removing the shafts. had attached an
upright bar and on top had placed a

 MT. Rowlen said last evening that there were approximately 4500 disabled ex-service men in the state, 1900 being located in this valley. The majority, he claims are tubercular and not able to take the training according to the program. This is the problem that will be worked out as a result of the visit of the officials who plan to be in Ari- zona for several days.
 Arrangements will be made to have Mir. Lamkin make an address befoT 9 one or more of the civic organiZar lons while here. Other plans being made are for his presence and that of MT. Ricciardi at the American Legion con- vention in Globe. They will hold con ference with Governor Thomas F. Campbell, who is deeply interested in the work, and also with Dr. R. H. H. Blome, state director of vocational ed ucation, who is at the head of the re- mobilization program for men and women injured in industry in this state.
 MT. Rowlen will leave tonight for Los Angeles for a regional conference, but will return by the first of the month in time to arrange the com plete program for the visitors and wei come them to Arizona.

monia. The manager of one local ice plant valves this superstition by say ing: Do you suppose We could afford to put ammonia in ice when that fluid costs 50 cents a pound?''
 The fact is that the strong taste which often is mistaken for ammonia in ice is only brine which has leaked into the ice containers during the freezing process
 The ice for use in domestic circles is made from condensed steam, sub merged for 4S hours in a brine through which ammonia pipes are run. If or dinary water were used in this manner, the resulting ice would be white, due to impurities. This latter grade of ice is often used m refrigerator cars where coldness is the only factor to be con ydered

ICE AND THE ICEMAN
 ARE AT TIE HEIGHT
 IF POPULARITY NOW

Ice making is considered one of the fine arts in Phoenix during the sum- mer season. Ice is one staple for which the demand in summer is practically unlimited. And because of the fact that ice is used to such an extent in the preserving of foods and the preparing of cold drinks, many people in the course of their daily contact with the refrigerated balm have recourse to much speculation concerning it's man ufacture.
 One of the chief duties of an iceman is to answer the oft repeated question:: What makes this ice white. and why does it taste like ammonia?"
 The first part Of the question is easily answered and the housewife usually accepts the explanation with out objection, but the part of the ques- ton having to do with ammonia is not so easily passed on.
 Most people have an underlying be- lief that white, bubbly ice contains am

 It is the intention of the Cleveland management to engage high school boys to pull the traps, keep score, re- fierce, etc. and these boys will be taken in hand one week before the shoot and instructed in their duties daily. They will all be in uniform so that hey may be distinguished from other boys on the grounds.
 Cleveland was awarded the Grand American Handicap over Atlantic City, N. J. The seashore town wanted to stage the shoot the last week in Sep tember. This and the fact tha the committee felt that Atlantic City was too far East killed the sea shore city. How the committee arrive at the fact that Atlantic City is too far East for the big tournament is beyond us.
 Atlantic City isn't too far East to bring more than 300 shooters to the Westy Hogans. Keeping the Grand American Handicap in the same sec tion all the time isn't going to benefit the rest of the country a great deal.

In a majority of the individual contests the limit of entries. will be six men or women with but four of the entrants allowed to start.
 The American committee was in gormed that the efforts of that body to secure the Catholic preparatory school at Melle near Ghent as the res idence and training quarters of the United States team had proved un- available and so far no quarters have been selected for the two hundred ath- letes and officials who will make up the party which will sail from this city about the middle of July.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS STRONG.

New York, Feb. 1S.-RailS led an other advance of prices on the stock exchange today, speculative issues embracing the recently reorganfzed roads making relatively greater gains than the investment division.
 Increasing recognition of the changes which are to come over the country's transportation systems on their return to private operation and favorable aspects of federal legislation constituted the impelling causes of the movement.
 As for investment or gilt edged rails, traders seemed suddenly to reach the belief that they had been selling "out of line" or far below quotations justi- fled by their intrinsic or physical values.
 Gross gains of one to almost five points attended the steady accumula- ton of Pacifics. grangers, coalers and eastern trunk lines. but cotton carriers made more moderate improvement. Foremost in the rise were Canadian Pacific, Northern Pacific, Great North ern preferred, St. Louis and San Francisco first preferred. Atchison, Reading. Delaware and Hudson and New York Central
 There were substantial advances also in many industrials and special ties which featured the acute depres- sion of the two preceding days. Ral- lies of three to twelve points in such issues as Crucible Steel, General Mo- tors, oils, equipments and shippings were effected at the expense of an overconfident short interest, but these were reduced by realizing sales before the close. Sales amounted to 925,000 shares.
 Continuance Of the per cent. call money rate, further absorption of commercial paper by local and interior banks and frmer foreign exchange tendencies were among the helpful developments of the session.
 Speculative or convertible rails in the bond market kept pace with the demand for kindred shares. Liberty issues rearted slightly with steadi- ness in inter1ationals. Sales, par value were s11375 o0o

 The tournament will more than like ly be held the week following the Grand Circuit trotting races-the week of August 23.
 Cleveland intends to run a real shoot It is the ambition of those behind the tournament to make this the greatest Grand American Handicap ever held and these men know how well the shoot was handled in Dayton and at the South Shore Country Club.
 Twelve traps win be erected in Edgewater Park = twelve traps in a straight line, the first time that 12 traps were ever erected for use in the Grand American Handicap.
 We have it on good authority that the Preliminary Handicap will be re- stored to the program this year and that the 12 traps win be used in the Preliminary and Grand American { .

Handicaps. On the other days 10 traps will be used.
 The shooting will be done over the water, the same as in Chicago although the traps may be little further back nf the waters edge than they were at the South Shore Club.
 Cleveland is working on the assump- ton that if the Grand American Handicap is a success that they will be given the handicap again in 1921 and possibly 1922. Those handling the shoot are not working on the idea that this is the only time Cleveland will conduct the tournament.
 It isn't likely that the Cleveland people will bother about a Beginners Trap or a practice trap. or the other things that would go a long ways to- wards making trapshooting a bigger sport than it is; the only hing they are concern 9d in is running the tourna- ment as it appears on the program off
