1t Is generally admitted that the
stimulation of foreign trade is one
of the. things greatly needed in our
present business depression. Slim
ulation of foreign trade to most
people means trade with Europe,
because of our export trade about
so per cent has been with that
grand division. Until economic and
political questions in Europe be-
come more settled, 1t is almost hope
less to look for any great improve
ment there. 1t would seem that our
best chances for immediate develop
ment are in other parts of the
world, and in this connection it is
worth while to look over our pros
poets near at home.

"The Country Cousin"

Scheduled for day presentation at the Lyric theatre today the new Selznick picture. The Country Cou. sin,,' in which beautiful Elaine Ham, merstein is starred, is said to carry even a deeper appeal than did the stage play which earned not only the lasting appreciation Of the general public. but also brought forth words Of praise from President Wilson and the late Theodore Roosevelt. After he had seen the play Roosevelt said: "'The Country Cousin is first-class American play" When viewed by President and Mrs. Wilson, the na- tion's chief executive expressed him. self as having had much pleasure and said that Mrs. Wilson and him. self particularly admired the play both because of the simplicity, sin cerity and dignity" in which it was presented and because there had been done something thoroughly worth doing"
 In its filming as Selznick picture the famous play of Booth Tarkington and Julian Street has received some sympathetic and colorful dramatic tre5 ment to enhance its worth as an inter st-holding story typical of Am eriCan life today

 It is a dangerous thing for a man to bring home a daily paper with an item clipped out His wife will not ice that column and that spot in the column immediately.

 That does not satisfy her. Sh

 The other reason is that wo have light to'be interested in what mani l festly has interested someone else Someone must have thought that . good item, or he would not have gone to the trouble of cutting it out. It is a fair assumption that that item wa the best thing there was in the paper. There is in Springfield, III. a sin 1 gle file of a paper which has been published continuously in that city | since the days of Abraham Lincoln It was originally the office file, and now it is in the State Historical Lib 1 rary.

Never has Viola Dana had part affording her greater opportunity to display her irrepressible charm than in "The Chorus Girls Romance, which begins its run at the Eagle Theatre Friday and Saturday and Gen. tral Theatre Sunday.
 IL might be added that there are other chances provided by the story. which is adapted from the fiction or F. Scott Fitzgerald. and published or iginally in The Saturday Evening Post under the title Of Head and Shoulders" The second chance Miss Dana has is to shimmy. As the lead ing woman in a musical comedy first nighting in New Haven. the little star is called upon to cause her shoulders to be Agitated in that peculiarly mod ern and provocative manner which has been labelled the shimmy. And those who have had advance views oi Viola'S most recent picture gay she does.
 Chief in support of Miss Dana is Garreth Hughes, as Horace TarboX the scholarly prodigy of Yale and the other half of the romance. Others prominent in the cast are Phil Aims worth.
