Nora said nothing. Her midnight

ON BLUE LAWS.

ON DAO IL III " -
COME bimbos are trying to start
- the war all over again by ex-
cavating the old Sunday Blue Laws
to wish on the populace. The blue
laws were in vogue when the only
excitement on Sunday was Indian
golf. That meant to tee off the scalp
/ brokers with a gun and put EN- in
the hole in par.
But times have twisted up to these
home brew days. The old blue laws
now would meet with about as much
approval as benevolent fund for
destitute landlords. We've got a
double-barreled blue law now with
the income tax. With the blue laws
hung on this village, Sunday would
be a fine day for all growing things,
except humans.
Citizens would have to quit the
snore solo to answer the coffee and
roll call at a. m. Everybody
would have to wear their face at

Nine o'clock came and Mr.. Serb
Bile Scratch rang the bell for every
body to come to order, but still Bud
wasn't in his seat.
Mr.. Scribble Scratch looked over
his glasses. Anyone seen Bud?"
he asked. No one had.
Nearly everybody shivered, for you
must know, my dears, that dreadful
thing had happened. Quite lot of
heavy overcoats, beauties, had come
to Meadow Grove Land from the Fai-
ry Queens Palace, for the days were
frosty and sharp, and they were sure
to get frostier and sharper with the
coming of Thanksgiving. Now these
overcoats, like so many things that
come from fairies, were hardly no.

2 TABLESPOONS lard.

Ia teaspoon SAIL
1-2 teaspoon baking powder.
Ice water.
The lard and butter should be
very cold. Mix dry ingredients
thoroughly. Rub shortening into

ture looks like coarse corn meal. Add
water, kneading lightly. Use as little
water as possible, Just enough to
make the doUrh. Roll on a Toured
board to about one-fourth inch thick
ness, keeping the shape round. Put
in Toured pie pan and bake in a
moderate oven. The crust should be
pricked with a fork to keep it from
drawing out of shape during the bak-
ing. Let cool before using.
Make a n,eringe of t2e waites of
2 eggs and 6 TABLESPOONS sugar. The
meringue must be made with a whisk
beaten. B at the whites TIL stiff and
dry and then beat in the sugar ia
blespoonful at a time. When ready
for dessert fill the pie crust with ice
cream, plain vanilla or chocolate. The
crust should lie deem enough to hold
about an inch layer of cream and
leave half an inch for the meringue
Spread the meringue evenly over the
ice cream covering it tightly. Put in
very hot oven or under the broiler
/ for 2 or minutes to brown the top
Serve at once. This dessert re-

and the lovely indies, fleecy as silk,
and they wanted 'em; and Farmer

happened to Bud Beaver.

YUMA QUEEN OF DESERT HAS GROWN PROSPEROUS
 BEYOND WILDEST DREAMS
BY COL. B. F. FLY

Not many years ago Yuma the butt and ridicule toads GIa monsters and it's tribe of Yuma Indians being invariably referred the place where the soldier died went to hell and insisted returning to Yuma for his blanket, leaving the inference that Yuma hotter than hell'
 But that dozen years more ago. Things have greatly changed since the completion of the States reclamation service cost of approximately $9 OOO 900. Since then Yuma has grown by leaps and bounds. It's inhabitants longer object to having the community referred to the hottest place this side of hades They have learned to make capital out of that fact They don't call hot weather when the mercury hovers the 115 to 120 mark They simply call that growing weather for with abundance of the best m
 gating the United States, with soil pronounced equal to better than the lands of the valley of the Nile they put the together and succeed in raising the great est crops per acre of any known lands in the United States This is vouchsafed by the records furnished by the government Therefore Yumaites quite content with their climatic conditions
Arizona republican., 1920-01-15

the one place where the man they are looking for is sure to be found. Yuma is a real mans town. Nat urally with 50,000 acres of the best land in the United States under culti- vation and yielding enormous crops
 the men who are working that land have right to feel they are juStifyine
 their existence. They feel successful
 and prosperous and they look that
 way. They don't dress up in Yuma
 They wear their working clothes and
 they take pride in them, for it is a community of working people. The
 drone has hard time finding a place to while away the hours in Yuma. If
 he gets in the way he is stepped on: ii he goes around the corner to shady
 nook to rest he is bounced upon by some hustling rancher and offered a job so quickly it makes his head swim.
 He simply can't exist that is all there is to it. Rley won't let him remain idle.
 Yuma is surrounded with wonderful possibilities, chief of which is the Yuma Mesa, containing 47,500 acres Of ~frostless land" The Mesa is the coming thing in Yuma. In one day the government sold at auction over a million dollars worth of land on that section of the anatomy of the country. It has been a long fight to get the Mesa under water and the battle isn't over yet, but the end is in view and some day the finest orange, grape fruit and lemon groves in the United States will be flourishing there.
 Think of it, they grow oranges on that Mesa which sell for S6 a box while California oranges are selling for s. They grow grapefruit up there so sweet it is not necessary to put sugar on them. And the frost has never vis- ited the Yuma Mesa. One old settler when asked why nature had never con- descended to send Jack Frost up there for a visit replied that The Lord only knows why, and we don't care" So fertile is the soil of the Yuma Mesa that orange trees three years old are bearing.
 In addition to the Yuma Mesa, the town is surrounded with 50.e00 acres in the valley all under cultivation and enormous crops As matter of fact one bale Of cotton to the acre is commonplace and two bales have been raised in some sections where ex- treme care was taken. Then there is the Antelope valley and Mohawk val ley, the Palomas valley and q number of other smaller tracts which will con- tribute to the prosperity Of Yuma.
 The end is not in sight down there Tn fact the beginning Of the end can not be seen. They dent want to see 1t. They are satisfied with the pres ent of course, but they know they are going to be better satisfied with the future.
 They welcome visitors in Yuma. They want the world to. know what wonderful place it is And the visitors are coming too. It isn't every day that hotel accommodations can be obtained. and quite a few disappointed people sleep other places than in a hotel room, but relief will come some day.

Loaded down with enthusiastic Phoenix business men and citizens Salt River valley residents, ranchers and rooters, the Sunshine Excursion under the auspices of the Phoenix chamber of commerce was already to pull out at o'clock this morning from the Arizona Eastern depot for Yuma.
 Tn. the pocket of Train Marshal James c. Dobbins reposes a, written guarantee that Yuma will give S1O.OOO if the sun does not shine there all day today.
 The big fire whistle at the city water works will burst forth at o'clock as a signal to the excursionists to make a mad rush for the train. They will not have to get their breakfast before leaving home at that early hour. for there is d dining car on the train, and breakfast will be served shortly after the train leaves the station.
 Two trained ponies and two danc- ing horses donated by the Al c. Barnes circus and d troupe of performers will accompany the excursion as an enter tainment feature of the Yuma visit. There are to be acts put on during she trip to the border city. and after the arrival of the train at Yuma high class circus performance will be presented. This is the first time on

characteristics of Yuma and the answer would be approx
 imately as stated above.
 How peculiar. No it is
 ridiculous that one of the
 livest towns in the state, un-
 doubtedly the livest for it's size, with a larger per capi- -ta deposit in the banks than any other town in the state should have such a reputa- ton. Why it only takes five minutes after the Southern Pacific has left one behind to realize that Yuma is a living, breathing commun- ity, seething with industry and ambition, with wide paved streets, modern schools, good looking homes, an up to date commercial club, and above all things the wonderful Yuma Valley is right there close by, with its tremendous crops of al- falfa and cotton.
 It doesn't take long to realize those things. It takes but a few minutes to become aware that there is something about Y um a which gets under the skin. Perhaps it is the constant industry which is mani fested on every side. Yuma is no place for a leisurely rest. The spirit of work is imbibed on either side. Throngs of ranchers are in the town all day long. They are coming and going on everywhere. They bring thousands of dollars of trade to the town every "A hours. They don't shoulder you off the sidewalk, even though there are enough of them to do so. One simply steps aside as Q silent tribute to the men who are doing things.
 Take for instance the hotel Hobbies. They are the busiest places in town. Practically every one visits at least one of them during the day bent on business. Just a few minutes observa- ton and one soon realizes that more land is sold or traded there than any where else in the valley. The ranchers gather there as if by common consent. It $ the open forum of the town and
