Having appeared upon the chautau-
qua platform last. summer with his
lecture-recital on Julius 'Caeasar,"
by William Shakespeare, the noted
English dramatist, Rev. Charles
West. son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. III. West
of West Gambler street, and IA grad
uate of Ohio Wesleyan university, re.
produced this historical tragedy at
the NJ. p. church Friday evening in a
manner that becomes an artist.
In his lecture, Rev. West said that
there were two authors OF the Eng
lish tongue who could not be classi-
fled by the other great men OF the
English race, Abraham Lincoln and
William Shakespeare. Both were
simple men, alike In many respects.
but standing out above all others.
The first act opens with conditions
in Rome as Caesar comes home with
his victorious armies. Two brothers,
Marcus Brutus, a noble hearted RO.
man and good friend of Caesars, and
the cunning Gaius Cassius, who per.
suades his brother to oust Caesar and
lead the leople himself.
The other main character beside
Caesar himself. is Mark Antony, an
other friend of Caesar, while some
of the others, who appear later, are
Casca. Lucius, CHINA, Climber, Cato,
Portia, the wife of Brutus, and Ca
pernia, the wife of Caesar.
The second act is the story of the
development of the plot of the con-
spirators against the power of Caes-
ar, while the third act contains the
scene OF the assassination of the
hero, while seated on his throne In
the senate chamber. also the speech
of Mark Antony. which begins with
those wellknOwn words: Friends,
Romans, countrymen," over the dead
body of Caesar in the market place
which brings the multitude back tG
the realization that Caesar and not
Brutus, is their friend, causing the
conspirators to flee from Rome.
In the fourth and last act, the third
triumviratc, composed of Mark An
tony, Octavius and Lepidus, is form
ed. which rules Rome and marches
an army against the conspirators, led
by Brutus and Cassius. The trag
edy ends with the defeat of the army
of the conspirators at Philippi, by the
regular Roman army under Mark An
tony, and the two brothers, Cassius
and Brutus, committing suicide by

Editorial



William A. Marshall of the Oregon State Industrial
Accident Commission has reputation for being special
list such legislation.
He has given the Arizona law, to be submitted to
vote of the people in November, careful examination
His Judgment is expressed in the following summary
which shows this law is splendid start in the right
direction:
''The law provides liberal scale of compensation
for injured workmen and for the prompt payment Of
pensaton at frequent intervals while at the same time
affording the employer entire relief from litigation by
making compensation under the law the exclusive remedy
Of the injured workmen.
Although purely an elective law, requiring affirma
tive action by the employer to under it's protection
doubtless the effect Of the sections prvng employer
of his commonlaw defenses will bring employers under
the law in such number to eliminate any question to
the insurance fund having sufficient volume of business
'The provisions establishing fund from which com
pensaon payments to be made constitute desirable
feature, and confident will result in such economic
saving will make possible the payment Of reasonably
liberal compensation to injured wormen without making
the cost unnecessary handicap to the industrial actv
ties of the state.
'The solvency Of the fund is assured through ade-
quae provision to for the catastrophe hazard and
also authority for the revision of rates when experience
indicates the need.''

LIMITS SUGAR USE
FOR CANNING FRUIT
MINIMUM SWEETNESS Is URGED
BY EXPERT WITH FOOD
ADMINISTRATION.
COUNSEL FOR HOUSEWIVES
STERILIZATION IMPORTANT TO
SUCCESS OF IMPROVED
METHODS GIVEN.

Greater economy in the use of sugar
for canning fruits is urged by the fed
eral food administration for Arizona
The following suggestions are given
by Mrs. Mary Pritner Lockwood, home
economics director:
Make Required
80 pounds apples. 30 qts. 5.62 lbs.
so pounds peaches. .18 qts. As lbs.
SO pounds pears ...30 qts. 5. lbs.
55 pounds plums ...30 OTIS. 9.3S lbs.
To each quart of products use six
to eight level tablespoonsful of sugar;
sour fruit, such as plums, 10 spoons.
Thirty-two level tablespoonsful OF
sugar equal one pound; two cups of
sugar equal one pound
In making jams use about one-half
pound of sugar to one pound Of pro-
duct For jellies from one-half to
three quarters of cup of sugar will
be required to one cup of juice. The
same proportion obtains for marina
ladies' and preserves.
Our present shortage of sugar
need not interfere with the fruit
saving campaign. Many Ari-
zona housewives are following
the directions of the Department
of Agriculture in canning fruits with
out sugar.
Have jars, jar covers and rubbers
tested and sterilized.
If the cold pack method is followed
proceed as when sugar is used. When
the fruit is packed in the jar fill the
jar with boiling hot water Continue
the processing as when sugar is used.
If the open kettle method is fol
lowed place the fruit in preserving
kettle with enough water to prevent
scorching. Simmer gently until the
fruit is tender. Fill jars and seal.
Fruit canned without sugar is ex-
cellent for pie filings, puddings, ices,
sauces, salads and fruit punches.
In canning fruit juices without su-
gar the following method should be
employed:
Amy approved fruit jar or empty bot
they are thoroughly cleaned and ster-
ilized before filling. Proceed as in the
cold pack method for preserving
fruits.
Or the juice may be heated TO the
boiling point IN open kettle and the
containers filled and sealed immedi
ately.
