FIVE MILLION INSIGNIFICANT
Scientific American.)

One year the strength of the American army was 212034: today it is 1625.725. Our population is conceded to be hundred millions. for purposes of discussion So in spite of the heavy increase which we have scored for armies, we have put 16 per cent of numbers in uniform.
 Yet we talk of supreme efforts in terms of gigantic army of five million men," May not pause realize that before shall have equaed the performance of the thirteen original colonies shall increased this figure by half that before shall have put ourselves part with the beaten Confederacy shall have doubled it? May not give thought to the fact that in order to put forth an effort duplicating that of the north we must raise an army of thirteen and one-half million men
 It is absurd to look with complaisance upon the insignificant military aid which the average Ameri can has in his mind when he contemplates share in the great war. There plenty of people
 living who fought in the Civil War. plenty more who lived through it. If would but remind our selves that before shall have equaled the achieve ment of their generation we must still put eleven and a half million troops in the field, perhaps we should look with less complaisance upon what we have done and with less misgivings upon the rais- ing of the next million, the millions after that.

LIVESTOCK FREIGHT
 WORK |S CAUGHT UP

The railroads have at last about caught up with livestock cars for ship ments out of the Salt River valley, of ficials announced yesterday. The Santa Fe has just caught up on box cars and the Arizona Eastern reports it will be caught up soon.
 The Arizona Eastern for a long time was short about 150 livestock cars while the Santa Fe was short between 40 and 50 livestock cars.
 The movement of livestock out of the state has been heavy, both of stock going to market and to pasture. The rains now present in the state have had a tendency to arrest the rush for pasture.
 Railroad officials stated yesterday that the shippers, while they com- plained at times of the shortage of cars, had accepted the condition in the best spirit possible, knowing that war demands were at the bottom of it There are plenty of refrigerator cars for the fruits, an announcement which | will stop the worry of many who | feared for such crops this year. The l cantaloup crop especially will be well taken care of, say the railroad officials

While J. E. Vardaman hovers be- tween life and death at St. Joseph's hospital the unknown bandit who shot him in the Acre City store Monday night is still at large.
 The officers have not the slightest clue on which to trace the assailant and have not even the knowledge of whether he was an American or Mex ican.

Better Half Succeeds

There was an unusual proceeding in the house when a member was brought to the bar of the house and was ex- pelled by unanimously adopted reso- lution. He was J. Breckenridge Rich ardson of Pima county. Speaker Johns stated the case against him. He said that something more than two weeks ago MT. Richardson applied for and had been granted a leave of absence on some pretext which had been deemed sufficient. It had just been brought to the attention of the speaker that on May 28, in the course of his absence he had been married to Miss Faith Gil- more of Tucson.

 A resolution was accordingly adopted expelling him from the house and seat ing Mrs. J. Breckenridge Richardson in his stead. It was passed without d dissenting vote. There was then a verbal resolution of congratulation to MT. Richardson. followed by a resolu- tion of condolence with Mrs. Richard son, and in view of her marriage to MT. Richardson some sarcastic allusion was made to the curious and ironical fate that had given her the christian name of Faith; her faith had been mis- placed. The wish was also expressed that J. Breckenridge Richardson, Jr., might sometime sit in the house.
 Later in the day the vote of MT. Richardson was challenged by MT. Foster on the ground that he was no longer a member of the house. But it Wss explained that he was acting un- der power of attorney from his wife. now the fourth lady member of the house.

 Both Houses Meet Today
 So sure were the members of the house yesterday morning that the work of the session would be finished that proposition was made to notify the senate that the house would be ready to adjourn sine die at 4 o'clock. It was also proposed to ask the governor if he had any other message to transmit to the legislature; that was a rather nervy proposition inasmuch as the gov ernor's program was still much of it in the air. But as the afternoon wore along there was less talk of sine die adjournment and both of the houses were at recess much of the time en- gagged in the submission by various members of proposals and counter pro- posals none of which were accepted. At a late hour the house adjourned to 10 o'clock this morning and the senate, | to o'clock

 There was a pleasant sequel to the approval of the last named bill when in the afternoon, Speaker Johns stated that there was some business before the house outside the regular order. He said that he had been designated by the Arizona Temperance Fedora tion, and the federation, he said, could not have chosen a worthier medium, to present to Mrs. Marsh author Of the bill a handsome gold pen which the feder- alton had procured for Governor Hunt to sign the bill.

MT. Mo Bride Thanked

 That was not the only felicitous in cident of the day. In the afternoon. MT. Foster of Cochise and MT. Houser of Gila introduced a joint resolution thanking on the part of the legislature, Assistant Attorney General J. F. Me Bride for the assistance he had ren- dered the members in the preparation Of bills and for his helpful criticism of bills which they had prepared them selves. It was stated that MT. Mcbride was peculiarly qualified for this task by his assiduous application to the science of law together with his inher- ent adaptability to the legal profession, a fitness which it might be said was endogentical. The work of MT. Me Bride, it was stated in the resolution had greatly aided the legislature in the enactment of those war measures which had given it full scope in it's part in the struggle ito make safe and to establish democracy throughout the world The resolution was adopted by a rising vote. It was later adopted by the senate.
 The Mckay Arizona vacation reso- lution was also adopted by the house as well as the Claridge memorial to the national food administrator praying for the establishment of wheat termi- nals in Arizona.
 Civil Rights Bill Passes
 The house passed the civil rights bill for soldiers and sailors, which had come from the senate, and House Bill 32 providing for the regulation and sale of the by-products of grains, cot ton seed and alfalfa. The dairy inspec- tion bill was taken up, in the commit tee of the whole and General Manager WindeS of the Pacific Creamery com pany was given an opportunity to ob- ject to that feature of the bill requir- ing that all weighing of milk should take place at the ranch where it is produced.

The Stage Woman's War Relief is
large charity with many branches.
Among its activities is a committee
which has charge of the making Of
wind-proof vests for aviators and 9TH
er fighting men who find it difficult
to dress SO as to keep warm. These
vests are made of old gloves and pieces
of leather and are warmer than
sweaters. 1t is said they are a great
protection against ''beasties" that are
sure to assault the soldier. Gusts of
wind cannot get by them.
Everyone who has old kid gloves to
spare should contribute them to the
army or learn how to make the vests.
The Stage Woman's War Relief has a
large light loft, installed with electric
sewing machines, where the vests are
made. Many of the gloves are sent
In already cleaned-and this Is n great
help-others are sent to the cleaner.
Then they are cut to form fiat pieces
of leather. These are matched up for
size and color. After they have been
pressed out they are basted together
and stitched on paper patterns.
The reverse side of the vest is made
of canton flannel or other cloth. pro-
vfded with a practical and roomy
pocket and then the vest is neatly
bound with braid. Leather book COW
ers and leather postcards can be used
in these vests, as well as gloves, and
some interesting to say amusing
vests result from the use of these.
Any sort of disable leather may be
Communicated for this purpose-pil-
low tops. table covers and book covers.
The leather must be firm and whole,
and contributions are doubly welcome
when they come in clean.
1t is easy to understand that better
vests can be made where large con-
tributions of leather are received and
the pieces can be matched up, than
otherwise. Also then the women making
them become expert Anyone wishing
to do something useful in almost any

The problems of the makers of cor
sets are many and difficult, but the cor
sets of today are marvels of skillful
designing. In the first place those who
create corset styles must understand
thoroughly the various types of figures
and they must undertake to make each
one of them shapely without the sac
rifice of comfort. This is not at all
easy; for the too-slender woman must
be given pretty curves and the fat
woman must have hers smoothed out
Besides, women demand corsets that
are light in weight and have few bones
or steels Fashion DEGREES that wom-
en- shall be so carefully corseted that
they look uncorseted when they are
dressed The contour of the figure
must conform to beautiful lines.
The new corsets are made of firm
but very flexible materials and with
the fewest possible number of bones.
They are nearly all very low in the
bust and give perfect freedom to the
diaphragm There are equally good
models in front and in back-laced
styles so that each woman must deter
mine for herself which is best suited
to her figure.
The corset is the foundation of sue
cessful dressing and should be fitted
with the greatest care We have all
met women who achieve the best style
in the simplest frocks and suits. 1t is
ali a matter of beautifully balanced
lines and one must begin at the begin
ming TO possess them, and the begin
ming is the corset that fits and shapes

derstand this
