MOONLIGHT FOLLIEs-

Marie Provost. the new universal
star and former bathing queen,
comes to the Gem Theatre on New
Years night Sunday in the first
of her starring photoplays Moon
light Foliies.
The story is an adoption for the
screen by A. ?. Younger of an or
iginal manuscript, The Butterfly
by the we'll kown author Percival
Wilde.
King Baggot, the foremost pion.
eer actor of filmdom, who has re-
Gently assumed directorial post
at Universal City, was in charge of
the filming Of Moonlight Follies. .
Each one of the cast was care
fully chosen for dramatic ability
and aptitude for their roles. Clyde
Fillmore, a popular leading man
of stage and screen, plays the part
Of Anthony Griswold who cares
nothing about women or love
Lionel Belmore the famous curly
headed character actor. gives an
excellent protrayal of the pompous
over benevolent father. while Geo
Fisher and Marie Crisp give very
creditable interpretations to the
remaining roles
As Nan Rutledge, the spoiled nil
lion dollar darling, Marie Provost
shows finesse to her acting tai
ents that will startle even her most
ardent admirers.
Nan is a socian butterfly. More
than that, she is an atural-born
vamp. All her talents are directed
in that one direction
Marriage Oh. never. But Old
papa Rutlcdge thinks otherwise
and informs his care-free darling
that it is high time she were mar
rying and becoming settled.
"All right. dad, I'll marry the
man he's got such nice noce
and Nan Rutledge chose as her
husband to be, am an whomn she
had never seen BEFORE Anthony
Griswold a woman hater.
Moonlight Follies' shows what
the summer moon in the suburbs
did for Nan Rutledge and Anthony
Gfiswold.

SAWVILLE JURY FINDS
MANSLAUGHTER VERDICT

The jury engaged in the trial
of Tony Sawville of Wall for the
murder of young man named
Parr ON the night Of the 7th Of
last July brought in verdict of
guilty of manslaughter in the Sc
cond degree last Friday The trial
had occupied two weeks Of the
courts time, and was one of the
most bitterly contested in recent
years in Pennington county.
The jury on the first ballot stood
ten for acquital and two for con
viction of murder, so the man
slaughter verdict was reached al
ter eight hours deliberation as a
compromise. The state insisted
upon a murder verdict and the ex-
treme penalty of life sentence
in the penitentiary, and the YER
dict is generally regarded as a vic--
tory for the defendant. This es-,
Decially in view of the fact that
the jury coupled with its verdict
recommendation for feniency lii
the sentence. The maximum PEN
atty allowed under the law is four
years in the penitentiary and a
fine of one thousand dollars.
The case was in every sense Of
the word dramatic. Neither the
defendant nor his wife, who was
actively assisting the prosecution,
went upon the stand, the wife be-
cause the law did not allow her
testimony against her husband,
and the husband on account of
the general course Of his defense.
And back of the case lay the omf-
nous cloud of domestic tragedy
which eliminated in the killing.
Buel and Denu and Philip and
Waggoner were the attorneys for
the defendant, and the prosecution
was represented by States Attorney
Elton Stanley and John Heffron
Of Deadwood.

A REMARKABLE EXPERIENCE

Last Friday morning news came
to Philip that Ralph Vandercook,
of Fort Pierre, well known here
land republican candidate for the
Legislature from this district, had,
with companion, been drowned
/ in the Missouri river. Although
his companion was not known in
Philip. Mr.. Vandercook is so gen
orally known and so favorably res
pected, that the news of his death
brought a distinct shock to the
community. The fact was not
| questioned. The sub-editor of this
paper went so far as to write an
obituary, extolling the many good
qualities Of his departed friend,
and had the news come on Thurs
day instead Of Friday,>it most like
Ily would have appeared in print.

Didn't your church, give any treat
TO the children" , 1t came from
several who expected the commit
tee for the treat to take up the
usual collection among the busi-
ness firms of the community. The
simple reason is that our Sunday
School was in such good financial
condition that we did not feel at
| liberty to ask those who so freely
give to every good cause. Yet we
had a treat and good one. And
in addition when the matter of
the suffering of Europe was pres
ented to the audience. an offering
was taken and, enough placed in
the little ships to send two barrels
Of -four to the starving.
1t is nothing Jess than remark
able the way the people rally to
the support Of good causes when
presented To their attention. 1t
was with personal appreciation
that we learned that the friends
Of the last dance given in Philip
saw to it that the moonshine and
sinners were kept away and that a
polite and gentlemanly evening re-
suited. We hope the next dance will
be provided with the same precau-

MIXTURES TO KILL INSECTS
Combination Of Gasoline, Crude Car.
boIic Acid and Plaster Paris
10 Effective.

A satisfactory homemade mixture
to kill lice on poultry consists Of three
parts Of gasoline and one part of
crude carbolIc acid with as much plas-
ter of paris as the liquids will mois-
ten.
The material is allowed to dry q
few hours and then placed in air
tight containers. The mixture has
been tried out at the Ohio experiment
station.
The powder should not be mixed
or placed near a flame. 1t is neces-
sary to hold the fowl while busting
In order to work the dust into the
feathers thoroughly. Ten pounds Of
the mixture will treat 250 mature
birds.
Mercurial ointment or "blue but
ter'' has been found valuable for
killing head lice frequently found on
little chicks. Mercurial ointment is a
stiff substance, and should be mixed
with one or two parts vaseline to ap-
ply it easily.
A bit of the mixture the size Of a
pea applied with the tip of the finger
and rubbed into the feathers about
the head will destroy the lice. 1t
should not be used too freely.

DIFFERENT KINDS OF GEESE
Of Large sixe-Emdsn and Chi
nese Are Liked.

The Toulouse is the giant Of the
geese family. 1t is native Of France.
Its ordinary weight is from Is to 20
pounds, but it is not uncommon to
find specimens weighing from 25 to 80
pounds. This Is the typical gray goose.
but beneath and behind these body
feathers are white areas in the plu-
mage.
1t is said by those who have had
experience with this breed that young
geese during tho. first year lay from
Is to 25 eggs, when older they may
lay from Is to 40.
The Emden is popular breed in
some places. The bodies Of the birds
are snowy white, the legs and bills
yellow. They have good type and
conformation. In size it is the same
as standard for the Toulouse, though
It is said smaller number of EN-
den reach this standard than the Tou-
louise.
The Emden, when well bred, prop
erly fed and prepared, makes a car
cass that sells well on the market.
But 1t is said that many breeders In
this country have not given much at
tention to fine quality.
There are two varieties Of Chinese
geese, Brown and White. This breed
has different characteristics from the
others mentioned. The birds stand
more erect and have longer and slen-
derer necks than the others. The
Brown Chinese have at the base Of
the bill a peculiar rk-colored knob.
The Brown is considered the most
prolific of all the geese. The stand

to lay from 40 to so eggs. sometimes
more. A large per cent Of the eggs
are generally fertile.
The African is not at all common
In this country. The color Of this
breed is dark gray on the back and
light beneath. There is dark stripe
on the neck that extends well down
the back. The bill is black and has
knob something like that Of the
Brown Chinese.
The color Of the eggs Is orange.

GIVE CHICKENS EARLY FEED
Excellent Plan to Have Some Grain
Scattered In Litter Ready for
Their Breakfast.

II there is reasonable amount OF
litter on the floor and the house is rat
proof, it is a practical plan to feed 80
that there will be some grain left In
the litter overnight. This will be an
inducement to the hens to get to work
as soon as 1t is daylight. That's one
practical and inexpensive method OF
prolonging the day. AS a rule, hens
like to go to the perches rather early
In the evening on cold days, but they
will be down at dawn If they know
that they will find something to eat.
See to it that some grain Is there In
the litter ready for them. This is an
easier and pleasanter method than
getting around to do the feeding be-
fore daylight. If the hens loaf on the
perches until broad daylight one OF
two things is wrong: Either the
house is too dark or the hens are over
fed. Either condition Is readily cor
rected and 1t will be dollars in your
pocket to do so.

TUBERCULOSIS IN CHICKENS
Disease Is Quite Common and 10
Caused by Quarters Being Poorly
Ventilated and Lighted.

Tuberculosis in poultry results in a
loss Of weight. The birds may look
all right for time. but they will be
found to be light Mr.. Barton, Of the
North Dakota Agricultural college.
states that in the later stages the birds
become weak, often they cannot ny
onto the roosts, but sit in corner.
and after a little die. According to
Mr.. Barton, this disease is quite COM
mon, Affecting turkeys as well as
chickens. One way to tell If the birds
have tuberculosis is to cut them open.
If the bird is light in weight and the
liver is enlarged and spotted 1t may
be quite safe to say that it has been
suffering from tuberculosis.
He states that small quarters, poor
ly ventilated, poorly lighted, and damp
are conducive to the spread of the dis
ease. The best remedy is to dispose
Of all Infected birds and If the flock Is
badly infected to dispose Of all the
birds; then thoroughly clean the
house and yards, disinfect and start
over again with tuberculosis-free
birds. Mr.. Barton recommends dis
infectant made up In the ratio Of one
ounce of creolin and one ounce Of car
bolic acid to one gallon of water
