Governors Dad, Who Was Page In lst
Territorial Legislature, At Capitol
Monday To Hear Sons Address

in a wheelchair to hear her hus-
bands address. Not a word did
they miss.
There was much applause when
their presence was announced and
in the audience were many folks
who had known Neri Osborn years
and years and others who had
known charming Mrs. Sidney P. Os-
born before she suffered an attack
cf arthritis a year ago last March
q few months after her husband
was elected to his first term as gov
ernor.
Much applause followed the gov
ernCrs remarks that ''in this room
today is my dad and my wife. My
dad was in Arizona when John
Goodwin, the first territorial gov
ernor, addressed the legislature in
1864 He was a page in that legis-
lature.'
He said that few moments be-
fore he began his traditional bi-
ennial address to the lawmakers.
And, as the applause subsidized, a
woman legislator arose and remark
ed: 1--WE may fight with the COVER
ncr sometime but we all love his
wife" The chief executives young
wife was then presented pretty
bouquet.
BORN IN IOWA
Governor Osborn's father was
born in Iowa on April 7, 1855, while
Neri Osborn's parents, pioneers of
Kentucky and Virginia, were en-
route West in prairie schooner for
the benefit of his mothers health
From Iowa they journeyed to Colo
radc Springs, thence to Arizona
settling at Prescott July 4, 1864
and later to Phoenix where Gov
Osborn was born at the northeast
corner of Monroe and Second
streets.
The chief executives mother
daughter of a Confederate soldier
came to Phoenix in 1870. She i.
still living and was SO on January
8. A bad cold kept her away from
the capitol Monday when her dis
tinguished son addressed the new

A period of 79 years-frOm
that day back in the third year
of the Civil War when Neri Os-
born was page in the first
territorial legislature until his
son addressed the 10th state
legislature last Monday-is a
long, long time, Arizona has
had a great growth and Neri
Osborn and the governor, too,
have been important factors in
that growth.
Despite his 88 years Neri Osborn

Improperly Addressed Letters To
Service Men Causing
Needless Confusion, Inconvenience

SAN DIEGO. Jan. 14-Improperly
addressed letters to soldiers anG
sailors are causing needless con-
fusion and inconvenience to ou1
fiohting men on the battle fronts
Known as Mixes" these strayine
letters delay the mails and fail to
zach their destination when most
needed, Eleventh Naval District
mail authorities said today.
Not only is the fighting man de-
prived of a letter from home by
Mixes but they also occupy valu-
able cargo and storage space, hold
up the dispatch of correctly ad-
dressed mail, and immobilize men
needed more urgently on the fight
ing fronts.
With operations of the Army and
Navy on flung fronts, improp-
erly addressed mail literally may
follow a man around the world with
out ever being delivered to him.
Correct addressing of mail neces-
sary to eliminate Mike" mail must
include: Cd the legible and correct
spelling of the mans name, includ-
ing middle name, CD his rank or
rating, 90 serial number for en-
listed men only, and (4) the full
name or number of his ship, unit, or
shore station.
In addition, if the soldier or sailor
is serving outside the continental
limits Of the United States, the mail
must be addressed "Care of Post
master, San Francisco" or Care
of Postmaster, New York City, "
whichever is closest to his ship or
post of duty. The location of ship
upon which a man is serving should
never be included in the address.
V-MAIL
With air cargo space at a premi-
UNI, necessitating the delivery of
much air mail by ship, the use Of
V-mail has great advantages having
priority over all other mail except
