Astrological Santa Gives Tips on
Aopping---But Don't Give Spats West
OF Mississippi, Nor Liquor TO Drys

drawing up horoscopes for business
men and unhappy housewives. Last
year she did her Christmas shopping
the heavenly way, and believed that
not single present was exchanged
after Christmas.
Here's her rating of Christmas
satisfaction according to the Zodiac:
Those born from Dec. % to Jan.
81 are the practical type. Capricorn
is their sign-and they have a yen
for leather goods.
The Aquarius boys and girls born
from Jan. % to Feb. 20-like the
unusual. The Aquarius females ham
ker for ankle bracelets, the males
want spats.
Those born under the sign of the
fish (Pisces)-Feb. 81 to Mar. 20
would be greatly pleased with wet
goods-wines and liquor.
The Aries crowd-March 81 to
April 21-go in for smoking. Ash
trays, cigarettes, pipes, tobacco-for
oiiS iiiSii. rOi VIC WoiIiCii, q bOh VI
"personalized' matches, or, a bright
red sweater and cap.
The Taurus people-April % to
May 2l-Would like nothing better
than food-Taurus people never
grow weary of eating.
mini-ers-May % to June %
have literary preoccupations-girls
would be thrilled by writing mate
rial, the men by a printing press
or a pen and pencil set.
Those born under the sign of
Cancer-June % to July 22-are
honey and would like domestic
gifts such as lounging robes, cock
tail sets or household equipment.
The Leo people-July % to Aug.
22-are showoffs. The men go for
startling ties, no matter what they
Say-the women hope for something
really fancy in jewelry or lacey un-
derWear.
Virgo -ites-Aug. % to Sept. %
are essentially practical. The men
really want handkerchiefs, and the
women want a utility kitchen cab
met.
The Libra men want their hand
kerchiefs initiated. They're born
from Sept. % to Oct. 22-and at
heart they are exquisites.
Scorpio men and women-Oct. %
to Nov 22-go in for the exotic. The
men would be delighted with some
chisels and a chunk of granite. The
women want to get a kick out of
exotic perfume, or some spices.
The Sagittarius type-Nov. % to
Dec. 21-Long for a parlor bowling
alley-they are the playful type.

PHOENIX, Dec. II. (UP)-Arizo-
mas State hospital, publicized highly
by the two escapes of Winnie Ruth
Judd and target of much criticism,
is almost certain of getting thor
ough going-over when the 18th state
legislature meets in January.
Sentiment for such reorganiza-
ton is nothing new. Rep. Frank
Shapre, jr., of Douglas introduced a
bill to revamp the institution dur
ing the 14th legislature and while
the measure was passed by both
the senate and the house of repre-
sentatives, it was killed by veto of
Gov. r. T. Jones.
The most recent blast against the
institution was taken by the Arizo-
ma tax research association, fact
finding body organized to investi-
gate state departments and institu-
tions. The association made sew
eral suggestions in methods of man
agement in a lengthy report which
it is submitting to members of the
coming legislature.

Either Americans can drink more
strong liquor and take it better
than they did in the prohibition
era or else they were being badly
poisoned then by the "hootch" put
out by bootleggers who catered to
a drink-thirsty public.
These are some of the conclu-
sions rather forced upon the stu
dent of statistics on the seventh
anniversary of the repeal OF prohi-
bition. The battle, which seemed to
end then, has not really ended.
Polls show a considerable section
of the American public still anxious
for complete prohibition.
In the recent elections the drys
were active in some states. The
vets are on the alert. There are
indications that the battle OF sta
tistics is to be resumed.
Official figures supplied by the
statistical offices of the various
branches of the liquor trade show
that for the entire United States
there has been increased consump-
ton.

sion, when the ratio was 1876. In
the depression years the records
show: 14.0 in 1929 1877 in 1890; 1853
In 1881; ia in 1882, and in 1888 a
drop to 15.9.
Since repeal of prohibition sui
cldes have been less than in the
depression years, but more than in
the early twenties. The figure for
1887 was 14.9.
CirrnosIs of the liver figures are
erratic. In 1914 deaths from this
cause were 13 per 100000 populS-
ton. All during prohibition the
number of deaths dropped, ranging
from IL to 76.
Since repeal the figure began
rising until it reached 8.5 in 1887.
In 1888 it dropped to 8.3. It is
OF note that the deaths from thi,
cause since the country became
wet again have never reached the
1914 figures.
