changed her mind. A sister of Hazel

abroad when very young. In London
she studied singing with Nellie Rowe
From there she went to Paris, where
she was engaged at the Opera Comique

parts she sang the title role in Char

b|C AUDIENCE AT
 STRAND OPENING

Before the opening of the Strand last night, the handsome foyer of the new moving picture palace was thronged beyond standing room and the crowd surged along the sidewalk for a stretch far beyond the front of the building. 1t was partly attracted by a wish 10 see the glories of the place and partly by the fact that the picturiation of Agustus Thomas great play, Arizona was 10 be presented with Douglas Fairbanks as the leading character.
 This picture was made in Arizona and it offered a presentation that only those who have seen it in the stage had never witnessed. It was a fitting opener for the new playhouse. Every seat in the large auditorium was oc- cupied before seven o'clock and scores waited for the second play. By 9:30 crowd as large as the original one had gathered. If there had been third show, no doubt the house would have been thronged again.
 Beside Arizona there were offered Pathe pictures of events attending the great allied offense and the collapse of the military power of Germany and a roaring comedy, The Son of Hun
 The lighting and the heating of the house were perfect. There was not that groping darkness but diffused light that gave a view of the audience and at the same time did not detract from the pictures

MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
 IF RED CROSS EVDs
 WITH H|CH RECORD

Exact figures for the Christmas roll call of the Red Cross are not vet ob- talnahle but it is certain that over l2,00O people enrolled in the Central Arizona chapter during the roll call period, which with the 1000 hOld-over members, gives the chapter a total membership on January 1 of over 16.- OoO. This is against a membership on september l, 1918, of 6,300. Had the figures been 25,000 instead of 1600O re- suits would have been entirely satis- factory but even as it is the chapter has made very remarkable showing.
 Hayden seems to have done as well as any community in proportion to population, having enrolled up to noon of yesterday 1875 out of population of only about 4,000 Ray. ,however may eclipse that figure and, if so. will have made the banner record for the disstrict.
 Tempe had the best day of the roll call yesterday and in Phoenix the work of street membership soliciting was very successful, far more so than on most of the previous days of the roll call period
 All figures will be checked up this morning as far as reports from the various brahches and auxiliarries are received but it will take d day or so to find out exactly how many have taken membership since the roll call campaign started

TWO HOUSES ENTERED
 THIEVES GET NOTHING

Two attempted robberies were frustrated last evening through the prompt action of the local police force In neither case was the intruder cap tured, and nothing was taken from either of the houses entered.
 Both attempts took place on Central avenue. The first burglary occurred a little after 2 o'clock at S26 North Central avenue. The thief entered through the front door. which had been left unlocked, and ransacked the lower floor finding nothing of value He then mounted to the second floor, but took fright and fled just few moments before the police, who had been noti- fled, arrived.
 The second housebrealling occurred at 1929 Central avenue at about 10 o'clock. The burglar boldly shattered window pane to secure. entrance. The noise awakened the people in the house, who promptly telephoned the police The roar of the engine of the car bearing the officers racing to the spot is believed to have given watn- ing to the nocturnal visitor, who es- capped through a rear entrance, leaving a bar of iron he had used to smash the window.
 A large number of calls have been answered by the police in the past few days from residents who have left their homes open for any prowling marauder. to enter Chief of Police Brisbois has issued warning to householders asking them to cooperate with the authorities by locking the doors at night before retiring,

CAPACITY AUDIENCE HIGHLY ENTERTAINED
 AT VICTORY CONCERT.

A capacity audince at the Elks the ater last night greeted the Community Chorus in it's Victory concert, pre- sented to swell the sale of Thrift stamps Besides assisting in patri- otic venture the people were treated to one of the most delightful musical events of many months in. Phoenix.
 The program went through without a hitch. every number being well sung. There were many features of an anna teur production worthy of note. Among them were the fact that it began on time and ended d few minutes after 10 o'clock. Almost every number was encored. The choruses were sung with good clean attack and with great spirit.
 Mrs r. K. Lewis as the Goddess of Liberty was one of the features of the evening. The audience showed appre- citation. especially of the classical numbers. including the duet from Fl Trovatore" by Mrs. Pettingail and MT. Sargent and the Madame Butterfly solo by Miss Clara Hazard.
 All the soloists for the national songs of the allied nations drew tre- mendous applause The best chorus SlIiSlliS NdS tNiNtut III tue ulIdGtOIH- panied Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes It would be unwise to say which soloist was the biggest hit. However, the outstanding features were the Madame Butterfly solo, the duet from Fl Trovatore," the "Marseil- laise." old Black Joe They Were All Out of Step But Jim "A Wonder full Thing sweet Little Buttercup" and Keep Your Head Down. Fritzie Boy"
 Mrs. c. B. Wells seemed to get close to the audience in her solo, "A Won derful Thing" in the second scene. Mrs. Wells is a newcomer to Phoenix and she was welcomed last night with open arms. Miss Gene McDonald danced the Highland Fling" with true Scottish spirit and received a voeifer- ous encore.
 A review of the program would not be complete without mentioning the orchestra headed by Mrs. Ida K. Mer- vine on the piano. Her song, Uncle Sam and His Battering Ram" was en- Enthusiastically received. Mrs. Huett, Mrs. Leecraft, Miss Hazard, Mrs. Pet tingal MT. Sargent. Mr. Tilden. Mrs Candy Mir Horrall. Mir. Heath and MT Johnson the latter substituting for J. C. Raymond, all soloists of the even ing. are pupils of William Conrad Mills
 Seldom has more appreciative audience listened to home talent program Every soloist and every member of the orchestra contributed their services free of charge. The theater was donated by the Elks. The BarrOWs Furniture company kindly donated the stage settings. Credit is due Dr. George F. Blair, who had charge of the second scene, for his ef- forts toward making the stage set tinss what they should be. William Conrad Mills was the mu- sical director of the program, and to his efforts is largely due the success of the entertainment. It was the first program he has directed in two years. P. A. Venne assisted MT Mills in recruiting the orchestra, which aided largely in the concert.
 It was not known last night what the total sales of Thrift Stamps amounted to because of the Victory concert but it undoubtedly is considerable, as l the theater was packed.

President Favors Raising Draft Ago

Washington, June 14.-President
Wilson's Endorsement of Maryland's
work or fight" law for males be-
tween the ages of Is and 50 was re-
garded today as auguring the attitude
OF the administration on draft legis-
lation expected in the next Congress.
While Secretary of War Baker has
officially stated he is not now con-
templatlng recommendations for in
creasing draft-age limits expected by
Congressional leaders at the next
session, President Wilson, in a letter
to Gov. Harrington of Maryland ex-
presses the hope that all States adopt
Legislation which will force men be-
tween the ages of Is and so to en-
gage in useful pursuits-or fight.
Universal application of such a
program, however, can only come
through national legislation, it is con-
tended here by members of Congress.
The great drain on the country's man
power, it is declared, will soon neces-
state additional draft legislation
raising the present age limits of those
subject to call.
Representative Kahn of the House
Military Committee today reiterated
his belief that the draft law should
be modified to include men between
the ages of FL and IS years.
