200 Patrons in Empress Theater
Make Orderly Exit.

flashed out, the Empress Theater be-
came a potential namesake of the
picture that was showing. Two hum
dred patrons were there early last
night when a ~ m caught fire.
Manager William Notes told every
one what was happening before
panic could produce chaos. The
crowd, directed by Lieut.. Beckett of
the first precinct and other police
men, walked out in orderly fashion.
The only disturbance was the faint
ing of Mrs. Bessie Sliger of 425 End
street near the exit. She was sent
home in an automobile.
Damage was confined to s25. Dep

AFTER THE SWIM

Sunshine is an excellent tonic for
the scalp, but it should not fall
directly on the hair until the damp
ness is gone.
And in washing the hair you
ishould be very careful about the
cleansing preparation you use.
Beauty experts agree a cleanser
made for all purposes will not do.
You need one specially prepared for
shampooing Often the simplest
preparation - one YOU can make
yours self-such as teaspoonful of
canthroX dissolved in a cup OF hot
water. is the best. Dandruff, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and en-
tirely disappear and lustrous fluffy,
beautiful hair results.
You can get canthrox at practi-
ally any good drug store

Strennth Of Plvwood.

PlyWood is wood Of any variety that
has been cut by machine into thin
layers and glued together in such a
way that the grain of one layer runs
mt an angle to the grain of two adiu-
cent layers The strength of ply
wood panel, in two planes greatly eX-
rpeds that of steel. With some wood
by combining cuts, it Is even possible
TO get greater resistance TO stress in
all three planes than steel affords,
although it is rarely necessary to go
so far.
Ordinary wood used for airplane
construction is not required to with
stand severe stresses in more than two
planes, What plywood means to air
plane construction is well Illustrated
in the case Of the Haviland machine
Before that method of using wood was
invented the best airplane wing
weighed T95 ounces and was capable
of sustaining load of only 81
pounds. Since then the plywood rib
used on the Haviand weighs $40
ounces and will carry load of pa
pounds.

West GOuldSboro
OBITUARY

Samuel Godfrey Wood, a leading
citizen of this place, died Aug. 27. in
the 90th year of his age. After
prayers at the house, funeral ser
vices were held at the West Goulds-
boro Union church, Rev. Alice NJ
Peasley officiating. Mr.. Wood is sur
viyed by a widow and one daughter,
Mrs. Jerome B. Clark He was born
April 10, 1885, the son of Ebenezer
and Martha (Nichols) Wood, and a
descendant of an old Massachusetts
family. In his early manhood he
visited California. travelling by sail
ing vessel and by rail across Panama.
Returning he settled on his farm
in West Gouldsboro. Ebenezer
Wood having divided his estate
among his children, the homestead
and adjoining farm were given to
the son, Samuel, on condition that
he care for his parents during the re
mainder of their lives, an obligation
faithfully fulfilled.
On January 81, 1867. he married
Emeline, daughter of jeremiah and
Ellen (ROsebrook) Tracy. After the
death of their parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Wood opened their home to summer
boarders, and for fifty-four years
they continued to receive such WISH
tors from many parts of the country.
Their unobtrusive but friendly per-
sonal interest in the welfare of each
guest made of their house, not a
mere place to stay, but a home to
which many returned year after
year with an ever-increasing appre-
citation of its restful charm. Com
PEELED by advancing age to relinquish
his farm Mr.. Wood spent the last
years of his life in the house built
by his brother Henry, on land that
was Henrys share OF the original
EbeneZer Wood estate.
Mr. Wood took an active interest
in any movement for the betterment
of the community in which he lived.
Gentle in manner. kind in heart,
honorable, honored and beloved by
relatives, friends and neighbors
alike, he will long be remembered
as benefcent influence in the town
where he passed his long and useful
life.

GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOR WORLD
Writer Says America May Learn Les
son From Europe Which Will Make
Her Greatest Nation.

Europe, as Il whole, is an expert
ment in force" writes Lincoln Steffens
in an article in which he surveys Eu-
rope as vast laboratory in which ex-
periments have been made in every
form of social and economical govern
ment; bolshevik, socialist, anarchist,
labor and world government. From
these experiments, according to Mr..
Steffens, America may learn a lesson
Which will make her the greatest ma
ton that has ever existed. Continuing
his article, Mr. SteffenS says: THE war
was an explosion of force 1t blew
up the whole laboratory, and a chemist
would have inferred that the mixture
he had made was explosive. He would
not have blamed some poor MANNED
workman; he wouldn't even have said
that glycrrin was bad and that nitro
gen was good Not in chemistry. But
in politics. he did The professors ev-
eryWhere We're patriotic. They did not
ask what caused the war. 'Who?' was
the question they asked and answered.
And so We have the same men who
made the war making the peace, and
consistently trying to carry out in their
treaties the just purpose of the war
and suppressing all new ideas, begin
iaboring conscientiously and. hard to
set up the very same combination of
social, economic and political elements

interesting that the opposite theory,

The Indians are resisting British rule

dience and cooperative sclf-reliance
The British empire has arrested, tried
and convicted Gandhi, their leader, just

The early environment of Calvin

in the public service. Each year
he has visited the old home, donned
the smock and cowhide boots of
the calling and gone about doing
the hundred and one chores that

is no job on farm with which he

oppressed Wood" as Fuel.

1t is said that in California pressed
wood is a fuel that has become more
Or less popular. Fuel for domestic
purposes has always commanded high
prices in southern California and con
sequently some one perceived the OPP
pOrtunity to win wealth from waste by
utilizing a part of the great quantities
of shavingS and saWdust that is annu-
ally thrown away or at best used to
poor advantage in Sawmills, planning
mills and similar establishments. so
this ingenious person invented a ma
chine for pressing shavingS and saw
dust into moldS. A string through the
center of the mold helps hold the
material together, and the heavy pres
sure to which it is subjected is all that
is necessary TO accomplish the rest.
