TAKE NOTICE OF UNBEATABLE
WEEKLY PICTURE PROGRAM

Dear Sir or Madam:
Everybody loves William Farnum.
That fact has given him his immense
popularity on the screen and placed
him above all other male stars as the
greatest favorite of today.
His latest William Fox subject,
"The Heart of a Lion" is going to be
shown at the American Theatre to-
night. You know already of Mr.. Far
NUNS fine work in such subjects as
"A Tale of Two Cities" and THE Con-
queror." Perhaps you do not know
that his greatest successes have been
in the "blue-shirt" type of part. 1t
was such a role he played in when
a Man Sees Red" that vibrant story
of the sea which has caused a stir
throughout the United States.
l am telling you about these previ-
ons Farnum hits" because l want to
interest you in his newest venture.
THE Heart of Lion" is undoubtedly
one of the great photodramas of the
decade. In it William Farnum plays
one of his beloved "blue-shirt' char
acters-a man of strength and daring,
who is robbed of the girl he loves by
his own brother. The revenge which
he takes on his brother is truly Far
numesque. | won't give the secret
away. You must see the picture to
appreciate it.
The Heart of a Lion" is a picturi-
Zation of Ralph Connor's novel, "The
Doctor" You have surely read this
great book by great author. If you
have not, you must have read his
BLACK Rock" or THE Man from Glen
garry" You know the action which
Ralph Connor puts into his works.
Imagine William Farnum interpreting
this action!
Hoping to have the pleasure of
your patronage, l am,
Very truly.

FIRST CASE OF DISL0YALTY
NEARLY ENDS DISASTR0USLY

Peter Jacobson. who says he is an
irishman but looks like a German,
arrived in Winnemucca Saturday. Too
much celebration and display of real
patriotism got on his nerves and to
relieve them he opened a TRADE
against the President, the country and
the people of the United States. He
was in a saloon at the time and. it is
said. he only got so far as to say,
Any American who joins the army is
--!" when his hearers could
keep hands off no longer. 1t took no
time at all to get rope over his neck
and start for a place to complete the
affair. But on the way they met
Policeman Spenner and he took the
man to Jail.
The preliminary hearing, set for
this morning, was waived, and the
man was taken before United States
Commissioner L. o. Hawkins. where.
ii is said, he professed insanity. The
Federal department of justice will un-
doubtedly handle the case. This is
the first instance of like nature yet
brought to light in this city.

PARADISE PEOPLE
PROVE PATRIOTISM

Mrs. X. Fl. Schwartz, who was very
seriously i'll last week, is now able TO
be up and around. Saturday she was
able to sit out of doors and boss
the job of garden planting. She will
also resume her knitting. Since re-
turning home, less than a month ago
Mrs. Schwartz has knit a full set, con-
sisting of muffler wristlets, socks,
sweater and helmet, for the Red
Cross. She was beginning her second
pair of socks when taken i'll. When il
comes to raising gardens or knitting,
Mrs. Schwartz is willing to compete
with anyone.
Little Opal Harvey, who was on the
sick list last week, is much better.
Irwin Case and j. w. Baker of the
Case Company. accompanied by
Arnold Schwartz, were Winnemucca
visitors Saturday. Arnold made a
hasty trip to relieve an aching tooth

vote at the school election.
In compliance with the state proc
lamation, all business houses of Para
disc were closed Saturday and numer-
Gus small boys with nickels to spend
for gum hung around the store en-
trance in vain. Some larger boys
who needed "gas" for their contem-
plated hunting trip might have hung
around in vain had not a fellow mo-
torist taken pity on them to the ex-
tent of few gallons.
Our genial Dr. Seaton is busily en-
gagged putting in his garden. When
he is not answering professional calls
he can be seen spading, hoeing or
STOPPING to drop in the seed. He says
there is no sense for anyone, with d
plot of ground, going hungry this
summer. He means to prove it, too.

Play Fair with the Child

/ Thousands of school ch ildren
throughout America are being en-.
eouraged to save their pennies and
put them into War Savings Stamps.
And to their eternal credit let it be
Known that they are responding cheer
fully.
They are foregoing many of the
little pleasures they have been accus-
toned to enjoy. Licorice drops are
few and far between. Cinnamon loz-
enges are things of the past and
chewing gum is worked overtime.
Moving pictures are taboo
For the plant child mind can be
swayed easily by argument The
kiddies accept as gospel. in most cases,
whatever the parent tells them.
But what are you doing to hold up
your end of the responsibility, Mr.
Head-of-the-house? Are you practic
ing any of the self denials you are
encouraging in your little ones?
Don't be a piker.
Play fair with the child. Cut out
some of your own extravagances and
begin saving up for the next Liberty
Loan campaign. It's coming along
soon.
