ARIZONA men WHO HAVE \
MADE POSSIBLE AN ARIZONA
COMPANY FOR ARIZONA PEOPLE

purchases all of its supplies
at home, it's officers believe
that it is entitled to patron
age from Arizona people
and are out for a just share.
"Let us have a portion of
your life insurance busi-
ness, at least" is the way
they put it.
Incidentally, the Phoenix
National Life is offering a
special policy more attract
i've in its provisions, it is
claimed, than any contract
offered by any other COM
pany doing business in this
state-a claim we'll worthy
Of investigation.
The one big argument
against spending your dol
lar away from home,
whether you are buying
dress good, sewing ma
chimes, life insurance or any
other commodity, is that it
robs your neighbor of its
circulation, and on money
circulation is based the
financial health of any COM
munity. In discussing this
point, Mr.. Christy said:
Zone of the first policies
adopted by our board of
directors was that every
dollar entrusted to our care
by policy holders should be
invested for their benefit
and protection in Arizona.
This was done for a dual
purpose. 1t was good busi-
ness in the first place, and
in the second it was felt that
if the company could con-
vince the public that it was
an Arizona institution in
practice as we'll as in theory,
that it was vitally interested
in the advancement of Ari-
zona and the development
of her resources, we would
go a long way toward Sc
curing the esteem and con-
fidence of the very people
we desired to reach.
"As to the 'good-busi-
ness end of the argument,
little need be said. Every
year big bonding houses
and financial institutions
invest millions Of dollars in
Arizona securities of var
ious kinds, and first mortg-
ages on improved Arizona
lands are always consid-
cred and Al investment.
Instancing the confidence
which the financial world
holds for Arizona was the
sale by the state the other
day of $1,500,0O0 tax an
ticipation bonds, for which
the New York purchasers
were willing to pay -four
and a half per cent interest
in addition to a substantial
premium. All Of which
shows that the financiers OF
the country have conf
dence in Arizona. That we
should entertain the same
view is to share that conf
dence from a cold hard
headed practical business
standpoint, as we'll as being
influenced by our desire to

REMEMBER THE CORN VARIETY
TESTS

| Care in the selection of your seed
corn will well repay you another
winter. Buy the right variety and
be sure of the termination. The
good corn season of last year has
enabled many man to pay his taxes,
but such season comes seldom and
late varieties that gave an enormous
crop last year may mean loss this
year.
Davis Flint, R. j. Flint and Shelf
field are varieties that are sure to
give good tonnage and high value per
acre. Other kinds may, but are not
so certain.
This winter has shown how a corn
crop helps out when the hay NOW is
short. If you have seen it, you must
admit that it is worth while to put a
little more time into getting the corn
ground in better condition than usual,
using little more fertilizer, trying
to get more even planting, keeping
down the weeds and fighting to get
your crop to the No. 1 silage stage
before your short period of summer
runs out.

Man Who Captured
Berlin Dies From
Splinter In His Eye

STOCKHOLM, June 27-(Associat-
ed Press Nadia splinter of wood in
n eye caused the death of DR.. VOL
gang Kapp, the American born Ger
man junker who tried to overthrow
the German republican government
about two years ago, and who died re-
Gently in Germany. DR.. Kapp, who
was residing in Sweden at the time
of his injury, neglected it, and when
at last he consulted a specialist ex.
animation of the affected optic show
ed that a malignant cancer had de-
veloped.
The injured eye was removed but
the cancer persisted, and when DR..
kapp returned TO Germany he was
instantly arrested only to be taken
to the hospital where he died.
When DR.. Kapp's intended coup-d'
etat failed, he secured a false pass
port, fled to Sweden by airplane, and
won the governments permission to
remain in the country on the ground
that he vas a political refuge. He
was soon joined by his wife and
daughter, and the Kapp family settled
on a beautiful country estate at Hal
lexis. Here they spent nearly two
years, undisturbed by the postwar
crisis in world politics.
The Kapps lived simply and I'M
o~stentatively in Hallekis. Mrs. Kapp
did her own house work while DR..
Kapp attended to the outdoor duties
of the household. Like his former
imperial master, DR.. Kapp in his exile
took up wood-sawing and splitting,

and it was while he was engaged in
splitting wood for the kitchen range
that he met with the injury that led
to his death.
During his residence at Hallekis
DR.. Kapp proved to be anything but
the ~ire-eating Prussian iunker he
had been pictured. At one crucial
point during the great war he chal-
lenged Chancellor Bethmann-Hollweg
to a duel, and after peace was re
stored he planned to crush the u
stable German Socialist regime with
typical Prussian ruthlessness. He ac-
tually captured Berlin, drove the
Ebert government to Dresden, and
ruled over the German capital for
five days. Kapp was accused of being
a reactionary, working for the ulti-
mate restoration of the monarchy.
but he always strongly denied this.
The Swedes of the Hallekis com
munity who had supposed DR.. Kapp
to be a roaring Prussian of the most
military type, found him a
curteous and charming old gentleman
He was kindly, democratic and very
social, frequently visiting the neigh
boring farms and chatting with the
farmers and their workmen, among
whom he became very popular. His
tendency to mingle on terms of
equality with all classes probably re-
suited from his early American train
ing, DR.. Kapp having spent his early
youth in New York City where he
was born in 1852. The people who
best knew DR.. Kapp in Sweden des-
cribe him as a model neighbor and
a genial gentleman.

Alexander Graham Bell lived to see
experiments which he began with a
dead mans ear less than fifty years
ago result in a means of communica-
ton for the world. The possibility of
talking rel a wire, ridiculed then as
a dream by almost everybody except
Bell, became during his lifetime a
reality commonplace and marvellous.
The Bell basic patent, known in the
records at Washington as No. 17l,465
has been called the most valuable
single patent ever issued in the whole
history of invention. There are today
over thirteen million telephone in
struments through which billions of
telephone conversations are carried on
each year.
Means of communication had been
a hobby in the Bell family long before
the inventor of the telephone was
born. Two generations back, AleXan-
der Bell became noted for inventing
a system for overcoming stammering
speech, while his son, Alexander Mel
vile Bell, father of the inventor OF
the telephone, perfected a system OF
visible speech.
With this heritage, the son born in
Edinburgh, Scotland, in lS47, under
took similar experiments while still
a lad. He constructed an artificial
skull of gutta-percha and Indian rub
Der that would pronounce several
words in weird tone, when blown into
by a hand bellows. At the age OF
sixteen he became, like his father, a
teacher of elocution, and an instruct
or Of deaf mutes.
Bell reached a crisis in his life at
the age of %, when he was threatened
with tuberculosis. The white plague
caused the death of his two brothers
and the Bell family migrated to Brant-
ford, Canada.
A meeting at that time with Sir
Charles Wheatstone, the English in
ventor of the telegraph, fired the
young elocutionist with ambition to
invent a musical, or multiple. tele-
graph, which eventually turned out to
be a telephone.
His father while giving a lecture in
Boston, proudly mentioned the sons
success in teaching London deal
mutes. This lead the Boston Board
of Education to offer the young Bel
$500 to introduce his system in the
newly opened school for deaf mutes
