 One of the greatest personal tri- umphis the American stage ever knew was registered by "Joe" Jefferson who, in "Rip Van Wrinkle" made the name a household word. But that success, great through it was, is as nothing compared with what Thomas Jefferson. his son, has done in bring ing "Rip" to the screen.

DEFENDANT IS MISSING.
Two Daughters of Principals In
Divorce Case are Absent.

When the divorce case of Mrs. Flor
inc Louis against George x Louis was
called for trial in the second division
of the Shawnee county district court,
Monday, it was discovered that not
only the defendant, who had prepared
to fight the action with a cross petit
ton, was missing but the two small
daughters of the principals as well.
At the same time Paul Edgar, at
torney for Louis, received telegram,
from his client. He was in Chicago
but wanted to let Edgar know that he
would send his fee by mail. The mes
sage did not mention the two children
but it is believed that they are in Chi
cago with him. With receipt of the
message, Edgar asked for a continu-
ance of the case but Judge Whitcomb
ruled that Louis had little standing
in his court and ordered the trial to
proceed.
After Mrs. Louis had filed her suit
for a divorce in October, 1920, the
court issued an order placing the two
children, Christina, now 5, and Fiorine.
now 8, in the custody of Mrs. Maggie
Mormans, sol East Fifth street.
Louis appeared there Sunday after
noon and asked to take the children to
one of the city parks which was grant
ed. Neither he nor the children have
been seen since and 1t is reported they
left at o'clock Sunday afternoon for
Chicago. Louis took no extra clothing
and all the children have is what they
had on when they left the Mormans
home Sunday. afternoon.
Attic Louis violated a court order
in taking the children away. Judge
George H. Whitcomb finally continued
the case to give him a chance to ap-
pear, but not until after the evidence
of the plaintiff had been submitted.
Mrs. Louis charged her husband was
guilty of desertion and non-support
and in his cross petition, Louis ac-
cuses her of receivig attention from
other men. Mrs. Louis is a waitress
employed at the Cremerie restaurant.

Washington, Sept. 2o.-Labor will

the agenda of the conference on unem-
ployment which will assemble here
next Monday.

eight delegates who have accepted in
vitations. there is no labor representa-
ton on the advisory economic council
which will shape the course of the con-
ference.
The council is to furnish the keynote
for the conference. Its deliberations
will be shaped, very largely along the
lines indicated by the data and charts
compiled by this group of experts who
are making a study of various fields
of industry.
Despite labor's absence from the
advisory council. its representation in
the general conference is streng. Or
ganized labor's five members will be
able to exert more potent. influence
than any other single group or indus
try.
When the conference is organized
Monday, it will be divided into special
committee, to consider the different
angles of idleness and what may be
done to reduce it. Each one of the
committees will seek to agree upon
practical emergency measures that
may be taken later to employers, local
authorities or civic bodies, in lessening
unemployment. Attention also will be
steps industrial leaders can follow to
speed up business and industry, and
thereby bring more speedy absorption
of the surplus labor supply.
