Second. That we, representing the
taxpayers of Maricopa county, feel
that the awarding Of the contract BY
the highway commission, for the
construction OF the remaining l6V
miles of unfinished program, should
be let to the lowest responsible Did
der. taking into consideration the
types OF payment offered by the var
ious bidders, the durability OF the
materials constituting such pave.
ments, and the maintenance cost OF
same after laid down.
We find, from an examination or
the bids submitted by Twohy Broth
ers and by the California Construc..
tion company. that Twohy Brothers
bid Is higher than the bid OF the CAL
ifornia Construction company by ap~
proximately the amounts shown De-
low. The following figures cover the
difference in bids between all aspnalt
concrete construction by the Califor-
MIA Construction company. and all
cement concrete construction by
Twohy Brothers.
IS ft.--6 inches thick, $4,000 per mile
IS ft.--5 inches thick $4,000 per mile
1S ft'--s inches thick, $4,000 per mile
is ft.--5 inches thick, $1,000 per mile
When considering the combination
bid by the California Constructor
company, on approximately twenty
miles OF cement concrete roads and
the balance Of asphalt concrete con-
struction, as compared with Twohy
Brothers all cement concrete, Twony
Brothers bid is higher than the bid
of the California Construction CONF
pany by approximately the following
figures:
is ft.--6 inches thick, $1.700 per mile
lg ft.--5 inches thick, $1,000 per mile.
16 ft.--6 inches thick, $l,l0O per mile
16 ft.--5 inches thick. 5000 per mile
AS shown by these figures, the bid
Of the California Construction COM
pany is lower than that of Twoly
Brothers, and on that basis alone,
leaving other factors out Of consid-
GRAFTON, 1t would appear that the bid
OF the California CONSTRUCTION com :
pany is the lowest bid: but, from the

~ Committee Of Eleven
The Committee Of the Taxpayers
association made the following sug-
gestion TO the commission:
We. the Committee of Eleven, ap-
pointed from the body Of taxpayers
gathered at the Hotel Adams in a
meeting on February 21st, after as
careful study as It has been within
our power TO give the matter Of high
way contracts, make the following
recommendation to the county
highway commission Of Maricopa
county:
First. Whereas, IN our opinion, the
bids secured for the $50 miles OF
paving in Maricopa county have been
opened and are satisfactorily low
bids, indicating that keen competi-
tlon has obtained, we recommend
that a contract be let for the paving
OF these 1850 miles, under these bids.

Maricopa County Highway Com
mission for the $4,000, 900

Bids Of the two contractors recommended to the
Maricopa County Highway Commission by the various
committees for their consideration and agreed by the
commission to be the only bids to be considered for their
final acceptance.

FOOD VALUES AND
COMBINATIONS

We give special attention to
the chemical combinations of
foods. II is an acknowledged
fact that pie made with animal
shortening will not be handled as
well as one made with vege-
table shortening. We use Crisco
in all our pastry.
And as to vitamine contents of
foods we give special care in
their preparation that their value
is not lost. Many vegetables lose
much of their food value unless
properly cooked.
There is the bread question;
we serve hot breads made in our
own sanitary bakery, but we also
specialize on whole wheat bread
cold, which is much more easily
digested than the hot breads.
1t is to please you, and give
you what you want that we are
here. You know our standard in
the past, and we are daily study
ing to give you the best, and the
change. to a cafeteria is to serve
you at less cost to you.
We wish you to eat what you
want, and will be glad to offer
you suggestions only when you
ask for them. Tell us your likes
and we will be glad to prepare
them when possible.

THE GERMAN AIR FORCE ~ THE
GREAT WAR By Major George Pau.
Stoushton (Doran) 81.
~ HIS book, in its English trarsla
ton, should prove to be of as
sstance to Americans Interested
in the history and development of avia-
tion. Twenty nine contributors are
represented in its chapters, which are
divided into two sections, that on the
German Air Force as a unit Of power,
describing the machines used and the
training of personnel, and that on the
application of this power. The second
part is mainly historical. There is an
immense amount Of really valuable
matter in these divisions of the book,
covering the past growth Of aviation
and even predicting the future, with
the whole story Of the part taken in
the war by the German flying men
trailing through the narrative.
At the close Of the book are para
graphs that approach the poetic in
their description Of giant acroplanc
TO come IN the near years: THE ma
chine will ascend from Doberitz in the
early dawn and thunder it's way toward
the morning star at speed of 900
miles an hour. No matter where the pi-
lot may cast his eye backward, should it
be across Ireland, Newfoundland, Van
couver, Vladivostok or Moscow, every
where he will see the image of awaken
ing day, everywhere time will be the
same" Then comes tentative proph-
ecy; "Perhaps even this event may be
brought about by employing unoccupied
machines directed on their way by
wireless, as l suggest will ultimately
be the case with the aerial mail, which
will be carried out by aeroplanes con-
troled only by electric waves and con-
tanning no men,"

THE FROZEN BARRIER. By Bclmorc

TT MAY be an illusion fostered by
the cold weather, but it does seem
that the frozen north has tempo
rarily supplanted the Wild West as u
tleater Of adventure stories. The
desert with its meager growth Of cac-
tus gives way to Canadian and Alaskan
pine forests and icy wastes. Adven-
lures in cnpsizable boats take the place
Of the wild horseback rides which can
be found in every elf-respectins West
crn novel.
This theory that romance is bccom-
ing polarized is borne out by both the
books under review. Growing River"
tells the story Of a two fsted struggle
for the possession Of certain water and
lumber rights, in which an enterprise
ing young business man and deputy
game warden play tho parts of hero ana
vil!nin respectively. A charming girl,
who talks in French Canadian patoiy,
adds furtftr zcst to the struggle. rur-
ther high lights are supplied b. r

Mr.. Perry knows the country Of
which he writes, and his picture Of the
rough. hearty life of the Canadian

tho novel The story reaches happy
ending after running its course Of
humor, conflict, excitement and gun
