INTERMEDIATE POINTS
SHOULD BE SERVED

Some days ago the corporation
commission by vote OF a majority
refused to allow the stage that runs
III tn Phoenix to Florence to serve
intermediate points.
Now there Is good paved high
way from Phoenix to Tempe, Mesa
and Chandler and one company only
has the stage privilege. This ex-
elusive service costs about double
what 1t did during days OF competi-
tion and dirt roads.
Loren Vaughn, commissioner, rem.
dered a dissenting opinion which
will meet with general appreciation
OF all people who believe in the
, square deal and who are opposed to
special privileges. Commissioner
Vaughn. says:

p,soRpsRLy SCHOOL CHILDREN

A man who lives near big school
house In another city was telling
friends here the other day Of his ex'
periences with disorderly school chill
dren. He said that every few days he
has to go out and clean up his front
lawn. removing the paper bags and
other refuse scattered along near the
walk by the school children.
These young people, he said, have
a recess OF about half hour, and a
large part OF them go down to the
stores and fruit and candy stands.
They come back from these raids
munching their provender. and throw
Ing the paper wrappers and boxes in
to the street and on the lawns.
This man lives in a nice neighbor-
hood where people take pride in the
appearance OF their home places. But
no matter how frequently they clean
up, II s only a short time before the
litter appears from the same source.
Complaints OF this kind are some
times heard in regard 20 the young
people OF Stafford. n householders
are annoyed in this way, they should
not be too good natured about It. They
should refer the matter to the princi.
pals OF the schools from whence such
disorderly children come.
II young people get the idea that
they can throw litter around any.
where, they win be disorderiy in their
places OF employment when they get
TO work, Business men do not want
helpers who have this careless way.
II would be valuable lesson to these
young folks. II they could be sharply
reprimanded for such slovenly habits.
No matter how much money you
spend on street improvements and
cleaning. II people get the idea that
paper waste can be thrown into the
streets. the town will have q slum ap-
pearance. The selling of small eat.

CONTROLLING DANGEROUS
NATIONS

Some people will raise the Ques
tion, In view of the probable reduction
OF naval armament, what can be done
TO control nations that show danger
GUS tendencies. suppose Japan, they
say, should violate her pledges and
practically annex northern China.
The plan for reduction of navies
might Just suit her, since II would
make it impossible for the United
States OF England to interfere.
Thus Japan could eventually build
a great commercial empire on Chinese
territory, and possibly by organizing
Chinese troops. develop these subju'
gated people into threatening MILL
tary force.
To which II can be said, that II
seems clear that the American poo
pie would never send an army and
feet to Asia merely TO secure better
trade privileges there. But II is con-
ceivable, IL they felt at some future
time that a hideous wrong was being
perpetrated on a defenseless nation,
constituting threat to the peace OF
the world, that they might send an
army across to fight against such q
scheme of conquest, just as they In.
tervened to help put down Germany
Such a possibility. however, Is so
very remote. that II does not seems
wise to spend several hundred million
dollars year getting ready for II.
IL Is going to pay the nations to play
fair. No country of any Importance
has so far repudiated its debts. be-
cause its financiers have known that
II they did, they could never borrow
any more money. SO II Is doubtful
II any great nation ever again tears
up its treaties the way Germany did.
Statesmen have learned that such .
course costs more than II comes 10.
Should such catastrophe ever take
place. II is probable that the offending
nation could be disciplined by some
form OF commercial retaliation, rather
than the terribly costly procesB OF
war And II seems worth while TO
give Japan a chance, 10 see what she
will do. before other peoples assume
that she will violat her pledge.

To find life easy you must develop
right habits that make life automatic.
Men who develop right attitudes to-

1t is foolish to imagine that you will

without embarrassment is to rise with
the business to where you won't have
to do the physical tasks that require
young shoulders. Let youth hustle

Panama Hats.

Most of the so-called Panama hats
are made in Ecuador The material
is called paja toquilla and comes from
a palm two or three meters high. The
leaves are cut just as they are about
to unfold, the veins taken out and the
fiber remaining is dipped for a few
minutes in boiling water to which a
little lemon juice is added for bleach
ing purposes. Each leaf has approx
mately 80 strands about % centime-
ters in length, although the best grade
reaches so centimeters. The hats can
be woven only during the part of the
day when the humidity is greatest,
since the straw of the best quality is
not dampened. A man working six
hours day completes an ordinary hat
in six or seven days, but on very
fine one he spends month and half; ;
it is the labor, therefore, which makes
the hats expensive. The most famous
are those of Monte Cristi; they sur
pass all others in fineness, lightness
and perfection.

QUEEN CHOSE PEASANT MATE
One of the Favorite Stories of the
Many Found in Folklore of
Bohemia.

Bohemian folklore contains many
interesting and inspiring stories,
but all of them express the national
feeling and the aspirations of SUBJ
ject people for independence. Now
that the World war established
Czechoslovakia as a free state, the
national consciousness has redOubled
the interest in Bohemian history and
fiction.
A favOrite story is of the Princess
Libussa, youngest and wisest of Prince
Kroks three daughters. She was in
telligent, with perfect morals and ac-
tive in deeds for the welfare of her
people. Endowed as a seeress, the
people chose her to be their ruler.
Libussa in return asked the people to
choose their king. They waived this
privilege, and the queen sent them far
away to find a young peasant, who
would be blowing in a field with two
oxen, whose spots the queen described.
The messengers brought back this man
and he became king
Together Libussa and her husband
founded Prague (Praha), the queen
propheSying the city would become
world famous. The peasant king de-
fined its limits by throwing up fur
row with his pillow. His shoes were
worn by kings for generations as a
pledge that they would protect the
interests of the peasants.
