DUNN AND OUMMER ON THE
ROYAI MARRIAGE

"Whaddya think Of this Niscount
Iascelles what the Princess Mary of
England has picked out for a hus-
band?" asked Senator DUNN.
Gee but from the pictures ! seen
of him in the papers | think il is no
exaggeration about England suffer-
ing from a great shortage OF good
looking young men, replied Repre-
sentative Dummer. He looks old
enough 10 be her grandfather.
Il think he's race track bug,
said DUNN.
"Why SOP asked Dummer
Because in every picture I seen OF
him so far he has a set of field glass
es over his chest and is either going
or coming from a horse race.
How can YOU tell he's going or
coming from horse race?' demand
ed Dummer.
"By the field glasses and the high
hat" returned DUNN.
"Field glasses don't prove a mans
going to a horse race insisted Dunn
mer. Lots of men take 'em to bur
lesque shows. According TO what I've
read Of this vice count he follows the
hounds
"A dog catcher?' queried Dunn.
Nav. a man who follows the
hounds don't catch no dogs sneered
Dummer.
What does he follow them for If
he don't catch none2' asked DUNN,
a bit confused.
"a man what follows the hounds
is hunter" explained Dummer.

We still unconvinced by the statement or
an engineer in The Republican yesterday morning
that the county highway commission could be dis
pensed with to advantage and its duties left with
the board Of supervisors transferred to eng
neer who should full charge of the business of
carrying out highway programs.
His plan looks well paper and his theory
might have been attractive as theory before we
had observed the work of present highway com
mission in practice.
Certainly bad and wasteful commission is
possible and, as we have already pointed out, in
certain circumstances commissions not needed.
we understand that in Pima county there is deep
dissatisfaction with It's highway commission largely.
we suppose because the program there did not re-
oure a commission. The people OF Cochise county,
we are told haze been satisfied with their commits
sion which, having finished its work. no longer
exists.
In this county the commission is justified by
the results to date midway in the execution of its
program Not only the people satisfied with what
has been accomplished, but experts from different
parts of the country. men the most competent to
Judge have given the work Of the commission their
highest approval.
- one would gather from the letter Of our corre-
spohdent that highway construction is practically
one-nlan job-that of $4,000 engineer with OF
four assistants TO look dlter
and inconsequental details. But most OF us have
seen engineering feats involving some millions of
dollars being performed, and we have also observed
the engineers required in the perform
ance We have not questioned the need of so many
but have supposed that the engineers in charge knew
what they were about.
THE overhead Of county highway depart
roent has not been heavy. There has been no un-
necessary employment The commissioners have
viven their whole time and attention to every detail
of the business and have acquainted themselves with
tho technical features, which have, however, been
loft to a competent engineer who has not been dis
+racted by any Of the business details.
The work has been done with rapdity and
rnootbness and with absence of backing and fill
ig" and always with eye to the conserving Of
oorv cent of the millions which have been at the
disposal of the commission.
The people OF Maricopa county, the taxpayers,
~ Great preponderating majority who putting
~ +ba money, may not be astute judges as the
riss and the politicians but they are pleased with
h commission and they want it continued until the
brav nrogram has been completed.

THE ONCE OVER
By H. I. PHILLIPS

you see the hunter is hunting foxes
for neck pieces. Well. he has hounds
to follow the fox and then he fol-
lows the hounds. Some of them Eng
lish hunters are so slow the fox often
laps them twice in the same race.
DO the hunters get many foxes
asked DUNN.
Nav: the hunter has all he can DO
to find his dogs again. BY the time
he locates the dogs it's too dark TO

The Inf.I!ibiIIty Of III. Customer

The slogan the customer is always right was
perhaps not intended to state absolute and
erring truth. The word always" probably in
serted to be impressive upon the clerk salesman
in dealing with the customer. The real meaning we
suppose, was "The customer must be satisfied"
otherwise he will to be customer
The customer is sometimes wrong and there
are some saleswomen and men who always earn
est and conscientious and habtually right We
suppose these qualities fully appreciated by the
right kind of proprietors, who in direct contro-
versy between customer and clerk involving ques-
ton of veracity in the interest of esprit de corps,
to say nothing Of justice and fairness, would stand
by the clerk when convinced that he is right. But
probably the wise manager and proprietor in such
a case would satisfy the customer, right wrong,
without allowing the controversy to come to head
resulting in the defeat and humiliation OF the clerk,
who after that would be victim of loss of some
confidence in himself total loss Of confidence in
his employers sense of justice.
If surrender to the customer in all circum-
stances is to be the rule let it be the surrender of
the proprietor and manager and not the sacrifice
of the clerk when he is right for clerks are some
times right

We are not a partisan organization.
The membership of our Chapter

every engineering agency funetioning

selfish desires or mercenary motives
prompt us in our consideration Of
public affairs. We only desire that
the public at large know our aim
regarding matters upon which. as en-

We have no quarrel with any high
way commission but foot prints on
the sands of time remind us Of the
pathways, devious and hard, trod by
many OF our counties under the guild
ance Of a highway commission.
That an engineer Is qualified to do
those things which he Is best fitted TO
do by education and training We say
with no thought of rgotism.
In regard TO executive dualfica-
tions. We can only point TO the
executive positions filled by engi-
neers upon our railway systems, pub
lie utilities. mining corporations and
other organizations where engineer
ing ability is a requisite. We say
with no small amount OF pride that
many executive positions within the
State OF Arizona are being ably filled
by engineers. Practical experiments,
conducted through agencies whose
destinies are controlled by engineers,
point well TO the fallacy Of your ex-

There Was A Woman

head told much that never passed her
lips That was all we knew.
She must have felt her days fun of
grind, but there was no contempt for
the work laid out for her She seemed
to feel it was dgiven, His choice
for her, and she magnified its gran
deur. She must do it well. What if
1t did entail sacrifice and self f-denial
and patience and physical strain,
even pain? If daylight hours were
not sufficient there was no complaint.
What marked it strange was that no
one asked her to give so of body and
soul. She imposed it upon herself.
Those of us who came in contact
with her and watched have always
sought to explain the impelling force
which urged her on.
Her life seems like some jagged
skyline stretching across the past,
with its ups and downs, its valleys
and hills. Towering above all stand
out SO distinctly two great peaks,
built upward by her own heart and
hands, the Sinais where God spoke to
her. Joy and Faith, her mountain
tops!
Joy was given to her in fun meas
ure. She found ii in the obscure
crooks and crannies of her work.
Achievement always carried with II a
Joyous satisfaction. Then as II TO
heap her soul. already full of glad
some treasures, she reveled in the
Beauty all about-in textile fine, In
handiwork, in leaf and bud and sky.
Faith In her Duty amid the stresses
OF iife's strain was neither feeble nor
tickle. It never let her shirk the is
sue. Faith in Man sprang from her
faith in God. Faith in God gave her
courage to so on, and feel sure OF the
final outcome.
After all, from the distance at
which we now view the picture, the
two peaks have blended into one ana
we call it Love.
The Love of a Mother for her chill
dren.
She was my Mother. I rise up to
call her blessed.

She was too busy a woman TO bear
the stamp of dullness upon her. She
was not a successful manager in a
big department store. Even il so in
clined, she had not the leisure for
committee work, meetings or social
pleasure. A daily task was hers from
which a long run of years did not
release her.
AS if the burden of a taxing service
was not enough, she had always the
extra load of pain and illness As we
watched her, there were those of us
who wondered how her frail body
survived the strain. She knew sor-
row so many times the rest OF us
flinched for her, but the little woman
never faltered. over and over we saw
financial struggle topple her fondiy-
built dreams. And when grim Death
asked for her wee baby we saw the
tears on her cheeks but no rebellion
in her eyes. We felt her life was too
full of Christening. So courageous a
spirit needed not all that discipline.
Seeing her almost prisoner fet-
tered by the invisible chains OF duty
and environment, as we came to know
her, we sometimes curiously Won
dered IL she ever had desire TO break
them loose and enjoy freedom. II So
she breathed 1t to no earthly soul. Sc
far as we knew. There were mo-
ments when, as if to seek a respite
from her task, she would ponder over
some printed page, seeming TO find
pleasant paths into some distant land
she fain would see. To those AROUND
her, of the deeper sentiments OF life
she seldom spoke. We now think
that affection to her was too sacred
thing for speech Always there was
a. mystery about her that awed, yet
inspired. That she could march up
and face each day so much that was
unconRenial in her life, and do 1t
smilingly, was difficult for us TO un-
derstand.
