A SOLDIERS
 SAN|TAR|UM
Lecturer Robert Elwood Suggests Establishment of Federal Hospital for Tuberculars in Valley at Veterans Luncheon.

That the federal government should esta blfsh a tubercuIar sanitarium here for diseased soldiers and veterans, was the statement of Robert A. Elwood, the lecturer who opened the Hi-Y course; his remarks were made at a gathering of Spanish War Veterans. who enter tained him at luncheon yesterday noon.
 MT. Elwood spent part of the day with Governor Hunt motoring to the interesting parts of the valley. In con- nection with his visit here, the speaker had this to say:
 q have greatly enjoyed my stay. The citizens are to be congratula ted upon the splendid manner in which the foundations for the states capital have been laid. The streets. are not only wide and well paved, but notably clean. Leading hotels are a credit to city of much more population. Many stores here are superior to those of cities far bigger than Phoenix.
 The Y. M c. A is worthy of the energetic spirit displayed by the citi- zens, and I am sure in days to come, will receive the continued support of your people.
 From my knowledge of conditions throughout the country, l say Phoenix is going to grow and will become a great center of the southwest. This great valley will ultimately become a vast garden spot, for the produ~>ion of all sorts of useful vegetation.
 T consider the pioneers a s worthy of as much honor as the soldiers of the nation. for pioneers of a state like this are soldiers of the public welfare
 Phoenix will never be accused of giving the cold shoulder to anybody My wish is that you will make enough of you-to come to Atlantic City to spend next summer. I hope the men will accept the opportunity next Friday night to hear Hon. Allen D. Albert give his great lecture on "City

 The question of a further appro- priatiOn flor maintaining the office of farm advisor, was discussed brief ly, and the joint meeting declared it could not appropriate such fund.

Whyman Land and Development Company Doing Good Work in
 Casa Grande Valley

With the recent filing of incorpora- tion papers by Richard, Horatio and Robert Whyman, under the name of the Whyman Land and Development Company, a decidedly important move was made toward the develop ment of hitherto unwatered tracts in
 the Casa Grande district Almost
 coincident with the incorporation of the concern, a contract was entered
 into by the company for the con-
 structiOn of a small pumping plant near Higley which will furnish a flow Of 360 inches for about 96O acres.
 Under the terms of the contract the plant will be completed about February l. at which time the con struction of the required canal sys- tenn will also be finished. That there will be an abundant flow of water for the proposed well, there is no doubt
 This is but one of about fifteen units that the Whyman brothers have undertaken. fourteen of which are already completed or are nearing completion. It represents about the average size of the units undertaken and is a means of developing in short time, tracts of land that might have to wait many months before receiving water from govern ment projects if they ever received such water.

 The play is based on the Hun garian system of marriage, where matrimonial conventions inexorably cOnsign to helpless spinsterhood a girl whose younger sister marriefs be- fore her
 Seven daughters may be considered a very well disguised blessing, par ticularly when the middle one is such a hoyden that she places her sisters romantic chances in further jeopardy by being expelled from the convent school.
 That is what the naughty Mici, portrayed by Marguerite Clark, does in the play.

How did I celebrate my birthday? well I spent the day at my desk at the capital building putting in some good licks getting out some of the work which is piling up in my office"
 Thus did Governor Hunt reply to query directed to him yesterday as to how he celebrated his fifty sixth birth anniversary which occurred yesterday.
 The states chief executive first opened his eyes on the world at Huntsville, Mo, on November 1, 1859, and came to the territory of Ari- zona while yet q mere boy. By sheer hard work he raised himself to the highest office which the people of this state have in their power to beStoW on a man.

Construction Not Adequate to Supply All Lands Originally Contemplated and Cost Not Fixed to Local Satisfaction.

l Protests against the proposed | opening of the Salt River project by 1 the United States Reclamation Ser i vice, and against the continual 1 changes in the rules of water service l as result of the interim of two ! months between October 1, the end | of the old irrigation year, and De- cember l, the time it is planned to declare the project open, were reg
 istered in yesterdays meeting of the Board of Governors and council ot the Water Users Association.
 The action of the joint meeting on
 the first named project came as a
 result of the recommendation of
 Judge J. H. Kibbey, legal advisor
 After reviewing the legal relations
 of the water users and the govern
 ment from the aime the first contract
 was signed up to the present, Judge
 Kibbey suggested a resolution. pro- testing against formally dNSning the project on December l. AS grounds for the protest Judge Kibbey gave:
 l. Project not completed. By this it is meant that not enough water has been developed to irrigate the entire acreage contemplated in the original plan. Particular reference was made to the 32,000 acres, which the government has recognized by according them a partial or tempo rary rights, based on the condition the reservoir contain over one mil ! lion acre feet of water The lateral system, supposed to have been taken 1 over and revised by July l, 1915, i when the reclamation funds were supposed to have been rendered un- | avilable by the extension act, is not | yet in shape.
 2s Cost not fixed. Although the central review board may report it's findings on the report of the cost | review board of this project, to the secretary of the interior before De- cember l. and although MT. Lane may hold that the central board finding is the actual cost of the project, the water users will accept no such cost until they have them selves had a chance to pass on the matter. Work of reviewing eXpen- ditures was rushed in order that a report might be laid before the secretary prior to December L The water users will recognize no fixed cost until they have been formally apprised of the findings, and have idu d CudnCe lO ItSiSbtl d PAOlCoi- f they consider one proper, against l charge that may not coincide with -heir ideas of what is fair and right.

 An interesting sidelight was cast ,n the matter, when, from the dis ,ussion it was learned the board l md council do not regard it proper ,, hat development of water supply on he Verde river be classed as a sep lrate unit of the Salt river project. 7 Here are lands lying in the midst r if cultivated areas, yet, at present, L without a settled water supply.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES


 If a. fire has to be left unwatched for several hours. put a handful of salt on the top of the coal. This will prevent the fuel burning away quick ly, and stir with the poker will re- suit in a nice glowing fire.
 If bananas are a trif1e green when they come from market, put them away in the dark in the paper bag in which they came; allow them to re- main for few days and they will vor.
 It is a good idea to have a cro- quette pot in the refrigerator and into this pot put all the odds and ends that will go into the making of croquettes. By this means you can keep the re- frfgerator cleared up and at the same time avoid waste.

WISE MOTHER NATURE
 DID NOT CONSTRUCT
 WOMEN FOR POLITICS

(F'rona Mrs. W. B. Williams, Anti
 SufragiSt.0
 One Of the most deploraible results it has upon the women themselves. It divides them into two hostile camps and rouses in them a. spirit of bitter ness and intolerance Most of US are too old-fashioned not to be saddened when we SC women attacked by wo- men in the public press, but this is another of the bitter fruits of the suf- f1age movement. We hear of friend : ships being broken up, families being divided husbands and wives estranged on account of the vexed question, to vote or not to vote. All this sorrow and heartache has been caused by simply discussing w1e ther or not the ballot shall be given to women. How much worse it would be if the fran ohise were granted and women were plunged into the maelstrom of poli- tics Women are not fitted by nature to endure such, a strain. They are too impuIsive, too sensitive, too high strung.
 The relentless struggles inevitable if women are forced to attain their ends by political means, the cruel personal attacks to which they must expose themselves would wreck their nerves and break their hearts. It is hard to circumvent mother nature. Putting a little piece of paper in a box once a year, doesn't have any effect on her laws And that wise old lady knew what she was about when she made women She did not construct them for political battles.

I wanted a station looked over over newspaper advertisements, but none fo them asked for a. waitress, so de- sided to make a restraurant-to-rest- aurant canvass. I started in on upper Sixth avenue and I cannot begin to count the number of proprietors and managers who refused to talk to me because had no experience. One m orning when was looking my best in a. fresh shirt waist and a, rose in my belt, I said to one of these men:
 How earth can I get experience unless someone gives it to me Why don't you offer me a chance? You think I am from the country; well I am, but that adds to my value. I can carry two buckets of milk as easily as most girls carry a purse, so can manage the biggest tray that was ev- CT loaded. I have a. good memory that hasn't been distracted by all sorts of city nonsense. Why don't you be the one to give me experience ''
 He laughed and said:
 All right: come here tomorrow about ten, but you'll have to work for nothing, till the head waiter considers you experienced
