HOLIDAY WEEK
With PATIENTS
A MERRY TIME

After the experiences of Chris mas
week, patients at the Cochise county
hospital. entertained very we'll defined
feeling that there are worse things
than being in a good county hospital.
Their holidays were literally jammed
rull of entertainment with numerous
remembrances in the form of gifts.
There was q visit by the Girl Re-
serves of Warren on December %. The
girls brought favors for every patient.
Then on December "a, there was a
Thy the Rainbow Girls of Douglas
who came to sing carols. More carol
singers came on Christmas day, this
line the EpworthianS of the First
Methodist church. But they did lot
more than cheer with song for before
they had gone they presented the pa
tientS with box of oranges.
The nurse in charge saw to it that
the hospital was suitably decorated for
the holiday. The main hall and din
ing room were especially attractive, a
large artificial chimney with fire
place for Santa's use was arranged
and q great Christmas tree was put
to place for the gifts. 1t stood directly
in front of the main entrance.
Sacks filled with candy, 1oranges,
nuts and ether Christmas good things
were arranged for each patient.
The Kiwanis club and the Boy Scouts
band brought more cheer and music
for the people at the hospital and ii
w2s while this contingent was at the
hospital that Santa Claus made his
official appearance, literally coming
down the chimney. Most of the gifts
he distributed had been donated by
different organizations from Bisbee
and Douglas and also from individuals
Following the distribution of Santa
Claus bounty there was a visit OF
the colored boys quartet from Camp
Jones. They sang number of songs
that were greatly enjoyed by the
patients.
And after the soldier boys had con-
cluded their program, the Mexican in
vaders appeared. But it was friendly
invasion, being only Jack GoldStein's
orchestra from the international cafe
With Jack came Bud Green of the
White Horse cafe, who sang severa
songs.
Finally, DR.. E. w. Adamson, who
performed the role of Santa Claus ir
costume, resumed his normal appear
ance in business apparel and made q
brief address in which he thanked al
and slndry for their kind acts in help
ing to make Christmas Of 1927 day
of happiness and good cheer at the
Cochise county hospital. and then, al
2:30 p. M, came the feast of Christmas
when the dinner was .served to the
patients and hospital staff.
Among the things presented to the
! hospital were:
| Sweaters, wool sacks, outing flame

Mutual Surnrise

"The servant problem" remarked
Leroy Strang, lecturer on social prob
lens, has always been vexine
one in America. Really good trained
servants resent service in the homes
of the upstart newly rich and, natur-
ally, all families resent the unframed
servant who neither knows his duties
nor his place.
"a new maid, receiving. a letter
from the postman, took it up to the
library and handed it to her mistress
Marie, exclaimed the lady, don't you
know that you are supposed to bring
in the letters en- a tray?'
Eyes said Marie, pertly, but /
didn't know that you knew it.

Passno was arrested at three o'clock
Saturday morning when police were

act of attempting to siphon gasoline
from a car parked there. He was
charged with attempting to steal
gasoline and; was jailed
Officers yesterday investigated the
man and his car but reported that
everything was apparently in order.
The story the man told was that he

oline and money at the same time.
The case will probably come to trial

today It is. the first day they will be
entitled to first attention in looking
UP dates. When they are studied they
will disclose, through their red ink fig
ures, that there are a number OF hol1-
days, legal and otherwise, set forth
tbut for Arizona people the list set ou5
above arc all legal holidays. The
presidential election falling this year,
election day is holiday in almost
every state, yet there are five which
do. not recognize it as such. The eX-
ception being so rare, it will be OF in
terest that The five states are Illinois,
Massachusetts, Mississippi, Ohio and
Vermont. The territories that do not
recognize it are Alaska and Hawaii,
and while the District of Columbia
does not observe it as a holiday, there
is no presidential election for the dis
trict.
This year has the extra day assigned
to leap year which, as always, is added
to February's total of % days and re-
suits in giving it 80 Armistice day is
growing in general recognition al
though at present only little less
than half the states have made it a
legal holiday.
It will be observed that this year
there are IL legal holidays, just one
short Of an average of one each month.
There are three mon -hs, however, that
have no legal holiday while the month
of November, this year, has three legal
holidays = Election, Armistice and
Thanksgiving day. Ordinarily, Armi-
stice and Thanksgiving give November
the honor of more than one legal holi-
day and the only month that holds
that distinction in this state.
In some of the eastern states some
of the Revolutionary battles, as that
Of Bunker Hill and the evacuation by
the British of New York are observed
locally as legal holidays and an occa-
sional one has fixed even other days
as legal holidays, but the ones having
he added days usually have dropped
some one of the dates set forth in the
Arizona lis1 so that Arizona now enjoys
about as many legal holidays as any
state in the union.

COAL ASH INDEX
VARIATION
SHOWN

The clinkering of the ash in q
furnace does not always vary di'
rectIy with the sulphur content OF
the coal, states j. F. Bargley IN
Technical Paper 4S6, recently issued
by the United States Bureau OF
Mines.
In common practice the sulphur
content, the circular points out.
has been used as an index of clink-
ering tendencies and for many
Goals will serve fairly well for this
purpose.
The fusibility of coal ash depends
upon such factors as the ratio or
the silica to the bases, the nature
of the bases and the percentage OF
aluminium. When the ratio of the
silica to the bases is very high or
very low the ash-fusion tempera-
ture is high.
When sulphus occurs in the coal
as component of iron pyrites it
indexes to a great extent the
amount of the effective base, iron.
When no iron is present there gem
orally exists highly siliceous ash
of high-fusion temperature.
When such iron is present the
SILICA base ratio is apt to be such
that an ash of low-fusion tempera-
ture occurs. At times in fuel beds
because of lack of oxygen the iron
is oxidized to ferrous oxide, which
forms with silica ferrous silicates
that have a relatively low fusion
temperature.
Some Goals quite low in sulphur
have an ash of low fusion tempera-
ture due to the nature and relative
amounts OF their mineral constitu-
ents. Sulphur in the organic COM
pounds undoubtedly has little or
no effect on the clinker.
A discussion of the sulphur prob
lem in burning coal is given in
Bureau of Mines Technical Paper
436, which may be obtained from
the superintendent of documents,
Government Printing Office.

FOOD POISONING
REPORT MADE

The Health Department is nearing
completion of its Investigations of
the recent illness of 36 nurses and

of the cases was serious.
The report was made to DR.. WILL
liam C.. Fowler. District Health
Officer, by a member of his staff,
DR.. James G.. Cumming.
The Illness of the Garfield staff
was similar to that of several nun
