STORES GENERALLY
 TO CLOSE UNTIL NOON ON GEN. PERSH|NG DAY

The majority of the stores and other business places in Phoenix will close Friday morning. the Merchants and Manufacturers association announced yesterday following expression of opinion of the members of the board of governors of the association. The American Legion. the Elks and others interested directly in the reception to General Pershing had proposed that the business places close only part the parade and the meeting at the city hall plaza. Charles B. Christy, sec- retary of the association. said, how ever, that places closing will do so for the entire morning. opening for busi- ness at noon. This will give every body an opportunity to see the parade and attend the meeting at the plaza without being pressed for time.
 In its effort to secure 8 representa- tive gathering of women at the Per- shing reception and luncheon at the Womans club at noon Friday the Red Cross committee announced yester- day that there was available enough tickets to accommodate all who wish to attend. As explained, while the func- ton will be given by the Red Cross members of all other patriotic organ izations, well as all patriotic women who are not members of any organization. are invited. This in- cludes the wives and women relatives of soldiers. The tickets are 75 cents each. General Pershing will speak for 10 minutes following the luncheon.
 All women living outside Phoenix who wish to attend the luncheon and reception to General Pershing at the Woman's club Friday noon are asked by the committee to send in their res- ervations and 75 cents for tickets so that they will reach headquarters in the chamber of commerce at Phoenix not later than 10 o'clock Thursday or appear in person before that hour. No tickets will be sold at the door.

UNITE IN
 URG|NGL LAWS ID GET
 THEM BIGGER SALARY

The high cost of living came in for g. good healthy knock at the hands of teachers in Arizona yesterday when they discussed with Governor Thomas E. Campbell the need of immediate legislation to provide pedagogues with a living remuneration for. their service. A committee representing normal school teachers and the Arizona School masters club met with the governor in his office to explain why the chief executive should include within his call for the special session legislation de- signed to bring financial relief to their profession.
 Two concrete proposals were sub mitted. The first. by representatives of normal school teachers, provided for an emergency relief fund appropriation by the legislature. from which fund in creases could be made to salaries. The schcolmasters, however, suggested leg islation providing a state appropria- tion of $20 for each child of school age in the different districts of the state, the fund thus secured to be added to teachers salaries.
 The teachers also suggested a change to teachers, which would tend to raise the standard of qualification. Petitions asking flat appropriation of $1,000,0 900 to provide increased sal aries for teachers are now in general circuls ton in Arizona and will be pre- scented to Governor Campbell before the weeks end. They also request that he include the matter within his call for an extraordinary legislative session, according to F. R. Milnes, secretary to the governor.
 Hundreds of signatures already have been secured to these petitions, de- clares Mir. Mines. Those fostering the movement-primarily persons inter- ested in the states educational pro- gram-are endeavoring to secure as many signatures as possible before pre- senting the matter to the governor for consideration, he declared.

KID GLOVES GET THE
 GOATHERD'S GOATS

Before the World War the United States was importing more than $3O, 000,00 worth of goat skins and Kid gloves each year. Most of these came from Brazil, Russia, Germany and Mexico.
 But in the past years there has sprung up in the Salt River Valley and other sections. large business in raising goats and kids for gloves.
 Glove making in the United States dates from 1760 when Sir William Johnson came over from Perth, bring ing with him several makers of gloves. They settled in Fulton county. New York, and this section still continues to be the center of the industry in the United States. The skins are pre- pared by a special process before be- ing cut by the glove maker. The ma terial is very elastic and it takes long practice to become an expert cutter. Formerly shears were used to cut out the several pieces, but now steel dies are employed. When they arc sewed by hand the parts are put between jaws serrated with fine saw teeth setting an even mat for the stitching. The sewing machine has largely done away with the old methods. The la bor is highly specialized. After the buttons are attached and the backs embroidered the glove is drawn over metal forms shaped like a hand and which are heated internally by steam. This smoothes and shapes the glove before it is wrapped and packed.
 The ladies in England began wear ing gloves as ornament in the thirteenth century. They were of ever it remained for Queen Elizabeth to set the fashion in the sixteenth century when she began wearing rich ly jewelled and embroidered gloves.
