AT THE ILLINOIS,

Quo Vadis,'' the superb photo
drama reproduction of Henry Sien-
kiewicz's world famous novel, comes
to the Illinois Nov. s to 8. Aside from
the many features there is an unde-
niable fascination about the story of
Vinitius' passion for the sweet Lygia
and the adage that the course of true
love never runs smooth etc, is
proved as far back as A d. &c and 6S
by this very picture romance. II is
human and human nature is the same
today as it was in the days of Nero
and all the other Caesars and Roman
emperors. And that is what the public
likes whether it is novels, dramas,
paintings or photo dramas. There has
been much wonderment at the mag
nitude and beauty of some of the
scenes, notably the interior and gar
den scenes. But the locale is Italy
where landscape beauty is still a
world sight The Cines company OF
Italy is composed of many of the
wealthiest men of Rome and the Bank
of Italy is also said to be largely in
terested in the company. Many OF
the wealthy nobility are stockholders

FLASHES From ,he Aruentine.

Chicago, Oct. 29.-Argentine wheat
crop may not exceed 1912 results ser
iously and India shipments are to
cease. During November and Decem-
Der last year these countries exported
about 100000 wheat per week.
Last fall India ran 100000 per week.
A moderate 1928 surplus of 100000
600 in Argentina means that its new
crop marketings will not be sent to
Europe with any particular breezy
rush late next February.
Argentine November news will sway
wheat. 1t raises a surplus of 6O,OO0,-
600 to 100000 Present surplus
promises 1O6,000,o00. Eighty-five per
cent of its wheat is not cut until De-
cember. New wheat crop can suffer
heavy loss in November any year. New
wheat crop from Argentina is vital in
the Chicago pit until December.
Since July l, 1913, the Argentine has
shipped the trife of 100000 wheat
abroad, against 100000 one year
ago This indicates that Argentina
wants its new wheat just as quickly
as the foreigner.
The Argentine exhausted its wheat
by shipping 100000 for year end
ing July /, 1918, against sS,000.0O0 the
preceding year. Recent news is an
indication that further damage reports
will be flashed from Buenos Aires and
our wheat will reflect.
About 100000 Argentine corn has
been imported by our eastern friends
but this is mainly for price effect, as
the syrup men do not love to send
Argentine corn through their crush
ers. 1t is an inferior corn.
Oats continue to be in the shadow

WAGNER'S REVIEW
CLOSING Stock Letter.

New York, Oct. 29.-Although some
irregularity prevailed today, yet we
think that once again it was made
evident to the variest tyro that the
supply of stocks is small. The most
important factor on the bull side today
was the disposition TO regard publish
ed expressions by the chairman OF the
interstate commerce commission as ev-
idence of change of policy on that
board. Wheeling & Lake Erie awoke
from its long sleep, the buying being
attributed to statements made In the
course of legal proceedings that the
receivership will be vacated shortly.
There was a demand for New York
City bonds, all these issues being
strong. 1t is a professional market,
with comparatively little outside bust,
ness; but stocks are well held. They
are not dear, and we cannot escape
the conviction that activity, when il
shall have made its appearance. will
be ccincident with higher prices.

and Van Baalen was riding in an auto
mobile with his wife. Something
caused the auto to stop, and the four
engaged in conversation. Before Van
Baalen left he hau written his name
and address on a cigaret box and had
managed to slip it into her hand.
This chance meeting was the be-
ginning of their acquaintance. Miss
Alexander accompanied Van Baalen
to Cuba year ago. There. she said,
he threa ened to kill her because she
looked at another man.
Throughout the past year the two
had been often together. The wom-
an says she urged Van Baalen to re
turn to his wife, from whom he had
become estranged in the meantime,
but he persistenfly refused. Once she
went so far as to telephone the wife
that her husband was in the Alex
ander apartments. Mrs. Van Baalen,
accompanied by a policeman, hurried
to the place, but just before they got
there Miss Alexander relented, and
Van Baalen fled down the fire escape.

All honor to the Obion County Court.
They have, by their action last Monday,
taken one OF the wost sensible steps in
the history Of the court. We have no
criticism to make on the magistrates
who voted against the high school tax.
They are all honorable men and con-
scicntiously discharged their duty They
met the issue according to their own
Judgment We believe, however, that
the adoption Of the county high school
system in Obion County was both an
advance movement and a practical
one. The levy is ten cents on the huns
dred, which. it is estimated, will pro-
vide for three schools. The county can
utilize these schools to the best adyan-
tage. Our people can save the money
they have been spending in sending to-
schools outside Of the county. True It
is not paid out in the same way. Those
who have been sending to outside schools
we're the only ones affected. With the
county schools all the property owners
contribute to the tax, butthe advantages
are that the money remains in the
county and great many more families
can afford the higher education under
the new system. After these schools
have been ia operation for some time
we guarantee that very few II any would
want to return to the old system. I'll
remains for the Superintendent Of Pub
lie Instruction and the high school
board to perfect the plans No CONF
munity should be allowed to use any OF
this money for buildings. The district
which furnished buildings should have
first consideration in tho location Of
these schools. The money should 60 az
far as possible 10 the education Of our
boys and girls. The county high school
should be one Of the permanent insti-
buttons Of the county, and we have no
doubt that II the proper management
is used it win be. Everything use-l
full must have good management, and
we believe the high school board and
the superintendent are all men OF good
Judgment.
