PHOENIX HUGELY LIKED
 THE K|LT|ES CONCERT
They Blew in Like the Breath of the Heather and Gave Up Some of
 Their Excellent TunefuIness

Although not heralded by long winded press accounts, the Kilties band dropped in yesterday for a pair of concerts, and, having performed to good crowds afternoon and even ing in the Columbia theater, de parted, leaving all those who heard them plum plenty satisfied.
 Like a breath O the wind that blows over the heather they were, all so fresh and satisfying; or like the wind of the pine woods of their own Canada home. That the Kilties were patrOnized up to the limit, al though they did not bill the town" interprets their excellence to those who think in dollars.
 Under the direction of Will l.. Newman, the full band of about forty pieces rendered it's two con certs. Solo numbers were offered by Wee Jamie Clark, whose bag piping was certainly grand, mon! and by J. Coates-Lockhart, the pos sessor of a beautiful tenor voice. His Tipperary and his T Love Lassie," the latter after the only H. Lauder, were hugely satisfying.
 They tell of the famous Kilties an anecdote of Mach-TonaI, the six foot six inch drum major Mack went over to Juarez during a stay by the band in Fl Paso and bucked the Keno tiger. Believing his sil'er had been wrested from him by foul means, he talked long and loudly about it. 4 Mexican gambler resented the state ments with something of the follow ing keen Spanish wit:
 T weel not that he should talk so of my game-thees men weeth clothes of leet-a girli''
 He summoned an officer and some jabbering ensued. Eventually Mack took the policeman in one hand and the game-keeper in the other and bumped their heads together. Then he kicked over the keno table, ab- stracted the amount of his losses from the litter, and strolled back to the American side.

lEcLlPsEs OF EARLY DATE
Astronomers Hold Differing Opinions

Messrs. Hiyarama and Ogura have
published In the proceedings OF the
Toxic Mathematics Physical society
the results Of their attempts to nx the
dates of some early eclipses recorded
In Chinese literature. The earliest ID
Imentioned In one Of the books OF the
6hu Ching. where It IL recorded that
In the reign Of Chung K'ang. the
fourth emperor OF the Hsia dynasty.
there occurred an eclipse Of the sun
which had not been predicted by the
astronomers, who were alleged to have
been drunk and to have neglected
their duties. Hence the customary
rites for delivering the sun. which
should have been arranged BY the A.
tronomers, were In the emergency
performed by other officials without
proper preparation. The emperor &C

the astronomers. A later document

SHOWING HOW TO DO THINGS
Much That Could Be Accomplished by
Woman County Agent In a
Community.

! The United States department OF
Agriculture has started movement
to place woman county agent in
every community in this country. And
why shouldn't it? Mother needs help
just as well as father.
The woman county, agent is to do
for women. girls and the home what
the farm demonstration agent does
for the men and the boys on the farm.
The aim in each case is to get done
some definite worthwhile things,
which teach a lesson and inspire to
greater achievements. In the girls
canning-club work the girls are in
structed how to grow tomatoes and
other vegetables on one-tenth Of an
acre. and how to can, preserve, pickle,
and in other ways utilize the products.
Winter garden clubs and poultry clubs
have naturally followed the work In
canning and summer gardening. Bread
making and many other forms Of home
Improvement work have also been
taken up. This work trains girls to
become efficient home makers, develop
the resources of the farm, to improve
the quality Of the country life and
to become economically independent.
From the girls garden to the moth
,ers' kitchen and the home is a short
and easy step. The work with girls
has opened the way for systematic
home-economics work in the rural
home. and has developed the logical
organization and method for doing
this work.
