Efficient Sealer of Weights
 and Measures Expected to Be Succeeded In Office By Clarence Ice Shortly

It required several months to bring this condi- ] ton about, but when it had beer accomplished the work became large l ly routine.
 1.bout that time several ordi- nances were adopted correcting con- ditiOns with relation to the supply and distribution of milk and butter throughout the city. These ordi- nances provided for the appointment of an inspector and the work was given into the hands of Inspector I kehoe through d consolidation O the two offices.

Tribute to Godowsky

Leopold GodOWskY enjoys the friend ship and the admiration of his col leagues in the realm of musical en- deavor Josef Hofmann. as a rule a quiet and especially undemOnstrative individual, waxes enthusiastic when Godowsky is the theme of his discourse.
 The twain are friends of long stand ing. with esteem and respect for each others qualities. mutuality of artistic interests and expectations Hofmann is keenly sensitive of the ideality of his friends outlook upon art, music and the culture trend of modern thought.
 In a recent issue of Vanity Fair, Josef Hofmann writes eloquently about Godowsky To quote: "A few days ago I was asked by a friend, why it is that everybody loves GodoWsly@ 1 ,an- swered Because his character is as true as gold and his art as pure as crystal Little wonder that everybody that knows him and his art loves him.
 With this happy combination of high personal and artistic qualities GodoWsky eXerts a strong influence upon his fellow artists. I doubt ii there are many pianists today that have not learned something. from him; 1 know that l did, and am thankful for it."

SAMMY IS GREETED
 BY TRENCH PAPER
(The OutlOok)

One of the literary products of the War has been the trench paper. There have been many forms of this new va riety of journalism. Some of the pa pers, particularly in the early. weeks and months of the war, were written in pen or pencil and passed about: oth- CTS were reproduced on duplicating machines; and some have attained the dignity of real presSWork One of these which is not published in the trenches, but in Paris, and has attained the dig nity of real comic paper, is La Baion- rette.

ROOSE WELT |S
 BENEFITED BY
 MODERATE RAIN
Mountain Region Receives
 First Real Showers in Misunderstanding Will be Improved by Hard Shower

While Phoenix and the Salt River Valley did not directly get a rain yes tcrday, there was rain in the Roosevelt region which extended as far as Miami and undoubtedly has done tremendous good in the grazing country, to say nothing of increasing the water supply somewhat,
 It was still raining at Roosevelt at a o'clock yesterday afternoon up to which time a tenth of an Inch naG fallen. At the intake the total rainfall up to o'clock was seven -tenths of an inch and the rain was still coming down steadily.
 It was also raining steadily at Carr's ranch in the sierra Ancha mountains and up 10 o'clock, the last time it was possible to reach the ranch, eight -tenths of an inch of rain had fallen.
 Miami repouts a steady rain all day but no definite measurement is re- ported from that city while in the Ton tu valley it rained all day. Back Of Roosevelt it was showing in the noun tains. at last reports.
 Snow fell at Flagstaff which, melted, showed only the equivalent in actual moisture of one -hundredth of an inch This, however will be d big help in that region.
 Observer Grant could see no signs of rain for Phoenix in the immediate future, but through his cooperation his assistant. Kenneth Meeller, secured over the telephone the figures given for the Roosevelt Miami section.
 The area of low pressure which brings rain was moving steadily east ward, according 10 indications. with Flagstaff somewhere near It's center. Since there was no rain in Southern California, and the wind was rather northwest than southwest, the pros pect for the rain coming down here was slight but the heavy wind lead many not of scientific turn to believe that rain would certainly visit the val ley in short order.
 The rain should prove of great bene> fit to stockmen though enough of it to lay the dust in the Salt River Val ley would undoubtedly be richly ap- preCiated here even if the irrigation system is entirely dependable.

Middies' Tears
 Turned To Joy
 By Courts Act

In order that she might give her babies the pretty things that other mothers could afford to give their children, Mrs. Inoscensia Arriaga stole dainty slippers, fine socks and other articles from downtown de- partment stores. 1his was the story told by the woman to Justice Wheeler yesterday when she was brought into court charged with shop-Iiftnq. She declared that it was her first offense and commit ted, she said, for her youngsters, who were denied all Iuxuries.
 That the children are devoted to their mother was demonstrated when she was taken into custody Tuesday evening, when with the bars between them, they wept copiousIy and urged the officers to let their mother go.
 Justice Wheeler imposed six months suspended sentence on Mrs. Arriags.

 H. W. Asbury and Franklin D. Lane were named a special com mittee to look into the telephone proposition which the state com mission has been asked to pass l upon. a'his does not mean that the organization plans to oppose the re- | quest of the telephone company, but that it wishes to thoroughly undor- stand them so that it may be sure 1 there is nothing hidden which would work a hardship in this secction.
 C. D. Doris, Webb Griffin and R. 1 D. Roper were named a committee | to take up the question of some suitable place for the parking of auto visitors or even for the ac- 1 commodatiOn of camping parties. 1 This committee will meet with a committee of the Woman's club on | Saturday to consider this important | question.
 l With regard to the train connec- i tions at Maricopa it was stated that 1 the evening train up from the june tion leaves 20 minutes ahead of the ] trains arrival from the west and Dr. J. C. Norton was named com mnttee to investigate and see if it 1 could not be arranged so that this train could connect with both the east and westbound trains so that none need stay over at Maricopa.

Billie Burke at lamara

Anything pertaining to the war is of most timely interest nowadays, but it is mighty seldom that the lighter side of the great struggle is featured as cleverly as in Arms and the Cir" the comedy drama which delightful Billie Burke is appearing at the La mara for the last time today. The story deals with war ridden Belgium, but eliminates the terrible scenes that have become associated with the or deal through which that unhappy country has passed. Instead, it bases it's plot on the adventures which be- fell two Americans, a handsome young man and a charming young girl, who were stranded when the war broke, and who in the spirit of assistance has in- nocently aided a Russian spy, much sought by the Germans. It becomes a battle of Yankee wit and nerve against the unrelenting cruelty of the Hun, the climax being reached, when. to save the young man who has befriended her the girls claims him as her fiance and agrees to a marriage.
 The Burton Holmes pictures of trave are also being shown.

"Bondaqe" at Hip Today

This is the final day of Dorothy Phillips in Bondage" a very smart story of a discontented woman. In "BondaSe" the woman is a girl with utopian ideas and head full of thoughts of woman's freedom and the story of how she peeps over the brink of the abyss of dishonor, is smartly depicted in the story.
 Dorothy Phillips, who gained much prestage in her two former pictures of note, Hell Morgan's Girl'' and Pay Me- has a sparkling part as the "girlr in this creation. It is well spiced with fine news reel that contains many of the best camera subjects of the onth.

BUY WASH GOODS NOWv
We Firmly Believe Every Piece of Wash Goods on Our Shelves Will Cost More

The law of supply and demand is the cause for the statement made above. Until the war broke out, cottons were not so much in use during the winter months-woolens having first call. During the past season, however with the Government appealing for the con- servation of wool, women periodically took to the less necessary of the two. So that the supply for the summer months to come will be less than heretofore Supply less, price more. That is the invariable result of the law of supply and demand.
 In view of the very logical arguments above, we not only suggest to our customers, but urge them that they buy their wash materials now for Summer and Spring cotton frocks and have them on hand. You'll thank us for the advice later on.
