Maricopa's Glorious Dead
j During the great war, sixty-eight sons of Muri-
iopa county gave their lives that America might I've,
t'joc from the domination of a ruthless autocracy.
J Next Saturday that those high sacrifices may bo
i binmemorated, a great air tournament will he held
T.
Hi the state fair grounds to lay the foundation of a
iimd for the creation of a permanent memorial, that
die recollection of those devoted men may he kept
fresh, and that their heroic deeds may inspire future
fenerations.
It would not seem necessary to appeal to the' pa
triotic men and women of Maricopa to pay tribute
those who have so bravely died, by attending this
-rivat tournament.
We believe that the spirit of Frank Luke and the
ojher devoted men who have made the great sacrifice
still lives in the hearts of the people from among
tfiiom they went to the war. The best way to give
expression to that spirit to prove that it still exists,
is by attendance at the tournament, an outpouring,
a. universal tribute to the brave men who have given
' Our County Highway System
I"; The Maricopa county highway commission which
lias charge of the work of constructii'.ij 272 miles ol
)ermanent highways in this county, ha:i entered upon
itl task vigorously and is holding daily sessions at
which the problems in this great undertaking arc
being considered. Some of these problems are lega',
some are psychological, though for the most part,
i (fey are physical and to all of them must be brought
a soundness of judgment and a firmness of decision.
-Vfter all, what is going to count most in our high
vw.y development, is straightforward, business ad
ministration. 5'. The members of the commission are all men of
t.
i,ood business standing, and they have every oppor
tunity to make a record which will be a credit to
tjvm and Maricopa county. We wish them well, and
al" every step of the work want to be in a position
tb give them thoroughgoing support in putting into
?Rect a business-like, non-political plan of road con
struction. rj The need of good roads in this county and -the
jrifidence of our people in the ability of the present
commission to give them the right kind of a system
i good roads, has been very clearly demonstrated in
the overwhelming support of the bonds at the recent
ejection.
f To say that we should have the best roads and
tj most of them for the money, is trite. That is
Jfodisputed, but how to put such a policy into action
blithe problem that confronts the commission, and in
successfully solving this problem they ar bound to
rim across and have to overcome much of human
Styed and human selfishness, but there are certain
principles of definite action which are bound to spell
uccess it put into effect.
Firtt. The definite need of developing the
highway plans along such lines as will bring the
most active competition in road construction
among contractors ot various classes of perma
nent highways, and material men generally
Second. The preparation of complete practical
specifications designed to give the maximum life
to the roads under the conditions existing in this
fclimate, and with the soil conditions prevailing,
tin this work, we believe the commission should
jseek, and can undoubtedly obtain, the advice and
jj co-operation of the United States federal bureau
! of good roads, who might also be induced to detail
a man to this county to work in co-operation
twith the commission.
f Third. The appointment of inspectors for tho
, work under progress of such high character and
'trained ability that no slipshod or inferior work
''will be accepted. This necessarily means that in
spectors must be selected solely on the basis of
the;r qualifications and character, and without
jthe slightest regard to their political influence or
affiliations. ,
i An exceedingly important thing to be considered
in working out a plan which will mean the lowest
possible cost per mile oX road building is that arrange
ments should be made so that the commission may
t8 in a position to get in on the ground floor on
cjment, gravel, and sand, the most important ele
ments in road construction. Many counties in under
taking a great constructive plan, such as the good
roads in Maricopa county, have found it best to con
trol these sources of supply. We understand that
the commission is giving this question most careful
attention, and if it is worked out successfully, it
cfjould mean a great saving in the final cost of the
load system.
j We believe the commission realizes the tremendous
importance of the task ahead of them and will not
aljow themselves to be led into the quusmires which
l.sjvc so off n interfered with the succrss of rond con
dtuctlon progiams in other sections.
Labor and the League
The objections raised by Andrew Furuseth the
labor leader, second only to Mr. Gompcrs, to the
League of Nations will no doubt be made use of by
other opponents of the league especially the un
qualified statement, "11 ttie League covenant is
adopted it will become a part of the supreme law of
the United States and thus will be the last expression
of legislation and therefore, will be the real legisla
tion of the country. Tet some people say it has noth
ing to do with our internal affairs. If the American
people and American labor agree to this it becomes
the law of the United States and it cannot be amended
except by unanimous consent of all or on the battle
field." Mr. Fursueth is partly right and partly wrong.
His statement that the League provides for a super
legislature is probably true as to those matters agreed
upon in the covenant with respect to labor and which
are somewhat at Variance with the agreement reached
in the labor conference at which Mr. Gompers pre
sided ,and whose work he so greatly influenced. If
the covenant should be ratified by the senate with
fhe consent ef labor which has now been given, labor
would b'e estopped from asking for legislation which
would contravene the covenant. Therefore, the co
venant so far as it affects labor in flu's or any other
country would he the last legislative expression.
7'hai, though, t'.s not true generally .is to the
ef Lect of the covenant upon alt legislation. No douVtt
we will find in case of its ratification that here and
there it will impinge upon the constitution. Wherever
it may happen to do so the covenant will get the
worst of it. The covenant and the constitution must
, harmonize by the amendment, if necessary, of one or
the other, or the United States will he forced by the
American people to drop out of the Leagi!e.
One argument which from the beginning Ameri
cans have brought against the League was that it
offered the United States nothing but an opportunity
for sacrifice. But the covenant has been so amended
that our sacrifices will necessari'p be trivial and
will be much more than offset by the eoniribut;n to
world peace which our participation will make.
The case of labor though, is quite different. It
had everything to lose and nothing to gain. As was
first proposed American labor, if it could not raise
labor in other countries to its own high level must
descend toward a lower level. In the labor confer
ence, the American delegates considered only the
raising of the level abroad and not the descending
of the American level. In the modified labor
clauses, however, many of the conditions agreed
upon in the conference by which the American stand
ard had been adopted have been omitted. Not only
was the principle of the Seamen's Act, of which Mr.
Furuseth was the father, rejected, and only a weak
denial is made of -the doctrine that labor is stilla
commodity.
Women and the Church
We see by a late dispatch that the Irish Protest
ant Episcopal Church at a recent meeting in Dublin
voted against the admission of women to representa
tion in the church; that is, to woman suffrage in
church government. The Irish church some years
ago was severed from the Church of England, and
since then has been a democratic body, but the men
alone have directed its affairs.
The chief argument for the admission of women
to a voice in the church was the same its that we
have heard more recently in this country in support
of the argument in favor of woman suffrage the
heroism, the patriotism and the effective service of
women in the war . '
The churches generally here, as well as , abroad,
have withheld from women the privilege of full par
ticipation in their activities and the exercise of-that
privilege has never been strongly insisted upon
whether because the women have not jet come to
care for a voice or whether they regard the church
as impregnable against attack and so are content
with the opportunities afforded them for service in
Dorcas societies, Ladies' Aids and other auxiliary
bodies.
But the action of the Irish Church stands out
by reason of tho question raised as to how many of
tho members of the synod who voted against woman
suffrage in the church are among those who are
demanding the independence of Ireland, a separation
from Great Britain as thorough as the separation of
the Irish Church from the Established Church.
The ."Producer"
We have at hand the initial number of the
"Producer," the official organ of the American Na
tional Live Stock Association, published at Denver.
The managing editor is T. W. Tomlinson, for many
years the efficient secretary of the association, who
has been much more than a secretary a director of
the various activities of the association in all matters
which concern the live stock industry.
The "Producer" is a handsome journal mechani
cally, and is filled vith articles which are of the fore
most interest to stockmen, the ten principal ones
dealing with one problem or another of the stock
men, such as the forest service, marketing, a Cana
dian reciprocity treaty, the Kendrick bill, etc.
There is a general article on government matters.
A general review, a series ot interesting and in
structive editorials. Other features appeal to tha
other members of the stockman's family. The wom.-.n's
corner, the kids' corral, the poet's pen, and the spice
box. Altogether it is a well balanced monthly which
cannot fail to come quickly into popular favor n-.t
only with stockmen but with all who recognize that
the stock industry is one which touches all ot us.
The "Producer" displaces none of the many al
ready established and excellent liv estock journals,
each of which will continue to serve its purposes and
yield usefulness to the industry. The aim of the
"Producer" is set out thus: "To serve as a clearing
hor.se for the col lection and dissemination "of. the
soundest opinion, most authoritative information
relative to live stock conditions everywhere."

Bob's Great Need cf My Help Opens a restaurant this Miss Manning gives
New Paths to Me
The advice of my loyal knight seemed
excellent. 1 followed it. I did not ven
ture into the street next day and so
the hours dragged heavily, each one
weighted with some fresh anxiety
about. Bub's condition. At last the
hotel phone summoned me to the par
lar. Something in Tommy's manner as
I greeted him made my heart stand
still.
Tommy is always slow of speech, but
it seemed to me as I awaited his re
port that he had been stricken dumb.
Finally I had to demand abruptly:
"What did Daddy Lorimer say?"
"Bob ain't dangerously sick, ma'am,
exactly. You needn't be alarmed about
his living." Tommy came to a full stop
and 1 felt sure he was trying to break
some hard news very gentlv.

"What happened next?" I gasped.
"Of course, Searle thought you was
dead and your last nime had got left

Bob seemed to get sort o confused
right away, and Searle tried to look
after him, hut Bog got away the next
day and was lost most a week till an
M. P. picked him up. He was a little
off in his mind, ma'am."
"Do you mean to tell me that my
husband is insane?"
I seized the lapels of Tommy's coat
to keep my knees from bending be

do -was to grasp my wrists and hold

A. The Naval Observatory says. that
the best optical means which human
genius can devise show from a billion
to a billion and a half stars, and this
number is supposed to be close to the
total number of existing stars. How
ever, only about 2,500 can be seen even
on the clearest, frostiest night, by the
naked eye.
Q. How many men by the name of
Smith were in the army? Y. T. C.
A. There were more Smiths in the
army than men of any other name.

QUESTIONS i
AND ANSWERS j
It is probably true that more ques
tions from the readers of newspapers
to their editors have been answered
by Frederick J. Haskin, Director of
the Arizona Republican Information
Bureau, in Washington, than by any
other man dead or alive. It is his
business to answer questions. He is an
investigator, writer, traveler, of long
experience, is the author of a num
ber of hooks on the government, lie
is strategically located at the nation's
capital, and knows the keys that will
open the various storehouses of
knowledge that have been built up by
the government.
Here are some of the questions that
have been answered recently by this
bureau that is now at the service of the
readers of the Arizona Republican.
What do you think of them?
Q. Can the United States talk to
Europe by wireless telephone'.'K.
A. Yes; not long ago Arlington sta
tion, near Washington talked to Eiffel
lower, in Paris, and another station
in Honolulu overheard the canversa-tion.
Q. What new nations have been
created as a nesult of the war. A. M. B.
A. Czechoslavakia. Jusoslavia. Po
land, Finland, and Hedjaz, have so far
taken form:' . The three former are
republics, the two latter, monarchies.
Q. Is a corpulent person necessarily
a neavy eater ' s. A. D.
A. ies. The experts tell us that
the person who carries too much flesh
cais too mucn toou. Mesh can no
more be built without the materials
that constitute it, than a house can be
built without bricks or lumber. There
lore, by a proper restriction of the
amount of food taken into the system,
any person can reduce his weight to
the proper figure.
Q. What became of the large flocks
of wild pigeons that formerly lived in
tnis country? F. E.
Rome but the English did not reeog-
i nize him.
Q. Why is the Chicago river called
the smallest but richest river in th
world? H. M. G.
A. The Chicago River which is less
than a mile in length, is the harbor
of Chicago. So the wealth of the water
traffic of Chicago may be said to be the
wealth of the Chicago River, making
this stream the smallest and richest of
rivers.
Q. What is the definition of eligibil
ity to membership in the American
Legion? S. A. P.
A. Any individual who served hon
orably in the army or navy of the
United States between the date of our
entrance into the war and the signing
of the armistice, or who served in the
armies of our allies at any time during
the war, is eligible to membership in
the American Legion. This includes
yoemen (f) and army and navy nurses.
Q. Are men who have served in the
war given any preference when they
want to enter Civil Service? C. E. G.
A. Yes. A service man may pass a
Civil Service examination with a mark
of sixty-five, while others must get
seventy. He may secure temporary
appointment of three months prior to
taking examinations. He is given
preference in appointment over non
service applicants of the same rating.
Physical requirements tor specnic po
sitions for which he has taken voca
tional training are waived.
Q. When did the first steamship
cross the Atlantic?. C. O. B.
A. One hundred years ago on the
22nd day of May of this year, the first
steamship, the Savannah, sailed from
the port for which it was named,
reaching Liverpool twenty-nine days
and eleven hours later.
Q. What is the longest of our geo
graphical Indian? names? H. G. N.
A. The longest of these names is
probably that of Lake Chargogagog
m a u n chaugagogchebunnygungamaug.
This lake is in Massachusetts and its
ffitme has recently been changed to
Lake Webster. The word is of Algon
quin origin and is said to mean "How
o the Civil War? R. W. H.
A.- American casualties at Argonne
Meupe were 1S.3 per cent of those en
gaged. At Gettysburg the casualties
were 20 per cent, at Afurphysboro, 23
per cent, at Shiloh, 24 per cent, and at
CbAckamauga, 1 per cent.
Q. How widespread is the use of
the Metric system ? F. It. G.
A. The Metric system is used in
every civilized country in the world,
with the exception of England and the
the United States. Ail Latin American
countries, for instance, use it. It has
been officially adopted China. The
American Expeditionary Force found it
necessary to use it in France. The war
has given impetus to a campaign for
its adoption by the United States
which is now being vigorously pushed.
i. What was the greatest number
of men in the United States army dur
ing the Civil War? M. C. M.
A. The highest figure reached was
1160,962 officers and men.
Q. Did the American Red Cross
care for the American soldiers wound
ed in France? R. F. B.
A No. They were cared for by the
Medical Corps of the army with its own
enlisted personnel and nurse corps.
Q. Who originated the Daylight
Saving Plan? D. J. G.
A. The idea was originated by Ben
jamin Franklin. The modern proposal
came first from an Englishman, Wil
liam Willett, in 1907, wbo published a
pamphlet called "Waste of Daylight."
tj. is it a mark of disrespect to bury
the United States Hag in the coffin of
a civilian? M. P. M.
A. There is no ruling of the War
Department against burying the flag
with either a soldier or a civilian. It
is not the custom to bury it with sol
diers. An American civilian dying
abroad might quite properly have a
tlag buried with him. The good taste
of burying the flag with a civilian who
had rendered no specia lserviee, under
it might be questioned.
Q. Who was the inventor of the gai
engine motor which drives automobiles
and airplanes? E. B.
A. Charle3 Shelden, in 1S72, invented
tho internal combustion engine, which
drove the first gas automobile.
Q. Who was the first woman in the
United States advocating woman suff
rage? E. V. P.
A The first woman to make this
demand, so fa'- as lenewn. was Mistress
Margaret Br.'.V.. cf Maryland, in 1647.
She was the heii of Lord Calvert, the
brother of Lord Baltimore, and as rep- ;
re&en,t.tion in the Vtgisiature ot M iry- ;.
land was based on property, ne d-
manded "place, and voice" In thir
body. Her petition wa hotly debated
and finally denied.
Q. What is tne origin ot the name
of the city of Paris? L. L. D.
A. In 53 B. C. when Caesar con
quered Gaul. Paris was called Gallic.
Lutetia (Mud-townl. Al that time it
was inhabited by a Celtic tribe, the
Parisii. They burned their town
rather than surrender to Caeaar, so
that general ordered that a new town
be built at the same time and be called
after the tribe, Parisii. This was the
original form of the present name
Paris.
Q. If a man forges my name to a
check and if there are extenuating cir
cumstances, have I a right to decline
to prosecute him? W. B.
A. No. His offense is not against
you. but against the state. The proper
agency to weight the facts, to consider
the extenuating circumstances, is a
court. When you fail to present the
facts of a violation of the law to the
authorities, you are failing in your
duty as a citizen. You are becoming
a telf-constittited court, a thing which
you have no right to do.
Q. What is the governing hody ot
the Christian Science Church? How is
its personnel determined? C. J. G.
A. The Christian Science Board of
Directors is the governing body of the
Christian Science Church. The hoard
fills vacancies in its membership by
vote of the remaining members, it was
originally appointed by Mrs. Eddy.
Q. What artist is held to be the
father of painting? M. V. B.
A. The term has been applied to
Michelangelo Buonarotti. who was borr
in Florence, Italy, in loSi. His great
est works were done in Rome where
he founded a school which was al
together dominated by bis personality.
Some of his famous paintings are in
the Vatican at Home, notably "Thr
Last Judgment" in the Sistine ch&pe'i
on which Michelangelo worked seven
years. In spite of bis ability as
painter, however, it was as a sculpter
that be wished to excel. I
Q. What picture may be said to be
the most famous in the world? A. T.
A. Raphael's "Sistine Madonna" if
generally regarded as the most famous.
The original is kept in a gallery bv
itself, in Dresden, Germany.
Q. What are the seven Bibles oi
the world? A. M. M.
A. The books which are ca)led th
seven bibles of the world are the Koran
of the Mohammedans, the Eddas of the
Scandinavians, the Try Pitkes of the
Buddhists, the Five Kings of the
Chinese, the Three Vedas of the Hin
doos, the Zendavesta of the Persians,
and the Scriptures of the Christians.
Q. What is the language of the
Lithuanians? A. M. ... v
A. While in no sense a pure lan
guage, that which is spoken by the
Lithuanians is the nearest to the an
cient Sanskrit of any modern language
and is practically the same as that in
which the Vedas or the sacred books of
India are written. The Lithuanians
are probably the best preserved ex
amples of the Indo-Europeans who
formed the most important basis of the
races of West Europe.
Q. Wrhat is the Gila Monster?
Describe it. B. K.
A. The Gila Monster, the only
poisonous lizard inhabiting the United
States, is found in the deserts of Ari
zona and New Mexico. Its form and
skin are unlike that of other lizards.
The body is covered with bead-like
points in places of scales, and is short
and thick. A full grown Gila Monster
measures from a foot and a half to two
feet long. The usual color is salmon
pink spotted wjth black. Its movements
are slow and clumsy, and its bite Is
likely to cause death.
Q. What is th longest word in the
English language? A. 8.
A. The longest word in the English
language is: ''disestablishmentarian-

was supposed to be the last survivor
of the species died at the Zoological
Gardens in Cincinnati in 1914. When
this country was first settled flocks
of these pigeons were so numerous
that they would darken the skies in
flying overhead. They would light so
densely in forests as to break great
limbs from trees. The birds were beau
tiful and very excellent eating. The
ease with which they might be killed
led to their extermination when the
country settled up. n
Q. Was there ever a king who was
also a Pope at the same time? F. H.
A. Yes. Henry VIII, in 1534. while
king of England, was declared by the
Act of Supremacy, "The only supreme
head on earth of the Church of Eng
and," which was at that time Catholic.
There was at that same time a Pope at
I O. Who were the Druids? H. F.
A. The Druids were priests of the
aneienti Britons acting also as phy
sicians, educators, astrologers, magi
cians and lawgivers.
Q. What is a good treatment for
inflammation caused by poison ivy?
F. D. W.
A. One of the best treatments is
