BANKHEAD HIGHWAY
 ROUTED BY PHOENIX

At the meeting Of the Bankhead Highway association at Birmingham. Alabama, yesterday the highway was conditionally routed from Lordsburg. New Mexico, to which town it had already been located, via Chandler and Phoenix. That condition. however, is that the road in this county must be completed by the way of the Antelope Bridge to the Yuma line. There was also routed d road from Lordsburg to Roosevelt, to be known as the Roose- welt branch.
 It was reported some weeks ago that the directors of the association had agreed upon a routing via Tucson, thence direct to Yuma. There appears to have been no foundation for that report.
 One of the directors of the associa- tion for. Arizona. Mayor T. G. Heating of Florence, went to the meeting with the intention of securing the routing through Phoenix by the way of Flor ence, and that has been accomplished It was the belief of MT. Heating that pr. Baker of Tucson, another of the directors. would raise no objection to that route, since ii would leave Tucson on it. Nor was objection expected 1srom the third director, who lives in Bisbee.

ALBANIA isysi $ FREE For First Time in History No
 Invader TreaJs Her Soil.
Fought for Centuries f,gainst Both Turk and Christian to Gain
 Tier Independence.

Scutari, Albania.-With the with draWal of Italian troops from Avlona and the cessation of hostile invasions Dy the Serbs and Montenegrins, AL bania is free of foreign occupation for the first time in her turbulent history. Albanians feel that they have at last reached the goal of their national in- dependence. Their undying love of liberty, which has persisted through all their centuries of struggle against Turk and Christian, is particularly quick and hopeful today. The. people hope that the great powers will pro- tect them from future designs on the part of selfish foreign countries.
 Perhaps never before was there such a state of tranquility within the borders of the little Albanian state. In the streets of Scutari one sees the Albanian colors displayed for the first time, and listens to patriotic demon strations by local groups of citizens and societies. Enthusiasm and patri- 0tic fervor are at high pitch. Even the native tribes, who usually are en- gagged in factional combat among them selves, are living in a state of peace. This peace is based upon nothing more than word of honor given with the approval of the people between two or more chiefs.
 The Albanian's word, which he calls "bessa," is absolutely binding. It is customary for families within tribe, for tribes and for large groups of tribes, to arrange between themselves "bessa"-that is, an agreement by which all matters of personal ven- geance are suspended for given length of time.
 Except in a few communities in thel south. the Albanians live in tribal or ganizations, where each man defends his home and his rights with his rifle which he never lays down when out of doors. They are governed by sort of common law, which is known as the law of Lek. Lek was a more or less traditional law-giver of the once pow. erful family of Dukadjini.

JAP GOVERNOR FOR 700 ISLES
South Sea Group to Have Execytive and Thorough System of Admin
 istration.

Tokyo.-The TOO islands of varying size in the South Sea group for which Japan obtained mandatory rights at the peace conference will have a Jap anese governor and thorough system of administration.
 The governor at present will remain under the direction of the navy, which has been in control of the islands since their acquisition five years ago. It is possible that later all connections be- tween the navy and the islands will he severed.
 The League of Nations council in November is expected to work out a detailed scheme for the application of the principle of trusteeship by which Japan retains her control.
 The idea involved in enlarging the scope of civil administration Is to es- tablish three distinct administrative sections of domestic affairs, colonial affairs and police affairs.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"CIGAR."

A N D M B K K of prominent 4 N etymol0gists, among them Littre, have endeavored to prove the word "cigar" is derived from the Spanish cigarra, meaning grasshopper, and that it was applied to the rolled leaves of tobacco by reason of their simi- larity in shape to the body of this insect. This explanation, while ingenious, hardly fits the facts in the case, for when to- bacco was first introduced into Spain from Cuba. it was grown In gardens or cigarrales, as the Spanish call them.
 The wealthier Spaniards had a fad of raising tobacco in their cigarraleS and making their own cigars, which they would proffer with the explanation "Es de mi cigarral" ("It is from my gar den" as proof that the tobacco was wholesome and home grOwn). Before long the express sion changed to "Este cigarro es al mi cigarral," which might be literally translated, This gar den product from my garden" and 1t was from this that the word "cigar" originated.
 However, in the final analysis, the grasshopper does have something to do with it-for the Spanish "cigarral" or garden" Is so-called because 1t is the place where the grasshopper .("cigarra') resides.

[astNight' sDreanls What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM ABOUT sHEEP7

KE OST dreams of rural life and MI country scenes appear to be re- garded by the authorities of Dream land as favorable omens. To dream of seeing flock of sheep for instance, Is very good indication for the fu- ture. To be surrounded by them in- creases the good luck and a flock of lambs foretells even more good luck than a flock of sheep. But just to gaze upon flock of sheep feeding in the pastures of your dreams means that you will have success In life.
 If you are unmarried and dream that you are watching the little lamb- kins skip about, your sweetheart is faithful and of good disposition. Also, if you are man, the lady of your choice is inclined to say Yes" if you will but pop the question. If you are married and see sheen or lambs in the visions of your slumbers you will have. children who will ac- quire riches and be great comfort to you. If you pick up a lamb and carry it in your dreams you will be lucky person indeed.
 If a sailor dreams of sheep it means great luck and a safe and prosperous voyage to him. If you see yourself shearing sheep it is an indication that you will shortly make money by business enterprise, though, accord ing to some of the wiseacres, it means that you will have to struggle hard for this success. But it isn't good to see the sheep running away from you, for that indicates that some of your pretended friends are really trying to injure you. It is warning to be on your guard. Also it is a bad sign to hear the lambs baa or to see them killed. If you see your flock of dream sheep lean and scraggy look out for your investments carefully If you would profit by them.
 With the few exceptions noted the lambs and muttons of Dreamland are much to be desired and come far cheaper than In the markets of tho world of actualities, the food profiteer not as yet having obtained foothold in the realm of shadows.

JOB AND YOUR HEALTH

TS A WOMAN as strong as a man? A Given the same stature and weight can she do equally hard work and not suffer for it?
 Among many other matters that the war proved or disproved, this seems also to be settled-and settled in the negative. She can'tl
 Woman can do the sane work, given a like training. But she breaks down under it where the man remains un- injured.
 In France and England women for nve years did the work of men. They have not stood up under the strain as men do. In England, physicians re- ports show that of two thousand five hundred women examined in one in- dustry, 42 per cent were found to be suffering from severe physical exhaus- tien or actual i'll health, brought on by overwork. Yet men stood up under the same work without difficulty.
 We are none of us likely to go into intuition factories or to undertake heavy labor. But there is more in this than the fact that a woman ought not to attempt such feats. A girl who is looking about for a job ought to think of it in regard to herself-in regard to her health. The nervous and high-strung girl should not take up telephoning, for instance, nor should she go into large and noisy office. She won't stand the strain.
 A girl I knew who made success of a small tea and lunch room got ambitious and took the whole house She rented rooms and served dinner as well as breakfast and lunch. She gave good meals and good service, had a large force of assistants to manage. and In six months she broke down and had to go to a sanitarium.
 Whats the use?
 Your health is priceless. And once shaken, 1t isn't easy to get into good shape again. Look at your health as part of your capital, and conserve it. Never let your job borrow from that capital There are times when you cannot control the thing, and when you do you must do the best you can and hope to get through with 1t. But most of us are just careless. It doesn't pay.

CHOLERA INCREASES IN CHINA
Troop Movements Blamed for Worst Condition in Twenty Years, Says
 Professor Dye.

New York.-As a result of the ire quent movements of Chinese troops in Szechuan province, West China, chol- era has spread more extensively re- gently than in the last 20 years.
 This is the opinion of Prof. Daniel s. Dye of West China Union univer- sity, expressed in a letter to Rev. W. k. Taylor, a representative of the American Baptist Foreign Mission so- ciety in China, now on furlough here.
 The disease has caused great rav- ages in Tungchwan, Chungking and Chengtu, as well as many of the small CT villages.
 Americans and Europeans are vir- tually immune, Professor Dye said, due largely to precautions in prepara- ton of food and in the matter of hy- giene.
