DOVEY STAET HAEMONY BALL ROLLING Froru Saturday's Dally. Last evening a number of the lo cal democrats held a short meeting to start the ball rolling for,.the se lection o candidates who might bring to the cause a united party and the settlement of issues that for many years has kept the democrats of the state divided along almost even lines and while all were believ ers in" the foundation principles of the party they had disagreed on min or questions and it was to overcome this that the proposition of Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock for re-election and Charles W. Bryan of Lincoln for governor, has been launched by the democrats over the state. With these two leaders comes also the en dorsement of W. J. McNichol of Lex ington, a young ex-service man, for lieutenant governor and Kenneth McDonald, of Bridgeport for attorney general, and balancing the ticket with strong, forceful men. The local organization was headed by Attor ney D. O.

SHOW SCENES FROM siArno Mexico But Distance Separating Them is Only 25 Feet at Paramount Studio at Hollywood. Twenty-five feet from Siam to Mexico! Such was the startling geographical jump accomplished by plavers in "Fool's Paradise," Cecjl 13. De Mille's newest Paramount picture which comes to the Parmele Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Fcr on the same stage at Para mount studio one found the inter ior of a Siamese temple with a yawning pit in which reptiles await ed the sacrifice while but a step away there was a colorful cantina of an oil town on the border between Mexico and the United States. The hero is a young ex-soldier who los.es his all in the oil fields. Capti vated by a famous French dancer, he is blinded at one of her performances by an explosive cigar, the gift of a cantina girl. Filled with remorse, the girl nurses and comes to love the man and he is happy believing her the dancer whom she mimics. Sight re stored, he is angered at the trick and flees in search of his first love. Find ins her in Siam, a series of dramatic incidents prove her shallow charac ter and bring him back to the woman who loved him in his misfortune. To interpret this story, written by Beulrh Marie Dix and Sada Cowan, suggested by Leonard Merrick's "The Laurels and the Lady," Mr. De Mille secured such excellent players as Dorothy Dalton, Mildred Harris, Conrad Nagel, Theodore Kosloff, John Davidson and Julia Faye. The production is in every respect magnificent. The Same Everywhere.

Some, they say, are not being tilled at all or are merely raising a small amount of wild hay, which may be cut and har vested but are making no adequate return on the investment. Wet land is said to be rich when drained and usually more valuable per acre than surrounding lands which have na tural drainage. High tile prices and a scarcity of labor have retarded the reclamation of these lands during the past few years but now 'the ex perts state tile prices are low and labor costs are down, so that it is now time when drainage can be done cheaply.
