What happens then?
She isn't dissatisfied;
can't be.
Who is?
Nobody. The grocer

LITTLE MARY PIGKFORD
AGAIN VISITS PHOENIX
"Little" Mary Pickford, the most
popular and highest priced artist ap
pearing in the silent drama is assum
ing the stellar role in "Hearts Adrift"
a wonderful drama of tangled lives.
In "Caprice" as well as in "The
Bishop's Carriage" her work has been
qualified by critics as the most bril
liant efforts of her phenomenally suc
cessful film career, but the role which
she essays in "Hearts Adrift" gives
even wider scope for dramatic ex
pression and character delineation. It
is not much too much to say she is
the Maude Adams of the screen, and
she has that sort of personality that
captivates the hearts of her audiences
intangible, but subtly effective. It
has been said of her that she has
never appeared in a failure and con
sidering the many roles which she
has created, this is indeed an enviable
and unusual reputation.
- Another feature of this production
that will prove of more lhan passing
interest to Phoenix, is the fact that
the film was produced in the Los An
geles studios of the Famous Players,
and under the skillful direction of Ed
win S. Porter, who is haled all over
the country as the father of the pho
toplay, having produced the first dra
matic story ever shown in motion pic
tures. This speaks columns for the
success of the production.
The film will be shown for three
nights beginning tonight, and doubt
less her hundreds of admirers in the
city will take advantage of the oppor
tunity to see their favorite in what has
been termed her best portrayal.

COMMISSION ISSUES
ITS ANNUAL REPORT
Record of Doings of Corporation Court
Fills Bulky Volume Large
Number of Cases Listed,
The first annual report of the Ari
zona Corporation Commission, covering
the period February 14, 1912, to De
cember 1, 1913 has just come from the
press and is now ready for distribu
tion. The report fills a volume of over
1050 pages, and contains a detailed re
cord of the .action of the commission
for the 22 months period. It is stated
in the report that proba"bly no other
railway or corporation commission in
the country has as great and varied
an amount of duties to perform.
In addition to the laws defining the
commission's powers, and a large body
of corporation laws, the report con
tains the insurance and investment
company laws of the state, and the
rules of procedure of the commission.
A large number of pages are taken up
with the report of special and general
orders, and over .100 are devoted to the
record of docket cases before the com
mission. A brief history of every railroad op
orating in the state, showing mileage,
principal officers and capital stock and
funded debt is included after the rail
road accident reports, classification of
railroad and electric railway accounts
are also given. In addition a complete
report of the insurance companies do
ing business in the state is found in
the report.
Over 1000 companies have been in
corporated in Arizona since the com-
! mission took over the work of the in
corporating department. The fees re
ceived from this business alone amount
to $120,831.50. Fees received from in
surance companies amounted to $82,-
411.18 for the period named.
A report of cases filed with the In
terstate Commerce commission to
gether with orders issued by that body
is also incorporated with the report
of the Arizona commission.
o
BIRTHS EXCEEDS DEATHS
(Continued from Page One)
the totals being eighty-five deaths to
seventy -seven births.
There is incorporated with the
tables an article by Dr. John W.
Flinn of Prescott, superintendent of
public health for Yavapai county, on
the relation of vital statistics to pre
ventive medicine. In his paper. Dr.
Flinn reviews the Work of the past
five years in the gathering of vital
statistics in Arizona, and says that
the state law providing for this work
has proved a marked success. Under
the system the numbev of births and
deaths not registered is said to !e
very small indeed. Formerly, while
nearly all deaths were reported, a
complete record of births was not
obtained, and the birth rate appeared
to be less than it really was. Regis
trars over the stats are now more
careful to make a full report, with
the result that the birth rate seems
to be increasing more rapidly than
would at first glance appear.
Causes of death to the number of
thirty-seven, are given in the mor
tality table.' Of these the most po
tent cause of death is intestinal dis
eases, tuberculosis being second. In
fluenza and smallpox caused only
one death each.
Relative to the importance of vital
statistics to preventive medicine, Dr.
Flinn says In part:
Vital statistics have been called
"the book-keeping of humanity." Dr.
Cressy L. Wilbur, of the bureau of
the census at Washington, refers to
them as "our greatest public health
need." He says, "They teach us
where untimely deaths occur, and
where, by the application of hygienic
knowledge now in our possession
the occurrence of many such deaths
may be prevented." The whole work
of sanitation is closely linked to
and is absolutely dependent upon re
liable vital statistics; and the very
first duty of a modern, progressive
public health service, whether of the
nation, Btate or city, is to see that
proper provision is made for the ef
fective registration of vital stitlstics,
and ,that laws for this purpose are
fully executed,
