Three-Gun Man Now
Appears On Screen

The 'two-gun man. of the bad,
bad west must take a back seat, be
cause the ''three-gun man has made
his appearance. In the old shooting
days any man, outlaw or otherwise,
who could operate two siA-shooters
simultaneously WIS regarded with
considerable respect, and he lived
longer than th, fellow who could
shoot accurately only with Que hand.
Tom Mix, the William + TX film
star, was two-gun man when he
was a Texas ranger and cowboy, and
his ability to shoot with Do,h hands
got him out of some very tight holes.
1t was this ability. 100, which helped
him to wipe out the Shont3 gang of
outlaws on the Pecos river in New
Mexico a few years ago. Now Mix,
who for sometime has been engaged
in thrilling motion picture audien-
ces by his daring horsemanship ana
athletic feats, has developed into a
'three-sun man.
In Hell Roarin' Reform" Will
liam Fox production, which will be
shown for the last time at the Grand
Opera House tonight, Mix routs
band of outlaws by operating two six
shooters and a rifle simultaneously.
This is the first time, it is declared,
that this remarkable feat has been
accomplished.--Adv

PUSH STATE ROAD WORK

Governor Harrington Yesterday
had a conference with Roads Chair
man Zouck, and arrangements were
made to push roads work through
out the State this summer with ali
possible speed The Governor and
Chairman Zouck believe that the
State should do as much roads work
as possible, not only because the war
prevented the construction Of num-
Der of very neces roads, but in
order to give EN- lioyment to men
lacking work owing to discharge
from the army or navy or to the shut
down of munitions plants and other
war industries.
Within few days Chairman Zouck
is expected to make public a state
ment, showing exactly what money is
available for roads work this year,
and where it may be expended. The
State has large sum in its treasury
er large sum for maintenance. 1t
also has construction fund to be
used in connection with construction
by the counties under the State Aid
law, and another fund which has
come from the division Of the FEEDER
al appropriation for roads
In connection with the roads work
the Governor and Mr.. Zouck are fol-
lowing closely the preliminary steps
to starting the AnnapolisC Claiborne
ferry. They resard this as part of
the State roads system, inasmuch as
it will link the systems of the West
ern and Eastern Shores, ana will be
maintained to the extent of $4,000
annually out of the roads funds.
They are assured by those having
charge of putting the boat into con-
dition and building the wharf at
Claiborne that the ferry will be in
operation on May l.

FIRE FIGHTERS AND
 WOODEN SHINGLES

T think I am city broke," said Sam uel Gompers, but have never recovered my small boy love of watching the fire department answering call. Now, confess, can never get the same sensa- ton from seeing the motors go by as came to me when l saw the horses rac- ing wildly through the streets
 T know of no cry which is so alarm ing as is that of the cry of fire at night in small village where there is no paid or volunteer department but where every able bodied mari and boy is expected to turn out and join the bucket brlgaoe.
 I have never gotten such excitement even in the midst of great city conflagra- tions.
 Saturday morning I looked out of The Age-Heraid building as the engines passed and seeing smoke issuing from a near by house I strolled up to the cor ner of Sixth avenue and Twenty-sec- ond street to watch the blaze which was bursting from the roof AS no one IS eH- pected to help I took my stand with crowd of curious onlookers which filled the adjacent streets and sidewalks.
 "About a dozen firemen were on the top of the house tearing off shingles while two men were playing small nose from the cneInlcdl enSlHOo poio"' ~ remarkable how treacherous fire IS when it gets in under the rafters or shingled house. If it had not been TOT the smoke and the blaze you would nave thought that the firemen were a puhcn of workmen tearing away the old snln- lgles to reshingle the house.
 q could readily see what peril snln- gle roofs within the fire limits are, TOT after every vestige of blaze was torn out or wetted down, after a Dit tnltl cr;sn of smoke would curl itself up som:
 where else, and the fight would have | to be started over again. l know nov
 why so much of Mobile and Atlanta was wiped out The blame is at the door o'
 wooden shingles"
