HONEYMONERS ARE
 WRECKED ON DESERT !" ISLE IN MID PACIFIC

YOKOHAMA, Japan, July 2S. > Two American sailors named w. V, Dawson and E. Clifton have reached here after exciting experiences in the South Seas. Their term of naval service expiring on the American island of Guam they welded native daughters of Uncle Sam's island and decided to take a honeymoon trip to Australia.
 They embarked on a 40 foot launch. Understanding the dis tance they soon discovered that their food and fuel was exhausted. Then came a typhoon.t The fragile craft was wrecked and the four newly married young people were thrown up on a desert isle which they found entirely uninhabited.
 There, doubtless, they would have continued a Robinson .Crusoe type of existence had not a small Japanese trading vessel put in for water. They were rescued and taken on the former German island of Yap. where later they embarked on Japanese naval supply steamer for Yokohama.

GOOD ACTING BY CHINAMAN
 IN 1.-THE GlRe FROM OUTSIDE"

When Rex Beach writes a story it is always we'll filled with charac- ters true to life and when the Palace theatre presents the new Goldwyn picture, "The Girl from Outside, commencing Thursday, there will be a chance to see some finely drawn characters who live -blooded lives for seven reels of red-hot drama, the kind that we all like to see again and again.
 One of the lesser lights, but a role that carries itself well through out the play, is that of Chow, the Chinese cook, who attends to the house of the five wags, men who live by their Smooth" work. One of the wags, "The Kid" played by Cullen Landis, is Chow's pet. He brings the cook a pipe and Chow re- wards him with hot doughnuts. The two are cronies and once Chow saves him from a gang when the boy turns straight" His subtle menace, with one hand up his sleeve clutching a dagger, keeps the men away Chow exclaims in stolid tones.

 Modern hotels and other attrac- tens vonld be erected on the isicnd accordng ito the plan being cor. sidered. The beauty and verdure of the island MT Bryan says. is similar to the oldest part of the Hawaiian Islands.

UNIVERSITY CQNFERS 7, HONORARY DEGREE
 s ON CANADIAN WIZARD

' PRNUE ALBERT, Canada, July 2S-Seager Wheeler, wheat wiz ard'', whose improvements on grow ing methods have made millions of dollars for Canadian farmers, has had conferred upon him the degree of doctor of laws by Queens Uni versity of Kingston, Ontario.
 To wheat, Wheeler, his friends say, is what Luther Burbank is to flowers. By selective breeding he originated Marquis wheat, now western Canada's staple wheat. Red Rob, his latest, ripens ten days earlier than any other and, by escaping early frosts is expected to extend the wheat belt 100 miles north. Wheeler's produce tion of 82 bushels an acre is said to be the worlds record.
 Thousands visit Wheeler's Sas katchewan farm yearly to study his growing methods. Although others have pfofited, he, it is said, has re mained a comparatively poor man.
 "You have added enormously to the wealth of Canada and every settler is a gainer by your researches" R. Bruce Taylor, president of Queens said in conferring the de-. gree. What you have done can never be undone."
