PROPOSED CANADIAN LAW WOULD PREVENT
 ASBESTOS EXPORT

GLOBE. Ariz. April 14-Of interest
 to owners and operators of asbestos
 property in Arizona is the announce
 ment that the Canadian government is
 considering the enactment of law
 to prohibit exports of asbestos fibre. The effect of such a law would be
 to put mills for the manufacture of asbestos in the United States out of
 business, as this country draws. al most all it's supply or raw asbestos
 from Canada. Canada's object is to force American manufacturers to re-
 move their plants to the Province of Quebec. and give Canada a monopoly of the industry.
 This move on the part of CaEada, if carried out, would, however, greatly
 stimulate asbestos mining in Arizona, and particularly in Gila county. as this is the only important asbestos field in the United States thus far dis
 covered. and American manufacturers
 would have to depend for their sup plies of asbestos fiber 0n Arizona Considerable doubt is expressed that Canada will carry out this scheme
 as the dominion is dependent upon the United States for very many of our products needed by our northern
 neighbors. and to persist in such a
 course would inevitably result in re-
 taliatory legislation by this country.

 Just how much can be accomplish ed by ambitious school children with a competent musician in charge, was demonstrated las, Sunday at Tomb stone when the students of the county seat high school gave their annual school orchestra and treble clef con cert under the direction of C. F.. Til ford, superintendent of schools, and E. Edna Brady, eighth grade teacher. in charge of the singing. Although the majority of those who took part in the concert had not had one min ute's acquaintance with an instru- ment of any kind before the first Of the present school year, the orches- tra made an astounding impression on the Tombstone and Douglas people who were present at the concert. The rendition of the "Children's Sym. phony." the last number on the pro. gram. was so pleasing that Director Tilford was compelled to respond with an encore. although he had de cided tha; the program was too long to repeat any of the numbers and held steadfast to his decision through out the first part Of the program.
 The children who composed the or chestra are: First violins. Mary Orr
 Henry Johnson. Isaac Tracey; second yioiins, Andrew Orr, Billy Fowler Paul Chadwick, cellos, Clara Johnson Olive Holland: bass. Virginia Mars | clarinet. John Barr; comets. Wilma Reed, Milton McPherson; trombone

 low better mind his own business and keep his suggestions to himself? Well. cut off the communication right here il you see fit. and tel, your friends to explore the waste baseKt for the rest.
 lt is unfortunate that the wonder ful. all year climate of the place can not be better known. I am almost ready to say that the place owes it to , the world. but in connection with that comes another matter. People coming to a place to stay awhile want some kind of attractions, and if only the moneyed men could get together and devise something Of that sort it wou,t be fine.
 A public library begun in d modest manner might be cultivated till it would become a fine attraction.
 If only some kind Of park. play ground. recreation center or some thing of the sort could be begun, it would be a grand thing.
 Some kind of united effort might be well which would lessen somewhat the cost of the necessaries of life. The spirit manifested in the Chau tauqua enterprise is fine: more of it will rebound greatly 10 the credit of the place earnestly hope the affair may be fine success. More of that get-together enthusiasm is what will make a place thrive.
 The churches here are ably con ducted and should be literally patron ized Pure'y as d business proposi- ton community cannot thrive with out churches. Were there no church. es Tn the country We should have chaos To speak plainly. all men owe their Creator proper worship and that can only be accomplished by an up- right life and attendance, as far as practicable. at some church service; nothing else whatever can take its place. And then. the man who lives | in community where there are churches and fails to support them as he is reasonably able. with his means and presence al times of worship. is living and enjoying the good things of life at the expense of other people. a thing not generally approved.
 The automobile ride. the Sunday visit communing with nature and talk ing rest and recreation are all well enough in their place. but should be wholly secondary to church attend ance, and this from business stand point if no other.
 My daughter and will ever recall our sojourn in Tombstone with the greatest pleasure and gratitude to the people who so kindly and hospitably took us into their homes. We cordial ly hope some day to sec large sani. tarium erected here as the result of enterprise on the part Of the people of the place. Such building should be filled to overflowing.
