 Every meal is prepared with full knowledge and regard to the proper balancing of food values, so that one will have really nourishing meal as well as one that is tempting to the palate. Miss Anson and Miss Wilson are experts in this line. and as this is not their first venture in the tea room work. they came to Phoenix thoroughly understanding the require ments of the tea room guest.
 And does 1t not seem a trifie peculiar to be having out door picnics at this time of the year? It does to me. But here. where there is so much sunshine, out of door pfcnics seem to be just as popular in November as they are in the middle of the summer in other places. And so the Ranch House Is making a speciality of preparing picnic luncheons and will prepare for you a tempting, luncheon attractively packed in a basket for as many guests as you may want. This again. is a feature that appeals to those who are not in their own homes, as we'll as to those whose time is SC filled that to plan and pre-

Very often filler used in daily newspapers has some interesting his tory. A filler" we might advise the uninitiated, is bit of printed matter of varying interest, to be used in fill ing up the voids in the columns after the daily run of news has been spread over the page.
 Recently the Republican carried a two-inch filler on the subject of high brows, lowbrows and the several de- grees of brows in between these ex- tremes. The stuff was credited to the Chicago Tribune.
 It so happens that three years ago, when we were chasing news for the Gazette, we clipped this squib on prows from B. L. ITS Line O Type or Two and turned it over to Chapin Hall, who

Tale of Things To Eat And Lovely Gifts Is The Sub feet For Today

Once again have dined at the hancn House. and found 1t even more charm ing and attractive. if possible, than II was the first time that l was there. Perhaps the dignity lent by the DOWNS of Egyptian lotus and the tiny, dainty, little statuettes that I saw the moment that I entered the door entered their plt os charm and color to the place. For they are new, having only very re- cently arrived from the Desmond studios. The bright little figures, each with their clever coloring, have been placed throughout the rooms and may be purchased by any who may wish them And there are many who know that the little figures are just what is needed to add the last bit of bright color to a room. And so they find a ready sale wherever they can be se- cured In the larger California cities, as well as in the eftSt, one is almost sure to find one of the Desmond art products in the hall the library or in the living room of every home. One may have them in bowls with adorable baby frogs, to match book ends in clever patterns or night lamps and other articles, well as Hazel Hindoo and Magnolia, whose baskets makt convenient ash trays for miladys bou- doir.

League May Probe

LONDON--A queer rumor has gained currency that when the league of na- tions assembly meets at Geneva ques- tions will be raised as to the great size of Japans naval estimates.
 It is hard to guess what nation would do this.
 Great Britain is Japan's ally. France is chiefly interested in German Rus sian problems. Italy is occupied with Adriatic matters Holland as a great East Indian power probably is interest ed in the growing size of Japan's navy. but 1t is not believed she will dare raise the question.
 The fact IS. the covenant gives no one the right to raise it. Article says the league members recognize that the maintenance of peace requires the re-

 Those of you who have been guests at the Ranch House probably were charmed with the dainty hand colored salt and pepper holders, and the flower pots that stand on each taDle' And so you may be interested in knowing that Miss Anson and Miss Wilson have compiled with a request made of them recently and have sent to the state fair an exhibit of these very same dainty table things. as well as a number of their handmade doilies and curtains great deal or the daintiness of the Ranch House tea rooms is given by the qutnt little flower pots. filled with perky bright ! colored little bouquets. and by the i clever hand colored little salt and l pepper shakers.

TALK OF THE NEIeHRoRHoop

Quite bit of scandal turned up in the neighborhood t'other day. as the neighbors look at it.
 It seems assthough the Riggs family that's not their real name but we'll call them Riggs-weIl, the Riggses have grown short staple cotton in the south for nigh on to thirty years. Grew it, cultivated it, picked it and all that. Riggs himself even operated a gin for years, and so what that family doesn't know about short staple cotton in all it's horrible :orms, could be hidden un- der a thimble.
 Well, after getting into this country and handling this long staple cotton and running up against this ginning proposition, the Riggeses began to do some thinking along these lines:
 How comeNrhat this short staple cot ton will third itselr' in ginning, that is, you can get a 500-pound bale of lint , from 1,500 pounds of seed cotton, and this long starae stuff takes 1,So0 pounds of seed cotton to make a 500-pound bale of lint? The long staple lint is supposed to be a heavier lint and the seed is smaller than that of the short staple.
 And to settle the question and still the wicked rumors that floated around the supper table, Mother Riggs had the boys bring in a pound of long staple seed cotton. It took her four nights working after the supper dishes were washed to separate the seed from the lint by hand. She did her own gin- ming; did it carefully in her own apron so as to lose no ingredient. And when it was done she sent it to a drug store in town to be weighed. The propor- tions were like this: one-t third lint and two- thirds seed. There was neglig- able of trash-hardly three penny weights.
 Now, what the Rigges and the whole neighborhood want to know is: why do the local gins take 1900 pounds of seed cotton from the rancher to be ginned and then turn lack to him a 50o-pound bale of lint? Desn't this experiment of Mrs. Riggs prove that the rancher ought to get a 500-pound bale out oi only 1,500 pounds of seed cotton Where does the extra 300 pounds go to hey? Answer that if you can?
 And another thing
 Mrs Riggs got a letter from hel sister in Texas just the other day, il which she said they were getting theil cotton ginned there for sS a bale. Ant they were getting 1t picked for s2 ; hundred pounds. Why do we out her, have to pay S26 a bale to have ou cotton ginned, when the machinery t do it is just about the same as tha back In Texas2
 And the neighbors have asked us al these frightful questions, and hay asked us for the answers. But durne' if we know anything about it. An' furthermore, they told us, if we wer

WHEELS WITHIN WHEELS

Traffic regulations are funny critters as rule. Take, for example, Johnny Montgomery's regulation for traffic to the fair grounds which permits only for hire" md "officiaP' cars to use McDoweH road either coming or going. It is by far the most efficient avenue of approach to the grounds for autos. Yet it is turned over to the use of a handful of cars while the public is in vited to chase itself over the second choice roads. But, as we have observed, traffic rules are funny things.
 Pursuing this fascinating line of thought up another blind alley, the first duty of the autoist is to obey i'm plicitly the orders of the traffic cop. The autoist learns from experience with traffic cops in cities that it never pays to dispute the mandates of the cop whose business it Is to regulate the flow of traffic. There have been auto ists who started in to show tho world that no traffic cop could make monkeys out of them in public, but when they got through they raised their right hand and took the oath to be gooG dogs thereafter. They learned that it were far better to err on the side of dis cretion when it comes to the traffic cop. If he flaks you down for some infringement of the rules. just bite your lip and listen while he speaks his
 little piece. Don't try to argue. explain,
