that Hosiery of whatever kinds now wanted

chased now in order to save ones self from

The more we study our present Hosiery

That's because the Hosiery we are offering

great many items would now cost us, whole

that It be donated to the Museum Of

So education was sacrificed to art.
The good police department OF Port

a local paper one day last month car

was blazing outside the harbor. Fire

When the twenty-five hundred rail-

stations, and for while II looked as
though the latest picture by Douglas
Fairbanks, His Majesty the Ameri-

all outgoing trains.
Doug decided that his first produc-
ton to be distributed through the
United Artists Corporation was not
going to be held up by anything. So
he got in touch with an airplane COM
! pany, and asked if they had couple
of airtrucks to spare. He was told
that they had all the latest aerial in
| ventions, but the truck had not yet
been perfected.

athletic star. An hour later twelve
airplanes received the prints of the
new Fairbanks film, and glided off
towards San Francisco, in order that
they might reach the various theatres

The desire for films in the. neal

Tor the purpose Of taking mo-
r. ton pictures of rare animals
= whose habitat is in the fast
nesses of the Canadian Rockies. an
expedition which included Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Jr., started recently for
Banff, Alberta, on a six weeks trip
of exploration. Motion pictures Of
the animals photographed on the
Journey will be added to the film Ii
brary of the American Museum of
Natural History.
George H. Sherwood, acting direc-
tor Of the museum, said that be-
cause of restrictions which the Amer
icni. end Canadian Governments had
placed on killing of the rarer wild
animals, the only way of obtaining
specimens of these creatures was by
means of motion pictures.
''Tbe wood bison, in particular"
said Mr.. Sherwood, lis a rare type
of WHICH we have no specimen. This
expedition, which is going into an
UNEMPLOYED and unmapped region
south Of Banff, Alberta, hopes to get
molten pictures of this almost ex-
tinct animal. We are collecting a film
library of animal subjects, which we
plan to make an important part of
the museum work"
The expedition was conducted by
the Educational Department of the
Famous Players-Lasky Corporation.
In the party, besides Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Jr., were John Brodex,
mineralogist, who will conduct re-
searches into the mining possibilities
of the territory; Capt. Nathan Pearl,
big game hunter and sportsman, who
will have charge OF the expedition
while on the trail; J. o. Colt, a big
