There have been 18,000 people on strike in the textile mills throughout New Hampshire since the 13th of February. 1In order to alleviate the suffering which the women and chil- dren are experiencing since the strike began, the method of selling flowers was adopted and a canvass of the cities in New England is being made by groups of men and girls in autos furnished by the owners. 24 In Party. There will be 24 people in the party which will visit this city, 19 of them being girls. They will appear on the streets all day with their pos- {fes asking the public of this city to ald them in their effort to secure funds to feed the women and chil-| dren in the striking area. Much Suffering. The party is in charge of Ralph Moss, and he will direct the work here from a headquarters which has not yet bheen selected. According to Mr. Moss, the conditions in Manches- ter are pitiable at the present time through the lack of pay brought on by the strike. Success Everywhere. The delegation reports that they have met success everywhere that they have gone. In Boston one day last week, $17,000 was raised by the sale of flowers, and other places have responded in a like manner. The delegation which will be here, will go to Bristol and Waterbury after which they expect to strike the other cities in the state. LECTURES ON CHINA Rev. Dr. D.

SEEING EVIDENGE AGAINST VALENTINO District Attorney and Assistant in Mexico Investigating Los Angeles, May 19.—Investiga- tion of the marriage of Rudolph Val- entino, film actor, to Winifred Hud- nut, known professionally as Natacha Rambova, while according to Cali- fornia laws, he still was the husband of Jean Acker, film actress, was to be carried today to Mexicali, Lower Cal- ifornia, where the ceremony was per- formed last Saturday. Study Facts. Thomas Lee Woolwine, district at- torney, and Tom McClelland, one of his deputies, planned to go to the Mexican horder town, learn all pos- sible facts in the case and determine whether criminal proceedings on the charge of bigamy should be uken against Valentino. Stop at Towns. On the way to Mexicali, the officials expected to make stops at Palm Springs and El Centro, where the actor and Miss Hudnut are said to have passed some time after leaving Mexicali and before returning to Los Valentino is believed to be in Los Angeles, but Miss Hudnut is believed to be en route to New York to her father, Richard Hudnut, a per- fume manufacturer. Emphasis On Intent. At the district attorney's office, egnphasis was laid on the “intent” of Valentino. “If he left this country a few days after getting a divorce,” said Mr. Clelland, ‘‘was married in Mexico and then returned to ‘the benefit of the laws here he clearly intended to evade the law here It makes no difference | if the woman he married has left for the east.” The district- attorney concurred in the informal opinion recently given h; judges of the Los Angeles superior | ‘court that Miss Acker, from whom Valentino obtained interlocutory de- cree of divorce January 10, 1922, would be his legal wife until the de- cree was made final a year after that | date. Keeps In Seclusion. Valentino, who at the trial of the divorce action, gave his true name as Rudolpho glielmi, has been seen in public only once since his marriage to | Miss Hudnut. That was Wednesday night at Pomona, 30 miles east of Los Angeles, when he escorted his bride | to the east bound train she boarded there. It is understood the actor has engaged counsel. Federal authorities also are inves- tigating the actor's marriage. ¥rank | M. Sutrgis of the department of justice said the department desired to know whether in bringing Miss Hundut back into California, where he already | Ltad a legal wife after the ceremony at Mexicali the actor had violated the Mann white slave act. Mr. Sturgis stated also the depart- at Tiajuna, Lower California, October 3, 1921, of Frank Mayo, motion pic- ture actor, to Dagmar Godowsky, daughter of Leopold Godowsky, the pianist, four days after obtaining an interlocutory decree of divorce here. ‘Walthall Also. A marriage contracted by Henry B. Walthall also s said to be under in- vestigation by federal agents. Henry B. Walthall, screen star, who is playing in vaudeville here, express- e8 no worry as to the proposed inves- tigation into his marriage. “There are abhsolutely no grounds for an investigation into my second marriage,” he said last night. “I married my first wife, Isabelle | Fenton, ah actress, 15 years ago, we ment was interested in the marriage | | Bridgeport city .

STAGE-DOOR BEAU OF TODAY DIFFERS : New “Johony” Has Many Other| Methods for Chorus Girls Lohdon, May 18.—Stage-doorkeep- ers of London theaters say the stage-| door ‘beau’ is extinct and has been re placed by a species of young men more aptly described by the American term ‘‘stage-door Johnny.” The vanished ‘“beau,” according to the guardian of one London stage en- | trance wore a large silk hat at an acute angle, an elegant cape over his|Er! evening clothes and waited, a bouquet | in one hand, a be-rihboned box in the other, gold-knobbed swagger-stick under one arm, to greet a chorus girl and, with a graceful bow, to hand her into his private hansom-cab.

He sits| in his automobile puffing a cigarette and when the other party appears he alls from the curb: “Come on, old girl, you've been a long time.” The car starts with a jerk and the girl is hurled into a seat. “I suppose they are more sensible, but perpetual common sense makes stagedoors like most other places these days—they're awfully dull,” says one doorkeeper. 10 DECORATE GRAVES Last Resting Places of 40,000 Ameri- to be Cared for France May 30.

You are safeguarded, because priority of patent rights have been adjudicated in Court of Last Resort. Our machines are not sold outright, but are installed on a royalty basis of f0¢ for every tire carcass made. A single machine, costing $2,000, has a capacity of 200 tire car- casses every eight hours, thereby earning royalties of $100 every § hours it runs. We now have requests for over 200 machines, which will run 24 hours a day. One machine does the work of 50 men, eliminates waste—saves space and reduces overhead expenses. These machines will have to be installed by all tire manutacturers in order to mect competition, as tires made on this machine are less expensive and 1009, better than tires made by any other method. Today's price is $30 per share. This price will advance in a few days, as the assets are constantly increasing with the financing and wanufacturing of machines. Information cheerfully given.
