Baby Hut" Built At
 Central and Adams
 To Aid In Campaign

The Baby Hut in the center Of Adams street between the Adams hotel and the Dwight E. Heard headquarters, opened it's door yes terday for the first time and will be there to take United War Work Campaign subscriptions until the close of the great drive next Mon day night. At the Baby Hut will also be welcomed any men in the service who happen to be in town during the drive. It is there for their comfort just as it's big broth CTS at trench and camp are always readys for the entertainment of the soldiers an dsailors of Uncle Sam.
 Mrs. Donald Dunbar is chief hostess for the hut and she and Miss Georgia Mintz were busy all yesterday afternoon covering the outside of the cozy little building with United War Work posters and making the inside comfortable for visitors. Mrs. Dunbar will be as- sisted as hostess in the Baby Hut" by Mrs. B. A. Gillespie, Miss Geor- gia Mintz, Mrs. Sims Ely. Jr, Mrs. w. s. Montgomery. Jr. Miss Fay De Mund, Mrs. Charles D. Wheeler. Mrs. Sidney Ross, Mrs. Joe Green. Miss Henrietta Olney. Mrs. Cass Redewill, Mrs. R. W. Metzler. Mrs. Carl Anderson, Mrs. Pat Butler, Mrs. Antrim, Jr. Miss Frye Dam eron. Miss Ruby Pascoe, Miss Ruth Goldberg and Mrs. Duckman Lor- illard.
 These young women will serve in teams of two and the Baby Hut" will be open from morning until quite late in the evening. Its first subscription was handed in by little Maryclare Woodbury, three-year- old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Clar- ence P. WOodbury of West Monroe street. The little miss gave 42 cents she had saved up in her toy bank. directing that it be used to buy candy for the soldiers.
 It is the hope that the Baby Int" will inspire the people of Phoenix to help make the state subscription so large that q big brother hut" at the farthest point the American army goes in France or Germany may bear. the honored name of the baby state-Arizona.
 The hut itself is a rush job turned out by the J. D. Halstead Lumber company. It was built in a day and donated for it's present use by MT. HalsteaG of the company who put aside other work to rush it through.
 The hut is illuminated from the outside by a flood of light on top of the Meltzer building across Gen. tral avenue, another flood light from the same building illuminat- ing the big map which marks the progress of the United War Work drive.
 McArthur Brothers donated a Delco electric lighting outfit so that the little hut is well lighted in side as well as out.

look forward with confidence" said MT. Gary. Upon a careful survey of the situation, it will be found there are many reasons for believing pros perity in this country should be con tinued. The United States is the rich est of all countries. If industry is pro- tected and fostered in accordance with it's merits. the war burdens surely, even though gradually, will be lifted.
 And, judging the future by the eX perience of the last few years, there will be a disposition on the part of those in authority to assist rather than to attack business effort Both capital and labor will be protected and re- garded. Employers will lead in the eff fort to promote the welfare of their Vorkmen.
 As a general proposition, it is still true that the optimist who keeps with in the limits of cash or stable cash re- sources will succeed. For the long future we have reason to believe that the country will be more progressive and more prosperous than ever be- fore.'

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Elbert H. Gary head of the United States Steel corporation, today warned the Ameri- can people to be on their guard against economic demoralization. depression and possibly panics,' which might ac- company readjustments after world War
 In q statement issued after he left for Washington to confer there tomor- row with the war industries board re- Sarding the steps necessary to return the steel trade to a peace basis, MT. Gary cautioned the public to "exerciSe prudence, deliberation and courage" as much depends upon the attitude and speech of men" He added that it is easysto precipitate feeling of demor- alization and no more difficult to de- velop a sentiment of confidence and serenity
 Asserting that, although there would be reduction in purchases for military purposes which might interrupt the conduct of general business, Mr. Gary declared there would still be "a normal and certain volume of business" Any attempt to secure more than a proper share of this business, he said, would impede rather than accelerate busi- ness.

United States AdmiraIs.

The first real admirals In the United
States navy were commissioned in 1862
when that rank was created by act of
congress. David Farragut, for his valor
In the Civil war, was made vice admir-
al In 1864, and two years later the
rank of admiral in the United States
navy was established for the purpose
of honoring him. The grade OF admiral
was revived In 1890 and conferred up
on George Dewey, the hero of Manila.
The highest rank of American naval
ofhcers In active service was, UP 20 q
short time ago, that of rear admiral.
The title of admiral was first used In
France, and the first French admiral
was appointed In 1884. A few years
later the title was adopted by the Eng
lish, and the rank Of admiral OF the
English seas was first given to William
de Leybourne by Edward / In 1927.

Secret Of Book Of Revelation.

The number $3.50 used in the Bible
as symbolizing the beast Is a constant
source Of speculation as to what per-
sonage the mystic mineral indicates.
According to Prof. S. Z. Slocum Of the
University of Cincinnati. the key to
the riddle lies in the fact that In the
case Of the Greek form of the name
of Nero. written In Hebrew characters,
the letters Of the name have each a
numerical significance according TO
the number notation of the Hebrews,
and the sun of the numbers is 666.
The apostle In excoriating the en-
peror would have Aound 1t unsafe to
mention him outright, or In some OBJ
vious symbolism, such as in Latin or
Greek numbers, while using Hebrew
characters would be fair ~concealment
TO Roman eyes. The other imagery
of the Book Of Revelation works out
strikingly in accordance with the as
sumption that John was writing dis
creetly about the prosecuting Roman
emperor. ,
