ance runner, football player, or any

lance runner, football player, or any
athlete. The grace of the dancer,
which appears so easy and u%nstudied
is an art, as a matter of fact, which
must be acquired only after long and
arduous practice. 1t is a matter of
training every muscle with the Ut
most care and guarding with vigil
lance against the time when the body
shall lose it's vigor and the muscles
fail to respond to the call of the will.
"Often the dancer is pictured by the
average girl as departing from the
theater and playing the fascinating
central figure in gay mignight lobster
parties, which probably break up at
dawn or Whereabouts. This is as great
a fallacy as many of the other theo-
ries, however, for we not only follow
a very strict and limited diet, but we
must by all means be assured of plen-

injurious to the appearance and the
muscles as lack of sleep!

OLD WIVES FOR NEW"

One of the most remarkable pic
lures of contemporaneous American
life, embracing the divorce question
and the more intimate phases of
marital relations, is "Old Wives for
New" produced by Cecil B. De Mile,
from the novel by David Graham
Phillips, with the scenario by Jeanne
Macpherson. 1t is an Aircraft pic
ture and will be shown at the Or
pheum theater next Sunday and Mon
day.
This is in every way a superlative
motion picture offering, one that can
not fail of it's appeal because of the
vital theme and the mastery manner
in which it has been handled. Brief
ly, it takes up the lives of a man and
woma who marry young in the heat
of youthful passion and who rue it
later when the woman becomes SLOW
emily and obese, while the man gains
rather than loses in every way.
They are wealthy, but this can not
stay the march of events and in the
end it results in divorce. Another
woman, really noble in all her in

s%tincts, enters the life of the man,
nurses him back to life when he is
injured to the point of death in a
railway accident, and to save whom
he takes up with another woman for
whom he feels no love.
In the end she finds him and COM
pels him to accept her, despite that,
in his desire to save her reputation,
he tries to resist the love that will
not be denied. The lives of others
enter into the story, which searches
the very souls of the characters in
volved, keenly, incisively, and betrays
the unrest that gnaws at the heart
Of American social conditions, like a
worn at the bud.
Wonderful work has been done in

NEW WHEAT FLOUR RULES
In Effect In Montana on and After
September I, 1918.
A Summary Issued Under the Al.
thority of Alfred Atkinson, United
States Food Administrator in Montana.

During the coming winter the American people, to provide ample food
for the United States and the allied nations, will use 20 per cent substitutes
with their wheat.
After September ], 1918, milers will begin the manufacture of a "victory
Mixed Flour" which will contain so per cent pure wheat flour and 20 per
cent Of either corr flour O barley flour. This mixed flour will be offered
for sale in Montana within a short time.
Retailers after September l and until the e mixed flours are upon
the market, will be allowed to sell standard wheat flour o n the condition that
70 per cnt of con flour, corr neal or barley flour is sold att the same time.
This means that every sale of standard wheat flour must be in the proper
ton Of one pound of substitutes with each four pounds of wheat flour. No
other substitutes than those just named will be allowed in such combination
sales. The "fftyffty" rule is rescinded.
The restriction O the amount of wheat flour to be purchased at
any one time and the restriction IN the amount Of flour to be used each
month, are both removed. American people are asked, however, to continue
to practice economy in food and to carea against any slightest waste.
Pure rye flour may be sold IS a substitute in mixed fours OF in
combination sales O n the basis of two pounds of rye to three pounds Of
wheat flour.
Bakers are no longer held to the consumption rate of 70 per cent
based on the previous year, but are required to use 20 per cent substitutes
in all bakery products except crackers.
The Food Administration relies upon the voluntary action of the Ameri-
ca people to mi 20 per cent substitutes in the home bread. Where indi-
vduals have sometimes failed to cooperate, the body of the American
people has more than fulfilled every request Of the federal Food Admins
tration.
The rules ire thus made milder and more simple. in order that the pos,
sbtty of more stringent rules next spring may be avoided by the continuing
cooperation of 0ur patriots.

slav M. Yovanovitch Of the University
o. Belgrade and representative of the

made public today a memorandum pre-
scented to the Serbian LEGATION in
London by the Serbian Parliamentary
Deputy, T. Katslervitch, which in part,
says:

These internments are wholesale mas

LIKELIHOOD OF JAPS GOING INTO
SIBERIA NOT SERIOUSLY con-
SIDERED BECAUSE THEY ARE
POORLY EQUIPPED.

WASHINGTON, April "A high
Japanese authority stated today that
the Jaranese government, more than
once approached by the Entente Pow
ers on the question of the possible
despatching of a Japanese army to Eu-
rope, had been obliged to reply mega,
lively, owing to the country's unpre
paredness to engage in conflict on Eu,
ropean territory.
Japan was last sounded on the sub
iect at the Paris Inter-Allied Confer
ence attended by Col. E. NJ. House, rep
resenting the United States, the
French delegates introducing the sub
ject Although they had received no
instructions from Toxic, the Japanese
Representatives submitted a statement
outlining the obstacles to such and en-
terprise, and Col House concurred
in the Japanese view.
The subject of compensation for
Japan was never suggested, either by
Japan or by the Allied government,
it was authoritively declared, and in
considering the subject in the first
months of the war, when 1t was first
raised, the decision of the Japanese
government was based upon purely
practical considerations relating to
transport and supplies.
Contrary to the general opinion, it
was stated that the Japaneses army
was not completely furnished with
modern equipment. 1t is short of ev-
cry adjunct of a modern army, from
gas masks to tanks, and possesses a
very small number of aeroplanes
Even if ships were available for carry,
ing a million japanese troops to the
Balkans or to France, they would lack
the equipment to make them efficient.
For the same reason it would be im>
pissible for Japan to send an army
across Siberia to European Russia,
authority declared The enormous re-
sources of the United States, he stated,
bad made it possible for this country
to rush its warlike preparations on
the most gigantic scale conceivable,
but Japan lacks both the wealth
and the resources and therefore can
only develop her army normally.
The military expedition Japan would
have sent to Siberia except for the dis,
approval of the United States, it was
pointed out, was to be police rather
than fighting force, although sooner
or later it might have had to confront
German troops. The nation normally,
however, it was asserted, would i'm
prove its army and is now adding to
it as rapidly as possible the modern
equipment which it lacks.
