my advice to girls who think ct com
ing over ere is don't come out ex.
pecting a picnic, because you won't
g~t it. Whenever we feel inclined to
grumble at certain. things we think
of the men in the trenches, and we
feel that our grievances sink into
insignificance by the side Of the sac
rifices they are making

will be doing a public service and
best honuring her hero's memory II
she puts on her old colored dress and
goes unwhiningly about her daily
duties.
She saddens no one lse with her
sorrow. She stabs no other woman
to the heart with a remembrance OF
her own loss or a sudden fear OF the
dread fate that may be coming 10 her,
too. Her colored dress worn when her
very soul Is black with mourning, is
the red badge OF courage. She 10 do
ing her bit to keep up the morale OF
the men at the front and the women
at home.
Another reason why women should
not wear mourning during the war Is
because it Is needless waste and ex'
pense. We need the looms to weave
other cloth than black goods. We need
the money that mourning costs for
other purposes-to feed the living and
clothe the naked.
Every woman has Q lot Of dresses
that have months and perhaps. years
Of service In them that would have
been thrown away II she went into
mourning. Going into mourning also
involves a thousand expenses in the
way Of the small but necessary ad'
iuncts to q woman's toilette. Black
articles have to be Of better quality
than colored ones and consequently
cost more. The price Of very cheap
mourning outfit would buy a liberty
bond. The cost Of complete mourn
ing Equipment for q well-to-do family
would buy many liberty bonds.
It Is said that this war Is going to
be won by money and that the victors
will be those who have the last big
guns and the last tons Of shrapnel
Therefore the women Of the country
cannot only do q big patriotic duty,
but ayenge their dead by putting their
money into bullets instead Of crepe.
Another reason, and perhaps it's the
most important reason Of all, why
women should not wear mourning dur.
ing this war Is because OF the effect
that clothing themselves in black viii
have upon their own health and spir'
its.
That women are depressed by wear
ing mourning and are made sick and
nervous. is q well established fact.
Every time a woman looks down at
her black gown It brings back to her

A woman sent to base camp

ACCUSED SAID
To Be KING Of
B00TLEGCERS

The trial of Sunny" Smith, believed
to be a boss bootlegger, was begun in
superior court yesterday afternoon
There was some delay in securing a
panel. In fact enough jurors were not
available until after the disposition OF
the forcible entry and Getainer case OF
Woonan against Bruner and others.
But except the jury, everything else
was in readiness for the erial. Beside
the table of County Attorney Laney
there was full case of whisky which
had been taken in a raid on Smiths
stronghold.
Smith is colored person, associated
with the Glover Leaf club which is

again. Some mention of it was made
the day before by young colored man
charged with the theft of Q lot Of
jewelry the property of George Kane
and which had been paWned at the club
or money which the defendant said was
lost in gambling there. The manage
ment of the club probably regarded the
money "a good deal like the treasury
department of the United States looks
upon the money which is to be loaned

1t is the contention of the state with

quantities and that his means of dis
tributing it involves the taking of il

automobile is met and there it is turneu

MAIDS
JUST RAN AWAY

Two little Phoenix girls, both aged
twelve, and out of that vast experience,
judging that their home lives were not
what they ought to have been, slept
last night at the Detention Home, so
that they will be prepared now to COM
pare the existence there with their eX-
istence at home.
They left to shift for themselves some
time on Thursday. Their absence was
reported at the sheriff's office yester-
day and Deputy Sheriff z. j. Warren
set out in search of them. He located
them in the evening at Eastlake park
where they said they had spent the
night and were preparing 10 roost there
again last night.
The officer found that they had been
at 1918 East Washington street until 10
o'clock at night but they refused to give
any account of their movements after

MR., GARCIA HAS
A TAKING WAY

Grenacio Garcia was before Justice
Wheeler on the charge of attempting
to remove surreptitiously the second
hand stock of P. Morden, Washington
and Fourth streets, on the installment
plan. 1t was brought out at the trial
that Garcia called there one morning
recently to look at a ''chiquita" watch.
He wanted a small one because it did
not cost so much as a big one. The
price was SO. He started with an offer
of 81 and got up to $2.75 when he broke
off negotiations and went away.
The watches We're kept in a case
which was locked and after his depar-
ture was not opened again until Garcia
called again in the afternoon to renew
the parley. 1t was then that the clerk
missed one of the watches that had
been in the case in the morning. He
did not at first suspect Garcia of hav-
ing taken it and probably would not
have suspected him if he had not
caught him trying to steal another.
Again he went away but returned the
following morning on more watch bust
ness. He was detained by Mr.. Morden
until a policeman could be called and
he was taken into custody. Garcia was
fined $40.
