THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 11, 1920 FRENCH COTTON BROKER STUDIES LOCAL INDUSTRY Believes Marketing System Maintaining of Highest Standards Essential Say France Is Recovering Manufacturing Position. D. r.rdh;1nt. a Mitton broker of Lille. I.ince, has been In the valley for the f.it pk making m Klu.ly of cotton trow ins rnn.lltlnns here. The textile f i. lories rf Ui!.. for generations have hrrr, u, rArtHt famn,m in the world for J? i r- :m lioti of fine f.ihrics and U.-es. and tliev u. onlv cotton of the hiKh-t nra.lc.

Speaking of the industry here. Mr. Prabant said that there are two essen tials to the eurroM of it. One is the devising; of a marketing; aystcm and the other is tho maintenance of the highest standard. The latter must be accomplished by the process of selec tion bv which the wonderful Tima cot ton of this valley, which is known throughout the world, has been devel oped within the last few yesirs. But. said Mr. Brabant, this process must be kept up with unceasing vigilance. As to the French market for hisrh-ft-rade cotton, Mr. Brabant said that that would depend upon several fac tors; one U the "coming hack" of French Industries and the other is a rectification of the exchange situation by which France is at present severe ly handicapped. But he believes thai the latter will vhortlv be adjusted ana t. has no doubt of the ability or France to risrhf itself. The I'Tenrh people have proved al ways In the past tUir ability to re cocr from any stroke of fortune, how ever Krievous. anil he i sure that they will do so this time. The new French government. sMd Mr. Brabant, is a particularly strong; one. An important factor for the remedying of the ex -change situation has already devel oped, as was (ihown by a recent kov ernment statement that the country win now be able to sustain itself with the Importation of but little foodsturt. It will be unnecessary to import wheat, which In the past ha ronntitutea about one-third of the food imnorts. Speaking again of inch-grade rot ton. Mr. Brabant believes that other localities will .be soug"ht for its pro duction, though at present there Is but a limited area of the earth's surface for It. At least, an effort will be made to replace th deficiency caused by the practical failure of Sea Island cotton in consequence of the ravages of boll weevil. ' . o - - AMUSEMENTS I American This evening commences another week of rollicking jazz at the Amer ican, seven nights of unrestricted friv olity, each one better than the pre ceeding. And the delights (ene Dab ney and his celebrated Vernon Sis have In stsre for the dancers through out this week are innumerable, the newest of aong hits, and musical sen sations. To miss one single evening of this exWiinitlng Jaz la to forfeit some thing one can never o.uite make up for. so the most alert of Phoenix dancers are nightly partaking of this distinc tivo entertainment.

MAYFIELD, MGR. INSTRUCTION RESIDENCE PHONE 2641 FINEST INSTRUCTION No Charge for Reservation women in b isiness have, according to an executive of a company in New York that employs hundreds of both sexes. He b ames the home woman for the failure of office women to advance faster than they generally do and for the fact that women executives are a rarity. "Most executives are married men, and there are mighty few married men who would dare talk to a woman in his employ for the s.ime length of time he would give O a run explaining details of business. No m itter how trustful a wife is. she cannot believe that it is business, nnu I will say in this connec tion that munv wives have reason to be suK!icious if the employe is good looking. "The result I that a young woman f!oes not get the advantage of the ac quaintanceship and friendly relations with her excutive that a young man dos and therefore her capabilities are never discocred except by accident. When a promotion comes It goes to a man who tie executive knows can fill the job, -nhere there may be many women in t ie same department that are more capable, although the boss doesn't know that, and basn t any way of finding out. especially If he is married.". The slight transgression of the atti tude which this executive gives as the safe one for a married man to pursue Is committee, by the hero of Marshall Neilan's latest production. "Don't Kver Marry." The innocent complica tions which result are but a part of the humor with which the production alKHinds. "I'on't Kver Marry" w-lll be the attraction afthe Columbia theater today and tomorrow. meating the entire unfoldment is very logically developed and is another point in favor of "The Iron Heart." Texas Guinan is on the same pro gram In "Outwitted." Blue Bird Several dsxicing parties have been arranged for this evening at the Blue Bird, the larfcst dancing palace in Ari zona, and the beautiful place again will be crowded u-ith the throngs tviio have caught the pirit of happiness which the Blue Bird typifies. King Brady and hla jazz band will of course be on hand to disiense that brand of music which dancers quickly recognize as the best. Refreshments are a b!g factor with the Blue Bird, tbe service including the finest of materials and excellence In preparation. K. S.

That's what the R?d Bird is going to stage next Monday night. It has proven one of the most popular innovations in San Francisco, where the dance originated, and it Is btlng rapidly Introduced all over the country. K. S. Mayfield. floor manager at the Red Bird, in making preparations for the largest crowd that has yet assem bled at th' dancing palace, which means that it will be jammed to its 5Jtmost. for the Red Bird has become one of the nrost popular dancing places in Phoenix. The apple dance will carry valuable prles, and will prove one of the most enjoyable events ever offered in a dancini; temple. Don't forget the date, next Monday night. In the mantime. Carrol Reed and his Jazz band continue to deliver dance delight to great crowds every evening. Ramona. Neal Hart, :n "When the Desert Smiled." the present attraction at the Ramona, is fulfilling in every respect the advance notices concerning the production which hailed it as the big gest western picture of the year. It is a love story replete with terrific action. many hair-raising stunts, astonishing feats of roping and horsemanship and. above all, the magnetic personality of Neal Hart, who graces the picture in excellent manner. Neal Hart, htving been reared in the life of a cowpuncher, gives to his por trayals a naturalness not reached by any other star appearing in western studies. This fact is. perhaps, respon sible for the popularity he has at tained in a short time, as motion pic ture careers ere measured. Two or three other selected features are being screened at the Ramona, with "When the iKsert Smiled," making of the program a very attractive offer ing. Wednesday starts vaudeville at the Ramona, when that house will of fer a clever bill of comedians, singers, dancers ard a big chorus of beautiful girls. Toft's Country Club. All Phoenix is in accord when people say that the automobile parties staged at Toft's Country club were phenom enal successes, the most popular ever known in Photnix The decorations were a fitting background for the great event of the week, the motor classic at the state fair grounds. Hundreds of tires adorned the walls and the famous Toft collection of racing pictures inter-, ested the revelers. Inserted In the cir cle affordei by the tires were some very clever advertising features. Each night the combination of har mony seems to have increased ks won derful collection of dance specials and the Toft band played with a rare vim and vigor. Ana again tonight the same soft, dreamy strains will carry away the dancing folk of Phoenix. The Owl Cafe Confectionery pa pa g THE BEST OF EVERYTHING ' Near the Adams School g 110 North Seventh Ave. Strand.

"Lady Rose's Daugbter" is the love story of a romantic girl, a victim of circumstances at birth which placed her in a very tad light with th set In which her mother moved, a fact that had followed her throughout her life until she decided to break over the bars of casts and seek happiness in th love of the man she chose. It is a very human document, being the picturiza tlon of Mrn. Humphrey Ward's cele brated novel of the same name, and as Is characteristic of all Elsie Ferguson's pictures th feminine members of the cast display some of the most gorgeous gowns yet neen In the silent drama. "Thrcugh the Keyhole" is the com edy, while the Pathe News finishes out the program. The Hip.

Always considered on of the most accomplished of the Fox stars, her picture! have up to this time been more or has along the lines of the modern society drama, but the present production finds her in the atmosphere of big bust less, appearing as the man ager of on of the most successful steel mills in tht industry. At the deatn of her father she had assumed command of the affairs of the mill and.
