Carolina. Last year 12 factories cp- resented by Mir. Brabant used 4O0u bales of Pima cotton, and he says that they found it very satisfactory.
 Speaking Of the industry here, NIT. Brabant said that there are two essen tials to the success of it. One is the dcvising of a marketing system and the other is tho maintenance of the highest standard. The latter must be accomplished by the process of selec- ton by which the wonderful Pima cot ton Of this valley. which is known throughout the world. has been devel- oped within the last few years. But, said Mir Brabant. this process must be kept up with unceasing vigilance.
 As to the French market for high grade cotton. Mir. Brabant said that that would depend upon several fac tors; one is the coming back" of French industries and the other is a rectification of the exchange situation by which France is at present severe ly handicapped. But he believes that the latter will shortly be adjusted and he has no doubt of the ability or France to right itself
 The French people have proved al- ways in the past their ability to re- cover from any stroke of fortune. how ever grievous. and he is sure that they will do so this time The new French government said Mir. Brabant. is particularly strong one. An important factor for the remedying of the eN change situation has already devel- oped. as was shown by a recent gov ernment statement that the country will now be able to sustain itself with the importation of but little foodstufr. lt will he unnecessary to import wheat, which in the past has constituted about one third of the food imports.
 Speaking again of high grade cot ton. Mir. Brabant believes that other localities will be sought for it's pro- duction, though at present there is but limited area of the earth's esurface for it. At least. an effort will he made to replace the deficiency caused by the practical failure of Sea Island cotton in consequence of the ravages of boil weevil.

Toft,s Countrx Club.

All Phoenix is in accord when people say that the automobile parties staged at Toft's Country club were phenom- enal successes, the most popular ever known in Phoenix The decorations were a fitting background for the great event of the week. the motor classic at the state fair grounds. Hundreds of tires adorned the walls and the famous Toft collection of racing pictures inter ested the revelers. Inserted in the cir cle afforded by the tires were some very clever advertising features.
 Each night the combination of har- mony seems to have increased it's won derful collection of dance specials and the Toft band played with rare vim and vigor And again tonight the same soft. dreamy strains will carry away the dancing folk of Phoenix.

women in business have, according to an executive of a company in New York that employs hundreds of both sexes. He b ames the home woman for the failure of office women to advance faster than they generally do and TOT the fact that women executives arc d rarity.
 Most executives are married men, and there are mighty few married men who would dare talk 10 a woman in his employ for the same length of time he would give to man explaining details of business. No matter how trustfui wife is she cannot believe that It IS business. ana I will say in this connec- ton that manv wives have reason to be suspicious if the employe is good looking.
 The result is that a young woman does not get the advantage of the ac- quaintanceship and friendly relations with her executive that a young man does and therefore her capabilities are never discovered except by accident. When a promotion comes it goes to a man who tfe executive knows can fill the job. where there may be many women in the same department that are more capable. although the boss doesn't know that and hasn't any way of finding out. especially if he is married"
 The slight transgression of the atti- tude which this executive gives as the safe one for married man to pursue is committed by the hero of Marshall Neilan's latest production, Don't Ever Marry The innocent complica- tions which result are but a part of the humor with which the production abounds. "Iiont Ever Marry" will be the attraction at-the Columbia theater today and tomorrow.

It is a love story replete with terrific action, many hair raising stunts. astonishing feats Of roping and horsemanship and, above all. the magnetic personality of Neal Hart, who graces the picture in excellent manner.
 Neal Hart. having been reared in the life of a cowpuncher, gives to his DOT trayals a naturalness not reached by any other star appearing in western studies. This fact is, perhaps. respon sible for the popularity he has at tained in a short time. as motion pie ture careers gre measured.
