arose, what to do with it ? It was real

The raffle netted $35 and the money

half of thi hospital. Director Crisp

It is the sort of a role for which Miss

of it makes it stand out as one of the
classics of screen characterizations.

There are many instances of the
misuse of the names of persons promi
nent in the ranks of producers, but
one of the most notable concerns Cecil
B. de llille and the reported "mar
riage" of Mr. do Mille to Miss Louise
Glaum, a widely-knovn star, In the
South last winter.
According' to an investigation made
in .Mr. do Mille's behalf, someone at
a weddin? which really occurred In
the south played a cruel "joke" on a
small-town reporter. Following the
ceremony, it was remarked to the bud
ding journalist that the principals
were .Mr. de Mille and Miss Gin urn,
and the report not into print and was
extensively circulated.
The fact that Mr. de Mille had been
married for eighteen years and boasts
of three children, that he was living

in Hollvwood at the timo of tlw ru.
j ported "marriage," also that he neve.
;evfii met Miss Glaum, made the story
I even more ridiculous.
I On another occasion an impostor
I used Mr. de Mille's name, with dire
results for the faker. In this Instance
la man was touring Illinois with
: worthless stock In a spurious mo-
' tlon-picture company. Reports of
the man's activities were sent to Mr.
(de Mille Hnd be was largely respon
sible for the unmasking of the criml-
fnal and the bitter's subse'picnt com
mitment to a penitentiary
tionul murder trial.
Opposed to Scnsationalitmi.
Mr. luce's high ideals and lofty
standards in the production of films
have long beer, known to patrons of
the best class of motion, picture the
atres throughout tho nation. In
speaking of fMms based on sensational
trials he said recently:
"I am firmly opposed to the use of
the motion picture screen for the por
trayal for commercial gain of a noto
riously misspent life. Production and
exhibition of pictures of this charac
ter must be an intUciioe for bad and
tend to detract from the appealing
wholesomeness of the screen drama in
general."
The list of victims of erroneous re
ports, or deliberate impositions. Is by
no means confined to men. Recently
liebe Daniels was swindled out of
abtnit $T.' by some young woman who
; posed ;is the popular star andj-an up
ja taxieab bill in Los Angeles.
I Wanda Hawley received a note
from a voting man in New- Haven,
id nn.. in which be asked why she had
not came back to New Haven, as she
was supposed to have promised. The
context indicated that a girl traveling
with a fashion show had given her
name as H'amta Hawley and made
some engagement with the man. Kvi
ieiKly the pseudo "Wanda'- was a
"''-it charmer, as. the letter was
c 'bed in terms of passionate en
dearment. Not long ago prise l!a ean learn-
ed that a girl dressed in the height of
rasnion Impersonated her in a -Middle
West city. The impostor rented
a suite in the best hotel in town, liv
ed in limy for a week and even
talked the management into advanc
ing her fi'ciii. Someone about the hos
telry then "woke up" to the extent of
making an impiiry by wire to'los An
geles, anil bo was informed the real
I'riscilla Dean had never been near
the hotel In ipiestion and was at that
time hard at work on a picture here.
The faker bad departed, however,
and has never been heard of since.
Kxcents from sel-nlon delivered tit
tho Christian church, Sunday morning
by W. A. Grossman, on the subject.
"Putting Christ First." Text: "That
In all things He miubt have the pre
eminence." (Col. 1:15).
First lit individual life. Too often
everything else Is put first and Christ
is left out. Parents should aid their
children in choosing their life work
by conferring with them on each oc
cupation profession, pointing out the
difficulties as well as t lie attractive
qualities of each calling. By all
means, the claims of Christ and Chris
tian service should be included, for
without Illm the supreme strength
and joy of lite are lacking.
First in social and Industrial life.
The man who Is less honest in I he
character of work he Is doing when his
employer is absent than when he is
present Is a man who is in great need
of putting Christ first. "With what
measure ye mete it shall be measured
unto you, rhen give to the world
the best that you have, and the best
shall come back to you." Thus Christ
and the poet express tbe "law of
equal reaction" as It applies to hu
man life.
First in national and international
life. For two score years the leaders
of Germany ridiculed and rejected
Christ. Nietzsche, for example,
taught that self-sacrifice as urged b.v
Jesus would produce a race of weak
lings and degenerates. So. instead of
accepting Christ, the ruling class ex
alted the Darwinian theory of snrvl
val of the fittest, which found Its cli
max In the "super-man." This
super-man was the German of Ger
many, whose watchword became:
"Detitschland uber Alles." The rest
of the story we all know,
Itusslu today confronts the world
with the most appalling famine of
the present age. affecting 30,1100,000
people. The overwhelming conclusi
on of journalists and travelers Is that
the ltusslan soviet, government Is
mainly responsible for the present
famine. At any rate, the fact remulns
that the soviet government represents
socialism of the radical sort, which has
no use for Christ and Ills teachings.
The disarmament conference which
is to convene in Washington, !. C,
on November 11, should be welcomed
ius a blessing for the whole world, If
disarmament comes, unci as a result,
millions of munition workers are
thrown out of that employment, v
us thank God for the fact that then
will be presented an opportunity to
work for human welfare Instead of
human destruction. So long as milli
ons work to feed cannons, other milli
ons must die by cannons. The nati
ons of the world need to practice more
confidence and co-operation. Peace
Is a result of righteousness. "The
work of righteousness is peace, and
the effect of righteousness, quietness
and confidence forever." (Isa. S2:17).
To the extent thu tho teachings of
Christ are made pre-eminent, to thut
extent will righteousness produce

Tired and Nervousfrom the Lack
of Sleep? Do You Know
the Reason Why?
In New Guinea, several exploycrs
report, the natives set up long bambo
sticks, looped at the end. In places
where there are many smders. Dur.
ing the night the spiders spin their
webs on the bamboo loops, which the
natives use for fishing nets to catch
the smaller species of fish.
Sleep time is the time when
the reconstructive processes in
your body are busiest turning
food into blood, and nerve tissue,
and living cells.
That's the reason why lack of
sleep makes you irritable, ineffi
cient and nervous; and why you
lack "punch" when you don't get
a proper amount of the right
kind of sleep.
It has been the experience
of many that the cup of tea or
coffee, taken at meal-time, robs
them of sleep.
In Gould and Pyle's Cyclo
pedia of Medicine and Surgery
you'll find that "caffein is a rap
idly acting stimulant to the brain
and spinal cord, quickens the
action of the heart, and raises
blood pressure."
This makes it a very good
medicine if prescribed by a doctor
for cases of collapse, when a pa
tient need3 to have his system
abnormally forced into activity.
But caffeine is not good for
people whose systems don't need
to be drugged.
So if you don't get your proper
sleep at night, it may be because
you are being kept awake by
tea or coffee.
Stop tea and coffee for awhile
and drink Postum the delicious
cereal beverage.
Postum is a pure cereal prod
uct, and contains no harmful
element whatsoever. Your first
taste of Postum will surprise and
please you. Many people prefer
the flavor of Postum to that of
coffee. , , ...,
Order Postum from your gro

freshing beverage in place of tea
or coffee for ten days, and see
