CHAPLIN DOES "HIGHBROW'
DANCES IN HIS NEWEST
PRODUCTION .SUNNYSIDE'
Surrounded by Classical Maidens He
Expresses Himself" in Original
Fashion.

Charlie Chaplin expresses himself
in the new aesthetic dances, which
are quite the thing in the most artis-
tic circles, in "Sunnyside," his third
million dollar picture, released by
First National, which will be shown
at the Orpheum Theatre, Monday and
Tuesday, Aug. and 5. The manner
in which Charlie gets in with group
Of beautiful and scantily draped young
girls which are engaged in this sort
Of dance is quite Chaplinesque.
Such thing as riding COW is al
most never attempted in the country,
even by the boy and girl who take
the cows out to pasture and bring
them back at night. But Charlie at
tempts this when he tries to induce q
COW to leave the church in which the
bossy has been breaking up the meet
ing.
Landing in a ditch on his head, the
little comedian goes into a state of
coma wherein he "sees things" While
these are imaginary to him, on the
screen they seem real enough, and
the sight of Charlie burlesquing the
serious sort of dance which St. Denis,
and Hoffman, and others less famous
give, surrounded by beautiful young
girls, bare Of limbs, furnishes most
entertaining combination.
After this little advertisement
Charlie settles down to his real prob
lem in the picture, that of saving the
love of his rural sweetheart from be-
ing stolen by Getty dude who APP
pears in the community with fine
automobile.

A CORRECTION.

Bismarck, July goth, 1919.
Editor Ward County Independent,
Minot, North Dakota.
Dear Sir:
Your article entitled million Hail
Losses Claimed in the State" in the
Independent for July oath, came un-
der my observation, and / notice one
misstatement in same, which I would
thank you to correct in your next is
sue.
You state: SHOULD they {the loss
esq be unusually high the maximum
assessment Of SOC an acre might not
suffice to meet the demands of the
fund, and it would be- necessary for
the department to issue warrants
against the 1920 revenues"
This is erroneous, as the law does
not contemplate levying against fu-
ture business. Each year must take
care Of its own losses, and in case
these should exceed the limit set by
law, the funds will be pro-rated and
the balance borne by the claimants.
Aside from this error, your article is
fair, and your estimates perhaps as
good as the next could do.
Yours very truly,

NOTICE TO STATE HAIL ADJUST
ORS AND WARNING TO FARMERS

The State Hail Insprance Depart
ment wishes to announce that no
claims for damages by hail will be
recognized or paid on grains insured
under the State Hail Fund, if said
crop has been left uncut, and not har-
vested and cared for in proper season
reasonably consistent with good hus-
bandry.
The department hsa been liberal in
adjusting and allowing losses, based
upon the actual damage caused by
hail, and not upon the condition of the
crop, which is the custom Of old line
companies.
Our principle has been, that when
the insured has fulfilled his part Of
the contract, does his work right and
pays his premium, he is entitled to in
demnity for the actual damage the
hail would have wrought to a full
crop, even though the yield may have
been reduced to a stage below the
cost of harvesting, if such reduction is
caused by some act of providence.
This construction applies only to
conditions prior, or up to the time Of
maturity, however, and we hope that
no one will be so INSCRIPTIONS as to
report and demand damages by reason
of hail on grain which has been left
uncut and abandoned. -
Such attempts will be closely watch
ed, and promptly turned down, but
even an attempt would be an unjust
squandering of the funds and viola
tiop of all principles of hail insurance.

Insurance Commissioner.
