Marie Tiffany. the sWeetest-voiced soprano Phoenix has ever known, will be the solofst on one occasion. Lovers of music have never become reconciIed to Mrs. Tiffany's absence in California the past three years, and that she is to return to sing with this favorte club chorus will indeed be welcome bit of news to all. MT. Davies is being urged to be the soloist at Easter, but whether society will have the privilege of hearing hlm cannot be determined since no thought has been given to that program be- yond the fact that the tenor is be-
 ing besieged with requests to sing. In
 it's one year of existence the club has
 made an enViable place for itself in
 Phoenix. Tucson and Prescott, where
 the chorus and it's director are well
 known. The Valley Field is another
 of the newer clubs, and since it's or
 ganization last spring has had SeV-
 eral smart dinners. These will con
 tinue every Thursday until the for
 nal opening of the club fair week,
 when teas and dances will be added
 to the gaieties.

They are not going to stay away, by any means but will be up on the grandstand, which will be a thing quite new. brought about by something they ex- n1atn as .suDplv and demand" At any rate, there are not nearly enough boxes to go around. and the location reserved to poorly situated ones. Maids and matrons who are patriotic and pro gressive are making a campaign in favor of the grandstand and many of
 the smartest and gayest parties will be there"
