l. .i|NsON COLLEGE IS
OPENING NEW TERM

With prospects for the biggest
summer attendance in the history Of
the school the LamSon Business col
lego will open the new term on June
5. An increasing number of calls for
efficient office help is assigned by
Mr.. Lafmson as one reason for the
added interest which is becoming
manifested in business instruction.
another cause is the popularity with
which the local school is regarded oy
government vocational training stu
dents. These ex-service men fird
the work for which the course adapts
them to be congenial and the eli
matte conditions under which they
study and work to be nearly ideal.
For these reasons they are coming
here from all parts of the United
States. That these and other stu
dents add considerably to the busi-
ness of the city even before they are
prepared to take an active part in it
is best pointed out by Mr.. Lamson
who says:
Very few people OF Phoenix real
ize he'economic value of the Lamson
Business college to Phoenix. 1t not
only keeps large amount OF money
at home that otherwise would be
spent on the coast or back east by
those who wish to obtain a thorough
business education. but it also is the
means of bringing into Phoenix many
from other parts of the country.
"Since the first of last October
these outside students have been
spending from $1,000 to $1,000 per
month for board. room, clothing, etc.
Since the first of April about 20 stu
dents have secured positions book
keepers and stenographers which
would indicate that business is in
creasing.
calls are occasionally coming in
from other cities of the state. prob
ably due to so many of the mines re-
opening"

BRITISH NAVY WILL
GUT STAFF To LIMIT
Of ARMS CONF FERENCE
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased wirel

Republican a. y. Leased WtreI
LONDON, May 14.-An admiralty
order was published Saturday for the
retirement of officers necessitated by
the decision of the washington arma-
ment conference for naval reduction.
The number of officers to be dis
pensed with is not as large as had
been expected. OF an officer strength
of about $3.50 total of 1885 will be
retired. The loss to the navy OF such
a number will not be so severe as the
mere counting of heads would indl-
cate. One officer describes the re-
duction as a plan to increase the
efficiency of the navy by decreasing
the number of officers.
None of the large number of older
admirals in the British service will
be retired by the admiralty order
but many of them automatically will
drop out shortly because of age. Most
important to the navy's efficiency
are the experienced officers of the
line. A total of 119 captains and 200
commanders will be retired. but the
grade of lieutenant commander,
which is more important to the
strength of the navy two years
hence, is not touched.
Thus only 319 of those men such
as in the American navy are termed
experienced line officers" which
means those with more than 10 years
service, will be lost.
Lieutenants to the number of 407
who are graduates of the naval
school will go, and 703 other men
OF the same and lower rank. a con-
siderable proportion of whom were
promoted from the lower deck dur
ing are war; are included. This makes
total of 1,429 line officers. The
total of 1885 is made by the addi-
ton of 345 engineers. 101 account
ants and so marine officers.

Princess Marie to King Alexander of
Jugo- Slavia. She said she was con-

direction of unity and peace in the

But" Marie added. "it is a mis-
take and unfair to say that it is
political marriage. You know, even
among kings and princessess, there
is such a thing as love at first sight.
That is what happened in this case.
The young king had never met my
daughter until he came to Bucharest
last January. When he saw her he
held out both hands and said: i need
you, my country needs you. VIII you
came and help us?'
THAT simple. frank plea won her
