THE ARlZONA's SILVER SERVICE

(Bisbee Review
Hundreds of people availed
themselves yesterday and Sunday
of the privilege of viewing the
magnificent silver service present
ed to the battleship Arizona by the
citizens of the state. The service
was most effectively arranged in
one of the large display windows
of the Phelps Dodge Mercantile
Company. Decorators of the com
pany supplied as central back
ground a huge shield on which was
an Ameri ican eagle, and overhead
the National coIors.
In the foreground, and occupy
ing the entire floor space of the
window the many articles of silver
completing the service were dis
played. Some of the heavier pieces
such as punch bowl, coffee urn,
flower bowl and salvers were truly
gorgeous in their rich dignity. The
design throughout all of the arti-
cles is exceedingly graceful and
appropriate. 1t is expected that
the service will remain in the
Phelps Dodge window for three or
four days, and it is well worth the
time of every citizen to view it.

Even with a poor grade of

EXERCISE AND HEALTH

The "Exercise and Health, an

note of warning is sounded. The
death rate after the age of 40 is
increasing in spite of more saul
tary modes of living and greater
protection against communicable
diseases. The expectation Of life
after 40 is less than it was thirty
years ago. This is due largely to
increased prevalence of the dis
eases of degeneration. The mus
cles, arteries and other organs of
those who as a result of sedentary
occupation or Incidence take too
little exercise degenerate. Heart
disease, kidney disease and other
ills follow.
Take exercise. Take daily ex-
ercise. Have a hobby that gets
you out of doors. Keep chickens,
make a garden, wheel the baby or
engage In some game or sport, but
take as much outdoor exercise as
possible every day. Be moderate,

Camping Courtesy.

Good camping grounds should be the
special property of sportsmen and low
ers of the woods, and it is a pity that
they should so often be desecrated by
the unappreciative. This is the season
when the forest floor will be StreWn
with tin cans and cracker boxes, when
the clean woods will be marred with
all sorts of ugly rubbish, and when
the pleasure Of late campers will be
half destroyed by the vandalism of
their predecessors. Great tracts Of for
est will be blackened by flames set
from little camptirCS. The growth OF
young timber will be checked. And
all the trouble could be banished if
only people would observe the few
simple rules of the woods. The forest
is the last refuge of solitude amid
beauty; therefore do not make its Sc
cuded glades into vulgar picnic
grounds. NobleSse oblige there as else
where. and though the after conner
may not know you he will know what
