Alice Joyce in "Everybody's Girl" at
the Garden.


the Garden.
There IS plenty of action in the pic
ture, albeit it is love story that runs
almost true to form Miss Joyce is not
much given to stunts, but she does
one in this picture that would delight
Bill Duncan of serial fame. She is
trapped on the upper deck of a plea
sure steamship by a fire sweeping
from stem to stern and she leaps into
the water, to be promptly recued.
That is a real thrill, as is the entire
scene with it's panic stricken humid
reds fighting for a chance to drown.
Another tense scene is when a gun
man. after a street battle. seeks re-
fuge in her room. Terrified at first
she sees the man IS not all bad. She
hides his gun in her work basket, and
when the police break in she assures
them he IS her brother, Bill. The cops
know better. but the girls lovliness
and appeal saves Bill,
Miss Joyce IS Florence. who trims
hats and lives in a furnihed room in
Brick Dust Row. The owner sublets
the parIors and she has to meet her
men friends in the parks or on the
street corners or anywhere. Hence
her nickname, "Fsverybody's Girl
She plays no favorltes. Trusts her
male friends until they show a yellow
streak and meets most OF them only
once.

found the bolsheviki, if not a torch bearer of civilization, and an exponent of law and order, certainly not as bad as he has been painted. Mir. Francis charges that Mr. Robins was persona grata to the bolsheviki, who showed him the greatest consideration. Per haps these courtesies had something to do with warping MT. Robins judg- ment.
 That a man who is an American citizen and stood high in the confi- dence of such an organization as the Red Cross should have fallen under the influence of band of anarchistic cut throats is strange indeed. MT. Robins will find, if he has not already done SO, that the bolsheviki are not misunder- stood in this country. Neither have they been misrepresented. In all the conflicting testimony that has been given regarding conditions in Russia, one point seems to be fairly we'll es- tablished, and that Is that the bulk of the Russian people do not favor the bolsheviki.

AS THEY FARmIN FRANCE

From te New York World.
 The eyes of many American soldiers have been opened to new opportunities after observing the methods of the small French farmer. The lessons in which they have made a beginning during their stay abroad should be of lasting bene- fit to the communities to which they | return.
 At first glance the American farmers boy instinctively may yield to the temp, tation to look with disdain upon the l small plots of ground titled by the peas ant of the Old World and what appears the primitive habits of the people. He was accustomed to a country where things are done on a big scale, whera l farms are measured by quarter sections and are equipped with all kinds or modern machinery. But in France he tensive cultivation of which the advan- tages come to him as 8 revelation. The slow, hard-working people whom at first l he regarded as nonprogressve and ignor- ant have carried the industry of farm | ing to a stage of scientific management 1 that fills him with amazement. The tiny piece of land that passes from generation | to generation as family heritage IS worked like garden to the limit of pro duction, kept in a constant state of i high fertility and made to yield adequate returns for the patient labor and skill expended upon it.
 This is as unlike as can be the plan upon which American agriculture has
 | been practced. With boundless areas of cheap, fertile land within reach, American farmers drifted in the other di-
 rection. They have been wasteful and l improvident and have exhausted the soil of their holdings where self-interest re- quired them to prepare for the future Only slowly, with the help of the gov I ernment and state agricultural schools have they been coming to the know ledge that they have taken the wrong track Under the French system, of cul' tivation there would never have been thousands of abandoned farms through out the east which stand as monuments to the thrftlessness of former owners. AS the soldiers come back from France, more and more of them will bring home this message.

 "The King of the Dahomeys is
 tribal deity. He controls the lives and property of his subjects. Formerly he was regarded as more ethereal than human; he was believed to require neither food nor sleep. He strengthened that impression by having all food served to him in solitude. and hearing l petitions from behind a screen. Con
 sultation with his ministers was car ried on through his wives, who wers state dignitaries. Genuine Amazons
 formed his bodyguard and these war rior women were reputed to be as fear less and brave as those of Greek myth ology, and were more cruel.
 eonly sons of the Dada. or Queen,
 were regarded as heirs From among the Amazons the sovereign selected other wives. but all except the favored few were celbates. The King was considered the father of all his sub- isets.
 "The belsheviki are doing nothing new in their reported arrangement for interchange of infants among the va- rious mothers of the community nur- series set up by the soviet. In Dahe- mey children are taken from their mothers at an early age and given to other families. so they might form no ties that would conflict with their ai- legiaHce to the King.
 "Any object blessed by the Dahomey f, ,iests becomes a fetieh, Snakes were held in special esteem. Formerly chill dren were regularly sacrificed and hd- man beings roasted for food. Tribal dances were amazingly intricate, sene lasting ss hours. Sc imbued were the Iahomeys with belief in immortality that they readily volunteered for sac rifice and the wives of Dahemey, lika those of India, often chose to die " req
 their husbands did.
 "Togoland's area Is about equal to that of Maine. Two northern towns, Yendi and sansane Mangu, lie aiong the caravan route frem Ashanti to the Niger region.
 "Germany edged into the Slave Coast because. in 1884. the narrow portior slill ruled by the King of Togo was the only port from Gambia to ths Niger not controlled by some civilized power. Bremen merchants had sta lions there. So the uefmans persuad ed the Togo ruler to place Tagolani under the suzerainty of Germany. Sub sequeRtly the Germans made claims to inland territory which brought boundary disputes with France and Great Britain until the frontiers were
 fixed in 1899.

| Washington, March g. (special) Concerning Togoland, one of the ear l Hest and richest of German colonies, whose disposition is being considered by the peace conference. the National | Geographic society has issued the fol- I lowing bulletin:
 'Tosoland is shaped like a hogshead, with s2-miie base resting on ths Gulf of Guinea. it's sides swelling 10
 more than three times that width. l-crowding the British Gold Coast pos sessions to the west, French Dahemey on the east. and it's narrow top taper ing into the Niger region. Germany annexed Tegoland in 1884, the year she launched upon her colo nial expansion with the acquisition also of New Guinea and the Bismarck archipelago. Fogoland was the first colony to dispense with the imperial subsidy,
 Along the seacoast Togoland's soil Is rich and sandy, its climate warm and moist. The hinterland Is higher, wooded and drier, but seldom arid, Thus the land is adapted to a wide vas riety of products. among which the growing of coeoanuts. corn, rice, to- haeee and coffee already has been high ly successful The exports include eon- siderable quantities of ivory, kernels cepra, palm oil and rubber. "This colony affords a commentary upon Germany's application of bureau- cratic methods to her possessions,
 Despite heavy German immigration to the United States and South America. and despite her efforts to divert this flow to her colonies, only about 300 Germans were to be found among the million natives of Tegeland in 1910, Nest of the 300 are engaged in gov
 ernment service. either in the coast cities of Lome, made-to-order town
 which Germany planted on the site of
 fishing village, and Little Pope. or
 the inland government stations at Mis-
 ahohe or Bismarekburg.

 native chiefs, especially the Dahomeys,

 human beings for rum and trinkets.
 Tribal leaders made forays to supply

MIR. BORGLUM,s "LINCOLN"

From, the New York Herald.
 Mr. Gutzon Borglum Is one of num- her of American sculptors who have specialized, so to speak, on Abraham Tinoeln. The latest portrait of the emaneipator done by him is now on ex- hihition in this city. It does not differ in any essential manner from the head in the capitol at Washington by the same sculptor.
 There has been much squabblinH or fate in art and political circles over the question of how the great civil war President should be treated by artists. Should he be idealized or not? should he be made graceful or awkward or even should he be represented as well dressed or the opposite? And so on.
 The great Gilbert Stuart, when he painted Washington, produced In ono of the portraits of the first President an idealized head that was unlike the sitter. Yet it was selected by the au- thorities as the proper one to put on stamps and bank bills. This ideali2eh but quite false representation of the founder Is the one by when hc is known all over the world.
 MT. Borglum's bust is supposed 1o show Lincoln as he was ip 1860 hnt at that time the future head of the nation was only 5l. Yet here IS the face of a man of at least 70. The qqes- ton arises, Was the sculptor justified in anticipating the sorrows and trials that in later years furrewsd the fea- lures of the man who lost his life in saving the union?
 How should Lincoln be shown-as the late Charles Francis Adams saw him in the flesh and described him in his wonderful "reminiscences or &s the fantastic and idealistic artists lm- agine him? The answer may be ieft to the controbersalists.

Great Interest
 In Roads Convention


 TN the earlier days of the good U roads movement conventions for promoting highway improvement were not always taken seriously. |"Whereases" and resolutions" did not seem to bring practical results; but after all, educational work of far reaching benefit was being accom- lplished.
 Today the public attitude toward good roads discussion is altogether responsive, and it counts. There is real achievement and the annual meeting of the United States Good Roads association and the Bankhead highway commission combined, to be lheld at Mineral Wells, Tex, in April, will be exceptionally important. Questions of vital interest will be considered and nearly every southern state will be represented by it's gov ernor and by road engineers and high way commissions.
 The south realizes as never before the value of paved roads. And as an outcome of the Mineral Wells meet thousands of miles of motor truck highway will be under construction before the end of the year 1919.
