it . 3 i PAGE TWO THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER N g “DAUGHTER OF THE DO 2 AT REX THEATER FRIDAY That California was ever the land ' of peace and sunshine is exemplified in‘the screen version of a story deal- "“ing with life in that state in the days before the famous gold rush. The screen version is to be shown at the Rex theatey tomorrow. In the early days the British made goveral unsuccessful attempts to ob- tain that country for themselves and in the story of “Daughter of the_Don,” the designs and plans of a British se- cret agent are portrayed. A’ young ‘American lieutenant and beautiful native California girl figure promi- nently in one of these attempts. The British agent was held under the charm of the young girl and this eventually proved his downfall. The portrayal of famous charac- ters in history and the picturing of life in the early days adds to the at- tractiveness of the production. "HUCKLEBER’RY FINN"” AT THE GRAND THEATER TOMORROW The ability of the screen faithfully .. to reproduce the atmosphere of a story was never better illustrated than in the screen version of Mark Pwain’s immortal *Huckleberry Finn” which is the attraction at the Grand theater tomorrow and Friday. To make scenes for this picture Director William D. Taylor transported his large company to the little town of Hannib: Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn, and the master humorist’s other creations lived. There, along the banks of the Mississippi in the old-fashioned houses and byways of the village, and in the mysterious cave in which Huck and Tom discovered their fortune, the players re-enacted the cpisodes that have delighted thousands of readers of Mark Twain. Screen lovers are thus seeing the real thing as nearly as it can be reproduced. FOUR ACTS GOOD VAUDEVILLE AT GRAND THEATER TONIGHT Showing tonight only, four high- class acts of vaudeville and a five- part feature picture, will be the pro- gram at the Grand theater. Burdell -and Burdell in “Mixology” present a little bit of everything including clog and buck dancing, magic, juggling and talk. Miss Burdell will also sing several of the latest Droadway hits, including ‘“‘Cuddle-uddie” and “Anna From Indiana,” and the act closes with a double eccentric dance. Los Espanozos, beautifully costumed, of- fer a dance diversion they describe as a la Espaguole. The male member of the team also plays a pizno solo. Edward W. Ames is the man who talks faster than a woman, (that’s funny enough in itself), and the bill ccloses with the sensational and novel escape act by Mad Miller and com- pany, closely watched by a committece of loeal people.

All these episodes are thrillingly record- ed by the camera. However, the em- phasis in the picture has been laid upon the striking story which is at bettom a study in contrasts—the i | brutal sea captain who believes that right”” and the aesthetic he “might make: peace-lovin oung idler whom rescues after a catastrophe at sea. Noah Beery, a man of great phy: cal prowess, as well as a talented sje- tor, is said to do the hest work of Ais career as, “Wolf.” Tom Forman, 7fa-| bel Julienne Scott and Raymond J kat- ton are also in the cast. The pictaure, which is a Paramount Arteraft, was produced by George Melford, HUMAN MAKEUP TOO COMPLEX . anud In'a book publi And That Is Why People Have to Die, Says High Authority Presumed to Know. “Why do we die?” This question has been asked of the editor of the Journal of the American Medical As- soclation, representing “all the doctors in the land,” as the old saying goes. “We die because we are so com- plex,” says the editor, 8o that Is the reason that the lay- man must accept. The Literary Digest intervenes to say that it long has been believed by biologlsts that deuth Is not due to any natural property of the protoplasm that makes up our bodily cells, Primitive cellular organisms ihat propagate by division may thus live indefinitely. The higher organ- isms, we are told, die becauge (heir structure is & complicated one. There s & very delicate state of bal- ance, and it Is easy to disturb it so that the whole structure fails. This is the price that we pay for the multl- plicity of our functions, Would you rather be a protozoan and live for- ever; or n man, and die?

Largest and most hygienle fresh- within a permanent, roofed structure iIs in Madison Square garden, New York city. Covers an area of more than 300,000 square feet. Contains 1,500,000 gallons of water when filled. IMloor of pool has a graduated slope toward the' center. At the Madison avenue end an inital depth of three feet. The Fourth avenue end, a por- tion reserved for, as one put it, “la- dies and kiddies,”] starts with a depth of about two feet. An existing tunnel transversing the center of the garden had been utilized in the development of the diving and water " polo pool, 15% feet deep. The latest adaption of the ultra violet ray was used in filtering and sterilizing the water. A system of vacuum cleaners was pro- vided for the cleaning of the walls and floor of the pool while still full of water: Some 3,000 private dressing-rooms; 2,000 steel lockers in the general dress- ing-rooms ; 6,000 bathing suits for both sexes provided, 1,000 more for the chil- dren. A special electrical washing and drying machine ' for cleansing them. Open until after midnight in order that partis may enjoy a plunge after the theater.

Tn the great laboratory at Madison, Wis., maintained by the United States forest sexvice for woodworking ex- periments a special study has recently been made of the effects of various climatic conditions upon airplane propellers. In one room, by regulation of warmth and moisture, the climatic conditions of southern Texas or arid Egypt were reproduced. It was found that propellers subjected to these vonditions had a tendency to dry out, flatten and become unbalanced. In anothexr room the climate of the Amazon valley was imitated. = This caused propellers-to warp badly and to change their shgpe so much as to become totally unfit for nse. It whs found that a cont of alum- fnum leaf did best sexvice as a water- proof covering for pwopellers, which, when thus protected, may be exposed to a high humidity for a long time without warping. Teaf aluminum Is so thin that from 10,000 to 1‘_',00(] lay- ers of it ave required to make an inch In thickness, One pourki will cover 1,170 propellers, at a cost of 66 cents. —Philadefphia Ledger.
