 After living here five or six years. Doc Took returned to China and then came back to the United States, being admitted as native born citi- zen. He took up his permanent resi- dence here. and the years slipped away. Then Sterling Robertson, United States immigration inspector, became suspicious He began an in vestigation of Doc Fook's case and came to the conclusion that the Chi nese had entered this country unlaw- fully. His suspicious were founded chiefly upon Doc Fook's contradic- tions of the allegations that had been made in his behalf by interested Ori- entals of San Francisco nearly a quarter of a century ago.
 Chief among these contradictions was Doc Fook's statement that his father had no brothers, and that. therefore, he could have no uncle. Another was his statement to Rob- ertson that he had no blood cousins in San Francisco, as certain Chinese | there had represented themselves tc be, but that he did have some tribal cousins.
 / With these statements of Doc Took, Robertson took the matter be- fore Commissioner Henke, who held a hearing and decided that Doc Took should be deported. The case was taken up immediately by the Sia Companies of San Francisco and was brought before Judge Dooling of Sar Francisco, who was sitting in the United States district court here Judge Dooling upheld the ruling oi Commissioner Henke. whereupon the

THE POND IN THE GREEN
 FOREST

Spotty the Turtle was awake by the time che first rays of the rising sun began to creep through the Green Forest. He was far, far up the Laughing Brook. very much farther than he had ever been before. and as he yawned and stretched he won- dered if, after all he hadn't dreamed about the wall of logs and sticks and mud across the Laughing Brook. When he had rubbed the last sleepy wink out of his eyes he looked again. There it was, just as he had seen it the night before.
 Then Spotty knew that it was real, and he began to wonder what was On the other side of it. 'I cannot climb it, for my legs were never made for climbing" said Spotty, mournfully, as he looked at his funny itlte black feet. "Oh, dear. l wish that l could climb like Happy Jack Squirrel! /" Just then a thought popped into his head and chased away the little frown that had crept into Spotty's face. Perhaps Happy Jack sometimes wishes that he could swim as | can, so I guess we are even. I can't climb, but he can't swim. How foolish it is to wish for things never meant for you!" thought Spotty.
 And with that all the discontent left Spotty the Turtle, and he bega n to study how he could make the most of his short legs and his perseverance, of which. as you already know, he had a great deal. He looked this way and he looked that way. and he saw that if he could climb to the top Of the bank on one side of the Laughing Brook he would be able to walk right out on the strange wall of logs ana sticks and mud. and then, of course, he would see just what was on the other side.
 So Spotty the Turtle wasted no more time wishing that he could do something it was never meant that he should do. Instead, he picked out what looked like the easiest place to climb the bank, and started up. My, my, my, it was hard work, You see, he had to carry his house along with him, for he has to carry that wher- ever he goes, and it would have been hard enough to have climbed that bank without carrying anything Every time he had climbed up three steps he slipped back two steps. But he kept at it, puffing and blowing saying over and over to himself:
 T can if l will, and I will if I can; There's nothing can stop me if l stick

Douolas MacLean at Strand


 Douglas MacLean closes his en- gagement at the Strand this date after a successful run of the charm ing Paramount picture "Chickens." which has served to further clinch- the title of this clever boy to the mantle on the Paramount program formerly held by Charles Ray. Doug las MacLean is a versatile youngster. He has youth, good looks and can act like a veteran. He has in .'Chickens' novelty that gives him much opportunity to do some clever comedy work. As the youngster who inherits a farm and turns to raising chickens after a life spent entertain ing the other variety. he makes the biggest kind of hit Tomorrow there comes to the Strand an entire change of program, presenting Monte Blue in ssThe Kentuckians," from the novel of the same name by John Fox, Jr. The story is followed closely by the Paramount people in the making of inc picture The traditional fued be- tween the blue blooded aristocracy of the Kentucky state and the mountain folks was never more timely than | now. when the selfsame mountain people have just fought law and man ] to a standstill in the very spot where John Fox. IT,, laid the scenes Of his rpvel. He knew the mountain folks of Kentucky. and he knew the aristo crats of the capital, the proud naughty Kentuckian.

will find a fraternal greeting await ing you at the drink where everyone swims now. The dance hall is ever attracting those who know music, for the orchestra is combination that has never been equalled in the entire valley. Carroll Reed has seven of the best men that can be found anywhere in the West and he knows how to get results from them by arranging his men and his music to fit the nights. When there is present a waltz crowd, those dreamy waltzes, with the two violins. the bass violin, the melo sax and the clever piano accompaniment, are featured. .When the fox trot bunch are out he gives them two fox trots to one waltz and keeps in close touch with his clientele.
 The pool this year is doubly attrac
 tive by reason of the fact that in deepening the well from which the water supply is pumped the drillers encountered a warm vein of soft wa ter and the pool is in consequence much warmer this year. Then the move by the management to have all suits and towels steriIized daily makes it the Mecca of all who want to swim. There is no back water from the sewer, no contamination from any source. The water is as fresh and clean as, in your bathtub and the pool is made sanitary and safe every day by the addition Of a special compound which cleans the water and keeps it fresh. Riverside this season is living up to it's name as the one spot in the valley where you can send the entire family and know that the tiniest tot is safe.
