Stone served in two wars. In 189S, as a boy, he went to Cuba with the 12th New York Volunteer Infantry; in 1917 he got his commission as an infantry captain at the first Platts burg camp. He had no intention whatever of being an actor, but when a friend of his who played in a Toronto stock company fell ill. he subbed for several weeks, and when the friend returned and Stone was free to go back to his own line of work, he was offered oth er roles in other companies. Taking the stage seriously at last, he became a "trouper" and soon had appeared in many important parts in New York City and elsewhere. A Broadway Favorite He achieved prominence on Broad way in "The Misleading Lady." "In side the Lines," "Bunny," "The Small Town Girl," "Kinp, Queen, Jack" and "Where Poppies Bloom." Then he turned to the cinema and found in it an even more satisfactory medium of expression. He appeared in the Marshall Neilan picture, "The EUover's End," and became greatly in demand immediately. In quick suc cession he played in "Pilgrims of the Night," "Nomads of the North," "The Golden Snare." "The Child Thou Gavest Me," "Beau Revel," "Held by the Enemy," "Noblesse Oblige," "Milestones," "A Fool There Was" and many other productions. i Then came the association with Rex Ingram which began when he appeared in the role of Rudolf Ras sendyll in Metro's "The Prisoner of Zenda." Villain in "Trifling Women" He next played the villain in "Tri fling Women," also a Rex Ingram production. Here he was the hard hearted Marquis Perroni. whose re venge took a terrible form. And now In "Scaramouche," Mr. Stone is once again the romantic ac tor and once again he plays a Mar quis. This nobleman, although a' villain, is an heroic one, and quite wins the sympathy of the audience when he stalks through the fire strewn streets of Paris while the wild mobs search for royal victims.

For earache, toothache, pains, scalds, sore throat, try Dr. Thomas' Eclectic Oil, a splendid remedy for emergencies. From Saturday's Daily The hoard of education is plan ning some improvements! at the old j high school huilding which for the j past few years has been used merely j as a place for ihe youngsters to use la bad weather for eating their lunches, ami the board will see that it is put into pra lical use. As the first step all of the win-1 (lows have been replaced that for- j merly were broken out and it was i found that the vandals had destroyed something like $70 worth of Rlass by throwing stones or other objects thru . the windows. These are being re-1 laced and the board of education is Offering a reward for the discovery of anyone destroyed property or dam aging it in any way and the person or persons found in the future dam aging any of the school property will be prosecuted to the full limit of the law, say the members of the board, and they mean business. Among the imrovements at the old building planned is the arrangement of the north part of the structure so that it will accommodate the man ual training department now housed in the new high school building and give that much addiiional room in the new school building. In the central part of the building it is desired to create a gym for the use of the pupils of the Central building who now have no place to play in bad weather in recess periods and on the south end of the buliding it is planned to have lunch rooms where the pupils of the school who come from a distance or in bad weather bring their lunches may en joy them here in comfort. One of the problems of the board is the heating of the building and this will be studied out in the sum mer so as to have the building ready in the fall when the school season starts in. The use of this building will give more room in the other buildings and assist in a small measure in meeting one of the growing troubles Of the school for more expansion. REVIVAL OF OLD SPORT During the winter season a num ber of the gentlemen of this ity hare been in the habit of congregating in the office of City Weigh master Geo. K. Staats and when the weigh master has not been busy they have been busily engaged in playing checkers, but the warming weather has lured the players out into the open where the trees are beginning to wear the soft green of the summer and t lie birds once more thrill with their songs and the summer sports are be ginning to replace the indoor amuse ments. The gentlemen have formed a horseshoe club and they have placed their court in the space in front of the city hall and the blacksmith hsop of Billy Hassler and here tliey can battle to their hearts' content at the delightful pastime. So far. "Daddy" Coleman has showed up strong as one of the leading players of the club but the other members are working hard and hope to hang up a real record that will be hard to touch and later be able to take on teams from other places.
