Motion pictures (have brought
us many varied thrills In . the
course of the last Uocade. But it
is doubtful if there ever was de
veloped a bigger sensation than
the scene In Jane Novak's great
production "The Snowshoe Trail"
in which Jane.:Novak and Roy
Stewart are spilled off the backs
of their horses-lnta a surging
whirlpool cluttered with ice .This
wouldn't : be bad In the summer
but in the winter and during a
blizzard it attains the proportions
of a fouriply dramatic smash.

IN THEIFOG
"It Is more Important to empty
the orphanages of the . country
than th jails.V 1 f ,
.Tills is the belief of Bessie Love
the young screen actress whose
role in "Forget-Me-Nof at the
Qregon, starting today is that of
Ann, an orphan girl, f Having
spent two weeks in an orphanage,
and a well conducted one, in Los
Angeles, before taking up the
work of appearing as an orphan,
Miss Love speaks with the author
ity, of experience u
"I don't mean that children are
treated' unkindly in institutions.
Thero undoubtedly are instances
of harshness, but during the two
weeks when I was an orphan to
all outward appearance. I found
unfailing consideration. I
"But one thing that struck me
was that there was, and could, be,
no lavishing of affection upon, the
children by an individual. And
that, to me, Beems depriving a
child of one of the most impor
tant bulwarks of morality. The
memory of mothers keeps more
people straight than any other
force in life. Mechanical kindness
cannot compensate for it. And on
that account, I believe that the
task of the social worker should
begin with the. orphanage rather
than, with the reformatory and the
jail. The latter two institutions
are filled with the victims of
wrong environments; and much
of the wrong environment has
been institutional. Let's get the
children Into homes where there's
love to spare, and there'll foe leaf
occasion for the regeneration of
adults." - . ' , ,

company opened their. weekly en
gagement at the Bllgh - theater
last evening with one of the best
comedy bills they have played.

the young city slicker1 in finan

rise of the curtain on the first act

4 Success of Duke of York
Including the Duke
LONDON. Jan. 16, (By the A.
P.) Everyody In London from
the cockiest cockney to the most
altltudfnous aristocrat is 100 per
cent ' agog today over the an
nouncement of the Duke of York's
engagement. People talked of it
everywhere, in subways, v in the
street busses, in the homes and
in the most gossipy of all places,
the ubiquitous tea room.

Here ' are some . of the things
regarding ;Prince Albert's engage,
ment to Lady. Elizabeth Bowes
Lyon, daughter of the Earl of
Strathmore, one saw in the papers
today: . ' .
"The Duke of York popped the
question three times before he
succeeded in getting 'yes for an
answer the first i time he pro
posed . at a dance after Princess
Mary's wedding; the second while
golfing last September, and third
ly, last Sunday when he was the
week-end guest at the Hartford
shire home of the earl."
It 'is said, that after turning
down the proffer, Lady Elizabeth
received a letter from the queen,
paying she was. perfectly right not
to marry the duke unless she
loved him. 1 .
Perhaps the young duke was
DID RIGHT UP
WITH SULPHUR
Any breaking out of the skin,
even fiery1, itching eczema, can be
quickly overcome by applying a
little Mentho-Sulphur, says a
noted skin specialist. Because of
its germ ' destroying properties,
this sulphur preparation Instantly
brings ease from skin irritation,
soothes and : heals the eczema
right up and leaves the skin clear
and smooth. : ' "
It seldom fails to relieve the
torment and disfigurement. Suf
ferers from skin trouble should
get a little jar of Rowles Mentho
Sulphur from any good druggist
and use it like a cold cream.

COME people fail to get the most 'out of life, because some mental kink
makes them unable to see beyond the narrow limits of today. Although
the sunbright road of tomorrow stretches out before them, it is obstructed
by little, immediate things that really don't count. - ' j

.maintain a respectable "home; to read, rest, potter about, and enjoy life
generally. But a lot of us are disappointed in our wishes. Why?'

9f it. Living only in today we fail to see tomorrdw. That's a fact! That
