Deception Passion and Gypsy

est screen achievement.
New York newspaper critics were
unanimous in acclaiming the picture
as one of the masterpieces of the
screen. The big battle scenes were
directed by Mr. Lubritsch from an
observation station. The people were
drilling in groups of fifty and their
movements before the camera were
directed by more than hundred lieu
tenants or sub.directors working at
signal stations, all in direct commun.
ication with the producer.
Speaking of Dagny Servaes, who
plays the role of Theonis in the pic
ture, Mr.. Lubtsch stated that he
picked his leading actresses with re-

Can a Fish Climb Ladders?--
Warden CLapp Is Wondering
But Regardless of Whether 1t Can Climb EN- Not
Kansas Laws Require One for Every Dam-So
the Fish Warden Issues UItinatum.

Pratt. Kan. June 5-Can fish climb
a ladder-that is. of course, a fish
ladder?
This much debated question has be-
come a live issue in Kansas with
threats on part Of county game war
dens to cause the arrest Of municipal
or corporation officials in charge of
river dams constructed without fish
ladders.
But regardless Of whether fish can
climb the ladders, or would il they
could. the main point is. that Kansas
has on its statute books a law requir-
ing fish ladders in dams The state
fish and game department. upon re-
quest furn shes blueprints and speci-
ficatiOns for such fishways. But there
are many dams thru out the state that
are not equipped with these ladders.
I'm fact. Alva- Clapp. state fish and
game warden, is not an enthusiast
about the practica bility of the fish
ladder In a recent bulletin pertain
ing TO these ladders. Mr.. Clapp wrote;
Il am unable to get authentic in
formation that fish do use to any ex-
tent. any of the fishways constructed
We have received many complaints
OF dams without fishways-" ne said
and petitions asking that persons
and com panies be compelled TO COM
ply with the law We advise all
parties building new dams to incor-
porate fish-ladders therein. We have
not compelled their installation in
dams already built for the reason that
we are not at all certain that fish
viii use the ways when installed. and
We dislike TO place a needless expense
or burden on anyone"

ident Of that institution. Doctor Lind
lay will remember that occasion. for
he was then a promising boy in the
Bloomington high school.
In 1891. Governor Stanford asked
me TO become president of his pro-
posed university in California. The
most important of my duties was to
build up an institution with young
men who had a reputation to make

make il.
In that work I visited Lawrence
several times, and I once rather
panied my friends in this good town
by telling them that always liked to

came TO Kansas. I assure you that
shall never do IL again-not because I
would not like TO. but because the
power has gone out of my hands.

a dam. Partitions crosswise in the
box. each containing a hole at alter
nate ends. cause the water to run
thru a zig-zag fashion. thus the fish
are supposed to be enabled to ascend
from the water below the dam to that
above.
Warden Clapp points out that Kan
sas streams have periods of flood wa
ter during which the dams are COW
ever. allowing fish to run at will. Also
the streams are mostly shallow. Dams
impound the water, making deep,
quiet pools for the fish to live in,
and shallow margins to spawn.
I am of the opinion that most
dams in Kansas are a decided benefit
TO the streams. as concerns the fish -
said the warden. that there are many
more fish in the waters impounded by
the dams and that there are in the
streams far above the dams, than
there would be if tbs dams were not
there"
In his inquiries as to the feasibility
of the fish-ladder. Mr.. Clapp found
that extensive experiments have been
conducted. but none revealed that fish
formed the ladder climbing habit One
of these was conducted at the Keokuk
dam across the Mississippi where a
fish way costing thousands of dollars
was constructed.

day period, night and day. said a re-
port on this test, ''in spring when fish
are supposed to run upstream, not a
