LOYAL SOLDIER
 WRITES ABOUT
 FUNSTON LIFE

Waiving q chance to get out of the army because he believes Uncle Sam needs his services is the patri- otic sentiment expressed by R. o Gruwell, Jr., of the 340th, Field Ar tillery at Camp Funston. in 8 letter to his father, R. O. Gruwen, who lives near Chandler.
 Mixing with people from other states makes him appreciate Arizona all the more, so he writes. There is plenty to do at Camp Funston, but he, in common with most of the other men ih the army, likes the army life.
 The government plan of furnish ing cheap insurance to the soldiers is much appreciated at the camp. and Bob" Gruwell has taken the opportunity of securing large amount. Following is his interesting letter:
 Am just in recept of your most welcome letter of December and was very glad to hear from you Am always anxious to hear from you as you always give the full particu- lars of the conditions on the farm. Mother writes all the social news, so between the two of you 1 am kept quite well posted
 To-day has been a very ouee. day. We went through the final examinations and it took most all day. There are a few fellows who will be turned loose. I could get out of the army, or l could have today, but l Waivered my claim and wont have another chance I am here now and have gone through the worst part so am willing to stay and do my part and do it cheerfully. l would have given anything for my freedom month ago, but it looks now like Uncle Sam really needed a httle assistance, so I am perfectly willing to contribute my services.
 T bought $10,000 worth of insur- ance today. It costs me 66 cents per thousand a month, which amounts to $6.6O for the s10.00O a month. It is the best thing the gov ernment has ever done for it's sol dlers. The insurance is good after we get out of the army, but we will have to pay few cents more after we are released. l am as happy over it as a boy with new sui; of clothes.
 T truly hope that we are sent tc DOuSidS lO IlillSn our training but have not heard anything about it SC far. l can see that some new move Is coming soon. It is very cold here and somewhat disagreeable at times but we Arizona boys stand it with less complaints than many of the others.
 T believe I have changed my mind about liking Arizona. I have seen quite q bit of country since left home and d good many people but Arizona and her people have them all skinned.
 T will have to go on guard dutN again tomorrow so will stop scrib. bling and go to bed for I wont get any sleep for 22 hours. Guard dut, | comes quite often now as four O l the other Batteries are still under | quarantine.
 Am well and getting fatter ever, day. Will close, hoping this will finC you all we'll
 Your affectionate son.

Enemy Alien Has First Ditch of
 Water [Defemses

Phoenix is threatened by an "en- eny alien" for German measles has seized hold of one of the members of the Water Users association force though the young woman.in question is trying to camoufIage the public by insisting that the attack is one of "Continental Measles" An investigation discIoses the fact that this German enemy has really vis- tied the Phoenix home in question, though through preparedness it is not expected that serious foothold will be secured by the Hun.
 Efforts to persuade the federal authorities to investigate this len emy alien" have proved unavaiIing for the authorities insist that they .haVe never been personally visited by German measles and do not pro- pose to make unnecessary Teutonic acquaintances at this time-espec- tally those of germs from Germany.

codowsky's One Appearance

Leopold Godowsky, whose only ap- pearance in Arizona is at the Elks the ater on Saturday. January 19, is un- doubtedly one of the greatest pianlsts in history. Godowslky is Russian Pol ish by nativity and was born on Feb ruary l3, 1870 in the picturesque and historic old town of Nilno or Wilma in Lithuania, and in the shadow if the ruins of the romantic castle, dating from feudal times, which enhances the Citv's poetic perspective.
 In this imagination -quickening at mosphere the child spent the first 10 years og his existence; eylncinS indeed an inclination and aptitude for music almost in his cradle and before the age of three he was lingering the keys of the piano.
 In 1883 Godowsky took up his resi- dcnce in Berlin where he attended the famous Hoch Schule, whose scheme of instruction. dull and conventional found so little favor with him that he departed from the city after q few months residence.
 He was a lad of IA when he left for tour in America.
 The young pianist's one aspiration and ambition was to become the pupil of LisZt in Weimar, and his was a bit ter disappointment after his return to Europe when he learned of the recent decease of his idol; disappointment somewhat ameliorated. less than a year later, by an introduction to Saint Saens, who after hearing the boy play several of his own compositions, inn mediately manifested the most enthu- siastic interest in GodOwsky.
 But the restless and incessant activ- ities of Saint Saens made continuous study with him impossible. In the end Godowsky became practically his own teacher.

and he has had some very flattering offers to abandon the concert stage and adopt musical comedy.
 That the grand opera stage has never tempted this splendid American baritone is in a certain sense rather strange, because his distinguished father, George Werrenrath, the noted Scandinavian tenor, who was known and respected by the concert and opera goers of yesterday, was a rare operatic artist and his son must have inherited the dramatic feeling as well as a splendid musicianship. an honest approach to his art and q versatility that can only exist in one who has stage ability. Reinald Werrenrath has never interested himself very much in the art of dramatic readings to mu- sical settings. but since new features have been called into play he has won some distinction through his recta- tion of the w. B. Neshit poem, Your Flag and My Flag which became so popular that he recited it for the Vic tor Talking Machine company.

Princess Virtue" at Hip

Here is a story that any one can en- joy. It is a srnartly told tale of a young American widow who goes title mad and takes her daughter to Paris where she earns the title of Princess Virtue" Her New England grand mother, who has little sympathy with the fool mother, sends her nephew over to Paris to see what sort of fool the girl is being made into, and then things happen so fast that the telling would spoil a picture with such an appeal that anyone must admit it is Miss Murray's greatest effort despite the fact that her Paramount picture The Dream Girl was a classic of it's days. Princess Virtue is on for today and Saturday and the Saturday date is to be augmented with additional feature while today holds the Pathe News as it's side dish.

Concert Tickets Sell W.lI

It IS interesting to note the unanim- lty with which the leading critics and musicians of the east have accorded 10 the Minneapolis Symphony orches- tr2 Its position as one of the two or three greatest orchestras in the coun- try. Charles H. Meltzer considered by many the most able critic in New York wrote as follows:
 Tt is safe to say that with the eX- ception of the great Bostonian organ lzation founded by Col. Higginson, no body of musicians in this country which devotes itself to symphony, has excelled the Minneapolis society. But for local pride I might be tempted to add-none has equalled it''
 The Musical Courier said editorially:
 Let it be said at once that the visit of the Minneapolis Symphony orches- tra has fulfilled the Musical Courier prophecy, for we have today in New York no playing body and no leader on par with the northwestern organ ization and its conductor.
 During the past five years no or chestra in the country has travelled more extensively and the success of the orchestra and its remarkable con- ductor Emil Oberhoffer, has been lit tie less than sensational"
 Eugene Reedwili, local manager of the orchestra, stated that the ticket sale at the Central pharmacy yester- day was very large and from indica- tions there will be a complete selling out long before the concerts. the after noon and evening of January 3l.

Jack Pickford is the youngest member of the celebrated Pickford family, and despite the over whelming handicapped position of be- ing the brother of the world famous Mary, he has rapidly forged ahead until today he is one of the best known juve- nile actors in pictures. Louise Huff, who costars with him is a southern girl, whose charming mannerisms and captivating smile have endeared her to the fans throughout the land. The present bill is a combination of life on the streets of New York and life on d Texas cattle ranch, close to the Mexi- can border. It deals with the love of two waifs of the metropolis, who have been inseparable since childhood, which fact has gained for them the nickname of Jack and Jill"

County Attorney of Gila
 States Courts Are Now
 Free from Interminable Disputes of Former Days

With the Old Dominion of Globe running within 10 men of the biggest force in its annals, the Miami Copper company employing more than it's usual quota, and the Inspiration Con- solidated Copper company working a 100 per cent American force, though only 50 per cent in number of it's usual quota, the copper industry in Gila county is thriving, according to Coun- ty Attorney Hugh E. Foster who is in Phoenix on official business from Globe.
 "The Inspiration company evidently intends carrying out to the explicit letter interpretation its announced policy of hiring only American citi- zens." said MT. Poser last night at the Adams hotel. Though some diff ficulty is being experienced by the company in getting all-American labor, it is felt that better conditions will result from strictly sdhering to this plan"
 MT. Foster said that the Gila county courts are at last cleared completely of the numerous labor disputes which occupied virtually their entire atten- tion for several months. A better feel
 
 lems of labor and capital in the future, at least during the progress of the war, were intimated by the Gila county of ficial.
 Business conditions are not quite back to normal in Globe and Miami, according to MT. Foster, the setback resultant from the prolonged strike having left it's traces on the general situation. A propserous era in the near future, however. was prognosticated by him.
 The only ill feeling remaining in our section of the country" said Mir Foster. lis the clearly defined policy of the companies in refraining to en- pioy some local men believed to be instigators of industrial unrest The compliance of the copper companies with the eighty per cent law is a thing which will obviously result from the stand taken by the companies, who of their own volition will follow out it's dictates.
 Labor Men Here F. w. Barnes, former secretary of the Miami Miners union, during the strike and George D. Smith, secretary of the Globe Miners union, both of whom were strongly identified with the labor disputes in Gila county. and who were involved in lae resultant s.- 1 perior court cases, are also in Phoenix. MT. Barnes, who is no longer con- nected in an official capacity with the Miami miners union, said last even | ing that the labor situation is clearing | up satisfactorily in the district from which he halls. and corroborated the | statement of MT. Foster regarding the | operation of the mines at full capacity with the exception of the Inspiration properties.

"The Tenderfootu at CoJurnbi.

To what lengths a woman will go for the man she loves, although she knows he is promised to another. is strikingly shown in "The Tenderfoot." which will be the attraction in the Columbia theater today.

Knowing nothing of this and his fiancee having fled the town. the Tenderfoot meets his adversary in Woifeville's saloon and after an ex- change of shots drives him from town. William Duncan and Carol Holloway have the leading roles.

NUT of the bleeding heart of Europe there comes
~ a cry heard above the moan of the broken body
racked with pain. The Soul of Freedom, at bay
with Death, cries out to save Liberty for the race of
men.
It is your Liberty, your nations freedom, your
children's birthright, that is fighting for it's life.
All that life holds for you as an American is at
stake in this war, and you must fight for it to the
utmost limits of your power.
We cannot all be in the trenches, but every one
Of us can-and mnst-sustaint those who are.
Not as an act Of mercy, but as an act of war
as a Soldier of the Nation-help the Red Cross heal,
support, cheer our Soldiers and Sailors Of Liberty
that they may fight the sooner, the harder, the longer
in this Holy War.
Give to the Red Cross every dollar, every cent
that you possibly can-give till your heart says stop.
