Mrs. Kate Goodrich, Librarian:
May has been good month There
were more books ingoing and out
going in the past month than any
month in several years. If there is
any depression in business or any
thing like that it is usually reflected
in lessening of the number of
books read each month According
to the figures for the past month, no
such condition exists in the library.
One evening recently nearly 300 books
were handled in two hours. The
library is trying to get together as
much material, old and new, as pos
sible on Arizona and the southwest
There has been received recently VOL

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Sunday, September 4.

Astrologers read tomorrow as day
unfavorable in planetary direction. a
| time to proceed with caution in all
| important matters.
Under this rule of the stars, a
critical and exacting mold may de-
velop, and for this reason the utmost
self control should be exercised.
| 1t is wise to avoid arguments while
this configuration lasts.
The sway is supposed to encourage
| wandering thoughts and to interfere
with concentration.
1t is encouraging to learn from the
seers that there is to be revival or
intense interest in spiritual things.
New teachers are to gain a great
vogue in the next few months, 1t Is
foretold.
Peace. movements of many sorts
are to be launched in the Winter
and certain of them are to be greatly
miSinterpreted.
Women's organizations are to con-
tend over world problems that pre-
sent old issues in new guise, it is
prophesied.
Fashions are to change sharply.
astrologers predict. and there is to
be a revolt against anything mascu-
line for women.
Airplane development is to cause
some sort Of contention among varl-
Gus departments of the Government
it is prognosticated.
Persons whose birth date it is may
have rather hard pull against COM
petition in the coming year.
Children born on that day probably
will make money easily. They may

Now that was very tantalizing. You
see, Cubby could smell that sugar and
it seemed to him that never in all his
life had he wanted anything as he
wanted that sugar. Yet he hesitated.
He would start to go forward and
then retreat. He walked in complete
circle around Farmer Browns Boy.
and all the time he whimpered and
whined and leased and begged. as no
one but a little Bear could.
But Farmer Browns Boy wouldn't
give him a crumb. He must take It
from that extended hand. or go with
out He couldn't go without. He
knew it and Farmer Browns Boy
knew it. So after while Cuby came
near enough to put his little nose in
Farmer Browns Boys hand and with
that long tongue of his licked one OF
those pieces of sugar into his mouth.
1t was a bigger piece than any he
had had before. One minute later he
was standing up. holding onto Farmer
Browns Boys arm with both little
paws and greedily licking up the last
crumbs of sugar from the hand ex-
tended to him.

more in evidence than now. This size
varies from the wee bedside table to
the small appearing but actually large
Grop-leaf tables that take up so little
room that they come under the head

tables may be found in every room in
a house and on verandas. They fit in
marvelously with the demands of dec

convenience.
