Its director, Mrs. Jessie A. Foulk, is a social worker. . She seeks Lo educate young mcn and women in the art of marrying happily and to assist those whose marriages appear to be mistakes, “to make the best of it.” She calls her. school the bureau of Domestic Happiness. According to Mrs. Faulk, 90 per cent of the marriages in Cleveland are unhappy. She makes this statement after 20 years’ experience in dealing with married .people. as -a social worker. “I know-that this true,” she said. “Of course there are some hus- bands, and wives who will not admit it. ‘They lead miserable existences in their homes quarreling and bick- ering continually and ‘at the same time trying to make others believe they are happy- " ) . “But in their hearfs they know they have grown to hate each other —it is merely a case of toleration. They know their love has died and their marriage has become 'a mock- ery. “T am convinced all this unhappi- ness is unnecessary. I'firmly be- lieve that the cause of suffering and discontent and discord in marriage is simply a lack of understanding of what marriage is—or, rather, what it should and can be. Mrs_ Foulk asserted that most un- happy marriages are caused because young people are left to stumble up- ‘| on love blindly. She "gives the folowing- advice: Don’t permit - moonlight and kis- ses to select your husband or wife. Weigh his or her faults: and com- pare the results wit hteigood points Don’t turn your children out into the world without” télling-them the seriousness of marriage. Have an ideal. Don’t choose any one person as your ideal, but select characters are as human and lovable as those in his other masterpiece, “The Old Nest.” Alfred Greene directed this bril- liant comedy.. Chief in the cast are Colleen Moore and Ralphi Graves. They are ably-assisted by Florence Drew, Monti Collins, J. Farrell Mac- Donald, James Marcus and others. “THE GOLDEN FLAME” AT GRAND THEATRE WEDNESDAY Dick Hatton comes to:the front with another freckled kid protege, be among the topnotchers in a very short time.

CRIMP PASSES; ROMANCEALSO Much of Romance of Deep Sea Has Passed; Crimps Put Out of Business (By Robt. A. Donaldson) (By United Press) San Francisco, Nov. 28—San Francisco’s waterfront still main- tains in many outward aspects its old time picturesqueness, but its old timeé*> risks “and - hazards to, the sail- man, are .gone, thanks to Andrew Furuseth,: president of the Interna- tional Seamen’s Union. Furuseth’s “Americanized mer- chant ship” bill of a few years ago put the “crimp’™ out of business. Then Mr. Volstead’s ppohibition enforcement act came along and dealt another blow by knocking out the waterfront saloon. The waterfront saloon was the “crimp’s” ‘hangout. It was there-that he mixed with the sea-faring men just in from a voyage, helping them spend their money “setting up” a few himself and lauding their inten- tion to stay on land for a time, ‘When the seafaring man was suf- ficiently “far gone” from celebrat- ing, a few drops of “knock-out” were put in a drink by a bartender and when the victim next woke up, it was with g terrible headache, in a foul bunk, and with a ship pitching and rolling under him. Instead of spending a few nights on land as he had planned he found himself at sea bound for Singapore or Callao, or Sidney. *When sufficiently recovered, he was fed and called before the cap- tain, who gave him the option - of signing on as a regular, member of the crew, or being put to work as a stowaway. M Broke, without clothing and with the prospect of the voyage, he usu- ally signed.on, and wasg given a new outfit- The captain’s story was that he ‘had come aboard drunk and had failed to get off when the ship sail- ed. This was a favorite method of re: cruiting crews for freighters wher two men were short, or when sailore ‘| would not sign on certain ships be- cause they had a bad name or the of- ficers were not liked. . The practice flourished for years, and made the ‘“crimps” and water front saloons rich. Furuseth’s shipping bill, now"law, automatically penalizes: captain anc company in case a ‘“‘crimped” sailor is found aboard, and his clajms sub- stantiated., .

Their windows are boarded up, and they are out of business, and with them has gone the setting of much seafaring history and the scene of many a good fiction yarn.

More than ter thousand animals— —horses, cattle, sheep and swine, will be on display. The live stock exhibits and judging will hold at- tention during the day, but each evening, the International Horse Show will, as usual, fill the seats around the arena to overfowing. No show in America draws such tremen- dous crowds to its evening perform- ances as the International, and the only regret is that there is not suf- ficient seating capacity to accomo-| date the 20,000 people who apply. A new feature will be introduced ths year. Commercal vehicle clas- ses have been announced and have attracted more than eighty entries from business firms, of their.teams in regular work on city streets. Dairy companies, bakeries, laund- ries, etc., have -entered their best| outfits in the commercial - vehicle and single horse and wagon classes; | the Western News Company, Chicago Daily News, Chicago Tribune, and such big cdrtage firms as the Arthur Dixon Transfer, Willett Transfer, Olson Cartage and Broderick Team- ing Company, will be represented, either in a wagon or heavy draft classes.

The Am- rican’ Railway ,Express Company, which now uses 15,254 horses in the United States, will also be represent- 'd. FRENCH COMPLETE FIRST ‘GIANT ARMORED PLANE Paris;.
