— . “WHERE IS MY WANDERING BOY TONIGHT?” REX SUNDAY, During the filming of the snow scenes outside the little mother’s cot~ E‘” door in “Where Is My Wander- ing Boy Tonight?” Cullen Landis’s little dog; forgot himself for a mom. .t and instéad of acting his part like a {Well behaved little dog should in a sad ‘scene," he cavorted around in & | }udicmux manner as to cause the en- .. tire ,company of actors to, burst out .~-daughing, .including Cullen Landis, ‘whoswas in one of -is best dramatic moments, Te result, just for the fun ‘of the situation, was shot by the ‘¢camera man and projected on the screen the following day to the as- sémbled company. It was unanimous- 1y voted that the little dog did a bet- ter bit in his little comedy skit for the moments. “Where Is My Wandering Boy To- night” comes to the Rex theatra for jts opening run Sunday, direct from jts over whelming Broadway success at the Criterion theatre in New York. “TANGLED TRAILS” AT THE REX THEATRE TONIGHT ‘What romance!—what tragedy!— and stirring events are attached to the name of the “Royal Mounted”! ‘When an officer receives a ccmmission from his Chief, his one aim in life is to “Get His Man!” and like a bloodhound on-the scent he will fol- low ‘each clue and trail ‘though it leads to the end of the world. In “Tangled Trails,” Neal Hart as Jack Borden’whom the evil-doers had named ‘the tiger” receives in- structions to take in. Phil Lawson, alias Murdock, a crooked mine pro- moter, who had ‘added murder to his other crimes and gets away. He leaves a very tangled trail, which Jack starts out to solve leading to many sensational episodes. “DOWN HOME” AT ELKO THEATRE SUNDAY, MONDAY In these days of continual rush and hurry, a picture with all the charm and beauty of real American country life has a strong appeal. And “Down Home,” the new Irvin V, Willat production coming to the Elko theatre Sunday and Monday, is as refreshing as the wholesome at- mosphere which surrounds it. Leatrice Joy as Nancy, the de- voted daughter, brings to the role all her youth -and charm, together with, a sympathy for the part that is both unusual and gdratifying William Robert Daly, the veteran stage actor, has created a never-to be- forgoten character as the village drunkard who struggles to lift the curse which is upon him. Edward Hearn as the simple, clean-minded youth in love with Nancy, is con- vincing and lovable in the part, and the rest of the all-star cast are ad- mirable in the parts assigned to them. £ P “THE SHEIK” AT THE GRAND THEATRE TONIGHT ONLY A onc day return showing of the special Paramount picture, “The Sheik” featuring Rudolph Valentino and Agnes Ayres,” is Tannounced for this evening by:the Grand theatre management. This famous story in book and pic- tures has thrilled millions and doubt- less will continue to be as popular years hence as it is now. “THE MYSTERIOUS RIDER” AT GRAND THEATRE SUNDAY “The Mysterious Rider,” Benjamin B. Hamptons’ great photoplay of the Zane Grey novel, is thrills and sus- pense and romance from beginning to end. It may be seen at the Grand theatre tomorrow, also Mon- day and Tuesday.’ But in addition to that, you will have to admit that it is replete with the funniest sit- uations, and contains some of the funniest characters that you ever saw. Not even excepting regular comedy’ photoplays. It contains all the clements of wholesome dramatic appeal—appeal for every class of patron from the smalles tchild to the oldest grand- father and all the folk who are in between. Because it is a hundred per cent pure entertamment, whole- some, elevating and artistic and the most human lovable characterizations breathless suspense, mystery intri- gue, humor and novel twists—"The | Mysterious Rider” finds a place in the heart of any and every human being who sees it. epr—— ARE D. B. C. GIRLS JUST “LUCKY"? “You're lucky,”” Edna Merriam was told when she stepped into a fine position at the First National Bank of Edmore. But Miss Mer- riam knows it wasn’t luck—she was trained at Dakota Business College, Fargo, N. D. This school en- s courages its young women students “to take responsibility (as well as dictation.) No wonder that 40 of them have become bank officers. No wonder the Government, Stand- ard Qil Co., etc., arc paying them high salaries. Start right NOW. “‘Follow the SaccefSiul.”” Write F. L. Watkins, Pres., 800 FrontSt., Fargo, N. D. £ PIONEER WANT ADS IMAGES REVERSED ON RETINA Experiments Have Shown That Habit and Experience Counteract Effect of the Inversion. The lenses of the eye produce on the retina an inverted image of ob- Jects looked at, and the question is often asked, “Why do things appear right-side up when their images -are 'wrong-side up?” It occurred to .one. investigator ‘to try the effect of preventing the inver. slon of images on the retina. the eyes ‘all light except that: which passed through the instrument jtself: The instrument was adjusted toithe eves at 3 o'clock one ‘afternoon ‘and was not removed (except at night, when the eyes were bandaged) until noon the mext day. At first, to the person whose eyes were thus treated, everything seemed topsy-turvy and il lusory, and the mind instinctively tried to imagine objects to be in the position in which they ordinarily ap- pear. After a time, however, the feel- ing of the unreality of what was seen passed away, and the person experi- nented on even began to imagine everything that lay outside his fleld of vislon to be arranged in.the same way as what he saw. This goes to show that habit and experience coun- teract the effect of the inversion of images in the eyes—Washington Star, SEES HUMOR IN ETIQUETTE Writer Conslders All Forms in a Meas- ure Ridiculéus, biiy Sanctioned by Custam. Nearly - all -etiquette is ridlculous, only we are more. or less aceustomed to it, and have largely modified its eccentricities, . . . Take kissing, for example. How well every man must- remember how, when a small boy, he feared that his mother might kiss him in_the presence of his schoolfel lows. . . . What amusement, too, thg kissing of foreign men on the railway platforms of the Continent has caused us! But witness the meeting of two grent Morocco chiefs—the stately approach, the last few more, hurried steps, and the graceful embrace as each bends forward and Kjsses the other's ghoulder. I have &een the meéting of great men in Morocco in the hour of sorrow, when they have fallen upon each other's necks and wept. How few soldiers know that the origin of the salute they give to day comes from the Eaat, und -is really no more than the movement of the subject to shield from his eyes the eftulgent glory of his sovereign, only today it applies equally to the efful- gent glory of his second lieutenant as well. Habit is everything, and prejudice scarcely less—Walter B, Hurrls, in “Morocco That Was.” Whaling Always Periloux Whaling, in spite of modera Im- provements, is a perilous profefwion—- a life of hardship after hardshipy coupled with monotony and undhang: ing scenery. Nothing but a sorme swept, iceberg-strewn sed and a port in a barren ice-capped island. Of course, to the Yankee whalers of 8 century ago the improvements o2 to- day would make the work séem lux- uriant and soft. No throwing of the harpoon by hand from a frajl man- propelled craft at the mercy of the injured whale—no cold damp living quarters, but a warm steam-heated forecastle defying the rigors of an Antarctic climate. From April to November the small er boats and crews attached to the factorles winter in Montevideo. Around November they refit for serve ice and report for duty when the shipa come from Norway. Most of the whalers are Norweglan, though the men on the smaller boats being re- cruited in the South American pofts contain ‘sailors from every countyy én earth. As Busy as a Bee, It 1s not considered primarily a gcV. ernment function to test the truth: ot suyings. But scientists of the United States bureau of entomology have pre- pared a test for one ut least. They have devised-a gate with a meter de- vice to be placed at the entrance to & eeblve, A telephone attachment there to records electrically the passage ot every bee as it goes out for honey. What if the machine should shattes a tradition and prove that a bee isn's busy? What if this time clock showe§ he hung around. the house every othes day? We shall' soon know what te think of this bee creature. It is just as well for a phrase-lazg race that no one takes the trouble te prove whether a cat is weak, whether a dog gets especlally tired, whether a fish drinks more than he ought and whether & lark is happy.—St. Joseph News-Press, " “Siamese Twins” of Tres World. What may be called the “Siamess Twins” of the tree world is found oy an Island formed- by’ two branche» of . the Mississippl river at Rock Island, Iil. he island, whichi iy eccupled by an arsenal of the United States ~ government, embraces —sdme 200 acres of luxuriant forest, com prising many varieties of trees, ané almost in the center of it I8 the twiy tree, an onk and an elm, the trunks of which, having grown close togethes many years ago, appear to be mergeq into n single bole to a height of five or six feet. At this height the trunks are en- tirely separated, each bearing its own pecullar bark -formation and follage. The twin has been estimated to be a hundred years old, but is still of vig- orous. growth, SUBSCRIBE FOR THE PIONEER This | was accomplished by means of an: op-{! tical instrument that excluded 'from | National Council of the ‘Boy America): “ MOBEL/RURAL TROOP b Tetter, fiom” H. H. Kurtz, Troop No. . 1, Honeybrook, Jgenusyl- vania, shoys that the gcout,program is equal .to any. situation. in. the hands ‘of a devoteg scoutmasger: “rhis is:strictly a.ryral troop. The borough of Honeybrook, of less than 700 inbabitants gives us only 10 scouts. The remgining 28 come from little hamlets gr distant farms; 18 are farm boys—boys who live, perform work on farms. Nearly all are, in a greater or less degree, active tillers of the soll. ; “The country is admirably adapted to scouting with wide and fertile val- leys, long ranges of wooded hilis, clear stréams. We claim as our.terrl- tory- a section of about 200 square miles. Boys live from five to ten miles from scout headguarters, This fact makes certain arrangements necessary which will be explained. 3 “We set up & high ideal.” We.deter« mined however we might fail in other things, to place the chiet émphasis on the oath and Jaw,. Scoutcraft was distinctly secondary. After four yenrs | we still keep the ideal in _view. No boy may enter the troop unless we are satistuctorily assured that he will’ do his best to do :his. duty to God, his country, and obey the scout law. “Every boy is in a patrol and knows his number. Each' patrol is properly officered,, the officers being chosen on the ground of worth and merit. There are no elections. The two senior patrol leaders, the six patrol leaders and thelr six assistants form an ‘offi- cers’ councll, which administers dis- cipline, outlines the policy of the troop and advises with the scoutmaster. Nothing of importance is decided (ex- cept in emergency) without the coup- cil, “Every scout is uniformed, and every scout” procures his ‘own uniform. A poor boy will réceiva ‘aid from the troop - treasury, which he may make good as he is able. Insignia is pro- vided by the troop. Each scolt is given . his -proper badges, shoulder knots, service stripes, .etc., and it is required that these mutters be in place, and that they be correct’ The troop is goyerned by a point system.. This is_rigidly adhered toj.and “each boy reports .his® ‘points’ on honor, at the business meeting,~ The - system gov- erns 'the good tuen’/and all the‘mat- ters of the oath and law, and attend- ance and inspection. In uniform, or out, 'and at any time and place the scout salutes his superiors, once in the day. Strict and unquestioning obedi- enice Is required as well as regulgr at- tenddnce at all of the business meot- ings. : “The scattered condition of the troop forbids a weekly meeting; so the busi- ness meeting, held once a_month, Is to be attended. No boy may go el where on that evening. b “In addition to this business meet- ing, each patrol holds a monthly meet- ing. Here the Indoor scoutcraft work is done, and boys are examined as to tests, or prepared for the court of honor. “Several features peculiar to this troop, have proved valuable. Each boy, entering the troop, undergoes a partial physical examination. Uis record is kept, and he is examined periodically, and his development noted. The records show a splendid physical standard in the troop. “Every boy who reports, on honor, a perfect score of peints for three con- secutive months receives the ‘100 per cent duty shleld. Four such periods entitle him to the Maltese Cross award. We have a.boy, of unimpeach- able rectitude, who has won the award for perfect score for two unbroken years. “The patrol that gains the greatest number of polnts in a month is en- titled .to the custody of the flags—the Troop Flag and the National Knsign. The patrol ' whose efliclency is ad- judged the highest for the year, re- celves a medal. “Official hikes are conducted at fre- quent intervals. No winter hikes are held. The country boy has his fill of winter experiences in his. long jour- neys to and from school. But when spring comes we hike. The patrol most fully represented in the year's hikes recelves a medal. So also does the individual scout who 1s present at the grepteSt number of hikes.
