ly without fear for themselves, as
over again.
ut is here, now, at this point, that
the whole journal of Chauvannes' be-
gins to be taken up with the extraor-
binary things that he observed. The
impression Of some strange creatures
close on the camp, in the neighbour
hood, became an obsession.
1t was on the first night in the new
camp after they had emerged from
the forest that Chauvannes had a SEN
sation, as he puts it. OF something
delcately feeling over his face. 1t
seemed to be a very slight, moving
touch, as Of the tip of a feather, but
it was clearly distinguishable. The
man put up his hand and made a
swift gesture in the darkness about
him, but there was absolutely nothing
that he could touch. He says that
this thing happened more than once
in the night, and each time, al
though he put out his hand instantly,
it came in contact with no physical
evidences of any creature about him.
THE thing occurred again the
next night. On this occasion Chau-
vannes distinctly felt that swift, lin
gering touch pass owes his face; and
again, instantly. he clutched about
him in the dark, beating the whole
place with his arms in a desperate
effort to come into some physical
contact with the creature. But it
was wholly to no purpose. He touched
nothing There was no sound anywhere
and the men sleeping about him in
the tent were not disturbed. He says
that on the following morning he
mentioned this thing again, but the
three men with him had no expert
ence of it whatever.
"If these creatures, of which Chau-
vannes had the strange premonitory
sense. had finally appeared, they
seemed to be directing their atten-
lions exclusively to him. ; At any
rate, the men denied having been
disturbed by anything. They had
seen nothing, felt nothing. But they
were disturbed about Chauvannes.
The concluding InstaIIment of The
Great CIPHER" will appear In The
journal tomorrow.

New negligees are velvet and this
degree of this modishness may be told
by the sort Of velvet used in their
construction.
First the corduroy robe; property OF
college girls, business women and busy
women. 1t is warm, good looking and
practical. It is made like a breakfast
coat or it slips on over the head. 1t
has no frills.
Then the velvet negligee-just plain
velvet, trimmed with a metal flower
and lined with thin silk. Then the
chiffon velvet negligee, lined with
georgette. Next the velvet brocade.

Did Lincoln Cause the War?

HTHE war between the states was

war upon the SOUTH" declared re-
port submitted June 81 at Rich

the United Confederate Veterans.
The report recommended that a
history written by Col. Huger Jack

by Miss Mildred Rutherford of Ath-

the south.
In answer to this. Dr. Gilbert Ellis

Southern California. and head of the

to film the life of Abraham Lincoln

Lincoln did not start the war; he
was simply pitched to the helm in
the midst Of a tornado. The civil
war was but a part of the eternal
struggle between the right and
wrong; freedom on the one hand and
that led to the civil war are not

in Bible times; 1t existed in the DAYS
of Rome; it exists today IN many
parts of the world among the un-

her rich and vigorous stories, which
have been translated into the prin-

as into such tongues as Finnish, Hun

Sea Storm, Staged IN
Tank.

MIGHTY are the movies. Who shall
circumscribe their possibilities?
Many directors have attempted to
stage reproductions of ocean storms
in the studio, but most of them have
had only Indifferent success. The
trick is said to be a baff1ing one.
1t has remained for Irwin V. Wiliat
TO accomplish this remarkable feat.
After taking pictures from the deck
of a real boat on the Pacific. in his
new production for Paramount. On
the High Seas" he had an exact re-
production of section of the deck
constructed in the studio tank at
Hollywood. 1t was placed on rock
ers. airplane propellers were used to
make a terrific wind, rain came down
in torrents and lightning flashed
There was wild time.
The results are declared to be aston
ishing by those who have seen sec
tionS of the film.
In this episode Jack Holt and Mitch
ell Lewis are giving a sea burial to
several corpses which they have found
on the derelict schooner. having taken
refuge thereon from small boat IN
which they and Dorothy Dalton. play
ing another featured role. have drift
ed for several days after the sinking
of an ocean liner.
The setting was surrounded by a
large staff of technical men. who ma
nipulated the various effects. Two
men operated wind machines which
blew the sails and rigging. Another
pulled rope attached to the end of
the boom which swayed it back and
forth. Another stood at the side of
the boat and dashed water up over
the side as the bodies dropped in one
by one. Still another produced light
ming. and a number of electricians at
tended the lights.
The camera was set upon a special
tripod which allowed it to be rocked
and swayed. producing the effect on
the screen of a rolling ship. All these
effects had to work with mathemati-
cal precision.
