The weather was hot and dry. No

moaned through the trees. Uine nee

The crash of falling trees, The ring
Of axes. The swish of saws. Logs.
logs everywhere. Dry tops, branches
and slashing. And amidst all these

A glowing spark from the stack. A
wisp of smoke. The hiss of burning
wood. Cracking flames sweeping
onward, skyward. A living wall of
vivid fire. Black death, and dcstruc-

One little sparll--and in it's wake
10000 acres of f.re-swept land; 49,
100000 feet of burned timber four

ARCADE TO-DAY

Youths judgments are often harsh
and its standards narrow. That is why
q young man so often looks for the
smartly dressed among women, fondly
believing that therein lies charm and
personality Never has this fallacy
been more vividly delineated than in
"Beauty's WORTH starring Marion
Davies, which opened at the Arcade
Theatre last night. This Cosmopoli-
tan-Paramount picture will remain
there today.
In this Sophie Kerr story Miss Da-'
vies, ever good to look upon, ever viy
vacious and endearing, has the part of
Prudence Cole, a young Quakeress--a
role quite unlike anything else the
rtar has ever done. Dressed always
in the demure gray Of her sect, Prud-
ence Is oblivious to the fact that her
clothes cause the young men to shr n
her, particularly Henry Garrison
whom she fancies.
