lAMARA

The problem of the modern woman forms the theme of ITO Honor and Obey" the latest William Fox photo play featuring Gladys Brockwell, which will be shown for the first time in Phoenix at the Lamara today. It is the story of wife used by her husband to advance his financial wei fare. How she battles for her honor, the honor of her child and brings to justice the man whose faithlessness causes her unhappiness, is cleverly tCld in a series of interesting pictures that have been filmed under the su pervision of a master director.

the outcome of the venture Is showi
 by the recent issuance of S25,000 oi municipal bonds to provide for the construction of a foundation for mu nicipal warehouse, to be used for per ishable freight.
 The Minneapolis Tribune says of the venture:
 With better facilities at terminal points and better organization for the movement of freight roth ways. the fates, it is expected, will be such as to make the liver of immense practical service as an actual carrier, as well as i rate regulator. With modern equipment the Mississippi river ought to be as much of a rate regulator, and perhaps, in time, as much of carrier as the Great Lakes themselves-and the development of internal commerce contains as yet no parallel to the growth of the Great Lakes traffic. It is factor on the side of the river that it will be closed in winter only on the upper stretches, and even then for a much shorter time than the Great Lakes"
 The construction of the Panama canal brought the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the United States so much nearer together by water as to place the interior at a disadvantage but promoters of the scheme for water way tapping the interior of the con- tinent declare the opening of the Up- per Mississippi, with the establish ment of great channel of commerce frNm Minneapolis to New Orleans will give the mid continent states a share in the benefits of the canal.

FIRST PHOENIX 5AWM|LL SO0N T0 BEGIN OPERATIONS IN b|C SCALE;
 2O,OO0 FEET WILL BE CAPACITY

Phoenix has a saw mill. That does not sound very odd, unless it is con- sidered that the mill is several hun dred miles away from the camps where lumber is cut for the market
 This saw mill is something entirely new in Phoenix. In fact it is the only manufacturing establishment in PhOe- nix. if to manufacture means to take the material strictly in the rough and change it to the finished product.
 A. G. Smith, the grocer and real es- tate operator, owner of the Arizona apartments is the leading spirit in the saw mill. The business is known as the Arizona Saw Mill x Wood com pany. The mill is situated at Eighth and Madison streets and the railroad tracks. The business represents about $l5.00O and 25 men are employed. The mill at present is running only on q limited scale, awaiting it's completion aS q life sized saw mill. Then it will turn out 10000 feet of lumber daily.
 The logs for the Phoenix saw mill are shipped direct from the Smith logging camp near Williams in the northern part of the state Already more than 100000 feet of logs are on the ground at the mill, and Smith is now at work reducing them to lumber.
 The slabs and sawdust are handled to great profit by reason of the mill being situated in Phoenix. The slabs from the logs are sold as fircwood, and the sawdust sold to merchants and others wishing sawdust for floors and for cleaning purposes.
 The concern is owned by A. c. Smith and his son, Marvin Smith. Will Porter is the manufacturing superin- tendent at the saw mill.
 Why did you decide to establish your min at Phoenix instead of at the lumber camp?" was asked
 smith replied: Because of several re"@ore Ora of them is we can get

Here's a bit of movie etiquette:
 Always read the film titles aloud to little Oswald
 When seated in the middle of pie ture never hurry to remove your hat. Never be satisfied with the first seat you select. It is the correct thing to try two or three seats before making up your mind.
 The people behind you will enjoy your conversation with your friends.

These go to waste at the lumber camp. The money derived from the slabs and sawdust re- duces greatly our freight bill on the logs

 Our social life is undergoing rapid changes. Wise leadership is needed to prevent the loss of the fine things in the old-time chivalry which grew out of the rather uncertain glamour that made the fair lady's favor dependent upon the service of the gallant knight. Men and women of vision and power must combine their efforts in leader ship to preserve the real values which constitute the charm of sex differences existing at the core of family life.
