MANY ENJOY TACKEY PARTY
 AT HOME OF MRS M. MILLER

Mrs. M. Miller entertained most de lightfully at her home on the East Side last Saturday evening, when many of the young ladies and gentle men gathered at this hospitab1e home ing hostess to enjoy her hospitality for the evening.
 The feature on this occasion was a tackey party, and the guests were all accordingly costumed, and many there were who displayed considera- ble ingenuity in rigging their per sons in costumes which would have been the mode in the Ozarks of Arkansas, or the pney woods of Ala bama.
 Space is insufficient to give men tion of each individual costume, but those of Misses Constance Franz and Edna Thudiman, and the make up of Dan Romero, are worthy of es- pecial notice.
 Even his closest friends failed to recognize MT Romero when he was in troduced to the guests as Miss Bis hop, belle from Ell Paso. As a fe- male personator he had Julian FL tinge backed clear off the map, and his make up would have caused Sis Hopkins to have turned green with en ".
 In keeping with the spirit of the en- tertainment Mrs. Miller served her guests with water melons, which was most pleasing and greatly njoyed.
 Those who were guests of this de- lightful hostess on this occasion were Misses Foote, Garrette, Franz, Thudi- man, Davis, Frances Davis, Miller, Harrison, Beck, Rita Risdon, M. Ris- don, and MT. and Mrs. Sauer; Messrs. Rabenowitz, Jonz, Miller, Franz, Ro- nero, Potter and Upham.

HUMILIATION
 PRAYER AND FASTING DAY.

It is not a significant fact that the great Allied drive and German de- feat took place only about two mon ths after the Day of National Hu- initiation, Prayer and Fasting" called by our President to be held on May Both? Truly, it seems as though the words of Admiral Dewey, when, af- ter the battle of Manila Bay, he said to his assembled ship commanders aboard his flagship, Gentlemen, a higher power than we has won this battle today is true of the present great battle. Our Invisible Allies will be the sermon theme for Sunday morning at II at the Baptist church.
 '1s Christianity a Failure" is the question that has been asked hun dreds of times since the war broke out. ''The Gospel-Something to he Proud of." is the theme for Sun dsv night at S:15.

GASSED STORY UNFoUNDED;
 TOM E. sIDEBoTHAM o. K.

A report has been circulated in Cliff ton for the past week that Thos E. Sidebotham, one of the select men from Clifton, was gassed on the French front, and was blind from the effects of this gas.
 A Copper Era representative looked up Toms uncle, Thos. Sidebotham, s., who stated that the report was absolutely without foundation. He said: ITO the best of my informa> tion this report gained circulation by statement which is alleged to have been made by the Spaniard who re- gently returned from the fighting front. He lives at Metcalf, and I went there to see him, to ascertain if this report could be verified. He is said to have stated that he saw my Tom in a hospital in France be- fore leaving for home, suffering from the effects of gass. While in Metcalf I was unable to see this Spaniard, but I left word for him to visit me at Clifton at my expense, as I wanted to talk with him about the mater.
 'T am positive that this report can not be true for the reason that have heard nothing from the authori- ties regarding him, and feel sure I would have been notified had either of the boys been injured. All the authorities have my address as his next kin, both the civil and military, as well as the auviliary organiza, tions, the Red Cross and Army Y. M. c. A., the later notified me of his sailing when he went to France.
 '-Besidc- thls I recently r-ce ved a letter from both of the boys, who are in Europe. Tom is on the Sanitary train 1O7 Third division, while Roy E is a member of Co. A., 314th Engi- neers.
 By a singular coincidence both of their letters were written on July Is, yet they were separated, and neither knew the others address. In the let ters both stated that they were well and enjoying army life as much as it was possible. Both speak in the loud est praises of. the Red Cross and Y. M. c. A., which organizations, ac' cording to their letters, are doing wonders to make matters pleasant for the soldiers, and express the hope that the people back home will do their utmost in sustaining these or organizations, which are taking the place of the home. for the soldier boys in France"

FAMINE IN SUGAR
 MAY BE INVERTED
STRICT ECONOMY ON PART OF IONA HOUSEWIVES
 MOST NECESSARY.
CANNING-SUCAR IS LOW
ISSUED ONLY ON PERMITS OF FOOD ADMINISTRATORS
 AND DEPUTIES

Despite the fact that effective Au- gust l the sugar ration was cut from three to two pounds per person per month, there are barely sufficient sup plies of sugar in Arizona to meet the ordinary household uses, 1t is an- nounced by the federal food adminis- trator for Arizona.
 Nothing short of the most rigid economy will prevent an exhaustion of the supply before September l, and to meet the situation householders ob- taining supplies of sugar for home canning purposes are urged to limit their supplies for this purpose, re- membering that most fruits can be canned without the use of sugar.
 Housewives are warned that it Is unpatriotic, as well as violation of the law punishable by fine and inn prisonment to have on hand a supply of sugar in excess of two pounds for each member of the household.
 This two-pound allowance does not include sugar for home canning pur- poses, but no sugar may be sold for this purpose except on presentation to the dealer of permit issued by the county food administrator or his duly authorized deputy.
 All sugar for canning will be care. fully checked and if it is found that any individual has purchased what ap- pears to be an excessive supply he will be called upon to show the goods canned.

HOW TO GAN FRUIT
 WITHOUT ANY SUGAR
NEW PROCESS DESCRIBED FOR BENEFIT THIS PAPERS
 WOMEN READERS.

The federal food administration for Arizona gives the following as satis- factory method for canning fruit with out sugar. For this process the food administration is indebted to the di- vision of viticulture of the University of California.
 The sugar used in canning or bot ting fruit is for the purpose of i'm proving the flavor and is not necessary for preservation.
 Fruit of any kind suitable for can ming may be preserved without any sugar. When the fruit is consumed. the sugar can be added exactly as is done with fresh fruit. If the fruit when canned is thoroughly ripe 1t may be consumed without this addition of sugar and is sweet enough for many tastes.
 The ordinary methods of home can ming are used. These are the "cold pack" and "hot pack" methods.
 For the former the fruit is washed, peeled, pitted or cored as needed and packed tight in clean, scalded cans or jars. Water is then added, boiling in the case of cans, and as hot as pos sible without cracking the glass in the case of jars. Scalded caps or covers and rubbers are then put in place loosely and the filled cans heated in a vessel of boiling water for twenty to forty minutes. An ordinary wash boiler furnished with wire screen, or a wooden grating on which to place the jars is suitable for this purpose. The boiler should contain enough. wa ter to rise about halfway up the sides of the jars.
 While still at the boiling tempera- ture the jars or cans are removed. sealed and placed to cool, lying hori- zontally or upside down.
 For the "hot pack" method the pre- pared fruit is placed in a large pot on the stove with little water to pre- vent burning. After heating to the boiling point and cooking until the fruit is tender and some of the juice has exuded, it Is poured into the cans or heated jars by means of a perfor- ated or wire ladle and wide funnel. Sufficient juice from the pot Is then added just to cover the fruit and the cans or jars sealed. These are then heated in the boiler for about twenty minutes. For a second batch of tho same fruit the juice remaining in the pot should be used instead of water for the preliminary cooking.

r very Day Is
- Circus Day

Fer that is just what it is now in the
camp towns. Military bands, scores of
them! Parades, daily and sometimes twice
and thrice daily! All the more exciting,
because unannounced! Horses, wagons,
cannon, machine guns, armored automobiles
flying flags, pitched tents, rows after rows
of barracks, and, all manned by men in
uniform.
Is it any wonder that a town (whose
thoroughfares are always crowded by the
visit of circusl, suddenly becomes the
Mecca for thousands upon thousands Of
visitors, when train after train ushers
in fresh troops to encamp for training in
the National Army, each with its separate
bands and each with its separate sets of
equipment? That John Doe, the circus Wis
itor, brings a different self--a Sightseeing
business, patriotic, or perchance son-ad-
miring SELF to the camp, does not mat
ter. The point is, John comes. He is con-
fronted by an entirely new situation in
his own and in the communitys life. To
him the routine surrounding the camp is
complex, as it is to many a civilian and
soldier living in the community and in the
camp. He is at sea until he consults some
one who knows

marine or civilian, who presents himself or
herself at the desk. From early morning
until late night these versatile community
intelligence dispensers consult. inform and
