TUESDAY, JUNE 8, 1926. MONROE TODAY Richard Dix Popular With Texas Cowboys) That Richard Dix is as good a fellow in real life as he is upon the screen is the firm conviction of thirty-two Texas cowboys, who ‘were recently honored with the star’s presence when he turned down an invitation to eat in the ranch-house so as to dine with them on the rough board tables| of the cow-hands’ chuck-room. On a location thirty miles out yf Houston, Texas, where the Dix company was filming scenes for Arthur Stringer’s ‘‘Womanhand- Jed,” two separate tables were laid for each meal. At one table, in the ranch-house, was room for the director, the players and mem- bers of the staff. At the other, located in the ranch chuck-hall, were accommodations for the cow- boys. Every noon, despite the -that the motion picture com- pany’s table was covered with a linen table-cloth and silver cut- lery was used, Dix insisted’ upon going out to the chuck-house and “helpin’ hisself” to the ranch- hands’ simple food. “There certainly ain’t nuthin’| snobbish about him,” said one rawboned cowboy. “I allus had the impression that these movin- pitcher actors was high-brow and didn’t pay no ’tention to us sim- ple folk. I see I was all wrong.” Esther Ralston heads the cast appearing in support of the star in “Womanhandled,” the answer to “Manhandled” by the same author, which shows at the Mon- roe Theatre today. Margaret Morris, Cora Williams, Olive Tell, Eli Nadel, Edmund Breese, Ivan Simpson and Edgar Nelson com- plete the line-up. Luther Reed wrote the screen play. _ TOMORROW Corinne Here In “Classified” Tomorrow One of the most distinctive beauties of the screen, Corinne Griffith, First National star, was born in Texarkana, Tex., and was educated at Sophie Newcomb Col- lege in New Orleans. Later the family moved to Mineral Wells, | fact | ly | { An artificial ocean has had its part | in the development of the Western} Electric Company's permalloy cable which was perfected through several years of patient labor and research on the part.of the Bell Telephone Labora- tories, and then, overniglit, revolit ized submarine cable transmission. ‘I first cable of the new type was between the Azores and New Yor!

Miss Griffith, seeking a field for aesthetic expression, went to Dallas to béecome a terpsiciorean attractiqn at the ‘ fashionable Adolphus Hotel. She attracted the attention of Rollin Sturgeon, veteran einema director, when she won first prize in a beauty contest and started her screen eareer in pictures under his di- rection in Vitagraph three-reelers. Later Vitagraph co-featured her with Earle Williams in five- recl offerings, then featured her in a series of O. Henry pictur- isations and followed this with nine starring vehicles for the now celebrated beauty. Remarkable work as a free lance followed, her role in “Black Oxen” attracting particular at- tention, this being the first of her productions for First National, to whieh concern she is now under contract. Her latest offering is “Classi- fied.” This is an adaptation from @ magazine story by Edna Ferber. It shows at the Monroe Theatre tomorrow. CURFEW LAW IN NEW YORK CITY (Hy Associated Prensa) NEW YORK, June 8.—Broad- way was almost as deserted as Main street in a small town in the small hours this morning, due to & curfew law that went into effect at 2 o'clock. Police inspectors were busy from midnight on going from club to club, in the bright light section, explaining the or- der, which was obeyed without protest in most instances.

Permalioy i: alloy of iron and nickel whi remarkable niagnetic properties ; in fact, the most magnetic substa known... Shortly after the iny q of this alloy, it was found that 1) magnetic perties of thé metal ar quite sensi to mechanical ‘stresses and it was necessary to find if suc! stresses would be present under dee sea conditions. “WouJd the customar methods of cabN manufacture b satisfactory when used with the sensi tive permalloy, or what changes shoul:! be made? ‘To answer these questions, ‘sample cables had to be made and tested under deep sea conditions. + The most important deep sea con- dition is the great pressure; since | everything at the bottom of the ocean is Supporting the pressure of all the water above it. Recalling the weig! of a cubic foot of water, i ost that the presstire one down in the ocean is somewhat more than a long ton per square inch. single square foot of the sea bottom only one mile down supports a weight | 2 of water greater than a couple of | heavily loaded freight cars. Wha such pressures might do to permalloy & link connect the Azores. with «auch ‘omt water jackets around the heavy Ait | stresses had been encountered during ‘Imitation’? Ocean Used by Sci In Developing New Deep Sea Cable to be answered, Specially designed test nines were stalled for tests of cores about twenty feet long, and one .pipe fiity feet long was provided. Pressures up to 6,000 pounds per square inch are customary, and it is possible to use 10,000 pounds iff one of the pipes, so at we can reproduce conditions more an four miles under the ocean. A 'y powerful pump is necessary, and for the storage of water under such pressures an hydraulic accumulator was installed. his is sentially a ler containing a vertical piston »f one square inch sectional area. ‘Lhe upper end of the piston can be loaded vith iron weights, up to 10,000 pounds, so that the water pressure within the cylinder, and in the test pipe con lected to it, must be the same number f pounds per square inch. Sesides. the enormous pressures at sea bottom there is another condition, less generally known. ‘The water down there ‘is very cold, being tround thirty-nine degrees Fahrenheit ihe reason for this is simple enough shen‘ it is remembered that sea water 3 denser at this temperature than at her temperatures, thus leaving the bottom at a constant low tem erature, To reproduce this condi ion of the ocean it was necessary to draulic pipes in which the cores are sted and circulate through them ‘er cooled. by passing through a mk filled with cracked ice. The first test conductors were made ollowing as nearly as possible the tandard cable practice of the time. he annealed, permalloy wrapped, ‘copper conductors were coated with a tesinous material known as erton’s compound, just sufficient to cover the surface, before insulat- ing with gutta percha. In such form, he conductor is known as cable core, and many important tests are made t this stage in the manufacturing process. Inductance measureme nowed that no serious mechanical 3] of he REY hes Sees tence Above: These Pumps create @ pressure equal to that of three miles of sea water. Left: Attaching test leads to a cable core emerging from pipe. in the pressure pipes, and the stuffing boxes were tightened down, prepara to applying the pressure. N serious effects were observed up » this point. But when the pump wa started, and the pressure was allowe se slowly just as if the cabl king into the sea, the induc tance of the samples began to de crease, and had fallen to only one quarter of the desired amount befon one mile depth had been reached evidently the old type of cable con | struction would not serve with th: sensitive permalloy loading. The next test was to determine i) the permalloy loading was really af liected by the sea water Pressure, o1 if it was because the pressure wa: applied to the outside of the gutta percha only. An uncovered loade¢ conductor was tested under pressure Here the water could penetrate undet the permalloy loading, and the full sea pressure was applied equally te both sides of the tapes. The indue- tance was not noticeably affected up to the highest pressures, which showed that if the permalloy floated in 3 liquid medium, it would not be in: iured by deep sea pressure. A solution of the problem wa: finally found, by the development and proper application of a compound whose quality is that it remains quite fluid at low temperatures. After the permalloy tape is applied and hea’ treated, the whole conductor is vacuum impregnated and coated with is compound, before the application of the gutta-percha insulation. Now, as the cable is subjected to increasing pressure, the gutta-percha compresses as in the earliest tests, but it is sup- ported by the semi-fluid compound, which conveys the pressure effect to both sides of the nermalloy loading, thus leaving it unstressed. A great deal of work had to be done before arriving at a satisfactory compound, but this and other difficul- ties were overcome. The first cable his type is now in satisfactory operation, and is transmitting three or four times as many messages per hour loaded cable was a question which had | covering, so the samples were inserted! as any of the old-type cables. _ FOR A_ HEALTHY, HONoR.| ABLE, NATURAL OLD AGE Keeping the body in good phy- sical repair is the best possible in- surance for a healthy, enjoyable, | natural old age.

HL McINNIS’ RECORD | : (Communicated) | Much has been said with refer- ence to the candidacy of A. H. for the widow and children of the |late Sheriff what Mr. Curry work-} ed so hard to obtain. It is quite true that Sheriff Curry only |served eighteen months of his two| years, and the writer thinks that| his family should have the benefit! lof the office, and knows that Mr. | | McInnis would see that they got} \it. But little has been said with | reference to the ,qualifications of | Mr. McInnis to hold this important | | office. perhaps the most importaat office in the County. It carries with it} jgrave responsibilities, and the’ man placed in this position should | have tact and judgment, should} be a diplomat, should have a level head, and at all times be ready to imeet any emergency that: might|,, | arise. | My view is, that Mr. McInnis qualifications, and }would be the right man in the| right place at this time. He served the people as Sheriff |for four years, and at a time| when it required a man of more than ordinary ability. Shortly af- ter he took oath of office the |world war came on, and this be-| ing a seaport city and an impor-} tant point for the operations of our Government in: equipping men and boats for the war, it will be |remembered that thi: ity was a jbee-hive of ac Every |branch of the Government was jrepresented here, the Army, | Marines, Aviation, Artillery, st | Guard, Secret Service and all] {other branches were represented | jand had thousands of men going (and coming at all times. Togeth- | er with this we had toughs to deal | with, crimes of all kind were being | |pulled off and thousands of things jcoming up daily that required the itime and efforts of a Sheriff. |There were numerous investigat- jing committees in and out from Washington looking after the in- terest of the enlisted. men in which the Sheriff and other offi- cials were called in, and it cannot be denied that Mr. McInnis as our Sheriff handied the very difficult situation, came through with fly- ing colors, and was commended by the Government. In addition to his duties as Sheriff Mr. McInnis was called upon by the Government, and} served as Chairman of the Draft Board, this required much labor, many nights of hard work; and tact and skill to handle. Since the war Mr. McInnis has served as Chief Deputy to the late Roland Curry, Sheriff, and it is well known that he has aequitted himself well in this capacity. He was an advisor of Mr. Curry, and attended to all the detail work of pthe office. When all is said and done, Mr. McInnis is well quali- fied to fill this important office and in my opinion it would be a serious mistake to make a change at this time. QUALIFIED VOTER.
