PARAMOUNT week At
QUEEN AND ARCADIA
Gloria Swanson in THE Great
Moment" Hart Featured
in The WHISTLE"

Beginning Monday, September s
many photoplay theatres of the coun.
try will celebrate what is nationally
known as Paramount Week" This
Is week set aside by this great pro-
ducing concern for the exhibition OF
Its product from one end OF the coun-
try TO the other. In Wilmington the
Queen and Arcadia are the theatres
to join in the celebration.
The Queens program is headed by
William s. Hart in THE Whistle.
Two things in particular need to be
stressed in writing on this photoplay
First of all 1t is probably the last
picture the starywiii make. He has
long been contemplating retirement
from the screen and has practically
made up his mind to do SO now. His
loss will be felt the world over and
II may be likely that the public will
not permit his relinquishing OF his
stellar position.
Secondly THE Whistle has receiv.
cd the enthusiastic Endorsement of the
Delaware Safety Council. The rea-
son for this is that tho picture is
n lesson on the prevention of acci-
dents In great industries. No one
should get the impression that. THE
Whistle Is sermon. On the con-
trary, this element OF safety enters

popularity. The Great Moment
combines the American and the Eng

hero is American and the heroine
English. IT would be like Mrs. Glyn
To effect such combination and to

INVESTMENT
OF $l,5OO,OOO in
STATE FISHING
Wisconsin Leads Michigan, ILL.,
nOis and Indiana In Develop
ment of Industry

Fishing is an industry of CONNER
cial importance in Wisconsin, with an
investment of over $1,500,000 and en-
ploying over 1900 men according to
figures of James Nevin, head of the
division of fisheries of the conserva-
ton commission. This state was SHOWN
to lead Illinois, Michigan and Indiana,
other lake states, in the volume OF
it's fishing business.
Because of the value of the food
fish in Lake Michigan, Wisconsin is
more interested in their propaga-
ton in the lake and in Green Bay
than it is in the other outlaying wa
ters under control of the state, MIR.
Nevin stated. Two hatcheries have
been established on the shore Of the
lake, one at Sheboygan and one at
Sturgeon Bay, for the purpose OF
maintaining the food fish supply along
the shores of Wisconsin and to assist
the United States bureau of fisheries
and the state of Michigan in keeping
the waters stocked with better varie-
ties of food fish.
Whitefish and lake trout are the
principal food fish and are holding
their own despite the great drain
on the supply. There was a great
falling off in the amount of lake stur-
geon during the past 80 years. In 1880
there were 3,S99,6O0 pounds caught
while in 1917 the total catch was TO-
sos pounds. No attempt has been made
to propagate this variety of fish. In
1880 the amount of lake trout caught
in the whole lake amounted to 2,659,-
$50 pounds, as compared to 1917, when
the catch totaled 8,650,715 pounds. The
whitefish catch of 1880 was 8,672,22O,
and in 1917 was 3,047,820.
More than so per cent of the lake
trout caught were taken from the nets
of commercial fishermen operating in
waters adjacent to Wisconsin, Mr..
Nevin said, while the great bulk OF
the whitefsh were from Michigan wa
ters. During the past few years the
whitefish catch along Wisconsin has
increased.

During his lifetime Mr. Toole has

most of the local players were some

game.
Oregon excelled in team work and
shot baskets well from long distances.
Baraboo's weakness seemed to be

players, although there was some
