Weird Scene of Coming Shrine Ger em Oni Is March Is Big Day In Ari- zona Shrinedom When I'm perial POtentate Comes

Officers in charge of the Shrine cere- have completed all arrangements for the work. which will all be put on in the desert near the Hole in the Rock. Recently scouting parties have been over the ground and have selected the exact location for the mystic rites of initiation.
 Most of the nobles of Fl Zaribah have been advised of the particular location but the unregenerate have not been informed, for obvious reasons.
 Chief MintZ said last night that one of the greatest surprises the imperial potentate will ever have experienced will be found in the ceremonial. which he will attend. together with his party of touring nObles. Next to the Shrine doings at the Grand Canyon several seasons ago, the coming ceremonial in the rocks east of the city will be the most uniquely placed in the history of the order
 Contrary to previous reports the en- tire session will be held in the hills. By March 16 the moon will be shining brightly, and lending its ghostly radi- ance to the already weird features of the scene.
 The barbecue and preliminaries will occur during the afternoon, near the spot where the dread rites will be cele- brated. The work will last the greater part of the night, and will be attended by Imperial Potentate J. Putnam Ste vens and his entire party, who do not leave until the following day for Los Angeles.

Committee of Cham ber of Commerce Points Out Need of More EXten- sive Use of Valley Grown Grain Crop
RESOLUTION
For the Encouragement of Home Industry and Especially Advocating the More Extensive Use of Flour MilIed in Arizona from Arizona grown Wheat.

Because of geographical situation and for other obvious reasons Arizona wheat can be sold only in the market provided by the Arizona mills. Ari- zona millers have modern equipment and expert help, and produce flour equally as good and for some pur- poses superior to any other flour sell ing in the local retail market at from 90 cents to $1 per 100 pounds cheaper than imported flour.
 Flour consumption in the Salt River valley has increased 50 per cent in the last eight years. yet the local millers are making less flour today than eight years ago. This year. for the first time in history, there is more wheat
