PROHIBITION TOPIC
 IF DEBATE TON|GHT

Keen interest is being manifested in the debate to be held this evening at the Colored Methodist chunch, Seventh and Jefferson streets, by the Phoenix Literary and Debating society. The subject for debate is: Resolved. That Prohibition is a Failure Cleo M. Roberts and Ben James, Jr., will up hold the affirmative, and the negative will be presented by James Rosser and Earle Johnson
 The young men who will discuss this subject have given much thought and study to conditions in Arizona since booze has been abolished and the af- firmative claims it will show beyond the shadow of a doubt that prohibition is indirectly responsible for the gen eral depression. On the other hand, the negative claims it will show, and prove by indisputable evidence, that conditions would be ten times worse were it not for the fact that the na- ton is dry. The public is invited to attend the meeting. which will begin at o'clock. A short musical program will precede the debate.

SHAWlS CAME FIRST

The shawl Is the mother of all clothes. Before scissors were invented all humans, who wore anything at all, wore shawls The colder the climate the larger and heavier the shawl. In the tropics the shawl was of fig-leaf size. The summer shawl is our sheet The toga, and finally the clothes of to- day emerged from the original shawl Even as late as our Civil war men wore shawls for overcoats.

WILLIAM BROCK

Private William Brock, who died in
F. ance in November, 1919, was buried
"a Brooks Mill last Sunday morning
a II o'clock, the funeral services be-
i conducted by the Rev. F. M.
Clnnon.
Mr.. Brock was son of Mr.. and
N-rs. Joel w. Brock, and was little
more than boy when called to the
colors.
ir. Brock saw service on the bat
tletields and served with distinction
as a brave young soldier, but the
very day that the armistice was sign
ed he developed influenza, which
was followed by pneumonia, and the
noble young life soon passed to its
heavenly reward.
Mr.. Brock, before he died, realiZ-
ing that he could not live, requested
that his body lie brought back to the
old home church yard for buriel, and
his parents and relatives feel more
conifoited in the fact that he now
sleeps beneath the sod Of his own
homo among his own people.
The body, escorted by a young SOL
der, reached Mcfarland Saturday af-
ternoon.
The casl;et was draped with the
American colors and the large crowd
attending the funeral attested the
popularity Of the young man among
his own people.
Mr.. Brock was not only brave
soldier of his own country, but he
had also enlisted under the banner of
the Cross and was a soldier of the
Master.
laGeed, it was said of this noble
young man, ale has fought good
fight, he has kept the faith" X

SOME FIGURES FROM
THE COUNTY TREASURER

want to say in the beginning am
in favor of water-works for two reas-
sons. First because I'don't think we
could do anything that would be of
any more benefit to the town. Second
because think the town is able to af-
ford it. / will admit we have been hit
hard by the financial crisis, also by
fires.
We have S2S8,OOO worth of proper
ty on the tax books and 9 mill levy
will raise $5,472. The interest on
bonds will be $4,000 and a sinking
fund of 1896 year will retire the
bonds. Therefore, we will have to raise
$5,395 each year for 80 years in ord
er to retire the bonds. We pay each
year in insurance about $4,000 and it
has been estimated that we would save
10 per cent. on this amount which
would be $4,000. So you can see after
all our expense each year would only
be $685. and / know we can afford
this.
| have the assessed value of every
ones property in town and also have
the per cent he would save on insur-
ance and would be glad to show each
one what it would cost him.
Now, let's all be good citizens, lay
prejudice aside and if we think it will
help us, vote for it. On the other
hand, if we do not, vote against it.
If We start now there will be no tax
to pay until the fall of 1922.
Our town, with the system propos-
cd, VIII have pure water and proper
sewrage, thereby decreasing sickness
and saving medical bills.
We will then have adequate fire
protection, the insurance rate will be
reduced; tie estimates made by eX-
pcrts show that the whole town can
have water and proper sewerage for
sum not exceeding the proposed
pond issue. j. A. Welsh.

MANY DIFFICULTIES IN
STOPPING BOOZE TRADE

An outline of the difficulties pre-
sented in enforcing the National Pro
hibition Act is presented by John r
Kramer, federal prohibition COM
missioner, in an article in the national
organ Of the American Legion, the
American Legion Weekly.
NJ. El-a"er classifes his troubles
under seven hoods, as follows: The
border rch'h.tion problem; the illicit
di,tilii"G of whisllcy; the provision for
the use of Intoxicating liquors in the
manufacture of patent, patented and
proprietary medicines, hair tonics, ex-
tracts and the like; the existence of
large quantities of liquor in bond; the
use of alcohol in tAe manufacture of
cereal beverages; home brewing and
distil!ing, and the formation of re-
liable organizations of prohibition
agents.
Despite these difficulties, Mr.. Kra-
mer says that the work of enforce
ment is becoming easier and that the
prohibition authorities are gaining
ground all the while.
"In a comparatively short time,"
Mr.. Kramer declares, 1.-The attitude of
people toward liquor will have SO
changed that it will be an easy matter
to carry out the provisions of the
law"
