PAGE EIGHT JAPAN IS ONLY NATION FAILING _ TOANSWER U.S. Other Nations Accept Harding’s Invitation to Conference EXPECT JAPAN’S ANSWER) London, July 13.—Three of the prin- cipal allied nations, Great Britain, France and Itaiy, have officially signi- fied their acceptance of President Harding's invitation to hold a confer- ence on limitation of armament while China has indicated her readiness to participate in a conference relative to Far Eastern affairs. Japan is the only one of the allies which has not placed herself on record as being ready to take part in the Washington confer- ence but it is expected in official cir- cles here that her acceptance will be communicated to the United States government soon. In government circles here it ap- peared to be the concensus of opinion that the meeting at Washington will be attended by some of the most prom- ‘iment statesmen of the world. The announcement of Premier Briand of France that he would consider going to Washington followed indications that Prime Minister Lloyd George may also go provided conditions in Great Britain are such as to permit his ex- tended absence from the country. . It is probable that some of the leading figures in British official life will be present. . AUTOCLINICTO COMBAT “WHITE | PLAGUE” SPREAD North Dakota Tuberculosis As- sociation Clinic Starts Out On Work The work being done by the travel- ing clinic of the North Dakota Tuber- culosis Association was described by physicians in charge of the clinic, which is in Bismarck for a brief time. There are many communties in the State that are twenty to thirty miles from a doctor and it was with this in mind that the traveling clinic was es- tablished. The services rendered by these doctors and nurses is free. Their work is maintained by the sale of ‘Christmas seals in communities. The traveling clinic sent out by the association is equipped to take care of all minor troubles but is'not equip- ped for surgery. The physicians take care of the cases of tuberculosis in'the state so they have reversed their methods and are teaching the children simple rules of health which will keep them well and so prevent tuberculosis. The traveling clinic starts tomorrow for McLean county. From ‘there it wil probably go west of the river: to counties where requests have been made for visits. Dr. McGrady of Chi- cage, his brother, a medical student in the University and Miss Farley, the | nurse, compose the party. Dr. J. Gragsic of Grand Forks is president of the association and has spent two months fitting up the truck to be used, The tuberculosis association is a distinct organization and cooperates with, but has no connection with the Red Cross.

It’s making movies “‘on location.” I have spent a day with Alice Cal- houn, the Vitagraph star who is under contract to produce eight feature films this year. s , We have motored to “location”—a wooded hollow off one of the-main high- ways. $ The temperature is around 100. Not a breath of air is stirring. At the bottom of the hollow is the set for a smugégler’s cabin. Director Edward Jose is putting Joe Striker, the leading man, and Dick Lee, the smuggler, through rehearsal of a fight. Five times they fight a battle down the stairs from the loft of the cabin. “Camera!” The sixth battle was.to be the reai one as well as the reel one. Crash. The fighting men slipped “BAD BOY” Jackie Coogan is the most talked about youngster in filmland today. We have all heard how Charles Chaplin founa him and realized his screen possibi! ities; and how the .famed comedian wasted no time in signing Jackie to portray the title role of the now fa- mous “The Kid.” That was the first picture young Mr. Coogan appeared in. It is seldom in- deed that a player ascends the ladder to stardom via a single photoplay. But Jackie Coogan is the exception. He not only won his spurs as a silent drama celebrity, but has won a warm spot in the heart of every picture fan in the world. And speaking of winnig hearts— it would be hard to describe the feel- ing of friendship that exists between. Jackie Coogan and Charles Chaplin.

Not a bit of it. Suffice it to say that Charles Chaplin and this little wonder boy of the silver sheet are pals—nave been pals from the very start—will always be pals, The producers of “Peck’s Bad Boy,” in which Jackie, of course, assumes the “bad boy” character, felt that at some time or another, everybody likes to think back on childhood days and remember the happy times spent in play—times when worries and worldly burdens were something unknown. “Peck’s Bad Boy” will refresh mem- ories on this score.
