Hot weather and flies ruin a great

during the fly season. Spring calves
are never allowed by some breeders
to pasture the first summer, but are
kept in shaded pens away from the

are not allowed pasture during the hot
days, but are turned out at night into
small paddocks or exercise pens. I'm

HIS OWN STORY
WINS PRIZE FOR
FAMOUS LITER
Louis V. Eytinge, II Years
In Arizona Prison, Is
First With Story About
Turning Point In Life"

Some time ago the Outlook Of New
York offered three prizes for stories
describing the turning point in hui
man life. The letters were to be about
500 words in length. Hundreds were
submitted and, according to a letter
received by The Republican from the
Outlook yesterday, the prizes have
been awarded.
The first prize was won by Louis
Victor Eytinge, life man from this
county in the Arizona state prison,
the most famous prisoner, perhaps, in
the United States. His fame was
created and his health and character
restored Inside the Walls the title
OF his story, which begins:
'He staggered through the prison
gates, his steel-cuffed hands holding
a bloody kerchief to his livid lips as
the hemorrhage hacked at his leaking
lungs. Two hours of fitful rest, then
he stood upon the scales before the
prison doctor and heard the verdict.

STRONG SERMON IS
GIVEN At REVIVAL BY
REV. ]. A. STAVELY

AT the revival services at the First
Methodist Episcopal church, the pas
tor evangelist, Rev. James A. Stavely,
opened the exercises by reading the
55th chapter of Isaiah and took the
fifth and sixth verses as a basis of a
wonderfully strong spiritual message.
This is particularly a fitting time to
Seek ye the Lord while he may be
found" 1t is being demonstrated
nightly that he is being found. Call
ye upon him while he is near" There
are times when our words are futile.
God seems afar off. At this time
even a sinner can feel that he is near.
Any separation of man from his
maker is based on the will OF the
man. in seasons such as this the
spirit may follow the sinned with
such persistence that they are most
compelled to yield. Saying Lord.
Lord. with lip service, does not avail.
but he that doeth the will of the most
high shall be saved. Let the wicked
forsake his way and the unrighteous
man his thoughts. The Lord knows
the ways of us all, the secrets of the
inner heart. Therefore the wicked
must forsake his way and the un-
righteous man his thoughts. These
things are vital. Lust in the heart
is as much sin as open acts of sin in
life. The wicked intent of the heart
must be put away.
A man standing up against the sins
of the world in his own strength is
to be admired, but how much better
and more successful when he takes in
his maker as partner, then the man
of flesh becomes as a granite shaft,
defying the wiles of the devil and
standing as monument to the
verities.
The mountains, hills and valleys do
sing and the trees do clap their hands
to the soul that has lately been
purged of its sin. Their spirit be-
comes attuned to to the singing of
the spheres and the harmony of Gods
world of love and mercy.
The opening exercises consisted of
the usual revival songs. with four
specials by the Conners trio: "Get a
Transfer" duet, Whom Having
Not Seen, l Love-" by Mr.. and Mrs
Bill; solo, He Died of a Broken
Heart by Little Bill; trio. "The
Shelf Behind the Door," The solo
was the cap sheaf of the opening ex-
ercises.
Don't forget that tonight Is Mother
and Daughter special. This program
will be one of the most important of
them all. Fill the church to over
flowing and WOO the holy spirit while
the atmosphere is so surcharged with
augurs of blessings.

GOVERNMENT OPENS
PETERS HAY CASE IN
FEDERAL COURT HERE

Because w. c. West of Gilbert, a
juror in the case, held the mistaken
impression that the action would not
be started until this morning, the
case of the United States government
against A. ]. Peters, ]. N. Jaggers,
Paul Arpli and others for their al
legged fraudulent practices with re-
gard to hay sales made during 1919,
was delayed from $3.50 o'clock until
yesterday afternoon, when West ap-
peared and took his place in the jury
box.
The governments case was opened
in the afternoon with the presentation
and Identification of scores of docu-
ments-claims, invoices, certificates,
checks, bills of lading and other pa
pers relating to the action-upon
which the prosecution of the de-
PENDANTS is based. A good sized
crowd of spectators watched the pro-
ceedings, which marked the Begin
ming Of what is believed to be one Of
the most important cases ever
brought in the United States district
court in this city.
The first witness for the govern
ment was f. Kanen of El Paso, ac-
countant with the contract audit Sec
tion of the finance office of the Unit
ed States army. Kanen identified
seven sets" of evidence, each set
consisting of all the documents refer
ring TO single contract and including
everything appertaining to that con-
tract from the first bid to the final
payment check. These documents
were turned over to him, the witness
testified, by the finance office of the
United States army at El Paso in au-
diting the accounts between the A. J.
Peters Hay and Grain company and
the government.
Frank S. Smith, special agent for
the department of justice, identified
a number of documents taken from
the office of the hay company and
also OF ]. N. Jaggers, who then was
secretary of the Salt River Valley
Hay Dealers association. Smith also
identified other documents which had
been placed in his possession by Ar
mond ID. Chaytor, Jr.. who was spe-
cial agent for the department of JUS
tice in Phoenix in 1919, and who is
now dead.
The Identification of a number of
checks which the witness said were
written by Jaggers in his presence
was made by Charles B. Lewis of
Mesa, who was q deputy hay in
spector under Jaggers in 1919. Lewis
also outlined his duties as Inspector.
other identifications of checks were
made by Mrs. Rose Wilson and Mrs.
MatlocK who were clerks in Jag
gers office at the time alleged in the
indictments. Il. H. Edmiston, an
other deputy hay inspector under
Jaggers, identified a number OF grade
certificates as having been made out
by him and others which he did not
prepare.
The case will be resumed at $3.50
o'clock this morning.

FIRST DONATION IS
MADE IN CAMPAIGN
Of WELT ARE LEAGUE

The first contribution that the
Welfare League received in its an
nual campaign came in Wednesday
afternoon. A middle-aged man walked
into the league headquarters and laid
IS bill on one of the workers desks
and walked out without giving his
name or address. Hence the sum OF
the budget now ends with a cipher
instead of five, but there still re-
mains the sum OF $24. $50 which must
be raised before January Ia which is
the last day of the campaign.
The various social, civic, religious
and fraternal organizations that have
heen asked to cooperate with tho
league are now appointing committees
that will function with the head
quarters in the coming drive. Several
workers have already responded to
Chairman Willis request for volun-
teers and number more are still
needed to handle the volume of de-
tail work that must be completed be-
fore the drive dates of January IL, 13
and IA. Anyone who can devote a
few hours day, for the next 10 days.
is requested to report to Charles F.
Willis at the Welfare League head
quarters at Central avenue and
Adams street.
In view of the fact that the drive
itself will be confined TO only three
days, special effort is being made
to obtain every possible subscription
and donation before the campaign
starts. The contributions that come
in voluntarily now will save the time
OF the workers and subscribers both
and everyone is urged to send or
bring in their contributions as early
as possible. The six major local
charitable organizations that partici-
pate in the annual budget raised by
the Welfare League have just con-
cluded splendid year of intelligently
directed and efficiently handled work
among the needy of Phoenix.
The calls that will be made upon
these organizations during the COM
ing year will be greater than ever and
they must have the support Of the
entire community If their efficiency
is to be maintained. These organi-
cations have clearly proven that they
can do far more and better work since
the entire burden of finances have
been lifted from their shoulders by
the Welfare League, and their pres
ent budget plan of operation has been
found to be both effective and eco
nomical. The money that the citizens
OF Phoenix contribute. to this cam
paign is carefully allotted where and
when the maximum of good will ac-
crue from it.
