Mildred Does Ii Again.

1t just seems that Mildred Harris
Chaplin cannot help hobnobbing
with royalty. She met the king and
queen of Belgium when they visited
the coast studios and her picture
taken with them and corsage just
like the queens n everything. Now
Mildred has danced with the prince
of Wales. Think of it, when that
young man visited the west coast
on his way to Australia he attended
a ball held in his honor and he
danced only six dances. and one of
that precious half dozen was with
Mildren Harris Chaplin. Mildred
is a British subject now, doncher-
no, since she married Mr.. Chaplin,
the acknowledged king of Comedy
land, but that had nothing to do
with the princes choice Of part

suit was brought about by the co-opera-
tive efforts of the United States de-
partment of agriculture and the United
States railroad administration. En-
ployees of the railroad administration
were detailed to the bureau of chem
istry. where they received instruction
in proper methods of loading and
slowing eggs in freight cars. Wher-

employees of the railroad administers

them how properly to load cars to
