COMES T0 C|TY TO A|D IN SECURING UNIFORM MOTOR TRAFFIC LAWS

Hon. Frank L. Eksward, a senator of the California legislature and author of the California automobile law, com monly known as the Eksward law, pro- nounced the best and most advanced in existence, arrived in the city yesterday. He is making a tour of the Pacific coast states in effort to secure a uni form traffic code and he is supported by the most forward traffic associations in the country.
 He is the guest of Traffic Officer Bush Anderson whom he met at the June meeting of the traffic officers as sociation, and last night he said that at that meeting Mir. Anderson was regard ed as authority on traffic regulations.
 MT. Eksward is especially interested in regulations that look to greater, if not absolute, safety in the operation of automobiles. Te is a strong ad- vocate of legislation against the glaring headlight which has been suppressed in California. There are 39 kinds of safety headlights allowed there, and some of them may be home made. Whether they can be used or not is de- termined by the electrical engineering department of the state university. Other legislation, in the interest ct which Mir Eksward is working, relates to the protection of automobiles against theft.
 He will remain in the city about two weeks, after which he will leave for Seattle to attend meeting of the traf- fic officers association.

THE BRAT" PROVES
 TO bE ANOTHER B|G
 SUCCESS AT ELKS

With the opening of it's second week in Phoenix, presenting an excellent version of Maud Fulton's incompar- able comedy drama, "The Brat" the Edler Stock company last night put across, with it's splendid aggregation of players, a production worthy of the patronage of the most enthusiastic Phoenix theatre -goers
 The production is full of splendid parts, each one rendered in splendid manner by players especially suited to stock work. The leading role of The Brat" was placed in the hands of the very capable ingenue, Miss Ruth Orinsby. She does some remarkable work, especially excellent in her transitions from pathos to comedy She has a distinct stage personality, which aids her greatly in the presenta- tion of this role. She proved herself capable last night of holding her audi ence in intense interest, and every climax in the production she got over big, never losing an opportunity to display an irrepressible charm which won the hearts of her enthusiastic audience.
 Every part is worthy of especial mention, each player giving a natural unaffected performance Miss Wini- fred Greenwood, as Angela Smythe, gave a strong characterization.
 Clifford Alexander, as Stephen Forester, the younger brother makes his part stand out distinctly. The other actors. Charles c. Perley, Will liam Brewer, Ralph W. Bell, Fern Foster and Zoe Bates are in line with the rest, acting their parts strongly and cleverly.
 There was a distinct atmosphere about the whole production and the manager, Charles Edler, directed the play with an admirable rise of sus. pense and keen sense of humor.
 The story encompasses the lives of

Mary Miles Minter at Columbia

Mary Miles Minter in Rosemary Climbs the Heights" opens a two-day stay at the Columbia theater today.
 With a heart free from callouses, Rosemary, a village product with a talent for doll carving, is precipitated into the turmoil of the city. She is chased but chaste throughout and braves the snags of intrigue and under hand connivance to the end.
 Rosemary Climbs the Heights" is not so much of story jammed with the glue of plot as it is a human character ization with surprise and opposition enough to make it firmly clinch the at tention.
 Rosemary, first as the village girl, later as the city artist, is portrayed with both spiritual and physical mas tery and, with the direction of Lloyd Ingraham proves to be the very best of Miss Winters impersonations.
 A Current Topics and a Pathe Re view, featuring the ever popular slow motion pictures, are supplementing numbers of the program.

Putting One Over" at the Lamara
 George Walsh in Putting One Over" is the attraction for the last time at the Lamara today. The smiling ath- letic George has a wonderful role in the dual personality he portrays in this fast moving comedy drama.

Then the catspaw falls in love with the girl, things be- gin to happen, for he realizes the scheme of the gang, and sets himself to fight them single handed. During the action. Walsh is seen in some of the newest athletic stunts in pictures.
 The Bray Cartoon is the added at traction, which also closes with the engagement of the feature with the final showings tonight.

Billie Burke at The Strand

For the final showings at the Strand tonight, Phoenix's handsomest play house is offering Billie Burke in her latest laughing riot "The Misleading Widow" It is an amusing combination vivacious, sparkling humor, handled in a most brilliant manner by this win
 some girl, and ridiculous situations, created because of the fact that the town gossips find fault with the widow, who is entertaining in her home with out a chaperon, two army officers who have returned from overseas service. The fact that one of the officers hap pens to be the husband of the widow whom the widow thought dead, and the other his personal friend, never en- tered into the controversy until the tangled threads begin to assume some thing like tangible form at the end of the story, which has been received as one of the most refreshing offerings Of real merit presented for sometime.

THE FIRST DOSE MADE ME FEEL So MUCH BETTER
We'll Known Citizen of Mo- bile Declares the New Medicine, Dreco, Relieved His Kidney, Liver and Stomach Troubles Very Quickly.

q had such awful pains in my back that sometimes it felt like a ton of bricks was bearing down on me, and l could find nothing that gave me relief, That is how MT. w. A. Young, the well known carpenter of 204 Dauphine street Mobile. Ala, described his sui fering But the new medicine Dreco made a big difference in me from the very start"
 Tn addition to the kidney pains, l also had constipation and headaches, pains in my limbs; I was so nervous that I never got a good nights Sleep and my appetite fell to almost noth- ing. My work was pretty hard and knew a man in my condition was lia- ble to have breakdown. I had bought several kinds of medicine, which I saw advertised in the papers, but none seemed to hit my case. I have always had faith in the old time root and herb medicines, though, so when read about Dreco I bought a bottle, and my improvement began with tie first dose. It relieved the constira- tion almost imm ediately; stopped the headaches my nerves became quieted. and began to sleep the whole night through, and wake up refreshed. The pains in my back grew less day by day, and now l have no pain at all. Any medicine that will do that kind of work should be told about to everyone, and that is why I am willing to have yeI publish my case.'
 Dreco acts on the bowels and re lieves constipation thereby removing the cause of many troubles. It will be noticed that after taking Dreco the headaches fail to appear; the nerves are soothed; sound sleep is induced the appetite increases; no more dizzy spells; stomach digests the fooG without having gas to follow, and the kidneys perform their duty of strain- ing the impurities from the blood. thereby putting a stop to rheuma tisnl and other troubles.
 Dr. Tharp, the well known Drec 3 expert, has headquarters at Jacobs Pharmacy to meet the local public and explain the merits of this great rem edy See him today. Dreco is also sold by the Fulton Drug Co, Besse | mer; Halls Pharmacy. Fairfield; Gen. rtral Pharmacy, Wylam-Adv.

 No one would dare to predict today s figures. If Birmingham was an average city which it is not, the second day would show slight falling off in num- bers and an increase in determination The determination is here and the cam paign committee rather expects that the days results will measure up to those of the first day.
 Aside from the fine showing for the first day, the features of the luncheon were the rivalry between the red, white leadership of W. H. Maxim and the talk by the Rev. John A. MacSporran.

 The reds took the leadership in mem berships secured, 222. The whites were a close second with 212 and the blues were in third place with 136.
