CrandaIr.-.Eyes OF Youth.-

Eyes OF Youth" one of the most
unusual photodramas OF the year.
with Clara Kimball Young and a cast
OF genuine stellar distinction pictured
in the roles of chief importance,
opened a threeIday run at Crsndall's
Theater yesterday afternoon. In this
subject Miss Young has by far the
most noteworthy vehicle OF her
career, all of the dramatic qualities
Of the original Max MARGIN play hav-
ing been retained in the silent version
and many extraordinary effects hav-
ing been added through the wider scope
OF the studio brand of stagecraft.
The narrative unfolded during the
impressive action OF this drama con-
Germs the experience Of girl who is
given the power TO scan the future
through the gazing crystal OF a mys-
terious Yogi. The three divisions OF
the play disclose what happened IN
turn on the path Of duty. on the path
OF ambition and on the path OF
wealth. The great diversity OF Incl
dent thus permitted to be introduced
affords Miss Young opportunity 20 run
the gamut of emotions and imper-
senate types ranging from a triumph
ant prima donna TO a human wreck
sunken TO the lowest levels OF social
degradation through use OF drugs.
Supporting the star are such artists
as William Courtleigh. Vincent Ser
rano. Milton Sills. Lionel Belmore.
Gareth Hughes and Pauline Starke.
The production Is a mammoth one
and the direction fiawless. Conspicu-
Gus among those cast in roles of only
contributory interest in the working
out Of the dramas major theme is
Norman Selby. more widely known
as Kid Mccoy. whose successful i'm
personation in Broken Blossoms is
repeated in Miss Young's support.
Suplementing the principal feature
OF the early-week bill are a variety
of abbreviated camera subjects and
excellently selected and synchronized
orchestral accompaniment

RESTRICTIONS PLACED
 ON FISHING IN PARK

LIVINGSTON, Mont, July 10 (by Associated Press).-It now is unlawful for visitors in Yellowstone national park, or others, to catch more than ten fish in streams and lakes within two miles of the park highways, ac- cording to official announcement at the park. Parties fishing more than two miles from the main travelled roads will not be affected by the new regulations, and twenty fish may be caught.
 The decreased limit of the catches has been put into effect, it is said, to afford more pleasure to the thousands of fishing enthusiasts who visit their favorite trout haunts in the park each year. The action was taken upon rec ommendation of Dr. H. M. Smith, com missioner of the United States bureau of fisheries. With the exception Of several streams in the southern dis trict of the park, tourists are permitted access to all it's waters.

AFTER BONES OF DINOSAURS
 ON RED RIVER 

EDMONTON, Alta, July 10 (by As sociated Press) - Another expedition to look for the bones of great prehis- toric reptiles in the Red River valley of Alberta is on it's way here. This time it is under the direction of Dr. w A. Parks of the University of Toronto and the Royal Ontario mu scum For number of years these expeditions have been an annual sum- mer journey for three months. Two years ago the almost perfect specimen of the kritosaurus incuryimanus, which has just been finally clipped free from the rock and presented to the museum, was found, making dis tinct addition to the records of science, and giving to Toronto the only speci- men of this species yet discovered. Three incomplete skeletons of the kritosaurus and great horned head of a brontosaurus, four feet six inches
  but have not yet been carved from the rock It is the hope of Professor Parks to collect ultimately for the Royal On tario museum one of the finest exhi0- it's of dinosaurs in existence
 The locality and the method of ind ing the specimens are described by Professor Parks. 'The river cuts right through the fiat prairie to a depth of 400 feet, forming whole lot Of broken buttes, and it is among these that the bones are discovered. One of the difficulties in obtaining complete specimens is that the bones cannot be obtained until they are part lv exposed by the action of natural deroding causes. Sometimes you are disappointed then, for after exploring you may find only a single bone. You dig down as close as you can md pack the rock in plaster paris for shipment"
 The Red River valley 100000 years ago was near the coast of great inland sea that stretched from the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic ocean. ''The sand along the shallow, brachsh ~ shores of this great body of water formed a splendid preservative for those huge reptiles which inhabited : the world at that time. Our kritoaurus was found in what we call the Belly river formation of the Upper Cfeta- cean system,' explains Professor Parks.

MOTHERS OF AMERICA 10 KEEP THE COUNTRY DRY
 EVANCELINE BOOTH SAYS

LONDON, July 70 (by Assoclatel Pcess). - Evangeline Booth, head of the Salvation Army jn America, tcld British newspapermen that should pro- hibition in the United Statees be re- pcaled lover the protests of the women, I will fill America from sea to set with parades of children bear ing banners, and no liquor interests could prevail against these demonstra- tions'' She said, however, in her opin- ion, "the mothers of America will keep that country forever dry.'
 Miss Booth declared prohibition had reduced accidents by half in the United States, had promoted health, and done away, with the hobo and un- employment" but she added crime had not appreciably decreased because of effects of the "great war-strain."
 The Salvation Army industrial homes will have to be put to other uses than shelters for unemployed hungry men, she said, because the men who formerly sought refuge in them now are earning wages which enables them to pay for the accommo dations.

SCULPTOR VISUALIZES
 OLD TIGER OF FRANCE

 Francois, the sculptor, is chiselling the group work out of hard Burgun- dian stone. Unfinished, the work is already said to visualize with great character, the scene so often pictured of the old Tiger" mentally and al- most physically, fighting for France
 The Premier's figure stands eight feet high. He is, as always in the war days, wearing the long, loose overcoat and the soft, slouchily crumpled hat, leaning on a cane. His face is toward the enemy, his eyes watching the horizon, following in- dications given him by seated of ficer with maps, beside him. On his right are grouped soldiers and in the trench below are more of the men in the ranks, looking with mingled as tonishment and admiration at their minister of war.
 The scene is said by critics to be vividly natural, rough and muddy but heroic and full of the color and char acter of war days.

To Play.

The following poem is published by
request of the Terrell County Teach
ers' Association. 1t was written by
Mr.. Dennis A. Mccarthy, an d
read by him at the County Teachers
Institute recently held in Dawson:
Proud is the city-she finds place,
For many fad today,
Bur she's more than blind if she fails
to find
A place for the boys to play
Give them a chance for innocent sport
Give them a chance for fun
Better a play ground than court
And a jail when the harm is done:
Give them a chance-if you stint them
now,
Tomorrow you'll have to pay
A larger bill for darker i'll,
So give them place to play!

A Useful Life Ends the Earthly Pill

Following an illness of several days

Mrs. Bryan's early life was spent in
Randolph and Early counties, her
home for number of years being in
Blakely, where she was an active and
useful member of the Methodist
church. Eight years ago she came to
reside in Dawson, and few women OF
the community have been more zeal
Gus and active in all good works. She
gave literally of her means to the
church, and her self-sacrifice during
the world war was constant express
sion of the purest patriotism. 1t can
be truly said of this good woman
"she hath done what she could and
what finer tribute could be paid?
She is survived by two children, Mr..
A. L. Bryan, of Coleman, and Mrs.
w. S. Roberts, with whom she made
her home since coming to this city,
nine grandchildren and two sisters,
the latter being Mrs. J. c. McLendon
and Mrs. J. T. Roberts, both of Cole
man.
Seventy-fve years OF life were al
lotted to the deceased and the full
measure of her service may be express
ed in one word, "ethers." The tired
body rests in Cedar Hill cemetery, and
the family and friends find comfort i'll
the thought that latter life's htful
fever she sleeps well.
