Former Ell Paso Boys
Canvasess This Week

a y epoch in the art development
| ~ of FL PasO was the opening Mon
L - day afternoon Of the weeks ex-
hibit OF paintings and sketches by
! Allen Upper True, held in the gallery
at the Fred J. Feldman studio under
the auspices of the Ell Paso WOman's
club art department
The paintings. some As in number,
depict scenes of the southwest and are
chiefly located in New Mexico and
: southern Colorado. sketched while Mr..
True and his bride We're on a motor
camping trip of several months
Bits of New Mexico indian pueblos
with the wonderful blue of the south
western sky above: old missions with
the sunshine playing on their plastered
walls and the picturesque indians and
Mexicans in the foreground; placid
! hooks in the mountain forests where
the wind sings through the pines and
aspens; corking good studies Of west
ern frontier life with the old stage
coaches rumbling through the towns or
COW punchers rounding up a few
"strays~ among the quaking aspen on
the hillside; these form some Of the
picture subjects and all have the tang
of the wind swept open, the smell OF
the pines and the bigness Of the west
that gives the west its fascination.
In all the pictures there is a bigness
and breadth in the handling; all show
the painters appreciation of colors in
relation to each other. the yirility Of
the painters individuality and his love
for the work. One splendid picture
represents the prospector ahead OF his
heavy laden pack mule, tramptng
through the snow of an autumn Drowned
forest, high in the hills. The picture
is wonderfully decorative. but in ad-
dition il is a keen analytical study OF
the old prospector type, perslstently
trudging on with courage and hope still
high in his heart. To anyone who has
traemped over the hills. the picture
has vivid appeal
Another splendid picture is the
Timber Jacks, picture. in a differ
ent vein. equally decorative It, too,
breathes of the big outdoors and the
strength and vigor Of men living out
door lives.
A series Of Jicarilla indian pictures.
representing the four seasons, are done
in a harmonious decorative manner

Hadn't Served it Before

Once a short little woman and her tall husband went to cafe of the cheaper sort for dinner.
 "Will you have oysters 2" asked the husband, glancing over the bill of fare.
 "Yes," said the little woman, as she tried in vain to touch her feet to the floor, "and, Henry, I want has sock"
 Henry nodded, and as he handed his order to the waiter, said: "Yes, and bring the lady hassock."
 "One hassock ?" asked the waiter, with what Henry thought more than ordinary interest, as he nodded in the affirmative. Still the waiter did not go, but brushed the tablecloth with a towel and rearranged the articles on it several times, while his face got very red.
 Then he came around to the hus- bands side, and, speaking in whisp- CT, said: Say, Mister, haven't been here long, and I'm not on to all these things. Will the lady have the has sock broiled or fried?"

HUBBARD DELIGHTS GOOD
 AUDIENCE HERE MONDAY

The performance of Mir. Havrah Hubbard and Mir. Wells Weston, at the Emerson school on Monday eve ming, October IS, will long remain in the memories of the people of Flag staff.
 To those who attended, was present ed one of the most delightful per formances ever given on the stage in Flagstaff. Mir. Hubbard talks, and Mir. Weston plays. Together they present a very realistic and interest ing scene.
 Monday night they chose Tann- haueser to present to the audience. MT. Hubbard made an introductory speech about Art, and explained how very much people seem to be afraid of it. He told his audience how little they need know of music to enjoy his talk, and told them how they had to imagine the setting of the stage to get the real good out of the story.
 He then told the story of Tann- houser to the music played by MT. Weston, holding his audience in a quiet spell for over an hour. Many of the Normal students were there, and they all expressed themselves as hav- ing a most enjoyable evening, and vowed to attend the first grand opera that they had chance to see.

GENTLEMEN MEET WITH |
 FOREST SERVICE OFFICIALS

phe Advisory Committee of the Ari- zona Cattle Growers Association and the Forest officials of the district met last Monday at the Adams Hotel in Phoenix. Some of the best grazing land in Arizona and New Mexico is within the boundaries of the National Forests, and the livestock growers have found that the regulations of the National Forests have been beneficial rather than otherwise. Some prob- lens arise, however, which require changes in the regulations, and for the purpose of thoroughly discussing these matters an Advisory Committee of the state association is appointed to consult with Forest officials, once each year, and to discuss matters that have come up during the year, which would indicate the advisability of a change in the regulations.
 Among the present at this meeting were John Kerr, E. N. Cavenaugh, J. D. Guthrie and c. H. Hinderer of the Forest Service, and Jack Crabb, pres ident of the Coconino Cattle Growers Association, Flagstaff; F. A. Reid of Seligman; Fen Hildreth, Phoenix; J. w. Sullivan, Seligman; w. w. Cooke, Phoenix; M. B. Hazeltine, Prescott; Levi Young, Phoenix; Sam Bradner, Phoenix; L. L. Harmon, Phoenix, and W. W. Moore, Phoenix.
 The meeting was harmonious throughout, and many matters of vital importance to stockmen were dis cussed. One of the most important matters to come up was the question of whether it is just to permit acre age holdings in irrigated section to become the basis for issuing permits inside the Forest Reserve. It was brought out that there are some sec tions of irrigated land which are con tiguous to the Forest Reserve, and the owners of which were dependent upon the grazing privilege, but it was the unanimous opinion of the cattlemen present that in future, permits should not be issued on such basis where it is. well understood that there is no Forest range in close proximity Southwestern Stockman.

Guest Night of Shakespeare Club

Quite an event of the season was guest evening at the Shakespeare Club on last Friday night. Mrs. Honn's attractive home was given over to the club members in which to entertain their guests and at an early hour the festivities were well under way. A series of shadow pictures kept up a merry round of guessing, interspersed with song after which Mrs. Evans in original verse, told of the "Male Annex" of the club. Miss Blome next held the attention of the guests with a number of touching poems from the old masters. A thrilling hold up was then in order and the guests were compelled to pay heavy fines before the bold intruders departed. These fines were redeemed in unique ways by the owners causing much merriment. This very enjoy able evening was then completed by a delicious lunch served in cafeteria style and the guests departed with many pleasant memories of delight ful evening.

An Interesting Fashion Note

A tip to girls from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram: "The ankle bouquet, ankle watch, wrist pigeon and should CT monkey are all right, but if girl wishes to attract serious attention from young men of marriageable age she should drag pan of biscuits along the sidewalk. A fad of this kind would be just as sensible as the others, and men might follow the bis cult to the altar"

Missed Something

Mrs. McGreevy was a dinner guest one evening where a noted explorer was the attraction. Being of some what languid turn of mind, she paid more attention to her dinner than to the conversation. After dinner was over, she turned to one of the guests and asked:

 "Really?" asked Mrs. McGreevy with sudden interest. And how do you play it?"
