 And there are many men coming home now who feel just as Harry Brown does. The out-of doors has claimed them. They have lived and worked and fought outside confining walls and they have learned that it is a good way to spend their lives. All the books and lectures in the world couldn't have taught them what those months in the camps and trenches of France proved to them.
 But how can clerks and accountants and factory workers live out-of~doorsF They can do it by becoming farmers. That may sound like a joke, because how can a man become farmer unless he has a farm?
 The man who can answer that ques tion is Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior. He says that there is a farm waiting for every soldier who wants one, He has figures to prove what he says, too. For there are in this country more than 200, ,000. 900 acres of uncultivated land. IL is perfectly good land. too--or at least it will be when it has been Cput in shape. Some of it has no water. It needs irrigation ditches. Some of it has too much water. It needs drainage. And this land is not all in inaccessible corners of the country, far from railroads and towns. More than half of it Is east of the Mississippi. Even New York and the New England states have acre upon acre of uncu1tivated land.
 The work of making this land ready to bear crops is stupendous one.

BOOTLEGG|NG ON
 MEXICAN BORDER
Has Become So Widespread That Mexican Authorities
 Apparently Wink at It
By Associated Press


 Fl Paso. Tex, July 5.-Bootlegging has assumed widespread proportions in Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico, across the bor- der from Douglas, Ariz.. according to Americans who have investigated liquor condition in the border state. Open sa- looms are prohibited by sonora state laws. but little or no effort has been made by the authorities to curtail illicit liquor traffic, they say.
 cognizance of the situation has been taken by the authorities, however, to the extent that bill has been introduced in the state chamber of deputies permit ting the establishment of open saloons for the sale of light wines and beer under strict state supervision. The bill purposes limiting the number of saloons in accordance with population and the payment of high state and municipal licenses.
 Well informed Mexicans believe that saloons will retsrn under the proposed new law, as they contend that while Gen. P. Elias Gales. military governor of sonora, IS al advocate of prohibition he would much prefer the egalizing or the liquor traffic with the consequent revenue to combating the increasing number of bootleggers.
 The liquor situation in Agua Prleta is a troublesome one to the better class Of Sonora MeNicans, and residents of Doug las and other border towns. It is point ed out that Agua Priesa offers easy ac- cess 10 any one in Doug.as who desires to obtain liquor Al the present time certain Mexicans with a great show of friendship invite Americans across the line to vis.t the hoot,eegers

Bread Instead of Bombs

From the " OrId OutIOOk.
 Over the same air routes where once allied planes went to battle with the Germans, airplanes are now carrying food and clothing to the devastated vil- lages of northern France. No other means of transportation to many of these villages is open, for not only are the railroads destroyed but for miles the roads have been so cut to pieces that motors cannot pass over them.
 The aerial relief service began January 9, 1919, when seven planes, loaded with condensed milk for the children, flew from Bourget to3valenciennes. Teh uext day more than two tons of food and clothing were carried through the air to the devastated villages. Nj ore planes including two boche cscadrilles, hauea been added, which every day carry tons of provisions to ,HiIfages'dn need.

screen producers, went to California

cast which includes Katherine Mac
Donald. Milton Stills. Theodore Rob-

crime Griffith and others.
The Woman Thou Gavest Me" was
produced upon the stage by Derwent

in Boston with success. AS a novel
it outsold all other works of Hall
Game.
AS a picture 1t doubtless will prove
one of the screens greatest triumphs.
The tremendous story of Mary's strug-
giles after being sacrificed upon the
altar of wedlock to a man she hates
is unforgettable and as the story
covers a wide field-Egypt. Africa,
India, England and the South Polar
regions-it will be not only powerful
dramatically but colorful and fascinat-

The production has practically an

one of the best roles of his screen
career.

A new Paramount picture i'm which
that delightful and popular little star
Vivian Martin. plays the leading role
AN Innocent Adventures" will be
shown for the first time at the Isis
theatre today.
The picture shows how the inno-
cence of a little girl can sometimes
become a great and powerful force
for good and cause the regeneration
of a man. In this instance the man
was a mere boy who had once been
a thief. but who now is trying TO live
up TO the higher ideals of life-hon-
ests, truth and faithfulness queer
turn of circumstances causes the boy
TO think the girl a thief and thus
deprived of this inspiration, which had
kept him from joining his pals, he
now goes back TO the old game"
How he discovers that the girls
character is stainless and again starts
on the straight road with a firmer
step than ever is brought out i'm a
highly interesting plot. Robert Vignola
directed the picture and Clara G.. Ken
nedy wrote both the original story
and the scenario. The picture. IL is
believed. is one of the most successful
efforts of her career and is expected
to add greatly to her already enviable
popularity. if that be possible, among
screen patrons.
/. Frank r. Garbutt was the camera
man and the supporting cast includes
such well known Paramount and Art
craft players as Lloyd Hughes, Edythe
Chapman, Gertrude Norman, Hal Glenn

The land of the negligee is the land
Of perpetual summer that may be found
within four walls inclosing a steam
heating apparatus, or in other walls
that look out upon summer skies. The
negligee is no respecter of climates !;
1t insists upon being colorful and flow
erful and enchantlngly suggestive of
spring Zephyrs and garden paths,
whatever its environment. 1t is an in
spiration, an Invita- ton to leisure and
idle hours, happy change from or
binary work-a-day clothes. Every
woman should do herself Il kindness
by adopting a pretty negligee as a
playmate. 1t will put her in a pleas

colOrs are used for these. one of
them Is shown In the picture made
with an accordon-plaited skirt of
light pink crepe de chine and short
kimono Of the same material. This
kimono Is true to form so far as its
embroidered wild roses and rose foil
age are concerned, but it departs from
the original Japanese model, having
fronts that lengthen into n girdle that
ties in the back. Its neck and front
edges have folds of georgette crepe
set in, and border of narrow black
ribbon. The ribbon follows the girdle
to the end but the plaits stop at the
wastline. These folds of geOrgette
with the band of black ribbon make a
pretty finish for the flowing sleeves.
The skirt Of this negligee is long, as
is the rule with negligees. 1t might be
even longer. Satin slippers go well
with it, but there are many lovely,
fancy boudoir slippers of ribbon or
other materials to choose from, since
negligee must have footwear of it's
own character to so with ii.
