PHOENIX SCOTCH TO
OBSERVE DEW H
M
"Hogmanay," a New Tear's celebra
tion of the Scotch, will be observed In
Phoenix next Froday night at the
home of Dr. and Mrs. Eugene McGuire,
51 Holly street. An" excellent literary
and musical program has been ar
ranged and all Scots are Invited to
spend a social evening with the Cale
donians. Phoenix Scots have been organized
since April 15, 1915, when the Scotch
people of the city met at the W. C.
T. U. and formed a Caledonian society
and a women's auxiliary, the latter
taking the name Daughters of Cale
donia. Since that time the organiza
tion has grown from a few charter
members to a society which Is assum
ing Its responsibilities In the way of
charitable and social work. Although
still in its infancy, it has contributed
to the lied Cross, the Deaconess hos
pital and other funds, and has aided
members In time of sickness and
death.
The auxiliary, the Daughters of
Caledonia, meet every second Friday
in the month at the home of & mem
ber. All women who can trace Scotch
blood as far back as the fourth gen
eration, or whose husbands are Scotch,
are eligible for membership. Appli
cants Ehould communicate with the
president, Mrs. Jennie Flitton, 1509
West McKinley street.
iisneis
After a hearing lasting until 10:80
o'clock last night, the case of Otto
Mehr and Mrs. Virginia G. Ames,
charged with manslaughter, was con
tinued until 7:30 o'clock tonight by
Justice McKee. At that time Mehr
will take the stand. The defense of
Mrs. Ames was put on yesterday aft
ernoon and the night session last night
was devoted to argument by the coun
sel for -Mrs- Ames for a dismissal of
the charge against her. This was taken
under advisement by Justice McKee
and a decision wil lbe given at hte
close of the hearing. A motion to dis
miss the charge against Mehr was de
nied by the Jbstlce.
The charge against Mrs. Ames and
Mehr arises from the death of Mrs.
Clarissa Holland on the night of Dec.
11 from injuries received from a falling
lamp post at the corner of North Cen
tral avenue and Monroe street after
it had been struck by a Cadillac car
driven by Mrs. Ames. Just prior to
the knocking over of the lamp post
a car driven by Mehr had collided with
the car driven by Mrs. Ames.

GIVES ACCOUNT
OF HIS TRIP TO
Eli
SOUTH 1
Dr. R. B. Von KleinSmid Is
Interesting .Speaker At
Kiwanis Luncheo n
Found Nations Backward
An interesting and informative ac
count of transportation methods in
South America with here and there a
spice of humor was the contribution of
Dr. R. B. von KleinSmid, president of
the University of Arizona, at the Ki
wanis club luncheon yesterday. His
talk concerned a trip made to the
southern continent in October, with
observations not only on the commer
cial life of South America, but upon
fneir customs and habits of living and
thinking. The luncheon was well at
tended, and Dr. von Kleinmid's ad
dress was well received. He spoke in
part as follows:
"The thing that Interests perhaps
mote than any other in South America
is the newness of the country despite
its age, and this fact, which Is im
pressed upon the visitor at every turn,
is particularly apparent, I think. to the
American. Through all the years of
my life, like most of us, I have had a
desire to visit the southern continent,
and so it was most natural to avail
myself of the opportunity when it pre
sented Itself and sail southward.
"If the trip is made from New York,
the beat of service and accommoda
tions may be obtained, but if you leave
trom New Orleans there is little chance
for either. A great number of the
boats going to South and Central
America from this port, are owned by
the United Fruit company, the busi
ness of which is to make dividends,
and he who goes by this line really
goes as freight. This company made
a dividend last year of 100 per cent,
and now I know how they did it.
Fine Vacation Trip
"The trip to South America and back
again, taking in the canal zone, parts
of Central America and Havana, is a
very delightful two weeks' vacation
trip, and thousands of Americans make
It yearly. The best time in which to
make the trip is in June. At this time,
which is summer time below the
equator, it i3 almost unbearably hot.
The warmest weather I believe I ever
experienced was in Panama.
"The United States government has
performed a miracle in the canal zone,
as may be gauged from the one state
ment that at Christobal are the only
docks on the west coast of South
America. At no port on the west coast
can one dock. The traveler buys a
ticket to Valparaiso, for instance, and
tho steamer puts you down in the har
bor somewhere, and you get ashore as
best you can. I can advise anyone tak
ing the trip to bargain with the boai-
men before leaving the ship.
"Valparaiso is said to have the finest
harbor on the western coast of the
Americas with the one exception of
San Francisco, and when it is under
stood that even In this barbor there
are no docks one can know the back
wardness .of the continent.
"From Balboa we took a Peruvian
boat, and" entered Immediately Into
South America, at least as far as ap
pearances went. The sailors were
Peruvian, the methods of navigation
were Peruvian, everything, , In short,
was as far away from what we had ex
perienced previously as if we were in
another world. We arrived first as
Guayaquil, Ecuador, situated . in the
heart of the jungle. The only two ex
ports of Ecuador are cacao and Ivory
nuts, which are used In American man
ufacture. Railroad a Joke
"Quito the capital of Ecuador is
reached by rail from Guayaquil. The
railroad between the two cities is one
of the jokes of the universe. It is a
30-inch road with light rails, and the
train mrkes 300 miles in two days,
stopping for meals and to give the
passengers a chance to sleep. There is
plenty of tropical fruit sold along the
route, but after experiencing the Joys
of concentrated stmoach ache we be
came chary of indulging too freely In
this.
"Another city was Riobamba, and in
roing to Quito from this city we went
from sea level to mountain chains.
From Quito it Is possible to see seven
peaks more than 20,000 feet high. This
city, which is almost on the equator,
is perhaps the most interesting town in
South America. Riobamba is an old
Inca city. It is a great Indian market
place, wfcere hundreds of the natives,
dressed in all the colors of the rainbow,
congregate to sell produce. It is, how
ever, of no commercial importance,
which may also be said of all the other
cities of Ecuador. The government is
backward, the exporting of sugar and
Ckcao is held back, the banks are clos
ing and exchange was never so low."

Dr. von KleinSmid then entered into
a description of Peru and Chi le and
their people, ending with some advice
to those intending some day to travel
into tHe southern hemisphere.
The meeting was opened by XV. Royal
Lescher, president of the club, who
started the ball rolling by introducing
the guests of the day. These were Dr.
von KleinSmid: I. D. Payne of the
Tempe normal school; James A.
Schaub, Moundsville, 111.; L. F. Brook
man, New York Life Insurance com
pany, ami Allen D. Thompson, also of
the New York Life Insurance com
pany. President Lescher then announced
that the names of the committee mem
bers for the coming year would be
made public at the next meeting. The
program for the next luncheon, how
ever, will be under the direction of the
new committee, among whom are Stay
ton Dorris and William Wilkinson.
The attention of the members was
called to the road bonds election Fri
day and the Armenian relief campaign.
A report of the committee in charge of
the Kiwanis float in the Pilgrims' day
parade was made by Vernon S. Clark.
James H. Mulrein, chairman of the
day, who introduced himself as "the
finest chairman that ever breathed,"
then took the meeting in hand. The
attendance prize, a calendar and pen
stand given by Earl Drake, was won by
Stayton Dorris. The donor next week
will be Harry Warner.
The contributors to the "White Ele
phant," which mean's those who re
distributed Christmas presents which
they did not want, then were given an
opportunity to choose others from a big
basket. The procedure was hilarious,
everything from children's picture
books to the most gorgeous and im
possible of neckties being in the col
lection. Dr. von KleinSmid's address
followed.
The musical entertainment for the
luncheon was provided by Mrs. Betty
Wells, who sang "Ashes of Dreams,"
"In the Dark" and an encore.

LIFE BY HINGING
Dead apparently since last Satur
day, the body of Harry Lucas, a cook
aged 52 years, was found hanging by
a rope from the rafters In his one
room house at 221 South Twelfth ave
nue yesterdy morning by John Hub
bard, a neighbor- 111 health is as
signed as the cause for the act. An
inquest was held last night by Coro
ner McKee. '
Mr. Hubbard said he noticed the bi
cycle of Mr. Lucas standing by the
house since last Saturday, and he
knocked at the door thinking perhaps
the man was ill. Receiving no re
sponse, he entered the place and found
the body. He at once notified the
sheriffs office.
Lucas was a native of England and
has lived in the valley for several
years, working as a cook. He livea
alone In the house on South Twelfth
street.
ARIZONA IS GIVING
STRONG SUPPORT
TO BELIEF FUND

number of the counties as to the col
lections for the national fund to save
from starvation 3,500,000 child victims
of the world war, the county chairmen

The Indian Presbyterian church of
Lehi took up a collection for the fund
amounting to $3.87.
The Roman Catholic church is re
ported to have made a big collection
trough the direct efforts of the
Knights of Columbus, which is one of
tho eight large organizations compos
ing the European Relief council of
which Herbert Hoover is chairman.
From over the state come reports to
headquarters of voluntary contribu
tions as a result of a personal letter of
appeal sent out by the state committee
at the opening of the campaign last
veek.
Tucson expects to give a benefit con
cert Jan. 3. In the meantime Mrs.

Greatest Dinner Tonight
What is announced as "the greatest
dinner in the world" will be served in
New York tonight. It will consist of
thin soup and black bread and will cost!
each guest $1,000 cash. The dinner will
be attended by millionaires and repre
sentatives of large organizations, tt
will be given under the auspices of the
European Relief council.
The banquet room will be fitted up
l:ke a feeding station and the food
served will be similar to that served at
thousands of such stations in Europe,
according to advices received yesterday
at Arizona headquarters of the council.
Among the speakers scheduled for the
dinner are General John J. Pershipg
and Herbert Hoover. Aside from the
charitable aspect of the dinner the ob
ject will be to give the guests a taste
of the life these millions of children
are experiencing every day. Medical
reports made for the council say that
many of these children have never
tasted milk of any sort in their lives.
This applies also to sugar and articles
of food in which, sugar is used.
In a communication reaching here
yesterday Herbert Hoover says: "We
must not step aside and permit the
bpecter of death, in the form of hunger
arid cold, to haunt these helpless ones,
yet we cannot continue without help.
No one knows better thtn I do the
many home burdens of our own people
but I believe we can care for our own
and still protect these forlorn victims
of war. This is a charge upon the
American heart and America cannot
f4.il in her solicitude for these little
ones. Twenty-three million dollars
must be raised without delay, and re
membering the new heart you put into
the work for the relif of Belgium in
the dark hours of 1916 I come to you
again."
