America and France combined last

second evening of the charity bazaar.

Miss Donna Easley. Mile. de HoltoIr,
and the inimitable Bert Williams came
down from New York to contribute their
talent to the cause of the wounded and
with the assistance of 7-year-old Tereta
Shaefrer, who dances with the finish of a
professional. it proved to be a generous
contribution.
Miss EasIey opened with Bellinis Il
Puritani.' and. despite the, fact that she
was singing n the open air, rendered it
exquisitely. Following it she sang as an
encore the latest English success which
is replacing "Tipperary' in the trenches,
Keep the Home Fires Burning"
Mile. de HoltOir had two numbers a
series of sketches given in costume, and
a monologue. Between the numbers
little Miss Shaeffer did a sword dance.
and when with her sword on her
shoulder she staggered down the stage
in time to the music the audience greeted
her with a storm Of applause.
Court Yard Lovely.
The only criticism that one overheard
of Bert Williams performance was that
he did not sing everything he knew.
He was generous, however. singing a
number OF songs, among them his cele-
bratcd Slippery Elm and concluding
with the we'll known pantomime of a
poker game.
The court yard was lovely with the
moon rising behind the stage which has
been built at the end Of the terrace, its
light blending with the rose-coIored cleo
trio bulbs with which the court yard is
strung. The setting was designed by r.

Gen. ObregOn is understood to have

The action was taken following the

recommendations from Gen. Scott and

As August sees the camp at it's best it has been the custom for several years to hold Sunday school during that month. For two or three years Miss Edith Evans has taken the re- sponsibility of conducting the Sunday school and she wishes to announce that this season was very successful an average of thirty each Sunday in attendance. At it's close each year a vote is taken as to what use the col lection is to be donated. AS every one is interested in the Red Cross work it was voted last Sunday to turn over this summers money, a little over eight dollars, for that noble work, so Miss Evans sent money order cover ing that sum to headquarters in Phoenix.
 Sunday morning a tennis tournament of mems singles was held at the new tennis courts. Chester Goldberg came out first, Mir. Edward Marshall sec ond, and MT Melville Fickas third.

WILSON'S AMAZING LOGIC

On the eve of the vote on the army
bill in the Senate, President Wilson
made an address at the congress of the
d. A. r. at Washington in which he
lent the coolest kind of comfort to
those who have been trying to give
the country an adequate measure of
national defense.
The Presidents remarks seemed d.
rected wholly toward an imaginary
situation in which somebody will de-
mand that the United States shall 90
to war-and he emphasized again in
robust fashion his amazingly foolish
idea that we should never fight except
for the sake of humanity. He appar-
emily thinks that such warfare
which would be, in almost any case,
warfare of aggression, is the only kind
of warfare which we have to eontem-
plate and to guard against. In point
of fact, the kind of warfare which the
advocates of preparedness are seeking
to fit us for is the warfare of defense;
and the President had no word of en-
eouragement for their efforts. His ia
nous single-traek mind can apparent
ly contemplate no military action
which is purely defensive. This is
amazing logic and amazing folly as
well.

delegations not formally pledged to a
9 Z favorite son" candidate. Thus in
Maine and New Hampshire, both the
Hughes and Roosevelt supporters say
they have a preponderanee of support,
but those who are supporting Senator
Weeks contradict this and make the
counter assertion that out of the 20
delegates chosen in these two states,
fourteen will vote for Weeks on the
initial ballots, and will continue to sup
port him if he displays a permanent
strength in the convention.
The claims of those advocating the
nomination of Senator Weeks are more
definite and circumstantial han any
so far given out by the various Presi
Dental camps in Washington. They
place the present strength of the Mas
saehusetts candidate at lilo delegates,
of which, in addition to the IA dele
gates claimed in Maine and New
Hampshire, 81 come from Missouri,
Oklahoma, Kansas and western states,
6 from New York and 80 from the
South, including North Carolina,
where Senator Weeks is reputed to
have the support of at least two-thirds
of the states delegation.
Former Senator Burton of Ohio is
perhaps the most active of all the Re
publican candidates, being able to give
practically his entire time to the fur
therance of his campaign. At present
he and his manager, Granville Mooney,
are giving particular attention to West
Virginia, where a state convention viii

THE DEMOCRATIC
KEY-NOTER

The Democratic national committee,
according to Chairman McCombs, will
not select the presiding officer for the
st. Louis convention until early in
June. The convention assemblies June
14-but it is perhaps quite as well not
to choose the keynote sounder very
long in advance, because the issues
which the administration regards as
paramount change with every veering
Of the President mind; and it would
be most embarrassing for a speech
maker to get an grafton all ready to
deliver and then find that the Presi-
lent had shifted his opinion and left
just so much oratorieal matter dead
on the ~kev-noter's hands.
1t is intimated that ex-GOv. Glynn
of New York will be the temporary
presiding officer at st. Louis. This
choice would be altogether fitting.
When Glynn went before the people
for election in 1914 and took to the
voters that stirring shibboleth of the
Democracy, "Thank God for Wood
row Wilson," the obdurate electors of
the Empire state turned him down by
a majority of close up to 100000. Ae-
cordingly, ex-Gov. Glynn is exactly the
man to stand forth before the dele
gates at st. Louis as the embodiment
of what has happened and of what is
going to happen to the Democratic
party.
