in Indiana paraded for scenes in "Tom
Brown of Culver,” the Universal
drama which comes to the Liberty
Theatre, Sunday, with Tom Brown,
H. B. Warner and Slim Summerville
in the featured roles.
Clad in respendent uniforms,' the
band, eight companies of infantry, a
' battery of artillery and the famous
Black Horae Troop of cavalry man
oeuvred on the broad campus of Cul
ver, while sound cameras made a rec
ord of a military spectacle which
could not be duplicated except in a
government institution.
The colorful atmosphere of Culver
serves as a background for a story
.which is filled with interesting and
picturesque scenes, as well se a qual

Got a kick out of a description of a
forest fire by an associated press cor
respondent. His description of the
fire was vivid to say the least, but
when he began a description of the
antics of the birds thst were in the
path of the fire it was to laugh. He
stated that as the fire advanced the
hundreds of birds thst were in its path
screeched and wheeled about above
the smoke and flames, unable to com
prehend what thia great red monster
was that was destroying their nests.

The gun department of one of the
largest out of door magazines in
America is conducted by a certain col
onel who is an undisputed authority
on guns and ammunition. He answers
any and all questions concerning fire
arms and ammunition. So I was nat-
uraly very much amused in a recent
issue of this famous magazine at
some “dope” on sighting guns that
thia great authority passed out to a
poor novice that had just purchased a
fine standard make of revolver. The
owner of the revolver wrote in and in
quired of the expert how he could cor
rect the shooting of his revolver. The
gun was shooting several inches to
the left of the target. He received
the astonishing information from the
expert to follow the rule—if you wish
your gun to shoot to the right, move
the rear eight to the right Now that
is certainly some advice from an ex
pert He gave the poor novice in
formation Just opposite from what he
should have done. When the-novice

uncanny instinct which warns it of
danger. That is why it is seldom
