One OF the most pleasing things IN
young people is the habit OF correct
speaking Let US advise all our young
readers to acquire Vt in early life. The
! longer you live the more difficult the
requirement Of correct language is;
and II the golden age Of youth. the
proper season for the acquisition OF
language is passed in abuse, the I'M
fortunate victim, Is very properly
| doomed to talk slang all his life. Mon
ey is not necessary to procure this ed
ucation. Every one has IL in his pow
err He has merely to use the language
which he reads, instead of the slang
which he hears TO form his tastes
from the best poets and authors of
the country. to treasure up choice be-
tween phrases in his memory, and
habituade himself other use. avoid
ing at the same time. that pedantic
precision and bombast which show the
weakness of vain ambition rather than
the polish Of an educated mind.
We are taught so many things in
this world science, literature, his
tory. Our school curriculums are full
of the things that others have learn
ed. yet not one word teaches US how
to live and most OF us spend our en-
tire life running about like frightened
sheep trying to learn and a lot OF us
die without finding out We use all
our energy doing and have none left
for thinking or for being happy. How
much better II would be ii we could
learn to go little slower and stop

BOND ISSUE rHE~BEsT WAY

If it is necessary to provide aldi- tional funds for t.e completion of the Clifton SpringervilIe Highway. and the construction of the Mule Creek Link in the National Highway across New Mexico and Arizona, through our coun- ty, tle funds should be provided in our opinion, by bond issue. in the same manner as the original funds were provided for the cooperative agreement between Greenlee county and the Federal government. A bond issue which would. provide work for the unemployed in our midst at tlis time would be a God send to many families and at the same time accom- plish the completion of Hle two most important road projects in the coun- ty from an % investment standpoint New road construction, by direct tax ation, has long been drowned upon by reason of the fact that those who come after should bear their propor- tion of the cost of permanent inn provements. Under present financia> conditions with the delinquent tax list already the largest the county has ever known, any additional special levy would become an excessive burden.
 Money brought Into sie county at this time by the issuance of long bonds sufficient to complete the Clifton Springerville project, and at the same time furnish employment for unem- ployed citizens and taxpayers of the county on the Mule Creek project, is the easiest and most business like so- lution of our financial difficulties.

PHOENIX, June 1. - Federal Farm Loans are about to become a realiza tion in Ariz. according to Henry L. Eads. secretary-treasurer of the Salt River YalleSsNational Farm Loan as- sociafionr which has been organized under, the. farm loan act passed by congress June 2s, 1916, and made a law July 17~of that year.
 A total of $400.O00 has been al- lotted to Arizona by the Federal Farm bank at Berkely and Mr.. Eads is now preparing the first block of appli- cations from the farmers of this sec tiol. More than 80 applications. have been filed to date, the amounts rang- ing from $1,000 to S10,000.
 This is the first time since the op- eraton of the act that Arizona has had an opportunity to avail itself of it's provisions. Before the war middle western states were the largest bene- ficiaries, for at that time no provision was made for making loans on re- claimed lands against which the gov ernment held first lien.

 There had been only one marriage of president, and John Tyler was a widower. which took ssme of the TO- nance out of the occasion. For the first time a president was to marry in the White House. AS Miss Folsom's mother had given up her home and as her grandfather's house was In mourn ing for his recent death, like the affianced of a sovereign she went to her husbands home to be married.
 The wedding in the blue room was extremely simple, the only guests be- ing a few relatives of the bride and groom and the members of the cabi- net. After the cake had been cut in the state dining room, the bridal pair succeeded in stealing out the back door under cover of darkness to waiting train in switch yard. They had eluded the curious crowds gathered in front of the White House and at the station, but not the ubiquitous press, whose locomotive WAS under steam and in readiness to pursue them, with trainload of reporters, to their honey moon retreat in the Maryland noun. tains. >
 The continued attention of a vigi- 'la1t press wherever the presidential couple went was indignantly resented bbT the. bridegroom, who hetly de. .nounced the "ghoulish glee" with which his family affairs were discussed. More malicious, more cruel were the imprint ed tales which were consistently circu- lated as long as he remained in public Mrs. Cleveland Is said on one ecca- sion to have given a pathetic hint of what tine strokes aimed at the presi- dent through her little ones meant to a mother.

A s THE Democrats had lost power
 "A under bachelor president, James Buchanan, they regained it after a quarter of century under another bachelor president. That strange CO., incidence was brought to an end by Cleveland's marriage in the second year of his administration.
 From the day Cleveland entered the executive mansion at Albany, gossip busily made matches for him with one after another Of the eligible women who appeared at his receptions. A spe- cial favOrite of those persistent ru- mors was the pretty widow of one of his old law partners, Oscar Folsom, whose home was one of the few homes In Buffalo where this unsocial person had been in the habit of visiting. It was not suspected that all along his own choice had been the daughter rather than the mother.
 Mrs. Folsom and her daughter were guests of the president and Miss Cleve- land in their first month at the White House. Even the. wiseacres of Wash ington did not guess that the beautiful young girl who was present at a re- ception-all in white-would in anoth. CT year be the bride of her host.
 Miss Folsom had graduated and was travelling in Europe when the country was set in f1utter by the announce ment of her engagement. She return ed home to meet such an ordeal as no other American girl of twenty-five ever has faced. Her name was on every tongue in America; her portrait was in every paper, and the press boats

SETTLERS BAND THEMSELVES TOGETHER

Banded together for the avOwed purpose of preventing any interfer- ence with tie progress of reclamation in Arizona, the Arizona State Recla- nation Assocation comprising q pro- jects and representing total of 902, 900 acres of land has been organized. A determined and we'll organized cam paign in behalf of House Bill 139 is planned, and against the certain in- terests whidl are attempting to de. feat these measures through the fil- ing of referendum petitions.
 These bills were passed by the last legislature as a. means of helping the struggling settlers to put water on the'- lands throuSl the organiza. tion of irrigation districts havng the status of municipal corporations, and thus prevent speculative interests from securing strangle hold upon water and power rights which by right belong to the people. ,,
 The projects in course of organiza- tion or construction which have joined forces in this forward movement are located in every county of the state save one They include San Carlos in Pinal county, the Auxiliary Eastern and the Agua Fria irrigation projects in Maricopa county. the Black Canon Rio Perco project in Navajo county the Bouse-Lotus Valley project in Yuma county, sie Cave Creek project the San Pedro Valley and the San Simon Valley projects An Cochise county, the Date Creek and William son Valley projects in Yavapai county, the Gila Valley. Water Users, Associ- ation in Graham county, the Hay Lake project in Coc0nino county, tle Little Colorado River. project in. Navajo coIntyss the Palmas-Mlohawk Valley and the Sentinel project in Yuma county, the Paradise-Verde, the Queen Creek and the Walnut Grove projects in Maricopa county, the Santa Cruz Valley project In Pima county, Gle Upper Gila Valley project in Greenlee county, the Upper Santa Cruz River project in Santa Cruz county; from which it will be seen that the Arizona Reclamation association is, in truth statewide organization. and not formed in the Interest of some parti- cular project, and that the benefits of this oganization will be state wide
 In connection with. and as part of the development of these irrigation projects there will be developed a maximum of over 100, 900 hydroelectric horse power available for eig. tt to nine months each year, and 30. 900 hydro. electric horse power during three to focr months.

CHAPTER X-Continued.

and fu!s in the corner of a small room In which were several green warriors, and bending over me was an ancient and ugly female.
 As I opened my eyes she turned to one of the warriors, saying:
 "He will live, o Jed"
 "'Tis well," replied the one so ad- dressed, rising and approaching my couch, ''he should render rare sport for the great games"
 And now as my eyes fell upon him, I saw that he was no Thark, for his ornaments and metal were not of that horde. He was huge fellow, terribly scared about the face and chest, and with one broken tusk and missing ear. Strapped on either breast were human skulls and depending from these a number of dried human hands.
 His reference to the great games of which I had heard so much while among the Tharks convinced me that I had but jumped from purgatOry into gIhenna.
 1 was strapped securely to as wild and unmanageable a thOat as l had ever seen, and, with a mounted war rior on either side to prevent the beast from bOlting we rode forth at furi- OuS pace in pursuit of the column. Just before dark we reached the main body of troops shortly after they had made camp for the night. l was inn mediately taken before the leader. who proved to be the jeddak of the hordes of Warhoon.
 Like the jed who had brought me, he was frightfully scared, and also decorated with the breastplate of hu man skulls and dried dead hands which seemed to mark all the greater warriors among the WarhOOns. as well as to indicate their awful ferocity, which greatly transcends even that of the Tharks
 The jeddak, Bar COmas, who was comparatively young, was the object of the fierce and jealous hatred of his captured me, and I could not but note the almost studied efforts which the latter made to affrOnt his superior.
 He entirely omitted the usual for maj SalutatiOn as we entered the pres ence of the jeddak, and as he pushed me roughly before the ruler he eX- claimed in a loud and menacing voice ::
 'I have brought a strange creature wearing the metal of a Thark whom 1t is my pleasure to have battle with a wild thOat at the great games"
 "He will die as Bar Comas, your jeddak, sees fit, if at all," replied the young ruler, with emphasis and dignity.
 If at all?" roared Oak Kova. "By the dead hands at my throat but he shall die, Bar COmas. No maudlin weakness on your part shall save him, O, would that WarhOOn were ruled by real jeddak rather than by a wa ter-hearted Weakling from whom even old Dak KOva could tear the metal with his bare hands"
 Bar Comas eyed the defiant and in subordinate chieftain for an instant, his expression one of naughty, fear less contempt and hate, and then with out drawing a weapon and without uttering a word he hurled himself at the throat of his defamer.
 I never before had seen two green Martian warriors battle with nature s
