enough to go twenty times around
the world, or in other words, to cover
nearly every mile Of the worlds rail-
ways.
Mr.. Payne does not depend upon
the commercial sources for his pic
lures. He goes after them himself
and gets the original and the genu-
inc. He goes alone and lives with
the natives and makes friends with
them. In Turkey, his friends are the
young Turks" in Asia, the Arabs,
Bedouins, the fishermen and peas
ants of Galilee; in Alaska, wild ma
ture and the gold seekers; in Hawaii,
the warm hearted natives and tropical
beauty; in Panama, the great canal
builders; in Egypt. and Rome, he
lived in the ruins of the magnificent
buildings of other centuries.
Few people realize the wonderful
beauty of that little paradise known
as Hawaii. Mr.. Payne will show
the flower girls, their love making,
idols, legends and history; a river Of
living fire, cascades and caves of
lava; descent of nearly a thousand
feet into the crater Of the largest liv-
ing volcano in the world.
-. A Real Entertainer.
J. Walter Wilson is an enter
tainer. He is an entertainer, how
ever, whose aim is to instruct as we'll
as to please. He is equally at home
in the serious and numerous num-
bers. .-', -.-
J: Walter Wilson is a versatile
genius and really combines two re-
markable talents. The one is his
ability to read involved works such
as ben Hur," "The Prospector," or
''To Him That HATH" and the other
is to introduce entertainment in a
lighter vein in the nature of charca-
ter representations. Mr.. Wilson is
equipped to give an entire program
of either of these forms of entertain
ment, or both, as the case seems to
require.
Some pleasing features of Mr.. Will
sons program are presented in his
saxophone, flute and vocal solos. In
his character representations he uses
grease paints, wigs and makeup, so
that in personal appearance, as we'll
as in mannerisms and voice, his
characters are faithfully presented

FOREIGN DRIVERS STILL
CARRYING OFF PRIZES

Yankee drivers today have given
up any idea they may have about
easy picking in the big American
auto races. The war, which caused
so many of the crack French drivers
to enlist, raised the hopes of Amer
lean drivers that American prize
money would be captured by them
selves. d,
But their hopes were vain for the
foreign drivers have just kept COM
ing. In the last three big races,
Dario Resta, the Anglo-1talian, has
copied first prize in two and second
in the other.
This is a country Of easy money
for foreign drivers. In the last two
years, the Europeans have won 1884,
900, or more than half of the purses
strung up by the speedway promoters
at Indianapolis and Chicago.
Jules Goux, the daredevil French
man, started it by taking the In
diana 50O-mile derby at the Indian
apolis Speedway in 1913. During
the same year four other pilots cross
ed the water and when they got
through they had total of $26,5OO.
out of $4,000 hung up.
- The following year was even more
profitable. They gobbled nearly ev-
erything.: Fully four fifths of the
$4,000 Indianapolis speedway purse
was taken away by the foreigners.
Rene Thomas, another death-daring
Frenchman, made the big haul. He
got $4,000.
This year was merely REPETITION
of the former years. Resta was over
the line first in the Vanderbilt cup
race at Frisco For this he received
$4,000, and he took another $40 900
at Indianapolis for second place. He.
crowned all his efforts by winning
the Chicago Derby, smashing all 200,
800, 400 and 5OO-mile records, and
winning a prize of $4,000. This
makes total Of $4,000 Resta has
won this year. And he is not through
yet.

vailed and the speculator who took
his full quota of 800 acres as allowed
under the state laws has been less

many explanations forward, but the

information of the north country.
Points to Development.
Quite generally the state lands are
covered with valuable timber and the
settlers have related their winter ex-
periences Of logging, marketing ties
and cordwood, at the same time the
spruce timber is finding ready mar
ket from the paper mills.
All these things tend to brace the
man who comes north to seek home
and the advice to go out and look
these lands over and not to rely en-
.tirely upon field notes, has brought
this condition about.

Minnesota wants and State Auditor
