TO ADVERTISE THE BEANS
Grange in Michigan Leads the Farm.
ers in a Publicity Campaign.

The Oranges of Michigan are Join
ing heartily in a movement among
the bean growers of that state to
widely advertise Michigan beans,
and money is being raised among
the Oranges in all sections of the
state to provide the funds for such
a campaign. State Master A. B. Cook
is one Of the extensive bean growers
of the state and is an active leader
in the movement for greater public
ity for the product, as well as aimed
towards emphasizing the quality of
Michigan beans, to the end that bet
ter prices may be secured. Two-fifths
of all the beans grown in the United
States last year were raised in Mich
igan. and the government crop fole-
cast for 1924 predicts that Michigan
will produce this year at least 500
of all the beans grown in the United
States.
The project contemplates the col
lection of a small sum from each
bean grower to create an advertis-
ing fund, which shall make Michi-
gan beans known in every part OF
the United States. All the machinery
of the Grange organization is being
employed in this effort, following a
like move several years ago, in
which the Grange took the initiative,
for organizing the beet growers OF
the state to pool their product and
hold it for higher prices than they
had been getting. Congressman John
c. Ketcham was then master OF the
Michigan State Grange, and it was
largely under his leadership that the
successful organization of the beet
growers was accomplished, and Mr..
Ketcham was elected president OF
the state association. 1t is estimated
that several million dollars of in
creased money have been brought to
Michigan beet growers as the re-
suit of that undertaking, into which
Grange energies were so vigorously
thrown, and similar beneficial re
suits are expected from the present
protest.

"THE TEN COMMANDMENTS"
SENSATION OF ? CONTINENTS

Cecil B. De Miles triumphant
masterpiece, "The Ten Command
ments," coming to the Playhouse
Wilmington, one week starting Mon.
day evening, September Is, twice
daily thereafter at 2:3O and $3.50, is
the sensation of two continents. With
its tremendous appeal to all classes,
creeds and nationalities it is as pop
ular in London, Paris and Mel
bourne as it is in this country. The
first part of this De Mile Offering is
a superb spectacle which shows
Egypt at the apex of it's ancient
grandeuer, the exodus of the Chill
dTen of Israel from the land of cap
tivity, their safe passage between
the mighty walls of the parted Red
Sea, the giving of the Ten Com
mandments, and the destruction of
the Golden Calf.
The second or modern part devel-
ops the same theme in it's application
to the life of today. through a thrill
ling dramatic story of love, devo-
tion and wilful self-destruction. In
both parts is found the basic element
of great drama-cOnflict. Never be-
fore in the history of stage or screen
has there been told a story that so
moves the human heart to its very
depths. It has the wide sweep of an
epic, the rugged strength of
a Scandinavian saga the sublimity
of the Pentateuch.
AS is most fitting this mighty dra-
matte spectacle is enacted by a re-
markable cast Of stellar players, in
cluding Theodore Roberts, Leatrice
Joy, Rod La ROGUE, Richard Dix,
Nita Naldi, Robert Edeson, Agnes
Ayres, Estelle Taylor and Charles De
Roche. DR.. Hugo Riesenfeld's Won
lerful score accompanying the pro-
luction will be played by an orches-
.ra of twenty men who are carried |

TN THE days of stage-coaching
between Helena and Fort Ben
ton, there was a large station
not far from Great Falls, at Sun
River Leavings, that was operated
by a Mrs. Armstrong, before its
management was taken over by
Mr.. Reinecke.
An eventful life had been exper-
fenced by Mrs. Armstrong, before
she located at the Leavings. 1t is
told of her that when a child, liv-
ing in Minnesota, she was captured
by the Indians during the Sioux
massacre, and but for the coming Of
the soldiers, might have shared the
fate of many other children, who
were enslaved or slaughtered by
the savages.
AS a landlady, Mrs. Armstrong
was d~eservedly popular, and had
friends, because of her
kind and generous nature. 1t will
be remembered, for the story has
often been recounted, that a COM

man, they at once identified him
and he realized there was no hope
for him.
This murder occurred in 1882,
when Vigilante Days and Ways
belonged to the past, and mobs no
longr attempted to usurp offices
OF Judge, Jury and Sheriff. But
this fragrant crime; the cowboys
felt, did not call for the slow action
OF the law. A defenseless woman
"a friend of theirs-had been
brutality killed for her money. Her
murderer had been positively iden-
titled. Why wait longer to avenge
her.?
So they thought, and so they
acted. A gallows was improvised
OF some sort. Perhaps it was like
the earlier ones-it had no drop,
the condemned man being drawn
up, in which case several men acted
as hangman. Whatever method
was used, it proved to be effective,
and Jack Stuart paid the penalty of
his infamous deed.
