GIVEN NAMES OF PRESIDENTS
Historical Appellations Bestowed on Summits of Mountain Range in
 Old Vermont

Heretofore when one spoke of the presidential range everyone - every New Englander, at least-knew, with out further particularizing, that Mount Washington and it's attendant summits was the subject, writes Allen Cham script.
 Henceforth one must needs be more specific. since during the last year . rival presidential range has appeared on the map In Vermont. That region, hitherto generally spoken of as the Bread Loaf Mountain section, lying between Middlebury gap and the Lin coln-Warren pass, was but little known, except in Its southerly portion. until the Green Mountain club men ran their Skyline trail through. They found there maze of unnamed sum- mits grouped as in council, and seem- ingly worthy of being recognized as individuals of distinction.
 Just north of these heights Is the rugged mass whose summits have been known for more than half a century as Mounts Abraham and Lincoln. Quite naturally the idea of a new presiden. tial range arose and, with great parti- san restraint, four of the neighboring mountains were therefore named Mount Grant. Mount Grover Cleve- land, Mount Roosevelt and Mount Woodrow Wilson.

No More Shiny Domes.

After the wonders which we have seen worked for the soldiers who suf- fered disagreement during the war, 1t is not surprising that plastic sur geons are turning their attention to improving civilians also. Ugly noses, projecting ears, harelips and all sorts of other obstacles to good looks will probably be easily corrected in the not-far-away future. The most in- teresting thing along this line which has been recently discovered is that no one need suffer from badness any more. By grating piece of skin from some part of the head where hair is still growing onto the bald patch. a new covering is said to be insured.

Persian Dervishes Demand Alms as . Rlsht and Simple People Read
 fly Give Up.

A feature of Persian life which illus trates the simple and superstitious nature of the people of the mideast is their tolerance of the dervishes. These weird. gypsylike beggars infest the cities and annoy the village folk in passing from one place to another, ac- cording to their VOWS of itinerancy.
 These are not the whirling dervishes of circus fame. Whirling would be too energetic a form of worship for the members of this most ancient leisure class. Their greatest exertion consists of walking slowly and blowing a horn to announce their presence.
 The dervish of Persia is known by his begging bowl, conical cap. animal skin cape and club. The weapon, which Is usually a stick driven through with nails. Is carried conspicuously. It fact, 1t seems unpleasantly ready for use when its owner calmly de- mands tribute. It is true that there is small danger of it's use. even if aims are refused. but . refusal how ever polite and apologetical. is sure to arouse the wrath of the dervish. His vocabulary may be unintelligible, but the meaning of his threats and proph- ecies Is usually understood. Fellow citizens of the dervish tribe prefer to make gift at any cost in order to avoid having the wrath of heaven called down upon them in the masterly language of an experienced heaven in- voker.
 The dervish makes himself useful to the community honored by his pres ence by telling fortunes and stories, reciting prayers. selling charms and even curing the sick by blowing his sacred breath on them-all in return for which he turns over to his chief after deducting . living wage.

the screen, who is appearing at the
Murray Theatre in his latest William
Fox production, forbidden Trails"
has risen from the job of a cowpuncher
to the position of a motion picture
star whose extraordinary horseman-
ship and daring thrill the most I'M
emotional of theatre-goers.
Born in Vincennes, Indiana, Buck at
an early age tired of the quiet life of
that town and migrated to Red Lodge,
Montana, to join the Triangle Bar
Ranch. Here he remained six months
as a cowpuncher; then he enlisted in
the Sixth United States Cavalry. He
saw service in the Philippines, where
he was wounded in battle. Suisse
quently, when fully recovered, he was
transferred to the Army Air Service
in which he remained until his dis
charge in 1913.
During his service on the Triangle
Bar Ranch, Buck became noted as a
rider; so following his discharge from
the army he cast his lot with Miller
Brothers 101 Ranch as trick in their
wild west show. He broke horses in
this country for the French Govern
ment soon after the start of the Eu-
ropean war, but later went to France,
where he was attached to the staff of
a French General.
During his service overseas he
thrilled many notables with his daring
and stunts as a horseman-amone
them being former Premier Clemen
ceau of France, King Albert of Bel
GUM, former President Poincare OF
France, the King and Queen of Great
Britain and the King and Queen OF
Italy. According to advance reports
this latest Buck Jones picture is the
| greatest of thrillers.
