ically told and used as basis for
the sermon. Every saved soul
should win another. The blessings Of
salvation should be passed on and
shared with others. Only In giving
one is truly blessed Gods favors
are not to be kept locked up in our
hearts as some secret treasure. The
helplessness OF the sinner without
Christ should make a strong appeal

fountain OF cleansing. Our motto:
Each One Win One" may become a
slogan that viii lead on to a great re-
vival OF religion. Religion Is not a
system of repression. We are not TO
put our young people in dark,
damp cellar and then sit on the door
for fear they have made a noise.
Rather let there be direction that will
use the energy and enthusiasm OF
youth for the honor Of Cod

DRIVE ON GOPHERS
PROVES SUCCESSFUL

Word has just been received at the
state headquarters of the United
States biological survey in Phoenix
of the successful drive made upon
the pocket gopher pest in Graham
county on February 10.
Friday, February 10. was desig-
mated as gopher day" in the Gila
valley near Stafford. and was so pro-
claimed in a proclamation issued by
the mayor Of Stafford, Mr.. h. w.
Sloan.
Mr.. Isaac Rogers, Of the United
States Biological survey supervised
the drive in which members OF the
Stafford schools, the chamber of COM
merce. women's club. Boy Scouts and
other civic organizations took part.
Every gopher runway in the city
OF Stafford was given a treatment OF
poison and was followed up success
fully with gopher traps.
The cooperation of the county ag-
ricultural agent, the farm bureau and
the Vocational Agricultural teachers
was secured and eleven public
demonstrations were held with a
total attendance OF 220 farmers. over
1000 acres OF farming land in the
ella valley was treated with poison
and the farmers estimate that over
so per cent OF the rodents were eX-
terminated with the first treatment.
The results of this good work Is made
possible through the cooperation or
the state Of Arizona which matches
the federal aid money for such pur-
noses and this service is proving
valuable asset TO the farmers and
stockmen at this time.

Human Nature In All It's Moods Has
Part In Life Of Telegraph Offices

A telegraph office is a fine place
to learn self control and to study
human nature. Finest in the world,
without doubt. But unless one has
the first objective in view. or a lean
ing toward the second. it were better
to seek employment elsewhere. Life
would indeed be a narrowing thing
to employees in such an office il II
were not for their knowledge that
human beings are many and varied,
and that ii takes all kinds of them to
make up the world.
In the local office the young wom-
en- who wait on the counter remain
cool and unruffled, no matter what
the state of mind OF the person on
the other side Of the railing.
II a determined woman wants to
send a message to New York city
and then sit down and wait for the
answer, that is her business. The
young woman considers her work
done when she has told the sender
that it will take longer than 10 min
utes to get the answer.
When some one comes in with a
telegram to be delivered TO Bill
Smith in some out of the way town
of the country. and expects the COM
pany to find the exact Bill Smith
wanted.it doesn't seem at all diff
cult to the competent clerk, and nine
times out of ten the message is de-
livered to the right man.
Business men rush in and send
messages which mean thousands of
dollars to them and wonder why the
clerk doesn't get all fused up at the
sums named. Girls wire their sweet
hearts, wives their husbands, young
men their prospective brides-mes-
sages Of love. hope. complaint and
threat. proposal and rejection. all are
taken and read and passed on to
the operators with quickness and
dispatch, but with no lost energy

OPERA SINGERS ARE
UNUSUAL ATTRACTION
BY Eusene RedewiIl

Besides very attractive cinema
bill at the Rialto, commencing last
night. members of the Sonora Grand
Opera company present many musi-
cal numbers of extraordinary attrac-
ton. Five groups of songs are pre-
sented by Speria Castel Beatriz Piz-
zorni and Cayetano Orduna. with /.
Del Castillo at the piano.
The pure tone quality and other
wise attractive singing OF Speria Cas-
tel in my Heart at Thy Sweet Voice, >
from Samson and Delilah." and 20
Promise Me-" adapted to Robin
Hood" is well worth the attendance
alone. The singers absolutely pure
tone, without tremolo or other usual
vocal mannerisms, is worthy Of at
tention of all aspiring vocalists.
The tenor, Cayetano Oi'duna. has
an excellent delivery and wins hearty
applause. Outside of somewhat
soaring tendency in intonation in the
Mexican trio at the close. the tenor
captivated his audience. The Bar
carolle," from Tales Of Hoffman"
was rendered in the two original
female voices probably for the first
time in Phoenix. Sr. Castillo at the
piano plays excellent accompani-
menta.
Arizona republican., 1922-02-20

from wasted emotion.
The hardest to receive and to de-
liver is the message telling of the
death of a loved one, especially when
the person receiving or sending it is
weeping over the message. But even
this has TO be taken philosophically
by the people who handle hundreds
OF such messages in a week.
And perhaps just when the sad
part of life seems very much to the
fore a merry rake will swagger in
and spend an hour sending out wires
for financial assistance which Will
keep the operators convulsed with
merriment. Or young man will
come in and pour his soul out in
telegram to his "sweetie," committing
to the wires the words which bash
fulness has prevented him from ut
tering. After which he will moon
around the office for hours waiting
for his answer-which by the way. is
Just as impatiently awaited by the
office women as by the sender. They
take an absorbing interest in affairs
of the heart, even 10 the exclusion
of great financial deals.
Then there is always the person
who has never seen a telegraph Of
flee or instrument, and who after
being shown how to write the mes
sage. watches it put in the tube to
be shot upstairs to the sending room
and exclaims. $50 that's how they
send 'em!"
All day and far into the night the
telegraph instruments click, bringing
and sending and all this time hui
manity surges in and out Of the
doors with messages or in quest OF
them. Gay, nervous, excited. quar-
relsome, bitter, despairing they come
and go. while the little clerks attend
to their wants and learn the lesson
of life from their varying attitudes
toward it.
