And now his son, Frank Ropke, is fighting for title to this land, It isn’t so much the honor of the discovery that worries him. But since the old days that bit of earth has increased in value until now it’s. worth somewhere between $500,000 and $3,000,000, A Terrible Storm It was 1892 when Capt. Ropke, his wife and five children shook the Loop’s dust from their brogans and started out in Capt. Ropke’s little boat to seek a new place of residence They had barely left the Thirtieth street pier, however, when a terrific storm arose. For twenty-four hours the little ‘THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE ; front. ‘and big buildings are all around. ‘is Ropke’s determination to keep it. {tion that he won't. hont was buffeted and tossed. When the storm subsided all were ex- hausted. Then, regaining strength, (apt. Ropke went ashore to see if he were off Halifax or Nantucket. Now there must be no reflection on his good boat. Probably a light gale would have moved it a little. But the fact remains that twenty-four hours of storm had carried it only to Fiftieth street and the lakefront.

Bebe Daniels is starred, while the leading role is played by Norman Kerry. From a modern angle the film is said to leave no want unfilled in the way of excitement, action, comedy and heart interest. True to its twentieth century title it depicts the love affairs of a popular young mar- ried couple, who have decided to live apart several days of the week in order to keep themselves from tiring of each other. The picture has been made with a lk h hand. Magnificent sets, splendid outdoor scenery and emo- tional action race before the eyes. ELTINGE THEATRE With the bustly background of the West in the making, peopled by faithful replicas of the period, “The Desert Flower,” latest Colleen Moore picture, is the attraction at the Eltinge for Friday and Saturday. Admirers of this spirited sprite, who have been surprised time and again by her many-sided genius, will look upon a Colleen Moore quite dif- ferent from the one they beheld in the flapper classics she has con- tributed to the screen. The building of a railsoad, with Maggie keeping house in a boxcar for her step-father, who is foreman of the construction gang, supplies interesting atmosphere for the early scenes. Lloyd Hughes appears opposite Miss Moore, and in the cast are Ve k Brownlee, Kate Price, William oni Bailey, Monte Collins and Gene Corrado. BRITISH ANXIOUS TO MAKE ANOTHER CLIMB UP EVEREST London, July 23.—(P)—Addressing the Royal Geographical Society's an- niversary meeting, the president, the Earl of Ronaldshay, said neither the members of the late Mount Everest Expedition, nor of the Mount Everest committee were prepared to admit defeat with regard to the conquest of Everest. The prospect of putting the matter to the final test, he said, dependec upon the willingness, or otherwise. of the Tibetan Government to grant permission to another expedition, ra- ther than upon the readiness anc ability of the committee to .organize and despatch it.

It fills a long-felt want; for it isa double-purpose oil: It stops transmission noise effec- tively by building up on the drums a stable lubricating film which will not rub off under the scraping action of the bands. It lubricates the engine thor- oughly and causes it to operate quietly and efficiently. Polarine “‘F” for Fords costs no more than a .single-purpose oil, This feature is indicative and typical of Standard Oil Company (Indiana) ideals of service; i. e., to manufacture products of superior quality and to give to the public a maximum return of service for every penny expended. Drain your crankcase every few hundred miles, thoroughly cleanse the motor with Polarine Flushing Oil, and refill with Polarine “F”’, That’s economy!
