~The Shepherd Of the HiIIs.o

THE Shepherd of the Hills" a
dramatizatton of Harold Bell Wright s
novel of the same name by Mr.. Wright
and Fishery w Reynolds, is aunounc-
ed for production at the Opera House
matinee and night, Saturday, Jan. 18th
Never in the history of publishing OF
books has a novel attained such a
widespread popularity in the short
space of four years. 1t has exceeded
by one hundred thousand copies the
sale of the previous biggest seller.
David Harum" In making a play Of
his story, the author, in collaboration
with Mr.. Reynolds, has retained the
big dramatic possibilities of the book,
making the love story Of Young Matt
and Sammy Lane" his big theme. The
play would be interesting, even if 1t
only depended upon its excellent char
acter-drawing to entertain, as the
characters of the mountaineers of the
Ozarks are, indeed, unusual upon the
stage and lend a picturesqueness that
is really worth while. advt

Habits.

Habit may be either strong help
past peril, or a fetter that holds it's
victim helpless. Some young people
never consider habit forming at all;
1t is not taken into account in their
lives. They form none but accidental
and unconscious ones. If asked what
their fixed habits are they will laugh
at the question. They know so little
about it that they think they could
change any habit they have in a day.
Yet in reality they are binding them
selves in chains of iron and making a
free and happy life impossible for
themselves later on.-Selected.

lie midway between Hawaii and
Guam, but somewhat south of the
most direct line of travel. They are
lagoon islands, the navigation is
dangerous, and the only point which
might serve as a bare rendezvous Of
feet is the lagoon of Jaluit.
The Iadrone Islands extend north
ward from Guam in the direction of
the BONN Islands, which have long
been in Japanese ownership. From
Salpan, the most southerly of the
German Ladrones, Guam is visible.
The Caroline Islands extend from
the vicinity Of the Marshalls in
long chain of unimportant islands
destitute of harbors and in the pro-
longation, through the equally unim-
portant Palau group, came close to
the coast of Mindanao of the Philip
pines. The important point in the
Carolines is the island of Vap. The
har'bor there is tortuous, and beset
with coral reefs. 1t is in no sense
available for naval purposes. But
from Guam a secondary line of ca
bic extends southwest. This estab
fishes Vap as German station at the
beginning of the cable line which
reaches Berlin through the Java
seas and Asia. Vap is equipped as
radio station of such power as to
form the receiving center of aero
graph communication through battle
ship relays, independent of any con-
troll by laws of neutrality ashore.
In New Guinea Kaiser Wilhelmsland
borders the possession of Papua
which is administered by the Com
monwealth of Australia. Together
these two colonies, as yet most per-
feotly developed, occupy all of New
Guinea east of the Dutch border at
the meridian of IA degrees east.
At Herbertshoehe, in the Bismark
Archipelago, is small center of
German commerce, station second
airy to the Samoan headquarters of
the Dutch Handelsund Plantag gen
Gesellschaft of Hamburg, the sue
cessor to the old Firma Godeffroy,
which introduced a colonial policy to
Bismark's German Empire. In the
Marshall and the Caroline Islands,
commerce is almost wholly in the
hands of the JaIuit Gesellschaft
Should Japan and Germany not
compose their difficulties which have
led to the delivery of the ultimatum
by Toxic, all these islands would lie
open to attack and possible seizure
by Japan. This would establish an
alienation of American and Japa-
nesn interest athwart the Pacific
Counting westward from Hawaii, the
first wedge would be Japanese
Marshalls between American Hawaii
and American Guam. At Guam
would be japanese Ladrones across
narrow channel. Between Ameri-
can Guam and American Philippines
would be interjected another wedge
in Japanese CaroEnes
| Such a condition of alienation of
spheres of influence would be sing
ularly distasteful to a considerable
element of Americans. The occupa-
ton by japanese of the German po-
sessions in New Guinea, the Bismark
Archipelago, the Solomons and Sa-
moa would be equally distasteful to
a very large element of the British
population of Australia
