UNITED STATES SEWERS
DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS
WITH HONDURAS REGIME

Washington, Feb. 13-Dip1omatic
relations between the United States
and the government of Honduras have
been severed by the state department.
The stepwas taken because of the
failure of three political factions in
Honduras to reach an agreement I'M
der which constitutional government
can be restored by peaceful means.
No very serious fighting has been
reported, but the situation is so COM
plcated that the Washington govern
ment found it necessary to withdraw
recognition.

ALL OR A THRILL
FOR THE PUBLIC
Motion Picture Actors Risk Their
Lives and Health in Making Souls
For Sale"

The torrential rains will hold no ter
rors for any of the principal players il
Goldwyn's new Rupert Hughes picture
Souls for Sale" which has been book
de for two days at the Grand Theatre
beginning Monday for they spent two
weeks in the pouring rain, bedraggec
soaked to the skin in filming the bis

Souls For Sale
AS all readers OF Mr.. Hughes nov
els-and all followers of the movie
world know-"Souls For Sale" is the
perturbation of Mr.. Hughes move
of life among motion picture actor!
in Hollywood The climax of the story
comes with the burning of the big cir.
Gus tent in which the entire cast was
involved. The movie company in the
story is filming storm scene in the
circus when real storm cuts loose
and brings catastrophe to the director
and his staff of players Mr.. Hughes
task as director was to picture this
storm within storm" first the film
storm and then the real storm-which
wrecks the circus. The big tent is set
on fire by bolt of lightning and in
resulting confusion and excitement
the villain meets his just end
For two weeks, Mr. Hughes kept
Eleanor Boardman, Mae Busch, Bar
bara LAMAR, Richard Dix, Frank Ma
20 and Lew Cody in the pouring rain
while making this spectacular storm
scene. They acted under the water
logged circus tent or in the circus
grounds while rain was swirled and
dashed in their faces by the droning
propellers of high powered airp1ane
motors. They worked within six inch
es OF the whirling propeller blades, six
inches from sudden death. In short,
the actors in this photoplay faced the
very dangers that Rupert Hughes de-
picted in his story. The perils that
screen stars are called upon to- under
go are often much more thrilling and
dangerous than even press agents
would dare to claim.
Here are some of the sights that
any one on the lot would see while
these scenes were in PROCESS, Richard
Dix soaking wet, teeth chattering, hud-
died in blanket between trying
scenes; Eleanor Boardman, costumed
in the tights and chiffon skirts of a
trapeze performer, trying to get a lit
tie warmth from an Indian blanket;
Lew Cody, beating his way thru the
torrential downpour and running
blindly, to all appearances, into the
spinning blades of the wind machine,
where in the film he is cut to pieces
(his danger was real enough as his
coat brushed the whirling propellors) !;
Frank Mayo, being helped into an
to go home and go to bed
to prevent the development of a bad
case of influenza due to the exposure
to movie rain.

FRIENDLY PHILOSOPHY

By Buck Campbell.
 The world has very little use for negative man.
 Life is a chance game; so Is politics and a slot machine.
 Friendly advice is always ac. csptable when 1t comes from the heart.
 The courts are not SO bad, probably all right, but there are q lot of fool juries, whose yer. diets are often based on senti- ment rather than the law and evidence in the case.
 The hog knows when he has had enough, unless he is . two legged one.
 You can't always tell what Is In a newspaper article by the head 1t carries.
 The man who has been crook cd Is an adept at finding the crookedness In others.
 Adam was the first man lured to ruin by the smiles of a wom- an, but he was not the last by any means, to meet such fate. If you do not think we'll of yourself, how can you expect others tof
 People would have more faith h the reformers If they would begin on themselves.

 Lets of women complain because they have nothing to complain of.
 A girls idea of . rose without a thorn is a handsome young man who b rich and eligible.

 No, Maude dear; there Is no reason why person who Is one-sided shouldn't be absolutely square.
 It hurts some women like the mis- chief to acknowledge that they can re- member as far back as the Spanish American war.
 Love may be blind, yet girl can see more In the man of her choice than physician can with the aid of an X-ray.
 The winter girl cuts a figure on the Ice, but the summer girl must have a figure of her own to cut any Ice on the beach.

 Should a strange dog follow you wagging It's tail. you will receive . letter.
 The Indians held dogs responsible for the illnesses of children, a small dog being offered up as an appeasing sacrifice.

 In ancient Persia . dog was sm- ployed to drive away the demons who were supposed to wait for the soul of dead man.
 Among southern negroes the dog is hated. It is supposed to have been the Garden of Eden watchdog who let the devil in, and SO was condemned by God to starve and hunt ever after.

DAIRY OF EVOLUTION
Does Evolution Precede Transformism or Trans
formism Precede Evolution?
Famous Astronomer and Writer

Interest.

Famous Astronomer and Writer
on Scientific Topics Of Popular
Interest.
"In regard to the law of Gre.
alton and destruction in nature,
do 'transformism and 'evolu.
ton take place at the same
time In everything; or does
evolution precede transform
ism.' or 'transfornnisTu precede
evolution &C. ~. D.. DetrUit.
TRANsFoRAEIsM is the more
general term covering sew
u eral varying theories Of evo-
luton, and It Is not separated
from evolution In the way you,
assume. The two principal Irans-
formist theories ara s'Darwinlsnl"
and 'Lamarcl1ism, I" but each Of
these IL q form OF evolution.
They start from different points
Of view. L.amarck supposed that
the effects OF use and Of dis
use caused the variations that
living creatures undergo In the
course Of their lives and which,
according to him, they transmit
by heredity to their descendants,
provided that both Of the parents
has undergone the same variation.
But Darwin affirmed that willis
the ultimate causes Of variation
are fortuitous, they become stfec-
tive by means Of the struggle
for existence" carried on against
competition and against UnfavOr-
able conditions and surroundings
in nature. The result Of this
struggle, he said, IL natural Sc
lection" meaning that those anil
mails or plants whose variation
! has best fitted them to endure
through the contest viii naturally
survive their less fortunate rivals,
and therefore, their descendants
win establish variety, or species,
marked by their particular char
acteristics.,
Darwinism denies what La
marclkism asserts, viz, that FAC.
Quired characters" that Is, varia-
tons due to the effects Of
environment and Of use or disuse,
during the life Of an individual,
can Be transmitted to the OF.
spring. In this respect the two
evolutionary theories stand In flat
contradiction to one another.
Naturally one looks to facts OF
observation to settle the Ques-
ton between them but, untor-
tuhately. the matter cannot be
