Jack Chanty at Camara

The business of prospecting and the mining industry that grows out of it has formed one of the most favored of all fields for romance in the wide range of American literature. There is so close a connection between American literature and the business of making motion picture plays that one may be said to be but part of the other.

AMERICAN POTASH WILL
 DlSPLACE THE GERMAN

The New York Times of last Fri day announced the sale in that city of 10000 tons of American potash at a price equivaent to that paid iu normal times for German potash salts. The sale according to the Times, was made by a Pacific Coast business man who has engaged with a small group of associates, in the production of potash from seaweed, or kelp. Delivery of five cars is promised within sixty days and the Westerner told the Times that processes for the "commercialization' of kelp have been improved to the point where success is assured. Tho seaweed is harvested" by sub marine cutting device. with a capac- ity of fifty tons per hour He adds that the fifty tons of kelp when "processed.' yields five tons of fer tilizing material with potash cor tent of more than 20 per cent. Tlie opening of the Panama Canal ii is explained, permits delivery of the product on the Eastern seaboard at a fair profit to the producers.-New Orleans Picayune.

WHITE SOX INVADE PHOENIX
 TODAY F0R CAME WITH MESA
The Big Leaguers to Arrive Early in Morning Will See the City in Parade Through Streets Before Going to Park
BY SCOOP

The result of today's baseball game is not much doubt, but the attend ance is likely to be as astonishingly large as though two of the closest matched teams in the world were fighting for a pennant. Never be- fore has the advent of a team of homing leaguers created so much interest here, as this training trip appearance of the Chicago Americans, With Charles Comiskey his own self on the Offing.
 Manager c. H. Rowland of the White Sox wired Manager Paul !. Langowski of the Jewels to the effect that "The White Sox will arrive in Phoenix at six-twenty tomorrow morning. Please meet the train." So that famous leader of the Mesa contingent will have to rise earlier this fair day than he has risen since he stopped working for a living.
 Today's program will be more like that of circus than a mere ball game. To start with, the Sox will be led downtown to the restaurants for breakfast, and to their hotel for brush-up. Then, at 12:30, they will be packed in automobiles for ride about town. following a lot of band music, being dispensed by the In dian school band. At one o'clock, they will swing the gates at River side park wide open to allow more'n million fan-fold to get in. Auto mobiles will be parked all around the diamond, and the grandstand will be opened-even to the boxes, which will be equipped with nice newly Out not fresh) painted chairs
 At 245, Umpire Jim Murray of the American Association-and well known here by reason of his several winters passed in the city-will growl the signal at the pitcher, and Mister Edward Collins, late of the $10O,0O0 infield of c. Mack. will amble up to the bat to face Monsieur Cicottc, who will temporarily transfer his allegiance from the Comiskeys crew to the Jewels.
 Mesa Enthused
 Never before in the history of Mesa has there been such baseball enthusiasm. The town has long been acclaimed as baseball center but even in it's palmiest days it has never known what it means to be attacked with a genuine epidemic of baseball itis Banks. stores and offices will close during the afternoon so that everyone including the boss, can take 9. day off and root for the Mesa Gems in line against the big league players from Chicago

Small Meeting But Lots. of Enthusiasm - Great Ad- vertising to Be Secured for Merchants by Their Employes

"If Phoenix has baseball. it will be clerks and employes-go after it and get it.
 IT, that rather bitter arraignment of the sluggish businessmen, who are the ones to profit most by the advertising resulting from league baseball here, Barnet F.. Marks, basebaliStically in- clned attorney last night started things at the meagerly attended meeting of fans Now, if any success is to attend the efforts of the few boosters to get team in the league, it will be because these clerks and Wage-earnerS will in spire their bosses with the gitup-and sit spirit.

He recognized their desire to retrench at this particular time. and he excused it fully. but he couldn't help letting slip q little irony at the comparison between the interest displayed by the sixty dol lar month counter jumper and the merchant prince who employed him.
 Then little Artie Rick got on his large flat feet and proceeded to pour lot of slang into the overloaded atmosphere. He referred to baseball as. the grandest sport in the world, not even barring hoss racing. He said a baseball team would win Phoenix more publicity than even the Columbia theater was getting and he kicked The Republican man De- meath the table as he said it.

HAPPINE Ess

Happiness and unhappiness are ir- rational. They are outside of theoriz- ing or philosophy. A trivial incident sends our spirits up or down. "Thinn- ing backward" is how the Germans describe melancholia The loneliness that is experienced in crowded places, and the yearning for days gone by or for far-off scenes creep unannounced into the heart.
 Real troubles do not kill the joy of living Catastrophe and hardship challenge the soul to combat and there is a grim pleasure in meeting and grappling with diversity. The slumping of precious illusions. the chilling fogs of misunderstanding. jealousy, envy and self-pity pile up at times to obscure the vision. H. lusions which are our playthings and our reasons to be alive, no longer gleam and glisten. Dry reality sup plants the radiant ideal.
 Every person has believed in his innermost mind that he had a mon- opoly of sorrow and tribulation. "No one as oppressed as I walks this earth complains the unspohisticat- ed wayfarer. Fatalists there be who argue that no one is happier than anyone else and that he who goes down to the depths of woe merely is paying for his ascents to the pin nacles of bliss.

HOW THEY BAT

the post office. The garages will have all their extra cars in service to assist ill handling the crowds to and will commence running extra cars direct to the grounds as early as ten o'clock in the forenoon
 Manager Langowski has been one
 of the busiest of men for the past
 three days getting the park in readi- ness and making arrangements for
 handling the immense crowd that is
 expected One of the most import ant things that has been occupying
 ms attention was sandpapering the diamond. He announced yesterday
 that the lot is in better condition
 than ever before in it's history and
 one of the fastest he has ever seen. It has required a good deal of money
 and not little time to drag down the bumps and fill in the holes. but
 he is satisfied that this has been
 done until it will be even a surprise to the fans who visited the park
 when it was in the pink of condi- ton.
 There is another feature that is that is meeting with general approval
 and that is the rearranged lineup. The fans are under the impression that it will mean a much closer score and will be the means of bringing much faster work from the visitors: With CicOtte in the box for Mesa there is the assurance that
 they will have one of the strongest pitchers in the American league. Ci- cOtte played with the Sox here last year and his twirling gave the local
 hitters considerable to talk about afterwards for some time. In Schalk the Mesa team will have one of the best cetchers in the American league. While his record is not up to that
 of Daley, however, with the proper working of the jinks on the day of the game at Riverside. he may de-
 monstrate his superiority
 There is another change in the Chicago lineup, official notice If
 which was received yesterday and that is that Brenton would be here instead of Brunswick for the third
 base position.

Thickening Sauces

Many cooks fail in the thickening of
their sauces. The butter and the flour
used for that purpose should invar-
iably be we'll rubbed and cooked to-
gether before they are added to the
liquid to prevent the sauce from hav-
ing fioury, uncooked taste. The COM
mon practice of wetting the -four to a
paste with water and then adding it
to the sauce is Objectionable, as in
this way the flour does not hold the
grease in suspension, and the latter is
very likely to float on top of the gravy
or sauce.

French Omelet

Use more yolks than whites of eggs
to insure the proper tenderness. The
pan should be small and thin, to secure
thick omelet and quick cooking. For
small omelet take two whole eggs
and the yolks of two more, beat with
a spoon until a full spoonful can be
taken up, add three tablespoonfuls of
water, one-fourth space for uncooked
egg to run down upon the hot surface
of the pan. When cooked to creamy
consistency throughout begin at the
side of the pan next to the handle and
roll the omelet over and over, and then
upon a hot plate. Serve at once.

Today's Poem
THE SILVER LINING
]I=lmur--I

THE SILVER LINING
There's never a day SO sunny
But little cloud appears:
There's never life so happy
But it has its time of tears:
Yet the sun shines out the brighter
When the stormy tempest clears.
There's never a garden growing
With rose in every plot;
There's never heart so hardened
But it has one tender spot;
We have only to prune the border
To find the forget-me-not.
There's never cup so pleasant
But has bitter with the sweet;
There's never path so rugged
That bears not the print of feet;
But we have a Helper promised
For the trials we must meet.
There's never sun that rises
But we know twill set at night;
The tints that CLEAN in the morning
At evening are just as bright;
And the hour that is the sweetest
Is between the dark and light.
There's never a dream that's happy
But the waking makes us sad;
There's never dream of sorrow
But the waking makes us glad;
We shall look some day with wonder
At the troubles we have had.

About Cake

If a cake cracks open while baking
it contains too much -four. Use half
cup less next time.
II you want very fiie-grained cake
beat we'll with silver fork after mix
ing.
If you want spongy, light cake use
sour milk; if heavier one, use sweet
milk in it.
For a small cake or cookies have a
hot oven; for large, rick cake, slow
oven.
Sift your flour before measuring.
Stiff the baking powder with it to in
sure thorough blending.
In making fruit cake add the fruit
before putting in the flour and it will
not fall to the bottom of the cake.
This is better than Touring the fruit,
which often leaves unbaked flour
clinging to the fruit after it has been
baked.

Well May We Look West, to Kansas
For Our Example

For Our Example
When we think of Kansas we have
visions of acre upon acre Of tall yell
low corn.
We see a flat prairie which is a
natural farm land for hundreds of
miles.
We see a Woodworking and pros
/ porous people who are helping to feed
+ the world.
We see strong men and women who
have worked together through the
terrible heat of summer and made
the most prolific farms in the world,
but we may not realize the full signi-
ficance Of this splendid achievement
of labor.
Here are few statistics about this
state whose prosperity at harvest
time concerns us all so closely:
Kansas has prison population of
only TAO. of whom 40 per cent were
non-residents of the state.
Kansas bank deposits have increas-
ed in the last ten years from $780,
100000 to $230,000,000.
Kansas state tax three years ago
amounted to less than .036 an acre,
on the average.
The bond Indebtedness Of Kansas is
less than ten cents each for every
person in the state.
Twenty-eight counties did not have
a jail prisoner during all af 1914
Forty eight counties, did not send
a person to the penitentiary that
year.
Seventy eight counties did not
have an insane patient last year.
Twelve counties have not called a
! jury to trial of a criminal case in
years.
/ Twenty counties do not have a pris-
4 iner in the penitentiary.
Eighteen counties have no poor
farm.
Kansas had but IA children paupers
cared for by the state in 1914.
These are wonderful figures and
should make us pause in our every
i day rush, to consider.
/ In the first place it is the greatest
plea for the "back to the soil" move
ment which could be imagined.
4 Kansas is primarily an agricultural
state and there is small danger of a
people in that mass of growing grain,
going hungry.
Hunger is the parent of crime and
! disease.
what man with an empty stomach
can be expected to regard the nicities
of our laws which distinguish so
clearly between mine and thine.
Another thing, which was not
mentioned before, is that Kansas is
prohibition state and all prison ex-
perts agree that about 20 per cent of
crime comes from drink.
There is a direct relation between
drink and hunger.
Nine times out Of ten the man with
out food 10 sustain him, will pay his
J last dime for drink and with some
reason.
1t warns and strengthens him for a
short time and gives him false
courage which he can easily mistake
4 for the real thing.
Poverty, drink and crime are so
correlated that it is almost impossible
to separate them.
