Washington, August 13.-Recent investigations by the United States geological survey are held by it's ex- perts to indicate that in the Rocky mountain states there are enormous quantities of oil shales which can be made to yield hydrocarbon oils to a much greater extent than we can hope to obtain from our oil wells"
 The shades are said to constitute trmendous potential oil reserve.
 The oil shades of this country" says the report. contain enormous quantities of oil, but large amounts of money will have to be invested before the oil shale industry becomes of commercial importance, Estimates by various engineers of the cost of complete restoring plan, handling 900 tons daily, are between $4,o00,- 900 and s5,o0O,000.
 Tn this country the oil-shale in dustry can not be developed over night and probably can not attain success until large sums of money have been spent in perfecting min irg. retorting and refining methods. complete retorting plant, handling be able to employ the best technical, business and engineering skill avail able, be prepared to operate on a large scale, and be financially strong enough to wait several years for any large return on the money invested"

MIDNIGHT RIDERS" FEATURE AT ROYAL
Daring Feats Performed Dur ing Rapid Action of Vest
 ern Drama

"The Midnight Riders" thrilling
 western drama of the Wyoming hills, from the novel by Allen J. Neitz is the big feature attraction booked at the Royal for the first half of the week, while the latest Pathe News and a good comedy will be the added features.
 The Midnight Riders" is said to be an unusual combination of drama and romance, and contains many dar- ing stunts.
 Like everything else, the pace set for the producers of movong pictures is constantly becoming faster and nowhere is this more easly recognized than in the big spectacular produc- tions of western dramas now appear ing on the screen. One or, two hair raising escapes or daredevil leaps for life were once sufficient of the western plains, but now dozen or more are necessary in every picture.
 Much of the success of "The Midnight Riders" is due to the large number of daring feats performed by the actors during the rapid action of the
 drama.
 Among the things which the cast
 of "The Midnight Riders" were called
 upon to do were: A dash on horse
 back down the side Of steep noun
 tain; a horseback leap over yawn-
 ing canyon 60 feet deep; slide or over 100 feet down cliff on a rope;
 a leap from galloping horse 10 d
 swiftly moving coach; 40-foot fall down steep mountain side; danger ous fight between two hardriding
 horsemen; and the fall of stage
 coach, full of actors and actresses,
 over a steep cliff. All of these feats
 and many more were actually per-
 formed before the camera, and 1t IS
 claimed that not one person was
 seriously hurt.

"The Affairs of AnitoI" Will Feature Array of
 Noted Stars

To produce a picture adaptation of "The Affairs of Anitolo has been the dream of Cecil B. DeMille ever since he entered the motion picture field. But the fact that this wonderful drama would call for at least a dozen roles to be performed by act ors of equal rank and talent, DeMille realized the expense, and the fact that the old star" system of over shadowing every character by one star, would forbid reduction.
 With the advent Of the nonstar picture which has been so successful, Cecil DeMille felt that the realiza- ton of his cream was drawing near. But i1 was not untH Paramount de- cide1 definitely upon programme of truly all-star productions that he felt justified in rrcce euing.
 His first step was to have bril- liant screen adaptation of The Af- fairs of AnitoI" made by the talented Jeanne MacPherson. He then ~hose one of the most remarkable casts ever to be shown in any motion pie ture. This remarkable array of stars who will appear in the production are: Wallace Reid, Gloria Swanson, Elliott Baxter, Wanda Hawley, Bebe Daniels, Monte Blue. Agnes Ayres, Theodore Roberts, Theodore Koeloff, Raymond Hatton, Julia Faye. Polly Moran and many other notable play CTS in the minor roles.
