The novelty OF burlesque appeals
most naturally to Miss Elsie Cole. So
sprano. who is giving such delightful
entertainment with her songs, Loves
Lullaby" Honolulu and Smiles,
at the Gayety this week.
Miss Cole is a member of the Hall
family" and in a direct line of de-
scendants of the Puritan Fathers" ."
Her great-grandfather fought in the
Revolutionary War under Gen. Wash
ington and her grandfather fought in
the Mexican War and was a captain
in the civil war. Her father fought
in the civil war and her brother was
in the Spanish War. Her only living
relative availasfe for service in the
world war is a nephew, who is a
pharmacist aboard the L. S. S. Char
lesion.
And so, being a real American, Miss
Cole was sadly disappointed when she
was not accepted as an ambulance
driver for service in France, a posi-
ton she sought most earnestly.
Again, being purely American. this
attractive miss from out of the West
entered this, her first season of bur-
lesque, enthused with it's opportuni-
ties for jovial entertainment. Her
singing is a real feature of the Gay
ETY. show.

WILSON MIGHT
VISIT EUROPE
Would Attend Peace Con-
ference If 1t Met Wish
Of People.

With countless kilograms from his
fellow countrymen urging him to
finish up the big job" by heading
Americas delegation to the peace
conference, and also invitations from
all the allied governments to take a
personal part in the parleys.- Presi-
dent Wilson last night was still con-
sidering this new phase of the inter-
national situation and has not yet
made a decision.
At the White House yesterday
afternoon it was said his mind was
open" on the subject. His final deci-
sion. 1t was intimated, will depend
entirely on the sentiment of the
country at large. II he is given
reason to believe the great bulk of
American citizens wish him to go
abroad he will go. If, on the con-
trary, he thinks the people believe
it best for him to remain in this
country he will remain here. -
Would Like to Go.
1t has been reported, however. that
IL the Presidents personal wishes
were given consideration he would
60 Being the author of the four
teen principles of peace which. with
one exception, have been subscribed
to by the allied nations. it is natural
that he would like to guide them in
person at the conference of which
they will be the basis.
The President, it is said would
also like to explain in person his
views on the mooted subject con-
cerning the freedom of the seas.
This apparently is the only one of
the fourteen principles on which the
allies do not agree with him.
No other President of the United
States has gone abroad while hold
ing the office, and some question has
arisen as to the legality of the pro-
cedure should the President decide
to go. The fact that there is no
precedent for the action is perhaps
the reason for all questions pertain
ing to the legality of the matter.
Legality in Doubt.
Legal authorities said yesterday
that while the Constitution does not
in terms prevent the President from
Having the Jurisdiction of the Unit
ed States. it also does not precisely
indicate that he might. In addition,
they say, the Capital of the nation
is fixed at Washington. and the
President must perform his official
duties here. These pros" and
cons" however. would give way, it
is expected. to public opinion should
it indicate overwhelmingly the de-
sirefor the President to go.
The President, it was said at the
White House yesterday, has been to
Europe before. He made his visit,
however. when he was a college pro-
fessor. This time. should he make
a visit. he would be the recognized
outstanding figure in the worlds af-
fairs.

FAIR PRICE OF
EGGS UP 7CTS.
80 to 50 Cents Fixed for
Dozen Fresh Selects
by Food Office.

An advance of cents in the price
of eggs is announced for the ensuing
week over last weeks price by the
local Food Administration. In the
fair price list issued for this week
the price of fresh select eggs is
quoted at from 80 to SO cents per
dozen. while last week they ranged
from 73 to rs cents.
For several weeks the price of
eggs has been on the upward trend,
but the jump announced yesterday Is
the greatest that has been made.
Various reasons are given for this
advance, the principal one being the
approach of the winter season with
a consequent scarcity of eggs. The
again urges the con-
sumption of cold-storage eggs. The
price of these is much lower than
the price of fresh eggs. Even cold
storage eggs, however. jumped 2
cents, making the price 81 to Sc
cents per dozen. Current receipt
eggs also jumped. this weeks price
being II to rs cents per dozen.
Butter Up Two Cents.
Butter also advanced in price I,

Cold-storage butter showed an in
crease of L cent per pound, being
quoted at SO cents. Process butter.
quoted at 5S cents per pound. shows
an increase of cents over last
weeks price. Increases in the but
ter price have also been general for
the last few weeks. The great de-
mand to supply the men overseas is
given as the explanation for this in
crease.
Oleomargarine and nut oleomarga-
rine both show an increase of cent
a pound. being quoted at 40 and 81
cents per pound. respectively. Lard,
compound. jumped to 81 cents, an in

reals and fiours are noted on the list

WAR WORK BUILDING
 STRUCTURALLY SAFE

Herbert J. Mann. city inspector of buildings, in a letter to Dwight B. Heard, chairman of the Arizona coun- cil of defense. concerning the Cen tral school building. says that he building is structurally safe and that the exits sufficient for the number of people that will be housed therein In the future the old school build ing will be known as the War Work building and will house, beside the council of defense, the Red Cross and other organizations doing war work in Phoenix. MT. Mann's letter fol- lows:
 Mir. Dwight B. Heard, chairman, the
 Arizona Council of Defense, Phoe-
 nix, Arizona.
 My Dear Mir. Heard:
 I hereby authorize the use of the old Central school building by the Arizona. council of defense and simi- lar organizations engaged in war work.
 The principal reason that I re- quested the school board to discen- tinue the use of this building for school purposes was on account of the exits which were inadequate for tue Ol CHllulcu in the building.
 I am satisfied, however, that the building is structurally safe, and the exits sufficient for the number of persons engaged in the organizations which will be housed therein. I wish to respectfully suggest that as soon as the building has been thoroughly cleaned, some one person | he appOinted whom the city can hold responsible for the continued tidiness of the premises. Waste paper, rags and similar rubbish should not be allowed to accumulate in closets and corners nor under starways. Oily rags, cleaning compounds, etc., should be kept in metal receptacles. | When these precautions are taken to guard against fires. you need feel no uneasiness regarding your occu- pancy of this building. Very truly yours,
 HERBERT J. MANN, 1 City Inspector of Buildings

PRESIDENT APPEALS
 FUR ALIEN FRIENDS

According to advices received by the State Council of Defense, the Fourth of July this year is to be given interna- tional significance, as a day that may mark the dawn of greater freedom for all the people of the earth. Pres;- dent Wilson has authorized publication of correspondence of remarkable sort, in which representatives of races world wide scattered have reported to him their intention on July 4, "to man. fest by special celebrations, our loy- alty to this country and to the cause for which we fight" It is told that some of the nations and peoples we represent. happil. enjoying a political entity, are fighting openly and with arms against the enemies of progress Others, unhappily submerged can give but passive opposition. Others have been forced against their will into the armies of the common enemy. Finally. a few still remain outside, hard pressed, threatened by the mailed fist, threading alike to be drawn in and to be found apart from the rest when the hour of settlement comes But all, through in- finite suffering. struggle. blindly or open eyed, toward the same epd-the right of peoples to govern themselves as they themselves see fit, and just and lasting peace.

CAPTAIN CHRISTY
 TELLS OF NATION
 NOW AT WAR SPEED

The transformation of the United States from an inefficient, purely peaceful nation to a great. rapid-fire, efficient war machine was described by Capt. George Christy before the members of the Rotary club at their regular luncheon yesterday.
 Necessarily off to a slow start, ana with many vexatious delays of the carly periods of the war, nevertheless the picture of Washington, at present working at high speed, effective and telling. is revelation, he declared.
 And the greatest thing of it all. the speaker declared, is the spirit of ev- cryone. not only at the nations capi- tai. but in the whole east. eliminating red tape, putting politics in the back ground. stopping all waste, making every minute and every move count for something. That was the dominating fact he noticed during his recent visit tO the east.
 The nation, as represented in Wash ington. is forgetting everything except what has to do with winning the war. Mir. Christy declared. The population of Washington has doubled. So mas sve is this great war machine that there arc 100000 stcnographers to care for it's business and the business of the government. Hundreds of new build- ings have been erected there in the past two years and hundreds of resi- dences in an attempt to care for this great increase in population.
 Everywhere MT. Christy went he saw long trains of soldiers or sailors on the move for "somewhere." There was no testing. All was solemn, all was reverence and determination for the serious business at hand, he de- Clared
 Following the address of Mir. Christy. Charles Heath spoke on the subjee, of the Thrift stamp drive and of the necessity for every ROtarian to devote his full energies to it until June 2S.
 Rotarian Hulett issued an invitation to the club, which was accepted, to spend next Friday evening at Celery Wig park east of the city. adjoining the home of M. J. Morley. The Rotarians will gather at Celery-Vig corner al 1;SO o'clock on that evening and will go out to the park en masse, Chairman Will Hornberger announced.
