were offered by the queen to the stu. dents who invented new dishes. The students were from all classes of so, ciety, working girls, social butterflies and intellectuals.
 The queen is an expert cook, herself and frequently called at the school to advise the teachers and watch the progress of the students. Among her numerous charities, not the least is the Albert-Elizabeth dispensary in Brussels which the king and queen es- tablished and have supported for years.
 The king and queen are enthusiastic about aviation and both have taken number of flights, two of which in cluded trips across the English Chan nel from Paris to London. On March Is, 1917, Albert made a long recon naisance in biplane over the Yser front under a heavy anti-aircraft fire by the Germans. At other times, the daring monarch visited" Ostend, Bruges, Dunkirk and other Belgian
  cities, in machines that carried him high above the guns.
 Grateful for the aid which the United States and the allies bestowed upon Belgium in her hours of trial, the kings visit is said to be partly to ex- press this appreciation on behalf of his country to the American people. One of the gifts which Albert I and Elizabeth are bringing to this country is complete table set of Brussels porcelain for President and Mrs. Will son, whose guests they will be at the White House for part of, their stay. Upon leaving the United States the royal couple are to visit King Alfonso and Queen Victoria of Spain, for both 'f whom they have a warm attach nent.

DAREDEVIL FEAT OF II. LOCkLEAR TO BE
 SEEN AT STATE FAIR

Phoenix, Oct. Tiff Locklea
 could stage his act under my big top
 I'd give him $20,OOO year as long al
 he would work for me-, declared Johl
 Ringing, master snowman, when h, witnessed for the the first time Lieut. Ormer Locklear change from one air
 plane to another 800 feet above tht ,grandstapd at Sheepshead Bay Speed way few weeks ago. .
 Ringling thought he was paying high compliment to the famous aviator, and he was, but the fact is Locklear will make far more than $200,00O this year and for some years to come, IF his foot does not slip from the top of the plane as he stands with arms outstretched to grasp the other plane as it comes above him at 80 miles an hour speed.
 Four months ago Locklear was drawing down between $200 and $500 a month with the Government as in- structor of instructors at the aviation field near Fort Worth, Texas. AL though the now famous fellow had achieved the most amazing feat in the aviation game, he was still bound to the service and was not free to tell the world of his radical work in the air. Today he is by far the highest paid performer in the world where personal appearance earns the salary. His services are in such demand at the big fairs that he uses four sets of airplanes for his work and has them shipped on ahead, jumping from one city to another almost as fast as his airplanes glide along when he changes from one to the other.
 Locklear was engaged by the Ari- zona State fair at the greatest salary ever known in the fair business. He is to stage his plane-changing flight, "rain, shine or cyclone", as the con- tract reads, and go through with his act of climbing to all parts of the plane, standing on the upper wing at the very tip hanging by one foot from the landing chassis, hanging by one hand from a ring underneath the tip of the lower wing, standing upon the tail, and other feats that the sagacious Glenn Curtiss and Orville Wright said a few months ago were quite impos- sible.
 Locklear's work is done so low to the ground that sometimes his feet scrape the top of the judges stand as his machines fly past with him down from the end of the wing. His twow assistant pilots will stage an aeMal combat during which the machines actually "kiss" as they pass in a roll-over, Immelman turn or loop. The pilots, Lights, Elliott and Short, will also make two trick flights during which they will show all the thrilling stunts known to the flying sport. Five flights will be made each day. ,l,i.

MOONEY AMENDMENT T0 BE INTRODUCED IN THIS LEG|SLAT URE?

There will shortly be introduced into the legislature an amendment to Sec ton 1179 of the Penal Code, relating to the jurisdiction of the supreme court, giving it power to do what the su preme court of California could not do in the Mooney case. It is said that the amendment prepared by the Amer ican Federation of labor will be pro- posed to all legislatures. The Amer ican Federation took no active part in the Mooney case, that is. as an organi- zation, and it is assumed that this proposed legislation is intended to pla- cate the friends of Mooney.
 The amendment follows: Provided, however, that the supreme court shall have continuing jurisdiction over judg- ments imposing punishment for mur- der in any degree, and on the petition of the defendant upon proper showing being made that his conviction was ob- tained by testimony which has after ward been clearly shown to have been perjured, the supreme court may grant a new trial, or render any judgment or make any order which is consistent with justice and the rights of the state and the defendant"
 It is understood that this amendment will be offered by MT. Waters of Mo have county, a member of the Ameri- can Federation and formerly an or ganizer of that body.
 The Arizona legislature will be the first in which the so-called Mooney amendment will be presented

LAWYERS MN TWO IF THREE GAMES

The Merchants and Lawyers Volley- ball teams played series of 3 games Saturday. The lawyers won two ou, of three, scores 15-7, 15-13, merchants 15-2. The lineup was as follows: Merchants: CoSgins. Lane, Judson and Shedd; Lawyers: Barrows, Sanders, Christy and krampschaur.
 Judson and Lane played a very fast game for the Merchants winning the first game with a score of 15-2, but Curing the second and third games they lost confidence ip themselves and lacked team work, while the Lawyers came back strong and took the second and third games away from them with rather "easy sailing
 Barrows and Christy played a fine game for the Lawyers. Marks, Cap tain of the Lawyers was out of town and it is expected that he will be in the lineup next Saturday.
 The games between the Bankers and the Doctors were as follows: Bankers. 155 and 15-S. The Bankers team con- sisted of the following: Capt. White. Barrows, Michaels. Larson and Mace. The Doctors lineup consisted. of the following: Clark, Taggert, Templin.
 White and Nace-and Manson played a last game for the Bankers, keeping the Doctors down to a very low score in both games. Templin, Taggert and Clark played very well considering that they had men on their opponents side.
 ONeil and Button of the Doctors were absent from the team. O'Neil is a very strong player and it is hoped that they will put in an appearance next Saturday afternoon.

the final yield that year was cut

The continued hot and dry weather

Sense in Superstition.

There is often a. c0mmOn-sense rea-
son underlying what, at first sight,
seems merely a superstition. Take, for
instance, the old belief amongst col
Tiers, that a mine much frequented by
mice is a lucky mine. We know now
that mice are peculiarly susceptible to
foul gases, and the Presence of I'M
usually large numbers of these little
animals, therefore, is proof positive OF
the absence Of any danger. Hence the
