Wood appealed to the in nation for a fund of 000,000 to eradicate leprosy in the ippines, where the largest colony pitiful human beings found yanywhere, are living under the Stars “fd Stripes, The response was in- _ {| stantaneous, over $1,000,000 having » | been contributed; and on May 1, 1929, * | an effort will be made to reach the E objective of the campaign—complet- ing the memorial of this great sol- dier’s work among the lepers of the _ | Philippine Islands. ‘The construction of new buildings, of entire new units, of one completely new leprosarium has already begun it Culion, “hich is the Philippine Island of the Living Dead.” Culion colony is actually a great experiment » for the hundreds of leper camps and colonies in other lands ‘The actual maintenance of the col- ony, the housing, feeding and cloth- ing, is taken care of by the Philip- pine government, which gives 2 per cent of the total governmental in- come, or one-third of its total health Sppropriation. 3,000,000 Lepers in World There are 3,000,000 lepers in the ‘world,- 12,000 of whom are on the Philippine Islands ; and Culion, an island 200 miles south of Manila, has facilities for caring for 6,000 of Very little attention’ was paid to the leprosy problem in the Philip- pines before the United. States as- They were doubly afflicted, for besides suffering from this dread disease, they were also subject to ostracism and distress- ing privations due to extreme poverty. Reports from Dr. H. Windsor Wade, the American leprologist at Culion, indicate incrersing success in the use of the chaulmoogra oil treatment, by which it has been possible to check chestras and “There's that sap that wanted to take me home from the party the other night. Leave the check on the table and I'll speak to him.” each dwelling divided into several rooms, where groups of lepers live. | They farm, have their own gardens, and sell merchandise to cach other. They have organized their own or-{ athletic associations; and they have an open-air theatre, reading rooms, ® hospital, schools for | the children, and stores. They even celebrate various holidays and have fiestas. Children Born Clean It is an astounding fact that chil- dren of leprous parents are born clean, for leprosy is not hereditary. Yet there are at Cuilon today hun- dreds of unfortunate boys and girls, as yet untouched by the dread disease but destined to live in a leper colony and finally themselves to become vic- tims, for the present children's home is too small to accommodate another child. To spare the children of lepers this monstrous fate, $100,000 of the amount raised will be expended in erecting a new and more adequate building. Dr. Wade, who has not been away from the burning. heat of the tropics for 12 years, and a group of physi- cians trained in the Philippines have buried themselves in this far-off colony, devoting their lives to free these outcasts of humanity from the Tavages of leprosy. f AT THE MOVIES | ¢ CAPITOL THEATRE Admirers of winsome Janet Gaynor, the twenty - year-old Fox star who made an instantaneous hit as Diane in “7th Heaven,” will have another opportunity to see her in a captivat- ing role when “Sunrise,” the first picture made in this country by the noted European director, F. W. Mur- mau, opens at the Capitol Theatre for @ three-day run on Monday. “Sunrise” is the most important picture yet released by Fox Films and ‘was produced with an especially se- lected cast headed by Miss Gaynor and George O’Brien. Great as was her triumph in “7th Heaven,” her per- formance in “Sunrise” has been pro- nounced superior to anything she has previously done because it calls for a much wider range of histronic ability and puts her to a test from which less competent stars would have withdrawn. PALACE, MANDAN, TOMORROW Avaudevilleshowthat is guaranteed from the first to the last act will be on at the Palace, Mandan, tomorrow the program as the acts will appear on the stage. First will be Ray Marsh, master xylophonist. His numbers are all high class. Act two will be Lou Zoeller, well-known song writer, and Janet Bodwell, the small- est prima donna in vaudeville. Num- ber three on the program will be an exceptional headline act. Bert Saun- ders and Company offer a snappy musical comedy act entitled “Who's Who?” Act four will be an act of equal headline reputation in the per- son of Walter Brower, a monologist, who is an artist of the first rank in telling stories. Act five, Perez, Koko and Company in “A Unique Novelty.” Perez comes from a family of ath- letes who were famous in European cireuses. The screen offering with this bill will be “Wolf Fangs,” a Fox feature film packed with action from start to finish. ELTINGE THEATRE “Interference,” a Paramount pic- ture, featuring four popular film fa- vorites, opened a three-day run at the Eltinge theatre this afternoon. It is the kind of picture that lovers of sheer drama fairly revel in. The four characters who handle the interesting situations are William Powell, Evelyn Brent, Clive Brook and Doris Kenyon. It would be im- Possible to single out any player for, all four give a convincing perform- ance and have been admirably cast for the story. @ “Interference” originally was pre- sented on the English stage where it enjoyed a healthy run for two years. Next it was brought to these shores and given a showing in New York where it ran for nine months and was acclaimed throughout its run. Its transition to the screen was logical, and no finer group of players could be found to give it its screen treat- ment. “Interference” has to do with a man who cared for his wife's ca- resses too late. When he is reported killed in the war, she remarries, un- known to him and when he is found to be alive, the wife is blackmailed by a former love of her first husband. In a most unusual way, he discovers to make amends for his dissolute habits, obtains the damaging evidence —letters—and kills the revengeful one.

L. Bolley's: study of flax wilt, according to Dr. E. G. Booth of the Agricultural college extension di- vision, . Disease organisms which cause flax wilt were finally run to earth by Pro- fessor Bolley, who thus recounted the discovery as early as 1902: “Centrifuged wash water from the seed from diseased crops showed the mature spores; hence they must de- velop somewhere in quantity. One day I scraped under water some ma- ture flax stems which did not appear to bear external marks of disease, ap- Plied the centrifuge sedimentation process and thus found the regular spores in quantity. A few trips to the field and a few minutes at section cutting gave the desired views of the parasite, when many previous efforts on different dates and years had failed to locate the cause of the disease in or on the more mature plants.” Once discovered, the method was used extensively to determine wheth- er disease spores were present. In 1901, 760 samples of wheat and oats were examined for smut and in 1902, 131 samples of flax were checked for wilt disease by Professor Bolley. Commenting on the use of the cen- trifuge at that early date Mr. Bolley wrote: “I do not know whether this is the first statement of a novel use of the physician's centrifuge or not. Though previously accustomed -to its use in bacteriological examinations of milk, water, blood, urine, sputum, etc., this new found work for the centrifuge gives it a nearer place in my interest.” County extension agents in Rich- land, Cass, Burleigh, Benson, Towner and Ramsey counties will have -->- trifuge machines to determine for farmers whether their seed should be treated for smut this spring. SHEEP PROSPECTS GOOD IN WOOL WAY of Annual’ Production Before War It_ does not seem likely that~ the production of wool will soon be over- done, especially when it is considered that there are no longer any great areas of unoccupied lands where sheep can be produced in large num- bers, is the opinion of D. J. Griswold, animal husbandryman at the North Dakota Agricultural college. The world wool production decreased from 3,231,477,000 pounds in 1913 to 2,836,- 539,000. pounds in 1924. This decrease is about 88 per cent of the annual production before the war, according to Mr. Griswold. All the facts about sheep are given in detail in the revised edition of Circular 69, Sheep and Their Care, by D. J. Girswold and Don McMahan. This circular contains 118 pages and is free to anyone for the asking at the publications department of the college.

Hers 100 MucH GROOM FER ONE By Williams Oo OOH $00 - HOO HA | 7 bls THIS HAS HAPPENED RUTH LESTER, secretary, finds the body of her employer, “HANDSOME HARRY” BOR- DEN, Mcnday morning, sprawled beneath the airshaft window of his private office. He was shot between one and four Saturday afternoon. MoMANN, detective sergeant, questions the following suspects: Ruth, MRS. BORDEN, Borden's estranged wife and mother of his two children; RITA DUBOIS, night club dancer, with whom Borden was infatuated; and SACK HAYWARD, Ruth's fiance, whose office is across the narrow airshaft from Borden's. JSack’s guilt seems confirmed by the testimony of elevator boys MICKY MORAN and OTTO PFLUGER, and of BILL COWAN, Jack’s friend, who says he heard Jack threaten Borden's life Sat- urday morning when he saw Borden struggling with Ruth in the opposite office. McMann _ sends detectives to bring in CLEO GILMAN, Bor- den’s discarded mistress, and JAKE BAILEY, his bodyguard. Meanwhile he quizzes BENNY SMITH, Borden's office boy; ASHE, his manservant; MINNIE CASSIDY and LETTY MILLER, seventh floor scrubwomen. A new scar in the wall outside Jack's window and a flat bullet found on the cement seven flights below convince McMann Borden fired in self-defense at his mur- derer who stood in Jack’s window. Ashe’s and Minnie’s testimony about some mysterious woman with a contralto voice whom Borden feared, causes Jack to re- call a MARTHA MANNING who called on him about insurance but who was more interested in Borden's offices across the air- shaft. Ruth goes to Mrs. Borden's early next morning and asks her if she knows Martha Manning and is answered with a haughty significant negative. Ruth next calls on Minnie to ask her if she remembers secing in. Borden’s wastebasket an orchid-tinted en- velope which Borden received in Saturday’s mail. Minnie says she saw it in a drawer of the desk, but Ruth knows McMann has searched the desk and that no such letter was found. * * * NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXVI “But I tell you, Mr. McMann, there must be another drawer,” Ruth Les- ter insisted. She had arrived at the murdered man’s offices at half-past 10, and had almost autocratically brushed aside the detective sergeant’s brusque inquiries as to the chase she had led the plainclothesman who had been assigned to the task of “shadow- ing” her. “Minnie Cassidy described. the rawer as no deeper than a case knife is broad, and insists that it was pulled out in front of Mr. Borden-as he sat at his desk. She had to pass directly behind him to get to his wastebasket, and his obvious anger—pounding on the edge of the drawer with his clenched fist—aroused her curiosity, 80 that she looked over-his shoulder as she passed. He was evidently re- reading the letter after he had read it once and put it away in the drawer. Minnie is positive that it was a sheet of orchid-tinted notepaper, closely written in violet ink. “Then why the devil didn’t she say something about it when I questioned FE BLACK PICEO ©1929 By NEA Service, Inc. orphange, and that would kill me. You couldn’t—couldn't!—let your son —the child of our love—come to that. Harry! Please Harry! I abase myself before you. I make one last appeal— for him—your son—not me—to be his guardian, if you hate me as much as you've said you do. Do this for him! I ask nothing for myself—nothing! But Harry, in all solemnity, I warn you that you will be sorry if you do not do what I ask. I shall telephone you Saturday morning. If your answer is still no—but I won’t think hi now!—M.” ‘M!’” Ruth breathed. “Martha! —Martha Manning! Oh, the poor thing!” “Martha Manning!” the detective exploded. “You haven't told me any- thing about. hen. Why didn’t you tell me yesterday?” “I didn’t know until last night,” Ruth retorted. Then, rapidly, breath- lessly, she related to McMann the series of deductions and suppositions which had led her to an inevitable conclusion. “Though I didn’t, at first connect the writer of the orchid-tinted let- ters with the woman of the contralto voice,” Ruth acknowledged. “Some voice!” McMann commented drily. “It seems to have knocked you, Hayward, Minnie Cassidy and Frank Ashe for a goal. I’m getting sort of curious to hear it myself. Did Hayward get her address when she came to him about insurance?” “Yes. The Acropolis Hotel—one of those small, inexpensive residence hotels,” Ruth answered. * * * “Hard up—and living at a hotel,” McMann commented sarcastically. “Trying to pull Borden's leg, I guess. Blackmail. . . . Well, we'll have to look at this dame and listen to her carol her story in her ‘beautiful con- tralto voice.” The detective, was striding toward the door to give an order to Birdwell, who was still on duty in the outer office, when Ruth stopped him with a question: “And you'll send for Letty Miller, won't you? If she says that she did not leave Jack’s door on the latch when she first went in to clean his Offices, a big part of the mystery can be cleared up, for we shall know then that someone besides Jack could have entered and used his telephone—and his gun.” Letty Miller would admit anything if she thought it would help Hay- ward,” McMann commented skepti- cally. “He must have greased her palm with a good bit of silver, first and last. But it won’t do any harm to ask her. Just don’t bank too much on your pretty little theory, Miss Les- ter. “Oh, Birdwell!” he called, as he opened the door into the outer office. “Get hold of Carlson for me. He's on the floor somewhere, talking to tenants. Send him over to the Acro- polis hotel for Martha Manning. That's right—M-a-n-n-i-n-g. If she’s not in, or has checked out, tell him to get all the facts and let me know im- mediately. ... And Birdwell, have headquarters send somebody for Letty Miller, one of those scrubwomen I was interviewing yesterday. They don’t come on till four o'clock, and I don't:¢ate to_wait until then.” “Yes, sir,” well answered. “Did you get the Miller woman’s address, sir? You remember we couldn't find her yesterday morning. She moved from the rooming-house address the superintendent gave us—” “Oh, damn!” McMann __ exploded. “I forgot to ask her. See if Coghlan, her?” the detective grumbled. But he pulled out the two-inch deep middle drawer of the desk, and stooping, in- serted a hand and tapped against the roof of. the cavity exposed. .A hollow sound rewarded him. ‘You're .right. There's a drawer. above this .one,.a secret. drawer. And no apparent means of opening it. “Let me try!” Ruth suggested, and began to press her fingers against the elaborately carved strip of walnut which was undoubtedly the front end of the secret drawer, though it ap- peared to be only the edge of the desk top. Her efforts met with failure un- til her fingers pressed hard upon a carved leaf directly above the right corner of the unconcealed middle drawer, The carved strip swung slow- ly inward, revealing a shallow drawer less than an inch deep. Triumphantly the girl pulled it out. There was not one orchid-tinted letter, but six of them, with the last received on top, at the front of the little drawer: ~ “Don't destroy fingerprints Mc- Mann warned Ruth. “Here—let me handle it.” And with infinite caution, the detective drew the letter from {ts large, square envelope, touching only one corner of the sheet as he shook it out and laid it on the blotter of the dead man’s desk. “May I read it?” Ruth begged, and * “Harry, my darling,” the letter be- gan, below the two words, Friday i 5 a 3856 ie 5 E i TA EREoa gs Hele i the superintendent, did. It’s his job to keep up with his employes’ various changes of address—” “Yes, sir. Just a minute, sir,” Bird- well interrupted his chief, as the telephone rang. He listened for a moment, then. turned to McMani “It’s Clay, sir. He says she’s just turned to her apartment. He's tele- phoning from her apartment now.” “Good! Tell Clay to make it snap- py,” McMann directed. Then, when his subordinate had concluded the telephone conversation: “Any line yet on Jake Bailey, Borden’s bodyguard?” “No, sir. I'll get hold of Carlson now and send him after this Manning woman.” x * * Fifteen minutes later, while Detec- tive Sergeant McMann and Ruth Les- ter were still engaged in reading the six passionate, despairing, pitiful ap- peals for a vanished love which Martha Manning had written to Harry Borden, the woman who had taken that love from her was an- nounced: A saad Gilman and Detective Clay, sir.” “Show Miss Gilman in here. I'll talk to Clay out there,” McMann di. rected, and a moment later the detec- tive in charge of the investigation and a ‘tall, .-magnificently propor- tioned blond .woman passéd each other in the doorway. “Hul-lo!” Cleo Gilman sang out cheerily, in her slightly nasal, high- Pitched voice. As the detective pushed on through the door without answer- ing, except with one keen measuring glance, the blond woman shrugged, and addressed Ruth Lester, was seated at Borden's desk: did love these strong, men.

It would have hurt his feelings if I hadn’t pulled the ‘you- done-me-wrong line, but to tell you the truth, darling, sorry—saved me a lot of trouble, for I was really awfully busy on a new enterprise—” “Just where were you last Satur- day, after leaving your apartment at noon with your baggage?” McMann cut in impatiently. “Now, now!” Cleo shook her charm- ing head at the detective reproach- fully. “You're spoiling an awfully good story. with your crude importun- ities.
