Critics Call "Driven" Hit Of tho De-

Accorded unstinted praise by cine

enthuse greatly over most feature

in it when he broke a precedent OF
six years standing and purchased a
prediction made outside Of Universal
City.
1t Is an epic of life in the Blue
Ridge Mountains, a cross section OF
phase Of American life that one
knows exists, but scarcely can imag-
inc. 1t is the story Of a mother who
forgets everything, o"cn family and
tribal loyalty, and sells out her hus-
band and three sons to insure happi-
ness for the one real human being in
the brood-a timid, shy lad, who
longs for the better things of life and
who, by some freak of fate, was born
into this strange family.
A magnificent cast was gathered by
Director Brabin. There is Burr Nc

ENGLISH TEACHER
TO STUDY AMERICA
Vacations Will Be Taken in This
Country by Englishmen

I London, March 30.--That school
children of England may be given a
better misunderstanding of America,
fund is being raised here to provide
annual vacation trips to the United
States for teachers in the elementary
schools. The idea was proposed by
Mrs. Alfred Lyttleton, who accom-
panied Lady Aston on her tour of the
States last year. 1t is hoped that by
next summer the fund will be large
enough to send at least one teacher.
AS the foundation grows, the num-
Der will be increased. Teachers will
be selected by rote from the the vari-
Gus counties.
The impressions they bring home
will not be confirmed to those of su-
perficial sight-seers. who are lucky to
get in contact with American life
closer than is provided by hotel
sooms, street crowds, theaters, rub
berneck buses. excursion steamers and
the bill-boarded landscape from a
train window. Through the English
Speaking Union, Mrs. Lyttleton is
arranging for the teachers to be in
vited into American homes in various
cities, and unlike many other tourists
who 60 to the States, they won't |
hurry home after a rather hasty in
spection of New York, Boston and |
Washington, with the idea that they !
have seen America.

| NATIONAL THEATER
Drama League Of America Will
Discuss New Proposition

Iowa City. Ia. March So.-First
hand information OF the movement to
establish a national theater in the
United States will be brough to the
members OF the Drama League of
America at Its thirteenth annual con-
vention at the University OF Iowa
April 10. 20 and 81. when Augustus
Thomas, president of the Producing
Managers association, will speak on
this subject. Also this will be the
first time the league has been the
guest of q university.
National leaders Of the amateur
and professional stage will lead In
the discussion of such problems as
theater prices. the scalping evil, the
community theater. the community
circuit, the status of the drama In
schools and colleges. the league and
the national theater, the league In
rural communities, fiuctuating thea
ter-going, tendencies in theater con-
struction and their effect on price of
seats, and the acted play.
Professor George p. Baker, Harvard

the drama in the college curriculum.
Other speakers will be Mrs. A. Starr

of the league: Theodore B. Knickley,

Among the questions to be an

are: How to organize little theater
group? How much power should be
vested in the director? How can ade-
auate standards be maintained? How
can the standard be adjusted to suit
communities with different opportuni-
ties? How can the circuit play be
taken to the small town that most
need it and yet cannot afford to pay
the guarantee because of inadequate
halls? How can the question OF re-
Enumeration for time spent on the
road be solved for busy people who
ought not to give up their regular
occupation?

smoke and cinders belched forth
from this peak darkening the sky for
days and scattering ashes over a
large area. The age of trees grow

by one Interpretation, that there also

GERMANY REGAIN|NG
MARITIME PRESTIGE
Tonnage Expected to Reach Three
Million at End Of Present Year

London, March 30.--Germany has
once more become a competitor in
the sea carrying trade OF the world
says Archibald Hurd, an authority on
maritime matters in commenting up
on the recent defeat in congress OF
President Harding's ship subsidy leg
islation. The recovery of that coun-
try" says Mr.. Hurd lis one of the
most remarkable, if the least general
ly recognized, events of the last four
years.
when the war broke out" con-
tinues this writer, Germany possess
ed more than 100000 tons of ship
ping. She ranked as the second great
est sea carrying power in the world,
and had created an efficient organi-
zation in every foreign port for deal
ing with passengers and cargoes. I'm
der the Versailles treaty she was CON-
PEELED to surrender virtually all her
sea-going ships. and was left with
only about 100000 tons of steam ton
mage. Today, as the result of the
thrift and industry of her workers,
she possesses merchant fleet of
about 100000 tons, and by the end
of the present year will own about
3,000,0 900 tons.
THE Germans have built great
volume of new tonnage at very cheap
rates and they have bought, and are
still buying, secondhand tonnage in
England and the United States and
are paying cash for it. There is no
country east. west or south which is
not now visited by German ships. and
month by month the number of ves-
sells employed at sea is being steadily
increased
There has been little unemploy-
ment in Germany since peace was
signed. The whole population, num-
bering 100000 has been hard at
work, laboring as a rule strenuously
for long hours and at low wages
They have been creating an immense
amount of wealth, and that wealth
has not been exported to any consid-
cradle extent. In the main Germany
has been reequipping all her indus
tries, and is now probably the most
efficient manufacturing country in the
world. Her shipowners, industrial
magnates and great working popula-
ton have built up once more a mer-
chant fleet to carry the vast products
of the country to all the markets of
the world

live VOLCANO IS
ON HOME GROUNDS
Mt. Lassen in State Of California
Is Active

Washington, March 30.--"Ameri-
cans are accustomed to thinking of
Uncle Sam as an owner of volcanoes
because of the array of them on the
Alaskan Peninsula, headed by huge
katmai, and their occurrence in the
Hawaiian Islands and the Philip
pines" says bulletin from the Wash
ington, d. c.. headquarters of the
National Geographic society.
"Volcanism. however, is not far
away thing after all. The renewal
of activity at Mt. Lassen. in north
ern California, early in March, en-
phasizes the fact that we actually
have a live volacno within the boun-
daries of one of our most popular
states. This example of one off Ma
ture's most powerful forces is only
about 200 miles north of San Fran
cisco and 800 miles south of Port
land
When Mount Lassen became ac-
tive in 1914 it was an epoch making
event, for it was the first volcanic
eruption within the borders of the
United States proper known to have
taken place within historic times.
Stones and mud were thrown for
half mile from the crater while
ash drifted for Is to 20 miles. Pre-
viously the region had been a sort of
Yellowstone with boiling mud springs
emitting sulphurous gases; and few
agitated springs that approach geys-
ers in activity.
Mount Lassen does not present a
case of yalcano appearing mex
plicably in a peaceful countryside. 1t
is on the edge of one of the greatest
ancient lava-fows in the world---a
flow which covers large areas in
northern California, Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho. Upon another edge
Of the same lava-flow is situated yell
