Doris Kenyon, who starred IN new
De Luxe pictures, six-part photodra-
ma entitled Twilight" apears to have
added another to her already many
screen achievements, for "Twilight" is
undoubtedly Miss Kenyon's most pre-
tentious effort.
The new Offering which is by Louis
Joseph Vance, based on story in the
Metropolitan Magazine from the pen
of Vingie E. Roe, is considered by +
&c. DIETRICH, Miss Kenyon's producer, to
be the best thing she has ever done
for the screen. Miss Kenyon herself
is highly pleased with the picture
which involved some very hard work
for the young star on mountain loca'

declared himself satisfied with the
product.

Congress has turned down the
plans for a large army and It has
decided that the regular establish

not be very much larger than that
which was maintained before the big
war. This decision was proper We

THE NATIONAL GUARD

Steps should be taken as soon as
possible for the reorganization Of the
National Guard. The Home Guard
which took its place as a protection
against internal disorder did it's work
well. We have never seen in Jack
sonville better drilled soldiers than
those of the Home Guard but they are
generally of an age that would not
be accepted for service against for
eign enemy. What we need is an
organization that could prevent dis
order at home and be prepared for
service against a foreign enemy and
this latter work would be assigned
only to young men that composed the
Home Guard.
We are sure that the men who wena
into this organization were willing to
serve their country anywhere and the
majority of them were fit but their
service cost more than would the
service of younger men. They arc
men of affairs who have established
themselves so in business that theiI
time in that field is of much more
value than that of the younger men.
The National Guard made splen.

composed entirely of Nationa
Guardsmen, were the first troops t

National Guardsmen were not found

.he very same Fairy who had first
.aueht the little girl to look into the
,,ogic dewdrops She was Just as
lovely as before, and she held her
,,ttle watering pot in her tiny hand.
che smiled at Dolly and said:
"Have you been pleased with all
The things you have SEEM"
"oh, yes, indeed. I never had such

sAen the most beautiful pictures and
hoard so many things about the veg

things into the ground and why they
are there and everything said the
little girl all in one breath.

said the Fairy.
You can guess that Dolly did not
wait to be asked twice.
What she saw surprised her very
much. It was a kind Of house, but
such a tumble-down looking house.
Loose and broken stones were piled
about. and on top of them were some
rough boards. It looked as though
If might be some kind of stable.
But no really nice horse would have
liked to live in it. Dolly couldn't
think what it could be for, but soon
she saw some smoke coming out of a
hole in the boards. She wondered
if people could be in such rough
place.
She had not noticed something like
a rude door in the side, until it OPP
ened. A little girl came out. She
looked very pale and thin. Her
clothes were very poor. She walked
out in front of the cabin and looked
down what might have, been street.

the way, were other cabins as rough
and poor looking as this. Then she
began to see that these piles of
stones had once been houses They
had all been thrown down.
"Why, what happened to knock
down all their houses? said Dolly.
"They were knocked down by big
guns" said the Fairy. "This was
pretty village once and, all the peo-
ple had plenty to eat and wear. Then
some wicked men came and fired
their guns at the houses and those
riles of stone are all that is left.
They even cut down all the trees SO
that the people here could not have
any fruit if they should ever come
home"
Dolly saw many broken tree
stumps. 1t had once been line or
chard full of apples and ounces
Now every tree had been killed. Some
of them were still lying where they
had fallen.
"For more than four years" sald
the Fairy, "the men of this village
