Stables and paddocks were buiit at the Christie studio for other scenes but it takes an expert to tell which scenes were made at the studio and which down at the track. “DON'T GET PERSONAL” AT "ELKO THEATRE THURSDAY Universal has started the new year off with a new writer, I. R. King, who has. furnished an amusing though light comedy for the trim Miss Prevost, and Clarence Badger has given:it his best in the way of direction. And there is the added attraction of T .Roy Barnes in . her support, who is in turn supported by George Nichols, Daisy Robinson. Roy Atwell.

This may seem a broad statement but it is more than justified.by Miss Talmadge’s interpretation of the role of Ming Toy. Due c]_'edit must go to Josepn M. Schenck, who plunged on this proposition to the extent of buying one of the biggest stage suc- cesses of recent years at an enorm- ous cost for the one star best suited to portray the leading role. Miss Talmadge is utterly delight- ful in the role of Ming Toy, the quaint and adorable. She lends a charm all her own to the many scenes of the delicious comedy. Most conspicuous in her support is Warner Oland, famous villian of the screen, as Charley Young, the Americanized Chinaman who covets Ming Toy, whose love is given to Billy Benson, played by Edward Burns. Others in the cast are Nigel Barry, Winter Hall, E. A. Warren, Frank Lanning, Nick DeRuiz, Lillian Lawrence and Jim Wang. Sidney Franklin directed the production. ‘TODAY'S EVENTS Rt. Rev. John J.

SUBSC}HBE FOR THE PIONEER 'FROM ANCIENT GREEK COINS Curator of Bosten Museum Believes He | Has Found Origin-of Old Golden Receptacle. Lacey D. Caskey, curator of classical art at the Boston Art museum, believes that he has made a-discovery regarding the origin’of the solid gold Greek liba- tion bowl which has just been put on exhibition at the Art museum. “I found the bowl weighed the equiv- alent of 100 Babylonia shekeles, 100 Persian darics and 100 Corinthian stat- ers,” explained Mr. Caskey. ' “The Greeks took their unit of weight from the Orientyand when I discovered that the bowl weighed the same in oriental money as in Greek money, I was satis- fied that the bowl was made from Greek gold coins of the Seveith cen- tury, B. C. ? “Another very interesting feature of the bowl,” said Mr. Caskey, “is its in- seription. ‘The sons of Cypselus dedi- cated this from Heraclia’ The bowl way found at Olympia and it is thought thag it was a part of the spoils after the conquest of Heraclia. Cypselus figures as one of the worst tyrants of in | Greek history, so the inscription bear- Ing his name is cgnsidered of histor- tea? value..

Nature Has Placed the Price Upon Essential to Those Who Would Reach the Heights. You. probably think that you are a drudge and that every other person has leisure, freedom from cares and great general happiness. ‘If not, you are the exception. Everywhere is a certaln amount of dissatisfaction at the daily task. 1 say blessed be the man who is able to work. Blessed be the daily task! Iknow that there are times when we get tired, Arthur G. Staples writes In the Lewiston Journal. The back aches, the homeward way seems long, the hill to the house seems steep and hard; , but I doubt if you would give it up! You see the shop and the grind and | the desk with its many papers to be ! bandled and the typewriter grinning |'at you sardonically like a devil on i four stilts! ! change it for leisure, travel, culture | and elegance. Do you know where you are going if you manfully stand up against these things and really analyze the thing that -you call culture? Every funda- mental of fine manhood and woman- { hood comes through work. Call it drudgery if you will; it is disciplinary work that makes men, women and na- | tions. You would like to be educated, skilled in art, a sculptor, a great phy- siclan, an eminent lawyer or a judge, a manager of a great business! It looks easy. Is'it? Do you know how many hours of absolute drudgery f goes into making culture as we call it? | Do you know the years that it takes | to make the great surgeon who saves *your life and what drudgery there might be in his life if he dfd not call it joyous and blessed? Where did the lawyer get his right to sit In judgment on the law and the facts? Did it come to him at birth? Did he buy it in a shop? Did he hire i®from some one for so many ducats? Not much. He got it from drudgery. He cannot even get it from books; he must get the books into his mind and soul and judgment. How did the college profes- sor get his right to teach? By patient and uncompromising hard work? Riches! There’s a hard one to crack!” But what do riches do to many men? There is 4 young man, for instance, who inherits great wealth and yet who is cursed by it. There is one of them in prison for murder today, on the Pacific coast, who, if he “had been at work would have kept out ;fi)t mischief and leanings toward ‘crime. % iPower of application, power of con- fcentration, power of thought, accu- racy, perseverance, faith, courage, self- of these come from drudgery.

It means going to work every day, rain or shine, feeling fit or unfit, headache, toothache, backache, anything but lumbago or smallpox.

ARE JUST “PA” AND “MA” NOW Modern Children. Lack Oldtime Digni- fied Titles for Their Parents, Declares a London Writer. a ‘When I was a small boy, forty years ago, children almost without exception addressed their parents as “papa” and “mamma.” When a boy grew older and went to school he frequently took to saying “sir’ to his father, though, be- hind his back, he usually referred to him as “pater’,gr “the governor.” At the same time he gave up saying “mamma,” which he considered child- ish, and took,to ealling his mother “mother,” ¢r spmetimes “mater.” It was about;twenty years ago that the abbreviations “pa” and “ma” began to,be generally;used. They came from America, where,they had already bees In use for many years. T Some children used “daddy” Instead of “papa,” and after a time “papa” went, out altogether, and was replaced by “dad” with those of older growth. Today *“dad” is almost universal. Even the little_shaver of four or five calls his father “dad.” As for “mama,” it is as obsolete as “papa,” and mater- familias Is now known universally as “mum.” The only part of the kingdom in which these abbreviatlons have not found favor is Scotland, where the more formal “father” and. “mother” &re still insisted upon.—London An- swers. ALFALFA TEA NOT IN FAVOR Evidence Does Not Show Any Great Advantage to Be Gained by Use of Liquor. Alfalfa tea, made by pouring boil- ing water on hay and allowing it to | steep for a few hours, or by stirring alfalfa meal into cool water and. straining the) mixture after several hours, has been highly recommended from time to time for feeding young' animals, but the evidence reviewed by the United States Department of Agri- culture does not show any great ad-' vantage to be gained through the use of this liquor. Some experinfent sta- tions have found that pigs made bettet | gains when cornmeal and middlings ' were mixed with alfalfa tea rather than water, but the additional gains were hardly enough to pay for the in- creased expense. Calves fed alfalfa tea made poor gains und suffered much from scours. On the whole, the practice of making this tea for live stock should be discouraged, says the department. Sheep Convert Waste. No animal approaches the sheep in converting weeds and waste into wool | and mutton. There is a wealth,,of } food and raiment in the wasted é"dn i and weeds of barn lots, fields, and | roadsides. 100N HELP EFFICIENCY OF HORSE Numerous Inquiries Received at Mis- souri College of Agricuiture for Hitches. Farmers are making use of power in larger units than ever before. Num- erous inquiries for three-horse hitches for wagons and five to eight-horse hitches for plows are being received by the Missouri College of Agricul- ture, says J. C. Wooley of the agricul- | tural engineering department. The three-horse load will take but little more of the man’s time than the two, but his efficiency has been increased 50 per cent. 5 IF YOU HAD COME HOME AT THE TIME YOU SAID YOU WOULD WE WOULDNT // FREEZE Yo DEATH -YOU ARE ALWAYS BE IN FOR A GooD PANNING !

When a’ great scientist named Sir ‘Willlam Thomson was asked about the size of a molecule, he replied: “If a drop of water were magnified to the size of the earth, the molecules would each occupy spaces greater than those filled by small shot and smaller than those occupied by eéricket balls.”” And yet moleculés are made up of even smaller particles, called atoms. An atom is the smallest division of any- thing known, 2 < A molecule of water,is made up of three atoms. Evaporation: of water consists of) the : movement of these atoms in such a way as to make the liquid water change into a gas.

ONE OF EARLIEST OF ARTS Embroidery With' the Needle Has Been Practiced as Far Back as History Records. Embroidery is the art of ormament- ing cloth and other materlals with the needle. Most of the embrotderies made today are usually coples of the an- clent onés/ v Embroldery is belleved to have been applied to skins. akmost as soom as needle and thong were first employed to join pleces of skins together fnto garments. In Lapland the natives em- broider their reindeer-skin clothing with a needle of rejndeer bone, using reindeer sinew and ppplique of Atrips of hide, : Travelers.say that; In Central Afgica, among _the primitive tribes there, the girls embroider skfns with figures’ of flowers and ‘animals, supplementing the effect with shells and feathers. Among the ancfent Greek textiles exhumed from Crimean graves are both tapestries ay.d embrolderies now preserved in the 'Hermitage at Petro- grad. One of thye embroideries is at- tributed to the Fourth century, B. C., and is in colored wools on wool. Had Some :Apprehenlion. .

There are six canal systems under the control of the Dominion govern- ment, the most Important of which is that between Fort William ‘and Mon- freal. The other systems are between Montreal and the international boun- fary near Lake Champlain; Montreal and Ottawa, Ottawa and Kingston, the St. Peter's canal from the | Atlantlc ocean to the Bras d'Or lakds, Cape Breton and the incompleted caifal from Trenton to Lake Huron. e They are, and “then I Wil tfy to say them as I see them.” His gallant fight for a free pulpit in & free synagogue 18 memorable in the religious life ‘of America.

He says.London has nath- r~his charm as an orator is equal fo _his dgring as a prophet. One moment._he is walking to and fro like a lawyer at the bar; another, he is exploding some injustice or ab- surdity with a quick saber-thrust, with now a glint of humor and now a gleam of prophetic indignation.
