BLONDES ARE FlDGETY
Brunette Typists Are Preferred
by Uncle Sam.
Three Thousand Dark and steadier
Girls Employed Before Light
Haired One Lands.

Washington.-The blonde type
writer's of America have reason to fid-
get from the government estimate of
them. 1t appears that the glowing
tributes heretofore bestowed upon
them by the tired business man have
been as inaccurate as have been the
exceedingly biased estimates Of the
tired business mans wife.
The blonde typewriter, though joy
to the eye, is nervous, temperamental
and other than steady, so the govern
ment has decided.
When the government undertook to
pay its new, growing and splendid
army it was found necessary to hire q
few acres of typewriters. Every avail
able loft, hospital, dance hall and
store In Washington was fitted out as
place in which typists might type,
and so great was the volume of work
that the utmost care was taken in the
matter of employing help. Things had
to be done accurately, quickly and con-
tinuously, and the types of typists were
considered at length by persons quail
fed to know star key RATHER at q
glance.
Well, sir, more than 5000 typists
were at work before blonde typist
was accepted. Every brunette avail
able had been pounding the keyboard
for days before it was finally decided
that the light-locked element must be
admitted through force of circum-
stance. There were no more brunette
typewriters out of work.
Then came the beautiful blonde
spring drive. They came with blue
eyes, dimples. little curls, golden
Psyches, pink ears and smiles which
made the grouchy experts dizzy but
unconvinced. They knew that all this
outward dazzle, did not alter the fact
that every blonde cherub was as nerve
GUS as a kitten. and that in burst Of

But they were employed, and now
each blonde in the government service
sits between two brunette typists VINO

ing their work and steadying their
golden-haired companion at the first
sign of hysteria.

quickly adopted. In many cases the
advancing French troops brought the
first aid material and sometimes sue

this might not be such bad bargain
for the United States, for, with
American officers in command, the
Mexican forces could patrol the bor-
der, thereby releasing the thousands
of American soldiers held there for
duty in Europe, and it would enable
us to maintain an efficient guard on
the oil fields and the mines of Mex
leo, whose enormous output could be
turned to the uses of America and of
her associates in the great war. =

 LOCAL HOSPITAL

That the $50,000 issue of construc- tion bonds of the Arizona Deaconess hospital for the completion of the first Sl00,000 new hospital unit of that institution at the corner of Mcdowell road and Tenth street, is regarded as a worthy enterprise and investment by public spirited citiz- ems is evidenced by promises of substantial support from F. A. Seiber- ling, president of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company of Akron, Ohio and Edward F. Parker of the South west Cotton company of Phoenix Both MT. Seiberling, a leading spirit in the development of the Salt River valley and Edward F. Parker, vice. president of the local company, have shown particular interest in this public necessity. Mir. Parker will an nounce the amount of the subscrip- tion by these companies in a few days.
 Just before his departure for Akron the other day, Messrs. John Dennett Jr, J. c. Norton and H. B. Will<in- son interviewed MT. Seiberling with a view of enlisting his cooperation. The largest manufacturer of tires in the world studied the situation for just about 50 seconds and then, call ing MT. Parker into the group, asked him to subscribe to the hospital bond issue as liberally as possible.
 T have always believed in good hospital facilities and accommoda- tions, having been instrumental in the establishment of several in Ohio and we will be glad to assist this enterprise" he said
 Many of the leading men and women of the state have recognized the great need of extended facilities for the care of the sick of Arizona, and have intimated their desire to subscribe to the bonds of the Dea- coness hospital. The issue is of 1,00C $50 bonds, drawing six per cent in- terest, which is payable at the of fees of the Phoenix Title and Trust company, trustee, on September 1 and March 1. The bonds are to be re- | tired March 1, 1928 or sooner. It iS the desire of the trustees to pay the | holders in five or six years and re- issue further bonds for other units as need arises.

EASTERN STAR BOOTH THRIFT
 SALE NOTABLE

Op the final day of the 10 days period during which Queen Esther Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, has had charge of the War Savings booth in the postoffice lobby, the sales mounted to the handsome figure of $720. This was one of the best days for the postoffice booth since it was opened several weeks ago. It means that the total sum raised by the Eastern Star by this method will compare well with the best selling both in the city.
 It was during slight Hull in the activity about the booth yesterday that a quiet, unassuming, motherly look ing woman approached Mrs. Bessie Stewart, one of the Stars" in charge yesterday. She clasped slip of paper in her hand.
 I'm Martha Lane and my son George is in the navy" she said. Today re- ceived this check from the government, a mothers allowance for the service of her loved one. And I'm going to put boys OCT there.'"
 Mrs. Lane, the mother who even sacrifices her allowance from the gov- 
 the war, has her only son, George V. Lane, doing his bit" She is the wife of John H. Lane and lives at Four teenth and Van Buren streets. There was more human interest, more real complication of the spirit that will spell success for the War Savings movement, in the act of Mrs. Lane, than appeared on the surface of any other incident at the PoStoffice booth yesterday.
 For the 10 days the Eastern Star has had charge of the booth the sales mounted to the grand total of s3,32S.07. Mrs E. P. Biddings has been chairman of the booth the past ten days and has been assisted each day by different corps of volunteers. Yesterday Mrs Bessie Stewart, Mrs. A. T. Hargrave and Mrs. Copeland Schumann were in charge.

from Japan. Italy and France. There are no factories for making silk piece goods in China, all the weaving being done by hand. With the exception of pongees, the products of the Chinese looms are not popular abroad, except in Oriental countries being too heavy, although the patterns are won- derfully beautiful and the colors ex- ceedingly rich.
 The pongees are woven in the homes of the peasants and as they come from many looms no two pieces are ever exactly alike in weight, fine ness, color and texture. The Shan lungs come from the Liutang district, and the Nachai from the Nighai dis trict.
 These pongees are made from the wild silk of Manchura, where the silk worms are not cultivated and fed on mulberry leaves as in the rest of China. but feed at will on oak leaves. In the spring the eggs hatch on the branches of the oak trees, and the cocoons are gathered about Sep- tember.
 On attaining their full growth silk worms seek something to which to attach themselves in order to wind themselves up in their silk envelopes. Having found it, the worm spins a thread from 800 to 1000 yards long, wrapping it around it's body as it spins. This takes from thirty six to forty eight hours. If left alone the worms skin hardens, it's internal organs disintegrate to thin jelly and then begin regorganizing themselves into those of a butterfly. Within a week or ten days it would be but terfly and as such would eat its way through it's envelope of silk.

This is the largest loan any government has ever asked of it's citizens
 It expresses unbounded confidence in our re- sources and in our patriotism-our ability and willingness.
 Let us accept this call upon us in spirit of pro- found thankfulness that we have the means and the heart to do what is asked of us-and more.
 Exaltation is the keynote of this Fourth Lib erty Loan campaign.
 Let us all rejoice that our mighty country is now ready to deliver the blow that will give the world perpetual peace.
 And let each of us rejoice that the Fourth Lib- erty Bond issue gives us the privilege and high honor of contributing to this end
 There will be no coercion nor intimidation in the campaign in Jefferson county.
 There is no need of such
 This county has always exceeded the quotas placed upon it.
 The quota for the country at large is twice that of the Third Liberty Loan
 For Jefferson county it is nearly three times as much.
 We are thus put in the front line of the battle. and we are going to prove worthy of the dstinc- tion
 We speak for the mass of our people. Those not in sympathy with this high motive will con-

demn themselves; the burden upon their heads will be of their own making.
 For the inspiration of al let us state that no campaign in Jefferson county has been more carefully planned and thoroughly organized than the one upon which we are now entering
 Approximately 25O0 men and women have en- rolled for this work, leaving their business and their home life for service "in the trenches" without pay.
 In this splendid organization all classes of cit izenship are included-white and colored, native Americans and foreign born
 All fused into one harmonious body, with one common purpose, the raising of the money need ed by our government and maintaining the pres tige of Jefferson county.
 In their behalf and the cause they represent, we are asking you to be ready to buy when they call
 Their time is all the more valuable because given without compensation. Saveit
 And be ready to buy to the full limit of your ability, your own conscience being the judge
 If self-denial is required, remember the word brought back from "Over There" of the supreme sacrifices being made by our allies and our own boys of Alabama and Jefferson county.
