FATHERS TAKE SONS ID ROTARY LUNCHEON
 OR ANOTHER'S SON

Fathers and sons were in attendance at the regular Rotary club luncheon yesterday in the Y M C. A. Each ROtarian who had a son brought him. brought some other mans son, so that many of the sons yesterday had whfskers. These mingled with the sons in knee trousers. and in most cases it would have been hard indeed to say the spirit of one group was more youthful than that of the other
 Arthur G. Hulett chairman of the day, regaled the club members with a varied program, which was opened by each father introducing his son or guest. Following a toast to the sons by Chairman Hulett, Judge E. w. Lewis, speaking for the fathers, said humorously that it would appear the modern day father has duty to per form in keeping high-powered car ready for his sons use on at least four nights a week, and that the mothers duty seemed to be to write Engllsh themes for him. Bryan Akers responded on behalf of the sons, de- claring your father is your most loyal friend and your most ardent admirer. Fight for him and he will fight for you,h
 Rotarian Harry R. Minor, former secretary of the Los Angeles club, said the club there is making bid for the next international convention, of Ro- tary clubs. He urged Phoenix to as- sist Los Angeles and be there' 100 per cent strong.
 Murray Pennock of the Barnes circus now wintering at the fair grounds. was present with several other showmen, among them Colonel Little. who en- tertained the club with some free hand sketches. Mir. Pennock invited all the sons present at the luncheon to be the guests of the circus on the opening performance at the spring season Feb ruary 2s.
 Claude Decatur Jones, assistant principal of the high school and Amos A. Betts. member of the high school board of trustees, spoke in favor of the s500,000 bond issue for the erec- ton of three buildings of the high school group and for paving and other needed improvements. The election will be held next Wednesday at the high school auditorium from o'clock until o'clock, with every man and woman taxpayer in the high school district eligible to vote.
 For those who are afraid that large sum of money is going to be eX- pended on gymnasium equipment said Mir. Betts, ''I would say that less than $S0.000 will be available for the equip ment and furnishing of all three build ings, if the issue passes. So persons who are opposed to gymnasium train ing need not worry that their money will be expended in a manner con- .rary to their wishes.''

FORMER PHOENIX
 PEOPLE TO RETURN

MT. and Mrs. James Walden, who left Phoenix 16 years ago, will return to make their home here, according to the announcement made by Mrs Walden yesterday who stated that her husband has resigned from the ex- cel1ent position he holds with the Northern Pacific railroad.
 It is probable that the Waldens will not be permanently located here until spring when they will become con- nected with Montezuma Place. It is understood that MT. Walden will take over the management of the health re- sort established here several years ago by Mrs. Janet White, mother of Mrs. Walden.
 Mrs. Walden, who has been in Phoe : nix for the past fortnight, returned to the coast yesterday, but plaps to re- turn again in April. She will be joined later by Mir. Walden who will have severed his connection with the rail- road interests with which he has been connected since leaving here. He is considered an exceptionally clever rail-

Luckier than any other America n iesion post in the state the Frank Luke Iost or Phoenix now has and owns a lz-room, $3o,000 home. in a two-acre park close to the down town district with guaranteed free upkeep of the park, according to City Manager V. A. thompson who verified reports to that effect yesterday after word got around mat the keys to the place had been turned over to the representatives of the post
 The place was purchased by the city on January of this year, after the city had held an opinion thereon since November ', the purchase price being >Zo,o0o. Almost immediately afterward. according to reports. the city received an offer of $30 900 for the premises
 The place is located in the Five Points center. at Seventh avenue and Poik streets, and is known as the old Plckere0 home. The main building, located in the center of a two-acre tract Is welI-built brick structure containing 12 large rooms. The city dads are making no suggestions about now the place or grounds shall be maintained, other than that the post IS welcome to free service from the city park department in case it cares 10 maintain the park. The only string on the whole proposition is that the post shall not sell the place.
 The legion meets within the next few days to discuss plans in connec- ton with its occupancy of the new nome, no definite proposals being in shape for announcement at this time It is expected that general club fea- lures, cots for visitors, social halls, and other services of great value to the legion men will be established at once.

Celebrating the enlargement of the boys division with reception to the boys and their parents. F.. C. Reeves, secretary of the boys work depart ment of the Y- M. C. A., yesterday announced a reception on Thursday
 The enlargement of the department, which was made possible by the sue cess of the recent financial drive has given the younger members of the Y floor space equal to that of the lobby.

Old-Time Printer on Harding.

Permit me to refute certain rumors
that are gaining some credence as to
Senator Warren G.. Harding's stand
on the labor question, also to cite a
few of his characteristics as analysed
from personal observation.
1t has been rumored that he is. on
record as having said that $3.50 day
is sufficient compensation for any
laboring man. Having been in his
employ many years ago, I can con-
scientiously refute such a charge. He
was paying me, on piece work, an
average of $3.50 per day and, mind
you, each one Of those "John Dollars"
had the ear marks of the dollars Of
our dads-worth one hundred cents
per dollar. In those days one could
purchase sugar at from ~ to 5 cents
per pound, prices fuctuating accord
ing to the prospects of a fruit crop.
And beef-great guns and little fishes

would almost shed tears if the Gus

of liver as hand out in the bargain.
Now what is our dollar worth? All
the way from II to IS cents, unham-
pered profteering and licensed de-
struction Of commodities in order to
enhance price raising, etc.
While working for Mr.. Harding I
boarded in Marion and kept family
of five at Redwood, Union county
Ohio. It was my method of economy
to remain in Marion two weeks at a
time thereby saving one round trip

a fourth of barrel of flour in those

MANAGED DRAGON BY WIRE
Idea for the Direction Of lmpor-
tant Stage "Property."

Our Chinese friends would be inter-
ested to learn of the way foreign dew
ils'' control dragons.
In one of the operas produced at the
Metropolitan Opera house in New
York the inside of the dragon, which is
made of canvas and papier-mache, con-
sists of two small boys, who are sup
posed to guide the beasts movements
in accordance with the music. They
are rarely equal to doing that correct
~, even after rehearsal. A recent per-
Torrance is stated to have been given
without single stage rehearsal, since
no time could be found for the prepa-
ration Of the opera. It was, therefore,
more than ever necessary to have the
occupants Of the dragons inside kept
up to their business. The stage mana
ger decided to install telephone in
the beast. 1t connected with the opera
house switchboard. On one end was
the stage manager, and at the other
were two receivers strapped to the
heads Of the two boys, who received
from moment to moment directions as
to what they should do. The dragon
under the circumstances covered HIM
self with glory.

ness in particular. 1t is occupied sole
ly with plans for putting a presidential
ticket in the field. It has no organiza-
ton as to congress, and no time in
which to form one. So even if it
should enjoy the phenomenal luck Of
electing it's presidential ticket it could
do no business in the way of legisla-
ton. Neither a republican nor dem
ocratic congress would act in accord
ance with the recommendations of any
man who had entered the white house
with such instructions as the third
party will issue.
All things inspire the hope that the
party succeeding in November may be
entirely successful-may win both the
presidency and the congress. The
country's affairs need action, and an
executive of one party and a legisla-
tive body Of another party would
either delay action or make such ac-
ton as might be taken Of hybrid
nature unequal to the demands

tions Of the country and found the
Russian peasants an ignorant but
kindly mass who only want their lands
and the right to live and tilt the soil.
They know nothing of the soviet's war
on Poland. Many appeared not to
know Lenine and Trotsky. Most of
the peasants admitted that they were
in worse straits than ever before, and
said they would welcome any govern
ment that does not conscript their Ia
Dor or take their crops for paper that
is worthless.
The gist of the delegations conc1u-
sions is that the soviet form of govern
ment involves more evils than the sort
of government it seeks to destroy.
But the allies, in opposing it, are only
furthering its aims and giving it the
means of national uni6cation. Expert
ence of power is altering the soviet's
theories of government, and in the
course of time it will reach the point
from which it started.-Minneapolis

Foch on the Poles.

Speaking at Spa to an American in
terviewer, Marshal Foch said:
II am too old to believe in military
adventures such as theirs. Young
nations find it difficult to restrain their
activities, and l think that is the case
with Poland. My counsel has always
been one Of prudence.
''The Poles should have begun by
consolidating the internal life of their
country; then they could have turned
to external problems, Despite my
reputation Of being an imperialist, I
do not sympathize with expeditions of
conquest, and, of course, that is what
the Polish campaign started out to be.
"The Poles ought to choose a line of
great natural strength which they
could defend. They must marshal
their armies there, conforming to that
line and making their last stand there
"The Poles started out to go to Mos
cow" Marshall Foch added smilingly
and tapped his head, as much as to
say that only lunatics would have at
tempted such venture.

Russia" he said. cit is easy to enter
Russia, but one comes out faster thar
one goes in."-Des Moines Register.

for expected arrivals in The family.
True, these l:ycttcs constitute form
of preparedness that is essential to
the welfare of the country, but it is
ha-dly military in character. In an
other camp where large surplus stocks
were stored number CT cases labeled
"woolen socks" were opened, only to
disclose tho feet that instead of the
homely but useful articles SO welcome
to the doug:.boy in cold weather they
contained fine silk hosiery, suitable
neither in size nor texture for the SOL
der, and equally unsuitable for the
women engaged in canteon or other
rough work near the trent. Other
cases, according to the ccbled reports,
contained handsome ribbo2ed night
robes and silk underwear.
Americans :.rn told taat these dis
covcries arc amusing" TO those who
made them. TIE stocks were sold rs
they stood, without being inventoried.
Their character was disclosed when the
French officials, not willing to buy "a
pig in poke" undertook the task Of
making thorough invoice Of the pur-
chase. The presence of articles of
wearing apparel SO completely at vari-
ance with the service Shey were de-
signed to equip may be considered a
good joke by those who found them,
but Americans who contributed money
in patriotic zeal for the support of the
army will not relish the jest. What
excuse can be made for the presence of
such articles in France through the cx-
pcnditures Of army funds? Who was
responsible for this wanton waste of
money and this gross neglect of in
spection Washington Post.
The men who are responsible for

be some kin to the efficient individuals

The Next Congress.

The republican program embraces a
vigorous fight for continued control on
Capitol hill. Mr.. Harding in the white
house would have but limited power
without republican congress to work
with. So the republican managers are
laying their plans for another senate
and house. Their hold on the present
senate is extremely slender. In the
house they are well fixed as to num-
bers.
The democrats, Of course, are alive
to the same necessity. Gov. Cox in
the white house facing a republican
congress would have small chance to
realize. on his election. In many
things his hands would be tied. So
the democratic managers are giving
attention to their party's congressional
needs and asking for the strongest
nominations possible.
The third party movement, which
has many weaknesses, has this weak
