In Mae Murray's newest Metro
picture, Fascination" which is pre-
sented by Robert z. Leonard at
Loew's Columbia today, most Of the
scenes are laid in Spain. The inte-
rior settings were designed by
Charles Csdwallader. who built the
Paris cafe scenes for Miss Murray's
previous picture, Peacock Alley"
The designs for these scenes were
obtained through models at the
Metropolitan Museum and from
Spanish books OF household design.

Public Giving

That too much bestowed for charity and other
good works is spent in freight, in the expense of
organization and distribution has been deterrent to
the benevoence of many who would give freely il
they were convinced that considerable part Of their
gifts would go to the purposes for which they
intended.
This is recognized in article by Mr.. Geddes
Smith in an article in "Better Times" New York's
welfare magazine Mr. Smith is acting director Of
the National Information Bureau, a position that
brings him in contact with the methods OF thousands
of organizations supposedly altruisc which appeal
to the public for funds He therefore observes that
the heart strings the public being strained and
its purse strings frightened by unethical charity de-
mands.
The public, says Mr.. Smith, is longer easily
stirred as it used to be a few years ago. 1t is
little tired of giving and though it is still moved by
an emotional appeal, a pretty strong case must be
made out and salient facts presented before it actual
ly opens its pocketbook.
Methods of charity solicitation have undergone
considerable change during the last few years and
the giving public critical than it used to be-
Since the "ffty-fifty boys of the war drives the
commission method has been in bad repue and is no
longer employed by welfare organizations with high
sense of responsibility to the giving public. The
sending out of tickets merchandise with request
to remit or return criticized while benefit enter
tainments regarded doubtful device for rais-
ing money unless they managed that the
expense is held down to a small part of the gross
receipts.
TN the long run" says Mr. Smith, solicitation
is good when it deals frankly with the public stimu
lates the brain well the heart, and produces
intelligent sympathy for program, we'll as inme-
diate cash. 1t is less good, though, perhaps for the
time being necessary. when it tricks by amiable sub
terfuges which conceal the real amount and nature
of the gift 1t is downright bad when it is based on
mis- statement when it wastes money when &

Fires in the Forests

We printed yesterday morning copy of the
vsed regulations regarding the admission campers
the Fort Apache Indian reservation and it will be
recalled that good deal is said concerning precau-
tions against fire 1t is wonder that the custo-
dams of our national forests made nervous by
the approach of the camping season which occurs
at period of the year when fires are more easily
started than at others.
Though we have nothing against tobacco on the
contrary, we are somewhat welded to it, we could
not blame the government if it should prohibit the
entrance of smokers the national forest should
drive out all whom its ranger might catch smoking
And we of the inseparability Of camping
and smoking.
Twenty per cent of all the forest fires started
By in the national forests in 1921 caused
by careless tobacco smokers. according to figures
compiled by the federal forest service In Arizona
New Mexico and California, one out of every four
forest fires due TO human agency was started by
burning cigarettes, cigars. matches pipe heels

and 1,444 by lightning.
Careless smokers, foresters point out are respon-
sible for the serious fire hazards in the
country The preventabe loss of all kinds from these
causes average more than s1S00oo00 according
to figures published by the national board of fire

The increasing popularity of the national forests
which were visited last by more than 5,25oooo
motorists tourists and sportsmen make the preven-
ton and control of fires more and more difficult.
To lessen the fire risk and to set good example
the forest rangers and other field officers of the

That wasn't such good recommendation man

the horses yank the plow along the furrow Lots

yanke up to the rack to make them do anything
worth while.
Fire yourself the minute you find that you
shirking your job. But let the fire be in your
heart.
If you better farmer today than you We're
yesterday, the world wants you and has place for
you Otherwise, better get out and let some fellow
step into your tracks
Give yourself plenty of to pull in. Short

There is another similarity. however that has not
