GLENDALE HI TEAMS
 MIN FROM FLORENCE

GLENDALE, Dec. 13-The Glendale High school was not very successful in it's first trip away from home in the class ''B" basketball conference. The teams left Glen 1ale early Friday morn ing for Casa Grande to play the high school team there. The boys had blood in their eye as some two weeks ago when the Casa Grande team was here the visitors won by a small margin. However when the game was over the score stood 35 to 20 in favor of the southside boys. Saturday, stung by de- feat at the hands of Casa Grande, they journeyed over to Florence and again they went down to defeat, this time the score being 2S to IA in favor of Flor ence.
 The two defeats the boys suffered was too much fo rthe girls as by a pretty exhibition of basketball they de- feated the Florence girls by a score of 16 to Il. This makes the Glendale girls the champions of the class "B' league as they haven't last game, and the prospects are that in the games to come they will come through with a clean slate. By the double defeat suf- fered by the boys this puts them out of the running for the championship

IMPROVEMENT IN
 COT TON MAR r
 SEEN BY BOSTON
Chamber of Commerce In
 Eastern City Declares
 There Are Clear Signs That Worst Of Trouble Has Been Left Behind Says Public Still Has Plenty Of Buying Power

gradual improvement in cotton marketing conditions is forecast by the Boston chamber of commerce, speak ing from one of the biggest cotton markets in the United States. A long article, dealing with the situation, past, present and future, appears in the cur rent issue of Current Affairs" the weekly publication of the Boston chamber. It follows, in part:
 While conditions in the cotton mar ket do not show any pronounced or definite change for the better in either general or financial lines. there is an unmistal1able wave of sentiment which is steadily gaining ground that the worst has been left behind. Indeed
 this cannot be wondered at when it is realized that since mid summer spot cotton in New York has declined from 43.75 to 1850 cents a, pound, or nearly 65 per cent Put it another way, a bale of cotton costing $21S.75 in July is now worth but $77.50. This is defla- tion with a vengeance. The extent to which cotton deflation has progressed becomes increasingly apparent when viewed from the producers standpoint.
 "This years crop was the most cost l lv crop ever raised. The generally ac- l cepted cost is between 25 and 30 cents a pound Although some cotton stu dents believe that the staple has never | sold in proper line with the cost of production, it is undisputed that the present relation is unprecedented.
 That the belief that the cotton de- cline is over, or nearly so is not pure l ly a mental one to be disputed by facts and figures is shown, by the strength in silver and the steadiness in the foreign exchanges. The supply of freight cars | is much better and a surplus is re-
 ported in the South and Central West Although there has been a slight
 reaction in print cloths from the lowest price reached since 1917 sales have | been so small and have not been par | ticipated in by any of the larger print CTS that the trade is not inclined to place much importance upon the rise Nevertheless it has given rise to the opinion that 7ls cents is likely to be
 very near the low price, if not ac- tually such The fact that such a low
 price fails to bring forth better buy ing is believed to be due to an i'm pression among the trade that there is
 a sufficient supply of gray cloth and that until buying starts in on finished goods it makes little difference what the price is for gray cloths.
 '"The geratest weakness in merchan- dising channels today continues to be the retail situation There is yet no clear evidence that the retailer has any intention of liquidating until after the new year, at the earliest. It is be- ing amply demonstrated every day that there is still a great buying power to be found in. the public, once it is satisfied that honest reductions are offered"

DECREASE IN FARM

 BYCOTTON GROWERS

MESA, Dec. 13-A decrease in wages for farm labor to $2 and $2.50 per day was endorsed by the Mesa Cotton Growers association at a meeting held Saturday night and the proposition will be presented by the Mesa dele gate, c. c.

Two dollars per day for ordi- nary farm labor and 50 cents extra for teamsters and irrigation men, is the rate to be recommended. It is planned to make the reduction effective as soon as possible.

ld<Greece Is
In Style Note

Paris designers are using ever so
many Greek effects in dresses, writes
a prominent fashion correspondent.
The romantic morganatic marriage of
the young king of Greece and his June
visit to his bride, living in Paris, set
the French dressmakers to thinking Of
the beautiful possibilities for fall fash
ions in the native Greek costume, both
ancient and modern, the result being a
decided Greek note in the autumn col
lections.
The wife of the king Of Greece, who
is very beautiful, and her younger sis
ter, equally lovely, wear charming Pa
risian clothes. The youth and beauty
of these two girls plus the royal ro-
nance of one of them appeal to the
creative genius of the Paris dress
maker and milliner, consequently "a
la Grecque," will be very fashionable
in Paris. AS there is so much of real
merit in Greek inspiration, one may ex-
pect many lovely things during the
coming winter.
Designers Turn to Greece.
Greece is only one of the many coun-
tries to which designers have turned
for their inspiration. Makers Of
clothes appear loath to give up any
successful idea that has been brought
out recently, and we find the old min
gled with the new.
The Egyptian influence is still felt,
as is the Italian Renaissance. To
Persia have dressmakers turned for
embroideries and to Russia for loose,
baggy sleeves and blousing bodices as
well as embroideries. Truly, we have
an unusual mixture of fashions. Span
ish styles have not relinquished their
hold. Many ideas are still gathered
from the picturesque costumes of
Spain.
There are several things, however,
upon which all agree-the slender ST.
houette, the more somber colors for
day time wear-black. browns ard
grays leading-and, striking contrast
to these, brilliant hues for the evening
They agree, too, in the tendency to-
ward the high collar, long sleeve and
the unevenness of skirts at the hem
which tends to make them more grace
full. All of these points are brought
out in every collection. The collec
tions are being constantly augmented
and we may expect a great many in
teresting developments from the nu
merous ideas already advanced.
Dresses that fit in with the present
day fashions may be made by usint
| the forms of the ancient Greek cos
tunes with few changes. In an inter
esting frock we see the straight Greel
dress of about the Sixth century. TIL
! embroideries are exact copies of thos
used on an old Greek costume. In tn
sleeve lies the only real change in tn
design. A medium shade of tan duve
| tyn is used for this frock and the en-
broideries are in beautiful shades 0
brown. A narrow belt of brown leatt
er girdles it.
Model of Mousseline.
An interesting model is developed i
coral mousseline de sole and gol
cloth, with coral chains forming a gil
die and shoulder straps. 1t will be RI
called that the ancient Greek militar
dress showed plaits and even that {

and gold, the latter forming the en-
broidery and bands on the skirt and
on the jacket. A big double looped
sash at one side is seemingly a con.
tinuation Of the crepe bodice.
Autumn Models Have PIaits.
Any number of the smartest models
for autumn have plaits. Coats, suits
and frocks fresh from their recent
voyage from Paris show plaits of every
kind and description, which indicates
that it is impossible to go too far with
this trimming to please women.
One of the most extreme uses of
plaits for the new season appears on
a model suit developed in beautiful
crepe Roman. Black, is the color Sc
lected for this suit, the coat of which
is very long and slightly blousing at
low waistline. The sleeves are
loose and cut in one with the garment
