"LADIES MUST LIVE" AT RIvoLr

Ladies Must Live" the last screen
production made by the late George
Loane Tucker, creator of ''The Miracle
Man," and with Betty Compson in the
leading role, has been selected by
Hugo Riesenfeld for presentation at
the Rivoli Theater in New York dur
ing the week beginning Sunday, No
vember Is. Miss Compson, it will be
recalled, won her first great public APP
probation in Mr.. fuckers '"The Mira
Gle Man," in which she played Oppo-
site Thomas Meighan, and she was
chosen again by the famous producer
for Ladies Must Live" the film which
he finished just before he died.
The picture took twenty months to
create and is said to be masterpiece.
1t was adapted by the producer from
Alice Duer Millers story and tells of
the "lilies" of society, Of the silken
darlings of the cities-how they live
and how they settle the bill which the
world presents.

FATHER FINDS MISSING SON
After a Long Search Latter Was
Discovered In the Oil Fields.

A search of ten years Of a father
for his son ended in Augusta, KAN,
the other day, when II. @. Perkins
found his son, Elmer Perkins, who is
employed in the Fox-Bush field.
Ten years ago the Perkins family
living in Blue Jacket, Okla, had diff
ficulties, and Mrs. Perkins took the
boy, then eleven years of age, and left
the Perkins home in Blue Jacket,
Okla, and went to reside with rel
atives In Washington, Ind.
The father heard nothing from
them and did not even know of their
whereabouts. The mother died in the
meantime and the boy left the home
of his relatives and struck out for
himself.
He went to the Burkburnett oil
fields and worked for a time, then
went to the Breckenridge fields and
finally drifted to the Fox-Bush field.
The father also followed the call of
the oil field and worked in the Ranger
and Breckenridge fields and then went
to Ell Dorado and worked for short
time.
The father came down to Augusta
several days ago to visit some friends
in the FoX-Bush field and was intro
duced to his son. The names being
the same the father questioned the
now husky young man and after an
hour or so Of questioning Mr.. Perkins
found that he had at last found his
son.
The two will leave in few days
for visit with relatives. in Indiana
and will then return to their work in
the oil fields here.

WOMAN HUNTER KILLS DEER
Brings Down Large Buck at Her
First Shot.

Mrs. G. f. Earls of Albany, Ore,
attained a distinction recently which
few men, say nothing of women, can
enjoy, in that she killed a deer with
the first shot she ever fired at one.
Probably few, if any, women have
killed deer thus far in the open
season in Oregon.
Mrs. Earls killed a 170-pound buck
while hunting with her husband and
other Albany men in Douglas county
about forty miles from Roseburg. She
was on stand on the side Of cam
yon and saw the deer on the other
side of the canyon about 200 yards
away. She says she was not nervous
but aimed deliberately and shot the
animal through the heart.

OUSTED BY BRITISH, is
MAN WITHOUT COUNTRY
Or. Levy, Pro-AlIy During War,
Forced to Leave England Under
Alien Restrictions Act.

A man without country or citizen
ship. Such is the tragic plight Of Dr.
Oscar Levy, publicist and author.
DIR. Levy, as a person of German
birth, has received notice to leave
England. This step is taken by the
home Office under the aliens restric-
ton act of 1919.
DR.. Levy was pro-Ally during the
war. He has lost his German nation
atty because he has lived In this
country since 1894, and has therefore
nowhere to go with his wife and
daughter.
DR.. Levy, who was the official
translator Of Nietzche, the German
philosopher, into English, is at the
present time lying seriously i'll.
The home office case Is that no
former enemy alien" under the act
is permitted to remain in England
more than three months unless an ex-
tension is granted. Residence in
England before the war does not ex-
cept DIR. Levy from the act and
there are no special grounds for allow
ing him to remain.
The work done during the war by
DR.. Levy was in tracing British prison
ers in Germany. He was always
enthusiastically pro-British and anti
German. He left this country in 1915
for Switzerland, and remained In
Geneva until April, 1920, when he re-
turned by permission Of the British
legation at Berne.
The last published writings Of DR..
Levy were in preface Of book, "The
World Significance Of the Russian
Revolution" In this, as Jew, he
said:
1--WE who have posed as the saviors
Of the world are today nothing else
but its destroyers. We who have
promised to lead you to new heaven
have finally succeeded in landing you
into q new hell"

STARLINGS DISLIKE WAR
Birds Flee as Soldiers Come to Gar
den City, but Return Now.

Starlings ought to attend the arma-
ment limitation conference en- masse.
for they have demonstrated to the
people Of Garden City, N. Y, that they
dislike war.
When in 1917 the soldiers came
tramping down to Camp Miles and the
flying fields around Mineola, the birds
imported from England twenty years
before, fed. They stayed away until
Miles was abandoned and the flying
fields became less active.
Now they are back, nesting in the
spire Of the Garden City cathedral and
making Hampstead plains echo with
their chatter.
