NOTED WRITERS
 GUESTS IN C|TY

Phoenix entertained distinguished guests for few hours yesterday when E. o. Mccormick, vice president of the Southern Pacific, accompanied among others by Charles F. Van Loan and Harry Leon Wilson passed a short time here enroute for Roosevelt.
 From o'clock in the morning, when the party arrived in the private ear Sunset" until their departure at noon, they toured the valley and no tourists have ever expressed greater admira- tion for the sunshine state. Both Wilson and Van Lean declared their intention of returning for an indefinite period after their ten days outing at the Sierra Anchas ranch, and the same statement was made by the Interna- tional News service men who are also McCormick's guests. Two camera men were in the party and it is understood that a series of pictures will be filmed at the Tound-up on the ATmer Broth CTS ranch across the lake from R0ose- welt The cliff dwellings will also be visited before the party returns to Phoenix.
 Neither Wilson nor Van Loan claim the trip is for any other purpose than pleasure but insinuated that the ma terial gathered might be of use to them in later writings
 In Mir. McCormicks party are Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, MT. and Mrs. Mark Daniels. of San Francisco. MT. s..n Loan and Messrs Hubbell and Lewis of the International News Service.

STATE BANKERS
 MAY JOAN UPON
 LIKE SECURITY

According to a decision handed town by Attorney Genera Wiley F. Jones, state banks, and state savings and loan associations may under the banking laws of the state of Arizona accept as security the mortgages and bonds upon which the Federal Reserve banks have loaned money.
 Some time ago Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo wrote to Governor Carnp1eIl asking him about this, and soliciting his influence in having state hanks take such secu. dies. The govern or was not sure whether or not the banks could do so. He applied to Attor- uey General Jones for an opinion, which is as follows:
 Answering further your letter of the 27th ult. to which l responded briefly a few days ago, l will state that the laws of Arizona, dealing with banking institutions and swings and loan cor poratiOns, are not very lengthy and leaves many points not dealt 'Tith.
 Not having before me q form of the bond or instrument upon which the federal government ,naNes Il loan of public money upon farm hands, l am lacking considerable information which | should possess in answering your let ter and the inquiry prOpounded In the letter accompanying 1t, written by the Hon. Wm. G. McAdoo secretary of the treasury.
 "A savings and loan corporation, un der our statute, paragraph. 2l20,- Revised Statutes of Arizona 1913, can loan the funds of it's members, stockholders and depositors and invest the same upon adequate security on real CT personal property or personal security, with at least two sureties or endOrsers, for a period not longer than ten years. and not more than S20, 900 to be included in q single loan.
 Prom the law above quoted, it would seem that it would be permissible for q savings and loan corporation to invest it's funds in the securities or bonds mentioned in Mr. McAdoo's letter. cannot but presume that those acting for the federal goVe. nment, in lodning governmental monies, are taking every precaution to guard the interest of tho government in makins5 such loans upOf safe interest bearing securities ant that the title of the lands mentioned il the securing instrument is approve, and the lands therein described are o sufficient value to insure the lo2l made
 T also presume that the terms O the instrument are so set forth as [, fully safeguard the interests of tn government lending the money.
 ''Presuming, therefore as l have abOV expressed that all proper matters il making governmental loans have bee carefully looked after for the complet est protection of the government i making the loans, [ am of the opinio that a loan by savings and loan cor porations under the Arizona statute permitted upon the security above men toned within the period of time an the amount specified by the statute.

It sucked down with all it's living
freight, and spewed it forth into the
air again, end On-empty.
The engines stopped. The subma-
rine glided in. The single boat
seemed empty. No! There was a
woman aboard, and a man pulling
wildly upon one oar.
Donald took in the situation instant
ly. He turned to his aid, Davies, a
little, keen-faced MILDLY who was max
ing his first voyage in command c.
men.
STOW us, or run for Fair island ="
he cried. Then, flinging off his coat,
he leaped.
A few strokes carried him to the
whirling boat. And now he realized
that he had known all along that the
girl in it was Ida, miraculously saved
out of the great company of those who
had died. His heart beat a pean of
joy; at the sight of her his love awak-
ened, and he knew that this was no
transient passion, but an enduring one.
But just as he reached the boat he
saw the sailor at the oar stagger blind
ly toward the edge. It seemed as if he
were being dragged overheard against
his will! He whirled his arms and
plunged into the deep with a hoarse
cry that rang out far above the waters.

/ Another second passed. Then the
F55 went reeling under the terrific
force of the explosion. She spun
round under the waves and thrilled as
If she herself faced disruption.
The bilge-pumps cleared her diving
tanks. She rose, nose upward, scent
ing the air; her stern followed, and
she lay awash in the water once more.
The matches were removed.
Not vestige of the cruiser was to
be seen. She had sunk In less than
three minutes.
But hard by, not three-quarters of
a mile to port, a pillar of smoke, lit
up by fame, curled out Of the Beotia's
matches. Deeming her the submarines
decoy, the cruisers gunners had rid
died her with shells from the two 12-
inch guns at the bow.
She seemed to stagger through the
smoke that wreathed her. She was
dying by fire and water, too, and the
twin elements, in their eternal conflict,
rocked nothing of her human freight.
And Ida was there-Ida, doomed to
perish, if she were not already dead,
unless help speedily came!
Donald took the helm. The F55
rushed through the waves in the di-
rection of the Claude liner, which list
ed hard to starboard. Two boats had
already been launched, and bobbed
ridiculously beside her; others re-
mained high up in the air, impotent,
because the list prevented their being
lowered, and dashed themselves to
pieces against the hull as they swung
from the shattered davits.
AS the F55 drew near the ocean
seemed to open. Silently, softly, the
convexity Of the hull slipped down and
was lost to view as the suns edge
goes into the horizon. A swirl and
eddy in the sea, and nothing remained
except the two boats and some tiny.
doll-like figures that bobbed in the
water.
A gasp Of horror went up from the
throats of the seamen, clustered upon
the deck Of the F55, as the swirl
sucked down the boat that was the
nearer to the maelstrom of the wreck.

Are you going to give HallOwe en-
party? There is lot of fun for ev-
erybody in celebrating this feast Of
nonsense; it is an indulgence that
takes little time and money. The troop
Of Spooks, witches, black cats, pump
kns and lanterns that make HalIow-
cen madly joyous festival for the
youngsters has arrived Cn schedule
time and all ready to set off the hour
and table.
Some of this years table decorations
are shown in the picture above. They
are made of crepe paper, plain card
board and tissue paper, with little
help from pen and ink or water color
paints. Fine wire and paste and
very narrow ribbon is needed for some
of them and needle and thread for
others.
The witch shown is supported by
wire with round piece Of flar, white
cardboard at one end for the face.
About this wire others are twisted to
form the arms and legs. The face is
drawn with pen and ink and the hair
made of white tissue paper cut into a
fine fringe. At this stage of her ca
reC- the ,mcanny lady may be fastened
to Il fiat desk of cardboard by bending
the wires which are to support her at
the ends and sewing them to the board.
She is clothed in dress and cape Of
black crepe paper and has Il hat made
of plain black paper. The broom is
made of wire, wound with narrow
strips of yellow paper and fringe of
black paper. Ghosts are made in about
the same way of white crepe paper.
A small yellow cardboard box to
hold candy or nuts is suspended from
sunflowcr of yellow tissue paper
with cats face pasted over the cen
teri by narrow yellow ribbons. A disk
of white cardboard forms the fOunda-
tiOn of this piece, with the ends Of the
ribbon, the flower petals and cats face
pasted to it.
All the small paper dishes for Saltcd
almonds or cOnfectiOns are made of
yellow crepe paper parted over ready-
made foundations. A dish of this kind
may be transformed into basket by
adding Il handle of wire wound with
paper. A lit:ie covered candy box Is
shown with small helmeted figure

fall that more than justify the loyalty
of American women to the tailored
suit.
Just one of many beautiful new mod
els Is pictured here, but 1t will convince
the fortunate woman of today that the
best art of the costumes is at her serv-
ice. 1t is Of Russian green broadcloth
trimmed with French seal convertible
collar and buttons and would be
equally rich in amethyst, beet-root,
taupe or wine. 1t is an achievement
to be proud of and possession to re-
jOice in, now that 1t is fashionable to
be busy and nearly ali our days are
spent in street clothes. The skirt Is
quite plain and that term might also
be used to describe the coat in which
the tailor has relied upon originality
of design and beautiful adjustment to
the figure for the distinction he has
given the finished garment.

Wide Striped Stockings.

Perhaps the newest thing in stock
ings is the very wide stripe-from l
inch to Ia inches. These stripes run
vertically and are made In many col
ors combined with white. Another
new stocking shows a stripe formed
by what we should ordinarily term a
"-un"-that is to say, the stripe looks
simply as if the up and down threads
of the stocking had been pulled up and
lefs only the threads crosswise.
