"LAST OF THE MOHICANS" -"
NOW A LIVING HISTORY

Critics have placed Maurice Tour
neur's new picture "The Last of the
Mohican's," by J. Feinmore Cooper,
in a new category Of film produc-
tions. It is called a permanent photo
play classic, which means that it will
live when the ordinary entertain
ment film has passed on. This is for
several reasons, the first being that
Tourner proved he could make all
aborbing entertainment out Of Coop
er's famous story, and at the same
time preserve the historical and
educational value. The Opera House
offers this extravagant production
Friday.
"The Last Of the Mohicans" is a
story too we'll known to need repeti-
ton, but the sweet love tale, with
the humor and pathos thrills and ex-
citing moments, is one that will
cause every beholder to gasp-then
laugh then gulp-or it is intensely
human, intensely real, and replete
with historical events that thrill.
All the ability and knowledge of
the great Tourneur has gone into
this production, which comes as his
first through the new Associated
Producers Of which he is a member
with Thos. n. Ince, Allan Dwan,
Marshall Neilan, Mack Sennett,
George Loane Tucker and j. Parker
Read, Jr.
An all-lead cast, especially select
ed by Tourneur, appears in this
story. The scenic backgrounds are
exquisite in their rugged beauty. !,

ENGLAND HAS INTENTION
I'd PAY INTEREST

London, April 26.-Great Britain
is planning to pay this year interest
on loans from the United States
amounting to more than s16o, 900 900
This announcement was made in
the House of Commons this afternoon
by Chancellor of the Exechequer
Chamberlain when he introduced the
new budget.
During the last fiscal year Great
Britain reduced her indebtedness to
America by s3oo,ooo,0oo England
still owes foreign countries, chiefly
America, $4,64s, 100000, calculating
the exchange at 81 to the pound.
Taking the gloomy view of the
country's financial prospects for the
coming year, the government has re-
trained from mitigating the crushing
direct taxation. By drastic cuts in the
national expenditures the chancellor
has brought the estimated budget
figure down to s74,ooo,o00 pounds.
Great Britail's lightweight debt is
now 7,573,o00,0o0 pounds. An inter
esting experiment in after the war
financing, which the government is
attempting this year, is the immediate
~ilotation Of q conversion loan at 81
per cent in order to reduce the dan
,serously heavy floating debt. The Of
fer applies to all s per cent war bonds
maturing between now and 1925. This
indicates the view Of British financial
experts that the State no longer needs
to offer high interest on national Sc
curities.
1--WE have ceased to borrow. We
have begun to repay u debts,' said
the chancellor. eve have restored
our international credit and make it
clear to those who doubted that we
shall still maintain this country as
the premier financial center of the
world"

ONE OF THE TROUBLES

(From the Christian Advocate)
We recently ran across an article
which gave some very practical and
homely reasons why America was in
such a disturbed and restless state
of mind. It is said that a prize was
offered for the one who would give
the best solution to the query, What
is the matter with America these
days?' and the prize was awarded to
The Illinois Bankers Association
Bulletin, which reported as follows:
"Too many diamonds, not enough
alarm clocks.
"Too many silk shirts, not enough
of blue flannel.
"Too many pointed-toed shoes, and
not enough s~auare-toed.
"Too many serge suits, and not
enough o~veralls.
"Too many decollette, and not
enough aprons.
1900 many satin-upholstered Ii
mousines, and not enough cows.
"Too many consumers and not
enough producers.
"Too much oil stock, and not en-
ough savings accounts.
"Too much envy of the results Of
hard work, and too little desire to,
emulate it.
"Too much desiring short cuts to
wealth, and too few willing to pay
the price.
"Too much of the spirit to get
while the getting is good and not
enough of old-fashion Christianity.

MINIMUM WAGE FOR WOMEN

The Ohio legislature has up for
consideration a bill to create a mini
mum wage commission and to set up
machinery for investigating wages
and working conditions of women and
children in gainful occupations. 1t
authorizes inquiries either on the I'M
tiative of the commission or on that
of twenty-five or more persons EN-
ployed in a particular, trade who may
file with the commission requests for
an investigation.
In either event it becomes the duty
of the commission to set up a wage
board for the occupation in question
On each such board employers, en-
ployes and the public have equal rep
resentation. After a thorough inquiry
it is the duty of the board to report
its findings to the commission which
then has power to act. If in the com
missions opinion the findings and
testimony taken by the board indi.
cate that the welfare of the women
and children are endangered or i'm.
paired, the commission then establish.
es a minimum rate of remuneration
below which the wage scale for able.
bodied workers in that trade shall moi
fall.
The principle here involved is not
new. Already thirteen states and the
District of Columbia have such legis
lation, as have several Canadian prov
inces. Its constitutionality has beer
upheld by the courts of half a dozer
states and by the supreme court il
the famous Oregon case.
Those who see the wage issue il
the proper light and who attempt tt
adjust scales of remuneration to &C
; cord with earning capacities hav'
been little affected by minimum wag'

SAVINGS.

Savings built the railroads-hired
the men who made the tools, paid the
wages of the men who cleared the
right of way, cut through the forests,
made transportation and travel pos
sible.
Savings built ships-bought the
cargoes which ships carry-sent the
ship on it's long voyages and allowed
of SURPRISES in necessary commodl'
ties to be brought to market.
Savings set the grocer up in bust
ness and put the plow in the farm

laws. In fact the minimum restriction
has served as a source of protection
against less scrupulous competitors
who have little regard for their en-
ployers' welfare.
Conditions affecting the employ
ment of women are rapidly changing.
Fewer and fewer work for "pin mon
ey," while an increasing proportion
now bear family responsibilities.
Their disinclination to organize which
relates itself to exception of marriage
opens the door to abuses that cannot
be imposed on male employees. The
obligation of the state to protect
these workers by assuring them ade-
quate wages and reasonable working
conditions is accordingly greater.
The principle of a minimum wage
for women and minors is sound. The
general assembly, with the 'co-opera-
ton of labor experts and the welfare
organizations that have given the
subject extensive study, should be
able to work out an effective meas"
ure for protecting the health and
maintaining a proper stadnard Of hv.
ing in occupations where they may
now be denied.-Cleveland Plan

ers hands-Savings did it all. All
that we call civilization was planted
and watered by savings.
/ Until men learned to save, they
were like the Eskimo, clad in skins
and living on what they could kill
or they were savages wearing fig
leaves and living on fruit in the top
les. 1t was only when they began to
have something ahead, to store up
SURPRISES, that men started to be bet
ter than savages.
Savings brought the fruits from
the tropics to the markets Of the
North. Savings took the manufacture
Of the North to the vinelands of the
South.
When you turn on the electric light
or pick up the telephone or start a
new record on the phonograph it is
not only somebody's work of yester-
day; or last year that you are using
it is last years work, built o n the
work of the> preceding generation
built on the work Of a hundred years
ago, built on the work and savings OF
men who lived before America was
discovered, before Rome and Egypt
and Babylon.
For the,,man who made the electric
light could not have done it without
the steam engine, and the man. who
made the steam engine could not have
done it without the forge and the
mai who first forged iron was living
on food raised with the help of
