means for meeting the problem Of do
nestle service.
The object of this course, now being
tried out in New York City, is to place
domestic service on the same dignifed
basis as clerical work. trained nursing
or other professions open to women.
The home assistant will work eight
hours day for q salary of $15 a week
She will not live in the home Of her
employer or take her meals there. She
will have an hour for luncheon, when
she can go to a restaurant or eat a
lunch which she has brought with her
just as she would were she employed
in a factory. The employer will not
address the home worker by her first
name. She will be Miss Smith or Mrs.
Brown, as the case may be.
Applicants for the course are care
fully selected, and registrants are ap-
pearing In large numbers. With the
same independence as to recreation
hours, places Of eating and living as
the factory girl, house-work has a
greater appeal, as being less monoto-
nous and more interesting work to the
average woman.

chamber work, plain sewing, care of
children, making of menus and the
washing and ironing Of light things.
Heavy work is to be done by outside

standpoint of the employee and from
that of the employer for some years.
The first commission on Household
made its report at the
fifth national convention of the Young
Women's Christian Association held in
Los Angeles, Cal, in May, 1915.
The difficulties of attracting capable
women in this field of work were laid
to the long hours, lack Of independence
in arranging recreation hours, lack of
opportunities for growth and progress
and lack of social standing.
Girls have acquired a distaste for
the conditions which govern household
work since the freedom they have ex-

ANOTHER MOVE MADE
 IN NOTED LIBEL SUIT

Possibilities in the famous legal bat tie being waged between Louis B. Whitney and the Journal-Miner Pub fishing company. ct al, of Prescott were renewed yesterday. Whitney takes exception to the tactics of the defendant and moves to strike certain parts of the amended answer filed some since by the defendants. i. e.. the Journal-Miner Publishing company and J. W. and P. R. Mines. A $100,- 900 libel action has been brought by Whitney against the paper and it's owners. The motion to strike is based on the allegation that certain parts of the amended answer are sham, ir- relevant and frivolous
 Another recent development in the action Is the disqualification of Judge R. c. Stanford of the Maricopa county superior court to act as trial judge. On affidavit of the defendants, in which prejudice and bias of the plain tiff were claimed, he retired from the bench Judge Samuel Pattee of Pima county has been decided upon as trial 5urist.

Jack Pickford at Ism.ra

There is one boy in pictures whose productions have struck popular chord of fancy throughout the coun- try with the result that the young star has risen to be looked on as one of the leading juvenile actors of the screen.
 The star in question is Jack Pick ford. appearing for the final showfngs today at the Lamara in Bill Apper- sons Boy" A romance of the hill folks of Kentucky, the plot is particularly appealing one, barring the emotions and felings of a mountain youth, who has not known a mothers care for years, but who kept her memory green in his heart His fathers marriage to another woman was the one cloud over his life, for he resented that any one should even attempt to usurp his dear mothers place. and he steadfast- ly refuses to recognize her as mother The result is an open breach between Buddy" as he is familiarity called by the mountain folk. and Bill Apperson, his father. The boy is further sad dened through the apparent wrecking of the romance which has crept into of his fathers enemies as the other party to the contract With the skill of the postmaster in depicting the role he has been assigned, Jack Jickford's portrayal will prove (. most satisfying motion picture offering, and as the drama gets under way the suspense of the production is keenly felt by all in the theater.

 As Fuckers, the torment and delight of all who knew her, Mabel Normand comes to the Columbia theater today for a two day stay in her latest pro- duction appropriately named 'The Pest" She is, by turns, rollicking and wistful and displaye degree of pathetic appeal which promises to sur prise her admirers.
 All sorts of adventures befall her, but the funniest and most dramatic of all happens when she is invited to a party given by the daughter of the country judge. Vain1y she hunts for something with which to cover up her rags and finally goes ta the party wear ing the same old sweater and thread bare overalls, with the addition of a cameo ring found among a lot of odds and ends.
 Once at the house, Blanche, the judges daughter, gives Fuckers an old dress, expecting her to make a laugh ing-stock of herself. Poor Fuckers does this unrnistakably. In the midst of the hilarity the judge notices the ring worn by the waif. It is this dis coyery that starts the solution of a strange mystery which brings about a discovery which takes Blanche from her lofty perch and completely revolu- tionizes Fuckers.
 ',The Pest" is a play which gives Mabel Normand not only every oppor- tunity to touch both extremes Of emo guises-
