One would naturally expect from
Won Strohcim exact reproductions of
the Casino at Monte Carlo, the Hotel

other outstanding features of the pic

that any one scrutinzing the entire
film with microscope shall be unable
to find the slightest flaw in any detail.

the scenes of the Hotel de Paris at
Monte Carlo are embroidered with che

This gorgeous fowl Is called tho
"ocellated" turkey-referring TO tho
"eyes" above mentioned. Having been
hunted by the aborgines for centuries.
it has become extraordinarily shy and
difficult to approach. Yet, say tho
naturalsts, It is not, like our own wild
turkey, a denizen of forests. but rather
| a frequenter of the edges of clearingS
and of such places as the borders OF
corn fields. Hence, in all likelihood, it
would prove susceptible of dom estlca-
ton.
! 4 number of these remarkable tur-
keys have recently been imported into
our own country with the idea OF
| crossing them with the farmyard va
riety. If this is successfully accom-.
| plished a bird with a new and perhaps
superior game flavor may become
available for future Thanksgiving
dinners.
Turkey Dinners For Wild Beasts
The early Spanish invaders found III
| Mexico dom esticated turkeys of the
breed now so familiar to ourselves
which were kept and bred by Monte
yuma to feed the jaguars, pumas and
other carnvorous animals in the Won
derful geological garden maintained by
| that monarch as an appanage Of his
royal state. They supposed them to be
! kind of peacock and as such described
| them in letters written to folks at
I home. If they had ever seen the
"ocellated" turkey Gas apparently they
! had not), its likeness to the peacock
would have struck them much more
forcibly.
If tradition lies not. the first occa-
sion on which the great American bird
was served as a table delicacy in Eu-
rope was at the wedding of Charles
IX, in the year 1870.
Before long it spread over the farm
yards OF all Europe. At first it was
popularity supposed to come from
! Turkey-a little known and more or
less mysterious part Of the world.
whence anything previously unheard
of might naturally be thought to have
emanated-and hence the name by

william Farnum
William Farnum's director has the
same fault to find with him that his
mother found when he was a very little
chap and that is--hshing. His mother
used to try TO keep him away from
the schoolhouse pond and do his les
sons, but even the promise of fresh
cooked doughnuts couldn't lure him
home straight from school. Instead.
he would arrive home somewhere
about dinner time with a string of
minnows which he would proudly de-
clare could be fixed for breakfast in
the morning.
Nowadays, whenever Farnum has a
vacation, he leaves for favorite camp

content and doesn't even let his direc-
tor know his Whereabouts. This al
most made nervous wreck Of his
director, j. Gordon Edwards, when

were necessary. and as Farnum was
away nothing could be done. Even
the largest tuna ash ever caught on
the Pacific coast couldn't compensate
Edwards for the nervous strain he
