While most of us have been
| freezing and worrying about the
shortage of gas and the high cost
of coal, Constance Talmadge has
been making a picture in which
bathing suits and beach scenes hold
sway. Some people are always
lucky and it is no wonder that
girls go "moVie-mad" when they
hear about the pleasant life of a
film favorite.
Who Cares2" is the name of the
picture and there are two high
spots in it, display of surf cos
tunes and a cafe scene copied from
one of the most famous places in
America.
The beach scenes in Who
Cares?" are numerous and in them
Miss Talmadge introduces several
mOdish bathing costumes. Unlike
the average young woman who
makes one bathing suit do service
for a whole season, Miss Talmadge
in Who Cares?" has a different
suit for every dip in the surf.
But all of the scenes in Who
Cares?' were not made on the
beach and while the bathing suit
moments will undoubtedly get
fair share of attention, there is one

REQUESTS ALL TO
OBSERVE DAY FOR
WAR TORN POLAND

Governor Lowden in statement
issued today asks that the people
of Illinois regard next Sunday as
Polish day and through public
meeting and other ways show their
earnest wish that Poland may be
come a free and Independent and
law-abiding state. The governor
says:
In Poland. on Jan. 90, there
will be held an election of dele
gates to assemble in Warsaw and
frame a form of government for
the new nation.
This is a day of mighty import
not only to Poland but to 1.-THE
world. For a century and a quar-
ter the Polish people have been the
victims of military force imposed
from without. During all those
years, she has been what Belgium
has been during the great war The
partition of Poland was the great
est crime of the eighteenth century.
A proud people, with a noble his
tory, have waited all this time to
cSSfe again into their own. Many
Thousands of her children have
found refuge in America, and among
the foremost to spring to arms in
defense of civilization when our
country recently called were Am
orleans of Polish birth or Polish
descent We, therefore, have a SEN
timental interest in the fate of Pol
and. But, more important than all
else, Poland's geographical situa-
ton makes her future of interest to
all the world. Upon the one side,
she is threatened by the wave OF
anarchy rolling in from Russia,
and upon the other by the German
Empire. A free. strong. independ-
ent Poland would mean much for
the future peace of the world.
Therefore, from self-interest, too.
we are concerned about what Pol
and shall do. 1t would hearten and
strengthen the people. if the great
democracy of the new world were
to send to Poland words of en-
couragement and hope.
- hope, therefore, that our peo-
pie may regard Sunday. Jan. &c, as
Polish day, and through public
and in other ways. show |
their earnest wish that Poland may
become a free and Independent and !
law-abiding state. modelled not up |
on the Bolshevism she sees to the |
east nor the military despotism /
which has held her in its grip for !
more than a hundred years, but |
rather upon the American republic, I
which has furnished shelter to so
many of her children during the
century and a quarter of tragedy

At Br0tman's Ratio.

In her new play, Less Than this
Dust showing at Brotman's
Rialto. Mary Pickford has the role
of a little castaway of English
birth who has been reared among
natives of the lowest caste o:
India. Her father having become
a social derehct and having no
mother she is given Over to a ma
tive sword maker and here she
grows up and becomes one of the
people. The scenes are all laid in
India and England and are re
markably faithful pictures of both
lands in scenic sets of great
beauty and wondrous effect. The
East Indian environment IS espec-
tally interesting and picturesque
in that the splendid direction has
brought to the screen an unmis-
taxable atmosphere and under
standing of the lives and customs
of the British officers and the
lower coste.

DEBATERS LAUNCH
WORK AT COLLEGE

Debating work at Augustana col
Iege is now in full swing, with pros
poets for turning out two winning
teams this year brighter than ever.
Five veterans are back in school
and have alreas- been given places
on the teams, according to Profess
sor j. NJ. Page, debating coach, and
in addition there is an abundance
of promising new material to COM
plete the two teams and possibly
provide third.
Those named by Professor Page
as having made" the teams thus
far are Robert Olmsted, Eugene
Youngert, James Fitzpatrick, Luth-
er Kron and HUT Wilson. All
these men were on the winning 1918
teams that broke a link" and for
the first time in many years car
ried Augustana to first place in trl-
angular debates. The most prom
Using of the new candidates are
Raymond Carlson, Roy Johnson and
A Mattson. No goods turned out
for the tryouts, although the Ed
ward Everett. the girls debating so
ciety, has already chosen a team
for the inter-club debates. The
question which will be the subject
of the debates between COe, Mon
mouth and Augustana colleges
reads:
Resolved. That the Federal Gov
eminent Should Own. Control and
Operate All Railroads"
Both sides of the question will be
defended by each school The de
bates will take place the night of
April l. There is a possibility that
another debate between Augustana
and Gustavus Adolphus college will
be arranged
