FRIDAY

s'The Paliser Case" is an intense, sus-
,pense-laden mystery drama which deals
with the life of trusting girl who is be-
trayed by fake marriage to an unscrup-
Sulous roue and finds herself in the tolls of
justice when the latter is mysteriously
murdered. Suspicion rests also on others
and the third degree is applied with msfc-
less determination until justice locates
the murderer. The elemental emotions,
the great moments of establishment and
despair of this moving drama are por-
srayed by the star as only Pauline Fred
erick knows how. See this Goldwyn
production-and try to guess the end.
We don't think you will be able to do so.

The Prince of Wales and Princess
Yolanda first met during the war, when
the prince was serving with the Brt-
ish forces on the Italian front and the
princess was engaged in war work with
the soldiers. They saw each other
ern Italy, behind the battle lines, and
the report soon reached London that
they had become close friends. After
the armistice, when the prince returned
to London, he dined at the Italian
Embassy here, together with Lloyd
George. At the time this was regarded
as significant, in view of the fact that
the Premier is always consulted on do
nestle matters that affect the crown
and it was suggested that possibly the
marriage question was discussed at
this private dinner party.
The fact that the prince is of the
Roman Catholic faith is not considered
an impossible barrier, despite the rul-
ing Of the royal marriage act. Such
WaIElHBc rs WltHcut cAdSt pIeCeuSHe,
but it is pointed out that the war has
altered the European situation so that,
in view of so highly desirable mar
riage, the technicalities of the royal
marriage act could be avoided 1t is
said that if the princess would give up
her religion and accept that of the
Church of England the marriage could
be arranged satisfactorily. A prece-

ing to the tradition that has come
down from the feudal Middle Ages,
will pay their taxes to him in kind,
the produce of the land, and to-day
he received the first of these historic
offerings, pair of greyhounds, from
one of the Cornish peerage.
AS he passes through the country
side hundreds of dark-haired, dark
eyed Cornish girls will smile and
courtesy to the handsome and gallant
young prince, the soldier, the sports
man, the scion of England's greatness,
who has toured the world to survey
all his dominions. And tonight be-
side the sea coal fires of their little
matched cottages among the hills they
will think long thoughts about the
laughing boy and paint pictures of
Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle
and York Cottage at Sandringham and
wonder whether Cinderella dreams
ever come true.
But in a world of international rela-
tions, balance of power, armies and
ship factories and tangled frontiers
their Prince Charming must live out
his destiny, the crown he will some day
wear
Thus, in Whitehall, the councillors
and ministers read the Almanack de
Gotha, pondering:
"Who is going to marry the Prince
of Wales?"

Red HawkTeaches French
Scouts Science of Nature
American Indian in Paris as
Professor Attracts Atten-
ton i'm Cafes
PARIS, August 10.

fAhlO, August ~.
Paris at present harbors a singular
savant. 1t is Big Hawk, a red Indian
chief, who has come over the great
waters to teach the youth of the
French palefaces new kind of science
of nature. Wrapped in blue and
violet striped blanket, adorned with
his pearl embroidered war plume of
eighty-fve feathers, the red-skinnei
celebrity sat with some English and
American friends in cafe on the
boulevards and reused the interest not
only of the passersby but also of Il
reporter of the Matin, who immedi
invitation of the Boy Scouts, had come
to initiate them into the secrets Of
forest life and nature
But Big Hawk is not an ordinary
Indian as known from the familiar
Indian stories. He was an official of
the American governments Commission
for Indian Affairs, attended Columbia
University and is a scientifically edu-
Gated man. Despite his personal cul-
ture, however, he likes the costume of
his ancestors, and has devoted him
self zealously to the American Boy
Scout organization. He now wants to
show the French youth how Indians
live, to impart to them their calm re-
serve and power of resistance to pain
Entirely in the style of the old IN
dian stories he will instruct them how
to know on the paths and fields, from
footprints and crushec blades of grass,
the traces Of men and animals, and to
build huts and skiffs from logs of
wood; in brief, not modern, but old,
very old, Indian scyences. The red
skinned savant shows great delight in
Paris. He compares the Grand Opera
House to rock and admires especially,
in enthusiastic words, the charming
shoes of the ladies and their wearers.
1t seems to be his desire to create as
little sensation as possible, desire
difficult to realize wnen Big Hawk an
pears in costume discarded long ago
by his congeners.

Relatives of Suffren
Crew Convinced of Fate

PARIS, August 5.
Relatives and friends of the 720 Off
GERS and men who made up the COM
plement of the French cruiser SUI
fren are beginning to give up hope
For nearly five years, during which
time the French Ministry of Marine
has maintained an absolute silence,
these meurners of the Suffren have
attended religious services in the small
cities of the French Atlantic coast
to humble prayers of hope. Though
there is still official silence they are
now beginning to chant prayers for
the dead. Such is the way of the
hardy Breton sailor folk, whose males
have long made up the seafaring men
of France
The Suffren is one of the remain
ing sea mysteries of the European
war. In November, 1915, after long
service with the inter-Allied naval
forces in Near Eastern waters, the
cruiser left Piraus en-. route for Lor.
lent, her home port on the French At
lantic. The homefolks ashore waited
for their men in vain. The cruiser
never arrived.
Because of the bad state of her hail
and boilers the ship made her way

real news is scarce the Eng
lish newspapers content them
selves with startling contro-
versies on "Should Women Spoke in
Public?" "What Is to Become of Our
Surplus Women 2" and similar subjects.
Some of them produce the expected
rise" on the part of the public, and
full of this years crop was letter
written to "The London Times" by one
signing himself cold Etonian," COM
planning of the manners and customs
Of the present-day young men. The
hubbub stirred up by this letter is al
ready in it's third week, and shows no
signs of abating.
"Old Etonian's" complaints were spe-
cihc. The youth Of the present gen
Grafton, he charged:
: Keeps his pipe in his mouth when
talking.
Goes to luncheon in his undergrad
uate clothes and collars.
Does not dress for dinner in town
i. e., London.
Associates with odd friends, and
with the odd friends female compan-
ions.
Plays tennis instead of cricket
Goes to the Eton- Harrow cricket
match in blue serge suit, summer
shirt and straw hat.
This last is the GROWING infamy,
ne plus ultra. The correct attire for
an Eton- Harrow match is a morning
suit and "copper"" and although the
thermometer registers the wholly I'M
precedented London figure of 80 in the
shade, no whit of the regulations may
be relaxed. Titled necks may get just
as hot as those of the proletariat, and
noblemen's collars may wilt, but just
the same the soft collar is taboo.
Youth Rises Wrathfully
En- Masse for Defence
AS was to be expected, modern youth
rose up in wrath against the charges
The quarrel overfowed from 1.-THE
Times" into the two-penny papers, and
finally the popular penny sheets took
it up. "Old Etonian's" contemporaries
launched a counter-attack, which was
met by smoke screen of humorous
comment by the defendants. Editorial
writers took time off from settling the
Silesian question to contribute their
bits to the melee; reporters were sent
to interview prominent personages on
their opinions as to the decadence OIL
non-decadence of the modern young
man; and caricaturists had their fling
81 the whole business.
And London-London read and
laughed!
A young Oxonian who took the orig
inal letter seriously formulated the
following defense for his day and
generations:
I. Pipes in mouths.-"They always
did,"
2. Luncheon in undergraduate
ciothes.--''We used to wear linen col.
lars. but washing is SO expensive now

G. Tennis instead of cricket.-"Ten-

The sheer at tennis drew responses
from lovers of that game.
"If odd Etonian' had seen Lycett
fighting gamely through five sets"
wrote a tennis enthusiast, "helped by
ice water on the back of his neck and
by drafts Of champagne; if he had
put in by Wilding, that amazing ath
lete and apostle of fitness; understood
what it means to play five hard sets
against an even foe on the center court
at Wimbledon, and knew enough about
tennis to appreciate that it is a physi-
cal test of very high order, he would
not have spilled useful ink and wasted
expensive paper"
Oxford Professor Defends
Youth of Generation
Professor Gilbert G.. Bourne, of Ok
ford, also entered the lists on the side
of youth.
"Was there ever o generation" he
asks, passing from middle into old
age, that did not consider that it was
much more strenuous in it's youth than
the boys and young men of the day."
IAN octagenarian' rose to say that
the modern young man was all right;
what was wrong was the modern girl,
"half dressed, loud voiced, cigarette
smoking, bumptious hammered" An
"Old Harrovian" found the explanation
| for the present degeneracy in the lack
of teamplay:
"When I was twenty-five | was in
temporary command of two companies,
was the working member of the mess
committee, captain of our regimental
cricket team, secretary of the station
cricket club and manager of the sta
ton theater, on the same pay as any
other subaltern. My son, aged twenty
two, also a subaltern, but more up to
date, says that that was a mugs game,
and prefers to play golf and tennis
and to lead life in which everything
| is subordinated to his own personal
likes and dislikes, and the reputation
of his corps and his responsibility in
regard thereto count for nothing"
Now, "The Times" having given col
nmns OF space to the controversy, pro-
ceeds gravely to rebuke all concerned
"The generations refuse to learn
from each other" states the Thunder.

cry feared. Our hats and collars and
dances and manners may not deteri-
