TRAIN |S SCENE
 RARE MEETING

c. M Zander and his sister ar rived in Phoenix Monday morning on the same train. But what makes this announcement of more than or dinary interest is the fact that the brother and sister had not seen each other for more than 20 years and that neither knew that the other was to be on that train.
 The chairman of the Arizona tax commission was returning on the Southern Pacific railroad from an ex- tended trip to the southeastern part of the country where he had attend ed the annual meeting of the Nation al Tax Conference at Atlanta, Ga.
 Mrs. Grace Zander Pugsley, whose present home is in Tacoma, Wash, was on an eastbound Southern Pa cific train from Yuma. Brother and sister took the same train at Mari copa for Phoenix.
 MT. Zander and Mrs. Pugsley last met at Omaha in 1896 at .':e family home. Shortly afterward Mrs. Pugs- ley went to Chicago to study music and MT. Zander came to Phoenix where he since has made his home Although both have travelled consid- erably about the country since then Mrs. Pugsley being business wom- ar, it so happened that they had not met until the unusual circumstance of Sunday night brought them to- 1 gether. The sister will visit at tht Zander home for two weeks.

 COOPERATION

No surprise was conveyed to British recruiting headquarters for the state of Arizona by the Associated Press dis patch from Ottawa, stating that the governments of Canada and the United States are negotiating an agreement to prevent men of either country from avoiding compulsiry military service by residing on the other side of the line. But some additional light was cast on the subject by Lieut.. J. A. Cro- zier. at Phoenix, the officer in charge in Arizona.
 "Co- operation in the matter of con- scripting aliens by the two countries has been pending for some time," Lieut.. Crozier said, "and it is probably de- layed by difference in their age linn it's making men eligible for the draft. In this country the maximum is 30 years while in Canada it is 34 years Consequently a Canadian over 30 and under 34 years, who could not avoid conscription in Canada is exempt from it in the United States Similar age dis crepancies between the conscription laws of the allied nations in Europe have been adjusted, and Canada and the United States will undoubtedly do 1 likewise"

LOCAL TALENT E SOON ID PRESENT
 MASCAGNI OPERA

The Phoenix Opera dub, recently or ganized by Charles Frederick Carlson. of the Arizona School of Music, has arranged to give a grand opera within the next three months The opera tG be given is "Cavalleria Rusticana
 composed by the famous Italian. Pietro Mascagni-pronounce for the sake of being correct, "Mahs- -kahn-yee." Cav alleria is one of the most tuneful and popular of one-act grand operas known to the music loving public, and is al ways among the seasons lists of grand opera given in the Metropolitan Opera House; not to forget the other great opera houses all over the world.
 MT. Carlson says: There is no good reason why any grand opera should not be given in Phoenix, as well as in other cities of no greater popula- tion, as long as good voices and the proper interest and stick -to-it-iveness. so to speak, can be found Because grand opera has not been given here before. is no criterion to go by. The Opera in question is not overly diff cult to sing, nor is it beyond staging possibilities; it is not too long, and it is not too classical to be appreciated by all who love music; it is very in tense and dramatic. and wonderfully
  peals to the emotions, and unless We are appealed to, in music we shall not | be moved or very much interested" | Eligible voices have been. and are being tried daily at MT. Carlson's studio at the school, and those who | are interested are invited to call and ask for information concerning mem l bership. So far, none of the principal parts have been given out, and not ! until MT Carlson has had time to eX- 1 anime, more fully, voices for the leads. can he determine who is to sing the various parts called for in the score.
 There is no brunch of art that will | put a city upon the map of recognition l quicker than will music,'' says MT. | Carlson and this is because music is the most appealing factor in all art: it is the most talked of, and the most | appreciated because it touches the heart easiest and has for it's main pur- pose one object, and that is pleasure and happiness. The cities most talked | of are those that do most in music | If there are any who doubt this, come to my studio and I will produce suffi- | cient evidence to convince the most | doubting Thomas who ever lived. Iu | every city where there are special do ings' in music, there will also be ar | unusual interest Tn other DfdncneS 0l art; also, there will be noticed a great CT and brighter business activity; this is because music brings mental sun shine. If the good people of this citA and vicinity will give me their interes and support, Phoenix can have a tast, of grand opera of which to be proud it is the rendition, the performance, and the opera I speak of, and not tht singers so much for we cannot af ford, at this first venture, to suppl, artists of reputation: but we can giv' good idea of grand opera-what i is like, and how music sounds to b called grand l hope to begin re hearsals within ten days time, an, soon to have decided upon the soloist for the principal parts, and I am quit proud of the vocal talent I have dis covered here so far"

 GOOD GOAT MILK

An interesting Bulletin No. 2S5 has recently been issued by the agricultural experiment station, Berkeley, Cal on the milch goat in California.
 In referring to the uses of goat milk it says:
 'The most striking results so far se- cured relate to the feeding of goats milk to infants. The station has had the opportunity of supplying this milk to a. fairly large number of very young children who were in serious physical condition, due, to their inability to properly digest and assimilate either modified cows milk or any of the commercial infants foods that were tried. In nearly all cases of this kind the physical condition of the children has been built up, and satisfactory growth has been brought about by the use of goat milk

publics of the south aggregated
$18S,000,000 compared with only
$65, 100000 in the corresponding
period in 1914. Imports from south
America totalled $433,oOO,OOO COM
pared with $157 100000 i'm 1914.
Thus it will be seen, this coum-

To Argentina, Peru and Chile, ex-
ports from the United States more

The records at Washington show
large increases in imports from
