ADJUSTMENTS.
WILD ANIMAL PICTURE CALLED
CIRCUS" OF THE SCREEN.
Magnitude CT This Wonderful Film Must
Be Seen to Be Realized.

If the circus may be said to be The |
Greatest Show On Earth" then it may
truthfully be stated that The Lost City
is The Greatest Film of the Screen,
for The Lost City, a ffteen-episode pro
duction, starring Miss Juanita Hansen,
George Chcsebro and a big cast of fav-
oritc players, goes the circus one better
IN fact, several better This sensational
serial will begin its run at the Princess
Theatre tomorrow, Thursday.
Deep into the jungle went the daring
company of players to enact the scenes
Of this thrilling and intensely adventure
some story, Drawing the very jaws of death
III their determination to picture the ter
rifying dangers Of these strange lands,
nciviized people and ferocious beasts. So
while introducing all Of the wild animals
The Lost City pictures them in their
native haunts, and for the most time I'M
| fettered and free.
| Hazardous indeed was the venture of
the big company, but the story called
| for realism, and this could hardly have
| been possible with Gagged or tanned ami
mails; hence the trip into the jungle it
self to tempt the many beasts to display
! their natural ferocity before the camera
while the actors and actresses portrayed
the many scenes Of the exciting story
To the beautiful and equally courageous
.Iuanta Hansen, who enacts the role of
The Lost Princess, must be given a great
share Of the credit for the realism Of
this wonderful story, for it was to her
that the story called for the most daring
chances; and that she met the test again
and again in scenes that must have seemed
far more real than any spectator who
views them can imagine, is monumental
testimony to her courage and nerve-the
more noteworthy because o. the fact that
she is hnt a mere slip Of a girl.
To deliberately place herself within react
Of ferocious. untamed lions and leopards
trusting entirely to the ability OF another
person to asso a Swinging leopard IN Il
md-air fight before it could fasten it
claws and teeth uDon her, must call fo
more than mere ordinary courage. and on
cannot fail to share the thrill that mus

MEDICAL INSPECTION
IN COUNTY SCHOOLS
Summary of Results in Examination of
564 Picked at Random Shows
Less Than so Per Cent Normal

A summary Of results Of the examination
Of 564 school children by District Health
Officer Chester s. Leach of this place
during the fall and early winter is now
available. 1t is as follows:
Five hundred sixty-foT pupils were
picked at random, representing six Of the
smaller towns in different parts OF Wind
ham county.
In each case care has been taken to
record only those defects which are GER
tain to do harm to the future health Of
the child
Those cassed as mentally deficient, are
frankly such and not merely backward
in studies; those reported as having adj
enoids are unquestionable cases-the
doubtful ones being checked for future OBJ
servation.
in throat examinations care has been
taken to check only those cases in which
because the tonsils were known to be
diseased or else enlarged to an extent that
caused mechanical obstruction, operation
was Indicated About 80 per cent Of all
children examined in this series were
found to have enlarged tonsils in some
degree. but unless surgical measures were
clearly indicated, they were checked for
later examination.
In examination of teeth, records are
for permanent teeth only.
Under defective vision only those cases
are recorded in which the deficiency has
never been corrected, or if glasses were
worn, they were found to he incorrect
Those with properly corrected vision were

A few towns in the district failed to
vote for medical inspection in Their re

to have this article inserted in the warn
ing and some because Of the belief that
it was still done at the expense of the
towns
Parents of children who are found to
have abnormal conditions which should
have attention are advised of the fact
and urged to have them corrected. It is a
Measure to announce that the interest

trade are the general turmoil abroad.

In view II these conditions Il is
rather unfortunate" that Kentucky
and other American growers have
planted such a tremendous large crop
as that which Government reports in
dictate is in sight this year Mr.. Tuck
said. The short credit supply also Is
likely 20 make !, rather difficult for
the growers 10 finance huge crop, he
added. Every manufacturer in
Europe has plenty Of tobacco on hand

Governments and manufacturers over

are three crops Of Java and sumatra

There is little prospect for the re-
