BROTHERS ARE
 SPEED DEMONS
 ON CINDER
(By Associated Press)


 BOSTON, June 14-Ray s. Buker the sturdy runner from Bates college, who surprised the sport world by winning the two-mile international race at the Penn relay carnival in 1 9.25 2-5, is one of four brothers who have been active in Bates college athletics during the past five years. In reviewing his work after the relay victory Trainer Ryan of Colby college, stated that Buker's possibili- ties as a distance runner were we'll known to close followers of distance running who have seen him per 1 form during the past two years. He 1 had one fault which prevented him quickly, his early pace was far too slow. But now that he has learned to go out and follow a faster pace and with the help of more competi- tion, Buker seems to be capable of far better tWo-mile performance than he showed at the Penn relays. 1 Buker has twin brother Richard 1 (captain of the Bates college track team) who, also is some runner. Richard is the present Maine inter- collegiate half-mile champion which honor he won in two minutes flat at the championships held in Lewiston last year and he should win in his speciality again this year in better time. He is capable, of running the half-mile in 1.57.
 The Buker twins cut quite a swath in cross-country running in New Eng land On account of their fine work last fall Bates college won the Maine state cross country champion ship and finished second to Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology in the New England title run held in Franklin park, Boston,
 In the Maine run, Ral finished first with Captain Richard second over the Bowdoin college course at Brunswick and in the New Eng land title run Ray won first place and Richard finished seventh in 8 field of about 100 starters.
 Ray and Richard B. Buker look so much alike that even their closes friends cannot tell them apart ant . about the only one in the world i that knows when he is addressing Ray without first asking is Richard | They are natives of New Hampshir, and prepared for college at Noun Il Hermon. Richard is senior a Bates and is preparing to enter tn, Il ministry, while Ray is a junior ant H preparing for the medical profession They are both first-class student, and filled up to the brim with con fidence in themselves.

STEAMSHIPS .... ......
 WASHINGTON, June 14.-Another step toward insuring travellers on interstate carriers against the evils of polluted drinking water has been taken by the health department, the laws already in force in regard to railway trains being extended with necessary notifications, to steamships on lakes and rivers and between United States ports and ports of adjacent countries.
 HeOceforward water used on such vessels for drinking or cooking must be obtained on shore from a source approved by the U. S. public health service, usually acting in co.opera.

And now the first thing that meets my eye when I get the script 70 my new story. is the fact that the opening scene shows the heroine in a periloIs ride on a runaway horse
 And that's just one of the many hazards I will have to perform for the sake of realism In my last two pictures. The Marriage of William Ashe.' and Are Wives 10 Blamc2' was called upon to wear quite eizlb- ora1e-at any rate. very good looking gowns and nearly every one Of them was worn in a scene that meant utter wreck to them And now. my new picture. Big Game starts me or with a wild ride at brea5<neck speed and maybe I will break my neck at it. And that's not the least Of the tricks I will perform during the course of production on this story. Nearly all the action takes place in inc North west Canadian woods. and after my race on the horse. I will go to the Canadian backxoods and have a race with a dog team"

CONSTANCE BINNEY HAS SURE CURE FOR THE BLUES

"Oh, I had the most violent attack of the blues this morning." confided . adorable little Constance Binney to me as we sat at a tea table in one of New York's incest hotels.
 "Blues? Why. you look as if you hadn't been seeing anything for days ! but rosy pink skies and bright sun- , shine,'' I said.
 "Wen. Pm really not a bit blue ' any more. I have the most wonder ful cure for the blues. No sooner do | I get them (and you know every blessed soul gets them once in a while) we'll, presto, change, they're gone! Like that! Snapping her dainty little fingers to give me an idea of how quickly the indigo shade became tinged with a roseate hue.
 What is this wonderful remedy for .rhe universal sickneSS?" I asked. ! Everybody'll want to try it. "Oh. it's an easy enough cure" she tcontinued, balancing a cup of tea in one hand and a cooky in the other !"All you have to do is to go out and buy yourself some brand new clothes Now, isn't that a simple remedy?' i"Simple enough if you have the ,wherewithal to buy the clothes,'' re- piled.
 ''Oh, but you don't have to spend j11eaps of money. Just buying a bit ot iribbon will make you forget you ever had the blues. A cure for the blue:

HOLD UP PICTURE TO WISH BRIDE
 AND GROOM LUCK

Prima donnas with high notes have no corner on temperament.
 Buck Jones, William Fox star, and his outfit were ready to take some of the scenes in "The Big Punch." new est Buck Jones picture now in the making, when the cowboys discov- cred that Mesquite Murphy was missing Then it was that a camera man whispered that Mesquite had rented a cottage on the outskirts of Hollywood, and had moved in the night before
 "Hes sure got married" decided Canada" Henry. Buck ones foreman, and we'd better go up there"
 There was a nasty saddling of horses and much glee among the pIainsmen. At this juncture Jack Ford, director, explained he was go- ing to shoot some street scenes and would need the horses.
 You can't hold 'em," said Buck Jones. Its cowboy custom to visit a. new bride and groom. we'll have to wait"
 In great glee the outfit rode away. They found the missing "Mesquite'' in the cotta ge, wished him good luck kissed the bride, a young woman just arrived from Oregon, and were back on location before the director had time to get real mad.

is only a matter of forgetting what you're blue about. And I don't know of any better way for a woman to forget her troubles than by shopping. Women love to shop and they'll take just as much time and interesS m Duy- ing a, bit of ribbon as they will in buying a fur coat.
 "I don't know anything quite so effective as a bit of new clothing for cheering up a woman's spirits. II may be a new hat or a pair of stock
 ings-or almost anything that will
 make you feel a bit better and
 smarter dressed. Whenever I fee
 low in spirits I just go out and buy something new to wear. It's a sure
 cure for the blues. You forget all
 about having ever been depressed ir
 the search for your bit of finery- even though you don't find it-and if you do, in the pleasure of wearing it.
 ''But I won't have much time fol shopping now for I've started work on my next picture. The tentative title is "The Magic Cup'' and it's { splendid story. John Robertson i: directing it so I know it'll be good He's a wonder''
 As I left her she called after me 1 Don't forget my recipe for chasing i those blues-iust buy yourself som, | brand new clothes" And so I pas ] the advice on to you.

BY A. G. JACKSON. (Bridgeporr Times Stan Writer,


 We have heard a great deal of dis cussion about fat men ever since GiI- bert K Chesterton dragged his bulky carcass into town Being of a naturally inquisitive mind, we dropped into Poii's last evening to analyze the success or failure of another celebrated heayyweisht. Fatty Arbuck1e, who was presented in The Life of the Party" which was written by still another heavyweight Irwin S. Cobb. After watching Fatty go through his paces. we came to the conclusion that the question of lean ness or fatness isn't so important. after all, provided the fat Is not con- centrated around the ears.
