 Douglas Fairbanks has never won his audience in such manner as he has in this film. It is exceptionally good, with laugh ringing into every line, and just enough of the deep stuff to make the rest all comedy.

 Short shots and long shots of New York's great white way al the mystic hour of midnight lend an infinite charm to the general photography while several cameras must have been loaded on buck boards to shoot several novelty scenes. the nature of which have never before been seen even on the screen.

portance of the chemical industry, which, { he said, would be the basis of still greater developments and expansions in the fu- ture
 His address was filled with statistics covering production of cotton, fertilizers, iron. explosives chemicals and other items of the old and the new order of things in the south
 Of the part chemistry will play in the future developments, Dr. Little said:
 'The manufacture of fertilizers and the effective use of these artificial ma nures in the growing crops are obviously based on chemistry and controlled by the laboratory findings of works-chemists, the experiment stations and the bureau of chemistry"
 Stating that before the war 37, 100000 acres were planted to cotton in the south, Dr. Little says:
 Upon this vast expanse the south has annually raised for years an average of about 13,O00,000 bales of cotton. The 1919 crop is estimated at II ,000, 900 bales of staple, worth about S750 bale, with 5,000,000 tons of seed, valued at S7O ton, total increment to southern wealth of at least S2, ,OOO, 900, ,OOO.
 ''In no small proportion these values are due to chemistry. If they are attrib- uted to the war, we have only to reply that without chemistry the war could not have been fought at all, while in the ab- sence of guncotton, which is merely cot ton plus chemistry it could have only been fought at great disadvantage to our al- lies and ourselves"
 Cotton bleaching, which permits it's use . in fabrics of the finer sorts IS based pri- marily upon the discoveries of chemists, Dr. Little stated.
 '"The automobile" he continued, you may be surprised to learn, is a chemical product. It could not exist without the nlyIl-SpooO IOOl SlCtlS WHICH ldUIlCcaIS lCo parts and which had their origin in the laboratory, and further along he adds:
 You will again be surprised to learn that at least 2,000, 900 spindles are today engaged in the business of converting cot ton into automobile fabrics; 15O, 900 tires are consumed daily. Within one or two years the tire production will have in creased by 50 per cent, and spindles to the number of l, ,O0O,O 900 more in this one in dustry will call to the south for new sup plies"
 ''Cotton, Dr. Little says, fin it's puri- fled form is the type of that wonderful substance, cellulose, the structural basis of all plants, and thereby the greatest structural material in all the world

IN UPRoAR OVER BILL
IN LEGISLATURE
DIE TO JEROME ASPIRATIONS
contemplated Partitioning Costly and
Unnecessary, Declare People
Blame G. o. P. Chairman

Three counties in Idaho are i'll an up
,osr over the county division bill which
.roates new county out of parts of
Lincoln. Gooding and Minidoka coun-
ties and which was reported favorably
out Of the committee on county lines and
boundaries in the state senate.
Close Investigation discloses the fact
that sentiment in Minidoka county is
easily 95 per cent against the move. In
Lincoln county, outside Of Jerome and
tbe territory Immediately contiguous,
and which would be benefited by the
creation of county seat at Jerome, the
Deople are against the move, and in
Cooling county the people are up in
arms in protest.
A mass meeting was held at Wen
dell, in Gooding county, at which it
was unanimously decided to send dele
CATION to Boise to protest the move.
Another mass meeting was held at
Gooding. where the same action was
taken. In Minidoka, county west end
farmers to the number Of seventy sent
kilograms of protest to the lawmakers
in Boise and also resolved to send
delegation to fight the move. In Rup-
ert the same action was taken.
John Thomas, chairman of the Repub-
Hcan state central committee, is work
ing hard in favor of the bill. He is
the controlling spirit in a bank at Jero-
me and it is freely claimed by oppon
pnts of the bill that his interest in the
movement is solely pecuniary desire
to benefit his holdings at Jerome.
Senator Heis is aiding the homas pro
paganda
Opponents of the bill in Lincoln,
GoOding and Minidoka counties argue
that there is no possible excuse for the
bill, except to make jerome a county |
seat. They state that the bill takes
from Mipidoka county some 100000 /
of assessed valuation and that the bond
ed Indebtedness and outstanding war
rants of the county, according to the
last annual statement, is $155, 553.35.
A part of that indebtedness, in fact,
is the cost of building two county court
house-those Lincoln and MinidOka
counties If Jerome county is created
third courthouse will have TO be built
At jerome. The argument is also made
hat the cost of transcribing the records
when Minidoka county was created was
n the neighbOrhood of $4,000 and that
mder this proposal records will have to

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

farthest .nortb?--U. @. c.
A. There Is an American school at
Point Barrow, the point OF Alaska
which projects farthest into the Arc
tie. The pupils are Eskimos and the
teacher Is from the states. One
steamer a year reaches Point Bar
row. At other times access IL pos
sible only by long journeys by dog
sled.
o. Can crippies move more freely
In the water than elsewhere?--T. s..
A. The specific gravity Of water
ana The human body Is virtually the
same. A body in the water Is sup
ported by equal pressure at all points
Il is more likely to be at ease than
under other circumstances. II Is
therefore more likely that u may
move without pain. So cripples are
often given their exercise In the
