MESA RED CROSS Is
 GIVEN PYTH|AN FUND

MESA, March 6.-The Mesa branch of the Red Cross will be the richer by 1850. owing to the generosity of the To- cal lodge of the Pythian Sisters.
 It will be remembered that before the armistice was signed, the Pythian sis ters of the state set out to equip q certain number of ambulances for ser vice in the war. The Mesa lodge be- gan the making of Red Cross quilt, selling the squares at so much each and working the names of the people purchasing, into the square selected The quilt was completed some time ago and the money, S350. sent in to the grand lodge to be handled in accord ance with the plan arranged. Now the good women of the lodge have had tho money returned to them with the sug- gestion that since the war is ended and the ambulances not needed. the money could be turned over to the local Red Cross. This will be done.
 At the first public gathering in Mesa on behalf of the Red Cross, the quilt will be auctioned off and the proceeds added to the above amount John Cum mard, chairman of the local branch. is very pleased over the money which came in, as much as there are number of places where the present funds are being disbursed, principally to the wives of soldiers who are on duty in France.

QUEEN ELIZABETH HAD
 CANNON 24 FEET LONG
CMnntreaI Herald

Although one is astounded to hear of the immense size of the heavy artillery used by both sides in the resent war. it should be borne in mind that projec- tiles of even larger diameter were used long ago.
 The first niece of artillery recorded (according to London Answers), was made by Schwartz, a German. soon after the invention of gunrowder in 1880, while the first use of artillery in warfare was probably made by the Moors of Algeciras, Spain. in f343. The town is situated on the same bay and opposite to Gibraltar. It is interesting to remember that the present Spanish governors full title is Governor of AL geciras and Gibraltar, temporarily in the occuna tion of the British an ex- ample of optimism that surely deserves to become classical.
 Edward III at Crecy in 1346 had four pieces of cannor and he also used ar tillery at the siege of Calais in the fol- lowing year.
 In Edenburgh. to which it was trans ferred from London at the request of Sir Walter Scott. may be seen in Mons Meg. a large cannon 13 feet long and 20 inches caliber, which is said to have been used by James II at the siege or Thrieve castle in 1455. This gun used stone. Five years later the king met his death at Roxburg by the bursting of similar cannon, the Lion.

START AUTO STAGES
 BUT HAD M LICENSE

Two cases dealing with Mexicans operating stages without proper au- thority were dismissed yesterday by the corporation commission for the reason that the MeXicans were ignor- 'ant of the law in the matter and promised to be good-through an in- terpreter. They were warned, however, of the serious results that would at tend another infraction of the rules.
 The Egypt Stage company was the complainant in one case. Jose Barajas. Francisco Arcia and Miguel Sanchez being the offenders. They said they thought they could run stage between Chandler and Mesa when they had se- cured machine and a state license.
 The other complaint was by Lewis c. Williams and J. E. Wish. operating stages between Phoenix and the Buck eye country. The Mexicans concerned were Longino Riveria and Andres Rives.

(AIbuauerque JournaD

The new Mexico College of Agricul- ture and Mechanic Arts recently aston ished the citizens who pass along the Camino road by cutting down the wild sunflowers that grew by the roadside and hauling them to the experiment station and putting them into a silo. Professor George R. Quesenberry, in charge of the college farm work, has already conducted silage experiments with the Russian sunflower. which he has grown extensively on the college farm. The wild sunflower has hereto fore been considered a pest.
 President Austin D. Grille says that 'he college expects to go ahead and ex pertinent with every weed. grass and shrub that grows in New Mexico: that the first good rule to follow is to save what we have and then hunt for some thing else.

ACCUSE U. S. SHOE MAKERS

NEW YORK. Feb. 19.-Testimony that Morris and Lee Rossenwasser, Brooklyn manufacturers. who filled large army contracts for leather arti- cles, put inferior r. terial into some of the shoes they turned out for American troops, was given today at their trial in federal court, Brooklyn. on charge of conspiracy to defraud the govern ment.
 W. s. Richardson. chief inspector of stock at the Rossenwasser factory, and later inspector at the quartermaster depot at Philadelphia, told the jury that the firm had used e-tanned vegetable leather in some of it's gov ernment contracts.

as a summer resort. But it isn't. find now that the initiates have en- jOyed it in winter as well as summer. To those who do not care for crowds running into the thousands, the win ter season of Catalina is ideal. Golf. tennis. fishing boating. mountaineer- ing. walking and all the invigorating exercise of the great outdoors with the exception of bathing are delightful in the Catalina winter months. And even bathing is great for the man who likes a brisk cold plunge in the salt water. Very soon we shall have at the hotel a large outdoor swimming tank with tempered water. The tank is 90 feet above sea level and water flows through it continuously.
 The steamer Cabrillo and its 26- mile voyage to Catalina form one of the most delightfuls features of the visit to Catalina. From the prov of the Cabrillo the voyageur can look out to sea and note the gradual approach of the high peaks of Catalina. As you approach the island, you see the pretty coves and rocks taking on definite form. On the heights you see the greencry of m eastern springtime. And if you're lucky or have glasses at hand you can sec the wild goats leaping from rock to rock at dizzy heights. It gives you a thrill when the steamer runs into the beautiful bay at Avalon and blows a long blast on the whistle. The echo is repeated from scores of cliffs and ridges and seems to sound a welcome to the new visitor.
 4 Strange World Through Glass
 Another boat trip for which Cata- lima is famous. is without parallel in all the world. Looking through the glass bottom of the little steamers that skirt the island, you gaze down into a strange world-a world peopled with brilliantly colored fish swimming through forests of feathery verdure High stalks of kelp touch the bottom of the boat while huge tree-like ferns waver and bend with the motion of the water. On my first trip in the glass bottom boat I saw literally hun dreds of sea-doves, sea-gulls and peli- cans. Dignified bald-headed petrels scurried away from the boat. Later we saw scores of seal. some of them weighing a ton. Mother seals with their young stunned themselves on flat rocks only a few feet from our boat. UT l above on a cliff two black and tan goats gazed down at our party. And far above was the bluest sky in crea- tion and below was the shimmerine blue of the sea.
 There's charm about Catalina that is subtle and elevating. It's the para disc alike of the he-man who likes the great outdoors or of the young woman of romantic tendencies. Catalina is g complete world in itself for every ont of the seven ages of man.

DOPING OF THE HAT
 HAS ANCIENT ORIGIN

We consider man a gentleman who takes off his hat to a lady. At least the act IS thought to be gentlemanly polite. The origin of this custom. like so many other customs common among so-called civilized peoples, goes back to primitive times, says the Salt Lake Tribune.
 When person was made captive his conqueror stripped him of his weapons and clothing and left him without any thing he could call his own. The cap tive was thus made a slave. lis lack of clothing being evidence of his subjuga- tion. We need only to look at the sculp- lures of the Assyrians to see the truth Of the fact. And in Isaiah 20:2-4 we find the following statement: And the Lord said, like as my servant Isaiah hath worked naked and barefoot three years for a sign, so shall the king or Assyria lead away the Egyptians pris- oners and the Ethiopian captives, young and old, naked and barefoot"
 The first step then, in tracing the origin of taking off the hat, is the sur render of the clothing among primitive and ancient peoples as a mark of sub mission. The next step is the uncov- ering of the body as a mark of rever- ence. There are all degrees of uncov- ering, though often only the most val uable parts of the clothing are taken off in the presence of superiors.
 It must be remembered that this act of uncovering the body was ceremonial in nature and used 10 show reverence to superior. Then came the use of the ceremonials to propitiate the dead. We can see a remnant of this most any time. At funerals and in our grave yards men take off their hats. They still take off their hats on entering | churches and before images of Christ | and the Madonna.
 | In times of chivalry men raised their hats to ladies to show reverence But this was only superficial in meaning.sA knight would ride down a poor peasant woman carrying a large burden and l never think of helping her-least of all would he think of taking off his hat to her. However, if he heard of some beautiful damsel of his own class in the slightest danger, imaginary or real, he would go to her, and hat in hand, kneel and dedicate himself to her service. Today much the same things occur. Ordinarily a gay youth forgets to take | off his hat to his mother, yet he shows this difference to his best girl" After all it is only form, and politeness should go deeper than this. However, the form persists, and it is of some historical in- terest to remember that it is a remnant of the primitive stripping of a captive by which process was expressed the fact that he yielded up all he had. Talk ing off the hat to wealthy girl means occasionally, not only the yielding up of all you have, but the getting of all she has. Ceremony is often nothing but hard calculation in regard to per sonal results, especially where self az grandizement is the ultimate aim of the polished individual

March 2.-"The seven ages of man find complete ex- prossion at Catalina Island" said William Wrigley in speaking of his recent purchase of the little 50.00C- acre continent off southern California. .G cannot imagine a man or woman of any age not being completely en- thusiastic over this wonderland of beauty.

The fact Is that I signed up for the pur- chase without even having seen the wonderful isle After it was too late Co change my mind.
