CONCERNING MACK sENNETT
AND TIE IMpORTANT BEN.

Every time I see a Mack Sennett COM
edy production the writer is curious to
know Just how much OF the affair is
Sennett, how much the movie writer and
what part Is Ben Turpin.
Ben Turpin 10 rapidly moving 70 the
front as screen comedian. and when
he advances the sennett comedies become
more and more the serious contender for
first place In screen comedy productions.
The nane OF sennett is magnetic. as
his name draws the folk in from the
streets into the movie theaters, and
when the fans see the name of Ben Tur-
pin as a member OF the cast the value
OF a sennett production IS increased
three fold.
That was the feeling every one
seemed 70 have the other day when
visited the Circle to see Mack sennett's
production OF Married Life"
ME minute that the sennett production
was flashed on the screen every one
was satisfied and the second that Turpin's
name appeared there was applause
1t seems that II takes the two namss
70 make the entertainment an assured sue
cess. and It Is 10 be hoped that these
two gentlemen. who take the funmaking
business seriously, viii continue their
partnership.

He is now Mr.. Ayres. director OF edu-
cation for the Russell Sage Foundation.
At the close of tho war Col Ayres
compiled for the war department a
statistical summary which showed at
glance what had happened during those
months Of conflict.
His summary showed, for instance
that that the total battle deaths in the
recent war were greater than the deaths
in all wars for hundred years before !;
that Russia suffered most. despite her
withdrawal: that Germany lost thirty
two times as many men as the United
States; France twenty eight times as
many, and Great Britain eighteen times
as many.
SO IN 900
ARE KILLED.
In this war fifty~three men In 1000
were killed IN battle IN year. whils in
the civil war thirty three in 1000 were
so klued. ana In the Mexican war ntteen
I'm each 1000.
Thus tho death rate IN battle during
the world war was highest of oil wars
Col Ayres further reported that during
the Mexican war 10 in each 1000 men
died OF disease, and that sixty five Ga
each !. 900 were lost from the same cause
during the civil war
But during the world war tho loss
from disease was only nineteen in each
