!, RESOLUTIONS OF
JOINT MEETING
. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. .

(These resolutions were adopted at
the recent joint meeting in Flagstaff
of the State Wool Growers and State
Cattle Growers associations.)
Whereas: The united efforts OF the
stockmen and farmers, assisted by the
u. s. biological survey and the Uni
versity of Arizona, has resulted in the
complete determination of the prairie
dogs from the counties of 'Cochise and
Graham, thereby reclaiming 100000
acres of valuable land and eliminating
an annual loss amounting to thousands
of dollars, and,
Whereas: Over 6,OOO,O 900 acres OF
the finest grazing lands in northern
Arizona are so heavily infested with
prairie dogs that the ranges are being
very seriously damaged, and,
Whereas: The appropriations by
congress to the u. S. biological sur
vey for this purpose are proving en-
tirely inadequate to handle this situa-
ton on the federal lands, now, there
fore, be it
Resolved: That we hereby petition
our representatives in congress to se-
cure larger appropriations for this
RuIpOSG 81 SLke&I blLAS vel SVAAVAo 11ACAA~
ace may be overcome.
Whereas: The city and people of
Flagstaff so generously received and
entertained the delegates and visitors
at this fourth joint convention, and,
Whereas: The open-door reception
was so cordially extended and in turn
so graciously received; now, therefore,
be it
Resolved: That we extend our sin
cere thanks and appreciation to the
citizens of Flagstaff and that copy
of this resolution be forwarded to the
mayor Of Flagstaff.
Whereas: The long sought for
changes in the forest grazing regula-
tions have at last been effectively and
successfully brought to a satisfactory
conclusion, through the efforts of the
committee of six representative stock
men of the western states,
Whereas, Fen S. Hildreth as men,
Der of this committee of six, so ably
represented the livestock permittees
Of Arizona, now therefore be it
Resolved: That we most heartily
commend Mr.. Hildreth for his untir-
ing and successful effort in bringing
to speedy conclusion the needed
changes in the forest grazing regula-
Eons.

BY NURA c.. LEANING
The Normal school is built of stone,
AS a temple of learning, is second to
none.
From the tree of knowledge bright
gems we are cullin'.
The school is managed by President
McMullen.
The lectures are given by men of wit,
And we absorb them every bit.
Wonderful talks by talented men
Who earn their living by the fruits
Of their pen.
Writers of poems and writer's of
prose,
We may like them, who knows, who
knows?
Our pathway may lead over or under
the hill,
And all is accomplished by | can and
/ will.
We came to Flagstaff, knowledge to
gain,
And entered the nurses class under
U1lS0 i o. A1Ns
We worked faithfully and close atten-
ton paid,
Now we are capable of giving first
aid.
We then took up sewing to fill up
our cards,
We are cutting and sewing by the bolt
and the yard,
We pin and we sew, we baste and we
rip,
In fitting the neck as well as the hip.
Waist fitting seems so easy,
Our dresses are light and breezy,
What we don't know we are privileg-
ed to ask,
Our teacher is skilled and to help is
no task.
"Your basting is crooked" "Your
stitch is too long,"
"Take that sleeve out, you have it in
wrong"
"You have scalloped your gathers"
"You have puckered your belt,
How little we know is justly felt.
We toll like beavers this knowledge
to gain,
A model of patience is our teacher.
Miss Payne. ss
She helps with our work, and says
with smile,
ITO straighten an error is always
worth while
We sew and we baste and rip it again,
Oh critical, systematical, sympatheti-
tical Miss Payne!
Harmony of color is her long suit,
"That shade is becoming No, she
never says "cute."
We can fit our clothes and do our
own sewing.

Charity Begins at Dawson

1t is irony of fate that the coal mine at Dawson. New
Mexico, in which the lives of l22 unfortunate
snuffed out Friday is owned by the enormously rich
PhelpsDodge corporation.
Irony? Why? Because one of the chief owners and
directors of this tremendous mine is Cleveland Hoadey
Dodge of New York city.
And who, pray is Cleveland Hoadley Dodge? Why,
he is listed in Who's Who brother of the late Grace
Hoadey Dodge, trustee and director Of a long line Of
business industrial educational and philanthropic inst
tuons including Roberts College of Consantinope and
Carnegie Institute in Washington and is treasurer and
chief moving spirit of the American Committee Near
East relief
Every Protestant church of America knows the name OF
Cleveland Dodge for it is he has personally guaran-
teed the cost of administering the millions which has
been raised for relief of the Armenian refugees.
To care for suffering humanity in the Near East or
anywhere is Christian and fine But to have insisted on
safer working conditions in his non-union New Mexico
coal mine would have been finer and it would have
still been Christian.
