left in the dishes to serve even a
small sized child.
Between the dinner and the caba-
ret the Country store came in for its
share of attention. Every number
brought something for the buyer, and
some of the men who had patronized
the store most literally went home
with all manner of odd purchases,
from baby socks to pale pink bloom
ers. The store netted snug amount
for the Nursery. and the hard work
ing clerks" behind the counter went
home feeling well repaid for their
labors.
Because of the unusual attendance
at the dinner the cabaret entertain
ment was deferred until the end of
the meal. Then Pixley's orchestra
swung into 'The Fascinating Waltz"
and tiny Doris Odelle Mason. looking
like a fluffy pink fairy. floated out
over the floor in the most bewitch-
ing bit Of dancing seen in Phoenix for
many day. For an encore she gave
the "Old Fashioned Dance receiv-
ing much applause and great punches
of pink sweet peas. Some of her
more enthusiastic male admirers
threw money over the floor, in the
old-fashioned way of approving her
act.
Pleasing Numbers
Gwendolin Lynch was charming in
her Dance of the Hours her tech-
nique and training displaying itself
particularly in her exquisite rendi-
tion of Mendelssohns Spring Song
dance. She is an artistic in her
work, and does it With joy and ease
which is a pleasure to watch.
Mabel Novinger, who took her
training under Ruth St. Denis, rem
dered the difficult Scarf Dance
with a, verve and grace which
brought her much applause. For an
encore she gave a particularly weird
and intricate creation along the lines
of the Bacchante dances.
The Hawaiian steel guitar orches-
ira numbers were so we'll rendered
and so well liked that the players
had great difficulty in escaping play
ing for the remainder of the even
ing.
BY s o'clock nearly everyone in
town, it seemed, had come for the
dance, and from then until midnight
PiXley's orchestra was kept busy
making music for the tripping feet.
The whole affair was one immense
success from start to finish and it
will be many a long day before those
who worked for this end will cease
receiving compliments for their share
in the event.

MAY FILE FRIENDLY
. SUIT OVER HIGHWAYS

A friendly suit may be. filed in
Graham county to determine whether
the present highway commission of
the county or the board of super
risors will have the power to expend
the bond issue of $780, 900 recently
voted in that county for the purpose
OF constructing highways. For the
present the highway commission and
the supervisors viii act jointly on
matters in connection with the ex-
pendlture in order to expedite the
road construction work while the
question IS being decided.
The difference Of opinion as TO
which body has the authority to carry
on the work arose following the
passage of an act by the special leg
islature providing that the board of
supervisors shall act as ex- -officio
members of highway commission
where the bond issue for road pur-
poses is under $2,000,000'. The bill
also carries a provision that all COM
missions existing at the time should
be retained.
The county attorney OF Graham
county. it was stated. is of the opinion
that the board of supervisors are the
ones to have charge of the expendi-
ture rather than the highway COM
mission and it is probable that a ju-
dicial ruling may be sought in the
question.

PRODUCTION OF SLATE
Unaffected BY STRIKE

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, August s.
As most glate Quarries are operated
by electric power furnished by public
utilities no shutdowns have been re-
situations. Unless the public utili-
ties become affected and slate ship
ments are delayed 1929 promises to
be one Of the best OF the last hve
years in the slate industry. Produc-
tion is not sufficient to meet the de-
Of the serious shortage in skilled
quarry workers and slate roofers.
Some of the workers, who left these
occupations during the war. are grad

their life work. but there are still
turn of any workers who have ever
worked in the slate business. either
at the quarry or applying 1t on the
job. and good opportunities are offer
ed Young men to begin to learn these
trades as a life work.
Many producers report a rush of
business and an apparent increasing
demand for roofing slate. The public
realizes more than ever that the cost
of a construction material, whether
for the roof or any other part of
building. is measured. not only in the
period of years. taking the first cost
and upkeep and repairs in considera-
tion. On such q basis slate has the
advantage over all other roofing ma
terials for record of permanence. re-
quiring no expense Of maintenance
for paint. patches and repairs. A
slate roof was placed on An English
chapel at Bradford-on-Avon over
1900 years ago. and has remained
there through the centuries and Is
still in good condition. Here. In
America. it is reported that one slate
roof covered six buildings in sue
seventh after 17S years of use.
While several manufacturers report
restriction Of production. due to in
sufficient supply of workers. they re-
port the demand and production for
June, 1922. considerably in excess of
that for 1921 and 1920.
