Chunks of Ice To Get Into Marines Juan Salcido of Tempe has trained down to the size of the U. S. marine corps which he is now going to join. He has been trying to get into the sea aerviee of Uncle Sam ever since the Germans began picking on him and finally drove him to war. Salcido preferred the navy and made application, but was rejected because he was eight pounds overweight. That did not seem to him a good reason for the United States de priving itself of his services, but the word of the examiner went. Salcido did not, however, abandon his designs on sea service. He put himself on an anti-fattening pro cess and took a position with the Pacific Creamery company as night watchman. That is a rather seden tary position, contributing more to the putting on than the taking off of flesh; It was an easy job, but it was not taking him in the di rection of the sea. He traded it for one in the cool ing department of the company and engaged in the business of throw ing 300-pound chunks of ice around and was pleased to note a growing looseness of the waistband of his trousers, Every day on the scales showed improvement and when he had lost ten pounds, he went to the recruting office again. He was ac cepted yesterday for the marines, there being at present no vacancy in the navy. ers, over $11 each in Kansas City, 1,350 being sold.

LIBEL CASE DRAGS Continuance of one day in which to file a brief was allowed the defense by Justice De Souza yesterday in the Dunbar libel case. When the preliminary hearing was held last Friday evening F. C. Struckmeyer did not place any wit nesses on the stand for the defense nor offer -any argument, asking a few days in which to file a brief. Justice De Souza granted the request, giving the county attorney until Saturday to an swer when the court will hand down his decision. It is understood that the brief will treat with the definition of the word "degenerate" which the de fense means "deterioration" as applied to P. R. Milnes, the complaining wit ness. SUES ON MILK CONTRACT Four teen causes for action are cited in the suit brought by C. E. Lee against the Pacific Creamery company which is now on trial before a jury in Judge Ly man's court. The amounts asked for by the plaintiff vary, but the total does not exceed $600 which Lee claims due him from the company defendant, ac cording to an alleged agreement. The plaintiff alleges that the company agreed to call at his ranch and pay him the market price for milk, making no charge for the hauling of the milk. Later, he contends, the company de ducted the amount for hauling. Lee is represented by P. H. Hayes, and the defendant, who denies the contract with the plaintiff, is represented by Town send, Stockton and Drake.

An inn for the more or less perman ent accommodation of families, and minus bar, was an undreamed of thing and other hotel keepers laughed the project to scorn. Despite their deri sion, the scheme was successful, and made a snug fortune for its founder, David Low. London now has hun dreds of family and temperance hotels, and before long the United States will have thousands of them. The edifice in which Low started his hotel is still standing, and is now used for the boxing matches of the famous National Sporting club. The building was erected early in the seventeenth century, and was originally the home of Sir Kenelm Digby. Cromwell's council held sessions in the building, it is said, and it was the scene of many other noteworthy gatherings before it was converted into a hostelry. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO KNOW?

HUDSON ID PIE TO RACE SATURDAY As a special feature of the Luke Memorial Tournament to be presented . at the state fair grounds Saturday at- j ternoon, Cal Messner, .Deal Hudson j dealer, is sending his new "Blilebird" ; Hudson speedster against the "Black ; Demon" Paige, owned by Bob Saufley. i These two machines, which are con- 1 sidered among the fastest, if not the fastest things in the valley, airplanes alone excepted, should put up a good i exhibition. There is considerable I friendly rivalry between Messner and ' Saufley, each openly admitting that i the other's machine will be dust- sprayed before the day is over. Messner's machine is said to be cap- i able or. making aa miles an hour on a i good track, and Saufley says there's no speedometer quick enough to regis ter the speed of his "Black Demon." John Sabra. who recently joined the sales force of the Messner establish ment after service overseas, will drive the Hudson and will attempt to smash the fair ground track record. Saufley lias not yet selected a driver for his machine, but is confidnt that whoever he picks will humble the Bluebird. One or more of the airplanes to .be present for the memorial will take part in the race, possibly under handi cap. i o it I E! Sergeant Alex Sonoqui and Corpora "Smiley" Sonoqui greeted each other in Phoenix yesterday at the home of their father, I, E. Sonoqui, who is hold ing a family reunion for a few days. Corporal Sonoqui arrived from Su perior to join the party which is being held in his honor. He declared that while he was more fortunate than most brothers during the war in that he. was in the same company as the sergeant, he enjoyed seeing him in Phoenix far more than in the trenches on the other side. Both Sonoquis were with the 158th infantry and during their long time in service, only a month elapsed when they wre not together. Both recelveo. their discharge in May and both did their bit for all that was in them, ac cording to report. "Smiley,", who is one of the best- known ball players in the state, will play with Superior this year. He has signed up as pitcher and if the old wing is in the same good condition it was before the war when "Smiley" was a favorite with the local fans, Superior will stand a big chance of being winner. When "Smiley" was 'in New York he had the opportunity of taking in a number of the big league games and it is his ambition to see Phoenix with a ball park with some 50,000 seating capacity and a team to make it a paying proposition. . . MUCH OIL FOUND IN INDIA (From the Seattle Post-Intelligencer) The great oil fields of India are to be developed with American machinery and tools, and by American methods, according to George Slater, who is on the way to Burma, where he will have charge of the drilling operations as chief engineer for the Burma Oil com pany. "India has large oil fields, and many of the wells at present are producing from three thousand to five thousand barrels under methods which do not compare with American," Mr. Slater said the other day. "We are going to use what is known as the California system of rigging, casing and drilling, and will get most of our materials and machinery from the United States. I have just signed a three-year contract as chief engineer, and after finishing my work there, intend to take a trip tnrough Europe. "The natives of India dig for oil, which they strike at from fifty to 150 feet, and for centuries past have been able to obtain oil by this method for their use. The oil of India has a large paraffine base, and will be marketed in England, and also used in the-great industrial plants of the Indian Empire. There are many large refineries in Bur ma and the other Indian oil regions, and they will be the principal sources of China's supply. "I have been in India before, inves tigating the oil fields, and in my opin ion, it is destined to be one of the great fields of the world, as the oil ia there in large quantities and is of an excellent grade, being superior to the California oil and on par with the Texas product." AN EVIL AND ITS CURE (From the Christian Science Monitor) Interest in Kansas City's efforts to rioitself of the billboard nuisance will furu in evciy cuy in iue country where the citizens are awake to the im portance of maintaining urban and suburban districts in a condition of tidiness and beauty. The absurdity of spending great sums of money for good highways and other public improve ments, and then allowing them to be heavily discounted by the presence of glaring and unsightly signs and pic tures, is too well understood and too obvious to call for detailed argument It appears that what is chiefly needed in order to gain relief from the ag gressive billboard in any city in the United States, is definite and rigorous local action. St. , Louis has met with success in this direction, now Kansas City is following in its footsteps, and many other centers might wisely fall into line.
