AN UNUSUAL WILL

A wealthy man, dying recently, reg
istered in his will the wish that the
children will devote their lives ito
work in furthering the interests Of
their country rather than for the
accumulation of more money. In
furtherance of this desire of NINE" he
adds, 81 have amply provided for
them" Funds were also set apart by
the will for the purchase of American
flags for each room in a public school
building bearing the family name, and
to defray the cost of equipping each
student graduating from that school
with copies of the federal constitution.
The spirit of patriotism and devotion
to the country's interests that marks
this final message constitutes a finer
Inheritance than the ample" none
tary provision. 1t is rather a pity
that wills like this one are so rare as
to be rated as novelties" in the

HoPI INDIAN BUILDINGS

Scientists have determined that the
Hopl Indian buildings of many of the
villages of the tribe northeast of Flag
staff Ariz., date back to about 1871,
when the Hopis revolted against the
Spanish priests and tore down mis-
sions built by the Spanlards, using
many timbers from the missions In
constructing their own houses. A
party including DR.. A. e. douglas OF
the University of Arizona and Dr.
j. A. Jeancon of the Colorado State
museum recently visited the Hopi
pueblo villages, where they made
study OF the wooden beams In the an
Client structures. Professor Douglas
has specialized in the study of rings
in Arizona trees with the result that
he has been able to determine the
age of timbers. The scientists prin-
cipal difficulty lay in securing the per
mission OF the Indians to make bor-
sacred by the Hopls. When this per
mission was finally obtained a num-
Der Of one-inch borings were made and
the examination Indicated that the
beams had been cut about the year
1920. when tradition says the Spanish
built their missions in northeastern
Arizona Some 60 years later came
the Hopi revolt and the missions were
torn down. Many Of the beams in
the Indian dwellings are decorated
with rich carvings, which Doctor
Douglas says are the work Of the Span
lards.

The United States Department Of
Agriculture announces that more than
so per cent reduction in the amount
Of freight claims for loss and damage
was made in 1922 compared to 1921 :"
According to the departments figures
SOC, 100000 was paid out on this ac-
count in 1921 as against s4s,5OOO 900 In
1922. This saving was largely due
to the use Of better packages for
goods shipped by rail. To save al.
most 100000 week in damage to
freight ls in Itself worth while, and
this does not take account OF Indirect
losses, Inconvenience or even hard
ships thus averted. The campaign
for better packages has shown It's

Newspapers and Reporters
Play Big Part in Picture

Although Gloria Swanson is the
star of "a Society Scandal" her new
Paramount picture, and Rod La Roc
que and Ricardo Cortez hase princi-
pal supporting roles, a most important
factor in the story is the daily news
paper.
The newspaper is used in the pic
ture to show the power of public
opinion on the lives Of the characters
about which the story moves. Mar
jorie Colbert, a high bred society
woman (played by Miss Swanson) is
plunged into disgrace by the relent-
less tactics of Daniel Farr, an attor-
ney, who prosecutes a divorce case
against her and her shame is Haunted
before the world in the newspapers.
Later Marjorie uses the same news,
papers to get her revenge upon Farr
and then again goes to the newspa
pers to try to undo the havoc she has
brought into her own life as well as
that of the young attorney.
Headlines of several of the met
ropolitan dailies are used frequently
in the picture, and other scenes show
the city room of one of the great New
York papers, also the presses re
lentlessly grinding out the newsprint
that sometimes make and at other
times wreck characters over night
"a Society Scandal opens a 3 days
run at the Rialto theatre on Tuesday

Illness is not inevitable. II we get

so many ailments lurking in whit for

The astounding fact that within

the cigar and licked It's larger competl-
tor by no less than 53,Oo0,OoO,oc0 in
the annual output, is a classic example
Of what advertising can do for com

cial. Advertising to the trade and to
the consumer has advanced the cigs-
rette 20 eO,OOO,OOOOO0 yearly produc-

They have awakened our wealthy cigar

erly directed, this campaign should
succeed. Advertising revived the Ma
