PICTURE COMING
TP PARMELE COST
NEARLY MILLION
Prank Lloyd's Production of
Sea Hawk" a Mammoth
Spectacle.
'The
Continuing its .policy of present
ing to the local picturegoers the big
ge of cinematic productions, the
Parmele theatre will present Frank
Lloyd's First National picture, "The
Sea Hawk," adapted from the best
seller by Rafael Sabatini, author of
"Saraniouche," and regarded by
critics and producers as the greatest
sea story ever brought to the silver
sheet.
Dealing with a spectacular ro
mance and the piracy of the late
Sixteenth Century English, Spanish
ami Moors. "The Sea Hawk" is re
puted to possess an extraordinary
amount of thrilling incidents, red
blooded action and tender romance
amid many quaint and massive set
tings and in the hands of the pro
ducers of "Ashes of Vengeance,"
"Les Miserables." "Black Oxen," and
"Madame X," the Sabatini narrative
is said to have lost none of its high
ly entertaining drama, but rather to
have been greatly enhanced in its
adaptation to the screen.
The transfer of Mr. Sabatini's or
iginal epic to the screen has made
necessary the expenditure of nearly
a million dollars, the building of a
fleet of four mammoth seacraft of the
Sixteenth Century, $85,000 in ward
robe and the use of over a thousand
men in some of the brilliant naval
combats; yet its previewers state
"The Sea Hawk" is bigger than just
the investment which has made it
possible, indeed, one of the truly
great masterpieces of the films, with
thrilling action and big situations to
make each succeeding reel more fas
cinating than its predecessor.
Milton Sills plays the dual char
acter of Sir Oliver Tressilian and
Sakr-el-Bahr, the hawk of the sea,
and Enid Bennett is seen as his fian
cee, Rosamund Godolphin. Lloyd
Hughes assumes a character part for
the first lime in his meteoric screen
career, playing Lionel, Oliver's
brother, and Wallace Beery essays
the role of Jasper Leigh, a renegade
who kidnaps Oliver from England
and later returns there with him as
his faithful lieutenant. Prank Cur
rier, Marc MacDermott, Wallace Mc
Donald, Mme. Medea Radzina, Kath
leen Key Lionel Blmore, Clair du
Brey, Fred de Silva, Hector V". Sarno,
Bobbie Bolder, Christine Montt. Al
bert Prisco, Kate Price and Louis
Morrison are others prominent in the
big cast.
TR0UBLE IN THE PANTRY
"Chicken flu" the European fowl
plague has invaded many states.
Congress has appropriated $100,000
to fight it. New York and other
larget cities blacklist chickens from
the states where the epidemic-' has
broke out. . I-..
In Chicago, inspectors examine
dead fowl and diagnose their ail
ments as Infectious bronctyltis.
A department of the national gov
ernment issues a statement that hu
man health will not be endangered
by the disease.
It is claimed that turkey and
ducks are immune and that the
plague attacks chickens only.
The experts should know. Cau
tious housewives will make sure
their chickens are "well done" be
fore serving. Heat is the greatest
known destroyer of bacteria which
spreads disease.
Another menace to the nation's
food supply is discovered in New
York, where many cases of typhoid
are traced to oysters. However, New
York puts a ban on oysters from
nearby ocean places where they
might be affected. '
The theory is that typhoid got in
to the ocean in sewerage, thence into
oysters.
Oysters from polluted waters coufd
be very dangerous ff eaten'raw. A
thoroughly cooked oyster certainly ia
safer.
Meantime, the battle continues to
check the spread of the European
corn boter which menaces one of our
leading food crops. It, too, came to
us from Europe.
A column of this newspaper could
bp filled with a list -of insect and
fungus pests that "are attacking
America's .food supply.- " :; ,
la the. terrific ravages of the boll
weevil oh the cotton 'crop we have a
startling example pi wbat-a small
but swiftly multiplying -destroyer
can do in a few years to a crop.
Another case, is the chestnut tree,
now virtually exterminated.
Chickens in some regions are dy
ing like flies, victims of "chicken
tiu."
There may or may not bo any
menace to human health, but there
will be a terrific loss to farmers who
grow chickens for markets.
Trouble, trouble trouble. In ona
form or another, nature is constantly
furnishing it. She wants U3 to have
problems and difficulties. There is
ao "life of ease" for man collective.

LICENSING MOTOR CAR DRIVERS
One of the most effective checks
against unsafe driving of motor cars
i3 the requirement of licenses for
drivers the licenses being subject
to forfeiture. . Yet this measure has
not been applied to any great ex
tent. It was especially urged in the
national conference on street and
highway safety, held in Washington
the middle of la3t December. It was
not proposed that everyone should
undergo examinations, that require
ment being limited to new drivers or
prospective drivers. Those having
had experience would be presumed
to know how to r'rive and to be fa
miliar with the laws and regulations
governing the operation of cars.
They -would brf required to take out
licenses, but without examination. It
onstrate his ability to handle a car,
that he should know the regulations
and that he should be able to read
English. All consistent require
ments. Forfeiture of license for minor of
fences, and as an additional punish
ment where heavier penalties have
been imposed, lias been found salu
tary in practice. The licensing sys
tem should be uniformally adopted.
Small fees make the licensing prog
resses self sustaining. Safe drivers
would welcome the payment of such
fee3 and the trivial inconvenience in
cident to the requirement as a meas
ure of protection against careless or
incompetent drivers. I
Five thousand cross-word puzzles.
in Spanish, go to South America in
one shipment from New York. The
craze has caught the fancy of Bra
zilians and others down there below
the equator. England and other
countries also are trailing our en
thusiasm for the brain exercise. That
is what they are brain trainers.
Which is more than can be said of
many other games that simply the
last resort of idle minds.
Eighteen years ago a Denver man
rented the smallest office in a factory
building in New York City. Recent
ly he bought the building for about
$2,600,000. .This man, Henry L. Do
herty, is at the head of 200 corpora-
vau reconnrncJsd that the new- ap- tions. Ouo cauuot attribute such
plicant should be at least 16 years of success mainly to opportunity! , The
age, that he should be able to dem-! majority, though, create it.
MORE than three hundred years ago, Mi
guel de Cervantes said: "An honest man's
word is as good as his .bond." Advertisers
must be honest men, if they would remain
-advertisers. Their announcements are' sign
ed. They must tell the truth in their adver
tising. For their own protection, as well as
yours.
What would it profit a man to adver
tise "Pure, virgin-wool suits," only to have
you discover they were shoddy? You would
soon separate the sheep from the cotton.
And you would never deal with that man
again. And, further, you would tell all your
acquaintances what a skinflint he was.
As a matter of business, if not of per
sonal principle, an advertiser must tell the
truth m his signed announcements. That's
what makes the advertising columns of this
paper such reliable guides to honest mer
chandise. .The printed announcements are
bonds between you and the advertiser.
Read the advertisements. Read them
regularly. To be informed on the newest
and best m everything. To save hmira nf
shopping. To make the family purse do a
UJ66" cttci juu. u get gooas of known
quality at the most attractive price.
You would not plan a motor trip with
out first consulting road-maps and guide
books. Is it logical to plan a shopping trip
without first consulting the advertisements?
Read the advertisements. Then go to the
stores with your mind more than half made
A signed advertisement is, in effect,
sealed bond between you and
the advertiser.
