JEFFERSON DAY. TO

ALL DEMOCRATS
One Hundred Eighty fourth
Anniversary of the Birth
of the Author of Declare
ton of independence to be
Remembered by Nation.

WASHING1 ON-The 184th ami
versary of the birth of Thomas JEFF
ferson, April 13ln, will be more widely
observed this year than probably ever
before All over the Union, in hun
dreds of cities and counties, Jeffer-
son Day rallies will be held under
the auspices of Democratic clubs to
pay honor to the memory of the auth
or of the Declaration of independence
and the founder of the Democratic
Party.
Early in February, letters were
sent out by chairman VIM. A. Old
field, of the Democratic national Con-
gressional Committee, inviting at
tention to Jefferson Day and suggest
ing that meetings be held to observe
the day by those who cherish the
principles which Jefferson gave Ito
America and the world, to rededicate
themselves to the cause to which he
devoted his life, that of popular, free,
enlightened and honest government.

creed, as expressed in lis first in
augural address, will be read and men
and women speakers will discuss
Jeffersonian principles of Democracy
as they apply to present day problems
Some of the most prominent men and
women in the party will be among the
speakers, and a part of the Jefferson
creed to which many of them will
particularly address themselves as
having an especial appeal at this time
is that declaring for equal and exact
justice to all men, of whatever state
or persuasion, religious or political;
peace, commerce and honest friend
ship with all nations" At these
meetings, principles and not personal
tiles will be discussed. From them
the cause of Democracy is expected
to gain an impetus that will carry into
the national campaign of 1928.

Making Your Own Hat

There is scarcely an article of sew
ing on which woman can save SO
much money as in making her own
hat Yet hat has great deal to
do with the appearance of a person,
and unless you are sure of your taste,
you had better get ready-made one,
for the better hats are planned by
experts.
If, however, woman is naturally
artistic and gives study to the styles,
there is no reason why she could not
make her own hat. This season is
particularly favorable to home made
hats, as so many of them are made
of silk, over buckram frames, or en-
tirely soft
Before deciding upon the design
for a hat, one should consider what
type of hat she needs, whether a
street hat" that is, more on the
tailored order, to be worn with suits,
for travelling, and shopping; or
whether one wants it TO be worn for
more dressy occasions, as to church,
an afternoon tea; or is it to be
theatre hat; or for motoring?
The age of the person wearing the
hat is a fact to be reckoned with;
the size and relation of the hat to
the complete figure; the shape of
the face and neck and style of hair.
The effect of the hat front, sides and
back, should all be studied. In
choosing materials, the color of eyes,
hair, and the complexion should be
taken into account, as we'll as the
gowns with which it will be worn
1t is a very important matter to
determine the artistic proportions of
crown and brim win their relation
to the face and the size of the wearer,
and to one another. An inch on one
or the other like an inch on the end
of mans nose, may make the diff
ference between beauty and carl
cature. For this reason 1t is well to
buy ready-made frame, in which
these proportions are studied out; or
to copy some hat you are sure Of
How much trimming to use, what
color and shape, and where to put it
on, is a matter requiring thought
the temptation is % Over-decorate,
to use too much trimming because
you have it, and reasoning that if
one rose is pretty, two would be
prettier.
Metallic and straw braids are pop

by the yard. With hats made of
strips, and all sorts of odd shapes
of silk, it seems almost as though
one could CLEAN the materials from
the scrap bag, and have a hat to
match a gown, at lnat

Shall We Buy Package
Food2

Package goods have improved the
quality of many foods. Crackers are
more crisp and fresh and do not
taste of some neighboring food, if
we buy them in a package; and many
other foods are of better quality
when they come in packages. The
brand is usually printed on the pack
age and, if the housewife likes it,
she may order more of the same
kind. Package foods save handling
by workers in the store, whose hands
may not always be clean; and they
eliminate the danger of petty thefts,
as might happen if one orders a
quarters worth of peaches.
There is no doubt of it, however,
that bulk goods are usually cheaper
than package goods. The package
does not always contain full pound,
as one can learn by reading the label,
but often only. twelve or fourteen
ounces. When we buy dried beef
in glass containers, we pay for the
container, the freight on the heavy
glass, and the risk of breakage.' We
get more dried beef for our money
if we buy it in the bulk. The same
is true of bacon, oatmeal, peanut
butter, cheese or any other package
goods.
AS to cleanliness, though the pack
age is usually packed by machinery
Untouched by human hands, as the
slogan is, yet there may be dirt in
it before it was packed and we may
find straw in the cereal or a chip in
the raisinS
Sometimes poorer qualities are
packed in fancy packages and so run
off, which would not sell we'll if
open to the view of the shopper 1t
is not unusual to buy better dates
and figs in the bulk than in the pack
age. In buying fruits, the small
package is much more expensive than
the bulk, as the small basket of
peaches or tomatoes.
In buying for family of five or
six, it is possible to save almost a
dollar a day by buying in the bulk
such articles as cheese, bacon, corn
meal, cocoa, dates, crackers and cof-
fee.
Store keepers have learned more
about handling foods in the past
twenty years, and today they are
kept well screened, under glass, COW
cred in boxes and with waxed papers,

OLA 1000 YEARS
OLD UNEARTIED IN
CAVE NEAR TUCSON

TUCSON-President Bryon Cum
ming, University of Arizona archaeol-
ogist, has pronounced an Ola found
last week in Colossal cave near Tue
son to be more than 1000 years old.
The piece of pottery is in, excellent
condition, and the contour of the
curves unusually perfect. In size and
shape the Ola is different in a marked
degree from any of the specimens
now held at the University Museum.
Hydro-chloric acid was used by
the archaeologist to remove the stain
caused by heavy SCOT from many
years use over fires. 1t was hoped
to find some decorations on the pot
terry, but when the stain was removed,
the Ola was found to be plain
The discovery of the Ola and the
finding of guaraches or sandals woven
from yucca fibre proves that Apaches
were not the only inhabitants of the
cave, as heretofore supposed. :

QUICKSAND IS
ENCOUNTERED
IN OIL WELL
Well Will Be Drilled by the
Pinal Company and
Casing Installed

In the issue of the Arizona Record.
OF Friday, April LIST, appeared the fol-
lowing item relative to recent de-
velopments in the oil drilling situa-
ton in Graham county:
Favorable showings of oil are re-
ported from the well of the Pinal
Oil company, fourteen miles north of
Bowie, according to recent visitors
at the well. This well is being drill
ed under sub-drilIing contract on
256O-acre tract of government land
held by the Bear Springs Oil and Gas
company of Globe.
Several weeks ago drilling was
completed to depth of 500 feet.
drilling being ended in a quicksand
formation. The next morning on 60
ing to the well, VIM. Crawford. in
charge of, drilling operations for the
Plnal company found that the quick
sand had been forced up in the we'll
l57 feet. Since that time the quick
sand has gradually been forced to-
wards the top and at last reports it
was within 60 feet of the top of the
we'll.
After completing his derrick for
handling casing Mr. Crawford is now
ready to install 14-inch casing and
redrill the we'll
The quicksand was forced to the
top by gas pressure, according to ex-
perts, and big oil showings have
been obtained from bailers. The
slush pit is said to be covered with
oil. Several experts have declared
that the showings thus far are suf-
ficient to guarantee a producing
well. Bubbles of gas in the sand can
be seen with mirror.
The first of two wells to be drill
ed in the Bear Springs district by
interests represented by M Trum-
bull and III. T. Proctor, who tested
the region with the Trumbull oil de-
tector, will be spudded in by May
15 The rig is expected to arrive at
Pima by April Is. These wells Will
be drilled on patented lands leased
by Messrs. Trumbull and Proctor.

Storing the Heavies

Before storing away the blankets
and the wooden garments, clean them
thoroughly. Moths attack soiled
spots first. 1t is good stunt to
have your winter coats dry-cleaned
in the spring, sealed in moth-proof
bags, and hung away for the sum
mer. They will usually need clean
ing in the fall anyway, and that is
too late, from the moth standpoint.
Cedar saw dust, napt1-alene flakes
or balls and many other moth repel-
liant preparations are on the market
to be sprinkled in the trunks in which
you store the winter clothes. But
you must be sure there are no moths
in the things you store away. for
these mal-odorus chemicals are mere
ly repellant; they do not kill moths
nor prevent new ones from Matching
out.
Every garment should be we'll sun
ned and aired before being stored
away Pockets should be turned
wrong side out. Things hung on the
line outdoors should be brought in
two hours before sunset, as moths
seek their nights quarters early, and
might lodge in some of those very
things you are airing. Blankets and
everything which can be Numbered
should be so treated before they are
packed away.
Porch rugs usually get pretty
shabby looking by the end of the
summer. You will notice. it more
when you drag them out from their
winter storage. They may be fresh
ened by painting with strong dyes.
Dye, like charity, covereth multi
tude of sins.

DISPLAY.
\ IS PLANNED

Emerson and Orme. Stanley HOr-
ner and Dick Murphy, local Buick
dealers, are completing arrangements
Tor the Buick autumn display which
will be held in their respective" show
rooms November IL to 10. The pub
lie is invited to attend this unusual
display, inspect the attractive COL
ored models and enjoy the entertain
ment program.
The Buick autumn display will be
held simultaneously in hundreds OF
dealers showrooms throughout the
country. An important feature OF
the display is the formal introduce
ton of the new Buick de luxe models
which will compare in interest with
Bucks 1928 announcement which
attracted more than 100000 per-
sons to Buick showrooms during late
July.
De luxe Bucks embody all the
features for which Buick is famous,
plus captivating array of special
equipment. This equipment includes
handsome wire wheels, front fender
wells and spare wheel locks, trunk
rack, full rear bumpers to replace
fender guards, and other optional
Items.

lines, and Respondent d1co colors,
these special accessories result in a
line of motor cars rivailngs in per.
fprmance, beauty, captivating style
and extreme driving ease anything
ever offered, regardless of price.
/. Persons who have not yet had an
opportunity to examine Buick for
1928 closely will find attendants
ready to point out its many improve
nents.
These models were a sensation
from coast to coast. literally taking
the country by storm. Built on the
famous Buick sealed chassis and
powered with the Buick six.cylinder
Valve-in-head engine whose vibra-
tionless performance startled the in
dustry last year, thu new Bucks
offer such additional features as an
entirely new interior treatment,
greater getaway and power, en-
HANGED beauty, and a degree of rid
Ing and driving ease unapproached
elsewhere.
Bucks new double drop frame,
which achieved low body lines with
out sacrifice of head room or road
clearance, and it's re-deSlgned canti-
lever springs, co-ordinated with shock
absorbers front and rear on all mod
els, are two outstanding means by
which Bucks advance in value was
accomplished. They are, however,

ENGINE WORRY,
WINTER ONE

The approaching winter season
brings to mind the need Of precau-
ton for all motorists against the
eveF-present carbon monoxide gas
that turks in the exhaust of all
motor cars propelled by gas engines.
Though the results of this deadly
gas ara known to most motorists
the fatalities that occurred last
year were mostly due to lack of
care in guarding against the serious
consequences Of iHhaling the car
bon monoxide fumes.
While authentic figures of carbon
monoxide fatalities for the entire
country are not available, there
were 90 deaths last winter in the
city OF Detroit and so far this
season in Detroit there have been
three fatalities.

NEW RECORD

II. s, Johnston, assistant to w. c.
Durant, announces that during
October, 1927, the, large Star plant
at Elizabeth. New Jersey, built
and shipped out more Star cars
than during any previous October
in the company's history.
This is the second consecutive
month in which Star has broken

face of the fact that the automobile
industry as a whole has shown
falling off in production during the
past two months.

and resumed active participation in
the building Of the Star car, he
