"Faverolle Poultry Farm, Ba.by Faverolles by the Thorsands." Thinks I to myself, I must live here. Just then an other picture appeared which fin ally displaced the other. It was of a 40-acre fruit farm with diver sified farming, and poultry as a side line. The buildings were all very modest in construction. This was a picture of my real, actual. tangible home.

His ex amination, however, drew forth little on the question of national agreemants. The association's labor committee-, was the outgrowth of the transportation act according to testimony of Mr. Hinkerd and was designed to deal with labor disputes. Record. brought by Mr.: Uinkerd wens read to show that a divided opinion concerning national boards of adjustment had existed in the committee. As a result of a bi-partisan board appointed at the suggestion of former President Wilson in March. 1920. the national boards of adjustment created under fed eral control were continued with the approval of a majority of the labor committee, it was brought out. Minority reports, represent ing the stand of W. W. Atterbury, vice president of the Pennsylvan ia, however, were adopted by the association, which went on record in favor of local boards of adjust ment. " r The majority report of the la bor committee. submitted on March 20. 1920 said the roads did not take advantage of the permis sive features of the law by agree ing to adjustment boards, the e' ficiency of the labor board might be greatly impaired, resulting in decisions possibly adverse to the roads. - The majority, headed by Mr. Atterbury, however, presented three reports pointing' out that agreement to national adjustment boards meant dealing with the representatlvss of organized la bor and declared the non-union Tnan would not have a chance be fore such a board. Such a recog nition of the unions, te report Baid, would lead to a closed shop and concentration of control by the anions. National boards, on? of the reports sai.i, meant nation al agreements and creation of un iform handling of all labor mat ters, contrary to the minority's contention that each road should be allowed to negotiate its own agreements and settle its own differences with its own employes.

Yet it-is really true, for in the old Keystone days Charlie was the white, elephant of the studio; no one wanted to direct him to cause he had such "queer ideals" ft how things should be done and of what comedy consisted. He insisted on .introducing his own brand of comedy, and the directors looked askance at Mm and wondered why he was ever hired. , When "Tilly's Punctured Rom ance" was cast, Ford Sterling was to have had the lead opnpsite Mabel Normand; but Ford took sick and there was no one else to take the part : no one but "that fellow Chaplin." "Oh. well." said the director; "he'll be rotten, but the rest or the cast will be good. Put him in and let's do the best we can." Th picture made Charlie and Charlie made the pirture. After that the directors went around telling each other. "Didn't I say so? Isn't he a ecream? Didn't 1 always say he'd make good?" (M. L. K. in Film Fun.)
