A paved highway through southern
Arizona would not detract from travel
along the National Old Trails. But if
the latter were paved, or even we'll
surfaced from state line to state line,
it would mean an immediate and tre-
mendous increase in tourist traffic
that would be beneficial to the central
and southern parts of Arizona as we'll
as to the northern section.

Normal has now reached the stage
in its scholastic football where the

The Gangster Complex.

The life and death story of "Bill" Lovett
New York gangster, who has been de-
scribed as soft spoken to women and as
hard as nails to men," and as "a hero in war
and a villain in peace" presents complex
that is battling He was not the first "hero
in war and villain in peace" New York, Chi
cago and other American cities had thous-
ands of men who had been killers and who
went to France and fought like tigers. Not
only that but these men were easy of dis
cipline They obeyed orders. And few OF
them were without courage.
Paris had type of criminal called Apache.
The Apache was supposed to be about as
ruthless as a criminal could be- They an
swered the call to the colors in the early
days of the war; went to the front and fought
bravely in some of the bloodest engagements.
Most of them made the best of soldiers. At
terward it was the same story as may be
told frequently of the American gangsters
who came back The Apaches, too went
once AGAIN to their old haunts, having shown
their mettle in war but without having been
cured
"Bilf" Lovett was that kind of gangster,
vet he had a chance to redeem himself after
wears of crime He had married some three
months before his death. His wife prevailed
upon him to get away from New York, and
he crossed over to New Jersey and got
lob. He promised her he would not cross
the river again and mix up with the denizens
Of the old life he had known. But, he did, and
the "hero of war and villain of peace" went
his way by the same route he had sent 9TH
ers "He was thoroughly bad" said police
captain "and the police are not sorry he IS
gone. He seemed to kill for the love of it.
Maybe that explains this strange complex. 1t
may be that gangsters made good soldiers
because they got wide open opportunities to

RiIIboards Under Ban.

All billboards that have been erected on
highways in Minnesota are to be removed
under law which stipulates that signs will
have to make their exit by December LIST.
That Minnesota will be more attractive to
travellers on the highways after the last OF
the biboardS come down is assured. Not on
~ will the landscape be protected Tor its
panoramic beauty, but another objective VIII
be ganed-that of preventing Instructions
to vision at dangerous road intersections,
railroad crossings and perilous curves. 1hlS
was one of the strong points when the bill
was brought up before the legislature 1t
was argued that not only was the view OF
dangers INSTRUCTED by the billboards in some
instances. but that in all there was great
element of danger because of distraction OF
the travellers attention from existing peris.
The Minnesota law probably will not elm
mate altogether the highway biboards En-
terprising billboard companies that, under the
law, will be prohibited from using the high
way, which is state property, may be able
to erect their huge signs on farm lands that
border the roads For a consideration some
of the farmers, no doubt will agree that this
NAV be done but others may be depended
upon to aid the state in carrying out the spirit
Of the law by refusing to allow billboards
on their properties.
In Kansas City the daily Star has been

be observed that in Minnesota Ray 2. Chase,
state auditor, referred, in defending the law, to
the fact that the change will work no hardship
on advertisers, "snce the newspapers OF the
state are entirely adequate to carry their
messages to the public" Publishers generally
agree that elimination of Billboard advertising
does not increase materially the volume of
business their publications carry. Practically
every billboard advertiser also advertises in
the newspapers and magazines.
There is much more billboard advertising
in this country than in any other in the
world European visitors always comment on
the biboards they see when touring the
United States. Various civic organizations
in this country, including some in Georgia.
have opposed billboard advertising for years.

the highways altogether the countryside
would be far more attractive than it IS.

Turkeys From Argentina.
From the New York Herald.

Turkeys, once so common here that the
forests were said to be "the pioneers pou1-
try yard" are being imported into the Unit
ed States in ever increasing numbers. Canada
has long been a source of turkey supply for
this country, but this year many an American
Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner will have
as its center of attraction a turkey raised on
the other side of the equator.
Improved refrigerator service between
Buenos Ayres and New York has developed
trade in poultry imports from Argentina
to the United States, with turkeys having the
preference at this season. In September eigh-
ty-one tons of Argentine turkey were import
ed, in October more than one hundred, and
it is expected that this figure will be surpass-
ed in November and December.
AS human population increases in the
United States turkey population decreases.
From 1910 to 1920 the number of turkeys in
the country decreased from 3,689,000 to g.
OF 900, decline of $1,000 birds. This de
cline is likely to continue. Turkeys are still
half wild birds, requiring a wide range. Ex-
tremely hard to raise, they are equally hard
to protect.
Although the price of turkeys at the farm
rose from IS to 80 cents a pound between
1914 and 1923 turkey raising remains small
unit business, with the small flock of the
farmers wife dominating the market stua-
