 BIT IN PLEDGE
Pledge Card Signatures inI This County Pass Quota
 and More Are Coming in To Food Administration

Maricopa county went over the top" in emphatic fashion on the Pledge Card campaign. The quota of the state has been reckoned at 10000 families, out of which Maricopa coun ty was expected to sign up l,O0O.f She has reached 103 per cent, though the campaign is being continued, under dl- rections from Food Administrator Hoover. Already in the office of County Chairman Dr. J. C. Norton has been listed 7,260 signatures. It would be well could these signatures be list ed by districts, but such a course is impossible, owing to the fact that many district leaders sent their cards direct to the State Food Administra- tion office in Phoenix often with only a postmark for/ local Identification. Membership cards still are being called for and are being received both by the county chairman and the Food Ad- ministration office and workers are telephoning that they are cleaning up their districts with the expectation of securing a card from every house. It is asked that anyone overlooked call at once upon either the county or state Food Administration offices and sign a card.
 pr Norton expresses the utmost qualification over the good service of hundreds of volunteer workers throughout the county. He states that it is impossible to compile a complete list, but from the roster have been selected the names of the precinct leaders, who marshalled the forces for the week. Especial credit is consider ed due Mrs John Dennett. Jr., vice. chairman, Ulysses C. Nye, county manager, the officers of the State Council of Defense and Food Admins tration, the members of the executive committee, Miss Imogene Nicely, Unit ed States Home Economies director, Mrs. J.

Abandonment of Grand Avenue Is
 TnsiEle I Informal

A. A. Betts, of the state corpora ton commission, in a letter yes terday to Superintendent Mitchell of the Phoenix Street Railway company, took judicial notice of an advertisement in The RepubIi- can apprising the public of the intention of the company to aban don the Grand avenue line. There was time when such an aban- donment could have been effected in that informal way, but the let ter of Mir. Betts reminds the su- perintendent that an action Of that kind must have the approval of the state commission.
 The letter assumes that Mir. Mitchell is aware of the relation between the commission and pub- lie utilities companies and voices the expectation that the comnis- sion will shortly hear from the superintendent on that subject.

Ethel Barrymore at Hip.

Ethel Barrymore, gifted dramatic star of the stage and screen, is at the Hip today and tonight for the final times in what her admirers say is her best screen effort, "Life's Whirlpool" a drama of the day.
 "Life's Whirlpool" dealing as it does with the fortunes of a girl-wife thrown by fate or circumstance into the very vortex of the whirlpool life, lends to Miss Barrymore a fine opportunity to exercise the dramatic talents that made her great stage star. It is featured bX a strong plot done in Miss Barrymore's own home.
 To those who have followed the fortunes of this gifted woman peep at her home should be a novelty. Miss Barrymore in private life is Mrs. Rus sel Colt, wife of the son of the pres ident of the Colt Arms company, and her millionaire husbands home fur nishes the settings for "Life's Whirl- pool"

William Farnum at Empress.

In turning back the pages of Amer ican history, the name of Sam Houston stands out prominently in letters en- blazoned with fearless bravery and ul- dying loyalty. It is the career of this famous fighter that forms the plot for "The Conqueror," Wm. FoX's photoplay which comes to the Empress today for a four days engagement and In which William Farnum is seen in the role of Sam Houston. The picture was produced by R. A. Walsh who was responsible for "The Honor System" which created such a sensation when presented recently at this house.
 The life of General Sam Houston, one of the country's most famous frontier characters, is depicted on the screen amid an abundance of realism and detail. The Mexican marauders of the early 40s, their depredations and their repulse by the cavalrymen and Indians under General Sam Houston i. one of the most picturesque battlo scenes ever filmed no picture excepted The love story of The Conqueror" is charming. and the dramatic action is Skillfully built.

BUYING LIBERTY BONDS IS
NOT AN ACT Of CHARITY

When you buy United States Lib

away anything. Your act of purchas.
ing is not an act of charity. What.
ever money you have you possess be.
cause you have lived and worked in
1he glorious United States. Today the
United States needs ready money to
help win the war, to provide food
clothing and transportation for our
soldier boys. So our government saws
to you: Loan US $50 or $1OO, or what.
ever amount you like, and we will nav
you 81 per cent annual interest (pav.
ments every June Is and Dec. 15), and
in addit On to that we will pay Won
back the entire amount you lent us
Also, If the interest rate on our bonds
goes up, we will advance your interest
to the highest rate"
That's fair, square proposition
