GERMANS EAT DOGS,
HORSES, SAYS REPORT

BERLIN. Aug. 25.-Germans con-
sumed the meat of l49,495 horses
and 5,4S1 dogs in 1921, according to
statistics issued by the government.
These figures do mi include private
slaughtering. Districts especially not
able for the consumption off dogs
meat are SaXony and Silesia
These facts tell a plain but heart
breaking story about the German
peoples plight" says the Vorwaerts,
commenting upon it. AT least it
sounds very different from the oft
repeated but absolutely unfounded as
sertions that the German workman's
dinner table is being well served
with food of all kinds.
These wrong conceptions are due
to those foreigners that form their
opinions about the German food sup
ply from having a look at the menu
of the Hotel Adion and who will
never get to read the true insight
story on German conditions, much to
the detriment of our poor country

PICTURE THRILLS

Setting a new pace for the screen
in realism and downright thrills i'm the
same manner the original production
did upon the legitimate stage, 1.-The
Storm opened its local engagement
at the Rivoli Theatre last night to
an enthusiastic and apprcviativc au-
dience. In many respects this Uni
versal-Jewel Presentation surpasses
the stage version, notably in the storm
and fire scenes where miles of eX-
teriors offered a greater opportunity
to Director Reginald Barker than
were at the disposal of George Broad
hurst.
Adopted from the play which pack
ed New York theatres for months. the
screen version follows Langdon Nc
Cormick's script faithfully. House
Peters plays the part of Burr, the
primitive frontiersman. in a manner
that reaches new heights of screen
artistry. Virginia Valli. as the French
Canadian girl, who causes Burr and
his l2nslish lawyer friend interpreted
hv Matt Moore-to break a fast
friendship, does the finest work of her
career.

Publisher to Put
Shakespeare Into
Paper-Back Books

GIRARD, Kan. Aug. 25.-Shakcs-
peare's plays for u dime!
This idea, originated by Emanuel
Haldeman-Julius and his wife. of this
city, is responsible for the creation of
a book business here that may grow
into large proportions.
In spite of the apparent fondness of
the American public for snappy read
ing, as evidenced by the numerous
new and iazzy periodicals appearing
on the news stands it is the belief in
the heads of the reading public there
turks q strong desire for more serious
reading, particularly for Shakespeare
And so he is preparing to bet a mil
lion dollars on Shakespeare=-and the
American public!
IT won't take o whole dime, at
that, to get a copy of any of Shake
speare's works henceforth. if Halde-
-Juliuss plans matorialize.
EIaldeman-Julius said recently that
he intends to offer to the world dur
ing August thirty volumes of Shake
speare at less than eight cents agiece.
He can make a profit even at that
price, he explains, as he buys paper
in carload lots, prints a book of one
size and style and operates in a small
town.
The Kansas bookseller has convert
ed large two-story building into a
publishing house, with its whirring
presses and Il busy aggregation Of girl
workers.
Everyone who reads at all, accord
ing to Haldeman-J Julius has read
Shakespeare, whose philosophy is as
good today at is was centuries ago
when he wrote it.
What I'm trying to do" he said,
lis to get Shapespeare out of the
handsomely-houn volume class and
into the paper back periodical, so that
everybody may have an opportunity to
read him"
Mrs. Haldeman- Julius, co-worker in
the enterprise, is Bryn Mawr grad
uatc, former actress and a writer
and editor on her own account.
