ARCTIC SUN GLARE
 HARMFUL TO EYES
Century Magazlnel

"In addition 10 the wind there is another pecuIiarity of the inland ice which adds 10 the difficulties to be encountered in this work. That is the extreme intensity of the sunlight, which can be realized only by those who have experienced it. During the summer months the sun shines as brightly there in clear weather as anywhere further south, and this con- tinuous brilliancy is intensified a hundred fold by the reflection from endless fields of glistering, sparkling snow, unrelieved by a single object, The strongest eyes cen stand such binding glare only few hours with out protection. We always wore heavy smoked glasses, and when in camp found it impossible to sleep without still further protecting our eyes by tying a narrow band of fur about them to exclude the light. Only when a storm is brewing does this intense light become subdued. At such times, however, the sky and snow take on a peculiar gray, opaque light. which is even more trying than the sunlight"

"Supposin' neighbor, you've been here, As have for many a year, want to jest drap back with you, And take a retrospective view, Of how this town has come to be A bustlin' city, fair to see, Where just a few short years ago, Ther' want no town at all; you know. Way back in Eighteen seventy -one, One day took my dog and gun, And shot jack rabbits all day long, Where now the busy people throng, A thousand houses all aroun' The happy homes of Feenix town! Ther' ain't no place, I'm here to state, More cityfied, and up to date. I used to think the sight was grand, The teams arrivin' overland, And bringin' folks from all the state, To see the west and try their fate. Some rode in ox-carts all the way, Who ride in autos. fine today. In fact most all who came to stay Are safe against the rainy day" But in the good old days gone by, When things were new and hope was
 high,
 We didn't care tinker,s durn, For things that now cause much con-
 eern.
 Each feller shouldered up his load, And cheerful, faced the desert road, And grit and patience such as hi3y It what made Feenix what she is! We had no grouch against the rich, Nor strikes and raisin' hell and sich; Each for his fortune made his bid, Nor envied what his neighbor did. And oh! the joy for one and all: At every round up in the Fall, Twas 'Howdy, Kate, and Hello, Bill, Come all and eat and drink your fill. Now, friend in all the wondrous west, The Baby State is far the best. We've got the water and the soil, And borin' now for gas and oil; Our mines and farms do more. by far, Than strategy. to win the war! Then I shook hands with honest Jack, And said, By ginger that's a fact.s

Entertainment and Scenery

If the picture patron is looking for entertainment coupled with wonderful scenic environment and the whole spiced with adventure, at the Hip today VIII be found such combination. Hon. ore Wiltse's novel, "The Heart of The Desert with Monroe Salisbury and Ruth Clifford, is the vehicle.
 Aside from the fact that it is one of the greatest desert pictures filmed this year, it has for its added charm the fact that Ruth Clifford, who plays the girl in this creation, was the well re- membered Belgian Maid in the ''Kai- ser" The chap who knocked the kaiser down also has a sparkling part in this latest western picture.
 The part of the Indian graduate, played by Monroe Salisbury, is said to be one of the greatest character cre- ations. The desert scenes and the won derful shots of the Indians and men of the desert are classics it is said.
 The regular News weekly will be fea- tured with this smart picture. The Heart of the Desert" will also be shown on Sunday as well and is followed by the record breaker, "Revelation,' or The Rose Bush of a Thousand Years"
