ell exito alcanzado ell aiio pasado por
la bellisima production france sa,
"BOUCLETTE" eel ANGEL DE
LA MEDIA NOCHE", en- la cual la
sin par actriz francesa Gaby Deslys,
desempenaba ell primer panel. ATodos
los teatros de San Juan y Santurce Sc
|svieron repletos por el publico ansioso
de admirar a tan bella .actriz, y todo ell
mundo salio complacido pues "BOU-
CLETTE" resulto ser una de las mas
bellas peliculas que Sc ha exhibido en-
Puerto Rico.
Ahora Sc nos anuncia otra produc-
!cion de Gaby Deslys, la Ultima des-
graciadamente, pues recien terminada
esta, la muerte esa cruel seiora que
mo respeta belleza, nj popularidad, nj
riqueza, enamorandose de ella, Sc La
.llevo para siempre. Los mas difici-
les criticos han asegurado, en- vista
de los progresses hechos por Gaby, que
81 esta actriz hubiera vivido, serfa
hoy la estrella de las. estrellas cine
matograficas indiscutiblemente. En-
GEL DIOS DEL AZAR" (su nueva
produccion), desplega i'm lujo, una CO.
queteria, una gracia y un talento tai,
que eclipsa cuanta actriz existe. En-
las playas de Deauville, luce sus en-
cantadoras for1nas prisioneras de un
|elegante traje de baio. En- una fiesta
que da sus amistades, ejecuta unos
.bailes del mas puro arte er6tico; nos
|deja introducirnos en- sus habitacio-

mos simplemente ataviada de. un pre-
Fcioso matinee entire cuyos riquisimos

REFRESHING

No matter where they were, he
made love to her. Their engagement
had lasted several weeks, but he
could scarcely bear to wait for COM
parative privacy to whisper his de-
votiOn, and to ask for vows of con-
stancy. And so it was that he MUIR
INJURED sweet something's across the
glass topped tables at The Bon Ton
Confectionery where they had been
served enormous cooling dishes of
home made ice crea.
He looked deeply into her sparkl-
ing eyes. "You are all mine," he
breathed. And then a doubt seemed
to come over him, and he whispered
anxiously: "Could you bear to think
Of another?"
"Oh, darling" she whispered, |
a little. "I've already had |
swo But 1 don't think one more fruit
,undae would hurt me. You're SO
dear-and so extrava-

IS BILLIONS is
VALUE PLACED ON
EDISON'S GENIUS
Long List of Industries Founded
Upon His Inventions.
GIVES WORK TO 100000

! There is one human brain that has
hard cash market value today, in the
business and industrial world, of Sl5.-
OOO,OO0,OOO. Billions is correct. not
millions. That is within 20 per cent
OF equaling the value of all the gold
dug from the mines of the earth since
america was discovered, says the
New York Times.
The brain is that of Thomas Alva
Edison, who many time has said to
his cronies, "Well, if worse comes to
worst, I've got a good trade 1 can
always make $75 a month as an ex-
pert telegraph operator and I can live
comfortably On that"
The $15,0OO,OOO, represents the
present investment in America alone
In industries which are entirely based
on the inventions of Edison or which
nave been materially stimulated by
his inventions. Several of the coun-
try's largest industries are included.
Here is the list, and 1t touches only
the high spots. 1t shows either the
capital or the total investment ac-
cording to the latest dependable esti-
mates:

"How much Will it cost?" Edison

How much will 1t cost7" Edison
asked.
oh, about $50"
Edison reflected mo. Never mind
England. 1t isn't worth $50"
From that invention came one of
the leading Industries Of America to-
day.
Edison has testified that he invent
ed the kinetograph in 1885. The de-
| vice took 40 pictures a second on an
endless tape. 1t was not the apparatus
for the reproduction of the pictures,
enlarged, on a screen. The first re-
productions were made without en-
largement. The claims Of others to
vital additions to the moving picture
rest only, according to Edison, on pro-
ducing apparatus.
In 1877 Edison started planning a
little machine that is now in the
South kensington museum, London.
He had to weigh carefully the prob
able value of it before he spent S18
on having a model made. The ma
chine talked. In 1919 the United
States had 1876 factories making phon-
ographs and graphophones. The cap
1tal investment was $1O5, 100000, the
annual payroll s34,OOOOOO and the
value of products S159,5OO,OOO. Yet In
Mr.. Dyer's book, published In as late
as 1910, monographs and moving pic
lures were Jumped together in one
item.
His Part in Electric Lighting.
Last September a dinner was held in
New York to celebrate the fortieth an
niversary Of the first commercial use
OF the electric light. Edison himself !
had remodeled gas chandelier In his
Menlo Park home In 1S79-it was ex-
hibited at the Electrical show In New
York last year-but the first CONNER
cial electric light station was the Pearl
street plant, Manhattan 1t had an
initial capacity of BAIT 15-candlepower
600 waltz lamps and a customers list
OF % names. This was the foundation
Of all modern electric light and power
systems.
The New York Edison company now
has capacity Of 21,5OO,OOO 5O-watt
amps and has 214,OOO customers. 1t is
estimated that s4,25O,OOO,OOO Is In
'ested In the electric lighting business '

CAPITAL GREETERS
HOLD ANNUAL BALL

In a veritable fairyland of vari-
colored lights and flowers more than
600 members of Washington Charter,
Greeters of America. their ladies and
invited guests danced, sang and ma de
merry at the annual ball of the or
ganization in the Wardman Park
Hotel last night.
For more than a month prepara-
tions had been under way for the big
event. and Russell Conn, president of
the local charter and chairman of
the committee on arrangements, left
nothing undone that might add to the
enjoyment
During the evening several attrac-
tive feature numbers were presented,
and continued applause followed the
efforts of Ethelwyn Johnson and
Gladys Wilbur, who interpreted the
"firtation" dance. Both were forced
to respond with encores.
Dancing occupied the greater part
of the evening. Boerstein's Orchestra
played.
The Greeters of America already
have decided to hold the annual con-
vention in Washington some time in
June, and preparations for the con-
clave, which will bring to the city
1000 visitors, are we'll under way.
All committees have been appointed
by the local charter to complete
plans, and, according to officials of
the organization, one of the greatest
gatherings of hotel employees ever as
sembled will be here at that time.

BALL PLANNED TO AID
| COLUMBIA HOSPITAL
Charitable Work, Including Ma
ternity Cases, Needs Support
From Private Sources.

Funds TO meet expenses of Columbia
board of the institution in providing
for the charitable work will be raised
at ball to be given at Raucher's
on Wednesday night, December 12
Although the hospital is built on gov
ernment land and is under the super
vision of Congress. it is pointed out,
the. burden of the charitable work, as
Wen as the provision of hospital linen
and furnishing comfort and recrea-
tion for the nurses, falls upon the
woman's board, and funds are needed
to help out in this work.
Columbia Hospital has been said to
be the place where most of the Wash
lnston babies "go" to be born The
board provides layettes, if they are
lacking, for the little bodies, and, be-
ginning with the prenatal clinic, sees
that the mother is Instructed before
hand in the care of herself and the
baby. When the ordeal OF birth is
safely passed and the mothers go
nome. they are given advice, care and
education in the matter SO vital to
the race. for care at this time is the
ounce of prevention that saves the
ing later on. This care is given
through the agency of the visiting
nurse. maintained at the hospital,
which keeps in touch with the moth
ers and their babies in a series of
follow-up visits.
The ball. it is said, has every prom
ise OF success. Good music is prom
ised and the support of the sociable
and charitab BILE is asked SO that the
good work may continue.

Too Much Work

l hired a chap to run my van,
which took but half his time; he
was a naughty sort of man. his
bearing was sublime. AS through
the town we used to whirl on er-
rands blithe and gay, he looked
much like belted earl, in all his
brave array. And when the car was
not in use he sat in idle state, and
read the works of Mother Goose,
hard by the garden gate. One day
l said to him, "Old fife, the golden
moments pass; why not get busy
for a while, and NOW yon plot OF
grass? Why not devote to golden
| deeds the heeting hours" l said
"why not exterminte the weeds that
mar the onion bed?" 'I was not
hired to NOW the grass" l heard his
answer ring; "methinks you have a
nerve of brass, suggesting such a
thing" Insulted, as the Douglas
was, when Marmion got fresh, he
grimly ground his iron jaws, and
shudders shook his flesh.
humbly fired him on the spot, ano
| handed him his mon; and then an
| other job he got, and still anothe,
one. He was afraid to lend hant
at any useful chore; by one EN-.
ployer he was canned, and then BY
seven more. From his high place
saw him pass, in gloom | see hin
tread; and now he's glad to NOV
the grass and weed the onion bed

|G. 0.P. COMMITTEE
| CALLS D. c. SESSION
Woman Members Summoned
to Meeting to Fix Plans
for Convention.

John T. Adams. chairman Of the
republican national committee. has
sent kilograms to the forty-one
woman associate members of the
committee urging them to attend the
meeting of the committee to be held
here next Tuesday and Wednesday
The women will not be entitled to
vote in the meeting Of the commit
tee, but they will be permitted other
wise to participate in its delibera-
tions.
Tuesday night Chairman Adams
will give a dinner to all the members
of the committee. men and women
Wednesday night Mrs. Leonard Wood
wife of the governor general of the
Philippines, who is here temporarily
will give a dinner to the associate
woman members of the committee
Wednesday at l o'clock President and
Mrs. Coolidge will entertain both the
man and woman members of the COM
mittee at luncheon at the White
House.
To Fix Convention Date.
The committee will fix the time and
place for next years republican ma
between Chicago, Cleveland, San
Francisco and Des Moines.
1t is possible that at next weeks
meeting an effort will be made to re-
wise the apportionment of delegates
in the national convention adopted by
the committee last June, but the pre-
vailing view seems to be that this
question of representation from the
various states is settled. Under the
new order of things the southern
states. in which the republican vote
is small. will have fewer delegates in
the convention, while many of the
northern states will have more dele
gates. The total number of delegates
in the convention will be 1895. This
means that it will require 519 votes &c
nominate.
This will probably be the last meet
ing of the republican national COM
mittee before the convention meets
next June. The work of arranging
for the convention will be placed ir
the hands of subcommittee. which
will meet from time to time. 1t seems
to be settled in advance that the con-
vention, wherever it is held, will meet
in June, probably the second week ir
the month.
