Two Big Features at Crescent

that there's something exceptional
about the picture.
That's Just what can be said about
"Life's Darn Funny" which had its
first showing yesterday at the Cres-

Two things contributed to this. The
most important was the performance
given by Viola Dana as Zoe Robert.
the struggling little v%iolinist whose
plans of storming the artistic world
repeatedly go wrong and whose eff
forts to place a fellow artist on the
highway to cce finally come to
fruition.
The second element in the pic

ton from the Saturday Evening Post
story, "Caretakers Within" by Chris

"The JuCkIins" at Ditmas.

A beautiful story, delightfully."- de-
picted by some of the most charac-
t~eristic types ever seen in a screen
drama, is George Melford's new
Paramount production, THE Juck-

last night.
The characters of Opie Reads

lifted bodily out of the book and
transformed into living, breathing,

plays Bill Halves, the country school
teacher, seems a living double for
the authors character creation. and
so is Charles Ogle, who i%nterprets
old Lem Jucklin to perfection.
THE Jucklins" is a tale of South

'mances, and the story contains all
the other requisite elements. such as
suspense, mystery and appeal.

Republican Editorial Is Subject
 Of Comment By University Writer

Commenting on an editorial which appeared in The Republican Satur- day morning on the plan of former Secretary of Agriculture Meredith for the control of agricultural pro- auction by the government, Dean D. w. Working of the University of Arizona said:
 Your editorial discussing the sta- biiizing of agricultural production brings to mind certain difficulties confronting those who would regu- late the amount of agricultural prod ucts. It suggests the importance of careful studies of the whole field of agricultural production as related to the demand for agricultural prod ucts.
 ''Conceivably, 1t is possible to reg ulate tho acreage of a given crop. The farmers of the Salt River valley might decide to raise only a certain acreage (say 50,000 acres) of Pima cotton and a certain other acreage of alfalfa The difficulty comes when they attempt to regulate the amount of the product.
 Pima cotton should yield a bale to the acre in the valley; but it does not. and the farmer cannot determine how much it shall yield. He knows that. for the entire country. the price is likely to be high if the yield is low. He knows also that, for him ic is important that he shall make his acres yield above the average; fol the profit comes from the fields thai produce above the average. It is well understood by successful farm CTS that high yielding crops are th' profitable crops, so the wise farmer studies to produce large yields pel

SONS DEATH BRINGS CONF FORT|NC LETTER
 FROM TEMPE FRIEND

A comforting letter came yesterday to the stricken parents of John H. Schoshusen, whose death by suicide occurred a few days ago near Mo- gales, victim of unrequited or dead love. The parents. MT. and Mrs. John Schoshusen, reside at Tempe.
 The writer is J. F. Fish of Lake side, with whom the young man boarded when he taught school there. MT. Fish wrote;
 My wife and I wish to extend our sympathy to you all in behalf of our acquaintance with John H. He boarded with us while he was here and spent the most of his evenings with use. We soon became well ac- quainted with him and we certainly miss him. He was a splendid young man, well behaved, very considerate of my wife and children, and. in fact he was one of the family. We never knew a man that was cleaner than your son. He certainly was an ex- ception to mankind. He never 1 smoked, drank tea or coffee, and in 1 fact his habits were ideal. He was | the most courteous and polite person l that have had the pleasure of as | sociating with. We admired him, and ! III c IllGdSuIEs we can Sil0 " III lSGA l the separation that has come about.
 But remember, friend. that it is only for a short time. The step he l took did not mean that he did not l appreciate his parents or home, but 1 to the contrary. He never missed a 1 day but he thanked his Maker that | he had the privilege of being the son ] of such good patents. He was well liked bY every one up here and the 1 community at large admired and re- spected him above my being able to describe.
 While I am not the judge over the
 human family I can say without a
 doubt that the girl whom he wor
 shipped will have to stand for good deal. He talked to me about his love
 affairs somewhat and he felt that the girl was playing fair with him, but
 undoubtedly she was not.
 Tt isn't my intention to tire you ol
 to make you feel worse. for I realize
 that he is missed more than words
 can tell, but we certainly miss hin
 and the children want to know where
 he is. He had become one of us SC
 much that it is the same as if one of our own had gone. Anything I car
 do for you folks in any way, feel free ; to write us, and anything I can dS :, will be more than glad to do.

More than half million sheep will be moved down from the north to the desert soon, according to pr. Mason A. Harp, federal veterinarian, who has just returned from that dis trict.
 While a few sheep have been sent south on the winter range the ma jority are being held back on the summer range because of the good feed. pr. Harp said that the losses of last year for want of feed will not be repeated as at present plenty Of dry feed is assured to carry the herds through the winter. Dr. Harp says. however, that the range must pro duce green feed by February for suc- cessful lambing.
 Range in the north is in excellent condition and the sheep are in fine shape. On account of scabies all were dipped and they are now en- tirely free from scabs.
