MDBLEr DOESHT URGE ALIMONY C TI. II. Kidder, must live the simple life in order to comply with the court order made yesterday that he contrib ute f 10 weekly until the payment of his wile's counsel fee of $50. He must also nay an additional $5 a week for Mrs. Kidder. Kidder was cited for failure to com ply with Judge Lyman's order of J10 a eek for support of his wife, from whom he is separated.' F. H. Larsen, who represents the husband admitted that Kidder was delinquent in his pay ments but stated that his client had not become accustomed to the new method -if living and was forced to exist on $5 a week recently in order to meet the .iemands made upon him. Making a concession to practical conditions, Judse Lyman modified the amount of alimony. .- Kidder recently brought suit for di irorce but failed to establish legal resi lience and the case was thrown out of court. Mrs. Kidder then lnstitued Sep' nrate maintenance proceedings. Counsel for Mrs. Madalina Morley yesterday withdrew their motion to have M. J. Morley cited for contempt for failure to pay Mrs. Morley $25 a we ek temporary alimony. The matter was set for an early morning hearing, but counsel for the pretty wife of the Country club owner deemed it advisable to drop the matjpr at this time. No explanation was made for the withdrawal, but it is under stood that Morley would have declared the impossibility of paying alimony in view of the fact that hisi wife's attor neys had succeeded in restraining the M. J. Morley company from transact ing any busineas, which completely tied up bis affairs and made it impossible for him to draw any funds. Owing to the fact that cases will not be set for trial until autumn, it is probable that the divorce case will not bo heard before Judge Stanford until i October. fS ' - - - Cool Breezes For Ari rizonians at the best located hotel on the beaches. Eight on the surf. Every room has a sunny ocean view. Owned by a Phoenix man. It has become apparent to all edu cators, and indeed to observant lay men as well, that the past several years has shown a remarkable 'awak ening interest in education among the general public. As evidence of this, one sees the large attendance at vaca tion schools, night schools, American ization classes and at opportunity schools. The opportunity school plan .which works in co-operation with the local school system and the department of vocational education, is especially at tractive to many persons of adult years, since it offers them the oppor tunity to perfect themselves along the lines of their vocation. The subjects taught may be vocational, non-vocational or related, so that the person who may be a carpenter and wishes to take up cabinet-making can do-so during the hours he can spare from his usual work; if one is a salesmau or a dry cleaner or a housekeeper one may study textils in the opportunity school at the expense of the state and government, and so become more effi cient in those lines of work. Many Regularly Employed , That the regularly employed public above the age of 16 is anxious to im prove in many lines of endeavor, is evidenced by the increasing attendance at the opportunity school in Phoenu. established for the summer months in the Monroe school building. The Spanish classes, numbering 64 regular attendants, divided into three class, meet every night in the week, except Saturday and Sunday, from 8 to 9 o'clock, and Monday, Wednesday airft Friday from 2 to 3 o'clock in the after noon. These classes use the conversa tional method of imparting instruction and are under the able direction of E. J. Killeen. The textile class, some 20 in num ber, is growing with each session, the students finding the course fascinat ing, with its detailed study of trf) warp and woof of the woven fabrics and the steadfastness, or lack of it. of various dyes. The instructor, Mr. Baker, has had a valuable training for this work. Salesmanship Class to Start The second class in the "General Principles of Salesmanship, which will open Tuesday evening, from 8 to 9 o'clock, registers students from the Bayless Grocery, Donofrio's, and the Kress and Woolworth stores. The first class was filled from the large de partment stores Korricks', Goldwat er"s, and the Boston. Mrs. Etta Gil ford Young, the organizer of oppor tunity schools for the state of Arizona, and herself an experienced sales woman, is teaching these classes. More than 50 persons have regis tered In the department presided over by Mrs. Freda Bourn, from the famous Denver opportunity school. This de partment embraces Knglish, arithme tic .spelling, penmanship, sewing and millinery. AH these subjects are be. ing taught daily to persons as they are able to attend, from 8:30 in the morning until 5 p. m. and from 7 p. m. until 8:30, with the exception of millinery. Commercial Course Popular Heretofore it has been impossible to buy wire in the local stores of the right weight and quality for the mak ing of wire frames for hats, but Kor ricks' is ordering a supply of tins article, and also of buckram for the use of the millinery classes. The Ezra Thayer Hardware Co. is ordering the pliers necessary in making the wire frames. These -articles must be pur chased by the student, who furnishes her own material and trimmings. Paper for patterns and instruction are given free of charge. The commercial courses open Mon day, June 23, under the direction of Mrs. Sadie Coleman, lone and favc, ably known for her excellent work with the Phoenix high school. This will prove to be probably, next to Spanish, the most popular course offered in the curriculum of the opportunity school, I as over 30 persons already have filled out questionnaires asking for type writing alone and a number of others have asked for shorthand and book keeping. Many Other Subjects In addition to these subjects, steno typy, commercial arithmetic am commercial English will be taught. Through the kindly co-operation of the Phoenix high school board and Prof. Jantzen, the room and equipment of the commercial department of the high school has been secured for this course. The commercial building faces on Fifth street near Van Buren. Anyone interested in the work of the opportunity school may learn more of the subject by phoning Mrs. Young. 3571, at the office of the Monroe street school from 9 to 10:30 a. m., or from 3:30 to 5 p. m.; or to Prof. Colodny, director of vocational education, 4201, at the capitol building. o Ocean View Hotel Ocean Park Venice, Cal.

"They fear for their safety now thai the Villa forces are taking posession of Chihuahua, particularly if they live at Pearson, Colonia Dublan or Colonia Junrez. "In my opinion, formed from a resi dence of 25 years in that section, and from letters received from, my cousin, Gilbert Duthie, "at Pearson, written within the week, I do not think there Is any ground for apprehension. 1 take no stock in the theory that Villa will go to murdering and robbing Americans because of the Juraze incident. Villa wants American recognition and help too badly to do anything foolish, like that" - Ireland states that his cousin, who has stayed through the entire series pf revolutions, in charge of "the big lum ber mills at Pearson, states in his last communication that the mill is running to full capacity. - Crops he reports in excellent shape, and prospects fine for ! a good year. Ireland plans to return in the fall.

However, wa3 in constructing trailers that would meet all road requirements and would not operate with a strain upon the driving truck. Here in the west especially, the need of better trailer construction was felt long before good trailers were actually introduced. "If you will carefully note the con struction of Utility trailers you will see that a nieaty of construction is em bodied such as is found in only high priced trucks. For instance, note the manner in which the steering is con trolled. The actual pulling bar is lo cated on a parallel line running from tho rear of the ) riving truck to a pivart point directly above the front axle and on the level with the trailer's frame. In this way the pull is transmitted di- lect to the load on the trailer and like wise stabilizes The trailer.

The court explained that in view of the many motions to be argued he could not hear the matter wnicn would be given regular setting. The attorney general contends that the corporation is a domestic invest ment company conducting its business in an unauthorized and unlawful man ner and is violating laws of the state by its failure to file its papers and in struments with the corporation com mission. - The affidavit of Walther Wolf was filed in the superior court yesterday in which he asserts that between the dates of April 16 and June 4 he was president of the company and that at no time since the organization of the company has the company Bold to any person In the state of Arizona or else where ny capital stock of the corpora tion.

He states further that the ap pointment of a receiver would result in the destruction of the defendants and destroy the stock of the company and cause irreparable harm and injury to the company. , An affidavit of the secretary, George D. Mullen, was also filed in which he says that the company has not, since its organization, offered to sell or nego tiate any of the capital stock. In an answer placed on record the defendant company claims that it is under no obligation to file papers with the corporation commission in that it is not a domestic investment company as defined by the laws, that it has not sold or offered to sell or negotiate any shares of its capital stock. The de fendant further alleges that although not compelled by law, at the request of the corporation commission it filed with the commission papers, statements and documents for its inspection and without its demand all records, stock, books and other documents including the correspondence of the company.
