 We have two moving picture houses in Yuma that have probably been visited by every inhabitant of the city, and by most of them hundreds of times. And the oftener one sees movie" the oftener he or she is amazed that such wonder can be reproduced by a very small piece of mechanism
 Few of us ever stop to calculate the time and money it requires to put one of these movie plays OF the screen, but when you consider that it costs all the way from $500 to S25,- 900 per reel and that there are frequently five or si x''reels" to one play, it can at once be seen that there are millions upon millions of dollars invested in the movie" business.
 Fortunate indeed is the town or To- cality that has movie" outfit in it's midst, for it not only brings the worlds best known actors and ac- tresses right to your door and makes citizens of them for months at a time, but it sends the name of the town o1I locality to every nook and corner of the world! For it must be borne in mind that in order to be a good mo vie" headquarters the locality must . be rich in scenic beauty, rich in his torical events, rich in it's hospitality to the movies" and above all rich in its sunshine,
 Yuma is all of this and in the latter even more so than any city on the face of the earth.

pened this way:
 J. O. Taylor and wife were bound for the movie" camp near Los An geles. They had come all the way from my old home, San Antonio, Tex, where Mr. Taylor has his moving pie ture studio. Their machine broke down in the nearby desert, and they had to come to Yuma and wait here until they sent to the auto factory back east for repairs. Time hung heavy on MT. Taylor's hands. He be- gan to fret, then to worry, then to stew
 In the meantime. his pretty little wife, who by strange coincident, was born in the same town where I first saw the light of day Gonzales, Tex), suggested to her impatient husband that this was the finest, most perfect climate she had ever enjoyed, and in viewing the many places of interest this same good little wife suggested getting out three-reel movie" at the Indian reservation school.
 MT. Taylor jumped at the Idea, and for three months the work has been done so quietly that only very few Yumaites have known that we had a moving picture outfit" right here ir our midst. MT Taylor hasn't done much talking about it, for he did not intend to make Yuma his home, and knowing his natural modesty, have refrained from bringing him out in the limelight until he had fully made up his mind what he wanted to do.
 For the past several weeks, he has been in the hands of committee of the Commercial Club, and the con- mittee has finally induced him to pitch his tent" as it were, for all time to come, right here in Yuma!
 Provided certain things can be done for him!
 The first and allimportant of these is that he needs the old library room, on the second floor of tke old peni- tentiary, to use in developing his films. Request for it's use has been made to the city council, but the city dads want $25 per month rentali
 What do you know about that!
 Instead of charging Mr. Taylor $25 per month rental, the city can much | better afford to pay him $25O per month to locate herel

Every one of them will have to live here, will have to eat, have a place to sleep, have clothes to wear, have auto rides, buggy rides, boat fact, will have to patronize every industry in Yuma. Everybody will gain by their coming! We have all to gain nothing to lose-and, in to all this, when they fully establish the fact that this is the HOME OF THE "MOV- -ES," just see the amount of adver-

ROME, Aug. 2.
Heavy nshting In the Austro-Italian
theatre OF war has shifted from the
Isonso front to Tyroi and Trentino The
War once reports severe hostilities In
the Alps with both infantry and artillery
engaged on big scale
Along the Isonzo front the Austrian
lines have been weakened TO such an ex-
tent by 10 days constant battering by the
italians that there is less resistance than
at any other time since hostilities broke
out.
II is reported on excellent authority
that tho AustrIans are making extensive
plans for the evacuation OF Trieste IN
order TO prevent the capture OF the army
concentrated in that part OF the lstria
peninsula. The Austrlans are said to be
removing the machinery from the arms
factories al Trieste and are also remov-
ing supplies from the military depot to
prevent their capture by the Italians.
The tenaclty Of the defense OF Gorilla
has proved a surprise to military experts
who expected the fall of the Austrian
city long before this. The delay In the
capture OF the stronghold is explained by
the fact that Lieutenant General Cadorna
is not disposed to sacrifice his men reek-
lessly by hurting them against the strong
defenses Of the Austrians. He Is content
TO adopt trench fighting such as Is in
progress in France and Belgium. The
result from such a method OF warfare
would be slower. but the losses In human
life would be smaller
