NEAREST THE FARCE
 BUT STILL SERIOUS
However, Laughter and Merriment
 Reign Supreme.

''The Tanning of / the Shrew." in which Charles E. Hanford is' announc- ed to appear at the Mesa opera house, on Friday. January 14. comes nearer to the so-called farce comedy than any other Of the immortal bard's great works. for while there are moments of serious suggestion. probably more on account of the beautiful poetic lan- guage than of theme. the evening of it's presentation is given up to merri- ment and laughter reigns supreme.
 While Mir. Hanford has appeared at various times in nearly all the acted Shakespearean plays he has manifSst- ed a fondness for the character of "Petruchio." at least it would appear so for it never fails to find a prom inent place in his repertory and it is a matter of record that it never fails in it's mission to please.
 The responsibility for the success of The Tanning of the Shrew" has not alone been MT. Hanford for it is very essential that the part of Katherine should be in able hands and the achievement of Miss Marie Drofnah in continually dividing the honors with Mir. Hanford gives added assurance of an enjoyable performance. The cast is one of excellence and numbers among its members many who have made a name for themselves in legiti- mate roes The scenic production will be a feature as will the costuming, for the play affords abundant opportunity for lavish display.

MESA DEPARTMENT
GRAIN FIELDS WHERE
 DESERT BRUSH GREW
Pumping Plants are Solving the Irri-
 sation Problem.

The familiar story of the desert be- ing made to thrive and produce food for man is emphatically proved again. according to W. D. McBrayer. who came to Mesa this morning after a protracted stay on his ranch several miles south of town. The government and private. individuals are finding ready solutions to the water problem out on the desert between Mesa and the Indian reservation. as the miles Of transmission line and numbers of re- gently installed pumping plants amply testify. Nearly all of the heretofore unreclaimed land has been taken up. Fields of thriving grain are growing where there was only desert brush a few months ago. One particular quar- ter section. said MT. McBrayer. is pro- ducing a stand of barley creditable to any part of the irrigated section.
 The reclamation service in charge of the transmission lines is continuing its activity. A big sub-station has. been installed about eight miles south Of town, and fully fifty miles of new wir- ing. supplementary to the >Sacaton transmission line. has been strung for the benefit of private pumping plants. Wells are being sunk continually by the reclamation service and especially by individual or corporate owners of land. At the present. time there are nine wells on the Indian reservation, two groups between Mesa and MT. Me- Prayers property. and several on the Consolidated ranch.
 In addition it is said that private parties are figuring on putting in pumping plants with d capacity oi irrigating 1000 acres.
 The pumping plant. in McBrayers opinion. is the ultimate solution of the irrigation problem in districts isolated from the regular irrigation resources Those who have taken the matter up in. his, locality. he says. are finding it cheaper than the purchase of river water. inasmuch as a sufficient flow is encountered at depths varying from 8 feet to 65 feet.

MORE DETAILS WANTED
 FROM ENGINEER HILL
No Final Action Taken at Shareholders
 Meeting.

No decision was reached by the shareholders in the Mesa canal at the meeting held by them yesterday morn ing at the Mesa opera house for the purpose of determining whether or not the canal shall be turned over to the reclamation service in accordance with advice in that connection from En- gineer L. C. Hill. Before taking defi- nite action it was decided to adjourn the meeting to next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock and in the meantime re- quest Engineer Hill to appear before the meeting and explain fully the po- sition which the reclamation service is taking. with particular reference to the terms on which the government pro poses to take over the canal.
 The situation. as it has so far ap- peared. is that the reclamation service refuses to furnish stored water prior to the completion of the reservoir pro- ject to any corporation. It proposes to deal only with individuals. The Mesa canal is at present a corporation divided into 400 shares, the owners of which have holdings ranging from one half share to ten or fifteen shares. de- pending upon the amount of land which they own.
 Nearly all the land under the canal is Signed up in the Water Users as- sociation, and it was the ultimate in- tention of the shareholders t0 turn over their rights in the canal to the association when it should have been completed. They did not consider such action, however. at the present time until the communication referred to above was received from the recla- nation service about a week ago. No reference was made to the man. ner in which the government proposes to take over the canal. it being left to supposition that the property would be appraised through regular channels But at yesterday mornings meeting it was considered advisable to leave the matter open for a more detailed discussion next Saturday.

TO PROCURE SLEEP
OBSERVANCE OF NATURAL CON-
DITIoNs ESSENTIAL
Certain Laws That Must BE obeyed
If Insomnia Is to Be Conquered
Preserving the WeIi-6eing
of the Body.

Two sad letters have come to me-
One says: "Can you tell me of any
harmless sleeping powder that I can
take? 1 can't sleep and my looks are
being ruined The other asks more
calmly for tonic for nervousness"
and adds: 81 cannot sleep or eat
am SO nervous and restless / hope
you can help me-"
Where shall 1 begin my answer?
With common sense, 1T seems to me,
with the warning that neither drugs
nor nostrums will promote either
healthful or identifying sleep; with
advice to these two women. and to
all others who suffer in similar
way, to look first to Nature for the
cure of this great i'll.
The healthy body Is the one that
knows the great boon of sleep as
matter of course, SO If the soft un-
consciousness that ~knitS up the raw
eled sleeve of care" is denied you, you
may be sure that something is wrong
with the casket that holds your rest
less spirit. Are your habits of life
regular, reasonable, which is to say.
hygienic? Are the hours for your
meals prompt, is the food itself well
cooked and of a digestible and nour-
ishing sort? Do you drink plenty of
water-quite three pints a day are
cessary-breathe deeply, sleep in a
well-ventilated room, exercise out
doors and void the bowels at least
once thoroughly in every "a hours 7?
All of these things. and more like
unto them-the warm bath that
cleanses the skin and soothes the
nerves, for instance-are necessary
for the body's well being.
In short, sensible and regular habits
of life constitute the first and really
only sure cure for sleeplessness.
which is the sensitive temperament's
way of showing that something is
wrong. Two weeks of regular living
alone would put the worst nerves. in
something like order, so unless a wom-
an is desperately i'll in some other
way, there is no excuse for her not
sleeping Drugs are out of the ques-
ton for the ordinary case of sleep
lessness, and no tonic, however good,
will in itself alone reach the root of
the matter. The habits of life must
all be changed first; you must live ac-
cording to the dictates of Nature for
wakefulness and sleep to come at their
right times and to be good and
wholesome and identifying.
Let me take ur the matter of out
door exercise. The fresh air so
stored up in the lungs is in itself
soporific, in that the new oxygen
freshens the blood and starts up a
more healthy action of the heart
Then the tramp outdoors lifts the
mind to higher plane, the troubled
spirit, which inherits the memory that
once all humankind lived outdoors, is
pac1fied- The deep breathing is life
itself, and If the mind is fixed upon
the business in hand while this is be-
ing done it is even possible to alb
sorb fine essence from the air which
is in way immortal AT any rate.
the wise people of India claim this,

The third hat with its sharp upward
turn at the left is of yellow straw
faced with black velvet A plain band
of black velvet ribbon with a fat bow
of two loops at the right is good
style. The finishing touch is the
cluster of tiny June roses of SO pale a
pink that the color is only limited.
They are exquisitely made by tulie
and form rosette backed by dark,

flare and that shapes set well down
on the head Hats are SO roomy in
the crown that unless much hair is
worn the milliner fits them by means

where this fashion is not becoming
they are lifted by this halo boudeau
