REALIZING GOLDEN PERFECTION

When William Fox, New York
motion picture magnate, read the
script of "a Daughter of the Gods
the bewitching love and fairy story
which will be shown at the Grand
Opera House, April 19-20-21, THURSDAY.
Friday and Saturday. he was at once
fascinated by its Photographic posi-
utilities and the wealth of imagination
displayed by the author. Only a per-
son who had at some time seen
Solomon, in all his regal splendor, or
the Queen of Sheba, in hers, could
have pictured such expensive investi-
ture as the script described. Yet.
William Fox had always wanted to
create the finest picture that ever
had been or could be produced, and
he saw in this exquisite dream-story
the medium for the most artistic
talent in the cinematic world.
He knew if he could secure for his
star, to portray Anita a half
celestial, around which the play re-
volvess the most perfectly formed and
mentally and physically courageous
woman in the world-Miss Annette
kellerman-thiSm million dollar outlay
would be pretty we'll covered.
This he succeeded in doing, and
every artisan and artistic employed on
the feature in Jamaica, where the
big venture was filmed, was measured
by million dollar standard of per-
lection. The result is an artistic
masterpiece, tiawlesS and absolute.

Y. NJ. C. A. NOTES

The Leaders course which has been
conducted for the past six weeks,
closed last evening. G. S. Snyder gave
that portion of the course relative to
Teaching" the class; G. F. Ogden gave
the part of the course dealing with the
life of the Boy" and w. r. Boorman
on "Organized Work. The boys will
take the International Leaders exam
ination next Wednesday for Leaders
certificates.
One of the features of the last meet
ing was a most interesting demonstra
ton of model Boys bible club of
grammar school boys. This club has
been in charge of Gilbert Wegner,
Julius Wilke and Gilbert Eckerle all
winter. Roy Schaumburger presided,
Carl Giesler acted as vice president
and Norman Kieckhoefer as secretary.
After the roll call to which each boy
responded with bible verse, the boys
discussed such business as hikes,
spring banquet, regular meeting, alb
sent members, and planning flower
chart. Then w. r. Boorman presented
the lessen on the Life of Paul" The
demonstration was an unusual OPP
portunity to see what even grade
school boys can do along the line of
organized bible clubs.
The date of the K. K. K. Minstrel
show at Marathon has been changed
to April 18th. The boys have been
practicing for the show which promis
es to be unusually good. The end
men are Fred Croker, Wilbur Dodge,
Thorwald Jensen, Carl Helke, Emory
Skinner and Cecil Coel. Each end man
will sing a solo which has been Sc
lected to fit the voice of the boy. The
| balance of the show will consist of
vaudeville stunts prepared by Wilbur
Dodge, Carl Helke, Neal and Russell
Cook. The boys will be entertained at
supper while in Marathon by the High
school pupils who are in charge of the
show.
The annual boys banquet was given
in the "Y'' gymnasium last evening.
Each table marked boys depart
ment and the national colors were
used in decorating. During the ban
quet hour an orchestra furnished mu-
sic and the various departments gave
their yells. A delicious dinner was
served after which a program was
given. Gilbert Wegner, president of
the boys department, presided. Fol-
lowing was the program:

Regulate FoOdstuffs

Today the people of America are up
against starvation prices for food.
Secretary Hauston has begun con-
feren ces with leading men of congress
on bills which he deems necessary to
cope with the nations food situation,
and President Wilson is considering
the issuance of a proclamation along
the same lines.
Secretary Hauston has started an
organization extending into every state
in the union for the conservation of
food supplies.
It is said that the breweries of this
country alone consume 20,OOO,OOO
bushels of grain annually for the
manufacture of distilled liquors, and
it is being planned to reserve this
for food purposes.
Crews taken from the German and
Austrian merchantmen in American
waters are to be moved to especially
designated farming communities,
where they will be given an oppor-
tunity to till the soil and grow their
own food.
There have been times in the his
tory of this country, when crops have
been a failure. Right here in Mara
thon county last year. the farmers and
others who planted potatoes hardly
got back what they planted. The same
can be said of other vegetables.
The Pilot would give this advice
to its readers: Let each family raise
enough vegetables for it's own use, and
enough over to help a neighbor in dis
tress.
The whole thing in nutshell is that
the United States should keep enough
foodstuffs at home to feed its own
people, and as we are now going to
have an immense army which must
go forth and fight it's battles of pro-
lection, shouldn't there be an effort
made in the right direction-keep our
food stuffs at home to keep our own
soldiers from the possibility of starry
ing.
Talk about conserving; there is
nothing to conserve; that's why we
are paving so cents for butter, $3.50
a barrel for -four, $500 a bushel for
potatoes and other foods in proper
ton.
