CITY OWNED CAR LINE
OPPOSED TO UNIONISM

DETROIT, Mich, May 22.-offi-
GERS of the Street Car Mems union
charge that the street railway COM
mission, which operates this city's
municipal street car system, is at
tempting to destroy the union. The
manager of the system is a heavy
stakeholder in rival motor bus COM
pany. The unionists declare that
municipal ownership of street cars in
this city is controlled by enemies of
municipal ownership.
The street car employees have been
working with an understanding that
they have the right to organize and
to select their own representatives.
The commission is attempting to en-
force the company "union" idea-of
debating to the employees whom they
will select as representatives Men
are discharged without hearing.

The storm scene is the greatest
thing of its kind ever put on the
screen. Eleven weeks were occupied
in making it and as many as 800
men were used at one time in con.
structing the mechanical PR perties.
Stout old trees crash to the ground,
young saplings are bent almost in
two, houses are torn apart, and borne
up in the high wind, while over all
play weird flashes of lightning.
"a funny thing happened to Port n
Strong when we were making this
scene," continued Miss Dempster.
"You know he plays Romeo Washing
ton, the negro boy, who comes back to
the haunted house to stay with his
lady-love, the maid. After things
got too bad in the house for even a
gentleman with borrowed war med
al, Romeo chose the storm. Porter
wears big floppy shoes and did no
reckon with the furies Mr.. Griffith
had called up. He got out of the
house all right but came to grief in
the mud at the bottom Of the steps.
While he tried to scramble to his feet
again a particularly strong gust of
wind came along and off went Por-
ter's SHOE. This was not Included in
the scenario and so the look of amaze
ment on poor Romeo's face IS the real
thing"

BIJOU

Exceptional vaudeville is promised
at the Bijou theater on Sunday next.
With each Of the four acts making q
distinct appeal, the program affords
ample opportunities to show each act
at its best in novelties, songs, dancing
and comedy.
Terrill & Kemp, "America's Young
est EquiIibrists" in hand balancing,
posing, and feats Of strength, present
a most wonderful exhibition that in
cludes a vast number of new feats
and novelties that are bound to appeal
to the enthusiasm of an audience.
Smith & Revere, a black and tan
comedy singing and talking act call
ed "How &c." consists of hilarious
syncopated mixture of song and sto-
ry, full of laughs, and creating much
mirth for the audience. Sewers and
Steger are an ideal modern couple
and to prove it, they not only dance,
but sing and talk as well, closing with
a yodeling lullaby. Their voices
blend in perfect harmony.
Alice DeGarmo, an expert aerial
artist in addition to creator of feat
ure trapeze feats, will be seen in
tricks. She is talented. and has
gained an enviable reputation for her
self in the graceful execution of these
feats.

.THEATERS
TIGER ROSE' DIR
SUNDAY MONDAY
Starring Lenore Uric, Who Played
Title Role on Stage

An exceptional film event is Of
fered local patrons of the silver screen
in the announcement of the co hing of
'.Tiger Rose" at the D & Il theater
as the feature attraction Sandty and
Monday.
Patterned after the Belasco play
that scored the most successful run of
any play on Broadway, starring Le-
more Uric, the actress who created
the title role on the stage, and who
achieved such fame and popularity in
her latest hit, "Kiki'; backed by Da-
vid Belasco, whose endorsement it
bears; produced by Warner Brothers,
and directed by Sidney Franklin, the
photoplay presents a combination
hard to equal anywhere.
The acquisition of David Belasco,
his play and all it stands for in the
realm of drama, is a guarantee of
high dramatic quality.
The story of "Tiger Rose" set in
the far northwest, in the region where
men and wild beasts rove at large,
killing and being killed, impelled by
instincts of hunger, love and fear, is
one chock-full of the dramatic and
soul-stirring. As a result, the pic
ture is said to move and tingle with
human interest.
Rose Bocion, nicknamed "Tiger
Rose" for her untamed ways, is a
regular wildcat, untutored and unre-
strained. Leaving home after her
fathers death she is saved from death
on a raft and brought to the factor
of a Hudson Bay post, who decides
to adopt and bring her up as his own
child, In the post she learns to par
ticipate in the loves and hates of the
men she is thrown in contact with.
Supporting Lenore Uric, are the
following: Forrest Stanley, Joseph
Bowling, Andre De Beranger, Sam
De Grasse and Theodore Won Eltz.

HOW TO KEEP
WELL
DR.. Frederick r. Green,
Editor Of Health"
%. 1924. Western Newspaper union.)
VITAMINES

WHEN Nebuchadnezzar carried the
- Jews away captive to Babylon,
he told his court chamberlain to select
four young Hebrew captives, "comely
and without blemish," to serve in his
court.
Daniel, Shadrach, Meshack and
Abedneg0 were selected and put In a
school for courtiers, along with lot
Of young Babylonians.
That they might have the best Of
food the king commanded that they
be fed from his own table.
/ But Daniel and his companions re-
fused the rich foods and demanded
that they be fed pulse and water
When their training was completed
the chamberlain found that the young
captives were more comedy and of
better appearance" than their Baby
lOnian companions.
Why?
1t has taken us three thousand years
to find out.
Daniel and his three friends ate
plain, fresh food. The Babylonians
ate heavily spiced and richly seasoned
dishes.
We know now that the human body
must have certain amount Of fresh,
living food.
Primitive people learned this long
ago. The Arabs eat dates; the Moors
eat figs; the South Sea Islanders eat
breadfruit and coconuts; the natives
Of central Africa eat bananas; the In
dams ate fruits and berries.
Even the Eskimos, without fresh
fruits or vegetables, eat raw seal meat
or fresh blubber.
When sailing vessels made long voy-
ages and when methods Of preserving
food were limited, sailors kept too long
on salt meat and dry biscuits developed
scurvy. The gums softened, the teeth
fell out, the mucuOus membranes bled
and finally the men died.
The food was good enough, but there
was no living matter in it.
AS soon as the sailors got limes
lemons, oranges, bananas, apples, even
raw potatoes, the scurvy disappeared.
Recent experiments show that ami
mails given proper amount Of green
food are larger, stronger and better
developed than those deprived Of such
feed, no matter how abundant their
diet.
The substances in raw, fresh food
necessary for health anG growth are
called vitamines, from the Latin word
vita, meaning life. insufficient amounts
of these substances cause ricketts,, eye
diseases, scurvy, decay Of the teeth.
dropsy and paralysis.
So the age-old experience Of the hu-
man race and the latest scientific re-
search agree that the human body
must have fresh fruits and raw vege-
tables if it Is to be strong and healthy.
Cabbage, lettuce, celery, radishes.
tomatoes apples, oranges, grape fruit
and other fresh foods should form a
regular part Of our daily diet.

PINK EYE

DINK eye is very common and
! very uncomfortable condition. It
is ordinarily known as "sore eyes"
Almost everyone has had mild or
severe attack at some time.
1t generally occurs in warm weather
and is caused by a small germ or
plant, q near relative Of the influenza
bug.
The infection is generally contracted
through towels which have been used
by an infected person or by bathing
in swimming tanks which have been
used by others having the disease. The
germ may be carried through the air.
The condition is often found in cpl
denies in schools.
For the first two days after infec-
ton about the only thing noticed Is
slight itching or irritation of the eye.
as If a clnder or grain of sand had
gotten in. On the third morning the
eyelids are often found stuck together
so that the eye cannot be opened. The
lids are swollen and bloodshot. The
flow of tears is increased and burning
Of the lids is constantly present. The
discharge increases and becomes yell
lowish in color and the lids become
intensely congested and infiamed. The
attack lasts from three to seven days,
after which the inflammation gradually
disappears. In severe cases 1t may
last for months.
To avoid this painful condition don't
use towels that anyone else has used.
Be sure that you bathe only in clean
water. II your eyes begin to itch and
smart. be sure that 1t isn't due TO a
cinder or foreign body. If the irrita-
tion lasts more than two days, have
competent physician examine your
ewes or, If this isn't possible, put on
cloths wrung out Of cold water, wash
the eyes frequently with boric acid So
luton. keep out of the dust and strong
light and put one drop of 20 per cent
solution of argyrol (Which can be
bought, with dropper, at your drug
store) In each eye four or five times
q day.
Don't use patent medicines or eye
drops. Don't put on bandages or poul-
tees or anything else except cloths
wrung out of cold water. Don't allow
anyone else to use towels or cloths
which you have used.
II the redness does not entirely dis
appear in week or ten days, get the
advice of competent physician. 9th
erwise the Inflammation may last for
a considerable period.

went back to commencement time. We
were sitting on the porch talking 1t
over, Frank and /, after the fellows
had left. We had been celebrating the
twenty-fifth anniversary Ct our gradu-
alton from college, aad we had had
three happy days together with the eel-
lows, some of whom we had not seen
since the day we parted after our
commencement exercises We bad all
been struck by the changes which had
come to each of us, and naturally each
one had swelled with satisfaction
whenever some one intlmated that he
had charged little.
Mae had been In Arizona most OF the
time, working cruelty hard in the
mines; he was bald and scanned and
crippled with rheumatism. Pete's hair,
which had been a ri0tous bunch OF
black curls, was entirely white. Fred,
who had been slender and smooth
checked, showed a face that was the
result Of hard struggle and physique
that pulled the scales at twice the
amount he could manage when he was
a freshman. Ed seemed most like HIM
self; brown-haired, smooth-faced, slen-
der as a boy, he had changed the least
of all. Life had been rather easy
routine for him; he had not needed
money he had struggled little; ne had
developed little ambition; he entered
only slightly into the "reminiscences
aad the controversies which sprang
up; he had no plans for the future,
little thought of the past.
After they were all gone. some way
we decided that Fred had gripped us
most of all. He had been wild, I'M
trained, harem-scarem fellow, who
cared little for God or for his instruc-
tors. He had brought himself to the
front; he was the head Of a big en-
cheering plant; he had great ambi-
lions for the future, and he was man.
aging his men and his boys in a mas
terly way; best of all, he had con-
quered himself. and all the wild pas
sions that seemed to rage through him
were under his control. His face
showed character and conquest and
self-control. You could rell by looking
at him that he was strong and depend
able. He had tried the hard thing and
he had made good at 1t, while Ed was
just as he used to be. He had got 40
where ;; he had ne ambition to get any
where He had not sacrificed; he had
not suffered, and fer him there had
been no development. And so. as we
thought 1t all over, we decided that
the man who had changed the most
had done best. 1t is struggle that
turns the hair gray and eats burrows
fato the face and bends tne shoulders
All these suggest accomplishment and
SO are venerable and beautiful.
The man who Is looking for the
snap, for the soft job, IS not likely to
get anywhere; passive, unaggressiye

rather crooked limbs that bear masses

which in aculeata carry the bare

that give the tree a resemblance to

We hold no grief for the crow. But when it is said that 81 900
persons. including women and children, have enrolled in this cam
paign, we forsee an indiscrininate slaughter of innocent song birds.
Crows are wary birds and the old pioneers averred they were
able to smell powder" 1t takes a trained hunter to get within
gunshot OF the crow. Too many disappointed hunters will take a
crack ats something regardless of species. Among the birds con-
spicuously black who will come in for indiscrininate shooting by
amateurs who think they are shooting young crows" will be the
American Raven, Purple Grackle, Bronzed Grackle, Rusty Black
bird, Red winged Hlackbird, Purple Martin, Cowbird and Startling.
Many will unthinkingly shoot robins. woodpeckers, grosbeaks, bob
ohnks, mourning doves. thrushes, whippoorwills and numerous 9TH
er songsters rather than return home empty-handed. The thous-
ands OF amateur hunters entering into this contest will cannonade
the quiet forests and woodlands, frightening away many valuable
species during their nesting season.
This campaign to educate the youth OF the land in the practice
of cruelty and slaughter OF birds is sincerely to be deplored. We

"These increasing appropriations
