 The words move on are generally associated with policemen, brass but tons and blue coats. But here is an instance where the mystic phrase is to be associated with the Blue Flood Shoe Store and if the word of Manager A. J. Conn is to be taken there is to be sweeping reduction of stock by an equally sweeping reduction of prices Not shoe in the store is to be re- served.

CELEBRATION
 FOR SUFFRAGE
Mayor Young Delivers Ad- dress in City Hall Plaza Commenting Arizona's Action - National Suf- frage Asked for

The suffragette celebration held in city hall blaze last evening called out hundreds of men and women of Phoe- nix who sought to assist in proclaim ing their belief in the practice of the state of Arizona that women in the exercise of the franchise are no detri- ment to the growth and upbuilding of the state. And Mayor Young in deliv- ering the address of the evening sub- scribed to the belief that the work of the women along civic lines is a posi- tive betterment
 The evening opened with a band con- cert that held the attention of the large audience before the speaking began. Dr. Rosa Goodrich BoidO presided at the meeting in the absence of Mrs. E. Brady O'Neill, and introduced Mayor Young to the assembled crowd
 The mayor spoke for some thirty minutes telling of his belief in the priv ilege of womens voting and of what good the future held for Arizona and such states as have adopted that prin- ciple. He said the states in the east that have not adopted that are not up to date and are most assuredly missing one of the greatest means for keeping their political life up to the standard it ought to maintain.
 Following the speech, a resolution was presented, directed to the congress of the United States asking for national suffrage for women. The resolution was carried by standing vote.
