GERTRUDE PARISH IS NEW ENTERTAINER TO
 BE SEEN AT PEACOCK

Manager Walter Willis Powell has again reached out over the continent and brought to the Peacock an enter tainer of international reputation, Ger trude Madeline Parish. A product of the west, Miss Parish has developed her unusual talent by studying under recognized artists abroad and gaining practical experience under noted mu- sical directors of the east.
 Opening at the Peacock last Friday night with a bright new repertoire ot songs, Miss Parish won immediate ap proval from patrons of the dance hall beautiful and distinguished herself by her attractive appearance and melodi- ous appealing voice.
 Miss Parish has worked her way to a place of prominence in the amuse ment world by>her own efforts and un- der the handicap of parental objection. Leaving the dull monotony of her studies in school, Miss Parish accept ed the offer of the manager of the Butler hotel in Seattle, Wash, to en- certain the guests of that noted hostel ry with her wonderful voice. After gaining a high reputation at the Butler hotel, offers began to come to her from every direction, and finally she accept ed an engagement at the Coliseum the ater Later she went to New York where she was one of the feature en- tertainers at Rector's where she at tracIeu the attention or the SnuDefIS. This big theatrical firm has offered Miss Parish a contract for next seaso-~ and under present arrangements she will remain at the Peacock until called to New York in September for re hearsals with one of the new musical comedies.
 Immediately before coming to the Peacock Miss Parish was prima donna with the Roy Claire Musical Comedy company playing permanently al Sac ramento, Cal. Prior to this she had appeared in the same line of parts with the Empress Stock company at Van couver, B. C.

ONE SINGLE SCENE IF. HEARTS OF W0RLD" REHEARSED 127 TIMES

When Hearts of the World" is shown for the first time at the Plaza theater there will be few in the audi ence who will realize that one single scene of this master production was rehearsed exactly 127 times before David Wark Griffith called "Camera."
 Many will think that scene requir- ing so many rehearsals must be quite magnificent. a kind of panoramic spec tacle like the massive groupings in The Birth of a Nation" or "Intoler- ance," Griffith's two former produc- tions. Contrary to this, the scene upon which so much time was spent, is neither elaborate nor magnificent, and still every one who sees it will realize why so much time was consumed on it and why the great director attached so much importance to it.
 It is said on good authority that for two years MT Griffith planned to get the particular expression he sought from the faces of the talented juve- nile players, Lillian Gish and Robert Harron. Untold or unwarned, prob ably nobody would single out this one scene as the work of nearly two years, yet everybody will note the express sions of reverence on the faces of the two players as Mir. Harron slips the band of gold the slim finger of. Miss Gish and looking upward. says:
 1T We are taken, God VIII know that we died man and wife,"
 It would of course be unfair to say that this one scene stands out among all the rest in such a production as Hearts of the World for the simple reason that there are many hundreds of equally paiHstakingly prepared scenes, each one measured by the un- erring and critical eye of this master producer.
 David Warl1 Griffith, who is by all odds the David Belasco of the motion picture world, goes about his work just as an artist bent upon painting a mas terpiece, surveys each fresh daub of paint to get his effect. The aggregate effect determines the masterpiece.

FORN EXCHANGE I OR HANDLING IF PIMA COTTON
Only the Long Staple Will Be Handled by New Or ganization to Which 34 Members from Arizona and California Belong

With the buying and selling Of Pima long staple cotton it's business. the Pa cItlc Cotton exchange has been organ lzed in Los Angeles. Among the 34 members elected to active and asso- clate membership are included many Of the leading bankers, cotton buyers, merchants and brokers of Phoenix Los Angeles, Yuma, Fresno, Blythe, Braw- ley and New Orleans. The organiza- ton will embrace the states Of Arizona and California
 The directors of the exchange, at a meeting in Los Angeles Tuesday. April 6. decided definitely that contracts for the buying and selling of Pima long staple cotton will be for 25 bales, or l2,500 pounds, instead Of 100 bales. or 3O,O00 pounds, as is required in New York and New Orleans. No cotton with a staple less than one and one-half

 Fills Long Need
 It is the opinion that a long needed want in this territory will be supplied by this corporation. since it is of de- cided advantage to many industries IL will enable the grower to estimate the tentative amount he should receive for his crop: it will bring the buyer and seller closer together; it means in creased business for the broker in commissions; it means a benefit to cot will be able to hedge their purchases of long staple cotton, thus eliminating the gambling feature heretofore con nected with buying this type of cotton.
 It is comparatively safe to estimate a production of 100000 bales in Ari- zona and California within the next three to five years. With such an in- dustry this institution bids fair to rival the fonc- established exchanges of the east and the souths
 The Pacific Cotton exchange per fected it's organization last week at an enthusiastic and interesting meeting The constitution and bylaws were adopted and the following officers were elected until October. at which time the regular election for the sea- son will be held:
 Officers of Exchange
 President. T. W. McDeVitt of the California Cotton and Factorage com pany.
 Vice president, NJ c. Scott of George Fl. McFaddin and Brother.
 Treasurer. K. NJ. Turner of Turner, Kuhn & Fraser.
 Temporary secretary. R. c. Rowland 0f CaleXico.

All these are men of practical ex- perience as cotton planters and Iner- chants
 The corporation has no capital and is a non profit institution. the purposes for which it is formed being to provide and maintain suitable rooms for a cot ton and commercial exchange; to ad- just controversies between its mem bers; to establish just and equitable rules and regulations and standards for classification and weights of cotton, and for just and equitable principles to govern all transactions connected with the risk incident thereto; to exert the proper influence to secure the pass age and enactment of the proper laws regulating the cotton trade and indus try in the states in which any of it's members reside

dogs here is about 40 a month, due
to automobile accidents, he stated,
and this number is increasing an
nually. "
Increased demand for. the better
breeds Of dogs is expected to have a
coun%teracting influence. So great ia
this demand that the humane society
has found 1t necessary to exterminate
only a. small percentage of the dogs
1t has .impounded. Last year 1921
dogs were AIKEN up by the society for
failure to pay licenses on the part of
their owners. and of this number less
than 800 were killed. These were
only the diseased, aged or otherwise
useless animals.
The humane society kennels here
are a distributing point for nearby
parts Of Canada, Idaho and Washing
