Kunselman of the local firm. Kunselman and Harpe, photographers.
 "Climatic and atmospheric condi- tions here are almost perfect for photographic work" MT. Alexander declared. in addition to commenting upon the unusual scenic wonders of the state.
 There is an ever increasing de- mand for clean outdoor pictures" {" he continued. And in the Arizona Motion Pictures, Inc. Phoenix has an organization prepared to give the public this class of work The men behind this company not only have business foresight but are imbued with ideals which make for success in the cinema world. The day has come when the public insists upon clean motion pictures produced in Clcdn cnsAfOilliicltS Dy tiSdn -IIiAiiutu people. By working along this line Arizona has an opportunity to as- sume leadership from the incep- tion of the industry here" Plans for building ten-acre studio here are already considered Mir. Alexander said, and commented upon the financial advantages which would accure to the city through such a move.

Burgess famous animal stories ap- pear daily in The Republican.
 He attributes his success in writ inq to his children. Their enthusiasm, he said. and their wide-eyed wonder a the simple tales he was accustomed to relating to them just before bed- time gave him the inspiration that has led to daily entertainment of 10, 900, 900 children daily. Children, you know" he added, "are the same the world over"
 With the same engaging simplicity and droll realism that distinguishes his writings from those of other authors, MT. Burgess unfolded to the Post reporter the secret of the open sesame to the hearts of millions of little ones, to whom his lessons in ethics, or Sermons to Children" as he terms them, are so cleverly related that the child, without knowing it. is given a lesson which will remain long in the mind.
 Children, he continued do not want to be preached to, and yet the child l is little savage and must be civil ized A child instinctively repels cau- 1 tioning. resents a scolding. and chas- tisement is often more painful to the parent than the offender.

The story was taken from a west

said before, that most of the news
papers of the state used the story
and in not one, that we know of, was
the correction made. Probably what
should have been said was that the
figures represented the freight rate
on 100 pounds.
At that, perhaps little more care

some proofreading. But If people only
