A FAIRY TALE FOR YOUNG AND
OLD -

Anette Kellermann, the famous diving
We nus, is the sensation of the theatrical
season in Minneapolis, where twice a
day, she is seen at the Lyric Theatre,
in the mangifcent water spectacle, "a
Daughter of the Gods produced by
William Fox in the island of jana ca at
cost of a round million dollars.
Nothing to equal this spectacle in
regal mangnifcence has ever been fash
ed on the screen, in the opinion of
Minneapolis theatregoers, who are pack
ing the Lyric at every performance.
Miss Keller1nann and her mermaids
swim about in the blue waters of the
tropic ocean by day and night in the
primal innocence of, fairy lore. They
ride. the waves that threaten to dash
them to pieces, or float like the tabled
creatures Of mythology on a surface
smooth as glass. .'..s
A thrilling fairy tale, involving Moor
ish princes, gnomes, elves, and all the
picturesque personages of the Arabian
Nights stories is told. The story re-
lates the adventures of beautiful girl,
Anita, who is prosecuted by strange
fate, but befriended by good fairy.
During the course of the tale, Anita
escapes from tail tower by diving
103 feet into the ocean; swins over high
waterfall, and dives into a woodland
pool Of unearthly beauty, from tropic
tree. 1t is in such stunts as these that
Miss Kellermann displays her skill and
grace that have made her the most
famous swimming beauty in the history
of the world. ...... -.s...
A part of the story takes place in a
Moorish city of magic grandeur. This
city was built at a cost of $350.000. In
the climax of the play, it is destroyed
by fire. The scene is perhaps the most
spectacular yet produced in motion
pictures. ...> 81 4.. -. :,
"A Daughter of the Gods is being
presented in Minneapolis with a big
orchestra, and exactly in the manner it
is being shown at the Studebaker
Theatre, Chicago, where it is selling out
at every performance. The Minneapolis
run is duplicating the Chicago run in
success. ..> - ~.
The prices range from twenty-five
cents to one dollar, with box seats
at a dollar and fifty cents. Mail orders

village on May 4, 1862, to Miss Caroline

and groom started for America, stopping
for brief time at Cleveland, Ohio, Then
they came directly to Brown county,
settling in farm III the township Of
Cottonwood. Their place was near
the old Winkelmann lime kiln, where
they remained until 1868, when Mr..
Heymann sold his farm and purchased
another in CORTLAND township. Mr..
and Mrs. Heymann had been in Brown

The program as outlined to the legis-

CANNON ONLY REPLY
TO ALLIED STAND

Berlin, Jan. 9O.-Although year
ago DR.. Dryander, court preacher.
pleaded for an hour of peace in the
services marking the kaiser's birth
day, this year his sermon was a fiery
defense of Germany's cause and a mill.
tant plea for Germany to steel herself
for the decisive battle which everyone
believes is coming.
In this changed spirit he reflected
the sentiment of the German people.
eve know" said he, speaking at the
special cathedral services commemorate
ing the birth of Germany's ruler, chat
before us is the decisive battle which
can be fought through only with the
greatest sacrifices. But in all cases
in the past God has helped us and God
will fight for us today through our
leaders and soldiers. We neither be-
gan nor wanted this war, neither the
kaiser nor the people. We hoped for
peace as the kaiser extended his peace
proposal, but with unheard of frivolty
and insults our enemies slapped the
back of the kaiser's extended hand of
peace.
ITO such enemies there is only one
voice, that of cannon. We continue
the war with clean conscience and
with trust in God that He will bring
us victory. God cannot-He will not
permit the German people to go
down."

Tripped on Grapevine.

On November 16, a Young man
named Kirk, of East Waterford,
went out hunting. Failing tore
turn in the evening his parents
became alarmed, and each day
following a search was made
without success until the 23rd
when his body was found in an
old field about two miles west of
Waterford, where it was seen he
had tripped on a grape vine and
when he fell his gun had fell so
as to be discharged, the load en-
tering his left side penetrating
the heart and coming out at the
right side.
The young man had a squirrel
on one shoulder and a hawk lying
just a little from one hand. The
leaves had also been set on fire
by the discharge of the gun and
the clothes were all burned from
his body.

Clothing Suggestions.

Because of the shortage of
wool, the enormous demand for
cotton in the manufacture of war
munitions and the scarcity of
factory labor, the present day
clothing problem is a serious one.
AS a result careful thought and
attention are required on the
homekeeper in dealing with this
question.
There has been an enormous
waste in clothing in this country
in the past. The chief reasons
for this are the frequent changes
the unwise selection of materials
and garments, the dependence
upon a poor quality of ready
made garments and the improper
care of clothing.
In order to reduce this waste
to a minimum the points to keep
in mind, according to Miss Jane
Newcomb, assistant in home
economics extension at the
Pennsylvania State College, are:
First-Avoid extremes in fash
ion; Second-Learn to know
quality and its economic value;
Third-Lear to recognize stan
dard materials and their reliabili-
ty; Fourth Make undergar.
ments and do other simple sewing
at home; Fifth-T Take good care
of all clothing.
Clothes should be studied as an
individual problem. One shoulC
know what is suitable from the
hygenic, artistic and economic
standpoint and then buy from
the standpoint of quality, rea
style and suitability rather thar
from the standpoint Of mere fash
ion.

Acreages For 1918.

Eestimates from crop reporters
in all the counties of the State
that the Pennsylvania farmer has
increased the acreage sown to
wheat slightly less than five per
cent. over the acreage represent
ed in the 1917 harvest and that
the rye acreage has been increas-
ed but Ia per cent, over this
year.
The farmers of this State had
been asked by the National
Government to increase the wheat
acreage IA per cent. and the rye
acreage Is per cent. but labor
and weather conditions have prac-
tically made it impossible for the
farmers to respond. In many
sections of the State corn re-
mained uncut until late in No
vember and in most instances
these fields would have been
sown to wheat if the soil could
have been prepared.
1t has been practically impossible
for the farmers to get wheat and
rye fields in shape on account of
the shortage of farm labor and
the unsettled weather conditions
of October in many sections of
the State. In some of tn e
central and northern counties
there were only a few days dur
ing the month that there was
not rain or snow. The farmers
are disposed to increase their
crops to the greatest extent but
it has been a physical impossible
ity.
The wheat acreage increase is
6S. .4S4 acres and the rye increase
3, 100 acres. A small proportion
of this ground may be plowec
under in the spring if there is
any severe winter freezing thai
seriously damages the wheat anc
rye which is in the ground. The
increases in acreage run from

fifty dollars a barrelin Chicago,

ing the Civil War when gold was
at big premium, was $43. This

hogs to sell, but it means that

but in the large wheat growing
counties the increase has been
slightly over four per cent.
State Agricultural Notes.

tits estimated that the total
alfalfa cpop for the State during
the past season was 1873, S49 tons
an average of 5.S tons being cut
to an acre.
Records show that there are
2S. 500 silos in use on farms of
Pennsylvania, an increase of
about $500 over last year.
Tioga, Susquehanna and Brad
ford counties lead with the larg-
est number of silos but farmers
in other sections of the State are
rapidly adopting silage methods.
Despite the large wheat acreage
Lancaster county farmers have
found it possible to make an in
crease of a per cent. or approx
mately 6,S0O acres Tor next year 8
crop.
The average production of to-
bacco to the acre was 1866
pounds as compared with 1910
pounds last year.
Estimates show that about rs
per cent. of normal grape crop
was grown in the State during
the year.
The average weight Of wheat
per bushel for the year was SO 5
pounds, while the average weight
of oats was 81 6 pounds, over a
pound heavier than last year and
above the ten year average.
The average yield of honey
per colony was 33 pounds as CON-
pared with 54 pounds last year.
