LOYAL ORDER OF MOOSE

Last Wednesday night was the reg ular meeting of the Moose and one of the largest crowds of the year was present. Several applications were received and several candidates pre- scented themselves for initiation. This was the first initiation for the new officers and all who were present were loud in their praise of the man ner in which they put on the work. It was said that they put on the work like veterans. Phoenix lodge has been noted for the efficient and impressive manner in which they put on their limitations. Much other business was transacted in regular order.
 The entertainment committee put the matter before the lodge about having a baseball team to represent the Moose. The members were heartily in favor of it and left it to the entertainment committee to or ganize a team among the members if possible.
 After the regular business Judge Stanford addressed the members. He spoke on the advantages the orphans of the Moose enjoyed over orphans who have come under his notice as judge. of this county. He spoke brief ly of the advantages of Mooseheart and then gave some of his experi- ences and observations of the helpless orphans with no one to take any in- terest in them.

BIG CRIMINALS ARE TRAVELLERS

The hie robberies of jewelry in the south of France recently are re- hinder of the ubiquity of the modern criminal. The thieves may have been local men, but the probability is tnat they were importations from EnSiaho or Australia or the United States.
 Criminals engaged in the 'big push are much travelled men. The whole world is their hunting ground A few thousand miles are of little moment with thousands of pounds as the uiu- mate goal.
 Expert jewel thieves. confidence. tricksters. card sharpers, opponents of the 'tinfallible" betting systenl7Oan at one time or another make tours of the world, if necessary, in order to pick up wealthy victims and by skill full nursing lull them into a belief that dishonesty is silly rumor in- stead of an irrefragable fact.
 It does seem strange to the millions of people who carefully guard their shillings that men are to be found who will hand over thousands Of pounds to comparative strangers only to find when too late that they have been swindled.
 A fool and his money, we are told, soon part; yet, as matter of fact, 1t is the man who regards himself as shrewd and careful who is most sought after by these ingenious in- triguers. The fool is apt to be too suspicious; and, anyway, he has not much money.
 Every liner that leaves Great Brit ain has among its first-class passen- gers criminals who are making the voyage for the pleasure of work ing"
 They spend money freely, make themselves agreeable, mark down their victims get to know all about their business, and at the journeys end-it may be the United States. Australia, the far east, or back again in Old England-fleece them of all their money by swindling if this hay not already been done by card sharp ing.
 Card sharpers in the west end are now having rather a rough time be- cause the police will not leave them alone. one of these gentlemen went to New Zealand IS months ago with out penny in his pocket He came back by way of Australia, the United States the far east.

GIRLS AND THEIR FRIENDS

Girls on the whole, are more prone to make slight friendships than men are. A man may have one or two friends, but they are generally real pals. whereas a girl frequently has many acquaintances, and wastes her time over girls who don't matter and don't care a fig for her. In the end she often finds herself friendless in consequence.
 There are two tests of friendship, and maybe they apply to some men as we'll. They are going abroad" and getting engaged" Heaps of girls who get engaged drop all their former friends, so that they may de- vote all their time to the one and only. Such a selfish thing to do. be- sides being very bad for the one and only. And old friends find they are left out in the cold.
 The girl who goes abroad is also guilty of treating her friends badly. In her new surroundings, making new friends, she forgets the good times she had in the old country, forgets that her letters are eagerly looked for. I know many instances of girls who are guilty of absolute in gratitude.-London Star.

Many Good Reports
 On Apperson Cars

Almost every day we receive re- ports on the splendid performance of the Apperson eight" says T. E. Jar rard. vice president of the Apperson Brothers Automobile company of Ko- komo Indiana.
 Most of these letters point out the unusual flexibility and the astound- ing gasoline economy. This is due to the special Apperson motor which has eight smoothness and four economy. The following excerpt from a recent letter sent us by a well known man in the East shows the unusual ability of this well known car.
 " I have just given my Apperson a run of fifty miles over the steepest hills-it was just smooth flow of power. No slowing down or heavy upgrade work.
 The other car I owned. very well known eight-cylinder, was smooth as they make them but it certainly did not have the kick or getaway that the Apperson has, |"

Maybe It's chlValry. or maybe it's plain curiosity. But in any event, a woman driver in a stalled automobile will attract. ten times the crowd and ten times the attention a man in sim liar circumstances can command.

 When my spark plugs need clean ing or my motor needs tuning, do l go to a garage? I do not. Instead take my good natured and good look ing stenographer out for short spin.

THE LAND IF JAZZ
 AT THE HIP TODAY

The Hip has a genuine novelty Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. It is called "The Land of Jazz" and fea- lures Eline Percy. It's the story of bunch of charming people who move to California and there they find wonderful enjoyment In the course of events the girl of the party who is something of wit, becomes inspired with the jazz idea much to the diScomfor. of her very matter of fact sweetheart He lays Ter infatu- ation to the spell of the California moonlight and thereby hangs the req son for this story and its rather un- usual title. It involves the change of affection encountered by young woman and the perfidy of another and, while it is strongly dramatic in its conception, it carries in every reel a bunch of genuine laugh.
 With "The l and of Jazz" will be seen a Mutt and Jeff comedy entitled The Glue FacNory." Here 's a skit for the funmakers from the pen of Bud Fisher that alone is a scream in itself. The Hip this week has re- markedly clever program for follow ing The Land of Jazz," which closes Tuesday night, the little Washington street house will offer in tho middle of the week Constance Talmadge in the sparkling comedy Tn Search of a Sinner" and follC wing that one Para mount will send Robert Warwick in Told in the Hills This should round out a wonderfully attractive week at this house.

MANY PEOPLE WILL SEE SALT
 RIVER VALLEY

Many motorists in the valley have lived here for a longer time than they should without taking a real compre- hensive look around. They do not realize that many of the major points of the Salt River valley can be seen in a Sunday drive, combined with a picnic dinner and a good swim.
 To point out how this enjoyable trip can be made, and the points of interest to be seen, Morgan Motor Service, the new and up-to-date shop on the southeast corner of Van Bu- ren and First, sent out their big serv- ice car few days ago to map the route and 1t can be seen on their front window.
 Make a fairly early start. so that the whole round trip can be taken without driving fast and fatiguing the party.
 Go west on Van Buren along the new pavement that stretches along side the old Salt River Valley canal, the town ditch" we all know. that was one of the first irrigating canals built when the white man came along and started to duplicate the feats of some prehistoric citizens who one time had most of the valley under ir- rigation.
 Notice on the right evidences of these prehistoric people in occasional mounds. Turn north on Lateral Sev- enteen to the thriving little city of Glendale, then east along Glendale avenue past the old sugar mill.
 You will pass through the citrus belt on both sides of North Central and strike the Arizona canal about Seventh street. Follow the canal bank, passing the milch goat ranch, through the cut where the canal goes through a young mountain, past more citrus orchards. below the foot of old Comeback, Ingleside, to Scottsdale.

BUCKS BLOCK
 JEFFERSON q

Jack Sylvie, proprietor of Jacks Buick Garage on West Jefferson street, has a right to crow a little now and then. In spite of the pro- testations of some garage operators who claim there is no such animal as business" Jack recently had to go out and clear the street in front of his place of Buick cars and owners.
 A few days ago he received the tip from the police officers that his place was being made the rendezvous of Buick cars-too many of them. in fact-and that they were blocking the street and interfering with traffic. So Jack has had to ask the custom CTS to hug the curbs and keep away from water plugs.
 When a fellow has to do that it Is a pretty good indication that the old saying about the mouse trap is true.

It may be far less dis honest to pick a mans pocket than to rob him of his time It is the man who can tell 1t well and tell it so that those who run may read that always gets an audience which keeps awake; his audience is always glad to hear him, and it frequently reverts to him James F.
