Colored Paper Cutouts
Get Into Art Gallery

Paris.-Colored paper "cutouts"
have graduated into the art gallery
class.
An entire exhibition of pictures
made by all shapes and kinds of col
ored paper pasted on canvas instead
of spots of paint, has attracted much
attention here.
Nine. Choumansky, deprived Of
paints during the revolution in Rus
STA, turned to paper and critics ap-
prove the softness and the beauty of
the technique she has developed.
Such a method, much more geo.
metrical in outline, has been used by
cubists, but the painting" Of marines
and landscapes with irregular bits Of
colored paper is greeted as some
thing quite new.

is no cure for whooping cough, it usu-
ally runs its course, but relief can be
given and its duration shortened. A

of President Coolidge, who Will con-
fer tomorrow with Senator Smoot, OF
Utah, one ,of the republican leaders,

Still unconvinced that convening

Mississippi valley flood problem, the
president is listening to the requests
pending more definite reports OH what
is needed in the way OF flood control

the desire OF congress TO adjourn
early on years when the entire house

next year, and he realizes an early
session might help clear the heavy
program in prospect for congress next
winter.
Senator Smoot is chairman of the
finance committee which will have
control in the senate OF the prospec
tive tax reduction bill. A desire to
get an early start OH this measure as
well as to dispose OF the flood legis-
lation are expected to influence him
! toward the early meeting.
The president believe it will take
years to execute a flood control pro-
gram and he doesn't believe a month

regard. However, the demand for a
special session on account OF the
Mississippi disaster continued to be

in their Bellanca plane Columbia this
evening.
It was real welcome for the delayed

many rows deep along the fence en-
closing the immense field.
Yesterdays anxiety gave place to
happy confidence, the drowsy lasSitude
of those who had kept vigil all night
turned to joyousness, and wan express
sions gave way to happy laughing faces.
A touch of carnival was added when
about 5 o'clock brass banu, in guady
flaming red Hussar uniforms, With
gilded drapery, marched on to the
ground and played American and Ger

Excitement reached fever pitch when

police on Tempelhofer coming tower
had sighted the Columbia. Eager eyes,
in thousands of cases aided by power

sky, small specks became visible.
Nearer and nearer they approached;
bigger and bigger, they grew rapidly,
until even the naked eye could dis

FATE OF TOWN

OF City, w. w. Windham
Says

Douglas is at the crossroads. With.
in a few weeks the people OF this
town are going to decide whether oe
not Douglas is to become one OF the
.1eally important and widely known
cities Of the southwest. Their sup,
port CT lack of support OF the men
here will tell the story" said W.. w.
WindhAn1, Southern Pacific agent,
when asked his opinion of the pro-
posal to build a modern tourist notei
here.
If the people OF Douglas will not
support the leading business ana pro-
fessional men of this city in their
endeavor TO promote hotel here,
they tacitly admit they have no am.
bition to make 6f this better and
more progressive place in which tc
live. The opportunity TO build this
modern tourist hotel and place it un-
der management OF such a widely
known hotel chain as the Hamilton
company Of California and Arizona
is one Of the best that will ever ocnle
to this city.

Douglas in the list OF progressive and
growing cities of this section OF the
United States Failure to build the
hotel will stamp it as town OF the
desert, lacking the business acumen
and enterprise to grasp and climb
the ladder of success and prosperity
when planted at its feet.
MY work as agent here and in
ether cities has brought me in con-
tact with thousands OF men and
women travelling fer pleasure, recrea-
ton and health. The first question
they ask concerning a town or city
is relative to its hotel accammoda-
tions. If informed they are poor.
many st once change their itinerary
and go to a town that has good
hotel accommodations.
IF a person in a distant city
should ask ticket agent concerning
the hotel accommodations in Doug
las, the answer would be discourag-
ing. Railroad representatives are
bound to send their passengers to
tho places and the sort OF accommo-
dations for which they are looking.
And the travelling public wants good
hotels in which to live.

marriage, that he was extremely
jealous and criticized, nagged and
scolded her frequently without
prOvOcatiOn. She further charges
that he showed "an austerity of
temper, rudeness of language and
want of civil attention" and that
he sought to dictate to her in a
fashion to which she was not
accustomed.
Reachi, when approached for a
statement, had nothing to say,
other than to remark: "AlI state
mentS regarding the divorce action
should come from Miss Ayres,''
and that he would approve them
all beforehand.
Reachi formerly was purchasing
agent for the National Artillery

the Mexican consular service i'm

the cOnsulates at Los Angeles,
Douglas, Ariz., and other points
