Tony Sarg's Cartoons
Represent Caveman
Doings in Pictures

A new art form has come into the
motion picture world. It's creator is
Tony Sarg, known the country over as
the maker of Tony Sarg's marionettes
and as an illustrator and cartoonist.
IL is called Tony Sarg's Almanac.
For seven consecutive weeks audi
ences at the Criterion Theater have
laughed heartily at The little creatures
developed by Mr. Sarg The series
started with "The First Circus" a ioy
1ul extravaganza in which a diplodoc-
Gus, python rock snake-remember
your klplng and a caveman or two
end their families played their little
roles. The second was entitled "The
First Tooth Carpenter" and also went
back to the days of the caveman. 1t
vas eloquent in its treatment Of the
Joys of the first toothache. The third is
why They Love Cavemen" In its de-
velopment Mr.. Sarg shows the first
Derby, that greatest of all races. The
dinosaur and the hippopotamus come
into the stretch neck and neck, but what
chance has the hippo with a rival
whose neck is eighty feet long?
The great and only love story is
wien the Brontasaurus' Chauffeur is
called before the caveman king and
falls in love with his fair| and onlv
daughter. He appeals for her hand,
hut when he confesses that his wealth
consists of only one bearskin he goes
cut on his ear, very common occur
renee in those days. Finally there is
the elopement scene, when the hero
seizes the princess, turns back flip
through the palace window on to the
neck of trusty Brontosaur and gallops
away.
Hugo Riesenfeld has booked the
entire series of Sarg cartoons, made
and unmade, for his theaters. Sarg
has hit new note in that he creates
atmosphere and the humor of situa-
tion. Instead Of drawing million
little figures to get his cartoon he
creates his marionettes, has them per-
form their little antics by means of
strings and wires and photographs
their shadows on the screen The
effect is softer and more lifelile
because after all the characters are
real, even if they are only marionettes.
The newest discovery in motion pic
lures is the oldest. 1t is a develop
ment OF the Chinese shadowgraphs
which was known in the eighteenth
century and which was exhibited in
Paris around the time of the French
Revolution. With the modern camera,
the projection machine and the movie
screen the shadowgraph has again
come into its own.

Ray in MANY Roles

For number of months the critics
and public have been asking Charles
lay to play roles other than his estab-
lished type of the old-fashioned bow.
Now that Mr.. Ray is an independent
producer he can choose his own plays,
and, in accordance with public wishes.
he has recently made several produc-
tions wherein he is not country youth.
youth.
In Scrap Iron," wherein he made his
debut as a director, Mr.. Ray is seen as
millwright, fighter. In "The Barn
stormer" he essays young, small time
actor of the old school, and in his new
est production, "Two Minutes to Go"
he is dapper collegian.
IL have not, however, given up my
original roles" he declared. "But do
not, on the other hand, wish to be
known only as type actor, and nat
urally I have ambitions to play other
kinds Of parts"

Is Iheater Queue
A Tradition or
just Bad Habit?
Continued from page onel

land think that theaters which. OWING
to structural pecuiarities, provide no
shelter for their queues should omen
their doors and admit them. There
Is, however, something fascinating
about queue to many people. They
come up from the suburbs and, get
certain amusement in standing or sit
ting in a street and watching the
pageant of the passersby. 1t is very
strange. but experience has taught me
that this must be so. If you abolish
queues you would create an uproar at
once from very large section of reg
uiar pit and gallery patrons"
Possibly the managers are right in
their theory that the public wants
the queue. There is apparently some
fundamental of British psychology that
demands queueing into orderly lines
when two or more are gathered to-
gether in one place for some common
purpose. London's crowds queue for
tickets of any kind, from a hat check
stand to cricket match. Orderly
queues form at the fixed points along
the street where the buses stop; more
queues appear on the subway plat
forms opposite the point where the car
door will open. During the rationing
period of the war London learned to
queue for bread, butter, sugar and
meat cards, and the instinct still pre-
walls. Even the punters and rowers
on the upper reaches Of the Thames
queue their small craft into lines when
they wait to enter the river locks.
Give Londoner line and he'll queue
himself.

Perhaps Prince Hirohito's visit TO

LA Bataille," the "Lightnin'" of the
Paris stage. Not that "La Bataille" Is
anything like "Lightnin'," but it is a
popular veteran production still going
strong. The leading Toic is interpreted
by Gemier, one Of Frances best known
actors. Gemier as the Marquis Yori-
saka, Japanese naval officer, allows
his wife, the Marquise, to fall in love
with British naval officer, on duty in
Japan, in order to learn secrets of
naval strategy which Japan wants.
Later the British naval officer is aboard
Yorisaka's flagship in q battle with tho
Russian fleet. The Marquis is fatally
wounded. In his death throes he con-
fesses knowledge of the love between
his wife and the .Britisher, whereupon
the British officer assumes command of
the ship and leads the Jap squadron to

The realistic battle scenicseffeots, the
firing Of heavy guns which shake neigh

and Gemier's acting have combined to
make "La Bataille" veteran Paris
production.

Film Conditions Improving? ?

Film conditions seem to be improv-

production circles. The latest news is
the announcement that Jackie Coogan
is to make his own pictures, financed
by the West Coast Theaters, Inc, and
calling for production costs totalling
close to $1,ooo,0oo. Jackie's father is
the producer Of the series, which will
be known as the Jackie Coogan Pro-

THINGS BEING ~UNLEARNED.

Many things are handed down to us from former genera
TONS. Among them are certain sayings and statements which
have been quoted time after time and which have furnished
more or less inspiration and direction to the present day. Just
the other day our own learned John Sharp Williams said in
the United States Senate that George Washington never ut
tered the words so long credited to him, Prepare for war in
tine of peace"
just the other day we read a sketch of the life of Horace
Greeiy and noted that that great Journalist and statesman was
not the author of the phrase SO long attributed to him eco
west young man. The writer stated that the expression was
first used by John B. L. Soule, editor of the Terra Haute, Indi.
ana Express in the early SOS. The New York Tribune then
edited by Greedy reproduced the editorial and Greedy said that
ne could not give young men better business advice than that
contained in the now famous expression.
Many great things are said which, like the odors from beau
u1ul and highly perfumed flowers that are never inhaled by
man Or beast, are never. caught by the ear of man. MANY
more are uttered by some obscure person and are never carried
10 n world until repeated by some man of prominence or DOW
er, and in later days or years, we unlearn what we have learn
I'd as to authorship.

Not alone because they are a blot
on the landscape, boardings are con-
sidered an evil in more tangible ways.
When they are not strongly supported
there is always danger OF their falling
over in storms. Unless they are of
fireproof material they are easily In
fiammable and often serve to carry
fire from one building to another. If
the boards are not raised several feet
from the ground the space back Of
them almost invariably becomes a
dump for refuse and a convenient
place for criminals to hide.
Signboards nearly always shut our

much as possible, some cities limit the

DILLAv0U WOULD REDUCE
HOUSE MEMBERSHIP HALF
Assembly Passes Appropriation Meas
ure for Session, Increasing Figures
of Last Legislature

Helena, Jan. S.--The first week of
the Seventeenth legislative assembly
closed at 80 o'clock yesterday after
noon with the naming of all the SEN
ate committees and most of the house
committees, and the passage OF bills
appropriating $1S0000 for the expense
Of the assembly. Senate and house ad-
journed until ! O'Clock Monday, and
many members whose homes are near
by left last night for weekend visits.
Projected legislation to reduce the
number of house members took form
yesterday when Representative II. G..
Dillavou of Billings gave notice of a
low one representative per 10000 pop
ulation, instead of one for every $500
as now provided. Under the measure
Yellowstone county would have three
instead of five representatives, Mis-
soula two instead of four, Silver Bow,
now the largest, six instead of twelve,
and Cascade fonr instead Of six. These
with Carbon two, Deer Lodge two, Fer
gus three, Flathead two, GSilatin two,
Lewis and Clark two, would be the
only counties in the state with more
than one representative.
There is talk of possible senate
measure to provide state senatorial
districts as an amendment to the con-
stitution.
Further house progress was made
yesterday morning in the remodeling
of the state taxation system by the
formal introduction of Bergeson's sew
en- tax measures providing a tax com
mission and amending tax and license
laws and giving notice by Hathaway OF
bill amending the property classifi-
cation law.
The house rejected an offer OF an
accounting firm to do the clerical work
of the session, because, it was explain
ed, the law prohibits such contracts, it
would lead to controversy, and the Of
fer is misleading and uncertain.
Representative w. E. Dowlin of yell
lowstone county secured unanimous
endorsement of the Fordney emergen-
cy tariff bill now pending in congress.
The senate has given similar endorse
nent.
Funds appropriated yesterday for as
sembly expenses are S10,775 higher
than the amount for the last session,
which was $780, DDS. This is due to a
larger number of members. OF the
last expense appropriation, $162, $3.50
was used, $6,4O610 being returned to
| the treasury.

NeWBERRY CASE ARGUED
BEFORE SUPREME COURT
prominent Counsel for Defendant and
Government Debate Merits of VarI-
Gus Election Regulations

Washington, Jan. S.--Conviction Of
Senator Truman II. Newberry of Mich
lgan, and 16 others, of conspiring TO vi
olate the corrupt practices act was
denounced as a gross perversion of
Justice" by counsel for the senator,
and was upheld by the government as
a salutary lesson to those who would
purchase an election by paid propa-
ganda," before the supreme court yes
terday when arguments in the appeal
were heard.
Charles Il. Hughes, former associate
justice of the court, who headed coun-
sel for the defense. asserted that only
through ''grotesque" construction OF
the law had the government been able
to present any case to the jury. he
quoted the government brief as show
Ing that il was admitted that no re
striction was placed by law on the e1-
penditure of a political committee in
behalf of any candidate, nor on the
amount such committee might raise
for campaign and that no attempt
was made by the government to show
that Senator Newberry had himself
contributed in excess of the legal liml-
tation of $3,750.
The defense attempted TO show the
court that the corrupt practices act
itself, so far as it attempted to limit
campaign expenditures for legal OBJ
jects was unconstitutional.
Solicitor General Frierson, represent
ing the government case, took issue
with the theory presented by the de-
Tense as to what constituted 8 vio-
lation of the corrupt practices act.
Senator Newberry. according TO Mr..
FrierSon, being DESTROYS Of entering the
race for senator in 1913. called a con
ference in New York of Paul H. King
Of Detroit, afterwards his campaign
manager. and Frederick Cody of New
York, former superintendent Of the De-
troit schools. At this conference the
question of the campaign cost arose
and Mr.. FriersOn said Newberry was
told it would require the expenditure
Of $4,000 or more" Having agreed
to enter the race on the express con-
dition that this sum would be expend-
ed, the government held that he, Cody
and King had entered a conspiracy to
defeat the provisions Of the statute.
