Obituary
GROVER C. OLSON.

GROVER C. OLSON.
Grover C. Olson, one of the victims
OF the unfortunate accident last Mon
day morning, passed away at Lockwood
hospital Tuesday evening about seven
o'clock. His untimely death has cast
pail on the whole community. Always
willing and strong, he was one of those
who, happening to come along at the
fatal moment, stepped in to help the
firemen pull the cart at the instant the
big car came rushing into them, carry
ing destruction and death with it. It
was thought that Mr.. Olson had fight
ing chance for his life in spite of his
serious wounds; he stood in the full
vigor of his manhood, enjoyed rugged
health, and was endowed with power
full physique. Everything was done for
him at the hospital by doctors, nurses,
willing friends and by his own family
However, skill, love and tender care
awaited nothing. He was exceedingly
restless throughout Monday and the
following night. Under the influence
of a quieting medicine he seemed to
rest throughout the day Tuesday, but
it proved to be the sleep from which no
man awakes. A little after 800 in the
afternoon it was observed that change
was coming over him, and he kept
sinking, never regaining consciousness
until death came to end it all.
Deceased was born in Edgerton,
March "a, 1890, the eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. Otto Olson; his father died
several years ago, but his mother lives
to mourn him. When Grover was
year old the parents moved to farm
on the west shore of Lake Koshko-
nong, the old Bingham farm. Here he
was brought up, attended the country
school and helped his parents on the
farm. He was very bright boy, and
to give him better education than
could be had in the district school he
was sent to Albion academy and was
graduated from the commercial course
of this institution in June, 1906 Short
ly afterward he entered the mercantile
business at Amos.
On April 26, 1911, he was united in
marriage to Miss Melva Wilberg,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs Andrew Will
berg. About year later they bought
O ho1f sre Iafr fa%h % Co.
remained there until 1918 when they
moved to Edgerton where Mr.. Olson
had accepted the position as salesman
for the Edgerton Motor company. In
this work he endeared himself both to
his employers and the patrons by his
attention to the work, his genial dis
position and his helpfulness.
The funeral is held Thursday at 80
from the home on Washington street
where Rev. Schoenfeld read the serv-
ice, and from the Norwegian Lutheran
church at 200 where his former teach
er, now editor of The Reporter, spoke
to the saddened family and host of
sympathizing friends. Burial was
made in Fassett cemetery. The Trail
er baseball team, of which he was
member, and the members of the fire
department attended the funeral in
corpore.
Besides his wife and aged mother, he
leaves to mourn him eight brothers and
sisters. They are Mrs. Grin Rhine of
Orfordville, DuWayne, Willard, Rena,
Sybil, Earl, Stanley and Del.

Lawrence Curran, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Richard Curran, is home from An
napolis, where he is student in the u.
S. naval academy, to spend thirty
days furlough. He must be at Aanap-
oils again October l. He is splendid
looking young man in Uncle Sans uni
form. and is in love with his work at
the great school. On August 26 he re-
turned from cruise in Atlantic waters
taking the cadets and their masters to
the Azores, thence to Christiania, Nor
way, where they spent Is days and eel
ebrated the Fourth of July. Mr.. Cur
ran speaks very highly of the enter
tainment and other courtesies shown
them during their stay in Christiania
The good opinion must have been mu-
tual, for the press of Christiania is
loud in the praises of the quality and
conduct of the American naval officers
and cadets. From Norway the cruise
took them to Lisbon, Portugal, thence
to Gibraltar and Algericas, Spain, to
Tangiers, Morocco, whereupon they re-
crossed the Atlantic to Cuba, and
finally landed at Hampton Roads. This
completes one year of training with
three more years ahead to finish before
receiving a commission. Next sum-
mer's cruise may take MIR. Curran
around Cape Horn and up along the
South American coast on the Pacific
side.

Scaat Styles In
Skirts Sc0yned
BY Alice Terry

Scant approval Of scant skirts Is
the attitude of Alice Terry toward
the fashion in dress today of girls
from 10 to %. The young blonde
beauty who rose to fame through
her impersonation of Marguerite
Laurier in "The Four Horsemen of
the Apocalypse" declares that it
must be difficult, for those who be-
lieve brevity is the soul Of bcing
chic, to remain modestly feminine.

Terry. Il am wearing gown that
has come to typify to ME all that is

Al Christie and some of the girls
in comedy decided a short time ago
to institute a dress reform move
ment. Several Of the girls, notably
Rita Gilman and Esther Ritter, went
so far in their enthusiasm as to re-
vert to the styles of 1870 to 1883.
We don't know whether this had
anything to do with what followed,
but hearken:
Rita Gilman was playing brides
maid a few days later in a matri-
monial farce, 'In for Life" About
the time the picture was completed,
Miss Gilman's studio associates sud-
denly missed her. Her whereabouts
remained mystery until message
was received telling of her elopement
and marriage with DR.. A. A. Schwab,
a prominent bachelor sportsman of
Los Angeles.

manager will have good accurate
base ball pitcher in the house to
throw them.
If you are assigned to the traffic
department you must not seek to
stop speed maniacs in the usual way,
but must stand directly in front OF
them falling on your back and al
lowing them to pass over you when
it becomes indiscreet to pursue any
other course
You will rise, of course, after the
car has passed and say:
Come back here and do that
again"
If the automobilist complies with
your request it will add greatly to
the audiences enjoyment of the oc-
casion. ...
Altogether, the life of the movie
cop is pleasant enough if you live
through it. But if you have any de-
pendents, arrange with the manager
for a reasonable amount of life in
surance before you undertake the

On the Dark Continent

African adventure, battles with
beasts, clashes with cannibals and
thrilling escapes from imminent
death feature Miracles OF the
Jungle" probably one of the most
fascinating of serials now before the
motion picture public.
A preview of the picture was held
last Tuesday afternoon in the BALI
room of the Hotel Fountenelle when
Al Kahn, manager Of the Federated
Film Exchange in Omaha rendered
a luncheon to film men in this city.
The story concerns two United
States secret service men who are
sent into the wilds of Africa to bring

adventures and experiences on the

of the picture.

Church Organizes
To Combat Useless
Movie Censorship

The inevitable reaction that fol-
lows an extreme is setting in against
the him censorship hysteria. And
the counter-r1ovcment is being
launched from least-expected quar-
ter-the church. The Emmanuel
PRESBYTERIAN Brotherhood of Los
Angeles is beginning to organize
the 100000 membership of the Pres
byterian Brotherhoods of the United
States to eliminate destructive GEN.
sorship and senseless blue laws"
A meeting has been called by the
brotherhood officials to be held in
Emmanuel Presbyterian church in
Los Angeles to which the. promi-
ucnt heads of the industry have been
invited. According to the officials
the hrst unified step will be to si-
lenee the fanatics clamor for
destructive rather than a construc-
tive censorship" The suggestion al
ready has been forwarded to Presi-
dent Harding that motion pictures
be pfaced under the control of the
proposed department of public well
fare with the head sitting as mem
ber of the cabinet.
Efforts will be made to establish
closer relation between the screen
and the church by the brotherhood
which recognizes the great force
for good that pictures may exert.
1T is believed that better pictures
will result and censorship be modi-
lied or eliminated through this rela-
tionship," say the officials in a state
ment,
The brotherhood movement is be-
ing greeted in Los Angeles as one
Of the most significant and welcome
steps yet taken.
we believe that pictures are on
the right track" said an official of
the Morosco organization. "The
days of adversely which have brought
such doleful cries were only a natur-
al result that could be foreseen
months ago. But out of this a more
healthy condition and a sounder
foundation are surely to come with |
the industry and public benefiting |
alike.
Financial conditions, too, are GER
tain to be greatly improved. Money /
being frightened has caused more in
telligence to be applied to the MAX
ing OF pictures. And that is another
condition. We have every
faith in the industry and are main

For the first time in the career of
either star. Wesley Barry has been
cast in production with Katherine
Macdonald, in her starring vehicle,
Stranger Than Fiction" which will
be shown at the Strand theater this
week.
This attraction is from an original
story by Charles Richman and A. S.
LeVino. For bright comedy-drama
that sparkles with originality and
clever situations this is declared to be
one OF Miss MacDonald's best pic
lures.
Wesley Barry takes the part OF
"Freckles," a role that is somewhat
reminiscent of "Dinty" in that it
places him in the part OF poor little
orphan whom fate has placed among
crooks and in a slum atmosphere.
The little fellow attracts the atten-
ton of Diane Drexel, society girl,
played by Miss Macdonald, during
one OF her visits to the slums. She
takes him into her fashionable home.
Some splendid comedy situations
arise as a result of the fact that
l3-year-old Freckles falls in love
with his beautiful protector.
Into the story is woven a clever
plot that deals with the efforts OF
society to cope with criminals. When
the police force Of one of the larger
cities fails to apprehend the Black
Heart Gang. society takes hand |
with the result that the gang is
finally caught; but not until the audi

Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1921-12-02

THE afternoon gown compels
more attention from the aver
age m than almost any
other item in her wardrobe, and is
therefore the most diversified in its
development. Designers present each
season several styles, having more or
less uniformity; women make their
choice of these and proceed to de-
velop this choice along individual
lines. They determine the silhouette,
the position of the waist line, length
of skirt, materials and trimmings to
be used and undertake to assemble
these essentials of the mode in orig
inal, ingenious and interesting ways.
AS to the silhouette for this winter,
it Is not debatable-it is slender, and
the waist line is low. Skirts are lon
ger than they were, and one may in
troduce panels, draperies and tunics,
so long as they do not interfere with
the straight and narrow path of the
silhouette.
The most novel features for this sea-
son are to be found in sleeves and
