TEMpE'S OBSERVANCE

Commencing with Lincoln's birthday today, none of the three holidays that are due between now and February 22, will be passed by in Tempe without their appropriate observance. At the normal this morning homage is to be paid to Abraham Lincoln when an in- teresting program will be given by the members of the Athenian Debating club in assembly. Portions of the famous Lincoln Douglas debate will be offered by q team of debaters from the club as q special number. Wednesday is double holiday, St. Valentines day and the da' on which Arizona was ad- uiitted to statehood, and in all prob ability there will be a general ob- servance of it. The grade schools will of course hold their Valentines day programs. The postoffice and banks are to be closed for the day in obser- vance of Admission day and it is pos sible that some of the business houses will close for portion of the day. The Anozira club is to celebrate that even ing with special ball at the Cosmo- politan hall. Washington's birthday will be given its time honored obser- vance in Tempe and it.is likely that the two local schools will play their annual ball game that afternoon.

GINNING SEASON
 NEARING THE END

As the time for the close of the pres ent oinning season draws near, the cotton men are already directing their attention to the handling of next years crop and at the Tempe plant a new American made ginning machine IS be- ing tried out, with the idea in view if it proves a success, of ordering addi tional stand of the same type for next seasons work.
 The American gin was installed here recently by the Sea Island Cotton Gin company of Vadalia, Ga, and the short test it has already been put to proved quite satisfactory. Its work Is well on a par with the English gins that have been used heretofore, and when new feed apparatus that the gin men are now working on is completed, it's ca Uacity will be greater and the expense of operation smaller The feed ques- ton has generally been bothersome one but the method the ginners are now devising, if successful, will make it possible for one man to operate sev- eral additional machines over the two that he leeds at present.
 The ginning season. will be finished in Tempe shortly after the first of March, Superintendent Steele stated | yesterday The last of the Pima cot | ton is now being ginned and it will be | from two to three weeks yet before the 1 final pickings of the Yuma are in. IT the neighborhood of eleven hundred l bales of cotton will have been turned : out by the local gin at the close of the | season.

 Eugene Redewill is playing a new role IS inventor in ms Noteagraph. Several years ago he invented the appliance for transforming 65-notc player pianos into modern SS-note instruments, which was highly sue cessful and so well taken up by the eastern factory people that today you will find very few old-style 65-note instruments, they having been made into SS-note players, utilizing Rede- wills transforming scheme. Another invention Of MT. Redewills S is in con- nection with Jack Adams, chief clerk of the surveyor general of Arizona. The two worked out folding violin bow and case. which is also patented, and was about to be launched upor the market when the foreign war made it impossible to have them made in Germany, where most all violin bows are rnanufactured.
 The Noteagraph would soon prove q domestic and business necessity, and the friends of the inventor are urging him to put it on the market as early as possible.

EUGENE REDEW|LL ACCOMP[|SHES
 IMPOSSIBLE N|THN INVENTION

An invention that promises to be of household service for communica- tion, second only to that of the tale- phone, has been invented by local business man. The device has been termed Noteagraph. and it's use fills long felt want in every household and business office. To outline the instrument in detail would jeopardise the patent, inasmuch as many of the details are not yet in shape to ap- ply for patent: but the basic princi- pies are correct, and the demand for its services are requirement. unlim- ited.
 When demonstrated yesterday be- fore very few personal friends, Eugene Redewill, the inventor gave a practical test Of a crude model of his Monograph which, it is said, was so satisfactory that immediae prog ress will be made to perfect the model and get it into the proper channels for making it public | utility.
 The use of the Monograph comes into play while there is nobody home to answer a telephone call. knock at the front door, or message. It may be attached to any telephone, and the details will make it possible for either the telephone operator to leave a printed message on reel of paper, attached to the phone, or, if utilization cannot be made with the telephone companies to instill. it may be worked independently; but the advantage of the companies wires would save tremendous eX- pense of installation, only one addi- | tional wire being necessary wher used in connection with a telephone otherwise there would be two wires necessary.
 Imagine being away from home. ! and upon entering the house you pro i ceed to the Noteagraph and find Il message there awaiting you on your own private ticker in the Morse code, or regular alphabet letters. The present model of Mir RedeWill works only on the Morse code but he states it will be q simple matter to have this transcribed from regular alpha . bet letters to the Morse code and back again without much extra cost.
 The greatest drawback in most in ventions is the high cost; but the Monograph would not necessarily have to be expensive, and MT. Rede- will said he believed Photographs could be installed in every house, with spring motors for the propella
 tion of the ticker tape, under $5 apiece and if it is taken up by tlIe big companies, like his friends be- lieve it will be, the service could be installed to any phone at a cost not to exceed S1 per month per phone.
 MT. Redewili's rough working model is said to be propelled by an electric motor and not unlike in appearance | to a miniature fire department ap-

RADIO AMATEURS
 T0 TEST FIELD
 OUTFIT SUNDAY

Experiments with field wireless are to be conducted by the Arizona Radio association Sunday, February IS, ac- cording to plans formulated at a meet ing of the club Saturday night. This is the first time that any amateur radio organization in Arizona has ever at tempted field work.
 A portable wireless outfit has re- gently been constructed by we'll known local operator and it will be given its first test next Sunday. Sev- eral members of the A. R. A. will take to the field, from where efforts will be made to communicate with some Phoe- nix station.
 This homemade field outfit differs
 greatly from the professional outfits used in army circles. It is so con-
 structed that it can be erected on an
 automobile. It is hoped that it can be
 perfected to such a degree that it can be operated while the machine is trav- cling at high rate of speed. The proposed outing Sunday will be to Granite Reef, a distance of about twenty eight miles. The outfit will be erected on the automobile and attempts made to communicate with one of the
 amateur stations in Phoenix. If these tests are successful, similar experi-
 mentS will be conducted later at greater | distances

There was truth in every word of that meaningful little saying "Oh make me a child just for tonight" when the seniors gave their folk dance to the members of the faculty at the normal gymnasium Saturday evening. The af- fair was a return of compliments by the students to the instructors for a similar party given in their honor some weeks ago, and as when the faculty entertained delightful time was en- joyed. All of those dainty little dances that were so popular years ago, The Swedish clap dance, ribbon dance reap the flax. grandmother is dancing. barn dance and numberless others, ruled su- preme on this occasion and provided all of the pleasure and undoubtedly the more merriment than the now popular one-step and foxtrot might have done.
