RUTH: Remember, my dear. that
your husband is very young. as you
are, and thatsyou had hurt him. too.
He wanted to make a bond you could
not break. Yes, I do believe he
loves you. although, unfortunately,
his love is not, or was not, kind.
Write to him and tell him what
has happened. Then tell your father
the truth. You must announce your
secret marriage now. If your father
is angry. it will only be because he
loves you, so bear with him. I am
sure everything will turn out all
right. in time.

those counties will then rise up and
call them blessed.
"Those who have made the trip over
the roads through the forest reserva-
tion in southern Coconino county here
tofore have been calling those respon-
sible for the condition of the road
something else"
The Sun agrees more or less with
the Silver Belt editorial, but can hard
ly agree that the forest service is res
ponsible for the situation that con-
fronts Coconino county in the matter
of road building.
The forest service in the past two
years has spent approximately $4,000
on roads below Mormon Lake which
will eventually connect with Gila
county and are spending $4,000 this
year for continuing these roads. This
money is direct appropriation from
the forest service road fund. 1t has
nothing to do with the Z per cent road
funds or forest funds turned in to the
county.
These roads are not only built but
maintained by the forest service. If
Coconino county is short some $780,
900 in road funds next year, Coconino
county will be to blame for that. Or
the board of supervisors can add that
much to the county taxes if they have
to have it to build necessary roads
with.

THAN BEFORE in 200 YRS.

the sun, at that point in space where
his orbit and hers make their closest
approach.
although the apparent newcomer
is neither new nor intrinsicallv great,
he possesses for us an interest out
of all proportion to his size or his
relative Importance in the universe;
and this for two reasons: first. be-
cause he is of our own cosmic kin;
and secondly, because no other heav-
enly body, Venus and the moon alone
excepted, ever approaches us so near.
What is more, we see him at such
times better than we ever do Venus,
for the latter contrary to what her
name might lead one to expect, keeps
herself so constantly cloaked in clouds
that we are permitted only the most
meagre peeps at her actual surface;
while Mars, on the other hand, lets
US see him as he is, no cloud-veil of
his, as rule, hiding him from view.
He thus offers us effective opportuni-
ties for study at closer range than
does any other body in the universe
except the moon. And the moon balks
inquiry at the outset. For that body,
from which we might hope to learn
much, appears upon inspection to be,
cosmically speaking, dead. Upon her
silent surface next to nothing now
takes place save for the possible
crumbling in of crater wall. For
all practical purposes Mars is our
nearest neighbor in space. Of all
orbs' about US, therefore, he holds out
most promises of response to that
question which man instinctively
makes as he gaZes up at the stars:
What goes on upon all those distant
globes? Are they worlds, or are
they mere masses of matter? Are
physical forces alone at work there,
or has evolution begotten something
more complex, something not unakin
to what we know on earth as life?
1t is in this that lies the peculiar
interest of Mars"
The observational work on Mars at
Lowell observatory, and which has
been in progress for some months. in
cludes lines of research which have
been Systematically followed since the
observatory was founded by DR..
Lowell in 1894; lines that were deyel-
oped under his direction and still
newer lines which have more recently
been developed. These include ID
visual observations and measure
ments of the positions and changes
in surface features, ~ extensive
Photographic observations supple
menting the visual work for accurate
determination of the positions and the
photometry of the surface features.
(3) spectrum studies of the light of
the planets and (4) the important
new work of measuring the heat
which Mars radiates from his surface.
These lines of study are yielding IN
teresting results and are strengthen
ing in a most gratifying manner the
earlier conclusions of DR.. Lowell re-
garding the general world-like condi-I
tions prevailing on Mars. 1t will be
possible to give later an account OF
some of the particular observations
that have been made and the results
TO which they lead.

NEW SANTA FE DINING CAR
WILL BE BEST IN WORLD

A dining car service which will
eclipse anything of the kind in the
world will be placed on the transcon-
tinental limited of the Santa Fe IN
September, it is said.
These palatial cars will seat az
people, whereas existing cars seat 80
persons. B. P. Harvey has taken out
a patent on the cars, the patent COW
ering nine points. New buffet cars
also will be installed. The cars are
now being built, eighteen in all. One
diner and one buffet will be placed in
commission in September, and the 16
others will be placed as fast as they
are built.
The new dining cars will be 81 feet
long and have a crew of 10 men.
Existing cars have crews of 10 men.
The new cars will do away with the
standing and waiting in crowded
aisles for seats.
The kitchen-end of the diner will be
next the baggage car, whereas at
present the buffet car is next the bag
gage car, and the kitchen of the diner
next the first pullman, thus causing
the inconvenience of the crowded
aisles.
With the new cars the buffet will
be between the diner and the first
Pullman. Then the passengers may
pass through the buffet into the din
ing car Immediately to the tables,
through the front door, so to speak.

COOPERATIVE Prosper

Reports of co operative mar
keting associations in this State
show all that have organized
under the pEan r commended by
the Department of Ag' iculture
are prospecting. Altogether the
Department has organized 33 as
sociations and there are a number
of others in the State which have
not taken advantage of the De-
partment's facilities. There are
no reports covering their condi-
ton.
The Department of Agriculture
has strongly favored the policy
of organizing local co-operatives
to take charge of growing, f.
nancing. grading. packing and
shipping problems. 1t is urged
that these co operatives band
together and handle their pro-
ducts through all-the year-round
selling agency.
Department officials are strong
ly impressed by the success ;of
the California Fruit Exchange
which handles the products of
between 65 and 70 organizations.
1t is argued that such a selling
agency is strong enough to es-
tablish strong market connections
and can be in touch with condi-
tions through out the year. The
Department of Agriculture has
never felt that each small co op-
erative could successfully handle
it's own selling problem, especial
Iy if it only entered the market
for short period each year.

Labor Court

The Howell Barley labor bill,
held over by the last Congress
but to be considered early in De-
cember, provides for four nat
ional Boards of Adjustment with
an aggregate of 40 members
drawing salaries of $1,000 each,
four secretaries to the Adjust
ment Boards, salaries $4,000
each, in addition to office accom-
modat!ons and expense mot linn

taries. assistants, special ex-
perts, clerks and other employees

necessary for proper perform
ance of it's duties" without limit
all to be paid out of the Treas
ury of the United States.
The purpose of the bill is to do
away with the Railway Labor
Board and deprive the public Of
representation in the settlement
of railroad labor disputes.
While the employers are bound

findings, or even The offer to ar

vides that Nothing in this Act
shall be construed to require an
individual employee or suhordl-
nate official to render labor or
service without his consent, nor
to make the quitting of his labor
or service an illegal act. - This

Railway unions now existent

TOBACCO RAISERS
SEE BIG RETURNS
SOUTH GEORGIA GROWERS
EXPECT TO MARKET 25,0O0,OO0
POUNDS AND GET 100000.

South Georgia tobacco growers will
market at least 25,000,000 pounds of
bright leaf tobacco during the selling
season, which opens this year on Aug
ust 9th, in the opinion of demonstra-
tors. 1t is claimed that the tobacco
now being cured is OF as fine quality
as was ever produced in the state, and
will on its merits command high
prices. 1t is believed the crop will sell
for an average price in excess of 20
cents pound, This will mean that
tobacco will bring around seven mil
lion dollars to this section, enriching
scores of growers and stimulating
business in all lines.
One fthe situations favorable to
the South Georgia tobacco growers
is the fact that the crops in the Car
olinas are admittedly short. To begin
with there was a sharp reduction in
acreage and in recent weeks rain, hail
and wind storms have seriously dam
aged the tobacco in the Carolinas,
further reducing the possible yield.
This, demonstrators assert, makes it
almost certain that prices will be fully
as high as they were last season.

PEEK AT DEMOCRATS
STANDARD BEARER
DAVIS HAS A CROWN OF SNOW
WHITE HAIR, AND is NOT
CLASSED AS HANDSOME.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Ihe Good
Gray Candidate" is a title likely to be
appended to John W. Davis, the dem
ocratic choice for president, before the
campaign has progressed many weeks.
For the outstanding factor in Davis
appearance is his crown of snow-white
hair His face is that of the average
well-fed, well-kept 'smooth-shaven
man of 81, trifle ford after exertion
but with not too high color and de-
void of any wrinkling of age. His
white hair, however is that OF pa
triarch of the 70's.
Davis is a comfortable sort OF per-
son. Thoroughly at ease himself in
any company, he makes those around
him feel at ease He is also easy and
comfortable in his clothes, preferrlng
soft-collared shirts and roomy light
weight suits to the more dignlted ha-
-biliments of many neargreat lawyers.
This ease of bearing, which lends
him distinction in any garb and any
company, once led an English journal
ist to say of him that even at court
receptions and formal functions which
he attended as American ambassador
to Great Britain, where gold braid and
glittering uniforms are the rule and
where even our George Harvey ap-
peared in knee pants, Davis, in ordi-
nary evening dress, carried an air
which marked him as one OF the strlk-
ing figures in any group.
Notwithstanding descriptions by
the society writer's to the contrary,
Davis is not a handsome man. His
features are not sufficiently SYMMETRY
cal for that.
His forehead is too bulging, the
lines of his cheeks too hattened, the
mouth too thin and restrained to quail
ifv him in beauty contest. He is.
however, unquestionably man OF
striking appearance.
ANYHOW, in picking man to run
against Calvin Coolidge it was Tor
considered necessary to search Tor an
Adonis. Strength and personality were
more desirable qualifications, and Da,,
Wis supplies both of those in good
measure.
