HALF THOUSAND
 NAMES ADDED

There are certainly not less than 800 qualified voters in Phoenix this morning that would have failed to score on election day, had it not been for the special registration work of the past two days under the auspices of the republican county central commit tee. Their operations were conducted from the headquarters of the Hughes Alliance which was placed at their disposal with all facilities for secur- ing unregistered names and routing special autos equipped with registering officers and committeeman, who were mostly committeewomen.
 To get right down to the facts, most of the credit should be given to the re- publican women. chiefly members of the woman's republican league. For a couple of weeks past, they have been engaged in gathering the names and addresses of unregistered persons, par ticularly women, without regard to their political preferences and yester- day and Friday, they manned" the automobiles and led the registering of ficers to their quarry. Something like 250 names were listed at the start. Many more were telephoned in and many added new ones were picked up afield and registered.
 1 Some of the women did not stop 1 their work until long after dark, but when they did quit every name sub- mitted had been registered or the req son discovered. except a very few which were reported at late hour and were informed that they would have l to report at the county recorders of
 flee to secure registration, that office remaining open until midnight to ac-
 commodate the delinquents
 l Undoubtedly there are yet quite [ number, perhaps a hundred, qualified ivoters in the city, who slept on theil rights and will regret it when election day comes, but all who could be To. cated were rounded up-and tn,
 rounding was chiefly done by republi can women, whether democrats or re
 publicans.
 It might seem like poor politics fo
 republicans to be so insistent on regis tering democrats. but it is hard to tel
 what a democrat will do this year ant the republicans are willing to take
 chance on converting the registere, democrats at least to the voting of , partial republican ticket They see n. , reason why even the democrats shoul r not vote for Hughes and the republi
 can state officers.
 Just how many were registered a . the recorders office yesterday coul
 not be learned last night but it known that the people stood fin line al

 tion, and especially the womans par 7 of it. regardless of his politics.

The First Christmas Tree.

"The Christmas tree was introduced
by the Germans" said dealer in toys.
II am going to sell Christmas trees this
year, and recently have been trying
to find out who the man was who first
exploited the tree outside Of it's Ger
man motherland. want to use this in
formation in an advertisement, but l
have not completed my researches
yet. l have got as far back as the
time of Henry VIII. 1 have copied in
my notebook an account of a Christmas
tree that was trimmed and set up be-
fore that kiug.' The dealer then read
aloud the following paragraph, point
ing out, as he proceeded, the quaint
ness and charm Of the old spelling:
"Agaynste the XII daye, or the daye
Of the Epiphanie, at nighte before the
bankct in the Hall of Richemonde, was
a pageaunt devised like mountayne
glisteringe by night, as tho it had bene
al of golde and set with stones; on the
toy of which mountayne was tree of
golde, the branches and bowes frysed
with golde, spredynge on every side
over the mountayne with roses and
pomegarnettes. The wiche mountayne
was with vices (screws) brought up
towards the kynge; and out Of the
same came a ladye apparelled in cloth
Of golde. and the chyldren of honor
called the henchmen, which were fresh

or the plant will quickly send forth
new shoots and perhaps seed close to
the ground, where ordinary moving
will not reach it.
If cut off the first year, the root is
not so deep is more tender, more
easily cut and more easily killed. If
prevented from seeding, sometimes BIZ
ennials will appear the third year.
Watch for such sprouts.
Cut Before FIowerinq.
Another point which may mark the
difference between success and failure
in your weed campaign is to cut just
before Towering. While the plant is
growing it is storing away vitality to-
ward the time when it shall need it for
fruit production. When it begins to
produce fruit, it draws on this surplus
stock. When it has budded it has used
large part of this stored vitality and
Is weaker than at any other time ex-
cept when it is very young. Now is the
time to cut. The seeds will not be
formed enough to live on to maturity,
the plant is at it's weakest and is more
readily killed. If in addition, the
weather is hot and dry, it is practically
certain the root will die
If you wait until it blossoms, some
of the seed may mature enough to
ripen even after the plant is cut down
and some seed will scatter for next
years weed crop. If after cutting the
seed seems to be mature enough to
ripen, the only safe way is to rake the
weeds together and burn them. Some
times seed which seems to be green
will mature after it is plowed under,
lie dormant in the soil until conditions
are favorable, then sprout.
Method for Perennials.
To eradicate perennials, the same
proposition holds: Prevent the old
plants seeding; kill the young plants
as they appear; kill the root stock.
The most absolutely effective way to
kill a root is to dig it out. It you have
only. a small patch and the Weedseare
really snoXious, this slay be the safest
way. # you have a large patch and the
roots are long and strong this is an III
most impossible task. In any case It IL

AT the Window

WHEN Christmas time is pretty
w near, if we're good girls
an boys,
Our mothers take us up the street an
IT let us see the toys,
An we forget that it is cold an that
our clothes is thin
An think we're mighty lucky just
to stand there lookin' in.
If we could only have our wish I
guess that we would pray
To have some angel come some
night an take that glass
away,
An it would pay the angel, too, to
see the mothers smile
If we could play with all those toys
for just little while.
Some day when we are all grown up
an rich as we can be,
If Santa Claus would just bring
things like those in there
An for awhile it seems almost as if
he really had,
An then member that he amt,
an, my, it makes me sad!
Some day when we are all grown up
an rich as we can be
We're goin' to buy store like that,
an when kids come to see
The things inside we'll let 'em in to
help themselves to toys.
An, my, we know what that will
mean to little girls an boys!

How to Make Dream Cakes on Your
Chatting Dish.

How to Make Dream Cakes on Your
Chatting Dish.
The easiest things in the world to
make in chatting dish are dream
cakes. and everybody who likes a rare
bit will rave over these toothsome
dainties, which are built of cheese,
cream and slices of bread. They are
less trouble than the ordinary Welsh
rabbit, which requires a good many
ingredients and prolonged cooking,
aud they are ''hearty" enough to make
q sustaining supper after an evening
Of bridge. Two or at most three dream
cakes will be all the average person
can eat, unless he is willing to risk
the possible weird dreams which are
said to have given these rich delica-
cies their name.
Press half pound Of soft rarebit
cheese through potato curler or
colander until you have pile Of light,
haky cheese particles. Mix with the
cheese half cupful Of sweet cream.
Season with pinch Of salt, paprika, a
dash Of mustard and b teaspoonful of
Worcestershire sauce. Have ready
slices Of bread, cut rather thick and
with the crusts trimmed of. Spread
one slice thickly with the cheese, an
other slice down upon 1t and then
brown the sandwich thus made In a
chatting dish brazier in which butter is
bubbling. When golden brown and
crisp serve piping hot on small plate.
Do not have the sandwiches too large;
small ones will brown more quickly.
Ordinary slices Of bread, trimmed at
the edges, may be cut in two diagonal
ly to make three cornered dream cakes

How to Teach Children the Great Law
Of Cause and Effect.

W S&WOV 0ss0 SuOS~
Children should be taught from the
beginning the great moral law Of cause
and effect, not to look for wealth with
out work, for honor without honesty.
Teach them that character stands
above surroundings and that esteem
should be bestowed where 1t is due.
whether for mental endowment or ma
terial wealth.
1t is not all of morals to moralize,
and less precept aud more example is
to be commended. The living realiza-
tion, the quiet suggestion, the favor
able opportunity, are the efficient teach
ers. Ignorance is responsible for
great deal of wickedness, but evil ex-
ample and parental neglect are re-
sponsible for vastly more.
a sense OF right and wrong should
be cultivated early in child's life.
and much may be accomplished In this
direction before the child leaves the
mothers nursery training.
