EXTRA LONG WEAR
FROM SHOES

T. D. Collins of Ookala, Hawaii,
makes remarkable statement which
demonstrates the money-saving dura-
bility of Neolin Soles.
He writes, After wearing pair of
Neolin-soled shoes off and on for
thirty-three months, | wore them on
trip to the volcano of kilauea and
walked around the crater over hot lava
six times and still the soles showed
only slight signs of wear"
This experience is not accidental.
It results from the scientific process
by which Neolin Soles are made to be
exactly what soles should be-corn-
Portable, waterproof and exceedingly
economical because of the long wear
they give.
Get them on new shoes for all men,
bers of the family and have them put
on worn shoes. They are made by
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Com
pany, Akron, Ohio, who also make
Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to out
wear any other heels.

ANOTHER COPPER SHAPEDUP FOR
 IPMENT
(From Sundays naily)

Important matters are taking place affecting the Approximation Co. holdings in the Mayer field, and the installingl of all new machinery has been completed and is now in action was the statement made yesterday by Col Fred Bowler, general manager This latest equipment has been placed on Shaft No. where unwatering is under headway to the 3lG-foot level, to be finished inside of week, when sinking begins to the 500-foot level, production from the upper workings not to be disturbed.
 At Shaft No. 2 situated about 600 feet to the west of the original work ings, development also was started last Friday in sinking a second shaft and where hoist is now being in stalled, air for the new compressor to be generated from Shaft No. l.
 Of vital interest is that the ship ping of ore is now settled fact, the railroad administration at Washing ton having authorized the Franco American to proceed with building a receiving platform at Dewey, after over two months of holding up final action. At the mine a series of ore bins are now being constructed and the output will be loaded direct from the lower levels and without addi- tional expense than by hoisting. The first shipment goes to Hayden and the date set is January Is, to be fol lowed regularly, at least two cars week being freighted. Independent of production i'll the future there are over 300 tons of the first-class grade, on the dump that averages at least l9 percent in copper with a gold-sil- yer byproduct. Other matters of minor import are being closed up by this company, all conyerging into mining system that will be perfect and accelerating a broad line of prac tical mining. Col. Bowler also stated yesterday that on January l, two shifts are to be placed at work at the two shafts, and all arrangements are made for operating plans to be undis- turbed in the future.

MARKETING BIC ITEM IN DUTY
 OF HOUSEWIFE
BY INDIA ACKER Home Demonstration Agent.

Food is usually the largest item in the family expense. The housewife. who in the largest measure is re- sponsible for the family budget, should know something of the source of supply of our foods; that practi- cally all our food is produced by the farmer and stock-grower.
 She should know something of the purpose of the wholesaler and retail CT. To buy intelligently and econ Omically she should thoroughly un- derstand her needs, before going to market, know what she needs, and how much without asking the clerks advice. To learn to market well Hec- essitates frequent visits to market and care in selection. One should keep in mind that foods out of sea son are more expensive and of poor CT quality than seasonable foods which are equally as nourishing. Ev- cry kitchen equipment should in clude set of scales, which tends tC record amounts used, and aids in ar ranging a cooking time schedule.
 In buying foods i'll large amounts, which is a way of reducing the H. C. L., the keeping qualities of food should be Considered. and a proper storage place arranged. Flour, cereals sugar, and dried vegetables have ex- cellent keeping qualities if rightly stored. A case of assorted canned vegetables is much more economical in the end than buying can singly. Staples, such as soap may be pur- chased by the box at a considerable saving and without danger of spoil age.

However, it is true I was shot through the right hand, but it was a mistake, an accident in short, as a ricochet bullet did the harm. My hand has healed, and the circum- stance is stale by this time, and fur thernrore l was in no trouble at any time, but unfortunately i'll range of Yaquis and Mexicans in their lively firing.

 Spend your last dollar on prepar- ing for fight to the last We have signed the peace, but Europe is still full of mutual hatreds, even among the Allies. Until there is a genera, movement for disarmament, as I hope there soon will be, we muct trust tc the League of Nations-and keep our powder dry.
 We cannot afford to let the rife rust yet awhile, though we have z League of Nations which we hope will fructfy," he told the Nationa: Rife association. Our rifles mus, be kept well oiled, and you must be able to shoot them as in times gone by if this country is to be safe We may yet need our rifles here i, Australia"
 To the Women's Reform League Sir Joseph Cook said; Our hope mus: be ccntered in the League of Nations. I tis the one great hope Of the world. but if we cannot make it effective in the near future we had better get ready for the next war, which will otherwise come as surely as the sun rises"

STEPHENS CASE MAY AGAIN BE
 POSTPONED
(From Tuesdays DailY.)

Attorney (. B. Wilson of Flagstaff. of counsel for the defense in the case of the state against J. H. Stephens, charged with being an accessory to the killing of Robert Miller, stated that in all probability the trial will not take place at Flagstaff during the latter part of January, as has been stated. Wilson was here on legal business yesterday.
 It has been tentatively agreed that the above date be set for the present, but the order made by the Superior judge is not definite. It seems to be the wish not to interfere with the trial of other cases, civil as well as criminal, and if the time of the court is not, disturbed, the order made will be obeyed Otherwise the Stephens trial must take its place on the cal- endar for the regular term that begins in March

MRS.HAWORTHIS WELL RECEIVED
 IN CHICAGO

In the series of Twilight Musicales being given on Sundays at the Edge water Beach hotel, none has been more attractive and few so popular as the one of last Sunday when Helen Haworth presented a splendid pro- gram of sands, says the Music News" (Chicago).
 Mrs. Haworth is a young singer oi great personal beauty and the most charming of stage manners, and these assets, added to a voice of unusual power, heXibility and beauty, have within a very few months brought her prominently to the front among young Chicago singers.
 She is a contralto with full mezzo range as well and with a smoothness of scale and an ease of manipulation which are remarkable. She is fea- turing American songs on her pro- grams with great success.
 The middle group of the program was devoted to Irish songs, and this was given added color through the keen appreciation of Mrs. Haworth for this genre of song.
 The songs provided ample oppOr- tunity for the display of that very human humor and that touch of naivete so definitely possessed by MrsA Haworth.
 The audience, an unusually large one, was enthusiastic in the extreme, and the young contralto may well feel that she has added many more to her list of admirers.

PHOSPHATE FORTUNE DEVELOPED ON A
 VOLCANIC ISLAND

PAPEETE, Tahiti, Dec. 27.-The Island of Makatea, northeast of Ia hit, where operations on the rich phosphate deposits have been held up by a strike of Japanese workers, is said by scientists to be founded on a submarine volcano, gases from which developed the phosphate.
 The volcano mountain has partly erupted but has never succeeded in breaking out a flow Of lava, it is said Originally the island was a coral atoll standing at the level of the sea, a ring of limestone formation surrounding a central lagoon.
 This by volcano action has been raised and lowered several times. Now it stands a flat topped plateau, 800 feet above the level of the sea, slipping down toward the central ba- sin of the ancient lagoon.
 The action oi volcanic gases on the coral limestone, it is said has formed during the ages a deposit of rich phosphates which are now being de- vcloped by French company.
 The whole island is full of caves and hidden pitfalls. Unless the stranger follows the established path way he is likely to fall into some vegetation-hidden aperture to un- known depths.
 The phosphate deposits lay unsus- pected until about F years ago. For decades traders had had opportunity to take tracts of land on the island in payment for debts of the natives, but they considered 1t worthless.
