Power developed from such storage would aid to an almost infinite degree the indus try and commerce of the entire south west. Mines could be opened up, water sources that are as yet untapped could be opened. and the use of steam in industrial and transportation purposes would be supplanted by that of elec- tricity.

FLORENCE PHOENIX
 STAGE WINS FAVOR

Florence and Phoenix are finding many interests in common. This Is be- ing brought out by the heavy patron age accorded the new stage line which was opened between the two cities by the Union Auto Transportation com pany the first of this week
 we didn't realize that passenger traffic between the two cities would be so heavy" P. F. Buetke, an official of the stage company said last night Capacity loads have marked the ar rival and departure of nearly every stage we have sent over the new line The service is not only attracting the commercial traveller but sight-seers form great percentage of the pa tronage. They are finding much to in terest them from a scenic point of view and the roads are in such good condi- ton that every minute of the trip can be thoroughly enjoyed"

Davis that he might confer with delegates from pub lie organizations, civic and otherwise, in the states which are interested in the development of irrigation and power potentialities of the Colorado river, and a, great part of the discus sions during the meeting had to do with the proposed Boulder Canyon dam
 Mir. Griffen brought with him the in- formation that fund of $60, 900 is now available for research work concerning the land to be irrigated by the waters of the river, the cost, and any other details.

 Possibilities Gigantic
 These possibilities are beyond com putation. The Colorado river is one of the great streams of the world. Dur ing flood times it carries a quantity of water which, if stored in the channel which it has cut through the great plateau of northern Arizona. would.

Strand


 There appeared in the Saturday Evening Post some months ago story from the pen of Dom Byrne- It was styled "A Prodigal in Utopia" and it lifted the scab of red propaganda to revead the festered sore on the body polite.
 It was clothed in a garb of purest love. It told of young man and a young woman who loved. Then it re- vealed the mgr wandering away from his Americanism through the baleful influences of a band of labor agita- tors, at heart reds of the vilest type.
 How this boy, fired by the she-devil who led the destroyers, sank to depths that threatened to engulf not only him. self but his sweetheart and his family, is best told in Dangerous Hours," at the Strand today and Saturday.
 Urged on by the demonic cunning of this woman who advocated that her sex be bred like cattle to prevent the mating of people of culture and refine ment, to prevent, so she said, the per petuation of the race of land owners, the boy almost fell into the trap set for honest American worhingmen. But like many other Americans temporar- fly led away in the heat of passion, he came back and floored the reds like rats in a trap. He sunk the iron of truth into them and drove them into their rat holes to rescue his girl, and awakened others to the true state of his birthland-
 It's the most gripping love story since the days of Cleopatra and with it's half savage touch of the power crazed reds who seek to kill all that want to live clean and uphold their governments. it is a real novelty in film achievement.
