores and residences, and are the bane of ones life. They realize that the law protects them from individ- ual force and they know how trou blesome and distasteful it is to make complaint to the police, so they are really secure and grow bolder with age.
 Not to be presumptuous and sim ply as matter of protection. I sug- gest to those in authority to use se- verity in punishment Nothing but fear of vengeance will effect results If we prescribed the old English whipping post and in public admin. istered the lash as recommended by all the leading police and detective bureaus, crime tpetty crimes). would decrease.

MT and Mrs. William J. Seyfert of the Arizona Apartments will leave tomorrow morning for a visit to Germany the old home of Mir Sey- iert, which he has not seen since the summer of 1914. shortly before the breaking out of the World War.

 At the time of the outbreak of the war Mir Seyfert was in England. Like most Germans who happened to be -here at that unfortunate time, he found it difficult to get away Germans were generally suspected of being spies, and MT. Seyfert was ap- prehended on that suspicion. Later he was released. but was not allowed to return 10 Germany or to any of the allied countries or to any neutral country from which he could likely find his way back to Germany.
 Accordingly. he came to the United States and immediately came into the Southwest Arriving in Phoenix he was for time connected with the proof-reading department of The Republican
