Efficient Fire Fighting Brigade

Nogales appears to take as a mere matter OF
course its very efficient volunteer fire fighting br
gade which has but recently demonstrated its ability
to save life and property in manner well worthy OF
much more consideration.
The fire at the Ell Paso Store Thursday evening
could we'll have become serious confagration bring
ing immense loss to property holders and to the city
of Nogales but for the quick action of the local fire
department.
Quickly at the scene the apparatus had lines laid
and streams playing the blaze through thick smoke
in record time. Firemen made their way through
smoke filled corridors of the hotel Evans and search
ing rooms for guests several Of whom had been over

Chief Peck was seen carrying an unconscious wo
man through binding and suffocatng smoke Capt.
Camerlin overcome while directing stream from
the top of ladder Other men, holding handkerchefs,
to the mouths, kicked in locked DOORS
Each and every man of Nogales volunteer fire
department was doing his part in saving property.
But their property clothes, hats and shoes, were
being runned for the simple that Nogales has
not seen fit to provide oil SKINS coats, COW
eras part of the equipment of all fire departments,
so that while fighting to property of others their
own could be protected from water smoke and CRIME.

Is it any wonder that an intelligent woman should
stand appalled, when she considers what has happen

When Big Shots Rule

In the northern part Of Ohio there Is Q very ex-
elusive little village Of some 30 inhabitants. nearly
ell Of whom are millionaires.
This village, LIE all others. has its own govern
ment; but this village Is unique In that all Of its
elected officials are rich business men. The mayor,
the councilmen and so on are. in their private lives.
high-pressure executives accustomed to large affairs.
enamored Of efficiency and bred to the orderly con-
duct OF things.
As a result. one would expect this village to have a
city hall fairly reeking with good government.
However, a state examiner recently looked into az
fairs and reported sadly that such was not the case.
lie intimated that somehow these titans Of the busi-
ness world had found the task Of running their own
village a bit too much for them. The council had
not met as often as It should. the mayor had failed to
sign documents he should have signed. certain needed
ordinances had failed Of passage through oversight
and village funds had been spent without proper au-
thority.
There was nothing improper. OF course. no graft, no
padded pay-rolls or anything OF that kind. There
was just a bit OF governmental slovenliness. that was
all. The village fathers we're doing at their posts.
This Is highly unimportant. OF course, but it is rath-
er interesting, and If one tried hard enough one prob
ably could draw some sort Of moral out Of it.
Every so often someone advances the idea that our
city, state and national governments would become,
overnight, all that they ought to be IL only their va
rious pots could be manned by real business men.
The business man has q passion for efficiency and
accuracy. He likes to see every subordinate do a full
days work and he likes to see every dollar In expendi-
lures bring back a dollars worth Of results. These
wholly desirable things are not always visible in gov
ernmental affairs: hence, II Is argued. the remedy is
to fill the big jobs with business men and let them
hop TO It.
Perhaps 1t would work beautifully; but there are
valid grounds for being ~skeptical. Executive talents
that can be exercised admirably in a private office
tend to go under q blight when they are transferred
to a city hall or a statehouse. The Ohio village men
toned above Is a case in point.
AS q matter Of fact.-to leave this diminutive vii
iage out Of 1.-THE defects we observe IN government
are generally the defects that are inherent in DEM
ocracy itself. All along the line. we get Just the kind
or government we deserve. Giving the jobs 70 the
big shots OF the business world will never help 50 long
as we stick to our old habit Of sitting In the sldel!nes
and letting governmental organizations run them
selves.

The Once Over
THE TOM THUMB WEDDING

The marriage Of Miss Ina Short to Mr.. Luke Nudge
took place on q silver dollar in the Little Church
Around the Corner this morning. none Of the obstacles
being sufficient to hamper the happy couple to any
extent.
The ceremony was one Of the briefest on record.
The groom arrived first. making the trip in a Bantam
roadster. The bride followed a few minutes later in
q hamper born by three midgets. Some delay was
occasioned in starting the ceremonies, due to the
fact that the officiating clergyman. the Rev. DR..
6mallman. had some difficulty entering the rectory
through the v~entilator pipe. as required by the rules.
He made it in his fifth attempt. however. which was
two over par.
The bride and groom In marching down the main
aisle had to scale two picket fences. get past a barhed
wire ENHANCEMENT, crawl through a barrel and leap
across two water holes They negotiated the course
without any real difficulty. although the groom failed
10 carry the first water hazard and there was some
argument whether he should be counted as a lost
groom or merely out Of bounds
The brides father, "Dinky" Short. was supposed
to give her away. never did get to the rail. owing to
the fact he was unable to get through the barrel in
the allotted time.
The bride was attended by six Of the most under
nourished girls In town. Her gift to each was a copy
Of the Declaration OF Independence written on the
head Of a pin. The best men were all Lilliputians
loaned by the Radio-Keith circuit.
The Rev. DR.. Snallman read the marriage services
as condensed especially for the occasion by Cal
Coolidge. II consisted Of five words:
Wanna be married7"
yeah"
"Hookedi"
The bride looked bewitching in a mouse -colored
gown with squirrel trimmings and wore low-heeled
shoes In order to look as condensed as possible. She
carried half a bouquet Of dwarf-dahlias and wore
on the end Of her little finger a a wedding ring meant
for a child Of s. The groom sat down during the
service in order to minimize his height.
Immediately after the ceremony the couple left
the church by crawling under a rug to the rear exit
where they boarded the groom's ~kiddy-kar and took
intricate detours to Rhode Island, the smallest state
In the union. where they will spend a few days touring
unposted roads BY night.
They win be at home to their friends at their new
estate at Little Neck. L. T., consisting OF a one-roomed
bungalow on a 80 foot lot, after December q, the
