VA RVETS GET FLASH
 IF FAST MAT MATCH

Some idea of the swift work prom ised tomorrow night at the w. o. w. wrestling match at Arcadia Hall be- tween Jack Wood and Gus Pappas was given some score of members of the Great War Veterans association last night when Wood put on fast and interesting mat exhibition for the benefit of the returned service men. According to the boys who saw the exhibition, the match tomorrow night will be a corker if Wood keeps up the speed he showed last night.
 Final preparations for the w. o. W. benefit match came yesterday with the arrival of Pappas from Fl Paso. Pappas had been in rigid training and looked remarkably fit yesterday, as did Wood, who has been in training in the Y. NJ. C. A. with local product, which he has been training. This instruction has brought to light some promising material, some of which will be seen in the preliminaries to the big match tomorrow night. and has caused a great deal of interest among younger local sport fans.
 From the sale of seats for tomorrow night, the Wood-Pappas bout will be the biggest thing of it's kind ever seen here. War veterans and business men alike are backing it, while the Wood men of the World will of course turn out almost enmasse.
 Both wrestlers have practically ended their training for the match Pappas is doing only light work now, and Wood also is keeping in trim Both men seem in the best of condi- tion and very well matched, and both seem confident of victory.

@,s[ heater ELKS ANNUAL SHOW
 |S B|G SUCCESS ON
 THE OPENING NIGHT

Every year the Elks minstrel show has taken credit for being the best per formance in the history of local anna teur affairs but last evenings cabaret minstrel was deserving of being rated the best beyond all comparison.
 It was the first time annual event was ever given undes the direction of woman, and Miss Giorgia Mintz is de- serving of the enthusiastic apprecia- tion given the first of three, perform ances by the capacity house. It was she who directed the show which was lacking in all the distressing features of home talent" production. There were no long waits, no awkward mo- ments there was nothing in fact to in dicate it was an amateur attraction eX- cept for the fact that the actors were known to- those who made up the audience
 The show this year is in the form of a cabaret which gave excellent oppor- ! tunity for clever numbers to be intro duced and needed no story to keep the play together The Elks theater never l had a more attractive setting than the New Pussy Foot Cafe presided over by Dr. George Blair.
 The chorus was the prettiest and best trained that Phoenix has seen in many day-youth and beauty and voices combined to invite encore and after encore and the response only brought more applause. Every number was worthy of special mention from the first until the finale with it's patriotic appeal that literally won those who had witnessed the most satisfactory play of the winter.
 It is difficult to single out any par | hut dnd pr, I the walters and they met the respon- sibility so admirably that they can not be overlooked. William "Shanty'' O'Malley. C. M. Carpenter Paul Bowen Louis Hart, Fred A. Davis and A. w
 Sandige played the part and came out of their parts now and then to con tribute bit more to the fun. This was especially true when OMalley repeated the Oriental Dance" after it had been brilliantly executed by Miss Hartman Miss Ida Mae Coke was delightful , in song number and made a very
 fetching appearance. her Around Hel
 Neck She Wears Yellow Ribbon" was one of the hits of the evening. Mrs. Charles J. McElroy's Come Or , Papa was another well r4eeived mum. Der and the speciality by Mrs. Condi scored decidedly.

TRACTOR ID SHOW OFF AND ID PREPARE TRACK

Under the auspices of the o. $. Stapley company, an International tractor will prepare a fine track on the Phoenix high school athletic field today for use by the boys who soon will be out for track training.
 A track has been greatly needed by the local high school. but as there was not enough money in the treasury of the athletic association to have one prepared, it was decided to see MT. Stapley, who they knew to be a man of public spirit and a booster of the high school. and try to get him to give tractor demonstration on the field, and at the same time blow and har- row @ track.
 Mir. Stapley agreed to do this, so to- day at 10 o'clock, one of his tractors will be at work. The general public is invited by the high school to be present and witness the demonstration

Daylight Saving Plan Goes
 . Into Effect Again This Year According to Feder- 5 al Law Passed Last Year

7 Some 30,O00 people in Phoenix and some 1OO,OO0,O0O in the United States are going to lose just one hour of sleep next Sunday morning, and just about the same number of people are going to have just one extra hour of daylight next Sunday and every day this sum- mer to devote to gardening, sport ~eading, or anything they desire.
 At 2 o'clock next Sunday morning, Greenwich. sun, moon and everything else that is supposed to measure time IS going to have to stand aside as the Daylight Saving law goes into effect pnce more.
 At o'clock next Sunday morning all timepieces must be turned ahead one hour. That is. one instant it is , o'clock and the next instant it is , o'clock The federal law putting into effect the daylight saving plan again this year does not say one must stay up until 2 o'clock Sunday morning to change the clock around, but it does say that the time must change and ehange Sunday morning.
 Makes Biz Gain
 But that one hour that every one will lose next Sunday morning will be amply made up for with the 210 extra hours of sunlight that everybody will enjoy for the next 210 days. And when the time is up and the clocks set back again everybody will gain one hour anyway and make things even.
 Little has been said this year about the daylight saving" plan, which at lracted so much attention last year in war times. But the law proved SC worth while in 1918 that it is going into sffect again this year, 1919, just the same, by government order.
 . The vast majority of clocks, oi course, will be turned ahead one hour Sunday, either before or just after people go to sleep or get up as ths Case may be- but no doubt there will be many who sit up just for the fun ot losing an hour and being able for once 10 defy old Father Time. The change will be lucky, however, for those who work nights, as they will have to worl one hour less.
 Chance to Work in Gardens
 The people who will appreciate tn. change in time will be those who worl during the day and only have an hou or two of sunlight left for themselve when they get through. for they vii gain just one hour of light each da, after Sunday. To one who works til
 or 6 o'clock at night an extra hou of light is not to be despised. for man games of tennis or much garden wor can be done in an hour.

RENEW DRIVE FOR
 WAR STAMP SALES
Crawford Johnson, Former State Director, Calls Upon
 People to Buy Them

The campaign to renew interest in War Savings Stamps will be started this week. The sale of these government se- curities has not been pushed recently on account of other campaigns that were engaging the attention of the people.
 Crawford Johnson, state director for the Alabama War Savings organization for the year 1918, states that he cannot too strongly endorse the War Savings campaign for 1919. He calls especial at tention to the fact that State Director Crowders forces will, commencing Mon day, June 2, put a team of trained or ganizers in the Birmingham district for the purpose of forming War Savings so- cieties and procuring agents for the sale of the stamps.
 Mir Johnson points out that the Treas ury Department at Washington regards the War Savings society feature as the most important one connected with the work. Mir Johnson states that he is in- formed that in the Ninth Federal tor Minneapolis, Minn) Reserve district 100o War Savings societies per day are be- ing organized. The government this year has decided to build fundamentally and puts the campaign on the high plane of sensible saving and sensible spending, it hoping to teach the people thrift and economy by systematic and regular buy ing of War Savings stamps.
 MT. Johnson calls attention to the fact that nearly 100000 people in the state Of Alabama were purchasers of Wal Savings Stamps in 1918 and states thai if it had not been for the epidemic oi influenza coming on us in the fall oi last year the good state of Alabama would have far exceeded the record i made in sales of War Savings Stamps In the face of obstacles of every kint the sales for Alabama for 1918 amounted to sl3,oo00O0 in round figures.
 The active aid and cooperation of al good citizens is earnestly solicited anf hoped for.
