venting the Importation of intoxicating

opposed.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS BALL.

So many "annuals" occur in the au- tumn months that were it not for the fact that some stand out prominently as social events of the first magni- tude, we would doubtless pass them by. The Knights of Columbus Ball was not one easily forgotten. Prepa- rations on the part of the managers of the affair had been most carefully made and as a result sixty couples were in attendance at Marlar's Hall, where the spacious floor and excellent music made an evening delightful in every detail. Quite formal in its in- ception, the event was the signal for many lovely evening gowns among the fair sex which added to the low liness of the event. The geniality of of the hosts helped to win for them many compliments on the successful occasion and a repetition will be heartily welcomed at any time.

DELIGHTFUL LODGE BANQUET.

Quite the most delightful affair in many a while, was the celebration and banquet on Friday evening in the lodge rooms of the Odd Fellows and Rebeccas. The Odd Fellows, being good fellows as well, joined with the ladies in this sixty-sixth anniversary of their organization. The early part of the evening was given over to the juveniles who entertained most de lightfully with a musical program, in- terspersed with recitations.
 A program of song with solos by Miss Sweating, Mrs. Allen. Miss Dent and a quartettes of ladies voices, Mrs. Allen, Mrs. Porter, Mrs. Clark and Miss Sweeting, pleased and de- lighted their audience, and reading by Miss Johnson was most heartily applauded. As is customary on such occasions, the part by no means least enjoyed is the spread. Of unusual proportions and excellence, the ban quet was a delight to the sixty guests assembled about the board.
 All formality was laid aside at its conclusion and the remainder of the evening was given over to dancing.

A PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR OF ARIZONA Executive Department
 State of Arizona.

WHEREAS, It is necessary for the United States to raise, during this, the first year of our war with Ger many, eighteen and one-half billions of dollars, or about forty-seven of each one hundred dollars that we earn;
 WHEREAS, Our Government must get this astounding amount either by taxation of the people or by borrow ing from them and is seeking through the sale of Liberty Bonds, to obtain, part of this huge sum with which to carry on our share of the conflict and provide means for our allies to prose- cute fight which must be won, if world democracy shall survive;
 NOW THEREFORE, I, THOMAS E. CAMPBELL, Governor of Arizona, under the authority in me vested, do hereby urge upon all those firms, companies, corporations and citizens, who are financially able to bear a share of this burden, to subscribe as literally as possible to the second is. sue of Liberty Bonds of the United States which is offered to the public. beginning October first, 1917, and would direct special attention to the following facts in regard thereto:
 We are in this War; we must win and to do it, the money must be found.
 The more the Government will al- low you to loan it, the less you will taxed; ease taxation by buying Lib erty Bond.
 Money is wasted on unnecessarics in our country which, if loaned to it., might turn the scale to victory and save thousand of precious lives.
 When you buy Liberty Bond, you have what is as good as money, to borrow on or to sell and it pays good interest.
 Taxes are a dead expense; they never come back; they pay no interest. You must be taxed if you will not buy!
 The civilized world is fighting, that Right may prevail and that the world be made safe for honest people to live in. Our boys are giving their lives; our, allies, their lives and mon ey, and the least we can do is to sup port their efforts.
 Do your share. Duty demands it; common sense advises it and your Government expects it.
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed. ..... (SEAL.)
 Done at Phoenix, the Capitol, this 28th day of September, A. D., 1917. (Signed) THOMAS E CAMPBELL, Governor. Attest:

INTEREST GROWING IN
 RED CROSS WORK

More and more enthusiasm attends the Red Cross meetings. The work room is now the scene of activity showing results. Visitors during the week just past are shown finished products packed in their huge boxes ready for shipment. Mrs. Colin Campbell, as chairman of her commit tee, proudly displays a box represent ing material valued at approximately $500. Made up into sheets, pillow cases, towels and table cloths. One thousand finished articles! The box of comfort bags, numbering close to one hundred and twenty-five, are com pletely equipped not only with neces- sities but quite a few comforts be. sides. Some of these were given out again at the banquet on Thursday night. At this table also we find a splendid array of knitted articles jus. turned in.
 But for the scarcity of yarn this display would have taken on greater proportions by now.
 The banquet to the soldier boys who leave us will be big affair, as usual. The Red Cross ladies are giving thet,' services to help boost it. Mir. M. 4. Murphy and his committee called at the work room on Tuesday to enlist the aid of the organization.
 The ladies most willingly volun- teered to do their share in disposing of tickets and assisting in the prepa- ration of east. The gentlemen took time to voice their surprise at the splendid amount of work being turn ed out-for the boxes of hospital supplies and surgical dressings were then being packed.
