The novel, "The Substance of His House" from which J. Stuart Black tons greatest superfeature, "A House Divided" starring Herbert Rawlinson has been adapted, was written by Ruth Holt. This big offering will be shown at the Columbia theater today and Saturday.
 Few attractions of recent years have carried greater universal appeal than does this offering, truly one ol the big cinema achievements of re- cent months. It is an offering that combines every requisite of master photoplay production.
 One of the most important settings in "A House Divided" is a cottage ir the French town of Belleau. This cot tage was constructed in the Blacktor studios in Brooklyn of brick and plas- ter from photographs of cottage which stood in Belleau before the Ger mans beseiged the town. After the peace-time scenes concerning this cot tage were filmed by Commodore

HAYDEN THINKS TIE
 SOLDIER SETTLEMENT BILL BEST CHANCE NOW

If the Soldiers Settlement Bill" now before Congress passes both houses it looks as though there is a chance for quick action will be taken in bringing about the construction of the San Carlos dam. The following letter was received from Carl Hay den by Tom Maddock. state engineer, the communication arriving in Phoenix last Wednesday:
 Dear Tom-I enclose letter that have just received from the Com missioner of Indian Affairs, in re- ply to my letter urging that an engineer from the Indian Office be detailed to assist you in determin ing the location of the bridge across the Gila on the San Carlos reservation. Mir. Sells is quite cor rect in saying that Congressional action is necessary before the San Carlos can be constructed. The one best bet in that respect is the passage of the Soldiers Settlement Bill which has been favorably re- ported to the house of which enclose a copy. If this bill becomes law the Secretary of the Interior can then consider the advisability of undertaking the construction of the San Carlos project. I shall have a talk with MT. Sells within the next few days and bring this phase of the situation to his at tention.
 Yours very sincerly,
 CARL HAYDEN.

MOTOR CAR TAX MUST .N0W BE PAID BEFORE LICENSE |S ISSUED

A circular issued by Secretary of State Simms will be of interest and profit to the automobile owner. It refers to the three amendments made by the last legislature to the motor vehicle law and which went into ef- feet June l2. The first amendment provides that before the secretary Of state may issue a license and deliver a number plate to an applicant the latter must have certificate from the assessor of his county showing that the personal property tax on his car or other vehicle has been paid for the current year or is secured by real estate in such county.
 Another amendment requires that one driving an automobile or truck on a state highway must use the full arm signal to indicate whether he is turn ing to the right or left at an inter section. On enclosed motor cars an automatic signal must be used when it is not possible to use the arm signal.
 A third amendment divides the li- cense year into quarterly periods so that one applying for a license be- tween January 1 and March 31 must pay the full annual license, and those applying for license after the last named date must pay for the unex- pired quarters of the year.
 The requirements of the previous payment of the property tax appears not to have been generally understood so that many persons who have ap- piled for licenses have ben obliged to wait until certificates could be pro- cured from their assessors. It is stated that all these certificates are now ready in the offices of the as- sessors, so that applicants for licenses may save themselves a great deal of time by procuring them before making application for the license.

Among the evidences of the great in terest taken in the San Carlos dam project in Florence might be cited the special edition that Editor Andrew Wren" got out of the Arizona Blade

 Across the top of the front page in big type was the official slogan of the day LETS BUILD THE SAN CAR LOS STORAGE DAM NOW" Then followed articles on the meeting it. self, a complete story on the road pro- gram of the county, story boosting for more building in the town, the of ficial program, and many other cred itable features. commenting on the

that purpose. as were the observa- ton planes used in the army, the photographer has his work cut out for him.
 To begin with, there is the speed of the plane, moving at from 40 to 70 miles an hour. Add to the wind ere ated by the forward movement, the backwash of the propeller. and yo,l have about a hundred mile an hour gale to contend with.
 Now take the heavy camera, grasp it tightly in both hands, put it out over the side in that gale of wind, turn it down toward the ground and locate what you want in the picture, focus it sharply on the ground glass, and press the release. Your picture is made, all right, but both arms are tired holding the box in the wind, and you have instant doubts as to whether your shutter speed has accounted for the speed of the travelling plane, doubts that the camera was held steadily enough, all sorts of doubts

CACTUS SHOP" HAS
 UNIQUE PRODUCTS

F. E. White of Florence, proprietor of the Cactus Shop, bears the distinc- tion of running the "only shop of it's kind" in the world. As it's name i'm plies, its business is confined to tho production and sale of articles made of cactus wood, and the unique dis play of these wares Is both interesting and beautiful. Tables, photo frames, picture. frames, smoking sets, glove boxes, and other things useful and ornamental are shown, and have found great favor especially among the tourists.
 MT. White says there are ten thou sand acres of cactus in Pinal county. and while heretofore ha has manu- factured on small scale, it is his intention to erect suitable machinery and turn his novel products out in much larger quantities to meet the h. creasing demand.
 Cactus woods are of many varieties, and it's structure is unique, unusual and very attractive.
