THE LARGEST CHAIN DEPARTMENT STORE ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD

education, know that education is the one and only salvation for both the individual and the nation. Talk is cheap. Action takes thought and time. When the Towner-Sterling bill passes it will pass because enough newspapers, clergymen, educators, in- fiuential men and common, ordinary, everyday citizens have printed, talked and written about their convictions both to and at their respective legis- lators.
 You who read this have represen- tative in congress and the right to address two senators. Three two- cent stamps and your convictions sent to these gentlemen will aid in bring ing to your schools, your community, your children the same federal aid which has helped your and other com munities in roads, in agriculture, in postal facilities, in reclamation, in mining methods, in forestry, in all the hundred and one ways in which Uncle Sam assists Americans to be better, abler and more prosperous citi- zens.
 Do it now!

HIGHWAY COMMISSIONS
 APPEAR TO BE DOOMED

The legislature seems to be deter mined in it's ambition to abolish coun- tty highway commissions as represent ing a duplication of effort. Out of a half dozen bills along this line, sub- stitute house bill 43, which was ap- proved by the house committee of the whole Saturday, appears to have the best chance of becoming a law. This proposed law would not affect existing commissions, but provides that here after all activities of the commits sions would be handled by the county supervisors, except in handling good road bond issues of $2,000,000 or up- wards, in which cases the supervisors may appoint a highway commission of three.

WHERE OBJECTIONS ARE
 REALLY NOT OBJECTIONS

Ideas are epidemic, as well as in- fiuenza. Someone sees a ghost" which throws stones or sets the house on fire, and behold, all over the coun- try come reports of ghosts" Some one having reason for not wanting the children of today well educated sees a mythical objection to the Town er-Sterling bill, now before congress, which provides for a department of education and chief who is mem Der of the cabinet, and all over the country little men of little minds echo the cry of ''paternalism."
 The Towner-Sterling bill requires these three things in state before it can receive the "paternal" federal aid to education provided in the bill:
 1. A public school opportunity of not less than "A weeks.
 2. Compulsory attendance at some school, public or private, for at least A weeks in the year, of all children between 2 and IA.
 3. English as the basic language of instruction in all schools, public and private, in the common branches.
 The man who comes out in the open and says those provisions are wrong, or un-American, or vicious may have courage, if not sense.
 As matter of sober fact, there are no real objections to the bill, even by those who don't want it! The only persons who don't want it are the people who have always fought edu- cation, who see in education of the masses the end of spiritual and thus civil tyranny. But the people of the United States as a whole want edu- cation, demand education, believe in

MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR
 U. S. TRAINING CONGRESS

John $. Oglesby of Dallas, Texas, chairman of this area for The Militry Training Camps association is in re- ceipt of letter from the commanding general of the eighth corps area, Fort Sam Houston, Texas, that tentative plans are being formulated for Civil ian Training camps to be held in this area August 1 to 3l, 1922.
 Applications for attendance at Citi- zens Military Training camps will be accepted at corps area headquarters after April 1. Corps headquarters are preparing to open recruiting cam paign atout April lgt and this asso- citation will help through it's state and local chairmen.
 Arrangements are being made to train 3,y00 citizens m this area. Red, White and Blue courses will be con ducted. Training m the Red course will be confined in general to the sim pie fundamentals. In the White (non- commissioned officers) and the Blue (officers) courses, the training will be subjects in which the candidates must qualify for appointment in the grades indicated.
 IHt dSt llHlll TUT Jilc lNSu SouA oC will be from IT to 25 years of age; for the White couse from Is to 26 years of age, and for the Blue course from 19 to 27.
 No man who successfully completed the Red course in 1921 will be barred from the White course in 1922 on ac- count of age.
 Applicants who have had prior military training in any one of the three components of the Army of the United States, especially veterans of the World War, may be accepted foI any of the three courses if not over 35 years of age.
 Students of the two higher courses will be selected from enlisted mem, bers of regular army, national guard organized reserves, R. o. T. C., ano qualified civilians, who do not care tc enlist in any of the constituted com ponents of the army.
 That the students of the Citizens Military Trainings camps held at Camp Travis, Texas, in 1921, returned to their homes improved in health morals, mental alertness and personal cleanliness and acquired a greater re- spect for authority is evidenced by the replies from their parents or guar dians to a questionnaire sent out by Brig. Gen. B. A. Poore, commanding officer of the camp.

One of the stories Charles Howard, who died a few days ago, was fond o1 telling, says Dr. R. o. Raymond, was how his great grandfather, back m Baltimore, Md, after whom one oI the principal business streets oi that city was named, offered the city as much land as they would fence in. He owned a great tract near where the center of the city now is. The city fathers were economical and figured that they couldn't afford to build much fence. so they fenced in one block.
 Another story Mir. Howard was fond of telling was of dream he once had. There was a severe drought just then, and the dream was of conversation MT, Howard had with his big white saddle horse. The latter was afraid they would all starve and was insis- tent on knowing what MT. Howard proposed doing about it.
 There was same excitement down town last week when Joe Jackson an nounced that he had new little girl at his home. A self-appointed com mittee persuaded Henry Albers to in- vestigate. They found Joe had told the truth. The newcomer was lit tie girl calf.
 An Old-Timer" contributes the fol lowing:
 He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is fool; shun him.
 He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is simple; teach him. He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is asleep; awaken him.
 He who knows, and knows that he knows, is wise man; follow him.
 City school superintendent John c Thomas says a school book salesman wrote to Dr. l.. B. McMullen of the Normal school to interest him in his line. The latter wrote back that sel' ections were already made and nc !. use coming on. "I'm hardboiled,' Mac wrote. The salesman write back "I like my eggs hardboiled." I. B. Koch says that man in the hotel room l.ext to Fred Lusk in Sar Francisco last week committed sui eide. Fred heard the shot. Rushing to the elevator and thence to the din. ing room he yelled at the waiter: "My God! The man in the next room has just killed himself! 1 just heard the shot. For heavens sake, bring me g double order of ham and eggs and piece of lemon pie right away"
 Dr. E. s. Miller asserts that a mar walked into the Arizona Central bank last week and told Charlie Isham he wanted to take out some insurance. Life or fre?" Charlie asked.

 But, the wearers of the skirts have their reasons, and they frequently are very good ones. If you don't know what we mean maybe you can pick it out of what Joe Dolan says about it: A fair maiden, named Peggy Rous- seau,

 Internal revenue collector Thos. K. Windes had to explain to the man who sent him the following letter:
 Dear Sir - l got your application blanks, but on account of belonging now to so many fraternal orders, I reel that cannot afford joining the Income Tax at present." The young people of Winslow have new game they call Christianity" This is how they play it: The Chris tians, who are the girls, get on one side of the room, and the boys, on the other, are heather; then the heathens cross over and embrace Christianity. It's very popular game in Winslow.
 Many strangers here are astonished at our low prices. Especially at how little it costs for meals. When you get fine chicken dinner for ten cents as you can at Fred Lusk's place of business, there's no need of going hungry.

He had decided to ship all their hens to market. His wife objected. But the old man was bent on having his way. To defeat it, the wife went out and cut all the chickens heads off.
 "Conssun that woman," he told us. She reminds me of a damned old COW I've got. She'll go ahead and give a pail fuf of milk and then up and kick 1t over."
 Tennis O'Brien, appearing as a wit ness recently for friend who wanted to be naturalized was asked if the man for whom he was a witness was good man.
 "To be sure he isl" said Denny. Sure Dive seen him in ten fights dur in the past six months an livery toime he licked his man. Quick thinking got Ray Babbitt out of a call-down one time when he re- marked that the young woman he had just been dancing with danced like a heifer. Then he turned and saw the young woman right behind him. Realizing that she must have over- heard the remark, he said:
 T was just saying as you came up that you certainly dance like zep. hyr." He was much relieved when he saw her gratified smile.
