FIRE SCENE At ROYAL TONIGHT

~
Seldom in the history of motion
picture photography has so startling
and vivid a reproduction of fire
scene occurred as in "The Hired Man.,
Charles Rays latest Paramount pic
ture at the Royal theatre tonight.
No pains were spared and an entire
house is burned to the ground, leaving
nothing but a chimney. Charles Ray,
as farm hand, performs deeds of
real heroism, having been actually Sc
verely burned during the filming of
Doris Lee, Gilbert Gordon, Charles
French and Lydia Knot contribute
their share to the enjoyment of the
picture.

THE WEST COAST ROUTE.
Tampa Tribune.)


Next Monday there will be held in
this city a meeting, the purpose of
which is to rearrange the routing of
west coast freight, and, later, the pas
senger traffic, with a view of giving
this section direct route to the north
and west.
The Tribune believes that too much
importance cannot be attached to the
meeting and bespeaks for the attend
ance men from every town and coun-
ty in this part of Florida.
The St. Petersburg Times started
the movement, in earnest, after it had
been hammered on for years by vari-
Gus papers Of the section, notably the
Taylor County Herald; and the Times
efforts seem about to bring forth
fruit. The movement was made at
this time because the people of this
section take the government admins
traitor of railroads at his word when
he declares that "the most direct rout-
ing and the shortest lines for traffic
shall be used for traffic during this
war period"
There is no doubt that the west
coast will profit by the readjustment
of its traffic to and from the section;
and that the profit will be great. If
the government is in earnest, and if it
means business in it's declaration that
+ it would move for the betterment of
conditions industrially and agricultur-
ally, as well as commercially through
out the country, then it must hear and
approve the plan of linking up the ex-
listing roads through the building of
short trackage of less than thirty
miles across country that presents
no engineering difficulties as an obsta-
Gle to the work.
The Fort Myers Press is intensely
interested in the meeting here Mon
DAY efnd rccrnv issue says.
Those who are expected to attend
the meeting include members of the
various city councils and boards of
county commissioners and representa-
tives of various commercial organiza-
lions which have joined in the plea,
the meeting representing more than
100000 or fully two thirds of the pop
ulation of Florida, thirty-four of the
fifty-four counties having passed the
resolution at the time the statement
was made. The proposed re-routing
will do much toward shortening the
rail haul, it being proposed to close
the thirty-mile gap of the Atlantic
Coast Line between Perry and Month
cello and a series of breaks in the
Seaboard between BrooksviHe and
Tallahassee, through Inverness, Arch
er and Perry, thus eliminating much
unnecessary delay in passenger and
freight service"
Tampa is more deeply interested in
this project than perhaps any other
city or town in the section of the state
that will benefit; and it promises to
do all it can in every way to further
the linking up of these lines. We will
welcome all men from every section
interested, and hope the attendance
here will of itself be a positive reason
for building the link.

RED CROSS NOTES

The Tarpon Springs chapter has
just been notified that their allotment
in surgical dressings for April is $50
five-yard rolls. This means that there
are only three weeks in which to make
these dressings and every effort must
be put forward to accomplish this
work. This chapter has previously
done more than the allotment and
they cannot afford to fall below in
this, the hardest task yet allotted to
them.

" I've q more or less complete sum
of the gains of the Nonpartisan
u'.s Vs. in the recent general election.
S sao was the first election in which
inlJ 1oague,took part outside of North
w which it carried in 1916.
SS-arvthing the League has won out
L ~ nj North Dakota is pure gain.
III are it's gains outside the
tate of its birth;
''r Decentralization of II senators
- "a house members in rural dis
'.a4s and an additional four senator's
VI 10 house members in Minneapolis
'nJ s Paul, with the cooperation of
'- .o.nized labor. All these farmer and
,,Sor legislators are pledged to the
III farmer-Iabor program. Election
= the clerk Of the supreme court.
rloction Of the farmer-labor candidate
~ congressman in the Duluth dis
.,ict Carss, who defeated Congress-
NON Miller, an enemy Of the League
md its program, The League lost
~ Minnesota governorship.
Montana-Election Of 25 members
# tbe legislature, a judge of the su-
r,emn court and a state railroad COM
missioner, all with the Endorsement of
Ae League. No other state officers
we're to be elected this year. The
League indorsed for the United States
senate Miss Rankin, present member
If congress, but she was defeated by
Senator Walsh.
IdahO-Election Of 20 members of
me legislature and the state treasur-
ar Senator Nugent, Democrat, and
Senator Borah, Republican, both hav-
hg the League Endorsement, were sue
esssful. Senator Nugent could not
i have been reelected in the Idaho Re-
publican landslide h8d he not had the
League Endorsement. The Leagues
candidate for governor on the Demo
4 cratic ticket was defeated as were the
rest Of the Democratic candidates for
Wlgress and state Office.
South DISQUALIFICATION of 20 men,
hK Of the legislature. All the Demo
critic candidates for state Office were
defeated by the League candidates,
Il WHO ran as independents, but the Re-
pbican candidate for governor and
u otter state Offices beat the League
Il Candidates by narrow margin.
4 Colorado and Nebraska Election of
N q large group Of League candidates
q for the legislature. The League did
not take part in the state and con-
n gessiOnal electiQns in these states,
\ but confined its work to the election
4 Of legislators in a few counties where
N he farmers were organized.
4 In none Of the states above reported
n Did the League have a foothoId prior
Il to the recent election. All the legis-
R0Fs and other candidates elected
are therefore pure gain for the farm
ss organization.

Lesson In Scientific
Complexion Renewing

Everyone has a beautiful skin I'M
derneath the one exposed to view.
Bear that In mind and II will be easier
to understand the correct principle In
acquiring a lovely complexion Nature
IS constantly shedding the top skin
in flaky particles like dandruff, only
much smaller in size. In abnormal
conditions, or in advancing age, these
particles are not shed as rapidly as
in robust youth The longer they re-
main the more soiled or faded they
become-thats the immediate cause Of
q bad complexion"
1t has been discovered that ordinary
mercolized wax. to be had at any
drug store, will absorb these worn
out particles. The absorption. while
Fastening Natures work, goes on
gradually enough to cause no incon-
Renience. In a week or two the trans
formation is complete. The fresh
healthy-hued, youthful underskin is
then wholly in evidence. You who are
not satisfied with your compilations
should get an ounce of mercoliZed wax
and try this treatment Use the wax
nightly, like cold cream, washing IL
off mornings.

NAVY MAN-POWER
TO Be DISCUSSED

Army and navy authorities expect
ed today to have a get-together con-
ference soon to discuss the man
power situation for the navy, in view
OF the order finally closing all army
and navy recruiting stations and end
ing voluntary enlistment except for
men above forty-five.
The navy is hampered because GER
tain experts 1t needs are unavailable
through the cloture OF enlistments.
While the War Department said to-
day that the whole volunteer system
is definitely at an end, it is believed
that provision will be made whereby
'inductions" of men in the draft for
special services can be accomplished
In other words. if a man is espe-
cially qualified for the quartermas-
ter service, or the ordnance branch, or
for navy purposes, it will be so ar
ranged that he can be "inducted"
therein. To that extent, 1t is assum-
ed, the voluntary system will obtain.
The War Industries Board is making
classification of essential industries.
Men in these will, for the most part,
be permitted to remain. The newspa-
per business, for instance, is listed as
one OF the essentials, but it will be
required Of the employer that he
demonstrate that any particular man
is essential to the business.
Certain industries more or less
nonessential directly to the war are
listed a. essential to the population.
The War Industries Board ANNOUNCE
ed it had appointed William NJ Ritter,
of West Virginia, to assist in the mat
ter OF determining industrial fur
loughs. The system has been worked
out whereby skilled men, though in
the draft, can be furloughed back to
their industries, where monthly re-
ports OF their service must be made.
The adiutant generals office has
Darragh de Lancy as its industrial
officer.

QUEST FOR ROOMS
TOCOVER DISTRICT

A canvass OF every house in, the
District soon will be undertaken by
the District housing committee In an
effort to get rooms for 500 or more
Government workers, who constantly
are coming to Washington
Government estimates are that
there are now 10000 war workers in
this city. This does not include 1900
army officers and an even larger num-
Der of enlisted men,. The housing sit
uation has grown steadily worse. and
Government work will be seriously
hampered unless rooms for the in
coming workers are found at once, 1t
is declared.
A number OF persons have Volun-
teered to open their homes to war
workers as the result OF an appeal
Issued yesterday by the District hous-
ing committee, and the committee
will redouble its efforts to find rooms
for the civilian army OF clerks.
wherever there Is q spare room
that Is not absolutely necessary for
the use of q private family, that room
should be listed with the District
housing committee" said e. s. Hege,
chairman Of the committee, today.
I'VE can do no more than appeal
to the patriotism of Washington citi-
Gems to open their homes at this time.
While our appeal is directed to all,
1t should he taken to heart more par
ticularly by the citizens with larger
houses. They are urged to get on a
war basis, to use fewer servants, and
to list their spare rooms with the
housing committee"
Persons having q room for rent to
war workers should communicate at
once with the District room renting
bureau, 1921 New York avenue north
west, stating the number Of rooms
available, the price. the location of the
house, and whether men or women are
desired.

Yanks to Chew Gum
While Chasing Foe
Huge Order Placed

The Yanks are going to have
gum to chew while they chase the
Huns back to Berlin.
The War Department today an
nounced that the quartermasters
corps has placed an order for
100000 packages of chewing
gum for the army.
1t has been found that on long
marches, where the troops are
unable to get sufficient drinking
water. chewing gum is very ef-
fective in relieving thirst One
regimental commander said that
$50 pounds OF chewing gum would
save hundreds OF gallons of water
when most needed.
