CHAMBER WANTS
PICTURES FOR.
CITY PUBLICITY

Have you any pictures that might
be used in advertising Douglas and
this section of the southwest? The
Douglas Chamber of Commerce and
Mines is in position to secure a
liberal amount of very good publicity
at very modest cost form several
sources if it can secure suitable pic
lures to go with the articles.
The pictures are to be used in illus,
trated stories in various magazines
and through booklets being compiled
by the Southern Pacific company and
the U. S. department of agriculture.
Pictures most desired are those of
the sizes 9x5, SKI and Sx1O, of scenes
in the Huachucas, Chiricahuas and
other places of scenic beauty in this
vicinity.
The cost of obtaining the pictures
and the time necessary to secure them
would prevent their use in the arti-
cles. All pictures loaned the cham
Der of commerce for this purpose will
be returned to their respective own
ers in good condition.

GAMBLING WILL
NOT Be ALLOWED
IN Aqua PRIETA

open gambling will not be permit
ted in Aqua Prieta, according to the
concensus of opinion among govern
ment and public officials and busi-
ness men of the Mexican city For
weeks rumors have been prevalent in
Douglas and Aqua Prieta that gamb-
ling is to be permitted. While Mayor
Ernesto Boubion and the icty council
have as yet received no requests for
permits to open gambling establish
ments and have therefore taken no
action, it is quite certain that public
opinion is opposed to gambling.
"The Aqua Prieta chamber of com
merce is strongly opposed to the open
ing of gambling and will use all it's
Influence in the matter" Roberta
Breton, president of the organization,
stated Tuesday. THE people of Aqua.
Prieta feel the same way in the mat

statement to the press on the matter
he assured the Douglas representa-
tives that he was opposed to gamb-
ling and promised his assistance in
the matter.
According to Aqua Prieta officials
the move to establish gambling in
Aqua Prieta resulted when certain
gambling concessions were permitted
to operate during the Fiesta San
Ramon at Nacozari last week. Those
in favor of gambling brought fortn
the argument that if gambling is
permitted in Nacozari, it should be
permitted in Aqua Prieta. Aqua
Prieta authorities stated Tuesday that
all gambling in Nacozari has been
stopped since the close of the fiesta
an dthat it will not be permitted TO
reopen.
While the Mexicang immigration au.
thorities decline to make definite
statement on the matter, it is the
opinion of. both Aqua Prieta and
Douglas business men that the open
ing of gambling would result in ar
immediate closing of the interna-
tional lines with resultant loss or
business to merchants on both sides
of the line

Erminc and Mink for Spring Wraps
BY MARY MARSHALL.

longer than that was very bad house
keeping.
But those French women wore fur
neck pieces in Midsummer-and after
YOU got used to the strangeness OF 1t,
you had to admit that the effect was
not unpleasant. But no one thought
then that we Americans would even
tually become as addicted to the prac-
tice of wearing furs in Summer as any
Continental.
One thing that makes the wearing
of fur in warm weather so much
more pleasant at the present time is
that the furriers have now at their
command a considerable list of furs
that are especially appropriate for
warm weather--light, soft peltry that
adds very little warmth to the gar
ment which it adorns. Frequently
these furs are those worn by fur-bear-
ing animals in Summer. summer

cause 1t is selected by us for summer.
but because it is the coat with which
nature provides the ermine in warm
months when his white coat has
turned a pleasing brown. However,
even Winter ermine is not too heavy
for warm weather wear so both types
of this luxurious peltry are chosen for
Spring and Summer wraps.
Just at present the Smartest of
Spring wraps are usually trimmed
with fur. Very fine soft mink skins
are also used rather extensively in
trimming wraps for warmer weather.
Some of these wraps are of kaSh-
mir, satin or faille. Others, like the
one shown in the sketch, are of
georgette. This is of beige trimmed
with Summer ermine.

CHAPTER XXI.
Conscience.

At Perry's words chill little fear
settled around Marthas heart. This
man in whom Natalie seemed so inter
ested was married. In that case Ma
talie was playing with fire, she was in
danger. And yet even as this thought
occurred to Martha, flush crept up
into her cheeks and she avoided
Perry's eyes.
Was Natalie any more in danger
than she herself was? And how could
she reason with Natalie, advise her as
a mother. should, when she herself was
going everywhere with a man who
was not her husband?
She knew exactly what would hap
pen if she attempted to talk to Ma
talie. The child would open her eyes
wide and laugh.
But, mother, what about yourself?"
she would say lightly. At that mo-
ment Martha suffered a reaction that
was almost decisive in ending her
| friendship with Perry. Almost. but
not quite.
When the curtain rose on the third
act Martha's thoughts were so turned
in on herself that she hardly heard the
words of the play.
She was just beginning to realize
how much Perry's friendship meant 70
her, and just how difficult it would be
for her to give him up. How could
she let him go out of her life? How
could she take up the dull routine OF
her days without Perry? 1t wasn't
fair to ask her to do that!
And yet the thought of Natalie lay
heavy on her heart. Natalie, her baby

and underdeveloped and haven't small

Whose Fault?

poor mother, nervous and mustered,
with dinner time so near and no sup
plies in.
1T isn't my fault your letters aren't

But that didn't brace up her EN-

that very minute.
Don't blame me that the dinners

1.-The vegetables never arrived at all
and it was too late to go for them"
Still the poor yOunS husband, tired
and hungry after Il days work. didn't
brighten up at this information.
Sorry if this dress looks awfully
messy, but it can't be helped Esther

And Tom was just as annoyed over
her untidy appearance as he had
been before she told him 1t wasn't
her fault.
Now, of course, all these four
things might very we'll be nobody's
fault-might have been quite unavoid-
able-but it's the attitude of the four
speakers which needs to be changed.
All four Of these people felt that
in exonerating themselves of any
blame they had done all that was
necessary.
They were sor1-y that things hadn't
panned out as well as could he eX-
pected, but as long as they were not
to blame. as long as they couldn't
reasonably be taken to task. they
were satisfied.
It's this attitude that makes poor

Unless you feel a certain RESPONSE

come what may, your business. what
ever it may be, will be in disorder.
If you have the idea that by shift.

failure.

finding that her typewriter was on

The housewives thought was: "Too
bad about the vegetables, but I'll just
explain to John that l haven't been

And the younger fapper decided
that her simple explanation would

Nothing let's you out Of doing your

thinking that way youl have fewer
occasions in which to shift blame to
somebody else.
