D'Orsay Carefully
Guards His Accent
From Deflement

Lady Duckworth's drawing room had
been struck by the Hudson Theater
stagehands and Hiram Draper's suite
at the Ritz was being set for the next
performance, when Lawrance D'Orsay
cracked his dressing room door, saying,
"Will you enter?"
How would you like TO play, so
This Is London in London
"oh, rippingl" exclaimed the FIRST,
and only, Earl Of Pswtuoket, dropping
a grease paint hecked monocle into the
trap formed by his gaping hard boiled
shirt.
"Rawther," agreed Lady Pawtucket,
shaking her bobbed blond hair out Of
her eyes.
Then they waited expectantly, and It
was necessary to explain TO them that
this was merely good, snappy way
Of beginning an interview and was in
no sense an offer.
"Well, anyway" said Mr.. D'0rsay,
they'd like it in London. We Eng
lishmen don't object TO a bit Of spoof-
ing. The balance Is pretty well main

IL haven't been over IN about ten
years, and I've been living in America
almost steadily for about twenty-five
years. Actually, he said, yarhs, and
this prompted the question:
How have you managed to preserve
your accent from dehlement by contact

of-contacis with people from Brooklyn
and the Bronx"
"But my accent j. OF my stock in
trade he replied. ut is always with
me, like ny walking stick, my monocl,
my mustache." Mr.. DOrsay tcnderly
stroked these dropping, walrus-likc
growths, and created a suggestion that
he is similarly careful Of his accent
, and vocabulary.
"Why,"'he continued, without these

He has been working in the United
States since the beginning Of the cen
tury, when Charles Frohman brought
him over from London TO support Annie
Russell and 10 play the King in "a
Royal Family After two seasons in
that Mr.. Frohman cast him for a part
in "The Wilderness" and it was this
performance that inspired Augustus
Thomas TO write "The Earl Of Paw
tucket,' the success Of which made Mr.
D'0rsay star.
DO you know he said Of this
piece, Il didn't know the Earl of Paw
tucket was amusing when began to

"Oh," interrupted Mrs. D'Orsay
but you did know. finally"
ayes, finally" conceded Mr.. D'Orsay
perhaps your experience was the
inspiration for Merton Of the Movies -
"Eh? Well. perhaps"
The Earl Of Pawtucket tapped the
ashes out Of his pipe.
People say I'm not acting; that I'm
just being myself when I'm on the
stage. Pifhe. It's hard work beinl

"ACRES OF DIAMONDS"
WELL SAID.

Professor H. r. Wallis put a happy
thought into the right kind of words
Thursday night at the commencement
exercises when he said that I'VE &c far
off in search of the precious things
when there are acres of diamonds at
home. He vas referring to the speaker
of the evening, M. M. Myers whom he
introduced as the city's matchless
orator.
Custom has taken the search for
qualified commencement speakers into
foreign fields. This year an excep-
ton was made, One of our W speak
ers was utilized. To say that he
measured up to foreign standards is
sighting the local speaker.
The same principal should be APP
piled to other lines of endeavor. There
IN Just as good merchants in Ameri-
al Falls as there are in other towns.
Instructors who make their money in
American Falls should spend it in
American Falls so far as spending is
necessary. The school board which
operates the schools from taxes paid
by local people should be sure that
the local taxpayers are considered
when supplies are needed. A school
should be a community builder not a
community leach. The same applies to
all other community enterprises from
merchandising to government.

JUST A MINUTE.

You people who like to read this
paper, but who borrow it from your
neighbor each week, should return
the favor. Why not subscribe awhile
and loan it to some neighbor who is
not now taking it, so as to sort OF
eve things up. 1t is true your
neighbor is kindly and lets you have
his paper, sometimes before he is
through reading it himself, but don't
you know his family has remarked a
hundred times about the way people
borrow, and they have wondered why,
if the paper is worth borrowing at all
it isn't worth subscribing for?
We merely offer this as a sugges-
tion-tell your neighbor that as soon
as his time is out you will subscribe
for a year and then you will loan him
the paper every week. Go through a
whole year of having to hunt up the
paper when he calls, of having to stop
whatever you r doing to look for 1t,
and spend twelve months, fifty-two

people are so close to the picture they
fail to see that the retailer is the olrd
and master Of the great distributor,
and hat the people are the lords and
masters of every retailer on earth. If
business is stagnant, the people make
business stagnant. They can bring
about business revival whenever they
decide to do so. Humanity's weakness
lies in the desire to "let George do it."
The people have come to accept the
belief that their particular attitude or
their personal action can have no bear
ing on anything, that it will be lost in
the general result Consequently ev-
eryone lays down" 1t is this know
ledge OF public apathy that gives
strength to the political leeches that
suck the lifeblood of the nation, and,
once fastened on to the body polite,
are so hard to get rid of. Trade re-
wives when the people buy. Then the
retailer gets busy, the jobber gets busy,
the manufacturer gets busy, and men
and women become employed. Pros
perity will come back when every man
and every woman acts as though the
whole problem rests on his or her in
dividual shoulders. There is no meet
ing place In which to arouse common
action on behalf of the people, unless
leadership be grasped by the home
town newspaper. The economist who
can devise a workable peoples union
will have performed a useful service.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922

A few weeks ago twelve o'clock was
twelve o'colch Now twelve o'clock is
eleven o'clock. Everybody says 80
and that makes it so. A dollar bill is
a dollar bill because everybody says
SO, and it's changed into ninety cents
as soon as everybody says so. 1t can
be changed into two dollars If every
body says so. "Everybody's" the doctor
that can cure all the ills of the world
if everybody'll tackle the job. Every
body a be happy if everybody says
so-an' prosperity? why, is up to ev-
erybody just like everything. Amt it
funny how so many people want to
join the nobody ranks instead of the
everybody ranks?

Every time the main streets of the
city are graded and the bumps elimi-
mated from the crossings, a few extra
miles are added to the city speed linn
it. There are signs posted about the
city in prominent places that read
Speed Limit Is miles" It's a joke.
There is no speed limit. Cars dash
by the court house daily at twenty to
thirty miles al hour, take the blind
corners on the hop and dare fate to
take a hand.
The car owners and drivers know
it is wrong. Garage men know it is
wrong. City Officials know it is
wrong. Pedertrains know it is wrong
but they don't argue the right-of-way
with automobiles. Some day there will
be a crash-the hospital a funeral.
And we'll all be sorry-after someone
is killed.

A notable promotion camc to him on
December 16. 1907 when Pope Plus X.
appointed della Chiesa as Archbishop
of the important See Of Bologna to sue
ceed the late Cardinal Svampa. His ad-
ministration Of this office for seven
years was characterized. 1t Is said by
prudence and diplomacy. His conse-

ed by Plus himself in the Sistine
Chapel, an honor so unusual that 1t
attracted worldwide attention Arch

has been described as follows: "A man

ascetically thin. with tho right shoulder
| raised above the left, and giving one
the Impression of extreme nervousness
and weakness. But when he raised his

powers and energy. Hc reminded one

made Justice and rlgh. triumph over

President Wilson's fourteen points that

The pope was deeply grieved by the

obtain Ircland's freedom. He was ap-

bishop Hayes on returning from the
vatican In 1921 said that ho was follow

The Mad Turkey.

Once there was a turkey that was
rs Wild as a lion. The people who
owned him did not want him. They
gave him to my father.
Early one morning my father told
me to kill the turkey. I went out.
doors. I leased him for n while. He
got mad. he did. yes sir. he got mad,
II picked up the ak. He spread his
tail and ran after me.
I ran in the coal shed. got a rope
and came out again. Then I climbed
on the coal shed and tried TO rope
him. First I roped n wheeIbarrow,
and I fell down off the coal shed. II
didn't hurt me. so I got on top of the
chicken shed. Tt had a fiat top.
After I had tried ten or fifteen
times, I finally ruped him. I fell off
and ne ran around the house. I kept
a hold Of the rope. After a while the
rope caught on some bushes. and he
<eI down, He could not get up.
I got the ak and instead OF chop
ping off his head I chopped off his
toe. Then he could not run.
That very moment my father came
out. He tool the turkey by the hoad
and took him 10 the back yard. re
let go of his head and the turkey
chased him into the house.
My brother and I went u and my
dad did. too. It took ell three Of us
to chop off the turkeys head. The
next day we had q feast.
