ARTILLERY WORK IN
 PARADE WINS TITLE FUR 'Mij. EiRRHiRD7

Jake Earhardt, member of the Phoenix fire department, and the man who operated the cannon from the top of the squad wagon in the 100
 per cent American parade Saturday evening, is soon to become a builder of ships for Uncle Sam. Appreciative of his determination to do his "bit" for America, and in special recogni- tion of his ability to operate long range guns, an unusual honor was conferred upon him Saturday after noon when, before an assemblage of l firemen and other friends, he was commissioned major of the first ara tillery of the Phoenix Fire depart ment.'
 Early in the morning notices were
 posted about Central station calling attention to the fact that there was to be an assembly at o'clock in the ] afternoon. At the appointed time, | the assembly room at Central station | was comfortably filled with interested
 spectators, all of whom, with the ex-
 ception of Earhardt knew what was | coming.
 | In few we'll chosen words, Cap
 tain David Mercer introduced the
 speaker who proceeded to dwell upon | the lmpreSSlVeneSS Of the occasion
 the honor of being able to do ones
 bit for his country, the beauty of the
 American flag and all it stands for
 and the exceptional distinction about
 to be conferred upon one of the
 noblest and bravest of those present
 And then amid tense silence, the
 speaker called upon Earhardt to stand
 and receive his insignia of office as well as his official commission.
 l While Earhardt almost dumbfound-
 ed stood, there was pinned upon his
 suspender' a small flag from whici
 was suspended a poker chip. Int
 commission was a fearful and wonder.
 ful document signed by none othel
 than Pancho Villa himself. Earhardt's sole observation was: Why waste all that langwidge?" Before Saturday everybody calle, him Jake. Now it's Major Earhardt, given with a proper salute. And Jak beg pardon-Major Earhardt, say the old days were the best althoug he isn't thinking of relinquishing hi title.

IN 4 BOWER OF ROSES
 M|SSHELEN ELY WEDS

With only the family present, Miss Helen Ely, daughter of MT and Mrs. Sims Ely, yesterday morning became the bride of Harry Craig Richardson, Of New York at one of the most at tractive weddings of the year, which took place at the Ely residence, 14O4 North First street.
 Although the keynote of the occasion was simplicity, it was of the artistic type, more beautiful than any elaborate decoration. The ceremony took place under the rose pergola, and the relatives were grouped on the rose decorated porch as Reverend Bertrand K. Cocks read the service. The bride who was unattended, wore a becoming frock of beaded white georgette crepe and carried Cecil Bruner roses and lilies of the valley.
 Immediately following the service, a wedding breakfast was served in the dining room which carried out the | same decorative effects employed on the veranda. Baskets of pink roses were everywhere, the arrangement be- | ing unusually charming.
 MT. and Mrs. Richardson left for the east where they will make their l home. They will pass the first few days Of their honeymoon in San Fran | cisco, travelling to New York over the Canadian Pacific and making several | interesting stops enroute.
 The bride is an exceptionally clever young woman. Shortly after she was 1 graduated from Stanford University she went to New York where she studied at the Arts Student League. More recently she has had her own studio and has given her entire time | to fashion illustrations, her work hav- l ing appeared in Scribners, Harpers Bazaar and Good Housekeeping. She returned home a few weeks ago and the welcome she received demonstrated her popularity. She has delightfully."- pleasing personality. and a frank, un- affected manner is not the least of her charm.
 MT. Richardson, who is a graduate of Dean Academy, is eastern sales manager for the United Alloy Stee
 corporation. While his office is 1T
 New York, much of his time this sum-
 mer will be passed in Washington, D C., in the interests of war work. MT Richardson came to Phoenix a weel l ago and in the brief time he was hert
 made number of friends.

January Was Gold,
Mighty Cold. Month

With everybody reminded constantly
to save fuel. and most everybody try
ing to do It, the weather that keeps
eating away the coal pile becomes OF
peculiar interest to everybody that has
to buy fuel. And the weather Is even
more interesting after just passing
thru a January that was generally
known to be cold, but not Just how cold
as compared with the same month OF
other years. That Is why compari-
son Is interesting.
Summed up the proof is not lacking
that January this year vast one Of the
coolest, and evidently the coolest
with one exception in fifteen years.
The single exception was January.
1912, and a comparison Of the two may
cause dispute as to which really was
the colder.
In Janary this year the temperature
rose above zero, but not above freez-
ing, on twenty four days. 1t rose
above freezing on only four days. Now
In January, 1912, the temperature went
above zero, but not above freezing, on
|twenty-four days, but above freez-
ing on only two days. That much for
the maximum temperatures OF the two
months. On three days Of this Janu-
airy the mercury never went above
zero at ALL but during five days OF
January, 1912. the mercury kept be-
low zero all day.
This January there were eleven
nights when the temperature dropped
below zero, but not below 10 below
zero; four nights when it dropped to
nights when 1t dropped below 90. The
coolest night was 25 below, the last
night Of the month. Now in January,
1912. there were three nights when the
mercury went below zero but not be-
low 10 below: twelve nights when 1t
dropped below 10 but not below 90
and four nights when 1t dropped be-
low 20. The coolest night Of that
month the mercury stood at 81 below,
and there were two such nights and
two others when 1t went down to 80
AS a matter Of fact, when the weather
got real cold that month, it got so cold
it chased the. mercury in most Their
mometers clear into the bulb.
Except for January. 1912, this Janu
airy stands as the coolest month in If
teen years. There was no other Janu-
ary' Of the fifteen, when the tempera-
ture was above freezing so few times,
or went down to from zero to 10 be-
low so many times. One other Janu-
airy, that of 1905, shows moro nights
Of temperatures 10 to 20 below zero,
and still another, January, 1904, had
more nights with temperatures colder
than 20 below, but otherwise they were
as a whole warmer.
So that if the coal pile has shrunk
away like a pile of ice melting in the
sun, there is the consolation that your
job of firing the furnace has been up
against one Of the two coolest months
in fifteen years

When you come to tho end Of meat
less day.
And YOU sit at your evening meal.
With cabbage and beans and curried

To all the pangs you feel,
Do you think what the end OF meat

WIN mean to a hungry soul,
When he may eat all he can tuck away
And vanished Is Food Control?
Now, this is the end OF the meatlcss
day
That our enemies may not win
That rather than bow to tho U-boats

We must just set our teeth and grin.
That so at the end OF each meatlcss day
We may feel we have done our bit.
And faced the foe in the Yankee way
with courage, resource, and grit.
