PAGE TWO THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 22 BATHERS AND HOONSHINERS’ ARE DISCUSSED Kentuckians Clad in Bathing) Suits Must Have Police Pro- tection or Keep off Streets TREES FOR BATH HOUSE) “Still” Operators To Have a Whistle That Can Be Heard Two Miles Away \ Frankfort, Ky., Feb. 22—Now that! the Kentucky general assembly _has/ made the streets of White Mills, Hardin county, safe for pedestrains by passing a bill which says who- ever goes on the streets of an unin- | corporated village with no police pro- tection, clad only in a bathing suit) is subject to a fine, its attention has been called to other public matters. Among the recent bills introduced in the senate is one to require moon- shiners to attach whistles that can be heard two"miles to their stills, and to blow them every thirty minutes from 1 a. m. until 11 p. m. Scantily-clad summer boarders are given as the reason for the passage of the ‘anti-bathing suit bill. The prin- ciple industry of White Mills is en- tertaming summer guests. lts main asset is a:small river and swimming is its great outdoor sport. ‘ \A Poor Bath House But the bath house facilities consist of willow trees under whose droop- ing branches one may park the bath- robe, These facilities, however, have failed to appeal .to the visitors, which include a goodly number of, young women. Representative Charles A. Nelson noticed this and he told the legislature that the youth of his vil- lage home is being corrupted by the sight of women clad only in bathing suits strolling down the street to the river. The vote was 66 to 20, not- withstanding the fact that Represen- tative James Park, former big Icague baseball player, called the bill an ef- fort to legislate the morals of the people and said the average bathing suit contains more material than the average evening dress. The bill had been reported favorably by the Alco- holic liquors committee, to which it was referred. Senator Bannie Tabor jf Carter} county is pushing a “still” bill. Sena- tor Tabor, in his bill, consisting of five sections, proposes, that it shall be unlawful for a person to operate a still without a whistle that can be! heard two miles; that it must be blown every half hour from 1 a. m. un- til 11 p. m., and that roadways or well- beaten paths must lead to the still. It creates the office of “moonshine still inspector,” to see that the law is obeyed undet heavy penalty for fail- ure,’ TINY WORM-LIKE ANIMALS T0 GET THE “ONCE OVER” They\Are To Be Found In Hu- man Beings as Well as in The Earth ARE 40 OR 50 VARIETIES New Haven, Conn., Feb. 22—Some very little animals which play a very big part in human existence are to be given the “once-over” scientifically in Yale University laboratories during the next few months, in order to add information about them to the sum of human knowledge. Miss Helen Hein- ly of the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C., has been detailed to assist Dr. Goothold Steiner of Berne University, Research Fellow at Yale, in micrgscropic study .of the Nemotode, described as an animal that annually does millions of dollars worth of damage to plants and veg- etables. These tiny worm-like animals are to be found in human beings as well as in the earth. There are 40 to 50 varieties in humans. Ten per cent are classed as predatory, that is they eat animals ‘while the femaining ainety per cent eat vegetation. ‘Dr. Steiner and Miss’ Heinly are to study means of reproduction of thé ‘predatory type so they will eat the plant eaters and eradicate them. One predatory type will eat 30 types of the vegetable eaters. / The plant nematodes anchor to a Toot of a vegetable and eat the sub- stance there causing it to wither. A great colony makes a “root knot.” The laboratogy “work will ‘be to find the dest co®ditions suitéd to the growth of the predatory nematodes. Dr. Steiner came to Yale from ‘Switzerland to study this nematode. He has raised male ‘and’ female, or brought about what scientists call a mutation. The pnogeny of the new female type retain the characteristics of the parent. N.S. Wales Want No Amendments To The Constitution Sydney, N. S. W.,, Feb. 22.—(By Mail)—Almost universal disapproval has met Premier Hughes’ proposal to convene a gathering to consider amendments to the constitution of the commonwealth, according © to ‘the newspapers, which are practically un- animously against the project. The leader of the federal labor party asked for a convention, but now the party has declared against it, as have the State premiers. The debate in the house of repre- sentatives on the proposal was re- ‘markable only for the interest taken againgt the prowjosah The Prime Minister, himself, finally adandoned this project and the motion was laid on the table by a vote of 51 to 9. Ontario, Canada, has paid $164,000, ‘MRS. TALMADGE TELLS HOW SHE GUARDED GIRLS IN MOVIES; (DEFENDS MOVIE ACTORS AS CLASS, AND SAYS THEY WORK HARD BY HORTENSE SAUNDERS, New York, Feb. 22.—“Suppose your daughters were just starting out now to make ¢areers for themselves, would you want them to go into the movies?” I put this question to Mrs. Talmadge immediately after she ar- rived in New York from scandal-rid- den Hollywood. ‘ And the mother and chum of Nor- ma, Constance and’ Natalie—three names made famous on the screen— replied: “Yes. For my greatest ambition for my daughters has always been for their own happiness. I know Constance and Norma are happier in pictures than they would be idle or in any other type of work, just as Natalie is happiest in her home. I should not wish things to be any different with them.” Mrs. Talmadge is soft voiced, gen- tle and motherly. Like Goldfish, . “Movie people,” she said, “swim about in their big glass bowl with the eyes of the whole world upon them. And when anything happens to one fish, big or little, it becomes common property. “It is most unfair to denounce the whole motion picure world when only a small group is involved. Hol- lywood iis a good-sized city, made up of many types of people. To attrib- ute to all of them the same habits and failings is as foolish as to as- sume that all bankers are thieves be- cauSe one teller absconds with the funds. “Nothing is going to prevent girls from wanting to become. screen stars as long as the profession offers such glittering hopes and chances for for- tune as it does now. Girls’ Acid Test. “Hollywood is the aci@ test of a girl's character. It can be a Babylon or a Sahara, a land of opportunity or a place of despair—it all depends on the girl. Employment of itinerant teachers who visit lumber camps, mines and isolated sections of California is one method adopted ‘by that state of end- ing illiteracy. The state of Washing- ton will, in the future, require that illiterates learn to read and write be- fore they can secure actual residence. Other states are adopting strong meth- ods to combat illiteracy. Believing that people in North Da- kota who have enlisted in the forces seeking to end illiteracy in the state should know of the great, interest be- ing obtained elsewhere, Mrs. Alfred Zuger, of this city, obtained a report of a recent conference held in San Francisco at which there were rep- resentatives of 11 states. _ Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart, of Frank- ford, Ky., who told the story of her moonlight classes in Kentucky to thousands of people in North Dakota aroused the assembled educators and other citizens. She said: “Why should the United States have 5,000,000 men and women who can neither read or write? The major- ity of our illiterates were raised jp 000 in war serviee gratuities. ‘HE TALMADGES — LEFT, TO RIGHT, NORMA, CONSTANCE AND NATALIE, AND BELOW, THEIR MOTHER, g “The stars have their fine homes, but the little extras’ and beginners have stuffy little rooms and no place to go when the day’s work at the studio is over, unless it be to a mo- tion picture show. And they’re often sick of pictures by night. “The serious girls, with their minds on their work, will probably fall in with the right element and make the night sort of friends. But the pleas- ure loving, frivolous creatures . who helieve: that life owes them a good time, are apt to drift into the wrong sets. Conditions Hard, “Right now, economic conditions are very pathetic. Many girls go out west with just enough money to get there, hoping to obtain work. immedi- ately—they’ve been told they are pret- ty and better than some of the stars and they believe it. America and not in foreign lands, as many have supposed. “Tiliteracy, is becoming odious. Time has come when the man making his mark to indicate his signature should fill the beholder with horror. Wherever illteracy is prevalent, stag- nation is the result. Illiteracy spreads disease, promotes crime, en- slaves and endangers labor, limits commerce, corrupts the ballot, weak- ens the army, incites revolution and rebellion and hampers religion. “Tiliteracy must be wiped out.” A Problem for All. E. Morris Cox, president of the Cal- ifornia Teachers Association, declared that illiteracy is not a problem for the school people alone but is a problem that equally concerns the doctor, the lawyer, the merchant] and the general public as well. ‘Will C.

A A ee WESTERN STATES BAND TOGETHER IN BRFORTS T0 END ILLITERACY “A number of the studios are closed and thosuands are out of work. Some of them don’t know where their next dinner is coming from. And it isn’t surprising that they grasp at any op- portunities that seem to offer a way out. “Tt don’t take any particular credit, for my girls’ succegstul and spotless careers, but I am very thankful, that T have been abe to be with them dur- ing eyery step aNd to smooth out things for them’as ‘they went along, end to provide a .good home and healthy pleasures for them while they were learning the game. How They Started. “Norma and Constance started in New York. Ll rémember Norma and I discussed her career and I suggest- ed pictures.. She liked the idea and together we went to the old. Vitagraph studio where she got her first job at $25 a week, I went with her every day and knew just how she was getting along. Constance just naguraly drifted in after Norma did.. She was funny and| awkward at first. Natalie tried a few parts, but did not care for the work at all. “When they would get all tired out,! I used to make them stay in bed for! a few days. 1 looked after their} health and their diet.
