hunger for luxury; the first that

SNai ot '''o oNots
IN BLACK Roses, his latest Rob-
ertson.Cole production, Sessue Haya-
kawq, distinguished Japanese star,
is seen for the first time in many
months in photoplay laid entirely
in America. The fact, however, that
the action of the story takes place
IN only one country, does not de-
prize It of any picturesque effect.
The same artistry with which every
Hayakawa production Is invested is
paramount in BLACK Roses which
is at the Sugg theatre on next Fri
day.
During the course Of the produc-
tion Hayakawa is seen in three dis
tinct characterizations, first as
happy-golucky gardner on the estate
of mllionaire next as hardened
victim of circumstances when by
false evidence he is convicted of
murder he never committed, and fl
nally as a Chinese prince moving in
the/highest circles of society where
he succeeds in finding and furnishing
those who were responsible for his
life's tragedy.
In "Black Roses" Mr.. Hayakawa

Seasons Not Changing

The seasons are changing; we do
not have the cold weather we did
when l was boy" Remarks similar
to this are frequently heard by repre-
sentatlves of the weather bureau, De-
partment of Agriculture, but reports
on the weather dating as far back as
1850 show that there has been no
radical change in the mean tempera-
ture from year to year.
Considering the individual months
and the individual years it is found
that the coolest January occurred
eight years after the warmest one.
The coolest March was as late as 1870
and again in 1885. The coolest April
was in 1874 and many years after the
warmest one. The lowest tempera-
ture in May was in 1912, 1915, 1870
and 1882. The highest figures in
June are in 1779, 1870, 1903 and 1876.
In July the lowest was in 1916 with
the warmest as early as 1880 and
equaled in 1876. The coolest August
occurred 81 years after the warmest
one. In September the coolest months
are in the earlier years, but for Oc-
tober, November and December the
coolest year came after the warmest
year in each case.
Thus it will be seen that in nine
months of the year the coolest one of
record occurred after the warmest
one. These figures seem to indicate
very clearly, the weather official says
that since the time of the Revolution
ary war, at least, there has been nc
permanent change in temperature.

SAY TT WITH FLOWERS
URGES DIR. PECK
Baltimore and Ohio Glee
Club Sings

The Sunday Evening service in
Wolf Hall was most enjoyable one.
A concert by the Baltimore and Ohio
Glee Club led by Mr.. Hobart Smock,
preceded a talk by the Reverend DR..
George Clark Peck, of Baltimore.
The musical program was especially
fine consisting Of both religious and
secular songs.
DR.. Peck, owing to the secular ma
ture of the program, took his text
not from the Bible, but he chose the
familiar and expressive line from the
florists shop, "Say it with flowers"
This, DR.. Peck explained, besides be-
ing clever "ad" expresses beauti-
fully deep philosophy. Flowers may
be the emblem of love, joy, pain,
sympathy, of anything except hate
They cannot say that, but they may
say things of exquisite beauty we
dare not put into words.
DR.. Peck believes that we should
speak our appreciation of friendship
whether with flowers, chivalry, tongue
or pen most things ought to be said
