 DOUGLAS LINK

A recent bulletin issued by the Ma tional Bureau of Research states that more than 16,000, 900 persons of the United States and Canada, ranging in age from sixteen to sixty years and of both sexes, fail to follow the dictates of their own minds in deciding the everyday happenings of life, but that they rely on fortune tellers, palmists, mediums, sand readers, clairvoyants, phrenogolists, astrologists or other
 who profess to have power over the human destiny.
 The remarkable statement of this research society goes on further to
 state that in this country alone there is circulation of ten million Ouii9 boards. In this mystic little toy. men women and children place their faith
 in future happiness and deeds of glory as well as disasterous happenings are attributed to the weird predictions of the Ouija.
 Douglas Fairbanks is one of the ten million Ouija enthusiasts included in the findings of the research stati- elan. When the great question of future happiness marriage. confronts him in his latest United Artists screen production, When the Clouds Roll By" which will be shown at the Grand theatre next Friday.
