Only six years old, but possess
ing more famous friends than any
other person in the world.
Guess who it is?
You're right; Jackie Coogan.
And it's a fact. Jackie, who APP
pears at the Strand Theatre today
in my Boy" his latest Associated
First National release, is known all
over the world and counts among
his closest friends hundreds of men
whose names appear daily in the
newspapers.
Enrico Caruso, the famous tenor
who died several months e. was
one of them. While riding through
the streets of Los Angeles n day
he espied the little form of Jackie
from his automobile and command
ed the chauffeur to stop. He alight-
ed quickly from the car and walk
ed over to Jackie, who was taking
his daily constitutional.
AS gravely as though he were ad-
dressing a king the son bird intro
duced himself to Jackie, shook his
hand and began a conversation.
Jackie had heard of Caruso, but
lboy-like, he was not very much inn
pressed, although he carried on his
part of the conversation with the ut
most courtesy.
After a while Caruso suggested
that he drive Jackie home and the
youngster, seeing a chance to get
out of walking any further, agreed.
On the way to his home they chat
ted gaily, and when they parted
|the noted tenor asked for the priv
lilege of calling on him. Accustomed
to homage from all types of hu-
man beings, Jackie nonchalantly
consented.
That night, just as Jackie was
putting on his pajamas, the tele-
phone rang. 1t was Caruso, plead
ing with Coogan, Sr., to be above
to sing a lullaby over the instru-
ment to Jackie.
And for five minutes the golden
lvoice-which could earn many thou
sands of dollars at a single perfor-
Imance-sang free of charge for the
little chap with whom its owner a
fallen in love. /.

respected judges in the country. His
unusual conduct in court, where he fre-
quently took cases out of attorneys
hands and examined witnesses himself,
caused him to be feared by all law
breakers. At the same time his repu-
tation for administering justice, regard
less of technicalities which som metimes
obscured pertinent facts, brought him
universal respect.
He was vigorous in his attitude
against anti-Americans during the
war. His son, Reed Landis, was serv-
ing with the British air service and
the judge several times tried to OBJ
tain war work which would send him
across, but failed In every war case
brought before hii4 where the de-
fendant was found guilty, the judge
imposed heavy sentences.
Advocated Shooting Kaiser Family
His strong rancor against un-
Americanism was particularly demon
strated in the trials Of /. W. WIS,
socialists and pacificists brought be-
fore him.
In one speech during the war he
advocated that the German kaiser and
his six sons be executed by allied
firing squads "out of justice to
humanity"
Judge Landis was one of the 80 per-
sons to whom bombs were mailed on
May day, 1919, and during the 1921
black hand trials here he received
many death threats. Against the
wishes of his friends, he insisted on
sitting through the trials.

Philadelphia, Pa. Victims of eye
strain and other eye weaknesses, and
those who wear glasses, will be glad
to know that according to DR.. Lewis
there is real hope and help for them.
Many whose eyes were falling say
they have had their eyes restored by
this remarkable prescription and many
who once wore glasses say they have
thrown them away. One man says,
Could not see to read at all. Now I
can read everything without my
glasses and my eyes do not hurt any
more. AT night they would pain dread
fully. Now they feel fine all the time.
1t was like a miracle to me-" A lady
who used It says: ''The atmosphere
seemed hazy with or without glasses,
but after using this prescription for Is
days everything seems clear. I can
read even fine print without glasses"
Another who used it says: Il was
bothered with eye strain caused by
overworked, tired eyes which induced
fierce headaches. I have worn glasses
for several years both for distance and
read my own name on an envelope or
the typewriting on the machine before
me. I can do both now and have
discarded my long distance glasses al
together ] can count the fluttering
leaves on the trees across the street
now, which for several years have
looked like a dim green blur to me.
