HOW MUCH IN BALE OF
HAY? LAW DOESN'T SAY

"a bale of hay" may have different
meanings in Arizona, according to F..
r. Dyas, state inspector of weights and
measures, who objects to the clause in
the statute which permits hay being
sold by the bale without the weight
being stamped on each bale.
Mr. Dyas believes that the legisla-
ture should rectify this section of the
code either by amendment or wiping
out the provision which does not re-
quire the weight mark in an agree
ment sale.
Under the present law this is un-
necessary, naccordance with an opin-
ion rendered yesterday by w. J. CAL
braith, attorney general, in which he
says:
Section 553S, Revised Statutes of Ari-
IONA, 1913, Civil Code. provides, among
other things, that sit shall be I'M
lawful to sell or offer for sale any
baled hay in any other manner than
by weight, except by an agreement be-
tween the seller and the purchaser to
the contrary And said section fur
Their provides that where hay Is sold
In bales, each of such bales shall have
printed or stamped or marked there
on the correct weight of such bale in
pounds or fractions of a pound avofr-
dupois.
We are of the opinion that where
the seller and purchaser enter into an
agreement for the sale and purchase
of baled hay on any basis other than
by weight, that it is unnecessary fol
such seller to mark the weight or
bales of hay sold under the terms oil
such agreement, and thatin doing sc
the seller would not be violating the
provisions of Section 553S Revised
Statutes of Arizona, 1913, Civil eide
above quoted.

TODAY IS NOT LEGAL
HOLIDAY IN ARIZONA
''Is today a holiday ?"

as today a holiday"
Based on an opinion of w. J. Gal
braith, attorney general, it is not le-
gal holiday in Arizona and state Of
fees, county offices, city offices. banks,
shops and things will be open today
while stenos and clerks will grind out
their eight hours as per usual.
A lot of folks had planned to make
q regular holiday out of Lincoln's birth
day until the law stepped in and said,
"Oh, no. you don't"
Anyway, Admission day on Monday
and Washington's birthday will be OBJ
served as holidays.
Here's Attorney General Galbraith's
opinion:
Are Feb. IL, Lincoln's birthday, Feb.
IA, Admission day, and Feb. %, Wash
ington's birthday, holidays?
Opinion
Paragraph 1888 provides that the
14tf day of February, known as Ad-
mission day, and the 22d day of Feb
ruary, known as Washington's birth
day, and other days thereafter through
the calendar year, shall each be holi-
day.
Paragraph 1884 provides that public
offices shall not be open on holidays.
Paragrah 1886 provides that no court
shall be open nor shall any judicial
business be transacted on legal holi-
days, except for certain specific in
stances
There is no statutory provision COW
ering Feb. IL or Lincoln's birthday. II
is the opinion of this office that Feb
IL is OF a holiday; that Feb. IA and
Feb. % are legal holidays.

William Faversham most conclusive
ly demonstrates that the art of his
finished actor Is as effective on the
screen as it is on the stage in his
second big picture, THE Sin That Was

at Mauk's Columbia theater on Thurs
day.
Mr.. Packard's story gives this tai

two distinctly different types of men

Wallace Reid finishes his engage

showings today of always Audacious."
1t is a story in which Reid is called
upon to play a dual Characterization
two decidedly opposite types-one a
dashing young millionaire, and the
other gentleman crook. The action
has been conceded perhaps faster than
any introduced in a Reid release for
some time. and it is certain that he
has never had picture of wider ap-
peal, greater surprises or a story of
more absorbing interest and more COM
polling climaxes. Reid in the dual
Characterization is superb. The dou-
BILE exposure work seen in this picture
strikes the last word in photography
along this line, and presents some
amazing feats of cameracraft. The
same program carries an added COM
