To the people of Arizona I consecrate mv whole service, referent lv- invoking the help of Almighty God for strength, wisdom and fidelity. With the termination of the world war, Arizona, in conjunction with every other state In the union. Is on the threshold of a period of reconstruction. Individuals, as weii as the state, must pursue different courses from those imposed by war conditions; industries will face new and perplexing problems; public policies which have been adequate in the past will now be hopelessly Ineffective. The world ha been shaken to its foundations, and while the bed-rock of our body politic remains intact, the shattered walls of our civili zation must be rebullded.

The structure wnicn will replace the demolished one must be of such material and construction that it can never be rent asunder by any force of man. Sees Broader Democracy. WTe will do well to heed the warning ol one of our eminent statesmen: "The one danger of any reconstruction is not the Invention of the human mind; the danger is in letting go the old before the new Is tested. The ship must not be allowed to drift. We must be sure that we have the lower to take us in the new direction tefore we let go the anchor.

The nation Is ripe, not so much for any one chamte in its way of doing things, as for an extension and broadening of its own old way; We shall reconstruct, build anew, for a broader demoncracy in which men will learn more perfectly to work together, not for the making of a great state, but, on the contrary, for the mak ing of more self-owned and growing in dividuals." First Duty to Returned Soldier. Thinking men and women know the first few months of peace will present problems equally or more serious than those which confronted us prior to our entry Into the war. It was much easier to sever the business and financial interests of our loyal men and send them abroad to perpetuate liberty than it will be to receive back and return to thm the business and financial interests they left. They accomplished nobly the mis sion we sent them to perform. Now, the 1 'of nations.

He will be buried on a knoll overlooking Long Island sound, a plot which he and Mrs. Roosevelt selected soon after he left the White House. In the words of the clergyman who will conduct the funeral service, 'America's most typical American," known in every corner of the earth, will go to his grave as a "quiet, democratic.

Christian country gentleman beloved by his neighbors."

Lieutenant Quentln Roosevelt, who lost his life in a battle with a German airman, last July. Grief Hastened End. The death of Colonel Roosevelt is believed by the physicians who attended him to have been hastened by grief over Quentin's death, coupled with anxiety over the serious wounds suffered by Cap tain Archie Roosevelt while, lighting in France.

He was proud of his soldier sons and their heroism, but he was a devoted father and he grieved for the one who gave his life for his country, as well as for the other who was wounded. He hid his suffering from the world, however, In the hot that he might set an example for other fathers and mothers who had given their sons to the nation. Preached "Americanism" To Last. To the last. Colonel Roosevelt had been preaching and few realized that his health had been shattered.

It was believed that the rugged aonstitu- tion which had stood him in good stead through so many years "strenuous life would not fail him and that he would regain his usual health. His messages of late, however, had been delivered through the medium of editorials or public statements, Instead of as addrsses. Even to his neighbors in Oyster Bay. It seemed impossible that life had ended so suddenly for the Rough Rider hero of Spanish War days; the statesman who, as governor of New York and president, had wielded the "big; stick' so fearlessly; the big game hunter of tropical Jungles; the citizen who preached preparedness long before his country entered the world conflict.

Theodore Roosevelt's death came as a shock to Paris, which was unaware of his illness. The public had been expecting the fulfillment of his proposed visit to France. J. J.
