MARRIAGE SLACKER ABDUCTED BY GIRL Are you a marriage-slacker? ' Do you awake at. night from a heetic nightmare in' Which. you-see youselt Gy Deing led up the aisle by some baby- eyed blonde or sloe-eyer brunette eager to slip Kid Hymen’s noose around your neck? ; 1t you belong:to that specie known as confirmed bachelor, woman-hater matrimonial-shirker, you will have an opportunity Wiednesday = and Thursday to see in “A Fugitive from Matrimony,” H. B, ‘Warner’s latest production, how one misguided Cu- pid-dodger, got hooked and was tam- ed by a girl who wouldn’t be bluffed. . This picture appears at the Elko tomorrow, also on Thursday, with a special musical program each even- ing. Other features are on the Elko program Wednesday and Thursday. e e : REX TODAY AND TOMORROW William Farnum, starring in «“The Rainbow Trail,” is the stellar attraction at the Rex theatre today. This film is replete With tenee and thrilling situations and -proves that Farnum is easily the greatest delin- eator of western types now playing before the camera. The story is a sequel to “Riders of the Purple, Sage,” but those who did not-see that picture will in.no way be at a loss in ‘viewing ‘“‘The Rainbow Trail,” as the-incidents in the later production are all in a sep- arate form. Mr. Farnum is again seen'as Las- siter, the feared rider of the range and the' terror of the Utah border. Indeed, this sterling player portrays two roles in “The Rainbow Trail,” that of Lassiter and of Shefford, who searches the mountaing for the girl he loves. y AT “BRAND OF LOPEZ” —VIVID MELODRAMA “The Brand of Lopez” which i opening today at the Grand theater for an engagement of two days, is a melodrama with a host of rapid action, and exciting moments. Sus- TO MAKE AND HOLD FRIENDS Knack ‘That Can Be Aocquired by Most ¢ People, and ls Well Worth E the Having. ;... Few.. people .are naturally blessed with the happy faculty of making friends, easily...With ‘most people -it 1s more or less an acquired art, 1t you wish to acquire this art, don’t be discouraged at the apparent ease ‘with which some of your friends seem’ to “get on” with everybody., They've only - learned . a - few more of the “tricks of the trade,” =0 to speak, than you have. That’s all. The main point 18 that'théy have learned them. A person who wonld have friends must show himself friendly. Just you try it and see If it doesn't act like a charm. Half the battle is to meet people as if it may be taken for granted that - they are glad to see you. and that you are glad to see them. Nine cases out of ten if you are genuinely glad to see them and show it they will be glad to see you. P _ Don’t always expect the other per- son to make the advances if there is no good reason why you shouldn’t make them, Sometimes the very per- sons who seem . most “unapproacha-. ble” turn out to be quite willing to be friendly if they are approached in the right way. Look for the good in peo- ple, always, und you will be very sure to find it. ; ' i Effect of the Moon on Tides. ‘The wmoon, often aided by the sun, pulls up the tide. It dvaws every ob- Jecr on the earth.to it, but enly the water. which is highly mobile, ' can readily respond. There are two tidal waves on earth, one heneath the moan, and one directly opposite on the other side. The cause of the tides on the op- posite face is interesting. The moon pulls the earth away from the water,; and lets a bulge of it hang partly re- leased from the earth's control. su¢ Hayakawa,, the_ Orfental actor who' has' -tbg_,]efid!ug role, plays the part ‘of a Spapish matador who later, became an’ outlaw. The production was made_for’ Robinson-Cole at: the Haworth Studios, with Joseph .De Grasse the director. ' 7 4 i To begin with the pictire ‘contains a duel, and there follows more swift moving action which shows: the cen- tral character as an outlaw, ledding| a band of brigands, burning a vil- lage out of hatred, and finally tdk- ing what. he: thinks .is. a -revenge worth awaiting ‘for years. Hayak- awa in this picture is supported by Florence Turner, Evelyn' Ward, Sid- ney Payne, Gertrude Norman, ‘Mayme Kelso, Kitty Bradbury and Mary Jane Irving. 3 $ “Save Me, Sadie,” a Christie two- part special comedy completes the program. i ; .. TURNED OUT HAPPIL "In. ““Homer Comes Home,” to be shown at the Elko theatre last times tonight, Charles Ray has ‘another af those ‘roles for which he is famous on the screen.” Thomas H. Ince pro- duced the picture. i The story centers around Homer \Cavender; who having exhausted all the jobs in Mainesville, goes to the city and becomes a clerk. Haying ac- cumulated a few hundred dollars, he returns home on his vacation and creates a big impression with the town folks as a man of wealth and afTalrs. He renews his acquaintance with pretty Rachael Prouty, com- pletely outshining his rival, Arthur Machim, son of the local hotel pro- prietor. ‘On the last ddy of his visit, Homer remembering 'a chance re- mark of his boss’s starts selling stock to build in Mainesville a branch-fac- tory of the concern for whom. he works as, clerk..: ok Thinking Homer must be at least a partner in the firm, the villagers fall. But_young Machim learns -the truth and proceeds to ruin Homer’s little scheme. - However, things turn out happily and Homer wins not only the girl,- but the management of . the Mainesville'factory. Priccilla Bonner is the leading woman in ' ‘“Homer Comes Eome.” ' The picture, which is a Paramount-Artcraft, has a delight- ful musical accompaniment in its pre- sentdtion at the Elko, which adds lg:eatly.ta the enjoyment of viewing * Forming a- Child’s |deas. celess opportunities-belong to a mother to give to the baby, with' his whole life before him, the true foun- dations of character and” chances of' future happiness and greatmess.

It costs $6.000 a ton, says the Portland Oregonian. 2 A The reason for this, and incidentally’ a reason for. high-priced gloves, was revealed the other day by & prominent leather merchant. ! Wiimington is the chief glazed-kid center In the United States. About 20 per cent of the raw skins entering the United States come from: China- and are imported at the rate of about.$1 a pound. « ’ “What, then,” asked the merchant, “would -be more natural to the cun: ning celestials than:to increase the welght of the skins by sprinkling sand on them?”. That is just what haopens and the result is huge piles of sand at receiv- ing plunts here, where the hides are dried and prepared for manufacture. ce Going All_ Around” says the Good Judge ; Ifind men are takiag to the Real Tobacco Chew.

Origin. of Surnames. ' No 'one can say with any certalnty when the practice of taking a surname. became general, The Greeks, Assyri- ans, Egyptians and other ancient ‘peo- ples had no surnames;-the later. Ro- mans had each one real personal name, to which they sometimes.added a clan pame or nomen, -4 family name or cognomen and a nickname ‘or agno- men. The personal or Christian name was the only name recognized by early English_law, surnames being words of description used to identify persons of the same name from each other. The Normans had introduced into England the habit of using surnames, but this was confined to the upper classes. By degrees even (he common people’ be- gan to he distinguished by vames re- ferring to personal characteristics, as Armstrong, - rahk or - profession as Smiil, . father's name as Jackson, etc, IRRen Do You Educate Your Children?
