START CONTEST FOR
POSTER DESIGN To
TELL FINE CLIMATE

Following the acceptance several
weeks ago by the Salt River Valley
Realtors association of a plan to fur
ther the interests of the valley and of
Phoenix in the East by laying em-
phasis upon the climatic advantages
of this section OF the Southwest. an
nouncement was made yesterday that
contest has been opened to the
artists of the county for a poster
design to be used on envelopes.
The prizes Will be S25 for the first,
SIS for the second, IS for the third
and five 81 prizes in addition. There
are practically no restrictions. Paint
ings, drawings, photographs any
form of art work which. as a poster,
may be made into cut for COM
mercial and private letters and which
will depict in the most striking man
ner the particular lures of this part
of the world for the homeseeker and
home builder-may be used by the
contestants
Contestants are urged. however, to
try to depict such things as will ap-
peal from the standpoint of progress
and real worth. The arid Southwest,
the horriferous Gila monster. the bare
cattle country, the grinning skulls
of an inhospitable desert the coiled
rattlesnake, the broken .down emil
grant wagon-these are taboo. What
the committee in charge desires is
poster which will show the beauties
of the Salt River valley-its palms
and flowers and citrus groves. its fine
roads, its lovely climate-in short. it
is conducting this advertising cam
paign on the same lines as those
which have been used with success
in California for many years and
which have filled that state with
hundreds of thousands of Eastern
people.
All designs should be sent to Hal
Prince chairman of the committee.
at l10 North Central avenue. The
contest will close at o'clock on the
evening Of Tuesday February 2S, so
that contestants are urged to hand
in their contributions early.
The envelopes upon which the de-
sign is to be placed will be distributed
among the business and professional
men of the city, as well as among pri-
vate citizens, with the idea that every
piece of first-clas mail leaving
Phoenix shall carry a real message
from the Salt River valley.

FLAGSTAFF NORMAL
HAS GREAT FUTURE
SAYS ITS PRESIDENT

L. B. McMullin. president Of the
Northern Arizona Normal school at
Flagstaff, was a visitor to Phoenix
yesterday. having come down for the
express purpose of attending the
opera "Pinafore," which the school
is going to stage next month.
Mr.. McMillin has been in Arizona
two years and still retains a great
enthusiasm about the wonderful see
mic beauties of the state. 'raving"
about things which are quite COM
monplace to old settlers. He is espe-
cially delighted with Flagstaff and
with the normal school,
Flagstaff is an IDEAL location for
such school which is capable of
being built up into one of the finest
in the country. This is principally
due to the climate, which permits of
a summer session to which students
from all over the Southwest come"
said Mr.. McMullin. while our winter
classes are not as large as those Of
other schools, the summer classes
carry much larger registration. And
the Arizona students are positively
the best / have ever seen, and I've
taught in many places. Why. in the
two years I've been at the head
of the school there has been only one
case up for discipline and I'll have
to admit that l was looking for them
closely"
If Mr.. McMullin has his way about
it Phoenix had, better look to her
laurels. for il is his ambition to
make Flagstaff the musical and ar
tistic center of the state.
The people are hungry for this
sort of thing. Why, Tuesday night
when we had Alic Gentle with us.
the largest audience ever assembled
in the city packed the big auditorium
to hear this marvellous singer" Mr..
McMullin stated.
Some of the finest talent in the
country is represented on the fac
ulty of the normal according to it's
president. Miss Martha Dewey. rel
ative of the famous admiral and her
self well known in dramatic circles.

part in the play which depicted Ari
zona's progress from pioneer days
to statehood
Every year the normal puts on a
light opera and has already chosen
'Pinafore" for this years diversion.
When the presidents heard that it
was being played in Phoenix he made
this special trip to see it-"just TO
get line on any new business they
might have

NEW YORK.-Rambling about in
the shops which are already showing
spring things / find a marked ten
dency toward clever little cape cos
tunes of silk. Simple they are, and
usually quite void of trimming, de-
pending upon smartness of cut for
their charm
Occasionally one sees a saucy
flashily lined cape serving no further
purpose than that of ornament, hung
at the back of a blouse.
The Robbins garment shown is of
canton crepe, with cape lined in white
crepe de chine. The cape is cut with
an irregular hem line and a loose
crush collar which ends in long
sashes. The latter can be tied at
the front or worn thrown across the
shoulders.
Skirts--like the skirts of last sum-
mer-are inclined to be full and
like this many OF them wear wide
tucks toward the bottom.

Typothetae Head Insists on Better

Hawkins. Local Typothetae as
Sociations everywhere are actively
engaged in inaugurating plans to
train apprentices.
1.-THE policy Of the International
Association OF Employing Printers
(The United Typothetae Of Ameri-
ca) is to increasingly urge a thor

for the printing trades. Whenever
the public vocational schools car
and will help their assistance will
be cordially welcomed.

simple forms and taking on the
complex. Intricate, expensive ma
chinery is taking the place of older
types, and quality of production is
forcing out the Just as good"

fusion exists in the minds of many
educators as to the aim and scope

CAS- a consequence of defects in
school departments of printing
mostly in the manual training and
pre-vocational schools, there is a
the trade of all efforts to teach
printing in the public schools. Boys
present themselves to employers
saying that they have studied print
ing in a certain school. Since the
manual training and pre-yocational
schools far outnumber the vocation

boy has had little printing in q
manual training or prevocational
school.

Clearly, printing instruction vi

worse than useless. Boys who
are subjected to it are not only mol

the industry. 1t tends to recruit
the ranks already too full Of the
poor worlkmen, to furnish supply
of cheap labor for cheap shops, to
lower the standards of the industry
and to subject good workmen to all
the evils Of cheap competition.

be ended. Printers should insist
