TIE RED LANTERN
 COST HALF MILLION

The expenditure of nearly half q million dollars costumes worth a king $ ransom and the services of 1900 per sons, from director, scenario writers and art designers to an ensemble that embodied d small army in size, rep resent but a part of the tremendous outlay in money, time and effort given
 by Richard A Rowland and Maxwell
 Karger to the production of The Red

 The Red Lantern" is a work of art destined to advance the standards of
 motion picture making by 25 years. It is truly colossal when it is judged by the combination of the supreme ar tistry of it's brilliant star and by the sumptuous environment provided for her and her supporting cast. It has l the added value of being based upon l one of the most talked-of novels of l the decade, The Red Lantern" TO- nance of the ancient city of Pekin i from the pen of Edith Wherry, and l published by BOdley Head.
 ! The total cost of producing "The Red i Lantern" was $400, 900. The time re- quired to make it was five months, one i week and four days; four months and 1 two weeks to actual production and ] three weeks and four days to elaborate research work carried out by June | Mathis and Albert Capellani, who made ! the screen adaptation and scenario ot 1 Edith Wherry's popular novel in order 1 to insure absolute acAlracy in the matter of Chinese life and customs

In the campaign. They knew and
loved Roosevelt as a fighter who never

call. Many Of the men knew the late
leader Of the Rough Riders personally

INTENSIVE CAMPAIGN
 AGAINST TUBERCULOSIS


 Little Rock, Oct. 27.-An intensive campaign is to be conducted in Ar kansas against tuberculosis, by the Arkansas Public Health Association. It IS. recognized that the dreaded white plague is preventible disease, and that many thousands of lives can be saved by the proper methods of sanitation, segregation, and treat ment.
 The association seeks to raise S150,00O for this purpose by the sale of Red Cross Christmas seals, with which the public has been familiar for years.
 The campaign will begin Nov. 12, and the organization for it is almost perfected in the various counties. With the proceeds of the sale of seals, campaign of intensive educational work will be undertaken in the state, and local associations will be formed for the establishment of clinics and visiting nurse work. Approximately 90 per cent of the money raised in the campaign will be spent in Arkansas. According to a statement by the State Health Department there are three thousand deaths, on an average, from tuberculosis in the state of Ar kansas alone. The disease annually claims 16O,OOO people in the United States. It is really more destructive of life than war. There was a total of 6,500,0O0 men killed by the Great War, and during the same period, there were 8,00O,0OO killed by tuber- Iculosis.
 The state sanitarium at Bonneville has been a great saving institution, and there is feeling over the state among those who know that it should be enlarged and it's field of service extended. It was established in the first place largely as an experiment, except by those who knew it's possi- bilities, and it has proven one of the best institutions under the direction of the state.
