AN ARIZONA DESERT IN CALI.
FORNIA

The Los Angeles Times a few
days ago offered US a small sec
ton Of the California desert in
part payment, for the Grand
Canyon which<it and other Cali
fornians have been for years
trying to palm off upon unsus
pecting tourists as one of the
attractions of the Southland, /"
that is, Southern California, the
Metropolitan District.
A week ago the Times under
the head of Three Months in
Desert to Make a Picture" said:
Three months in the most desc
late country in the Western
hemisphere on the limitless sand
dunes of the Arizona Desert near
the Mexican border, were spent
by 1000 men in order that Beau
Geste" might appear on the
screen.
The fact is, this Arizona
Desert" is in California. It is
there that the sand dunes are,
with their similitude to parts of
the Sahara which the makers of
the film wished to depict. These
dunes are not far from Arizona,
but a broad river flows between
them and Arizona. And that is
not the worst OF California, for
above them lies the terrible
Death Valley, the most desolate
region in America. No other
section of the Great American
Desert" in it's time so inspired
terror to emigrants.
Arizona has deserts. it is true,
but the worst of them have been
conquered. Our remaining des
erts may be called decent des
erts." They are picturesque
and we are proud of them. They
are the admiration of tourists.
They are criss crossed with con.
venient and pleasant highways,
The widest of them may be
crossed within a couple of hours,
for they are broken by ever
spreading cultivated regions.
But the greater part of what
remains of what was known as
the Great American Desert
which travellers approached and
traversed with dread and where
the pathways were marked by
the white bones of horses and
cattle and mounds and crosses
for men and women and child
rem, lies west of the Colorado
riven, beyond the confines OF
Arizona.
Much of it is unconquerable
and unbeautiful, in sharp con
trast to our Arizona deserts with
their wealth of desert plants.

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
In reviewing the murder case OF
Gray and Snyder, of Dreher and
Leboeuf, one sees at first naught
save horror and sin from which the
soul shrinks. Yet even in these
depths of darkness, these sloughs of
depravity, there shines a ray of
beauty and light. For did not Mrs.
Judd Gray and Mrs. Thomas E.
Dreher sit each day beside their err
ring husbands during those har-
rowing days when both men were
condemned to death?
1t is a beautiful truth, and one
that cannot be refuted, that for
every woman who sinks into in
iquity there are two who walk ever
in the paths of virtue. For every
wife who is unfaithful there are
ten whose love is as steadfast as
the stars. For every wicked soul
housed in a feminine body there
abide among us many more who
will cleave to their loved ones
through disasters until death.
Wicked in Limelight
1t may be natural for us to judge
womanhood by these hectic ex-
amples, these Borgias of the sex,
who get into the public prints be-
cause of their dire deeds, but it is
a mistake to do so. Because in this
world it is the wicked who always
get most of the advertising. Crimes
that are shouted to the nation, that
are emblazoned in the headlines,
are but the exceptions that prove
the rule. Far more frequent are
the gentle deeds that women do,
and far more numerous are the
tears that fall in secret from wom-
ans eyes. tears that are caused be-
cause they love men too dearly,
The weeping wife of DR.. Drehel
Of Franklin will follow him TO. the
scaffold Will her fidelity not over
shadow the crime committed by
Mrs. Leboeuf? viii her love blot
out for our sex the deed of the sin
full woman?
Good Little Noted
And few printed words will be in
scribed for her compared to those
that advertise Mrs. Leboeut. Hell
heart will ache without newspaper
notoriety, and though her life has
been blasted by this deed, few tears
will fall because of that. For she
is merely the faithful wife, the
woman who gets little praise and
no advertising and yet who is to be
found all over the world easing the
pain, smoothing the path, carrying
the burdens of those she loves, as
faithful in the shadows as in the
sunshine of life. When you think
about women think sometimes OF
her, this unsung heroine to whom
no monuments are ever erected, but
without whom life would be a
dreary affair.

No Children Tnr

Having padded the bachelor and
demanded a good big tax from him,
Hungary is now about to enforce a
tax upon all childless married cou-
pies, the proceeds to be used for edu-
cation, social welfare and other
needs of the state.
There's funny illogical reasoning
here. If the government investi-
gates, it would probably learn that
the very reason for its need of or
phanages, charities, old peoples
homes, feeble-minded institutes, ct
al and more al, is family over-pro-
duction, The very people who tax a
state to the hilt because Of ignor-
ance and stupidity are not penalised.
The people who spare the state are
the ones who pay for the others.

Flat Haircuts
BY HEDDA HOYT
United Press Fashion Editor

If you worry over tfines -.
r. Keeping up with fashions Is bore
rake a hitch In your suspenderS
W Xna wsh haicons n eort you still
scorel
AS long as the skirt is short and
the hair is fiat to the head, you're
in style. Necklines may vary, bole-
ros may be unheard OF; tiers'
fiounces and flares may flop where
they will, but if the skirt is short
you'll pass muster without being
shot at providing ofscourse, that the
hair is worn as fiat as an ear at the
sides and back.
Many a smart little Miss puts over
the modern style with a two and a
half yard remnant of cloth. The
average yardage worn by the flap
per, including undergarments, is less
than six yards. Formerly 1t required
that amount to make dress. Style
today depends upon shortage of ma
terial and shortage of skirt-length.
When manufacturers of women's
clothing found that they could
skimp on material and still COM
mand the same prices for clothes
they started something which the
cloth manufacturers are now striv-
ing to stop. Women are in league
with the clothing manufacturers
since they have found that the
fewer the better" holds good where
yardage is concerned. The shorter
and scantier dresses are, the more
comfortable they are and the easier
and cheaper they are to make. The
fact that modern dresses could be
copied so cheaply by home SEAM
stresses caused dress manufacturers
to put out a line of modern-priced
dresses. Thus we have the popular
SIS frocks for all occasions.
When the times comes for longer
and wider skirts the price of dresses
will probably soar upwards. Even
trimming details have been lacking
greatly during the short skirt wave.
This fact also, has made the copy
ing Of dresses easier. 1t is predicted
that winter frocks, though short as
to hens, will again resort to en-
broidery, beadwork and other trim
ming details. But that's future
worryl While the summer is here
all that's required is to be short
skirted and fiat coiffured.
