Why Is OILDAG
Better Than Plain Oil?

AS an example, take the cylinders of
your car. The combustion will break
any ordinary oil filrn-but it cannot
break a Graphoid Surface. This means
that you get full power from every
explosion and that fabrication is per-
feet, instead of being interrupted and
an oil film broken every time cylin-
der explodes.

PURCHASES FOUR SHOWHOUSES IN NJ: ABBY CITIES
George A. Mauk, Owner Of Columbia Theater, Be- comes Chief Playhouse Proprietor Of Arizona Through Series Of Local Transactions

Purchase of the Menhennet theatri cal interests on the south side by George A. Mauk, owner of the Colum- bia theater here and other theaters throughout the state, was announced yesterday. Four theaters. at Tempe, Mesa Chandler and Gilbert. are ln- cluded in the deal. The addition of these theaters makes MT. Mauk the largest individual theater owner in the entire southwest, the announcement said. The sum involved in the trans fer was not made public.
 Coincident with this announcement, MT. Mauk told of plans now under way for the construction, this summer or early fall of a 2.000seat theater on the old Irwin property at First and Washington streets Phoenix. These plans. he declared, call for one of the finest theatrical structures between Kansas City and Los Angeles. The Irwin property was purchased some months ago by syndicate of Phoenix men. of which Mir. Mauk was a mem Der. It was planned to build a com bined theatrical and office building at that time but the labor scarcity and high cost of materials caused an in- l definite postponement
 Properties involved in the transfer
 from William Menhennet to MT. MaulS | include the Majestic theater at Mesa and the Menhennet theaters at Tempe, Chandler and Gilbert. These theaters are all provided with stage space. l A few weeks ago, MT. Mauk pur- 1 chased the Rainbow theater at Glen ] dale from George Cox and is now l planning construction of motion pie ture houses at Superior and Casa Grande.
 His theatrical holdings in Arizona now total IA theaters in Il different cities He owns and operates two
 theaters in Phoenix. the Columbia and
 Amuzu; one at Litchfield, one at Glen
 dale. one at Tempe. one at Mesa, one at Gilbert. one at Chandler, one at ! Goodyear. one at Florence, two at ! Ray and two at Hayden.
 By reason of this Arizona chain of theaters. MT. Mauk intends to circuit | films from the leading producers. thus providing a higher standard and more recent releases for his patrons
 Although this is his first theatrical l.venture on the south side of the river | MT. Mauil is not a stranger in that | community. A resident of Arizona for more than Al years, he served as the second railroad agent in Mesa which position he held for many lyears. He lived in the Gateway city
 for many years and was married there
 He is also a charter member of the
 Tempe Masonic lodge.

HURLEY APPEAL IS
 ARGUED BEFORE ES. |.

That no substantial idea was ex- pressed in one of the instructions to the jury in the case of Harry Hurley, convicted of the larceny of 1200 sacks of cement from the state. was the opinion expressed by Justice Baker from the bench yesterday when tho Hurley case came up on appeal.
 Justice Baker held that the sentence was not complete and had no meaning. While this criticism was directed at an ''error'' called to his attention by w. L. Barnum, counsel for the appel lant. Justice Baker found another in struction which he characterized as "a wonderful statement in another in structiou favorable to the defendant
 Besides assignment of error, Judge Barnum based his appeal on alleged improper introduction of testimony, in structions of the court and improper remarks by Louis B. Whitney, an as sistant attorney general during the trial of the case. He claimed all these features prejudiced the rights of his client in procuring a fair and imDar- tial trial
 George Hill. assistant attorney gen eral, held that the instructions were more than favorable to the defendant who had a fair trial and no cause for complaint. MT. Hill contanded that no error had been committed by the trial court.

MONDAY CITY COURT HAS BUSY SESSION

You don't need to trouble to get my belongings for me now. I'll return for them in a few days" Harry Lives, Indian, told the desk sergeant at po- lice headquarters when released from the city jail last Thursday after serv- ing a term for being drunk. He re- turned two days later, as promised, and after advising with Acting Judge Kirkland yesterday in police court, de- Cided to leave his belongings with the desk sergeant for another 30 days. He was sentenced for that term after ad- hitting he had been drunk again."
 Juan Lopez and B. F. Head were found guilty of being drunk and also sentenced to serve 90 days in the city jail The balance of the police court grist yesterday was mostly concerned with dice. l.. l.. Smart was fined $25 for permitting Buff Alberti, Ray Brotherton and William Campbell to roll the numbered cubes in his pool room. The only player of the trio who appeared was fined s10 The other two players forfeited $10 bonds.
 Although not charged with manipu- lating them, the presence of three pairs of dice among the effects of E. Fl. Daugherty did not help his case any when he was tried for fighting. De nying that he was actually fighting, Daugherty admitted he was having a very heated argument over a pool game. He was fined $10.

while the consolidation of the chain of branches of the two institutions pri- marily interested will greatly extend the service to be rendered the people of the state.
 The Arizona Central bank carries into the merger it's branches in king man. Williams, Oatman, Cooley and Chloride, while the Citizens Bank brings into the merger branches ln Kingman, Williams and Oatman-
 One of the principal reasons for the
 bringing about of the merger as this
 time lies in the fact that T. F. Pollock has been forced by the press of his
 rapidly increasing outside personal interests to lay aside much of the de- tail work with which an active bank official is always faced. MT. Pollock believed that the time has come when he can no longer carry both burdens without undue personal effort.
 It is announced, however that he will retain his position upon the board o1 l directors of the combined institutions and will lend his personal efforts to- 1 wards making the new organization ! successful, not only from the stand 1 point of the banks themselves, but as i matter of service to the people of the 1 state. Other directors of the combined 1 banks will be M. I. Powers, James s l Douglas, w. H. Brophy, H. J. McClung l C. J. Walters and J. P. Wilson.

TWO LARGE BANKS IN
 NORTHERN ARIZONA
 IN CONSOLIDATION

Merger of the Arizona Central bank and the Citizens bank, both of Flag staff, was announced yesterday by T. E. Pollick and M. l. Powers, presidents, respectively, of those prominent finan- cial institutions.
 Uneer the terms of the merger, the S150.000 of outstanding stock of the Citizens bank, with it's S25,00 surplus, becomes consolidated with the assets of the Arizona Central bank, concern with an authorized capital of S1 eco, 900, of which $500,000 is outstanding. The merged institutions will operate as the Arizona Central bank of Flagstaff, with M. I. Powers as president. and with re- sources of six million dollars as shown by last published statement.
 This merger in itself adds materially to the financial strength of banking in northern Arizona, but the additional statement is made that new interests, headed by J. $. Douglas. president of the United Verde Extension Mining company, w. H. Brophy, president of the Bank of Bisbee, director of the Los Angeles Trust and Savings bank and for many years manager of the Phelps Dodge Mercantile company and by H. J. McClung. president of the Phoenix National bank, are to take an active part in the new organization. In ad- dition, the announcement is made that | interests closely allied with the First National Bank of Los Angeles and the | Los Angeles Trust and Savings bank l the strongest financial interest in the l entire southweSt-are also interested | in the merger.
 1 With such forces behind the con-
 solidation great strength is to be added

FINISHES PORTRAIT
 IF GOv. CAMPBELL

A lifelike oil portrait of Governor Thomas F. Campbell has recently been completed by w A. Vogler, a local artist. who has to his credit a portrait of President Wilson, painted three years ago and now hanging in the senior English class room at the Phoe- nix Union High school.
 The portrait of Governor Campbell is a bust which brings out faithfully the underlying force and will power which characterize the chief executive of the state. The painting was made from a. photograph taken of the fover- nor six years ago. From a very dark background the face stands out in relief with active vividness.
 At present the portrait is on exhibi- ton in the office of the Dwight B Heard Investment company in the new Heard building.

BREAD PRICES IN
 PHOENIX GO DOWN

Wholesale and retail prices of bread took sharp decline in Phoenix yes- terday, the result of the voluntary ac- ton of local bakers. These decreases approximate 15 to 20 per cent. In practically every instance, etailsprices resumed their pre-war level--10 cents a loaf for 16 and IT ounce loaves and 13 cents for 20 ounce loaves. The latter size is retailed at two loaves for 25 cents
 Prices during the war days were 13 cents for the 16 ounce loaves and 15 cents for the 20 ounce loaves. Baking of Is ounce loaves was almost wholly discontinued in Phoenix in the spring of 1919, however With the reductions, however. many local bakeries announce the re- establishment of the Is ounce loaf as the standard size.
 Sharp decreases in the cost of mate rials especially flour, were given as the cause for the bakers action.
