MistIetoe,

In ancient times garlands and 3
quets of the mistletoe were hung
taverns and doorways to ward off g,
and by many worn as an amulet
tracing good influences. This ave
sion doubtless sprang from a Christi
prejudice against a plant deemed Sc
cred by the pagans, legend of 5's
monks holding that the mistletoe bohe,.
was cursed and never again permit
o grow as an Independent grow
since it had been the free fr01n w,
was fashioned the cross of the cg;l
cifxion. In the West Of England mis-
letoe is not allowed to enter into
hurch decorations.

TIRE COMPANY FINDS
HOMES FOR WORKERS
Firestone People Build Houses for
EMPLOYEES at Akron, Ohio.

Finding homes and providing enter
tainment for its 1900 employees in "the
city of standing room only Is the
task set for itself by the Firestone
Tire and Rubber Company, of Akron,
Ohio.
Hundreds of new workers pouring
into the city which has run away
from itself" as one magazine writer
describes it, have presented a gigantic
problem in housing. The Firestone
company early saw the difficulties of
getting men to stay at their Jobs
unless they were given clean, pleas
ant places to live, and Immediately
set about the solution of the prob
lem. A huge allotment has been OPEN
ed by the company not far from the
plant, and lots are sold to employees
on easy payments at low prices. A
house may be built at cost by the en-
ploye and paid for per cent down
and / per cent a month.
For these workers the company has
built little village of temporary
homes on the ground surrounding its
plant. In this village, where the
dwellers live a simple life there are
accommodations for 1000. The COM
! munity is governed by the strictest
sanitary and police regulations en-
forced by the villagers themselves.
Doctors and nurses make weekly in
spections and report the village is the
healthiest community in Akron.

WHY DXON'S QUALIFY.

Dixon-lubricated cars are almost in
variably first across the finish line in
the big racing classics. This has been
a fact for so long that one by one
the noted drivers, convinced by these
demonstrations of Dixon dependa bill
ity. have climbed aboard the Dixon
chariot and use Dixon's to guarantee
freedom from friction in the motor
marathons. This all goes to show that
Dixon's run true to form even under
the extraordinary strain of 100 miles
per hour.
The speed boys know that when they
lubricate with Dixon's they may dis
miss friction worries from their
minds.
We don't all drive Peugeot racers,
but everyone who drives, or hires
others to do it, Is on the lookout for
anything that means increased mile
age. quieter, smoother running, less
upkeep cost. Dixon's qualify in a de-
pendability test. no matter whether
the car is built in the interests of
sport. trade or pleasure.

provided the school with a fine phono-

The girls of Bokod make their own
dresses. That doesn't mean that they
go down to store, pick out three
kinds Of cloth, the right kind Of thread
a paper pattern and a package Of sew
ing machine needles and then slap the
thing together until the dressmaker
can come and really make something
out of the materials SO enthusia stically

poll PLAYERS MAY
STAR in COMEDY
Robert Frazer and ]. H. DALEY
Planning Original Production.

It is well within the probabilities
that Robert w. Frazer. leading man
Of the Poll Players, and J. Hammond
Daley, one of the most popular MEM
bers OF that organization, will star in
a comedy of their own next season.
And this comes about through the
wonderful success of these two play
ers in comedy roles in the past two
weeks. Poll patrons were delighted
beyond measure at the work of these
two men in the name parts of Potash
and Perlmutter" and in Some Baby
last week. An offhand offer was made
to both men last week to go under
distinguished management in a suit
able vehicle. but their fellow-players
are endeavoring to influence them to
the contrary. Both are actors OF
splendid dramatic force. During his
long engagements in Washington, Mr..
Daley has given repeated demonstra-
tions of his versatility and capacity
in meeting the demands that come to
stock actors. while Mr. Frazer. the
Poll Players leading man. has given
such good account Of himself in the
Poll organization that he is a fixture
on the payroll.
