I am an old time printer and publisher myself, and I believe I have kept fairly abreast with the growth of journalistic ventures throughout the country, and as resident of New York for the last 12 or 15 years I have some first hand acquaintance with the several seriously edited weekly re- views which are issued in that city. Imagine my surprise at finding here in Prescott. just as I would be surprised
 n finding it anywhere outside New York, the journal, Candid Opinion, which in the elegance of its mechanical makeup and typographical attractive ness is delight to the eye, and in it's editorial brilliancy, the depth of its reasoning and the wide range of its subject matter deserves to be placed in the front rank with those publica- tions of like character which are

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
 OF A STRANGER
New York Visitor Tells About His
 Impressions of Prescott.

Probably no man ever spends few days as visitor in any city or locality to which business or pleasure may for the first time call him, without con sciously. or unconsciously. carrying away with him one impression of it. which dominates all others. and to which his mind will turn in any future recollection of the place or its people.
 A few days ago I came for the first time to Prescott. The lure of oil or the prospect of it brought me. The fates and the future will tell whether or not Prescott is destined to remain, as it now is, the splendid little capital of n live. progressive and prosperous section. which it's situation easily com mands, or by the sudden riches of oil is to become a city of considerable magnitude and pretension. l believe the latter good fortune is in store for Prescott My few days here have been so pleasantly passed that quite aside from any personal interest which I may have, l am sincere well-wisher of the town and the county.
 But I was speaking of first impress sions. If I should leave Prescott to- day and were asked tomorrow to say just what will always he my most forceful impression of it, l should say my surprise at finding here publica-

out of doors until he is big enough
for school. Here he is weighed and
compared with other babies while his
mother is shown how to bathe and
dress him and is given milk formula
for him in case she does not nurse him
herself. In 1921 there were 6,s15 ba-

EyesIon, ana MarksmansnIp.

Some curious researches have been
made by army surgeons to determine
the relationship between good eyesight
and good target practice. It would
appear, at. first glance, that the two
things must invariably depend the one
upon the other. But the facts lead
to different conclusion. At least,
they show that one may have very de-

DENBY STILL PLANS
MODERNIZED FLEET
Considers Making Plea for Appro.
priation to Cover Cost of I'm
proving Battleships.

The question of resubmitting to
Congress the request for an appro-
priation to cover the cost OF modern
izing the battle feet, Secretary DENLY
said yesterday, is still under consid-
Grafton. The last Congress appro-
priated $6,5O0.o00 for the work, but
the entire amount will be turned back
to the Treasury at the end of the
fiscal year, June so, because of criti-
cism of statements by representatives
of the Navy Department. afterward
corrected, that similar work was be-
ing pushed by Great Britain.
Secretary DENLY and some other
government officials are understood
to be in favor of general negotiation
among the powers signatory to the
Washington naval treaty with view
to settling the legality of moderniza-
tion of capital ships before altera-
tions are undertaken. At the same
time, 1t was pointed out. the view of
the powers could be obtained upon
