During the war, it will be remem-
bered that Ex-Gov. Stubs came to
the Roundup at the Experiment
Station and in the afternoon deliver
ed a red-hot war speech to an aud
fence in the Coliseum, and was
cheered to the echo. It is told that
he will be here on the 10Th at the
Roundup this year, ready to make
another red-hot talk, he being al
candidate for Governor. Senator
FrizzeI of Larned, who always
comes, viii be here again this year.
and bring along Editor Morgan of
the Hutchinson News. who is also a
gubernatorial candidate and may
make a speech; so let the people pre-
pare to be here that day and meet
the crowds and have a big time. The
Sixth District Editorial Association,
the Sixth District World War Boys

A soldier was once arrested for US
ing a pack of playing cards as a Bible
in church. His defense was as fol
lows:
''These cards are both my Bible
and prayer-book The ace reminds
me there is only one God. The deuce
that the Bible is divided into two
parts-New and Old Testaments. The
trey brings to mind the Holy Trinity
Father, Son and. Holy Ghost. The
four spot recalls the four great
apostles Matthew, Mark, Luke and
John. The five spot brings to mind
the five wise virgins who had their
lamps trimmed and ready. The six
spot that God created heaven and
earth in six days and rested on the
seventh. The seven commands me
that the Sabbath is a day of rest and
worship. The eight spot recalls the
eight righteous persons, namely
Noah, his wife and three sons and
| their wives, who were saved from the
| flood by being allowed to enter the
ark. The nine spot represents the
nine lepers cleansed by the Savior.
Each of the spots on the ten reminds
me of one of the Ten Command
ments.
''The knave teaches. me to shun the
devil and all his works. The queen
reminds me of Mary, the mother of
Jesus, to whom all should do homage,
and the king reminds me of the King
of Heaven and Earth, to whom all
should bow in worship.
Furthermore, this pack of cards
is my almanac. It's number of spots
is 365-the number of days in the
year. There are ffty-two cards in
the pack-the number of weeks in
the year. There are four suits, re-
presenting the four seasons spring,
summer, autumn and winter-and
each season is divided into thirteen
weeks, the number of cards in each
suit. kansas City Times.

The dealers who entered into the agreement with the Coconino growers organization and Babbitt Brothers were the Melczer company, the John F. Barker Produce company, the Ari- zona Grocery company, Duncan X Jack, the J. A. Dick company, and She Phoenix Fruit and Produce company, all of Phoenix, and Johnson & Pierci' of Mesa. All parties concerned are receiving warm praise for their CO., operation.
 One of the interesting features of the local agreement is the fact that the Coconino growers have advan- tages over their outside competitors in the matter of freight rates. The rate from Flagstaff to Phoenix is 40 cents per hundredweight, as compared with S1 from Colorado points, where the principal competition to Flagstaff po- tatoes originates. No arrangements have been made with wholesalers in other cities of the state in regard to handling Flagstaff potatoes, but it is expected that dealers in several other localities will follow the example set here, which is regarded as striking instance of the success of the "Use Arizona Products" movement.
