SHE'S READY FOR THE RINK ARCADE 1 Warner Dors His Own Swimming. j H. B. Warner, who several years ago won high honors on the speaking ' stage as the star in "Alias Jimmy Val entine," recently achieved another distinction during the production of "The Beggar of Cawnpore," the big Triangle feature in which he is starred and which will be shown at ; the Arcade Wednesday and Thursday. ; It was that of being numbered among the most daring of the Ince players. I iWarner at first was not seriouidy regarded as an athlete, when h6 ar- rived at Inceville. Therefore; when I he was handed a scripl in vvhich the ! part he was to play called for a long swim, some of the men wno make a business of risking their lives in dangerous stunts concljiled that one of their number wouliK be picked for the task of "doublimf'' the star. But Warner decided that no one need "double" hm, and told Producer Ince he would play tb part. On the day thin, the scene was made the air Was raw and the Playa Rel Rey lagoan, yhieh had been selected for the location, was still flooded with the cold waters of one of California's record flopd. A raft was constructed and Lola j May, who plays the chief supporting role, stepped on board. At a word from Charles Swickard, the di rector, Warner, fully clothed, plunged into the water. Pushing the raft ahead of him, he swam for the oppo site shore, a distance of 200 yards. He made the distance in safety and then again proved his nerve had not left I him, when he plunged repeatedly into the water for a number of "close-ups." He was in the water or standing on shore in his wet clothing for more than half a day. Afterward, he de clared that he had enjoyed the ordeal and was ready to undertake any other aquatic stunt that might be written for him. FRUIT AND VEGETABLE (Specials) Sweet. Ximds. b pounds foi.

Four to Six Pounds Difference in Favor of the Northerner. Washington, Oct. 3. Tiie average weight of men south of the Mason and Dixon line is from four to six pounds lighter than the average weight of men north of it, say United States Marine Corps recruiting officers oper ating there, in a report received at Marine Corps headquarters today. These recruiting officers have asked that the minimum weight for recruits in the south be reduced from 124 to 120 pounds, stripped. "The large raw-boned Southerner" is seldom seen, the recruiting officers aver, and, while the men of the south are as sound and fit as the men of any other section, they are usually small boned and light in weight. The of ficers point out in their recommenda tion that some of the best "hikers" and fighters in the Marine Corps are the lean, wiry men from the southland. WHY?
