READ YOUR CHARACTER

Light and Dark Motives

Light ana s9AFk m0tfvcB
 There is nothing sinister about the "dark mottre'' you are going to read of here, for in the language of characteros- ogy the motive Is a type of physical and mental temperament, and. of course, the motive type of person may be either dark or light in complexion.
 As you have seen In previous articles, you recognize the motive type of person by the shape of tine fufl face. It Is the head that is about the same width at the temples the cheeks and the jaw; the the square face Motive people are of the energetic, muscular, "two-fsted'' rugged outdoor type Whether fate has placed them at work outdoor or at a desk. their dominating trait is the love of doing and adodnpishing as an outlet for their en- ergies. They play the game for results, it is true, but more than that for the sheer 1 joy of the game itself. You know lots ct people are that way.
 But it makes difference whether the

He will be more progress sive, more impatient and incautious If, one the other hand, he is brunette. his energy will be of a slower, more sustain ed kind. He will be more conservative, and though his initial rush may not be so great, he wiM be a strong finisher-

B|SbEE LUMBER
 COMP ANY LOSES
 SUIT IN TUCSON
Instructed Verdict For De fense Ends Case Arising
 From Fire at Lowell

TUCSON, AriZ., Nov. 14-The jury in the case of the Bisbee Lumber Com pany vs. the BisbeeNaco Water Com. pany, was this morning instructed by Judge Sam l.. Pattee to bring in yer dict for the water company, defendant in the suit. The lumber company was suing for $134.000 damages alleged to have been sustained during the fire that swept half the business district of Lowell in October, 1920.
 In his statement to the jury, Judge Pattee, after reviewing the case, de- clared that there was but one vital point at issue: whether or not a con- tract between the two companies, by which the water company guaranteed a certain fire protection to the lumber company, was actually in effect at the time of the fire In his statement to the jury, Judge Pattee declared that no such contract had been shown to exist and that there was no possible conflict in testimony during the trial of the case which might make it nc cessary for the jury to deliberate and decide whether or not the contract existed.
 During the trial Emil Marks, mana ger of the. lumber company, testified that contract had been entered into with the lumber company in 1913. This contract, he claimed, was still in effect at the time of the Lowell fire. Marks testimony was to the effect that the contract had been made with J. H. JaQuemin, former manager for the water company.
 Testimony for the defense showed that Jaquemin had left the water com nanv in February, 1913, and the dis trict month later, or before the time Marks claimed the contract was en- tered into. The defense testimony al- so showed that the state corporation commission had. on July 15, 1913, af- ter 9 thorou@h \aview of the water company's business, ordered all exist ing contracts annuled. Further de fense testimony showed that no such contract as claimed by the lumber company, had been entered into with the water company after the promul- gation of the corporation commits siOr's order.
 The lumber company's case was handled during the trial by -ichael Shannon, Thomas Wood and George Hilsinger
 The defense was represented by members of the firm of Ellinwood & Ross. of Bisbee, and Frank Curley, O Tucson.
