Honorary Degree is Bestowed Upon Dr. ' Robert Weidensall Robert Weidensall, Omaha pioneer |and resident for many years and | founder of many of the main depart- | ments of the Young Men's Christian association in its world-wide activi- | ties, was given the honorary degree of “Doctor of Association Science” in | Chicago last week. i This is the highest honorary degree | of the Young Men's Christian asso- | ciation college, and was created by its | board of trustees last July.

The ceremony took place in the | large, splendid college building, 5315 Drexel avenue, Chicago. The distinguished honor was con- | ferred upon these two persons not | only for their invaluable service in | the actual beginning and development | of the college, dating back as far as | 1884, but for their unilinching adhe- rence to all the fundamental princi- ples of the Young Men's Christian | | association, and for their faithful and | untiring service in the early develop- ment of the association and its work. Mr. Weidensall was not only the | pioneer international secretary, but pioneered almost all of the main de- partments of the association work.

C. N. and A. M. Williamson, the celebrated novelists, have written the stories of these thrilling automobile adventures. The Greater Vitagraph has dramatized and produced them in pictures. The Scarlet Runner—the big red car—plays an important part in each mystery and adventure. Christopher Race, the owner of the Scarlet Runner, is Earle Williams. He is a twentieth century knight errant—a knight of the automo- bile—always seeking adventure, always coming to the rescue of some distressed maiden. : He is as bold and daring with his red racer as any plumed and armored knight of the middle ages. Each of the twelve pictures in which Earle Williams plays the leading role is a complete story. But each has a different heroine. See them all with Earle Williams he Scarlet
