PLANT FAMILY TREE

A handsome totem pole has recently
been erected at Camp Priedlander,
recreation ground of the Cincinnati
scouts. The pole was carved by
Harry Mueller, father of one of the
boys. The emblem represents four
scout -comradeship, wisdom,
industry and honor. First on the way
up the lofty symbol is shown Makua
the bear. The first camp rank is
named after this feature. To obtain
it a candidate must prove himself
trustworthy and an enjoyable COM
panion. Koblet, the beaver, emble-
matte of industry, appears next on
the pole. Koblet stands for the in
dustrious scout and the tireless work
er, and is the patron of the second
rank at camp. Then comes Quanga-
thahrask, the owl. The rank named
from this symbol is to be given to the
camper who exhibits wisdom in ac-
complishing his mental tasks. Kwahu,
the eagle, resting on top of the pole,
represents the rank to be given to the
scout who attains the highest honors
in all-around camp work.

ARIz. LEADS WEST
IN ROAD BUILDING,
SAYS GOVT. REPORT

Arizona showed up better than any
! other large state at the end of last
wear i'm the matter of surfaced roads;
/ California didn't rate so much, ac-
cording to federal department of agri-
culture report.
| Arizona reported 1474.2 miles SUR
faced Of total of 1915 miles of pub
+ lie roads, California only 3433.9 out of
total of 6400.
Colorado, with only 77.6 miles sur
faced during 1924, showed a total Of
1426.4 surfaced out Of 1923, less than
half of its public road system.
Texas also has less than half sur
faced but it's public road mileage is
grand total of 1868. This is more
than the combined totals of Arizona,
Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Mary
land, Massachusetts, Nevada, New
BHampshire, New Jersey and Rhode
Island, which is only 14,914.7 miles.
Texas had 7394.1 miles surfaced at
the end of last year, of which 862
miles or'sahout one-eighth of the pre-
vious total were surfaced during 1924.
New Mexico is getting good start,
the report at the end of 1924 showed,
with 15O4.2 miles surfaced out of a
grand total of 1868 miles. During
that year 1867 miles were surfaced,
more than a third of the previous
total.
Wyoming foots the list with 995.9
miles surfaced out of total of 1887
though 1859 miles were surfaced last
year. During the year $4,000 miles
were surfaced, almost equal to the
distance around the earth.
Gravel led in the surfacing with
1850 miles; concrete came next with
f4850, and sand-clay next with 1885.
Surface treated macadam was fourth
with 1000. Other surfaces were water
bound and hitumious macadam, sheet
asphalt, bituminous concrete, brick
and blocks.
Almost half of the total state sys-
TENS of the country, PSI $40 miles, is
now surfaced, and the agricultural de-
partment predicts road surfacing this
year will be equal to that of last year.

BOOTLEGGING WIDOWS WITH
KIDS ARE HARD PROBLEMS

The old problem of what to do with
Mexican widows with large families
of small children who are arrested for
bootlegging again presented itself to
the federal officers in Globe when
Mrs. Jesus Juarez appeared for ar
raignment before U. S, Commissioner
Hechtman.
Mrs. Juarez was arrested by the
Miami police at her small restaurant.
According to the statement Of the Of
ficers the Mexican lady was enjoying
a brisk trade in retailing beer to some
of her customers. The police found a
five gallon keg of beer and nine pints
of white mule in the establishment
The proprietress readily admitted
to the officers that she was selling
liquor and, pointing to her four small
children, asked them what they were
going to do about it. The police
passed the answer to the question up
to the federal authorities.
In the past county and federal of
ficers have frequently been faced with
the problem Of what disposal to make
of families of small children belong
ing to Mexican widows when the
mothers have been arrested for viola
tions of the liquor laws. For time a
policy of leniency prevailed as the of
ficials did not wish to burden the
county with the care of large floeks
of Mexican children while their
mothers served out Jail sentences inn
posed for selling booze. 1t was found,
however, that leniency was misplaced
in most cases and that when it was
