Sleep-WGIking Traced
to Disordered Brain

The researches Of a group of scien-
lists recently have thrown some light
on the dark subject Of sleep-walking.
They have found that sleep is a
more or less willful turning away Of
the senses from the demands of life
because at the moment these demands
cannot be satisfied.
When we are weary all our senses
all our nerves-are so played out that
they turn away from life" at the
same moment The brain, so to speak,
goes TO sleep in lump.
II happens occasionally that a part
Of the brain is poisoned by disease,
whereas the rest Of the organ remains
healthy. When the healthy parts fall
asleep the excited, or poisoned parts,
remain wakeful.
In the case Of the sleep-walker, that
part Of the brain which controls the
movements Of the legs is awake, while
the eyes and ears are sound asleep.
In other words, the sleep-walker is
suffering from partial brain poisoning
The idea that sleep-walkers should
not be wakened is a mistaken one
Experience shows that If they are
reused to an immediate sense of their
situation they are more likely, on fu-
ture occasions, to waken themselves.

Mother Had to Wait
for Engagement" Ring

writer in the Washington Star. II
taxed his financial resources to the
uttermost to start even our modest
housekeeping, so our engagement was
not sealed with the customary ring, al
though | did have a small wedding
ring.
During our early married life we
had to work and plan to make just
a poor living for our three little girls,
for although Johns salary Increased,
so did living expenses, and luxuries
were unknown.
Soon after our eldest daughter be
came engaged, John made quite sum
of money on a business deal. One eve
ming he came home with an expensive
looking ring box, and, opening It,
showed us a beautiful diamond ring.
We all supposed 1t to be an engage

looked cOmplacent, while the younger
girls were frankly enviOus.

enough for it, but now's the first time
I've been able to afford the kind she
deserves"

Friday and Saturday Film direc-
tors, like other folks, have their spec
ialties. Some prefer to produce com

melodramas. A director with a fair
for melodrama is more apt to produce
a successful picture if the story has
lot of Observation-Disclosures action in it
than if it is of the pure comedy type,
and vice versa. All of which is mere

Gbe Screen
At The Strand, Smyrna

Friday and Saturday Two great
'rushes" across the continent mark
the history of the Vests development
The first was the rush of the forty
miners from the East to the gold
fields of California and the free lands
of Oregon. The second was the rush
of '76 by the farmers of the Mississip-
pi valley to the buffalo fields of Mon
tana and Wyoming. 1t is this latter
rush that forms the theme of Zane
Grey's "The laundering Herd" The
picture vividly recreates the old west
of fifty years ago. Throughout the
plains of the midwest, huge herds of
buffalo rOamed at will. Then, in the
spring of 1876, news spread that the
hides were bringing as much as three
dollars each in the east. Immediately
there was a rush. Persons from all
over the country and from all walks
of life started for the buffalo fields.
Perhaps the greatest influx was from
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio The story
of '"The laundering Herd" tells Of the
journey of a group of hardy men and
women from their farms in the east
to the vast uncivilized territory of the
far west-Of the hardships they suf-
fered, of the dangers they encountered
the obstacles they Overcame and of
their ultimate success when they ar
rived at their destination.

MOBILIZATION OF MEN
Governor Robinson Interested and Will
Use all Means to Prevent Invasion

Plans for an active campaign
against the japanese beetle are pro-
crossing rapidly under the general di-
rection of Wilkinson D. Cranston, in
charge of the Anti-Japanese beetle
headquarters at 903 Shipley street,
Wilmington. Paul c. Millikin has
been appointed by Mr. Cranston as
chief of the road inspecting staff
which will have charge of enforcing
the quarantine in effect in New Castle,
Christiana and Brandywine hundreds.
More than 100 applications for jobs
as inspectors have been received by
Mr.. Cranston, although only "a in
spectOrs are needed, and Mr.. Grams
ton has announced that no more ap-
plicants need apply. For the present
blanket permits, good until June 80,
are being issued. Warning, however,
has been given by Mr.. Cranston, that
after that date the movement of farm
produce, either vegetable or fruit,
through the infected zones will be
| strictly scrutiniZed and that individual
permits will have to be procured. In
order to accommodate the hundreds of
farmers who are seeking information
Mr.. CranstOn has installed a telephone
with the call 785.
Governor Robinson Takes Active Part
Governor Robinson is taking an ac-
tive part in the beetle quarantine. As
"dirt farmer" himself he knows the
value of combating the pest. He
said Friday he would use the fullest
powers of the State to keep Delaware
clear of the beetle. The area covered
by the quarantine embraces six coun-
ties in Pennsylvania, three in New
Jersey and Brandywine, Christiana
and New Castle hundreds in this
State. All shipments of fruits and
