MEXICAN ENGINEER
 STUDIES BIC DAM

As representative of the Sonora government. Ruben F. Morales, a young Engineer. has been here for several days makhlg a study of the Roosevelt dam in the course of rrep- aration for the construction of a great dam on the Sonora river rear the city of Ures. Mir. Morales has spent several days at Roosevelt and he has been struck by the topograph- ic similarity of that damsite to the site on the Sonora.
 The width of the Nprge is about the same. The Ures dam will have a height of 1s0 feet It will not im- pound quite so much water as the Roosevelt dams but II will have a capacity of 47,000.000 cubic meters and win be sufficient for the irriga- ton of 10000 hectares or 100, 900 acres
 The Sonora government has ap- propriated already $2,500,000 for the project, which it is estimated will cost about $6,000,000 Mex. Labor, however. is much cheaper there. As in the case of the Roosevelt dam. il ie intended to. make cement on the ground. where there is an abundarice of material, especially of hydraI1C lime of the best quality.

EVEN THE SAINTS
 CAN BE CHEATED
 WITH ANY SUCCESS

An old friend dropped in yesterday, seated himself on a corner of the editorial desk and began talking about religion, occult matters and early times in Arizona of which he was a part. His observations di- vested of certain frills so as to leave it in accord with the third command ment were substantially as follows:
 I'm in no way superstitious but now and then in the life of most of us something happens that we do not understand that sets us to wondering and we get a notion that there are more things in this world than our vain philosophy dreams of.
 Several years ago I was stopping at Nogales and while was there a fiesta was held at Magdalena, So- nora, in honor Of Saint Francis Xavier. There was always a good deal of liveliness at these fiestas- games of all sorts. and I and Dick, friend. went down to be present at the opening. We went principally to see what we could do with the games.
 "We first went to the cathedral where there is, large effigy of St. Francis. Thiseffigy is said to have come to Magdalena in mysterious manner It is said that one morn- | ing along in the latter part of the sixteenth century priest standing | in front of the church saw burrc

HARDING APPROVES
 SCHOOLBOY JURY'S DECISION 0N OWLS
IRepubIican A. P. Leased wlrel


 WASHINGTON. July 10-President Harding has approved the finding of the schoolboys' jury which decided that the owls in the White House grounds may live. Interest in the subject was widespread among na- ture loving children all over the country. hundreds of whom submitted briefs to tile American Forestry as- sociation, which arranged the trial. The president today addressed his approval to Jimmie Bradley, Wash in 5ton schoolboy, and members of John Burroughs club, who headed the jury in the following letter:
 My uear Jimmie: Your conclusion is that the balance is in favor even of the least desirable of the birds, and I am inclined to agree with you. For, why should these birds have been put there, unless to perform some useful services on the whole, I think we will grant them a reprieve. I think your John Burroughs club must be doing a useful work I hope you will continue your nature studies and that later on when you all become men and women you will be as much disposed to apply the rules of equity and justice as you have been in this case.
 Most sincerely yours,

OPPORTUNITIES FOR EDUCATION OFFERED
 YOUNG MEN BY NAVY

Navy schools are awaiting young men from Arizona and the oppor- tunity was never better than it is today. Volunteers can lay the foun- dation of their future with conditions and inducements that are unsur- passed by any institution or organ ization in this or any other country.
 Special inducements are now being made for the young American who desires to become an expert musician or a licensed pharmacist. Schools for these two professions are now open
 to men on their first enlistments, and this is an excellent opportunity for those who wish to grasp it. The course of instruction is complete and the best instruments and methods are used throughout by expert instruc-
 tors. It is not case of "all work and no play" as Uncle Sam believes in plenty of good recreation for his men, and accordingly there is base
 ball, basketball, football. race-boat- ing, track meets, contests on the rifle range. cross-country hikes. boxing. swimming and many other good. clean sports that are essential to the young mans happiness.
 The modern man O. war is an up- to-date American city and it requires all the latest devices of science to keep the ships in operation and in fighting condition. It is needless to state that all the trades and profes-
 sions that are employed in every
 modern city are aboard every ship of the American navy, and all the latest
 means that science can provide are in use. Macbinists. electricians, en- ginemen, blacksmiths, coppersmiths, boilermakers. welders, moulders, ship filters, plumbers, carpenters. pattern makers, paintefs, printers. opticians, photographers. accountants, radio operators, cooks. bakers, and on up to the extent that there are men under the course of instruction for any one of 55 different trades and professions. This gives the young man a wide choice that is not given by any of the largest institutions that command a large instruction fee.
 While under instruction the ports of the world are open for the sailors exploration. The pay is from s33 to $44 month upon entrance to the navy and goes up to $126 a month.
