NOTE HOW FRIEND SMOKES
H. Is Said Mans Character Can Be
Told by His Handling Of
His Cigar.

According to an enterprisine
American scientist a mans ehsrac-
ter can now be told from the way
he smokes cigars.
The man who smokes is easily
recognized. His lips will show it,
without his speaking. He who fixes
his cigar deeply in his mouth is
of q. nature resolute, skeptical and
abrupt; one who bites off the end
of his cigar is careless, thoughtless
or listless.
When the cutter is used to nip
off the end the smoker may be con-
sidered a man of caution. The user
of the amber holder is a delicate
person. The man who smokes his
cigar to the end is a faithful friend,
constant husband and of q perse-
vering nature.
If one is in the habit of throw
ing away the cigar when only half
smoked, he is in danger of being
considered tickle, blase and a tri-
fer.

PHOENIX TAXES LEAD
 IN NATIONAL GUARD:
 MAY GET AN ARMORY

Phoenix has jumped to the lead in state national guard activities and thereby assured itself of the first and probably the only armory to be built from the existing fund of approximate " s90. 900 available for armory pur- poses, the lead for Phoenix being an ported to the adjutant general for muster into the national guard service Of the state.
 Yuma and Clarksdale are reported almost in readiness for muster and certain to be heard from within the next few days, but the Phoenix organi- zation filed it's applicat ton with the attorney general on January 19 and thereby became the senior unit in the state.
 The armory disposition is subject to the vote of the general staff, which is required by law to consist of the ad- iutant general and four officers. of whom three shall be in the line and above the rank of first lieutenant. At present the state has an adjutant gen eral and major in commission. and no one else. The major is Dr. George $. Martin, of the United States public health service, and also in general prac- tice here. The captain of the Phoenix guard unit will be eligible to the gen eral staff and is expected to become the third member of that body, the ca sptains Of the contemplated Yuma and Clark sdale units probably filling out the list.

Circles Mile Track in 45 AS Seconds-Clips Is of a Second from Record Es- tablished by Don Johns in 1916-Many Other Fast Miles Turned

A new track record for the mile at the Arizona State fair grounds was established yesterday afternoon, when Gene Walker of the Indian motorcycle team, here to participate in the motor cycle racing program Sunday after noon circled the mile oval. in 45 4-5 seconds. He clipped one fifth of a second from the record made by Don Johns, also mounted on an Indian, in 1916.
 Walkers record breaking trial spin yesterday, together with the fast time made by other riders, assures fans a real speed event when ten of the worlds fastest motorbike riders are sent away on the 25-mile Arizona championship free for-all open next Sunday afternoon.
 Several other fast miles were turned by different riders yesterday. Tn addi- tion to his record smashing miie Walker clipped off two other miles at 46 seconds flat; Shrimp Burns. team mate. turned a mile in 46:3 sec onds; Red Parkhurst and Ralph Hep burn of the Harley Davidson team Ludlow of the Harley Davidson team turned the mile in 47. seconds flat; Jim Davis. on an Indian, made it in 47:1 seconds: Joe Walters, on an Ex- celsior. whiZzed around in 47:1 sec onds. and his team mate, Wells Ben nett. turned the mile in 47:3 seconds.

be given attention. The charge should be made to him or to Frank $. Smith, special agent of the department of jus tice. he said. and the complaints will be considered at the board meetings. It is understood that several matters of this nature will come up at Friday nights meeting which will be held at Manufacturers association in the Noll building.
 The public is urged to make the complaints specific as to what it con- siders unreasonable prices, so that prope~ investigations can be made, said MT. Henke. We are advising the public to read advertisements and talk e advantage of sales. If the dealers find the public responding to price reduc : tions, reductions will be announced more frequently and the public will benefit by the keen competition among dealers"
 Mir. Henke believes a campaign for sensible buying should be waged in order to diminish the extraVasant de- mand so that the supply might meet the demand and bring about a staba- lization of prices.
 According to the state program, MT. Henke said, the people will be urged to buy home products and save trans portat.on. They will be asked to sub
  pricec articles, cut out waste of every description. pay cash and carry, not to buy beyond their need. take proper care of clothing, mend old clothes and Go without senseless luxuries.
 T have been advised by J. H. Lang ston. assistant United States attorney, that the official fair price board is acting under orders from the federal fair price commissioner of the state and functfoning under the Lever act Mir. Henke stated. The board. there fore. has the authority to examine the books and invoices of the merchants for the purpose of ascertaining what a far price is and what a fair price margin of profit is. In Tucson, I am told. the board agreed on 75 cents hundred pounds as fair margin of profit for the wholesaler dealing in sugar, while $1.75 a hundred pounds was decided as fair margin of profit for the retailer handling sugar.
 MT. Henke announced as members Of the committees of the fair price beard on Phoenix the following:

 The adjutant general is out of the city this week, but his secretary said yesterday there is no intention of using undue power to give the armory to Phoenix.
