Everyone likes to see on the screen things that are familiar to him, his own home town, and his own face, for that matter. But he also likes to see pic tures on the screen that teach him a lesson, pictures that bring to him scenes about which he has read. Such a picture is that shown today under the title, "The Red Cross on the Piave." Not many months ago, a whole world read with breathless interest of the fighting along the Piave river, fearing that Italy, once the conqueror of all na tions, had met its doom at the hands of overwhelming Austrian hordes. Ev eryone remembers how the narrow tor rent of the Piave flowing down from the Alps to the plains of Lombardy separated the Austrian hosts from their prey. And then, the tide changed and swept back across the river northward. The wonderful part played by the Red Cross, the greatest philanthropic or ganization of the world, in that change of tide, is shown in the film feature, "The Red Cross on the Piave," at the Columbia today. Edith Roberts, one of moviedom's favored few, needs no introduction to the Phoenix public. At the Columbia today, she appears in "Set Free," a play which calls forth her powers as an emotional actress-. Appropriate to the day are the pic tures of the old Arizona Deaconess hospital and its very Inadequate pro portions, contrasted with the views of the beautiful new building, work on which has alrerdv been commenced. The fireproof structure of the new hospital and its very modern, complete ness of detail are shown in these edu cational pictures.

Third Ave. LATEST ROAD NEWS Following is the latest road bulletin issued by the road sign committee of the Chamber of Commerce of Phoenix: PRESCOTT AND NORTHERN ARIZONA Both the Black Canyon and Wick enburg roads are now in fair condition. A few rough stretches in both roads, but are more than passable. The road north from Prescott to the Santa Fe Trail is likely to be snowed under at any time and traveler's to the coast are advised to go the lower route. .The Santa Fe Trail east as well as all of northern Arizona is unsafe at this time on account of heavy snows. , APACHE TRAIL This road is fair as far as Goldfield with the exception of a few cross washes east of Mesa. From Goldfield to the Dam the road is rough. From the Dam to Globe the read is good. The State Highway from Globe east is reported to be fair most of the way, though a few rough places make the running slow. LOS ANGELES AND THE COAST Travel now is divided between the Ehren-berg-Blythe route and the Parker Needles route. .Both roads are in fair condition taken as a whole. Considerable work is being done on the'road from Salome to Parker and when this is completed will make a decided improvement on this road. .The Ehren berg road is shorter, and for one used to desert roads with some sand, is preferable on account of distance saved. TUCSON Most travel east is now via Tucson, Douglas, Lordsburg and El Paso. From Phoenix to Chandler the road is considerably rough, which makes the going slow. From Florence to Tucson the road is good. The road through Douglas and Bisbee is also fine. YUMA There is very little travel over this road, and those who come over it re port some extremely rough stretches that makes travelling slow and hard on machines. Travelers over the Borderland route are advised to go via Parker or Ehrenberg For detailed information regarding roads out from Phoenix inquire at the Chamber of Commerce of Phoenix, corner Second Avenue and Adams.
