all the cltcheS in the book were
raining down upon her. L. Bush
Fekete, who was fashioner of ro-
mantle dalliance of high order
back in his Budapest and Vienna
days, has by no meaps the same sure
touch IN handling an American girl
in o. DIS. That she should have
aroused his enthusiasm, and that of
collaborators Sidney Sheldon and
Mary Helen Fay, is Understandable
That she did not lift his inspira-
ton correspondingly high. is going
to be bad for Star in the Window
The WAC, We are forced to report,
Is still available for other play
wrights who have been toying with
the idea of calling upon her to be
the heroine of their comedies.
One might even surmise that au-
diences are enthusiastically await
ing her appearance. The one at last
nights opening performance re-
sponded happily to the slightest
intimation that the play was going
to turn merry, only to have its
laughter die on its lips as the
comedy fell apart time after time
in it's effort to be antic and spir-
tied. The cliche that its cliches
inspires is that one which Tallulah
Bankhead once whispered into the
ear of Alexander Woollcott, There
is less here than meets the eye"
The premise of Star in the VIM
dow" is that WAC lieutenant, dis
charged after overseas duty, would be
funnier than funny in her effort to
pick up the threads of her old civilian
life in small town in Pennsylvania.
AS premises 60 it is sound enough,
but what was swept on top of it
is merely a complete collection of
those characters and gags that have
become all too familiar. There are
the old civilian sweetheart from
grade-school days, the kid brother
with an angle on everything, the
sergeant with whom the girl rem
dezvOuSed in bomb shelter in
Normandy, the AIS with ulcers, etc.
You probably never have seen them
all together before but you can put
that down as piece of good fortune.
The entire action OF Star in the
Window" is limited to the Madison
family home, a two-level affair with
cut-away bedroom looking down
upon the living room where most
things happen. Acrophobiacs will
find an unintended element of sus-
pense in the fear that some one is
going to fall out of the bedroom
c'off" probably is the correct word,
but it looks silly, but nothing of the
sort happened at the opening per-
formance.
What did happen was this: The
girl came home, met her old prewar
f1ance, confessed to him that life in
bomb shelters was upSetting in more
ways than frightening the daylights
out of one. That came as quite a
shock to him, but he forgave her,
and she assured him that it was
just piece Of war hysteria well
buried in the past. Up, however,
that very day pops the corporal
NOW sergeant who was her CO.
tenant in that strange nook in Nor
mandy. There's your triangle, just as
you knew all the time it would be.
Before it is over an ineptly roman
tic colonel steps in, and later a
medical officer to prove that the
girl was extremely popular in Eu-
rope. The liberal view to take, OF
course, is that it is quite all right
for her to clutter her life up that
way. but 1t is impossible to recon-
cile Yourself to letting her do the
same to yours

Big Building

PHOENIX, March 22-Phoenix is
set for record building
boom the moment wartime reStric-
tions cease. Hardly day goes by
that some business concern does not
disclose plans for enlargement or
for a completely new structure. A
recent survey showed that one fam
lily in five means to have new
home as soon as possible.
A five-story addition to large
hotel. a $3.50 900 bank structure and
a 100000 church have been an
since the recent drive
which raised 1868 900 for'a Y.M.C.A.
The bank will be for a Phoenix
branch of the Bank of Douglas,
headed by Frank G. Brophy of this
city. Opening of the branch will
not await completion of the build
ing program, however. It is to be
established within a month and will
be managed by Frank w. Sharp,
present cashier at Douglas.
Five stories will be added to the
front part of the Hotel Adams, and
one story to a nine-story wing at
the rear. This will make the Adams
a 10-story hotel all around, give it
200 additional rooms and bring
total capacity to $50. Cost is esti-
mated at $75O,OOO to $500, 900.

Jobs By Local
Office Past Month

In February the Nogales office of
the United States Employment Ser
vice placed SO workers in employ
Inent, according to y. c. Scott,
manager of the United States EN-
ment Service, Nogales.
February normally shows a re-
duction in the number of place
mentS made over the preceding jan
uary partly because Of being a
shorter month. This year the No
gales office made SO placements in
February as against 80 in January,
showing a loss of 3.
Placements made by all of the
fourteen United States Employment
Service offices in the state for the
month of February totaled 5.8S4, a
loss of 1,784 over the number Of
placements made in the previous
month of January Placements in
February were 1871 more than a
year ago and only 80 less than the
monthly average for 1914 which was

kaleidoscope. And The a special
list looking at the ear drum with
the otoscope. And the nose and
throat specialist looking into the
nose and at the vocal cords.
1t all seems so sensible and SIM
pie that what we don't realize is
that these are relatively recent de-
velopments in medicine, products
of the nineteenth century. The
physicist-physician, Helmholz, in
1851, constructed a little mirror
with a hole in the center which re-
Elected light into the eye by which,
as he wrote, Il had the great Joy
OF being the first to see before me a

Otoscope Perfected
About the same time Politzer, Of
Vienna, following the work of
Hoffman,, of Westphalia, so per-
fected the otoscope that he could
present the medical profession
with a series of colored pictures Of
the ear drum under all conceivable
conditions. In 1852, Manual Garcia,
a Spanish singing teacher, be-
came obsessed with the idea that
he wanted to see the vocal cords
directly in all stages of phonatlon.
He had a vision as he was out
walking, of a head mirror and a
little mirror on the end of a stick
which he could put in the throat,
and this gave him the inspiration
for the laryngoscope which he gen
erously presented to the medical
profession.
All the modern endoscopes by
which doctors can see into the
bronchial tubes, bladder, rectum,
peritoneum and stomach had to
wait on the invention of the IN
candescent light by Mr.. Edison.
They didn't wait long. Edlson,s
invention was completed in 1879
and by 1888 Newman, of Glasgow,

scope, which looks directly into the
abdominal cavity, has been con-
~siderably neglected. Surgeons in
general prefer to do what they call
al exploratory laparotomy, which
is a real surgical opening into the
abdomen, to see what is going on,
when the diagnosis is in doubt.
But | am told by those surgeons
who use the peritoneoscope that it
gives them just as much informal
ton with one-tenth of the trouble
to the patient.
1t is not necessary to use a gen.
eral anaesthetic. A local anaes-
thetic on the skin of the abdomen
and the underlying muscles and
peritoneum when you get to them
is sufficient. Then a tiny incision,
half an inch long, is made and the
electric lighted tube is inserted so
that the stomach, gallbladder, in
tcstines and other structures "a
all be made out clearly. Its record
Of mistakes is quite low, compar-
ing favorably to the more preten-
tious exploratory %laparotomy.

the gastroscope, which is a flexible
tube provided with a series Of mir
rors. 1t is very thin and can be
slipped into the stomach with al
most no discomfort at all. | wrote
