The Food Administration

Phoenix, Jan. IA. - Contribu-
tions to the Red Cross and other
war charities aggregating $3, 184.80
have been made to date through
the enforcement division of the
food administration in Arizona, ac-
cording to an announcement made
today at state headquarters. OF
this amount 5000 was in cash,
$525 in bakery products and the
balance consisted of 1913 pounds OF
sugar. These donations were made
from time to time by concerns and
individuals who had violated the
food regulations and were allowed
to take this means of demonstrate
ing their loyalty and of proving
good faith in their promise to fol-
low out instructions in future.
Though practically all of the
former restrictions in the handling
of food have been removed, the
enforcement work is being contln-
ued as a check against profiteering
and all rules pertaining to margins
of profit are still being retained.
Just now the work of the en-
forcement division is being cen
tered in an investigation of meat
prices at Globe and Miami. Eight
other towns of the state have ef-
fected reduction in meat prices
to the consumer amounting to
from three to five cents pound,
and it is aimed to establish slnn1-
lar reduction in the Globe copper
district, or at any rate cut down
the margins of profit with the aim
of giving the producer, the dealer
and the consumer a square deal.

For some hours she was her own
mistress. She depended no longer
on the public, often as unjust in
its adulation as in it's GOODNESS.
There was a piano in the hall
where the dinner was served. The
singer went to it, opened it and ran
her fingers over the yellow ivory
keys. A shudder ran through the
instrument, as if the soul of a dead
man had reawakened. Then the
tender and passionate voice rose in
such volume that the hall suddenly
vlbrated to its furthest corners.

US conscious Of the love and the su-
preme beauty of their life, even as It
is lived in the crowded quarters of our
great metropolis.
Jerome Myers. ever searching for
beauty, wanders wherever little chill
dren are playing, whether in our own
American cities, out in the country or
in the picturesque capitals Of the Old
World. Always he seeks life and mo-
ton; life whether crushed bv sadness
or overlooking with such unquenchable
Joy that dance Is born. He gives
us something more than the eye can
grasp. In his etchings Of children
dancing on the street We feel conscious
that hand-organ man must be near by
grinding out inspiration. AS we look
at his etching Of people sitting in hot
halls listening to the music we be-
come aware Of the powerful uplifting
influence that music wields over the
lives Of workers whose days have little
Of beauty or pleasure.
ut seems amazing that Joy OK sor-
row can be expressed In q lire. that
fear or trust can look out from mans
eyes when an artist commands. A pen
Gil that cuts the surface Of a paper
with such beauty that II becomes inn
mortal, a needle that etchen q plate
with record Of truth, with delicacy or
strength. does so because the spirit
Of the artist directs. It Is impossible
for painstaking worker to copy an
etching, no matter how conscientiouslv
he struggles, for he can never endow
his stroke with the spontaneitv that
directs the artists hand as he gives
expression to his vision or strives to
follow an idea with expressive stroke.

4 S IF it were yesterday I recall
~ the evening when I suddenly
discovered that could run and
jump; and I remember that was in
toxicated by the delicious sensation
almost to the point of falling.
This must have been at about the
commencement Of my second winter.
At the sad hour of twilight was In
the dining room of my parents house.
which room had always seemed a very
vast one to me. At first was quiet,
made 80, no doubt, by the influence of
the environing darkness, for the lamp
was not yet lighted. But as the hour
for dinner approached, maid servant
came in and threw an armful of small
wood into the fireplace to reanimate
the dying fire. Immediately there was
beautiful, blight light, and the leap
ing flames illumined everything, and
waves Of light spread to the far part

qu'slto that passed through his mind
Beauty must be in mans soul
before he can recognize or rcrord +ho
beauty OF the external world. Ono
can see from the flash Of enthns;asv
III hr. Myers's eyes his zest of life. his
sense Of humor and his appreciation of
ehe nlyrlads OF small things in even the
most commonplace life that holds Some
'hlng or wonder in it. He has q per-
sonaIlty of rare charm, and it is this
charm that somehow colors his rporl,
1t is one thing to appreciate beauty
to sec humor in situations overIoo,,oa
by the average man and to chuck|e
quietly to ones self over life's nd
ventures, but it is quite another thing
TO be able to reveal through pencil
and etcher's tool that same beauty and
humor.
1t seems amazing that any one
could make black and white drawiue
or etching carry message of tender
ness, could make dead copper, wax and
biting acid bear an impression of
spirituality. Yet Mr.. Myers can do
this wonderful thing. He not only
gives the aura of happiness radiating
from the face, the rhythm of motion
IN the running OF child, but also con-
veys an impression of color. His etcb-
lngs are mover dead. One almost
fancies that color has been used in
some subtle way, SO glowing are his
drawings. This is simply because he
has caught the vital gesture or char
acteristic, to the exclusion of ali nom
essentials. His art in d way is that
of elimination. He does not waste one
stroke in recording something that
