BARBER SHOP BILL |S
 VETOED BY GOVERNOR

Because of the fact that many of the communities of the state would be un- able to comply with the provisions Of the bill, Governor Thomas E. Camp bell yesterday vetoed senate bill 100 re- quiring the installation of hot running water in barber shops. He explains his action in message transmitted to the secretary of state as follows: This bill is presumed to be in the interests of public health and sanitation and as a preventative against contagious dis eases. If every community in this state had the convenience of a water system whereby the mandatory provision for the use of running water, as set forth in section 1 of said bill, could be com piled with, I would not hesitate to af- fix my signature and thus evidence my approval of such a measure. On the contrary, there are so many communi- ties within this state which now en- joy the convenience of barber shops, which could not comply with the pro- visions of this bill, that it is my opin- ion that the greatest service would be to the citizens so accommodated, rather than to the possible danger of con- tracting contagious diseases"

Plans already are under way for the annual sweet pea exhibit of the Wo- mans club, which will be held April 19, according to the committee having the arrangements in charge. A canvass to determine the condition and quality of peas grown this year has been made and it is understood that a great many. other than club members, have planted sweet peas this season with a view of entering the exhibit.
 "An effort is being made to have the schools of the valley compete for the prize which has been offered to the school showing the best exhibit" said Mrs. J. A. Higgins yesterday. 'This does not mean the flowers have to be grown at the school, but rather grown in the community and entered by the school. Prizes also will be given to the school boys and girls entering in dividual exhibits.
 'The Arizona Seed and Floral com pany gave a cup to the club showing | the best general exhibit last year, and this cup will be competed for again this year. The club winning it three l times in succession becomes the owner"
 1 Mrs. Higgins said that the committes desired a number of clubs to enter this contest. The cup, she said, was not awarded to the largest collection but the best general collection. which gives the small club the same opportunity as the larger organization.
 | In speaking of the arrangements be-
 ing made Mrs. Higgins said it was hoped this season that the exhibit would be open in the evening, giving the public an opportunity to view the display.
 Tt is not for the sake of the exhibit nor for filling in a club program that these flower shows are held. but for the purpose of interesting everyone in growing flowers" according to Mrs Higgins. Sweet peas were chosen because there is no place where they reach such a high point of perfection as in the Salt River valley at this time | of the year. There is no reason why | this valley should not, be as gorgeous
 with bloom as California, and the peo-

The Republican Flower Letter Con test closes this evening-all letters dated March 19 will be accepted in the contest and be entered in the prize contest. It will be several days before the large list of letters will be read and judged and the final award made. Several hundred letters are on file in the office of The Republican Flower Contest editor and the entire list can not be carefully read and judged in short space of time. The final exam ination of letters will start tomorrow and the winning letter, should be de- cided upon in three or four days.
 If you have not already sent in a flower story it is not too late to do it now. The Flower Letter Contest ed itor cannot receive too many. If it were possible to publish all letters The Republican would gladly do so. but ow- ing to lack of space we are compelled to limit the number and a few of the more interesting letters have been pub lished to date. This morning two more letters are published and another will be given out tomorrow.
 The few letters already printed give an idea of how to write your letter. Keep within the 250-word limit and tell a true story of-what flowers have meant in your life. The author of the best letter submitted will be given a package of Luther Burbank's prize flower seeds and the letter will be entered ip the national flower letter contest with complete set of Bur banks flower books to the national winner.
 The contest is open to all lovers of flowers and is conducted primarily to keep alive the love for flowers that is found in every heart, though some times hidden from view in the hustle and hustle of every day life.
 Say it with flowers has come to be a worldwide slogan; its meaning is clear to rich and poor, young and old. If flowers said it for you. write your story and send 1t to The Repub- lican Flower Letter Contest editor; a package of Burbank's flower seeds will improve that garden this summer and you can tell your friends and neigh bors with flowers.

ON TRIAL ON CHARGE
 IF MANS[AUCHTER

Testifying in his own defense, Aga V. King, now on trial in the superior court on charge of manslaughter in fonnection with the death of A. M. Dement, in Glendale on January 5, yes terday declared he struck Dement, on the head with a shovel in self defense because he thought Dement, was reach ing for gun with which to attack him. The affair took place on the afternoon of January during an argument be- tween the two men over the placing of line fence.
 King said he had been told the dis puted strip of land between his ranch and that of Dement, belonged to him and he was engaged in putting up a fence along the line when A. M. De- ment and his brother Parke Dement, came down and ordered him to stop his work. After a few words, King said, A. M. Dement, started to crawl through the fence and as he did so he reached his hand in his bib of his overalls. King said he thought he was drawing gun, and dropping a hammer which he held, he seized a shovel and struck Dement,.

pie gradually are coming to realize that fact. It is our hope that our sweet pea exhibit becomes so popular and grows to such an extent that it will no longer be given by one department of the Woman's club, but develop into city or valley affair.""
 Mrs. Higgins is chairman of the civ ics department which is staging the affair, and with Mrs. w. F. Boggs is handling the publicity. Mrs. Frank Parker is chairman of the committee having the general arrangements in charge and is at present making up the prize list, which will be announced shortly.

ceased, said he and his brother came down to the fence to see what King was doing and as his brother crawled through the fence, King struck him. knocking him unconscious. He said his brother was not armed and denied either himself or brother had called King any names. The state closed its testimony yesterday and the defense opened with several character wit nesses, after which Pat Ceilings who was assisting King in putting up the fence told substantially the same story that King later told on the stand.
 The case will be resumed at 9:30 o'clock this morning with King on the stand.

 ROSE BUD
 The sun went down into the western sea; night fell swiftly over the little village. An owl winged its way across the sky and from high up in a crag WllQCdL SCI6dul6Q US C0dll6ISe across the valley, but only the echo came back The moon rose like a golden bubble over the distant mountains. The flag of Mexico floated over the plaza; the stars came out and from under the trees came the sound of music, soft and low. The bells of an ancient mission tolled the hour, and then came the sound of merry laugh ter and the perfume of flowers waited by the gentle breeze. It was night in the Sierra Madre. Dark-eyed senoritas strolled on the plaza and chatted on the benches among the flowers. A girl with beautiful eyes dropped a rosebud as she passed by where I sat and I picked it up and put it in a glass of water. The next day the rosebud blos- somed into beautiful flower. Spring passed away and then summer came and as the rosebud had blossomed into beautiful flower, so beautiful friendship ripened into love. That was many years ago, and the girl with the beautiful eyes became my wife, and as the years passed five baiatas came and like the rosebud, they blossomed into beautiful flowers of love. Naturally we feel that we owe much of our hap piness to a rosebud, that today, for the first time, my wife admitted that she dropped on purpose.
