WOMEN WANTED
 T0 JUN CLASS

That the homes will have to sacri- flee skilled nurses in order that the institutions of the country might not suffer, is the statement made by Mrs. Win Wylie, chairman of F'ird Aid who, in an open letter, points out the need of having women avail them selves of the opportunity of joining the classes ping organized by the Req Cross. Mrs. Wylie writes as follows:
 The class in elementary hygiene and home care of the sick. which we are trying to organize, should appeal 10 every woman in this community. Any one of education over 16 years of age is eligible. The object of this course is to teach women personal and household hygiene in order that they may acquire those habits of right liv- ing which will aid in the prevention of disease, the upbuiIding of a strong people and to give thems imple in structions in the care of the sick Tn their own homes, which will fit them to render intelligently such service as may be safely entrusted to them. | Those taking the course will not only find it helpful in their own 1 homes but they made be better able ! to assist should the Red Cross re- quire their services in rest rooms convalescent homes and other activi- i ties.
 The fact that we are to send 5000 more graduate nurses to France by January l, 1919, and having had only S0,000 to 90,000 in this country before any were sent into service, it stands to reason that the homes will have to sacrifice skilled assistants. The in ! stitutions of our country will have to be provided for first. hence our local women should avail themselves of this opportunity and take this course of fifteen lectures of one hour and a half each given by Red Cross in structor. The classes will be con- ducted two evenings a week and. since we require quite extensive an equip ment, charge of $5. each, will be made. Blanks are at the Red Cross desk in the Chamber of Commerce. Please make application at once as
 We desire to begin the lectures next
 week in order that the course may be
 completed before the summer vaca- tions.

When Sammy Comes Home

Don't worry, mothers, your Sam mics are coming back to you better men than when they went away" says Private W. F. Collinge, of Canada s Fighting Seventh who served nine months as a bomb thrower in the trenches of France and Belgium and who will be heard at Donofrio's audi torium, Saturday and Sunday, May 4 and in his gripping warlogue, Lights and Shadows of No Mans Land" il- lustrated by At the Front with the Allies" a film of men and moments over there.
 Mud in the trenches? Yes, tons of it. Surely, your boy will have to sleep standing up in it. but by the time this beneficient and all wise government gets through training him, little thing like a mud bed will not bother him in the slightest. When he comes back to you he'll feel discontented and lonely for the mud couch he loved so well at the front.
 Aside from the serious side of the war, we find our humors in the trench es. Our pleasantest moments come when the mails arrive. Write often to your Sammy. Write every day if you have time, for you never can realize the treasure letter is. Do not forget the lad who is over there fighting that the women of this land may never undergo the horrors I witnessed in Belgium.

C|TY THANKED
 FUR ART HELP

Through an appropriation of sl00 recently made by the city commission, sufficient funds have been made avail able to the art exhibition committee of the Arizona State Fair to purchase another picture to hang in the Free Public library, forming with others al ready secured for that purpose, nucleus of a municipal art collection. The picture which was purchased for $500 will shortly be hung in the library and the name plate affixed.
 Appreciative of the support given the movement by the city commission, Mrs. Maie Bartlett Heard, chairman of the art exhibition committee, has addressed a letter to City Manager V. A. Thompson. This letter which was read before the city commission yes terday morning is as follows: Hon. V. A. Thompson,
 City Manager,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My Dear Sir:
 Permit me to extend through you to the Commission of the City of Phoenix the thanks and appreciation of the art exhibition committee of the Arizona State Fair, for the generous appropria tion toward the purchase of the 1917 picture for the municipal collection. The price of the picture, $500, was made up of the $100 just received from the city s1O0 donated for this purpose by Frederic Clay Bartlett of Chicago, money received from the school chill dren and others interested in giving to Phoenix the nucleus of an art collection of which we may be proud in the years to come.
 The name plate has at last come for this last picture and it will shortly be hung in the Public Library building.
 With renewed thanks for this inter- est of the city commission in our work 1 remain,
 Yours very truly. MAZE BARTLETT HEARD,
 Chairman.

ANOTHER SOCIETY
 IF THRIFT FORMED

F'raternal Brotherhood, Maricopa No. 43. held it's regular meeting Wednes day night in K. of P. hall. The meeting was called to order promptly at 8 o'clock with an unusually large at tendance present. Matters of great importance were brought before the meeting, one of which was the pur- chase of Liberty bonds. A Thrift so- ciety also was organized, the members pledging themselves to buy Thrift stamps each week.
 Several new candidates were ini- tiated. After the business of the even ing was disposed of. the program com- mittee presented a most interesting program. Several members have do- mated music rolls, and the brotherhood now has a most excellent collection of dance music. Everyone danced until a late hour.

 amounted to over $53. .000, ,009, Mexican

Remarkable Theme has Loaded Dicev

Unusual man is he who in shaping his life adheres unswervingly to the fifty fifty chance that there is no God, to whom everything on earth is a gamble and life, death and immortality the biggest gambles of all, who in his game with, destiny, stakes everything on the theory that God is a supersti- tion.
 Such man is Richard Gordon, a promoter with nothing to promote ex- cept his own interest, while the front he presents to the world is veneered with a mask of goodness, underneath is the cheat, for this man plays with loaded dice because he says to win he must do so.
 There is but one thing that makes him sometimes-and only sometimes doubt his life's philosophy and that is Rose Ashton, but the rest is told in a thrilling and gripping story of the film that holds ones attention throughout and will be shown today and tomorrow at the Columbia.
