 "I do it to help get in the spirit of the scene,' she explained '1t is so much easier, for me at least, to feel the part I am playing if I speak the lines Also I've learned that if one has a somewhat high pitched voice it is wise to get the tones down as deeply as possible. It seems to strengthen and steady the whole edi- fee of characterization"

PROTECTIVE METHODS REDUCE EYE INJURIES

New York, Sept. -26.-Eye accidents in industrial plants are one of the chief sources of avoidable national waste, says a report of the Commit tee on Elinina ton of Waste in Indus try of the American Engineering Council made public recently.
 The total number of industrial blind in the United States is given as 5000 or 13.5 per cent. of the total blind population, in the report which ern- bodies the results of an investigation ton with the assay of waste in basic industries started by Herbert Hoover.
 The eye, it is declared, is involved in 10.6 per cent. of all permanently disabling industrial accidents.
 The report planes irregularity in reporting the facts as to number, se- verity and time loss among workers for incomplete knowledge of the sit uation. This irreguIarity persists in spite of uniform forms recommended
 Protective methods as applied in large plants have effected a great re- duction in injuries, it is stated. The use of goggles is one of the chief protective devices.
 The report also charges industrial waste to Sub-normaI vision and fau1- ty lighting. That correction of sub standard vision produces an increase in return that will pay for it's cost is in plants where several years of trial has provided a basis for judgment" continues the report
 '.It has been shown that improved lighting systems increased output two per cent in steel plants and as much as ten per cent. in shoe factories where work is more exacting. These

 The opening of wards in general hospitals to tuberculosis patients will De Of enormous benefit not only to the two million declared victims of the disease in the United States, but also to thousands of others in whom the disease is still easily suppressible- Many or these fear the stigma of an avowed tuberculosis hospital, and put off going to it until recovery has be come long and difficult. In a gen. era1 hospital they could be easily placed in separate wards so as to pro tect other patients and the diagnosis of their disease kept private.
 A concerted effort is being made by the U. s. Public Health Service and the National Park Service to make the national parks of the United States safe and sanitary for the vast numbers of Americans who have re- gently taken to touring them. Be- fore the war, when tourists were few CT and most of them trayeEed on stage ines ana stayed at park hotels, the sanitary problem was simple. Since the war however, the great majority travel in automobiles and camp out, enormously compHcating all health matters.

WARE WASTE AND

Human Bodies Are Poisoned By Thei1 ODn Waste Most Illnesses
 Are Pre1sntdbIe.

The humanbody has to be heated and fine foods burned inside the body pro- duce much waste. Allthis waste should be removed from the body regularly, thoroughly, daily, by the elirajnatiye organs,-which are the bowels, kid neys, skin, and to some extent the lungs. These should act in harmony if the bowels are inactive extra effort is required of the others, which easily become derangeti. Many medicines will force bowel action temporarily but the aftsr-etfects are harmful Many remedies are adver- tised, some of which have proven year after year to be reliable, efhci- ent, and without harmful action or effect. Take Beecham's Pills for ex- ample. For over 70 years Beech

Some medicine forces Nature to unnatural action. Other medicines, like those contained in Beecham's Pills assist Nature, act mildly, per suade and hence produce no harmful effects. 1t is common to find fam flies in which Beecham's have been used by several generations, their use handed down from father to son and from mother to daughter.
 That's the best possible recom- mendation for any remedy. Every druggist sells Beecham's, is glad to do so because he knows that their reputation has been won by merit.

USE OF VOICE HELPS
 IN MAKING A MOVIE

One of the questions most often asked by outsiders concerning a mo- ton picture production is:
 Do the actors speak while portray ing their roles ?"
 To answer this question it must be explained that there are two schools of motion picture actors, those who do not use the voice at all and those who occasionally speak lines while before the camera
 Thomas Meighan, Paramount star, is one of the principal opponents of the exclusive use of panto mime in acting for motion pictures. Mir. Mei- ghan never speaks a line while mak- ing his pictures, but depends entirely upon action and facial expression to put across'' his feeling.

. Manila, Sept 26.-There is enough timber in the Philippine Islands to take care of most of the lumber in- dustry of the Far East, according to Major General Lenoard Wood, who has just traverSed the archipelago from Northern Luzon to the Visayan Islands.
 Few people appreciate the enor- nous resources in the islands in the way of lumber, much of 1t of the most valuable kind" he said. Nearly 23O. 900. 900 feet of it was cut in 1920, of which in the neighborhood of 15,- 100000 was exported
 'sIn ordinary years there ought to be an enormous amount available for export. Now is the time to initiate those wise forestry measures which would insure the replacement of the trees cut. These forests are full of the most valuable woods. and there is possibility of great development in the production of rubber, camphor. etc. also an enormous amount of other. forest and jungle products
