INTERESTING TALKS IN STORE 1T PICNIC

"Dairymen think they have q hard time these days says F. r. Van kir.s president of the Maricopa Dairymen's Association, speaking of he big picnic planned for May 24 at IEastlake park. He says that in the early days of Phoe- nix, competition among dairymen sup plying milk to the restaurants and oth- CT wholesale places was very keen. The creameries and condensed milk factories were not absorbing the pro- duct as they do now and local con sumption was practically the only out let for the dairymen. When feed was good as is usual in the spring, when most cows were fresh, there would be a surplus.
 He relates story of one competing dairyman that tried to get one of Vans customers away from him. The com petitor offered to furnish one restau- rant with milk for 21s cents a gallon and not send a bill for SIX months. Lat ter this competitor dalryman drowned himself in the canal, and to make the job sure, he tied d rock around hts neck.
 This is only one of many interesting "reminiscences of the pioneer dairy days which Van Kirk tells. When he responds to the welcome of Mayor Corpstein at the picnic May 24th. he will have an interesting message for the dairyman of today, for he was here when dairy conditions would have shocked even Dairy Commissioner Barr. who will speak on the subject of Clean Up and Cheer Up," and could tell f he would, some interesting things about dairies that needed to adopt bet ter methods. There are half a dozen others who will have something to say on dairy and poultry subjects at this occasion.

AND NARY
 WILL BE AT CIRCUS

The announcement made public to- day by the Salmagundi Circus com pany that Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin are to be present at the Circus, and that every one may have the op- portunity of meeting Mary, will be hailed with delight by young and old, and will be an attraction worth every effort made to attend the Circus. Char lie will personally present every guest of the circus to the famous Mary. and the management is sure that every one who meets her will be more than eager to have his friends meet her also
 Two famous animal freaks are, part of the unexcelled attractions of the Circus. One of them, a horse that ma ture played a trick upon by arranging his anatomy in a most peculiar fash ion; the other @ monstrosity known as The Sphinx, and like the real Sphinx, a creation so indescribable that he must be seen to be eomprehended at all. No other circus has ever offered these attractions to the public, and not only are they interesting in the ex-

r there is a good roads program in your locality, vote for it. Put your influence behind it and hasten the day when good roads shall be the ordinary. commonplace thing instead of the un- usual condition.
 The good reads movement IS seeing a big revival now that business is be- coming normal. The most important program thet has recently come to our attention is that Of the state Of Michi- gan which has just voted in favor of a fifty million dollar program that when carried out will place Michigan CD ;he map big so far as good roads are concerned. Everywhere else you see also more interest in good roads than in any period iE our history. It is trite 10 say that the war and it's needs taught Us the value of good roads. Perhaps t did. Perhaps ii brought home to those dull ears of higher up the supreme importance Of an intelli- gent system of navigabie highways. But more and more it comes home to the man who studies the situation that back of the good roads movement must be the ordinary man, the average man who pays taxes and votes and thinks as he votes. And the average man is 1 beginning in larger numbers to realize in his heart that the cost 10 him in taxes in infinitesimal compared to the benefits 10 himself and the community at large
 The farmer or rural dWeller. in cer- tain sections, for a long time stood in the way-he wanted the roads. but he didn't want 10 pay for them. He did not realize that in the long run 1 good roads pay for themselves out of savings made to the community in haulage Of people and merchandise. ! But the farmer today is reckoning in units of time. Yes, he realizes the value Of minutes throughout the sea- i son-and he is just as keen in con- | serving time as the citybred man who i operates q big factory; if anything, he | is a bit heener. for seasons do not wait i and crops must be sowed and culti- ! vated reaped and marketed at the right 1 time. lie has convinced himself that 1 time is money. And he knows that i snod roads save time and that they save time largely because they make ii possible to get satisfactory service from motor cars and motor trucks And he is not one bit blind to the fact [ tEat operating cost is largely influenced 1 by road conditions-that good roads make gasoline more elastic, rubber and steel more durable and bring markets nearer. and that good roads increase property values out Of all proportion tc the cost of good roads to any one indi- viduaL Therefore the farmer is now back of road improvement.
 Does the city man feel an interest ir good roads? Ask your neighbor! |

How the new home for the Phoenix ! lodge of Elks. No. 395 will loom on Adams street where it will have q frontage of 100 feet, according to ten tative plans that were submitted 10 the lodge last Thursday evening by Royal Lescher of the architects firm Of Lescher and Kibbey. The members of the lodge discussed the plans fully and will soon decide upon final plans at which time work on the clubhouse will start in earnest. l. is the intention of the lodge to have the new home com pleted this year and to be occupied by the local order.
 The cost of the new home is esH- mated at s300 coo which is exclusive of s50,000 for the furnishings. Arrange ments for the financing already are under way. There is no doubt that this big improveme1t will be an actual realization in few months.
 According to the plans submitted to the lodge last Thursday the basement of the new clubhouse is to contain swimming pool 38 by 60 feet, the most beautiful in the state and not eXcelled in the southwest. There also will be
 
 room and the heating and cooling ap- paratus.
 On the first or street floor will ba storerooms. Prominent business insti tutions of Phoenix already have spoken for these storerooms which are to be especially desirable.
 The second floor will contain the of fees of the local lodge, the library, reading room, the woman's rest room, beautifully furnished, a tea room and an elaborate club room and buffet. The kitchen is to be located on this floor and is to have capacity for serving 1,50O people. Mechanical walters will connect the kitchen with the banquet hall on the top floor.
 Sleeping rooms for members of the order will take up the entire third floor The present plans call for fl such rooms, but the lodge is contemplating adding another floor to the plans, thus making a total of SS sleeping rooms There is an active demand by members of the Eilks for living rooms in the new clubhouse. The rooms for their ac- commodation in the new home in Phoenix are to be equal to the finest l hotels.
 The fourth floor, the top one, is 1 planned to have vert high ceiling, al- | most equal to two stories. On this l floor will be the main lodge room, com mittee rooms and the banquet hall. l Either or both the banquet hall and the

Counties and states where good roads have become a steady part of a pro syessive program of legislation have seen values shoot up in the most sur prising fashion and this again has brought home the fact that good roads pay for themselves. Thus it is natural tlEat the year 1919 and 1920 will see the most stupendous good roads programs inaugurated in America that the world has ever known. This wifi result in the wider utility of motor cars and motor trucks and of course prove a big aid to the solution Of the freight traffic prosolem.
