Seeking a Bargain

Even the ice man has his troubles in these days of discontent. In de- livering ice to a certain woman of cratic temperament the other day he found the refrigerator clogged with milk bottles, an assortment of canned goods and fresh vegetables, which he patiently removed in order to make room for the fifteen-cen chunk of ice that had been ordered.
 Just as he managed to fit the cake into the box the customer appeared on the scene, looked at the size of the piece of ice which had been delivered and demanded to know whether she had received a full fifteen cents worth of the cold stuff. When the ice man assured her she had received full value he was met with the statement;
 T get that much for dime at the ice plant
 Perhaps you do" amiably agreed the deliverer of frozen water. but the company can offord to give more ice at the plant than when they go to the expense of delivery service"
 Well if that's the case. just take that ice out Of there When the ice man compiled with the demand the woman called to her boy:
 Jack. here is fifteen cents. You go over to the ice plant and get a dimes worth of ice, You can keeI the nickel for your trouble"

Tha Whx of ths shootina

Was 1t Paul who prescribed for Titus a little wine for the stomach's sake, or was it Titus who advised the ascetic Paul? Anyway, it makes no difference; it was accepted by a Phoe- nix resident as sufficient Biblical authority, and there is none higher, for providing a little wine for personal and family use, in spite or the prohibition law and enforcement agents. Why are they, that they should set them selves up against an apostolic injunc- tion?
 He filled twenty four bottles with the juice of carefully selected grapes. corked them tightly and tied the corks in with cord which he believed to be of sufficient tensile strength. The bot ties were set away in an outbuilding and left to the operations of time.
 few days later his wife heard pistol shot, and immediately Carlo, the family dog, ran around the house, startled. Then there was another shot and another. and Carlo in his continued flight emitted a howl. The lady of the | house sprang to the telephone. called up her husband and shrieked. Some body's trying to shoot CarIol" The citizen dropped the business in hand and hurried home. arriving there in time to hear the echo of the last pistol shot. Not one of them had | touched a hair of Carlo. The citizen visited the outhuilding and ascertained l the source of the fusilade. Then he treasured his wife: Its all right. 1 honey: Carlos safe; the ammunition is all gone. There isn't a darned bottle l left

He Bouqht the Wrono House

Recently man and his family ar rived from the east to spend the win ter in Phoenix, but were unable to rent a place. After many weary hours spent in looking for a house. he reached a decision that the only way to secure shelter of the size they desired was to buy one. Having come to this conclu- sion, he sought the aid of a real estate concern
 representative of the real estate company took him over the town showing him the various places for sale. None suited however, until they came to a house on West Adams street. The customer was impressed when he saw the house and after gaining en- trance with a key the agent had, they gave the house the "once over" The man saw that the house was a bar gain and the wife and daughter liked it, so he made the first payment and arranged the deal.
 The family moved in at once, glad to get out of the hotel into a place of their l own. A few days later the new owner of the house was working on his auto, which stood at the side of the house
 A lady from the next house came out and engaged him in conversation. She seemed to be very inquisitive and wanted to know all about his pur-

>es, It,s The Same Old Phoenix

In an address before one of the civic bodies the other day, Mir. Russell Freeman devoted himself to the miracle of Phoenix. Said he in substance: sevVe who have been here through the developu1ent of Phoenix can hardly bring ourselves to realize what has taken place. It all seems dream like. We wonder whether we will not awake and find the structure fallen apart. I often find myself wondering whether it is true. I shut my eyes and think of the Phoenix I saw when l came here: [ open tkem and gaze around me. It is not the same place, it is not Phoe- nix I walk about town and my walk often takes me down into the vicinity of the railroad station. and then it all comes back to me. Yes, this is Phoe- nix after all.
 There are a few swing landmorlls which recall the Phoenix of old. Now, there. for instance are the ancient street cars and the ancient service. They link the struggling, bustling Phoenix of today with the Phoenix of the past. Let any Phoenician who is getting to feel a little chesty over his town or one who like Mir. Freeman is in doubt, stand along one of the rail- way racks for a short time, Sometimes he has to wait a long time.) And then it all comes back to him. Yes, this is the Phoenix he used to know; it could be no other town in the civilized world
