L MERCHANTS
FAIR EXHIBITS
Are ATTRACTIVE
Demonstrations of Merch-
andise Go on Daily in
Agricultural Hall

There are IL merchants exhibits in
the agricultural building at the seventh
annual Cochise county fair These
are the finest merchants exhibits that
have ever been displayed at the fair.
They have taken thought and work
in their make up and are interesting,
artistic and educational.
One of the largest of the number
is the Arizona Edison company booth
which extends through one of the
center aisles of the building and in
which a large number of appliances
are exhibited There is a washing
machine running steadily at one end
of this exhibit and there are many
other things operated by electricity
In connection with the Arizona Edison
booth there is the Rockgas booth
which displays the newly discovered
and commercialized RockgaS in it's
containers, operating a stove, hot
water heater and other devices. This,
added to the regular Edison company
exhibits is a very attractive display.
The Arizona Edison company is
furnishing pure drinking water in this
booth and is also furnishing ice for
the various needs Of the agricultural
building.
The Arizona Gypsum Plaster COM
Dany has very attractive booth on
the corner next to the main entrances.
This booth features the gypsum build
ing materials and there are revolving
panels showing on each two different
AypeS and colors of Surfacing for house
xrTo1 ic nlc11l Tod to IN
Spire the home builder.
The Gadsden Beauty Shop has a
booth of interest to women and girls,
in which the various styles or hair
dressing are shown and many creams
and lotions are set out.
There are two coffee booths in the
agricultural building One gives a fine
cup of hNDt NJ j. 3. coffe to each Wis
itor while the other dispenses that we'll
known beverage which is Good to
the Last Drop" and is labeled Max
well House Both of these booths are
very attractive and the odor of the
fresh coffee adds greatly to that at
traction. They are well decorated,
neatly arranged and those in charge
have a smile and refreshments for
everyone.
The Phelps Dodge store features
radios in its ribbon draped booth. The
AtWater Kent radio is set up here and
the long red streamers run down from
the corner of the booth radiating to
the edges of the floor There is some
lhing very tasty about the simple
decorative scheme used here and it
has been so arranged that no attend
INT is necessary to attract attention
10 the radio.
The Douglas Hardware has a booth
showing farm machinery and a fine
little engine which runs smoothly and
! is advertised as self oiler. This ex-
hibit is of more interest to the aver
age farmer than any other in the
building for there is late model
moving machine in the booth and a
| plough beside the snappy little engine

RARE ART OBJECTS
IN BEEHIVE TOMB
Find Fills Antiquarians
With Delight.

Golden drinking cups, necklaces oil
gold rosettes, silver signet rings,
carved agates, and other ornaments
of a workmanship that challenges
comparison with the best jewelry OF
today. and yet made at least 5000
years ago, have come to light in an
ancient beehive tomb in Greece. The
treasure was found by a group OF
Swedish Psychologists, headed by Prof
A1el w. Person Of Upsala univer'
sity. The art objects, contemporary
with the tomb Of King TutankhameD
in Egypt, are now locked in special
safe in the Greek museum at Nauplia.
Usually the beehive tombs have
been plundered Of all contents cen
turtles ago, but this one was intact,
and the antiquities placed as memen-
toes with the bodies Of a king and
queen and princess were most con-
vincing proof Of the high culture that
prevailed in Greece during the Ny
cenean age, or before Homer. Pic
lures Of such animals as lions and
bulls decorated the golden vessels and
rings, while the war scenes, artistical-
~ carved In the small agate stones on
the signet rings, aroused the imme-
diate admiration of the excavators.
Curiously enough, the design Of an
octopus on the bottom Of the kings
drinking cup reminded Professor Pers-
son, he said In his lecture in Sweden,
Of Japanese art, while certain pre-
historic houses found in Greece recall
the cubistic effects that ultra-mOdern
architects achieve with REINFORCED
concrete.
Originally the existence Of bee
hive tomb had been reported to the
Greek authorities at Mycenae by a
guide named Orestes who, while con-
Quoting an American woman to the
ruined Mycenean fortress of Midea.
had noticed peasants removing fiat
stones from a tobacco field near Den
dra, less than mile from Midea.
From his father, Dimitri, who had
helped excavate beehive tombs in his
youth, Orestes had heard Of possible
treasure finds under such stones, and
when the Swedish Psychologists were
called in by Doctor Bertos, the Greek
ephor, they quickly confirmed his sus-
picions.
Though caved in, the tomb had not
been robbed, and when cleared Of its
debris it measured eight meters in
width and about the same distance in
height, the vault being made Of fiat,
unworked stones. Situated on a slight
incline, the tomb was entered by a
passage about forty-eight feet long
and seven feet wide. In the chamber
itself was found limestone floor and
in shafts about a foot and one-half
below the floor were encountered
elongated stone slabs which covered
the graves. Underneath the stones
were layers Of clay into which were
mixed bits Of charcoal which proved
that human hands had once handled
