in Phoenix yesterday from Coronado.
Mrs. Thornton has been spending
several weeks in the southern Cali

Though in the Hotel Adams but 10
minutes when met by a representa-
tive Of The Republican. she looked as
refreshed and vivacious as il she had
spent the night in her room instead
of on a railway train, and had al
ready planned an automobile ride
around the city, without taking time
to rest for her afternoons program.
She explained this unusual state of
affairs very simply.

people and all the excitement attend
ant on conventions she said. 1.-THE
only regret had in coming to Phoe-
nix was that it took me away from
dinner planned in my honor aboard
battleship in San Diego harbor.
The dinner took place Monday night,
and had to leave that afternoon in
order to get here on time. OF course,
no pleasure could tempt me to stay
away from this convention, which is
one of the most important events of
my life"
An enthusiastic worker for good
roads in her own state, Mrs. Thorn
ton is already looking forward to the
time when Georgia will be joined by
the Bankhead highway system with
the Pacific coast and all points be-
tween.
Speaking of the problems in her
own state, Mrs. Thornton said that
the road work had been held back
by the running of the cotton crop by
boil weevil and the attendant money
stringency.

on. I'VE have Florida on the south

capitalists all shaking the light fam
