.DYAS GIVES JONES
Fight Of HIS LIFE

There are very few screen villains
in the business who are anxious to
tangle with Buck Jones, the fOrinida-
bic young man who stars in William
Fox western pictures. But Dave Dy-
as, who plays the heavy in 1.-THE
Timber Wolf" Bucks latest produc-
ton, which opens Friday and .Satur-
day at the Weir theater5 is an excep-
ton. During the making Of the pic
ture he gave Jones two Of the great
est fights Of his his career.
'sThe Timber Wolf" is rapid-fire
western story, chock-fnlI of the sort
of action that has made Buck Jones
popular. It has been adapted from
Jackson Gregory's novel of the same
name by John Stone and was directed
by w. S. VanDyke.- In the cast are
Elinor Fair, VIII Walling, Sam Allen,
Robert Mack and Jack Craig.

MOVE IS STAGED IN
MOST WICKED CITY


Richard BartheImass has never had
3 more picturesque or coIorful pic
ture than ''soul Fire." the John S.
Robertson production which First Ma
Eional is offering at the d & Rtheater
Sunday and Monday.
ASoul Fire. is based upon Martin
Browns successful Broadway play,
@Great Music" Browns drama was
a study OF young musical genius
seeking to find himself. The COM
poser's search carries him about the
world unit, almost derelict, he finds
the incentive to write great things
in the simplicity Of the South Seas.
The picture moves before 3 sweeping
panorama. Opening in Italy, where
Eric Fame has been studying music,
it swings to Paris, for the young COM
poser has been caught in the web Of
Russian adventures who alone re
alizes his great promise. The story
next finds Fame a wanderer-a -brok-
en- dreamer-in Port Said, the 'wiok-
eldest city in the world" From Port
Said he ships upon tramp steamer,
finally bringing up on lonely island
in the Pacific.

sweep Of tropical island, al provide
colorfnl moments.
Incidentally, it should be noted that
Eric Fame furnishes Barthelmess with
his Test acting role IN long time.

Meant as "Slam" at Author?

What might be called a readers
prize" was recently awarded London
book collector under conditions of the
most perfect impartiality.
The reader in question, who is an
inyeterate hunter for bargains in first
editions, had invested in an old copy
of paul and Virginia" which he was
attentively perusing. He read through
the book and, somewhere toward the
end, discovered that two pages were
stuck together Separating them with
penknife he found between them
several French bank notes totaling
5000 francs and the following note
penciled on the margin of the page

Genius Poorly Rewarded

The discovery of the correct posi-
ton and physiological function of the
heart, when announced by Andreas
vesalius, the Belgian master of an
atOmy, was received on the one hand
with cold skepticism, and on the 9th
er with hot opposition. Slowly,
grudgingly, the worth of it was rec
ognized. Reward, in proper measure,
was not given. But it provided the
stepping-stone enabling William Har-
vey to discover the circulation of the
blood.
Vesalius was a native of Antwerp,
his period being 1514-1564. At four
teen he was student of medicine in
Louvain; at twenty he was in Venice,
and the year following became public
demonstration at Padua. In Bologna
he gained a professorship and In Pisa
a similar chair. At twenty-eight his
Incompatible treatise ON human an
atomy appeared.-London Graphic.

Each Crop GroDs Better

Most of the cork We make use OF
comes from Spain, although some
other countries of southern Europe OF
northern Africa furnish some.
The first coat of bark to be re-
moved is known as virgin" cork, and
is too coarse to be of much use except
for tanning purposes. After the first
stripping, the operation is repeated
every eight or ten years, as the new
bark forms, and cork of an improved
quality is obtained each time. The
second "crop" is good enough for MAX
ing life belts, insulating material and
the like, but is not sufficiently smooth
and elastic for the manufacture Of
bottle shoppers, which are made from
the best grades of cork only.
A mature tree will yield about 100
to 80 pounds of cork at each strip
ping.

Because Of unwillingness to start
with zero for the first designation of
the east and west roads, No. was
taken for the most northerly road
No. 2 will pass east and west through
uperior and from then on the prom
inent intervals will be numbered by
tens; thus, the next road will be
Government Highway 10 through
Hudson No. 20 through La Crosse,
70, 80 through Prairie du Chen and
No. 40 coming along the lower part
of Wisconsin to hit Dubuque, Iowa.
intervening roads will be numbered
with the numbers running between
the tens as needed.
None of the numbers of the pres
ent state system viii be changed ma
terially, Mr.. Anderson says, but the
government markers will be added:
thus, No. y Of the state highway
system between Menomonie and Hud-
son will undoubtedly be part of No.
10 of the government system and
viii be so doubly designated.
Mr.. Anderson was greatly enthus-
ed over the work of Wayne county,
just outside Of Detroit, in the matter
Of the installation of the superhigh-
7ay and other improvements. The
7ntire Wisconsin delegation was tax
en- on special trip over Wayne
county and complete demonstration
the county work made to them.
The super highway is 240 feet wide
with several SEPARATE roads to take
care Of the various types of traffic.
The county has a secondary highway
100 feet wide and it is possible that
this may be first attempted in the
state along the Blue Mound highway
near Milwaukee, for the delegation
from that part of the state studied
the proposition carefully.

SilUertip ShoDed He
Could Cover Ground

Any one who has seen a bear walk
Knows how SLOWLY he seems to move,
and his run is a shutting, numbering
gait that is comieal to witness, unless
he happens to be running after you.
But a bear moves pretty fast, not
withStanding appearances, and the
grizzly, which looks to be clumsier
than the brown or the black bear, can
cover ground faster than the average
horse.
A western sheep rancher was riding
in the foothills when he saw a big,
awkward silvertip. He had a rifle,
but was not certain he could kill the
bear at one shot and knew that he
would get into trouble if he missed.
SO he gave a regular cowboy yell, and
the bear started away in alarm.
The man gave chase, at the same
time keeping up the piercing yell, and
he soon noticed that the grizzly was
getting farther away He continued
the chase for nearly two miles, until
the bear disappeared in the noun
tains, and he had not gained foot.
In going back over the trail he no
ticed places where the bear had made
jumps of Is or 90 feet, and the ground
had been cut up by his claws, so that
it looked as if a harrow had been run
over it,

THERE'S little Thyra Livingston, a
II really truly" Christmas seal
baby! Except for the brace over
her shoulders no one would ever guess
that this chubby youngster has just
won hard battle with tuberculosis.
For two years Thyra lay in the MIL
waukee Children's hospital, practically
her whole body in cast, In order that
her tuberculOus spine, which already
had begun to show q curviture, might
grow straight. And straight it has
grown.
Thyra's condition, which would I'M
questionably have led to a hunchback
If neglected, was discovered at one Of
the free chest clinics conducted In
Kenosha each week by the Wisconsin
Anti-Tuberculosis Association and f.
nanced by funds raised from the sale
of penny Christmas seals. It is well
known to the medical profession that
crooked backs, commonly called hunch-
backs, are due to tuberculous infec-
ton In childhood, not to falls as par
ents so often believe. Physicians
know, too, that these terrible deformi-
ties and attendant Ills could be pre-
vented If they were discovered In time.
To find such cases as Thyra's before
1t is too late is one Of the activities
paid for by penny Christmas seals.
