Daniel Breeskln. complete the bill.
THE Lady" was adopted to the
screen from the play of the same
name by Martin Brown, and was di-
rected by Frank Borzage. 1t concerns
a woman whose life is torn by years
of separation from her son. She tells
a friend the reason of her bitterness
against life, the whole narrative of
her marital disillusionment following
the days when she was a music hall
singer in London, wooed by the scion
of an honored house. All of this is
visualized upon the screen until the
present is again reached, and then
transpire events that lead directly to
the powerful climax and denouement
of a picture that permits its star eX-
tremely wide scope for her mimetic

DISCORDANT SOUND MAY BE MASTERED
 BY NEW INVENTION

IOWA CITY. Jan. 2S.-By causing successive waves of sound to inter- fere with each others transmission, Dr. c. w. Stewart, professor of has perfected a device which he be- lieves in time may be used to elimi- nate undesirable noises and to ad- just sounds ito an individual aes- thetic taste."
 The establishments of quiet zones for hospitals and the requirement of mufflers for automobiles testify to the penetrating nature of sound waves. They will pass, Dr. Stewart says, thru the most minute crack, and even thru an apparently solid wall. With the theory that sound waves would ex- pend themselves were they placed in conflict with one another, Dr. Stew art worked out his device, which he calls an acoustic wave filter.
 The results are obtained, Dr. Stew art explains, not by placing obstruc- tions in the path of sound, but by setting up a sort of battle between the various waves, thus causing a disordered transmission.
 A brass cylinder tube one-half inch in diameter and six inches long, con- taining nothing but air and open at both ends, is caused to transmit all tones of a piano up to a certain note and above this to transmit no audi ble sound. With another and slightly different tube, the tones below this same or any other note, will be re- fused transmission, whereas all high CT tones pass freely.
 "Other equally remarkable results of a similar nature can be obtained" said Dr. Stewart in explaining his de- vice. "The tubes, while entirely open and free from Instructions, have at regular intervals, branching tubes and chambers. At each branching point waves are reflected backward through the tube. The design of the branches can be made in such a manner as to produce a backward re- flection and an interference of almost any group of tones."
 Dr. Stewart explained that he con- sidered the device truly a filter. It 1 is a new basic method of manipula- ting sound waves and may find ap- plication in many acoustic devices in use today.
 "The telephone, the photograph and even musical instruments themselves may sooner or later profit by this new device" Dr. Stewart said. 'In fact there is opened to the imagina- tion the possibility of the elimina- ton of undesirable noises and the en- joyment of sounds adjusted to an in dividual aesthetic taste.

Floating Bottle Survives
 Seven Rough Years at Sea

FALMOUTH, Jan. 2S-Eleven years ago Capt. J. R. Moore, the landlord of a local hotel here, was in charge of the motor ketch Fort Churchill, when the vessel was caught in blizzard at Port Perrique Bay, on the Labrador coast.
 Thinking that his ship was doom ed and that the crew would perish, the captain enclosed farewell mes sages in a bottle and threw them overheard. After he had done this it was found possible to beach the vessel and all lives were saved.
 Capt. Moore has now received a message from the Hudson Bay Com pany to the effect that the bottle with the messages has been washed up on an island at Labrador.
