Wherever he hung his hat there also was his home. He has been in prisons in Rio de Janeiro, Bernambuco and Rouen, France. “It was nothing serious, you know,” he said. “Just an occasional drunk and a fight here and there with a policeman.” And he always has kept moving. Once a rich man, he knows what it; is to go broke in Wall street. “I fell from drinking champagne to nickel ‘scats’,” he -saya-° = Thirty times he has crossed the Atlgntic, he has been around Cape He nine timés, once after: being sh jed,.and fgr six years lived the life of|a busHelmag in Adatrall rn cele in the magazines hav: heen dev: to the story of his life, feature writers for the at news-| papers. have found color without the use of the brush in detailing his life history,'find today he stands out as a rejuveriatéd man. who is devating the last days of his life to the work which he feels: has first claim-on him. ; It was. in; the Jerry McAuley Rescue iniasion, the celebrated life saving tation under Brooklyn bedsr down -in Water street, New () that John ‘Tyler was reclaimed from his life of drunkeriness and mibery.

HAS OLD ROLE Douglas Fairbanks seems destined to score another immense success in his new Artcroft photoplay. He Comes Up Smiling,” which will be the attraction at the Iris theater Sunady. He created the original role of Jerry Martin, a tramp, in the strange ver- sion produced in New York in 1914. The screen story was directed by Allan Dwan and written by Frances Marion. “He Comes Up Smiling,” is the tale of a tramp, or rather a young chap who tires of existence as a bank clerk and elects to follow the life of & knight of the road. His adventures on the big highway, his contests with other tramps, his defeat of a stock market scheme and his final winning of the girl of his choice, are the ele- |ments of a story so mirth-provoking |that it is said to exhaust even those 'who love to laugh and grow fat. | One of Mr. Fairbank’s stunts is to leap across a ten-foot creek, but this is the least exciting of his feats. |Many of the scenes were photograph- led in beautiful Bear Valley, Cal., |while others were made at Mr. Fair- | bank’s country home, with its swim- jming pool and classic edifices. A ten-roomed house shown in cross-sec- tion is another notable effect. It is said that the athletic star never has had a role which afforded him better opportunities for the display of his engaging personality and powers of vivid portrayal, while his agility and effervescence are continually in evi- dence. . Mr. Fairbanks is splendidly sup- ported, his, leading woman . being Marjorie Daw.

Anderson, director of Red Cross activities in the Near East, “it will be only because we lack the transportation facilities. to reach the remoter interior sections. We have gathered up millions of pieces of clothing and thousands of tons of food from every nook and corner f Europe and will rush them to those sections of the Balkan ‘States which are most in need. “We have taken over the surplus socks of relief supplies held by the American Red Cross Commission to Italy. We have diverted to our use, ‘for distribution in the Balkan Penin- 'sula, large quantities of material in- tended for use in France and other ‘countries during the war. One of the principal items is condensed milk, of which we are shipping more than three million cans. This doubtless will save thousands of starving chil- dren.” RECRUITING OFFICERS WANTED, ALSO MOTOR GAR ORVER AT DENVER Two men were enlisted Friday by Sergeant Hanks of the Casper sta- tion for service with the American Expeditionary forces and another re- cruit was rejected.

Whether rightly so or not, it is nevertheless true that men and women are commonly esti- mated in accordance with the degree of prosperity evidenced by outward appearance, and it is therefore reasonable to assume that a proper regard for this essential will exert an important influence as an aid to business or social advancement. To dress well is not necessarily to dress extravagantly nor to don spectacular toggery— but to appear sufficiently well attired to inspire our own self- respect and self-confidence and to attract the notice and approval of our associates.
