Mae Murray in
"Idols of Clay"

The lights O. London seem to possess
unusual allurement Tor the art and de-
coration department of the Famou

number of London streets scenes which
have been built for recent productions.
In "Dr Jekyll and Mr. HYDE a Lon.

an important pictorial role. with rows
of little shops, and fuit-stands and
honest-to goodness cobbIestones, and
dingy little apcthecary' shop for Miss
Ferguson to buy poison in.
But by far the largest and most pre-
tentious of all is the Whitecha ell set
which is being used in George ritz-
maurice's latest Paramount special,
"Idols of Clay, = in which Mae Murray
and David Powell are appearing The
set takes up most of the studio floor
space, and is one of the largest ever put
up.
Prominent among the buildings are a
cheap theater, a Rescue Mission house,
several Chinese opium dives, and a row
of diIapidated houses. A hansome cab
was introduced into the action, which
called for about sixty orseventy extras.
All of the properties used in securing
the right atmosphere were imported
directly from London three weeks be-
fore the set was built.
"Idols Of Clay" will be sho4 IN at the
Opera House, Thursday and Friday of
next week. 1t is a Paramount picture.

MUCH is TOLD BY PROVERBS
Household Sayings Throw Light on
Characteristics of Social Groups
Whence They Emanate.

1t Is a commonplace to say that a
nations moral code is revealed in its
proberbs; but it is less widely recog-
nized that proverbial sayings throw
light also upon the long-standing
economic structure of social group.
A proverb is not an individual obser-
walton; it condenses the experience
of class, a sex, caste. A large
number record the accumulated ex-
perience of the small peasant propri-
etor, his ceaseless labor and petty
saving and screwing. ''While the
sheep blates he loses a mouthful."
The economics of married life are
often tersely laid bare "A wooden
mother is better than a golden father"
(Shropshire) must be taken from the
outlook of wife who would be
summed up in national census as
''home worker"
"a rolling stone gathers no moss"

countryman, diligently making the
best of his land by long and careful
husbandry. "By going and coming

Here is trio from Norway: "a

COW Will not hear that the hay is
dwindling away" "You cannot climb
mountain by level road" Do they
not sum up certain aspects of the
little farm perched up amid scanty
mountain pastures?
Factory life, a modern growth
everywhere, has not yet left its mark
upon the proverbial lore of any coun-
try because it has not yet been fully
assimilated as a mode of .self-expres-
sion. The proverb is everywhere

Written After We Entered the Wal


And here is an excerpt from an
editorial published AFTER the United
States entered the war.
"Some excited citizens in this
country have seen fit to brand as
traitors every person who objects to
war. They have characterized as
treason every argument in favor OF
peace; have worked overtime keeping
the people from hearing both sides OF
the war question. These men act as
though they thought the ideal Ameri-
can should be deaf, dumb and blind
Anyway they arc trying TO lead him
into the war blindfolded 1t may be
treason to say SO, but | believe that
the excited citizens who can see nc
way out OF our present difficulties ex-
cept through an ocean OF blood are 4
trine near-sighted. | feel as though
they should at least allow lis 10 opci
our eyes and seek for a better trail
/ believe it is better patriotism and
better Amercanism to try TO end this
war by arbitration and agreement
than with the bayonet. Because other
nations have lost their heads is one

MAKES FOR EFFICIENCY
Higher Percentage of Electives
When Drinking is Curbed

The new military class called to
the colors i'll France has higher per-
centage of electives than any previ-
Gus class. French newspapers give
as one OF the principal reasons a de-
creased consumption of liquor.
Was il not true that during the
World War the highest percentage
OF effective young men was given the
country by Kansas? A new genera
ton had grown up in that state free
from saloons and drink.
The other day an athletic instructor
at Sandusky resigned because the
young men in his class drank too
much liquor-much OF it the poison

for athletic training.

MEXICAN DRYS LOSE TEMPORARILY
Closing Saloons on Saturday Nights

OsOSAh6 etACCAAo vi oataAoaI A7t6aA9
and Ssbbaths Goal of the Dry
Campaign
A Mexico City dispatch in the
Cleveland Plain Dealer of April 10
says that the dry elements in the
Mexican government have just SUI
fered defeat in an attempt to close
the cantinas or saloons on Saturday
nights and Sundays. and continues:
"The government has strong dry
leanings. the chief executive is al
legged to favor Prohibition, and +. Plu-
tarco Gales, Minister of War, is
known throughout the republic as a
bone dry advocate.
Several weeks ago a presidential
decree closed all places where liquor
was sold from Saturday night at 600
O'Clock until Monday morning at ZOO.
This edict had depressing effect
upon Saturday night revclry. More
than two thousand local vendors of

eminent be legally restrained from
enforcing the decree. After the ques-
ton was violently agitated in the
newspapers, the Supreme Court
handed down decision which vir-
tually granted the request of the
vets by naming several hundred
cafes and cantinas where liquor might
be sold over Sunday. This order was
later expanded to include all cafes
and cantnas and the "estado seco'
(dry state) is a myth so far as the
capital is concerned.
President De La Huerta's dry de-
cree was the subject of much satirical
comment in the newspapers. Hand
bills and placards were distributed
upon the main streets ridiculing the
measure by burlesquing it,
