LUMBER OPERATIONS
 IN STATE REPORTED
 25PER CENT NORMAL

Tt would be conservative to say that the approximate perctneage of present operations to normal in the lumber industry is 25 per cent, and there will be no perceptible increase or decrease within the next 50 days"
 The above paragraph is a cross section of the replies received by F. R. Mines. Arizona immigration com missioner in his survey of the lumber industry of the state, made at the re- quest of Glen NJ. Coe, director of the mountain division department of labor. Denver.
 The Arizona Lumber and timber company at Flagstaff reports that the mills of the north are producing about g per cent of normal, and prices are so lew and sales below the cost of production, that the pros poets are gloomy for the next few months. In all probability the next 60 to 90 dasy will see, if anything, a decreased production.'
 The McGonigle Lumber and Devel- opment company answered in part as follows: 1.-TWO of the mills in this vicinity may run steadily this win ter, barring stormy weather, and we will run part of the time, but I think the other two mills will be closed for the winter. In normal times the mills in Flagstaff often work extra time. but have a good stock of lumber on hand at present and I do not think they will undertake to increase their output
 L. w. Shipley of the Apache Rail- way company estimates lumber oper- ations at 25 per cent of normal The Apache Lumber company mill at Cooley closed down last year.
 The Flagstaff Lumber company has been operating practically to ca pacity the entire year. according to J. c. Dolan, vice president The mill of the Saginaw and Manistee Lumber company at Williams has been closed down for about 90 days. The Flag staff Lumber company contemplates a reduction in its working forces within the next three months.
 Building operations throughout the state have declined in sympathy with the general slump. AS a result activ- ity in that line has been confined almost entirely to the erection of homes. It Is estimated that in this industry conditions are about 40 per cent of normal.

3,0O0 ACRES STATE LAND ARE ADDED ID
 ARMY CAMP GROUND

Three thousand acres of state land adjoining Camp Harry J. Jones at Douglas will be used by United States soldiers for maneuvers and additional camp ground, according to Rudolph Kuchler. state land commissioner. who returned yesterday from the bor- der town. Mir. Kuchler was called in conference by the chamber of com merce for the purpose of making an investigation of lands with view of making is possible for the troops to acquire the additional property.
 Believing it for the best interests of Douglas, the parties holding state lands agreed to relinquish their leas- es upon payment for their improve ments. Mir. Kuchler said that the CO., operative spirit of the homesteaders and lessees, the civic organizations and citizens was remarkable.
 Plans are under way for use of the increased army acreage. In a short time the state land will be made a part of Camp Harry J. Jones.
 MT. Kuchler in his weeks absence in addition to visiting Cochise coun- ty was in Pinal, Pima and Santa Cruz counties Investigating applications for loans, making land selections, and looking into conflicts between les sees. Everywhere, he said, he found a notable improvement in conditions,

where ''open house" was being ob- served throughout the day. Parents same with gentle curiosity con- corning the place where their chil- dren were being educated and went away with expressions of astonish- ment. To most of them the modern institution with it's group of six buildings proved a revelation of the wonderful strides which have been made in educational lines since the days when father went to school.
 Following an inspection of the buildings the guests were served in the new cafeteria which had been decorated for the occasion by the Parent Teachers association mem bers. Each guest piled Up the tray with individual selections from an amazing assortment tempting viands and carried the load from the coun- ters to one of the tables, just as the pupils do schoolday moons.
 Music, dancing, addresses and a dramatic reading served to give an enjoyable diversity to program pre- scented in the high school auditorium as a conclusion to the day of "ope1 house."
 The Rev. Arthur Lee Odell, one of the principal speakers on this pro- gram, advised:
 Be true to your children by giv- ing them all phases of education, home, school and church.
 Every true father and mother be- lieves their child is entitled to the very best advantages available" he said, and proceeded to show how the parent could cooperate with the schools in giving the child better op portunities and a broader outlook in life.
 Declaring that one purpose of the high school was to develop in the student the power of appreciation, Dr. Odell reverted to the feeling of fear which possessed the ancients who dwelt in caves when they heard thunder and saw lightning and com- pared this feeling to the apprecia- ton which the modern day student has for power and beauty of the bright streaks of light which flash across the sky.
 Must Teach Appreciation
 We do not W mt our children to go through the world cringing and afraid of things" he said. We want to preciate the wonders about them that
 
 the environment of the high school inspires and creates an appreciation for the beautiful, for human life, for Divine power"
 But to teach appreciation without furnishing the means to realize those things which are to be desired would be an injustice, Dr. Odell declared.
 "The high school has solved the problem by installing vocational training into their course" he said, "so that the student can learn to work and acquire these great things in life which they have been taught to desire.''
 Another phase of life which the high school student must learn. the speaker declared, is the obligation every man owes to his fellow man and his community.
 A Citizens Obligation
 "A mans true worth is measured by his value to others and to his community" he said, and referred to the man who moves into a com

F. c. F1eischmann of the Fleisch- mann Yeast company of California is in the city arranging to open a state distributing branch for his firm here. No location has been decided upon yet but several are being con- sidered, according to Mir. Fleisch- mann.
 At present great quantities of Fleisehmann yeast are being shipped into the various towns and cities of Arizona from Chicago. In order to give the people of the state better service Phoenix will be made our fu- ture distributing point for the state,s Mir.

 That business conditions in the western states are much better than in the east was the opinion expressed by Mir. Fleischmann, who has just made business tour of the principal cities on both sides of the Rockies. He found business especially favor able in Denver and Salt Lake City and said that cities along the Pacific coast were showing renewed activity

 In concluding his address Rev. Odell stressed the religious side of a child's education.
 T am not speaking of any partic- ular religious denomination nor of putting the church into the school" he said, but am asking parents to cooperate in developing this very important phase of a child's life Those who have done the most good in the world have had great religious convictions. Be true to your boys and girls by giving them all phases of education and rightly preparing them for life instead of letting them slip through school with a one-sided preparation

 The progl am opened with a se- lecticn by the high school orchestra followed by a brief introductory talk by Prof. D. F. Jantzen, principal of the school. Other members included selections by the boys glee club, pi- ano selections by Helen Cotton, a reading entitled "The Spell of the Yukon selections by the faculty quartette and captivating "Cavotte" by six girl members of the physical education department.

BENEFITS IF HIGH

Benefits which a community de- rives from its high school and its re- sponsibility toward the school were points emphasized by Claude D. Jones of the high school faculty in a talk given at the monday luncheon of the Business and Professional Women's club in the lobby of the Y. M. c. A. yesterday. In presenting the program the club did it's bit in recognition of National Education week.
 MT. Jones dwelt briefly on the en- larged opportunities which the pres ent day high school furnishes for edu- cation and training of future citizens, as well as the preparation given pu- pills for college and university. In closing he made plea for construc- tive criticism.
 Miss Anna Marie Luke contributed two vocal selections. T Hear a Thrush at Eve" by Cadman, and an Irish melody, which were enthusias- tically received. She was accom- panied by William Orth of the Ari- zona School of Music. The program was in charge of Mrs. Sadie Flay. Miss Winnie Wise and Miss Thelma Greer.
