P0STMASTERSOF
 STATEEND MEET

'sEfficiency of the Postmasters," was the topic discussed at the session of the Postmasters' association held at the federal building yesterday morning. About 25 delegates from all over the state were present, and short talks were made by Postmaster Nicholson, James L. Byrons and Mrs. Bertha M. Rees. The main thought brought out in the different speeches was to gain as much efficiency and service without cost to the government.
 The same officers were reelected for the following year. They are: Se- linn J. Nicholson, president; James l.. Byrnes, of Flagstaff, vice president; and Mrs. Bertha Rees of Wickenburg, secretary. The time and place for the next meeting was left to the president of the association
 This was the eleventh annual con- vention which is usually held here dur ing fair week. The first session of the convention was held Thursday morn ing, at which time Lewis T. Carpenter, collector of internal revenue, gave an address of welcome. MT. Carpenter S speech as well as those of the other speakers, were filled with words of pa- triotism. Other speakers were W. J. Daze, H. E. Pancreazi. James L. Byrnes and Bertha M. Rees.
 At the suggestion of Postmaster General Burleson, the convention was more of a patriotic rally of the postal officials than anything else.

SEvER|NCHAUS
 WINS TR0PH

H. A. Sevringhaus, manager. Of the Arizona Orange association, is greatly pleased this morning, he having won seven blue ribbons and one red ribbon on eight entries of citrus fruit. These ribbons speak not only for the fine quality of citrus fruit raised in the Salt River Valley, but also for care in se- lection. made possible by cooperation in the association.
 MT. Sevringhaus reports that the citrus crop is of unusually good quail ity this year and the demand for the fruit is greater than ever before. The entire crop is practically sold, it now being only a question of getting the fruit off the trees and shipped.
 A crew of experienced helpers for the packing houses arrived yesterday and everything is in readiness for a big citrus drive. Grapefruit in prime condition, is on the market now, and the oranges will start coming in next week and will continue until after the holidays.

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Consolidation of the Western, Central and Three l leagues and the formation of two or three substantial organizations were suggested to NJ. H. pexton, president of the National Association of Minor leagues, on his return tonight from the Louisville meeting. A. R. Tearney of Chicago, president of the Three l league, is back of the movement. Sex ton will call a meeting of the four league presidents in Chicago next month to consider the proposal.
 Edward G. Barrow, of New York, president of the International league, said tonight that If left to his decision, he would recommend the suspension of the league for at least year when the club owners meet in New York on December 10. The organization, he said, made no money last season and with war conditions becoming more serious, the prospects for 1918 are any thing but bright
 T think it would be good thing to give our territory a rest" Barrow said. Perhaps conditions will be better at the end of a year. It would be bad business judgment to attempt to start next spring."
 Barrow revealed that the proposed new circuit, which failed to materialize at the Louisville meeting, was to be called the Continetal isague.

London.-Some of the odd things

Gentlemen out at night are affect
ing white derbies, white shoes and
white gloves. "Anticollision" suits
they are called and they prevent col

"Zepp" drill instead of fire drill In
their schools. Children are taught to
file quickly into places of safety.
"Zepp" drills have also been inaug-
urated in many homes.
Suburban railroad fares have dou-
bled and tickets have grown smaller.
To effect saving on pasteboard, the
long green ticket of pre-bellum days
has been supplanted by ticket hard
ly larger than postage stamp.
With railroad fares increasing, the
government has not increased the
"three-quarters" reduced rates to the
atrical companies. Theatrical compa'
nies are not luxuries, according to
rulings.

ordered to wear clogs because Of the

That eminent self-aivertiser, Houa.-

of his purchase of the Bernhardt sta

the statue was presented to Nine.
Bernhardt by John Drew, In the name
of the actors of America, and after
wards was discovered not to have been
paid for. The sculptor's wife sent
Bernhardt a bill for 1t and Bernhardt
promptly responded that she had ac-
cepted 1t as gift and would send 1t
back rather than pay for 1t. A most
embarrassing situation ensued and all
. the newspapers commented upon IT..
Then came Hondini to the fore. He
paid the sculptor's wife for the statue
and wrote Nine. Bernhardt begging her
to keep it with his compliments and
forget an Incident which had brought
embarrassment to the door OF the
worlds greatest artistic. Houdini has
just finished tabulating the returns
from his press clippings describing his
highly commenGable act and linking
his name with Bernhardts have been
received. Over half of them were first
page stories. They average 15 lines in
length. Estimating this advertising at

has reaped the equivalent of an eX-
penditure of S56,340. The statue cost
