DISSEXT|LE YEARS
 CERTAIN APPROACH;
 PICk YOUR PARTNER

Oh, boy, it will soon be leap year.
 Never before hava the girls felt a leap year was as truly necessary as this season and the cause is the war.
 Somehow or other the war. which has been held responsible for all the unrest and unsettled conditions, has also worked havoc with the little god of love. And Cupid hasn't had a look in since the signing of the armistice. Of course, there have been a few mar riages but on the whole there have been mighty few and it has been ex- plained as war reaction" by one who knows.
 Miss Janet Dougheity. recently ar rived from Chicago, who admits she knitted everything knlttable during the war for particular man, does not blame him for side stepping marriage on his return.
 You see." she said. he was deadly serious during the long war period. He was over there enduring hardships that he still refuses to discuss so that it is no wonder that after his return he wanted to butterfly for bit.
 "He was making the world safe for democracy. for his son's son and all that sort of thing, but now the respon- sibility of son fills him with more terror than he experienced in going over the top.
 Hes been starved for pleasure and he thinks he is enjoying life by cor nering them all He's not. The thing that will wake him up is when some girl has the nerve to explain it all to him and ask him to share his life with her. There's one thtng she must re- member though and that is to be a good sport and if he turns her down to take 1t like man.
 Miss Daugherty, who is intensely modern, ayers that Q woman has equal rights to mon in the marriage market and she says she is going to prove it.
 There's a brand new bride in town, Mrs. Avery Corpstsin who disagrees with the Chicago girl.
 The wife of the mayors son says that there are a thousand and one men for every woman ani the one out of the thousand and one will speak when he is ready.
 Mrs. Corpstein. who before her mar riage was Miss Georgia Mintz, a so- ciety favorite. declares that man would be embarrassed by a woman's advances and in this high cost of 1iv- ing age. She does not give this as her chief reason for opposing leap year proposals but merely one of number the greatest of which is how could a girl"
 Mrs. Corpstein says that after mar riage husband might remind his wife that it was she who made the marriage which is believed would end in the di- vorce court.

terially strengthened by the addition of Walter Hastings Olney, who will have charge of the the department of vocal music. MT. Olney comes to Phoenix as musician of the very best training both in this country and in Europe. He has received a high edu- cation in other lines as well, and has specialized as linguist. even to the study of Chinese.
 Mir. Olney has a superb baritone voice, and is singer of considerable note. He was a member of the cast of the American prize opera ''Fairyland," :" which was given under the auspices of the National Federation of Womens clubs in Los Angeles in July, 1915. In this same production were such well known artists as Marcella Craft, Kath- leen Howard, Ralp Errolle and William Wade Hinshaw. Olney was one of the singers authorized by the government to direct the four minute community sings" He ranks high as a teacher, and has made special study of the placing and development of the human voice.
 TEACHING THE YOUNG IDEA.
 In the belief that early training counts for everything in the develop ment of a true musician, Mrs. Christy is laying special stress this year on the schools primary training department which will be under the capable direc- ton of Mrs. Luther Steward. Mrs. Steward has made an exhaustive study of six leading modern methods and

ALMOST MARRIED"
 |s FEATURE 1T HIP

How can a man suffer the humilia- ton of receiving as his step-mother the girl he loves?
 This is what confronts Darlington | O'Connell in Almost Married the clever Metro farce comedy that brings Mae Allison to the Hip screen to start the week today.
 Mae Allison has been responsible for some of the most vivacious portrayals ever brought to pictures. She last appeared here in For Thirty Days. which was received as a brilliant comedy offering.
 In the present bill, we find her cast for a singer in a tourist town in the Alps mountains. The tourists travel miles to hear her sing and this ac- counts for the fact that Michael O'ConneIl's Ca Swede) journey to the Alps. Darlington promptly falls in love with Adrienne (Mae Allison) and his love is returned.

bait you ever heard tell of
 And the beauty about the potato bug is that you can catch him when you want him. Always you know enough to hunt up the potato patch and you'll find him. Never have to go digging through the whole back yard for him. Merely plant few potatoes in the spring and you'll have fishing bait all summer-and spuds for eating when fishing is over. Like all great discoveries this crept up on Eldon before he knew it. Hap pened one day he wanted to go fishing, and same day his ma said as how he had to chase the potato bugs off the plants into tin can. Collected about quart of them when he wanted to be digging worms for bait. No time for digging plenty of bugs.
 Believe I'll try em for bait" Eldon observed. Other kids laughed at him. Just like they did at c. Columbus And at T. Edison.
 1 He slipped a nice fat potato bug on the hook, dropped it into the creek, and right away quick fish fell for it.
 Another bug caught another fish.

COLOR SCHEME:
 HAT AND GOWN
 HERE IS YOURS

Have you ever considered what color you should wear-what in fact, is your color? In this day end age when every woman is agreed that she owes it to herself to be as attractive as possible this is of vital importance.
 In the business world and in the home the woman's appearance has great weight that caa not be underes- timated. It is well known fact that if a woman knows berself to be be- comingly gowned sl.e gains confi- dence in herself that she might other wise lack.
 Take for instance, the case of Mrs Percival. Mrs PercivAl would be rav- ishly pretty in a pale pink frock, yet she persits in wearing crimson. It is distressing to her friends and her hus- band secretly wonders why his wife does not look as at .ractive as Mrs Paine. who has not half her beauty There are thousands of Mrs. Percivals who make the serious mistake of wear ing the wrong shade instead of the color tone that accentuates their charm
 Then there's the girl in business. "A man does not engage his stenographeT because of her appear ance regardless of the funny papers, but he does moi like her to attract attention because of her lack of it. She reflects her per sonality in her costuming and it is al- ways pleasant to have some one bright and cheerful in se1v ice
 The Republican believes it is the duty of a woman to make color study and was pleased to leceive the follow ing letter from one of its readers which is answered in this column:
 Phoenix, Arizona. The Arizona Republican:
 I want to ask question for the question and answer column:
 What color of clothing is suitable for brunettes?

Sixteen years ago a modest sign was hung out over a certain office building on Center street of the town of Phoe- nix which caused no small wonder ment on the part of a majority of the natives, and derisive smiles from the would-be wise. The sign read "Ari- zona School of Musicn
 Someone indeed was getting @all fired high falutin" notions-so unused the residents of that city. What need had Phoenix for school of music? :? How did anyone expect that such an institution could flourish? It was too much like trying to raise orchids in the middle of the desert No siri It just couldn't be done," and that was all there was to it.
 But it was done. For the Arizona School of Music stands today as one of the highest institutions of it's kind in the southwest. It is recognized throughout the musical world as high-standard school, and it's gradu- ates are in demand for the superior training they have received from in- structors of excellent training and ex- perience.

Last year there was a total enrolment of 657 pupils in all departments. A check of the enrolment for this year made yes terday indicates that it will run from 800 to 300, and possibly higher. Ap- plications for admission have come from all parts of Arizona, and in addi- tion from the state of California, Texas, South Dakota and Idaho. These

outside students have been attracted here not only by the high worth of the school, but by the cultural advantages afforded by the city of Phoenix.
 The institution stands today as a glowing tribute to the persistent pur- pose of a pioneer in art-a woman, Mrs. Shirley Christy, it's founder. It was she who foresaw the needs and possibilities of such an institution. It was she who was laughed to scorn at the time being an idealit--a dreamer in advance of her day. And it is Mrs. Shirley Christy, who through con- tinued concentration of her efforts has built up. added to, and made the Ari- zona School. of Music factor of far reaching influence in moulding the cul- tural side of the people of a great pioneer state.

from these she has evolved system of training which combines thoroughness with simplicity and ease.
 Naturalness is the keynote of suc- cess in the primary training course. The child is given a thorough schooling in technique, ear training and sight reading, but in a manner which makes the task a pleasant one and anything but drugery. This is due largely to the fact that the old methods of rigid position and finger exercises are sup planted by those which aim to secure correct position through natural pose, and to develop individuality and originality in the player.
 In this course three lessons a week have been provided for. Two of these are private and the third in class, thus enabling the cost to te reduced to an exceptionally reasonable figure.
