Not like any other story you
ever read before is "TarSan of
TIL Apes" While you are read
ing it you would like to pause TO
ask yourself Is it possibze?" but
you can't because Me story is so
fascinating that pausing is i'm
possible. IT'S a yarn Of the you
can't stop until you finish lit
kind.
1t may have happened in the
wilds Of Africa just as the author
relates ii, or it may not-we do
NOT know whether or not he has
a basis Of fact for his story-but
you are not q scientist while you
r reading it. You are just an
ordinary human being, with a
lore for q story that is absorbing

ing perhaps $50 pounds. His forehead
was extremely low and receding, his
eyes bloodshot, small and close set to
his coarse, fiat nose; his ears large and
thin, but smaller than most of his
kind.
His awful temper and his mighty
strength made him supreme among the
little tribe into which he had been born
some twenty years before.
Now that he was in his prime, there
was no simiah in all the mighty forest
through which Re roved that dared
contest his right te rule, nor did the
other and larger animals modest him.
Old Tantor, the elephant, alone Of all
the wild. savage lite, feared him not
and him alone did Kerchak fear. When
Tantor trumpeted the great ape sour
ried With his fellows high among the
trees of the second terrace.
The tribe Of an%thropoids, over which
kerchak ruled with an iron hand and
barred fangs, numbered some six or
eight families, each family consisting
Of al adult male with his wives and
children-some sixty or seventy apes,
all told.
Kala was the youngest wife of a
male called Tublat, meaning Broken
Nose" and the child she had seen dash
ed to death was her first, for she was
but nine or ten years old.
Notwithstanding her youth, she was
large and p~owerful-a splendid. clean
limbed animal, with a round, high fore
head. which denoted more intelligence
than most of her kind possessed. So
also she had a greater capacity for
mother love and mother sorrow.
But she was still an ape. a huge,
fierce. terrible beast Of a species close
~ allied to the gorilla, yet with more
intelligence, which, with the strength
Of their cousins, made her kind the
most fearsome of those awe inspiring
~progenit0rs of man.
When the tribe saw that Kerchak's
rage had ceased they came slowly
down from their arboreal retreats and
pursued again the various occupations
which he had interrupted. The young
played and frolieked about among the
trees and bushes.
They had passed an hour or so thus
when Kerehak called them together
and, with a word of command to them
to follow him, set off toward the sea.
They Travelled for the most part upon
the ground, where it was open, follow
ing the path Of the great elephants

whose comings and goings break the
only roads through the tangled jungle
mazes of bush, vine, creeper and tree.
When they walked 1t was with a roll
ing, awkward motion, placing the
knuckles Of their closed hands upon
the ground and swinging their ungain-
ly bodies forward.
But when the way was through the
lower trees they moved more swiftly,
swinging from branch to branch with
the agility of their smaller cousins, the
monkeys. And all the way Kala car
ried her little dead baby Rugged close
ly to her breast.
1t was shortly after noon when they
reached a ridge overlooking the beach,
where below them lay the tiny cottage
which was Kerchak's goal.
He had seen many of his kind 60 to
their deaths before the loud noise made
by the little black stick in the hands of
the strange white ape who lived in that

Beautiful stage pictures suffused

Italian comedy, The Merchant of

Shakespeare, were he living. today,
would take advantage of all modern
mechanical and electrical equipment of
the stage to make his pictures effective,
and he has mounted all the plays in his
repertoire of eleven accordingly 1t is
true that in Shakespeare day the
stage settings were very simple and
very crude. But this was because in
ventive genius had not yet discovered a
way to make them otherwise. The
producer in those days had to depend
on candles, crude oil lamps or torches
for his lights. With the application of
electricity to the stage unlimited fields
for the scenic artist were opened and
stage productions became the beautiful
pictures they are today. MIR. Mantell' s

the utmost Importance to keep
these guns quiet.
THE shell is charged with high

GOES into "HELL'S HALF ACRE"
ITO LEARN THE Ways OF THE "vAG"

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Dec. L.
Among the loiterers in "Hell's
Half Acre" here loafs from time
to time an unkempt figure,
stumbling in walk and slovenly in
dress.
This figure is none other than
Bill" Brown of the staff of Geo.
B. McKeeby, city prosecutor. To
him is entrusted the task off pros
ecuting vagrancy cases. Many of
the so-ealled "vags" are merely
jobless unfortunates. Brown did
not see the sense of furnishing a
man because he couldn't find
work. He thought that 1t would
he a good idea to help the worthy,
instead of sending hobo and un-
fortunate worker alike to the
rockpile.
So he determined to extend a
helping hand to those who were
merely "out of luck" He set
about getting suspended sentences
for them, and trying to find them
work, here and elsewhere.
In order that he might intelli-
gently Gull the sheep from the
goats, and also that he might
grasp the point of view of the job
less and get other information
which would be of value in trying
to cope with the annual unem-
pioyed problem, Brown decided to
go to the "vags" in their own
haunts, associate with them, talk
with them, and get into as close
touch as possible with the "un-
der groove" element.
The plan worked like a charm.
brown spent, and is still spending,
many hours daily with those
strange, alien Americans who are
stunned like lepers when they dare
to show their unshaven faces
among their more luck country
men. He acquired, and is still ac-
curing, much valuable knowledge
which he uses in court in dealing
with the "vags."
II have had a lot of queer ex-
perience since / started this"
said Brown. Several times pa
trolmen have been on the verge of
picking me up as suspicious
character. ! have had thugs
sound me as to my willingness to
participate in holdups and rob-
berries, and i have heard hardluck
stories galore--both fabricated
and genuine.
More than once | have met
close friends who failed to recog-
nize me in the tough who crossed
their path. | have heard dozens
of revolutionary plans discussed
and incendiary sentiments ex-
pressed, and, ON the other hand, I
have heard many sane and sound
plans for remedying bad condi-
items"

HARVEST HANDS.

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 1.--itail-
road officials. state labor commits
sioners and number of farmers
gathered here today for the open
Ing of hearing before the Unit
ed States commission on indus
trial relations to determine how
best to distribute harvest hands
In the great grain growing states
OF the west and northwest.
Investigators for the commits
sion are prepared to show that
the present lack of system In
handling the labor problem in the
west is not only unsatisfactory to
both the farmers and the men
seeking jobs but has in some in
stances resulted in riots and Sc
rious disturbances I'm The harvest
fields. Their reports will show
that each year thousands of men
flock to the harvest fields from
the cities and undergo hardships
because of their inability to get
work promptly, while in other
districts farmers are suffering
from a shortage OF help.
Representatives of the rail-
roads, the state labor commits
sions and the farmers will be ask
cd to suggest plan to remedy
this trouble. The commission
probably will then suggest the
appointment of committee to
work out a system OF distribution
of farm labor.
