Foss Have "siIence Zones"

Fog bells and buoys are frequently
ineffective, because Of the zones Of
silence" prevalent in fog banks. Ere
uuently these zones not only retard q
sound but stop it entirely. In the
same bank of fog there will be q long
lane through which sound will carry
clearly. The result is that one ship
may hear another that is far OF and
have no hint Of q third that is close
at hand.-People's Home Journal.

Mrs. H. A. Pike, postmistress at
TyndalI, received the sad news on the
l4th of February that her son, Still
mar Pike, had died of pneumonia at
DeLouza. France. This is a hard
blow to Mrs. Pike, as she had not
heard that he was sick, and was look
ing forward to the return of her son
in a short time. Stillman was born
in Tyndall on November 26, 1896,
and with the exception Of eighteen
months spent on a homestead In Ly-
man county with his parents, had liv-
ed in Tyndall all his life. He grad
uated from the Tyndall high school in
1915, and the following fall entered
M%orningside College at Sioux City.
After the death of his father, who
was editor of the Tyndall Register,
his mother continued the publication
of the paper, and owing to her i'll
health Stillman was forced to give up
his college work, and returned home
to take the business management of
the paper, which he continued very
successfully until he entered the SER
vice of his country. In the spring of
1917, with the first call for troops,
Stillman responded as a volunteer,
and on July s., 1917, he went to Par
ker as one of the boys of Co. D. Sep
TENDER % the South Dakota regiment
was taken to Camp Greene, N. c.,
where Co. D was broken up, and he
was assigned, with many others, to
Battery E, l47th Field Artillery, his
position being in the signal corps.
The regiment left for France on Jan
uary IL, 1918 where they were in
training for five months He entered
the trenches the first of July, his
first battle being at Chateau Thierry,
on July Bird, and from that time until
November 9Th he was constantly at
the front, fighting on four different
fronts, when his regiment was sent
back to a rest camp. and was there at
the time the armistice was signed
After passing through four months Of
intensive fighting and escaping with
out injury, with 8 consciousness that
he had none hi full duty as a loyal
citizen. aad with the visions of home
and a happy reunion with his mother
and other home friends before him. it
is sad indeed that he should have to
pay the supreme sacrifice on a bed of
sickness. But the sacrifice of our
worthy young men should impress
upon the mind of every citizen the
value of the liberties that we enjoy.
and the obligation that we owe to the
bows who haze made such sacrifices in
our behalf. Their sacrifice should be
an inspiration to better citizenship,
and we should see that their lives
have not been given in vain.

The announcement that Marjorie
Daw, for several years leading lady
for Douglas Fairbanks, had signed
a long term contract with Marshall
Neilan has caused much comment
in film circles. 1t was believed that
Miss Daw and the dynamic Doug"
were professionally inseparable
During the past two years Marjorie
has played the leading role in
practically every one OF the Fair
banks productions.
Miss Daw, who is but seventeen
years old, first came into promin-
ence through her brilliant work in
the Cecil de Mile productions. She
is really Geraldine Farrar's protege
and played with her in Joan, the
Woman" and THE Jaguar's
Claws" Following these she at
tracted the attention of Mary Pick
ford and appeared in a number Of
productions with that star, notably
"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm"
1t was then that Miss Daw signed
with the Fairbanks company, dur
ing which engagement she appeared
to great advantage in such produc-
tions as HE Comes Up Smiling"
'Mr. Knickerbocker Buckaroo." At
the present time Miss Daw is play
ing opposite Mr.. Fairbanks in his
latest picture.
Commenting upon the move she
made in changing her allegiance
Miss Daw said she believed that
under Mr.. Neilan she would have
better opportunities to advance to
that goal of every ambitious &C
tress, stardom.
According 10 Miss Daw there is
in her opinion no director more
capable of bringing out the best
there is in an actor or actress than
Mr.. Neilan.
To whom it may concern: There's
an actor in the Rex Beach picture,
THE Girl From Outside" who an
swers to the name of Bull Durham!

AS to food in Italy, Harper says,
he believes there is more in Italy
than i'll Moline, although prices are
very high in that country. He was
in Genoa during one of the worst
Italian food riots, but, he says, he
felt as safe as though he were in
He was treated with the

He regards his work there as the
greatest experience of his life. He

When we heard an enthusiastic
young person, very evidently a
"reg'lar movie fan" complaining
because she never saw any pictures
of Charlie Ray in the paper we
decided that we could not let her
young heart suffer any more and
so here is one of her very incest
smilingest photographs.
Charlie is getting more popular
with every picture and we are even
guilty ourselves of going TO see
every one of his pictures. Here are
few minutes about him which
his young admirer VIII probably
like to know.
He is only IS years old.
He was born in Jacksonville. III.
He attended the Los Angeles
Polytechnical school at one time.
He was on the stage for foUe<
and a half years in musical and
dramatic stock and vaudeville.
He started his screen career with
Nymp.
Then the famous Mr.. Ince sign
ed him up and put Charles in the
famous class.
'The Clodhopper" was one OF his
first successes as a star.
His last picture was "Eayfoot,
Strawfoot."
He is a tall strong fellow meas
uring up to six feet and one-haIf
inch.
He has brown hair and eyes.
And here is the saddest blow OF
all for the young miss-there is
"a young and pretty Mrs. Charles
Ray.
