WhO Is MAY CHRISTIE?

May Christie has record that writer twice her years might be proud of-she is still i'll her early twenties.
 In 1915, while visiting America, she dropped into the offices of the Philadelphia Evening Ledger and was at once engaged as editor of the Woman's Page on the strength of the opening chapters of serial entitled SThe Adventures of Ellen Adair in America Later the Curtis Publishing Company sent her to Paris as war correspondent under the name of Ellen Adair-advertising her, with photographs, on street cars, subways and with huge billboards from Philadelphia to New York
 At the same time Miss Christie was writing under her own name for The Me Cure Newspaper Syndicate. Her ''Tales from the Firing Line' were featured by the New York Sun and numerous other papers.
 Less than two years ago, toward the close of her war work, she made great hit with the Northcliffe publications. "Only country Girl, which ran for ten weeks in the Daily Mirror" brought hundreds of let ters daily from soldiers in every part of the world. The story was translated into many languages, including Norwegian.
 Ihls was followed by 'The Eternal Eve" which appeared in the Daily Sketch" the great rival of the Daily Mirror''-owned by SIT Edward Hutton. Then came "The Cam ouflage Lover" in the Sunday Herald" and another of Sir Edward Hulton's papers, to be followed ln Lord Northcliffe's Daily Mir ror' by Loves Gamble" which appeared appeared last June and July. The "Daily Mrror' IS now running At Cupid's Call"
 Miss Christie is perhaps the most pop ular and highest paid woman writer of news paper fiction of the moment. She was ham merlng out copy on her typewriter all the til tune she could spare from being seasick on the way over here. Every mail has taken more copy" back to satisfy her English edi- tors: In addition to this she has been writ ing her Impressions" for the New York Evening World and they want her to con tlnue indefinitely. Publishers and moving picture representatives are competing for her work.
 This is the highly-paid and popular writer who will furnish readers of the Ora phic with their next serial.
 She comes high, but we know you'll think she's worth it. And to please you is sufficient reward for the Graphic.

leaving it free from acid that might act
on the fibre after long storage.
Rabbit fur has been used for hat and
dress for some years, but the failure to
attain permanent fixing of the hair to the
pelt has greatly limited its use, according
to local authorities on the subject. Mr..

source of almost unlimited supply for a

Underwood and the other for the short
term to fill out the uneXpired term OF
the late Senator Bankhead. Senator
| Underwood has been nominated by the
Democrats to succeed himself, while

Doug" Has No Intention
Of Retiring From Screen

Recently there has been 70 end OF ru-
mors going about the country that Dou'
glas Fairbanks has gotten tired Of real
work and thu producing of pictures,
and like the nincty-ninc per cent of I'll
such stories they have no foundation.
Tho fact of the matter Doug has
just really begun to do his best work.
he having at last been freed from the
necessity OF turning out pictures on
schedule, by reason Of the fact that nc
owns his own producing company. with
all OF his product marketed By tho
United Artists. Because of this he has
been enabled 10 cxpend far more time
on his productions, thereby making them
far superior to any that he made In
years past, and because of their greater
degree OF perfection has been enabled
TO attract moro fans TO his fold Of pop
ularity. making his pictures mora rRlu-
able and because nf that II Is possible
for him to expnnd far moro money on
everything he docs.
Tho Mark OF Zorro" Is Fairbanks
latest United Artists release which is to
br the feature at the Liberty theatre
all this week. and Immediately after he
had completed that picture, he was harl
at work on another. and was making
arrangements for additional pictures
that VIII be distributed by United Ar
lists.

Plan to Feed and water Steers In Ship
msnt In the Wheeling
Yards,

Il Is stated that a plan Is In the maxi
Ing to have Wheeling as an unloading
feeding and watering place for cattle
that are being shipped through from the
far west to Tho east. both as Consign-
ments TO cities OIL the Atlantic scaboRrd
and for overseas shipments.
The law at present holds that cattle
must y" taken from n" cars and fed
and waterrd every 3f hours. Many cat
tie are taken from the cars ut Renwood
but as facilities arc poor the work Is
slow. Il is thought the stock yards in
the east end Of Wheeling can DO fitted
m so as to handle the cattle quickly:
load and unload them and then ship
them directly east. without having to go
through the operation again before they
reach their destinations.
Pittsburgh. II Is stated has been un-
able to handle all OF thr cattle that are
brought through and for this reason
many trains were unloaded at Bepwood.

Mooring sad the field workers of the income tax depart ment who have been assisting individuals and corporations in preparing their re- turns and in irrstructing all persons about the operation. will be assigned the task of examining the books and records of all corporations subject to other taxes, especially franchise taxes.
 The tax commission is determined to in- spect the books of all corporations The work has already started in Birmingham and Montgomery and will be carried on until all counties are visited. The vast amount of wnkk may be seen when 1t is known that Y. E.1akes three hours to look over the books of a small corporation and often takes a day to inspect the records of a large one.
 Great increases are already being shown in franchise tax reports and the com mission believes this work will place a large amount in the state treasury.
