spirit in breaking away from the usual screen stories; but in so doing he has scored a distinct triumph
 One of the best characterization Will Rogers hax ever done is that of Sam Gardner in "The Strange Board er," which will be presented at Fox's for the remainder of the week
 Portraying a man of the open plains, robbed by bunco men. and then accused of crime he did not commit, Rogers has ample opportun- ity for revelation of fine humor and the delicate touches of pathos so peculiarly his own.
 The Strange Boarder." is an ab- sorbing story of real life and Will Rogers plays the role of Sam Gard ner. a rancher who is double-crossed+ by his friends who persuaded him to enter a deal, the outcome of which proves disastrous to him. The role of Gardner is that Of a modest man. a real American country type, one who is always game through all his misfortunes, and who, for the sake of other people. makes sacrifices which reveal the manhood underlying the frank. rugged. honest surface. It is a plain. simple story. with mingling of pathos humor and ex- citing situations and climaxes. The remainder of the screen pro- gram will include The Jazz Bandits" "A Counter Plot" those two inimit- able fun provokers Mutt and Jeff and the Fox News.
 There will be an entire change of the vaudeville offerings

 MT. Gallagher issued a statement today relating what Ponzi had told him of operations which he claimed brought him 100 per cent. profit and ena hled payment of 50 per cent profit to investors. The statement says:
 Mir. Ponzi said that he had in the United States upwards of $5,oo0,000 and between $S,000,oo0 and s9.00O.- 900 in depostaries abroad. He was asked why it was that having $S,- 100000 or s9,0oo,o0o in American money he should maintain an office here to solicit and receive more money. or why he should need to pay agents a commission for soliciting people to invest. He said that he did not need the money but that he would eventually need the people.
 When asked for what purposes he would need the people he did not know; that 1t was possible that he might want to run for office.'"

RED PEPPER PIE
 MYSTERY UNSOLVED
Springfield Court Has Unusual
 Case

Springfield, Mass, July 2s.-Who put the red pepper in Mrs. Gladden's pie: Judge Heady devoted two hours Tn police court to the matter yester- day morning and didn't find out. Then no discharged John J. Dillon, alleged dispenser of the pepper.
 Dillon is proprietor of Dillon's conee house, located near the West lnghouse plant. Mrs Gladden., col. ored. is an employe of the westing- house company, and mas been a GUS toner of Dillon. She has discon- tinued, however.
 Mrs. Gladden. alleged that on June 23 she and Miss Marjorie Evans, also colored, went to DilIon's for some dessert. They carry their lunches Mrs. Gladden. selected a big brown custard pie and bought generous portion. Then they returned to the Westinghouse works to finish their meal. But one mouthfuI of that pie was all that was eaten. One mouthful and Mrs. Gladden. spit it right out on the floor and yelled and ran for wa ter, lots of water. For that nice big brown custard pie was filled with red pepper.
 According to further testimony of the plaintiff she suffered all kinds of torture tnat afternoon ana TOT days to come. She isn't just right yet. So Dillon was charged with assault.
 Mrs. Gladden. appeared in court yesterday with Miss Evans. Ander- son Moore and Attorney w. Fl. Mar tin. Dillon appeared with Stanley Rosenthall. chef. and Attorney Rich ard J. Talbot. Remains of the rie was also produced. No one sampled it, however.
 But the commonwealth's witnesses had q bad inning and so contradicted each other and themselves and be- came so indefinite as to the identity of the men who waited on them that the case finally ended in deep. dark mystery. There remained so much doubt as to whether it was Dillon or Rosenthall or one of two counter men who really served that nice big brown custard pie, that the court discharged Dillon.
 Both Miss Evans and Anderson Moore testified to having purchased coffee with pepper in 1t at Dillon's and

In the kitchen of her own home Sister Mary cooks daily for a family Of four adults. She brought to her Kitchen an understanding of the chemistry of cooking. gained from study of domestic science in a state university. Consequently the advice she offers is a happy combination of theory and practice. Every recipe she gives is her own, first tried out and served at her family table.
 Watermelon rinds make deliciou. sweet pickles. So although melons may be quite expensive to buy, they will produce a by-product in the form of pickles that reduces their cost in the long run.
 If the melon is served as a cocktail and cut in balls. the rind is left in- tact. If the fruit is to be used as dessert. a nice way co serve it IS to cut trisngular-shaped pieces and re- movo the rind. leaving only the red heart of the melon. Both of these ways of serving watermelon preserve the rind for use in pickling
 To make watermelon pickles. pare off carefully the green part of the rfnd. Trim of also any of the red part. Cut in lengths about an inch thick and two inches long. To Is cups of melon rinds use teaspoons of salt. Put rinds and salt in kettle with water to nearly cover and boil until tender. Pour into a col ander and drain. Dry between towels.

 Almost any fruit may be treated in the same way. The fruit need only stand over night if one prefers. This juice added to iced tea with a sprig of crushed mint is refreshing on a hot day. In preparing the drink to be served. one must rely very largely on ones taste. Be sure it's cold as ice can make it and taste until the de- sired sweetness is attained.
 Raspberries and entrants combine we'll in jam or drinks. Use as many entrants as berries. extract the juice and strain. Use about cups of sugar 10 cups of juice.
 These fruit juices can be added to ice-water as well as tea but the tea makes a moro tasty drink.

Inslss on Burial in China.


A good Chinaman insists on being
buried in China. He may live In the
United States, but when he is about
to die he makes it clearly understood
that: his remains are to be transport
ed to the Far East for final burial.
To transport each body separately
would be prohibitive in cost for the
average Chinaman's estate. Hence es-
tablished procedure is to accumulate
aTlarge number Of bodies until they
make up a shipment and can be trans.
ported at minimum expense. From
the time the Chinaman dies until the
shipload is being made up, his body
is kept in separate compartment of
. stone structure which serves as a
cemetery. After placing the body In
It's compartment or pigeon hole, 1T is
sealed in with a thin cement wall.
Each compartment is numbered, and
a suitable epitaph is written on the
cement wall in flowery Chinese char
acters. "F

Judue'S Black Cap.

In olden days, the legal profession
was mainly composed Of clerics. As
the clergy were not allowed to take
life on any account, difficulty arose
when it came to pronouncing the death
sentence. ! 1t was avoided by covering
the tonsure-that shaven circle at the
crown of the head which was once
universally the token Of priesthood
with black cloth just before passing
sentence, thus signifying that for the
moment the judge was a layman and
not a priest. AS is often the case in
law, when the reason for custom
itself has long since died ont, the GUS
tom itself lives on. Hence to this day
black cap-which, by the way, is
not shaped like cap but is an ordi-
nary square piece of black CLOTHS
placed on the judges head just before
the fatal words are spoken.

Metal Heavie. Than Gold.

Anybody who has been allowed to
handle a gold brick, perhaps on the
occasion Of visit to the mint, must
have been astonished to find how
heavy it was. Gold is, in fact, twice
as heavy as lead. Yet It Is not the
heaviest of metals. That rank Is held
by osmium, which IS one-sixth heavier
than gold. At the other end OF the
scale Of weights We have lithium,
which is so light that it will float on
water. 1t is queer stuff. Put small
chunk Of it on your desk and you Will
soon observe that it is~growing small
er. Before long it will disappear en-
tirely, vaporized. Magnesium Is near
-ly three times as heavy as lithium
yet it is considerably lighter than
aluminium, which we are accustomed
to regard as SO remarkable for its
lightness Of weight.
