The U. S. Department of
Agriculture Weather Bureau
of Phoenix, gives out the fol
lowing under date of Sep
tember 17: With the excep-
Inside an old red glove in
the adobe hut of a half crazy
old native woman in the In
dian country, lies the secret
of "The Pool of Lost Souls,
a huere oil deposit, wnicn is
j -
being sought by two rival
oil companies. This great
secret will be divulged by
Marie Walcamp in the "Red
Glove," a new serial beginn
ing Tuesday, Sept. 23d, at
the Pastime. It has every
element of romance, mys
tery, daring, adventure,
thrilling scraps, escapes and
rescues and a beautiful love
story.' . .

Ralph Abounader, proprietor

now be strengthened with
the additional improvement

Cafe, it being his effort to
make this already popular
grill one of the most modern
and satisfying cafes in the
entire state. With this end
in view he has just com
pleted the enlargementof his
dining room in which is now
installed fixtures, etc., to
the extent of making it good
to look at. With the new
floor and excellent music late
dinner parties may enjoy
dancing. The large and com
modious kitchen, being the
largest of any restaurant
kitchen in Northern Arizona,
is a model one in every re
spect, at least Mr. Aboun
ader thinks so, and, to prove
it, a sign of ' 'welcome" hangs
just over the kitchen door,
inviting all patrons to in
spect. Realizing that, after
all, good wholesome food is
the main attraction, Mr.
Abounader has just employed

No honest work can degrade us;
only the way In which we perform It
can do that The humblest task, well
and painstakingly accomplished. Is hoa
orable. The highest undertaking, care
