ANNETTE kELLERMAN
CALLS SWIMMING BEST
EXERCISE FOR WOMEN

Several million persons through
out the world have seen Annette Kel-
lerman, the star of William Fox's
production beautiful, "a Daughter of
the Gods" now showing at the Rialto
Theater, perform her artistic SWIM
ming feats in dramatic enterprises and
vaudeville. Throughout the world her
name stands for beauty, daring and
skill.
All women know of her as possess
sor of the most perfect figure. But all
the beauties of her body are not nat
ural endowments from the time of her
birth. They are self-created. Hard
work, life in the open, life in the water
and close contact with nature produced
the splendid physical specimen known
as Annette Kellerman.
Miss Kellerman was born in Aus
tralia. She was the frailest and most
delicate of infants. Her parents had
no hope of raising her. On the day of
her birth She was so tiny - that her

quart pot and there was still room to
spare in the measure.
Naturally the childhood of such a
diminutive youngster kept her family
in constant dread. But nature pro-
vided a remedy.
Miss Kellerman feels that the great
est of all exercises is swimming She
considers it the greatest muscle build
ed, the finest nerve building force and
the least dangerous of all sports
Swimming she ranks as the best of all
natures own mild stimulants and, for
women, the surest of all forms of ply
sical condition.
At the age of Is Miss kellerman
set up new figures for swimming
10 hours and SO minutes. A few years
later she swan thirteen and one half
miles in the Thames in three hours
fifty-four minutes and sixteen seconds.
In the championship of France, an
| eight mile swim in the Seine, she took
third after a thrilling neck-andneck
contest.

SMALL FARMS THE THING

We have long advocated the wisdom
of encouraging the owning of small
farms, for in that situation, we believe
Hes the greatest prosperity of the
country. And it is with pleasure we
note the tendency toward small farms.
Quite number of our advertisers
nave been real estate dealers, and a
striking thing about the offering of
the various agents for selling land is
that almost invariably the offer is
made: sold asa whole or cut I'm into
small tract Thus it frequently hap
pens that large tract of land is sold
TO number of parties, each one hav-
ing the purpose in view of owning q
small 1arm and occupying it, The day
OF the big landed estate is fast an
preaching its close, we believe. The
mounting taxes, when applied to vast
tracts of land, will become more and
more burdensome to the owners. for
IL is seldom such unimproved lands
give their owners any considerable
returns. 1t is going to be increasingly
dlfhcult to hold lands that are not pro-
ductive. And it is going to be bless
ing to the country. Small farms, null
tiplied, spell progress.

kAPP HAS RESIGNED
IS HUN DICTATOR
DECLARES TOOK STEP TO AVOID
PLUN0lNC COUNTRY INTO
HANDS OF REDS.
After Holding Reins Of Power for Less
Than Five Days, self-Appointed
Chancellor and Dictator Retires,
Declaring Mission Fulfilled.

Berlin.--The revolution In Germany
seems to be drawing to a close. After
holding the reins of power for less
than five days, DR.. WOlfgang Kapp,
the self-appOinted chancellor and die
tator, has retired from office and con-
troll. He resigned on March II, and
an official communication explained
the chancellor considered his mission
fulfilled when the old government de-
cided to meet the most essential de-
mands addressed to 1t. He was also
moved to this action by the extreme
necessity Of the fatherland, which de-
manded union against the dangers of
BOlshevism.
The government of Friedrich Ebert,
the Socialist president of the German
republic, was overthrOwn on March ID.
DR.. Wolfgang Kapp was at the head
of the movement, which 1t Is generally
believed was backed by the former
kaiser and the former crown prince of
Germany.
Many lives have been lost as a result
vi uSuliuS Which HAS SAOiiOVSN sAAS
overthrow of the Ebert government,
and Germany faces one of the most
serious conditions since the signing of
the armistice.
The real circumstances Of Kapp's re-
tirement are still shrOuded In mystery.
An important factor undoubtedly Is to
be found In the deliberations of the
undersecretaries and imperial council
which Major General Won Luettwitz at
tended. The views of this conference
were that both Kapp and Won Luett.
WITT withdraw in order to terminate
an intolerable position.
Won Luettwitz agreed to this, but
when he returned to the chancellOry
ne allowed himself to be persuaded tc
change his mind and retain office. To
him has been delegated the executive
power by the former revolutionary
chancellor, and 1t is difficult to say
what will happen now that Won Luett
witz remains the military dictator al
Berlin.
Orders for the arrest of DR.. Wolf
gang Kapp, who assumed control OF
German governmental affairs In Berlin
on March 10; General Won Luettwitz
his military lieutenant, and other lead
ers in the reaetionary revolt have beer
issued by Gustav NOske, minister Of
defense Of the Ebert government.
1t 10 reported that Gustav Noske
minister Of defense In the old (Ebert)
government is coming here, and VOr
Luettwitz perhaps will transfer hi'
new found authority to him.
Although the general strike dealt this
government mortal blow, the decisive
fact is that Knapp and his supporters
had no political prestige, their gov
| eminent built only ON machine guns.

WANTS CHANGE IN TAX LAWS
Secretary Houston Declares Govern
ment Must Suffer Huge Losses.

Secretary Houston Declares Govern
ment Must Suffer Huge Losses.
Observation-Disclosures and excess
profits taxes cannot be reduced until
after 1922, Secretary Houston wrote
the house ways and means committee,
on March II, urging an immediate
simplification of the taxes and substi-
tuition of a flat tax on gross profits in
stead Of the graduated rates of 20
and 40 per cent.
Immediate losses to the government
under the supreme court decision that
stock dividends are not taxable will
approximate $1O5,OOO,OOO, the letter
stated. Mr.. Houston added, however,
that the ultimate loss would be only
100000, as much of the original loss
would be regained through the sale Of
stocks and subsequent taxes on them.
The secretary estimated that $35, OOO,-
600 collected in 1918 would have to be
refunded and $4,000, 900 would be lost
on 1919 taxes.
