The keynote of the great problem

Is transportation. The Americanscom-,
mercial attache at Peking, Mr.. Julian
Arnold, has laid emphasis on thissin an
article IN the Chinese Recorder
"China's Economic Problems and

Arnold deals with the necessity Of pre-
pairing the Chinese people for the
great. economic change which is upon.
them. Railways will mean much to
China, but the necessity for the train
ing and preparation Of which Mr..
Arnold Speaks is shown to be dis
tinctly urgent when Prof. Middleton
Smiths views on the use Of airplanes
to China are known. China is q. land
Of waterways, and these waterways
afford the necessary existing lines of
transportation along which, to~secnre
the success Of commercial aviation,
airdromes and supply depots should
be established. Schools of technical
training should supply the necessary
Chinese skilled labor, and with these
aerial services established, Professor
Smith foresees such an. incalculable
increase in the rapidity Of communica-
tons as completely to revolution1ze
the country internally and add to Its
deep Importance as world factor.

FARNUM-REX TONIGHT.

The percentage of women who
lose lover when they gain a hus-
band is appallingly large. Wives. as
rule, are unwilling to admit the
tragic fact, and most of the victims
DO their pitiful best to persuade
themselves Of the falsity of the pro.
position. They fall invariably. Some
become heroines by bearing in sill
ence, as best they may, the secret
which burdens the heart. Others. of
lighter calibre, seek elsewhere that
which they cannot and at home.
The quest is always perilous, and
often disastrous. ::
There is one angle OF this wide
spread cause of marital discomfort
or woe which every married woman
Will recognize as true either in her
own case or in the case of some
friend or acquaintance. This is the
angle of the husband who APPARENT
~, not really, ceases to be the lover.
Inc man who, In order to furnish his
wife with every luxury and to ensure
her against need in the event of
wldowhood, becomes so engrossed in
business effort that he forgets or
neglects those little attentions and
manifestations of affection. which are
SO vital to a woman's happiness.
This is the theme which lies at
the very root of the thrilling story
which, Is told In the new William
Farnum de luxe production, "For
Freedom" in which the noted Will
lam Fox star is to appear at the Rex
theatre, commencing tonight.

SCULPTOR SOUGHT HIS IDEAL.

In life, as in arc, Paul Brehant, a
famous sculptor, was an idealist.
His ideal woman he thought he had
found in the Countess Olga, but one
day he learned otherwise. Then into
his life came Denise Fleury, a typical
child of Montmartre, but as yet un-
tuched by its surrounding tempta-
tions.
THE Virtuous Model" an Albert
Capellani-Pathe production starring
the dark-eyed beauty, Dolores Cassi-
nelli, showing tonight for the last
time, at the Grand theatre, is the
story of an idealist and his love af-
fairs with two women-one a RUS
sian Countess of great charm and
the other just an unknown girl Of
humble birth. Which one measured
up to his ideals?
Albert Capellani directed and
sdapted THE Virtuous Model from
the famous French play. "The Gut
ter by Pierre Wolff Capellani will
be remembered for his splendid pro-
duction of "Oh, Boy!." "The Red
Lantern" "Out of the Fog" and
