MERCHANTS BALL
To BE UNUSUAL

Some time having passed since
masked ball, to which the public has
been invited, has been given in PhOe-
nix. deVOtees of the dance are antic1-
pating with particular pleasure the
merchants masquerade ball to be given
in Patrick's hail Tuesday evening.
February 10, under the auspices of the
Phoenix homestead of the brotherhood
of American Yeomen.
Many of those in attendance viii
wear costumes furnished by local mer-
chants, and to the most clever of these,
prizes viii be awarded by the arrange
ment committee upon recommendation
ner prizes will be awarded to individu-
ais who may mask but not represent
any business house.
This is the second affai. of the sort
to be given by this young but thriving
Phoenix lodge The first was given
just a year ago. and the attendance
on that occasion taxed the capacity of
PatriCk's hall. Improvements since
made have increased the size of the
dance floor, so even a greater number
of persons can be accommodated this
year.
Ed Doheney, J. NJ. TomuskO and
Clyde Timberlake are in charge of the
arrangements, and they are determined
not only that the dance shall be a
success financially, but that every one
who attends shall have one of the most
enjoyable evenings he or she ever has
known. They are being assisted by
several other committees all of whom
are planning daily for the dance.

INVISIBLE SIDE
Of WAR TOPIC
Of. Good TALK

j.. w. Rodgers, noted author and lee
urer, delivered one of the most in
Jeresting lectures ever heard by a
Phoenix audience. at the Monroe
school auditorium last evening. That
he large audience was in complete ac-
cord with his sentiments was evil
fenced by frequent applause.
Mr.. Rodgers subject dealt with the
Invisible side OF war and he made it
clear that war is n diabolical necessity
at the present stage Of human eVolu-
ion, necessity that will disappear
when the races of the earth are able to
establish self-government in all the
countries of the earth.
The lecturer analysed war per Sc
md painted it's horrors III sufficiently
urid colors but he declared its COM
pensations to be great. History shows
hat thus far it has proven to be the
only method to destroy tyranny and by
which the people ca NATHAN self gov
eminent Absolutism was the only
government possible to the infancy of
The race, he argued, and it served a
purpose then. But for the manhood of
which the people can attain self gov
eminent was an insult. The real issue
was democracy against autocracy. and
one of them must go. The logic of
events has forced the nations into
alignment and we see on one side the
practical democracy of England and
the republics of France Russia and the
United States. Against them are the
three great champions of the divine
tights of kings, Germany. Austria and
Turkey, surrounded and desperate.
From every side the armies of the peo-
pie shall advance and the last strong
hold Of autOcracy shall crumble into
dust.
Arguing that We can not now stop
short of world wide democracy Mr.
Rogers said there should be no tolera-
ton Of the government of Il weak peo-
pie by a strong without the consent of
the governed. 1t was no time for insur-
rections and rebelliOns and subject ma
tons should patiently wait rather than
imperil the great issue. But there
should be an immediate declaration to
grant self government to such count
rles at the end of the war
Among the telling points of the lee
ture were the statements, Democracy
viii only have been established at the
end OF the war, it will not have been
perfected The new civilization must
rest upon universal brotherhood and
the conquest of nature not the conquest
of nations"
Tonight Mr. Rodgers will lecture at
the Womans club auditorium on the
subject do We Survive Bodily
Death"

ration of war the Aero Club of Amer
ica-the headquarters of the national
defense movement-was notified. The
sky over New York was full of
radio code messages. In considering
what could be done to assist the
government in finding the source from
which these radio code messages were
sent, it was found that the Allies
We're using special radio direction
finders which were installed on
ships and permitted the ship to find
the direction from which radio mes
sages were sent at sea.
Investigation proved that the nature
of those instruments permitted apply
ing them for aerial navigation pur-
poses.
With the development that has
taken place in perfecting radio di-
rection finders it would be possible
to equip a trans Atlantic flier with
such a device, which would always
point to the direction of a sending
station, so that if any station was es-
tablished at the Azores the aviators
would have no trouble in finding the
Azores and all possibility of losing
himself would be precluded.
We have discussed at length with
Ma jor Perfett, head of the special
Italian missions for aeronautics in the
United States his plans for the trans
Atlantic flight, every detail of which
has been worked out carefully. HaN-
ing considered a great many such
plans in the past ten years we are
thoroughly familiar with the problems
and difficulties attending such :

can be done and done well. The
largest Italian Caproni triplane car
make the trans Atlantic flight easily
and as Major Perfeti has said, the
Caproni company will be glad to I'M
dertake it if arrangements are made
for the flight.
Glenn H Curtiss has also de-
signed an airplane suitable for the
trans Atlantic flight. The Gallaudet
company in this country and the
Handel Page company in Great Brit
ain are also ready to. produce a trans

NEGRO IS ELECTED
TO ASSEMBLY OF N. Y
New York Evening PosO


Edward A. Johnson, negro, re-
publican candidate for assemblyman
in the Nineteenth District. has been
elected by a plurality of 1913 over
Moloney, his democratic rival. The
Nineteenth Assembly District is in
Harlem. where the negro vote con-
stitutes a large percentage of the
total This is the first time in the
history of the city that a negro cam
didate has been elected to office.
Johnson is a lawyer, and served for
several years as an alderman in Raj
eigh n. C. He was formerly dean
of the law department of Shaw
University in North Carolina. In a
statement issued when it became ap-
parent that he would be elected, john
son said:
Il shall do my best to serve all
of the people of the district without
regard of race or creed. The white
people of our district will find lnc
ready to give them just as careful
attention as those of my own race,

be the opening attraction. At Camp

1t is at these theaters, that smileage
books will be used. The smileage cOu
pons will be exchanged for admission
tickets. The coupons are worth five
cents apiece, and the cost of admission
varies from two coupons to five. 1t is
never more than five, which means
that for the equivalent of twenty five
cents, the men in training camps will
see attractions that cost two dollars,

The smileage campaign, which will
place these books o coupons in every
town in the United States is being
backed by members of the Rotary
clubs in the larger cities, and by the
local chairmen of the Lyceum and
Chautauqua committees in ten thous-
and towns. The people are splendidly
united behind the movement, for the
smileage system will provide the means
of financing the performances, and, at
the same time, enable the soldier to
see the shows free of charge. A close

PLANES NOW READY
TO CROSS ATLANTIC
(From Flyingl

The most difficult problem in the
cross Atlantic flight has always been
considered the problem of finding
ones way during the flight. The
distance between Newfoundland and
the Azores is less than 1000 miles,
and those who have given thorough
consideration to the subject have had
little doubt for the past seven years
that an airplane could be built to
cover the 1900 miles. But we ap-
preciate the danger involved in the
pilot losing his way. drifting from his
course and missing the Azores.
The practical solution of the prob
lem of directing the aviators in a
trans Atlantic flight was found by ac-
cident in 1914. Soon after the decla-

MANUFACTURERS AND
MERCHANTS To MEET

Election of a board of governors for
the ensuing year and other important
matters will be attended to at the
annual meeting of the Merchants and
Manufacturers association of Phoenix
this evening at the Hotel Adams.
1t is announced that a number OF
good speakers have consented to lend
their efforts towards making the meet
ing instructive and entertaining. Be-
sides this an interesting program has
been arranged. 1t is requested that
reservations be obtained from the sec
rotary at the association rooms in the
Goodrich block by those who contem-

over a laugh can not be made. The
shows supply the laughs-the civilians
supply the way to get in. Every one
knowing a soldier in a national guard
or national army trainino camp should
send his a smleage book.
The commission on training camp
activities, under whose general direc-
ton all this is being done, is taking care
of the 81 big camps first. When that
circuit is running smoothly arrange
ments will be made for the naval
training stations; but at present, the
smileage books can not be used in any
camp except those Of the national
guard and national army.
General Hugh S. Scott, the old In
dian fighter, who knows soldering
from start to finish and is now in
command of the 18th division at Camp
Dix, heartily endorsed the idea of
smileage in the following letter to the
commission on training camp activi-
ties:
1T is of great interest to me to learn
of your plan to place smileage books
on sale in connection with govern
ment theaters. | can heartily endorse
a scheme which puts before the men of
my command an opportunity to attend
clean and interesting plays and en-
tertainments. Their hours of drill and
work are long. but leave time during
which it is to eVeryone'S advantage
that the enlisted men be entertained
particularly in view of the great change
in conditions under which the soldier
lives as contrasted with those to which
he was formerly accustomed in civil
life"
