dress Class
More than one throat in the audi
ence of 1,500 at the commencement
exercises at Phoenix Union high school
last night was constricted with emo
tion at the sight of the 154 members
of the graduating class marching to
their positions on the platform to the
solemn cadence of music by the school
orchestra, to be together for the last
time before receiving their passports
into, the realms of new activity.
The stadium back of the auditorium
was filled with friends and relatives of
the class, anxious and proud to be
present at the ceremony which would
crown , the four years of work at high
school : done by the young men and
women who were this night to put be
hind them the happiest days of their
lives. ;
Profj Lee Ellison Bassett of Stan
ford university, in his address to and
lrr behalf of the class, happily termed
last night's event as the hilltop in te
lives of the young people on the plat
form with him. In making this simile
Professor Bassett effectively used a
' letter written by the poet. Lowell, to
one of his friends while etill a young
man. 1
The Material and Higher Things
He declared that in using the knowl
edge gained at school in later life it is
a prime necessity that the graduates
live and make their living honorably.
Kverybody in this world lives a double
life, he continued, explaining that the
one involved the striving for material
things; and the other ' consisted of the
higher, moral and spiritual thfngs.
In his address the professor spoke
at length on the subject of poetry, and
justified its existence by explaining
what and why it is. The general con
demnation of many people of this form
of art he attributed to lack of under
standing of the reason and purpose of
poetry,: which he then v.-ent on to ex
plain, illustrating his points with ex
amples from the pen of great Ameri
can poets.
Professor Bassett, who is high in the
public speaking department at Stan
ford, is himself an accomplished elo
cutionist, and in giving a few demon
strations of his art, won the complete
admiration of the audience. By clever
ly Inserted witticisms the speaker kept
the audience in good humor, adding
greatly to the interest of the address.
Urges More Reading
In closing. Professor Bassett urged
that more reading be done at home.
The reading of good books, prose and
poetry he declared would do more to
ward the binding of families closer to
gether than any other form of enter
tainment. He also pointed out the
value of memorising poetry, which he
said would always be a source of
strength.
The salutatory was delivered by
Mary Tice, who in a well constructed
and easily delivered address, made a
distinct impression oa her hearers.
Ferguson Burton, who by his excel
lent school record earned the privilege
of delivering the valedictory address,
spoke in a distinct manner that car
ried to the farthest corner of the large
stadium.
Compliment Students On Work
Principal Daniel F. Jantzen, in pre
senting the class to the board of edu
cation, headed by B. P. McFall, touched
on the: splendid achievements of the
students during their four years at
Phoenix high. He called the attention
of the audience to the fact that the
class this year is unique in thai it con
tains two sons of Gov. Thomas E.
Campbell. He also pointed out that
the first native American Indian girl
in the history of the school was to re
ceive her diploma with the class.
B. F. McFall, in his acceptance
speech on behalf of the board of edu
cation. In turn presented the class to
Governor Campbell, who was a guest of
honor of the evening.
The governor, on rising to accept
the honor, declared that only the fact
that his arms were inadequate to sc
tremendous a task prevented him from
carrying out his wish to embrace tht
entire class. He expressed himself as-
being proud to have two sons mem
bers of such a distinguished body of
students, which he said represented a
cross section of the entire valley. All
he stated, were leveled to one plane by
the democracy of education, which is
the element that makes the United
States the only country of Its kind
on the earth.
Diplomas Are Presented
Before taking his seat, the governor
sursrested that the class motto. "In
dustry. ; Intelligence, Intellect," be In
creased bv one more "1", namely, in'1
tcgrity. This combination he said
would unfailingly spell success.
At the conclusion of the governor's
speech, the diplomas were presented
by Mr. McFall, mid ringing cheers by;
the spectators.
The benediction was pronounced by
Rev. S. J. Rogers, after which the
students were congratulated by their
many friends before the fir.nl pande
monium of departure brought (he eve
ning to a close.

VIOLATORS TO FIND
FJEW TAGS ON AUTOS
Notice: To driver of car No. . You
are hereby notified to appear before
the city magistrate at the city hall.
Phoenix, Arizona, on at m., for
violation of city ordinance No. 312.
Failure to comply with this notice will
cause your arrest upon warrant. Geo.
O. Brisbois, chief of police.
New tags bearing this notice have
just been received by the police de
partment and Chief of Police Brisboia
promises to introduce them today.
Sergeant Duncan will supply all his
traffic men with a sufficient number
of these notices to tag all motor cars
which have not been parked in accord
ance with the new traffic ordinance.
Attached to these notices is a little
memorandum for the officer, which he
tears off at the time he tags a car.
This will greatly facilitate the work
of the traffic officers and enable tbem
to keep a closei watch on parked cars.
Under the old method the officer was
obliged to fill out a tag and then make
a tedious copy of the notice in a mem
orandum book.
Because the traffic ordinance now in
effect was only recently passed and the
motoring public was - not thoroughly
familiar with its provisions, Judge
Thcmaa has been lenient with offend
ers, but motorists who find the new
tag: on their cars may expect to pay
a fme for their offense.
"We don't want to work a hardship
on any one driving a motor car. but
double parking and heading Into th
curbing must be stopped," Chief Bris
boia said when commenting upon the
new tags. "Traffic in this city is be
coming too heavy to permit any 'Jay'
driving and ail the provisions of the
ordinance must be observed. If the
public would cooperate with the police
department we would have a very har
monious traffic system.
OBSERVE MEMOIL

The banks and the Merchants' and
Manufacturers' association yesterday

suance of the custom of observing
Monday when Memorial Day or other
holidays fall on Sunday. The Phoenix
chamber of commerce will close its

statement:
"The American Legion prefers that

late war and since a few years after
the war between the states. In the
Interam Interest in Memorial (lay was
permitted to lag. Now tribute will be
paid to the memory of the new dead

principles of their day, for humanlt
and the home. These things are sacreo.

sent a communication to the board f

meeting. The communication is as
follows:
Hon. W. K. Bowen, Chairman, Board
ot" Supervisors. Phoenix, Arizona.
My Dear Mr. Bowen: A meeting of
the board of directors of the Cham
ber of Commerce, together with the
Good Roads committee of the Cham
ber of Commerce, was held at the Wa
ter Users' building on Wednesday, May
2(J, at 2 p. m.
At this meeting there were present
representatives from the board of su
pervisors and fro mthe Maricopa
County Highway commission.
The matter of additional bond issue
to complete the program of paved
highways prepared by the County
Highway commission was discussed.
The meeting considered all angles of
the situation and concluded with the
unanimous opinion of those present,
that a petition be immediately insti
tuted and presented to the board of
supervisors, calling for an election to
vote four and one-half million dollars
worth of bonds to complete the road
system outlined on the highway com
mission's map; construction to be not
less than a 16 foot roadway, 6 mcnes
thick, as provided in the specifications
in the contract which the highway
commission now has with Twohy
Brothers.
In addition to completing the sys
tem outlined on the commission's map,
the amount mentioned will provide for
the paving of the Phoenix-Glendale
road; the completion of the Tempe
Buckeye road, and such other connect
ing links which the highway commis
sion may deem of advantage to the en
tire project.
It is understood that while the elec
tion will be called at an early date, it
will not be necessary to sell bonds for
one year at least and probably not for
two years.
The meeting Instructed the roads
committee to prepare a communica
tion to be addressed to the supervisors,
outlining the result of the meeting, and
we now take pleasure in presenting
to you this letter as the request of the
meeting for action on the part of your
honorable body.
The commitee desires at this time to
offer Its services in any way in fur
thering this matter, believing that by
the procedure outlined the very best
results will be secured to all sections
of Maricopa county, and that the con
struction of the highway system on
permanent basis will bring benefits to
the county much greater than the cost
of same.
Yours very truly,
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE,

II POLICE COURT
The law says it is wrong, but here is
the story of Joe Moreno and Ellen
Arviza as told by them in police court
ican. He is t'iriftv and believes in
meeting his obligations. Ellen Arviza
bravely has fought her way through
many troubles. According to the story
told Judge ' Thomas yesterday, Ellen
Arviza. was married in 1912. About
four years later her husband forced
her !i.nd their three-year-old son out
of their home, she said. Since that
time he has not contributed anything
to their support the judge was told.
When Ellen Arviza became sick
about six months ago and was forced
to give up the work by which she eked
out a living for herself and her son,
now seven years old. Joe Moreno be
came interested in her welfare. He
called a doctor to attend her and min
istered to her wants, taking up the
financial burden of the little household.
Joe concentrated all his care and at
tention upon the unfortunate Mexican
woman.
Somehow Arviza learned that the
wife he was alleged to have deserted
was attracting the attention of another
man. There had been no divorce. Ar
viza. complained to the police and the
arrest of Joe Moreno and Elien Arviza
followed.
"Wre want so much to get married
judse," Joe told the court.
"The womar must have a divorce
from her husband before you can be
married." Judge Thomas explained.
"All right judge, I ray for lawyer so
sho pet divorce.
Warning the
against the law
gether until they
Tlien we be married,
couple that it was
for them to live to
werc legally married.
Judge Thomas released them under
suspended sentence.
