DEAD BABE LETT
 NEAR ROADSIDE

Dancing into the school room with their gift from God" two little school girls paused to show J. A. Higgins. the principal of the Pendergast school the doll they had found on their way.
 The life sized doll with its big blue eyes was wrapped in tissue paper they said when they found it in the ditch.
 Isn't she a perfect beauty" they ex- claimed as they disputed over what name should be given the new dolly and who should be its mother.
 Mir. Higgins did not pause tS hear the kiddies discuss the treasure but hurried to the telephone to notify the county authorities that a little dead baby had been found.
 Coroner Wheeler visited the scene where the child that had not been wanted had been abandoned. There were no marks on the tiny body of the perfectly formed child nor were there any clues to indicate the parentage of the little one

MAY F WILL bE
 DAY OF MOTHERS

Sunday, May 12, has been designated as Mothers day.
 Governor Hunt in his proclamation which has just been received at the local chamber of commerce. says:
 "The soldier goes to his duty tuned to the excitement of the hour and the companionship of his fellow soldiers; the wage earner goes to his work with the firm determination to do his ut most, but the mother must stay at home-with her many duties to be sure but always with the solitary thought that the lives which she has brought into the world are somewhere on the battlefield. Hers is the real-the greatest sacrifice. All that can sus- tain her is the belief, the surety, that the sacrifice she makes will insure for the mothers of tomorrow a world made free for the bearing of their children. Therefore with prayer in our hearts and a smile of comfort on our lips, I ask the people of Arizona to dedicate the 12th of May to the mothers. May God bless them and keep them"

 In Fair and Warmer" Avery Hop wood uses just the idea he knows best how to put through it's paces-a satirio and richly humorous complication aris- ing from the fact that two most re- spectable young persons try to be wicked without knowing how, and end by covering themselves with ignominy, While the pair at whom they aimed their wickedness, as retaliation, went l joyously scot free.

ChiIdren's Day at Columbia

Today is children's day at the Co., lumbia and the usual children's pro gram has been arranged. Three big features have been booked for the oc- casion and should prove a very pleas ing program. Douglas Falrbanks Tn His Picture in the Papers" little Mary McAllister in The Yellow Umbrella
 and Charlie Chaplin in The Tramp are the pictures that will be shown.
 In the Triangle play, His Picture in the Papers," it looked easy for Pete Prindle Douglas Fairbanks) to get his portrait displayed on the front pages of all the New York papers-yes, 1t looked almost too easy. Here's what the hero actually did before he put through the proposition, gained a half interest in his fathers firm and was awarded the hand of the girl he loved: Wrecked an auto and went to the hospital, was thrown off a train, put on a champion middleweight and fought losing fight with two husky policemen. At last he won by fighting off band of yeggmen and saving a train from being wrecked

 STOCK ARE HELD
 AS RESPONSIBLE
Hard Fought Case Is Ter minated in Favor of Trus-
 tee for Bankrupt Phoenix Hardware; Many Affected

After a bitter struggle of two and half years standing, the United States circuit court of appeals has rendered a final decision in the fa- nous Phoenix Hardware company case.
 This case which is the first of it's kind ever tried from this state, ere ated much comment when first be- gun, and the decision is of intense interest generally to all attorneys of the southwest.
 1t will be remembered that at the time of bankruptcy, this concern had number of stockholders who as yet had not paid the full amount on the par value of the holdings. Accord ingly action to compel these holders to pay relative amounts on unpaid subscriptions to liquidate outstanding debts was instituted, and naturally this proposal was fought tooth and nail by the debtors.
 The case. known as Charles B. Christy, trustee Phoenix Hardware company, bankrupt, vs. Long and others" was first brought before the referee on bankruptcy here, who rendered a decision in favor of the creditors. An appeal> was later taken to United States District Judge Saw telle where after much controversy, the decision of the referee was af- firmed. As a last resort, the matter was referred to United States district court of appeals in San Francisco, who on March affirmed the de- cision rendered by Judge Sawtelle. to the effect that regular stock | holders must pay up a sufficient amount to liquidate present debts. | In order to enforce the decree, | John c. Forrest, who has acted as l attorney for the creditors since the beginning of the suit, stated yester- | day that he is consummating ar
 engagements to bring suit in local | courts

 "The fare has been very good all though it is hard to get accustomed to meat as one course, vegetables served separately as another, and so on. Think we have had fifty seven varieties of cheese, and omelettes of almost as many kinds. No pastry, but l do not think that has been to economize, for white bread has been plentiful and eX- cellent Altogether we cannot com plain.

Poker Winners To Pay Tax. But Who Ever Won aft Poker

Here is consolation for poker losers.
 Winners at poker must pay in in- come tax on their winnings. Losers at poker, well, they are just losers.
 This interesting bit of news that hits poker profiteers comes from the internal revenue bureau which has just made an informal ruling that earnings from the game were sub ject to the income tax, but that losses could not be deducted from the income in figuring the tax.
 Thus there is a tax for the Win ner and no relief for the loser. The ruling was given in answer to the following letter of inquiry:
 kindly tell me whether poker losses are deductible from net in come in figuring income taxes. l lost large sums at poker in the past year, and the question with me is vital. For the information of a friend who has had good poker profits, please tell me whether these are to be included in income"

Strono Bill at Hip Today

No picture to play the Hip this win ter has attracted more attention from real lovers of the big outdoor creations than The Shooting of Dan McGrew," which finishes it's stay at the Washing ton street house this date. Those who saw it before came. again and those who did not marveled that they do not make pictures now-a- days like this great drama of the frozen country where men fought for gold and women grew hard as iron. It's so big in theme and treatment it baffles description. To enjoy this picture one must read the poem which inspired it and then watch the story word for word in subtitles unfold with every detail correct.
 Billy West is also with the Hip pro- gram offering today in The Flycop' his newest comedy and it is some comedy.
 Tomorrow the much discussed and expected Rallies with John Barry more, athlete and movie star, in the part of the cracksman, is to start a three days engagement From the crit ics who have reviewed this picture it must be a wonder. It has drawn more attention than anything now on the market.
