A BEAUTIFUL ALLEGoRY.

There is a very old story that ia
always worth being repeated once
more.
Tophronius, wise teacher, would
not suffer even his grown up sons
and daughters to associate with
those whose conduct was not pure
and upright.
Dear father" said the gentle
Eulalia to him one day, when he
forbade her in company with her
brother to VISIT the volatile Lucin.
da, dear father, you must think
us very childish il you imagine we
should be exposed to danger by it."
The father took in silence a dead
coal from the hearth and reached it
to his daughter, saying: ut will not
burn you, my child, take it."
Eulalia did so, and behold! her
delicate white hand was soiled and
blackened, and as it CHANGED, her
white dress also.
1--WE cannot be too careful in han.
ding GOALS" said Eulalia in vexation
Eyes, truly" said her father, "you
see, my child, that Goals, even if they
don't burn, blacken. So it is with the
company of the vicious"

When Washington went to the Con.
gross of 1774 at Philadelphia he ex-
amined the fire engines in use in that
city and on his return to Congress the
following year he bought from one
Glib small fourth-class engine for
eighty pounds and ten shillings. Just
before he set out for Dorchester
Heights to become communicating
chief he sent the engine to the COM
pany in Alexandria. !,
In 1776 the Sun Fire Company was
organized. and the only thing that pre-
vented General Washington from TAX
ing part in the many water battles
between the two companies was the
fact that he was fighting the fiercer
battles Of his country-against the
ruthless British enemy.
In the last year Of General Wash.
ington's life a fire occurred near the
old market house in Alexandria as he
was riding down King street, followed
by his servants, also on horseback. He
saw the Friendship Company poorly
manned. Riding up to well.dressed
group of men standing on the street
he called:
why are you idle there, gentlemen!

ters."
He threw the bride of his horse to
his servant, leaped off and seized the
brakes of the engine, followed by a
crowd that had kindled to enthusiasm
at his words.

Washington as commander-in-chief
of the Revolution, Washington as first

But the great father of his country
was also like Franklin, many-sided
man-statesman, soldier, surveyor,

Think of the most dignified character
in the worlds history pulling a fire
engine through the streets Of town!

GIRLS AND VACATION.

In the provision which is being
made for children to spend their
vacations outside of the city, in
organized camps, scant attention is
paid to the girls. 1t is true that there
are some camps for girls, but for the
most part they are prohibitive in
price, notes the New World. Probab-
ly too much exaggeration is put on
the fact that girls must have more
conveniences, and less "roughing it,
than boys. However well founded
this may be, some sort of recreational
facilities should be offered to school
girls other than those under public
or semipublic charities. The girl
is more heavily taxed by her school
year than the boy, because, on the

average, she takes her work more
seriously, and does it better. Her
physique is more depleted, and she
is at an age when rest and recreation
are more imperative for her than for
her brother All sorts Of camps for
boys, under Catholic auspices, have
sprung up throughout the United
States, where board and transporta.
ton does not average more than ten
dollars a week. Even though a few
dollars should be added to this cost,
there is no reason why the girl
should be neglected. How this is to
be done is another matter, but that
it should be done, there can hardly
be any controversy.

The Yavapai county court house will soon resemble a regular To- story metropolitan building. This was the forecast of activities at the office of the board of supervisors yesterday, where R. E. Donovan, clerk, was laying out a new directory to the building.

The directory is made of stout wood, and is enclosed in glass. covering. It will be placed, upon its completion some time late this week or early next week, either in the vestibule of the north entrance to the court house, or on the right-hand wall just inside the door.
