Show Lenln Film.

After short recess a motion pic
ture made up of scenes from Lenin's
life was thrown on the screen. The
second half, made up mainly of the
funeral scenes was quite well assem-
bled, and the awe-inspiring emotional
effect of the hundreds of thousands of
workers and comrades who passed the
bier to pay respects to the dead leader
communicated itself so potently to the
audience that for at least five minutes
after the close of the picture the en-
tire audience sat motionless in their
seats, the silence in the vast theater
was the stiffness of the tomb. The
majority of those present had them
selves gone thru the experiences pic
tured on the screen, and so perfect
was its reproduction that they again
lived thru that awesome hour of grief
There followed another intermission
and then a musical program by the
theater. chorus. Lenin's favorite song
was sung, and several that had been
written about him. Russian meetings
are almost inevitably built on this
pattern-one or two speeches suited
to the occasion-and then a lighter
program interspersed with intermis-
sion so that those who do not care to
stay until the end can leave without
disturbance.
Living Newspaper
In many of the smaller celebrations
this enlivening of the meeting pro-
grams is effected by the "Zhivaya Gaz-
eta" or Living Newspaper" A
group of worker-actors, generally
young Communists, organize them
selves into a BLUE Blouse" Tor red, or
green, etc., blouse) dramatic circle.
They take their name from the uni
form color of smock worn by all men,
bers of the group. Then in the form
of solo and chorus speaking and sing
ing; interspersed with acting, drills
and gymnastic work, they give the
news of the day. The animated car
toons are, of course, the most interest
ing and effective part of the program
precisely as in printed papers. or
course there is a young folks corner
in which the Young Pioneer" group
puts on a little paper" of its own.
This form of entertainment is a spe-
cial product of the left dramatic tend
encies of post-revolutionary Russia
and the Esprit, dash, coordination and
forethought that these worker groups
put into their performances is just an
other indication of the depth to which
the revolution has penetrated the con-
sciousness of all proletarian elements.

Discovery OF Volue

the island Of Trinidad a few tiny
grasslike plants In a ribbon canefield.
The Englishman, delighted that he

plants to his home garden, and I'm due

One of these new varieties was car

Value Bunrblebees
at WEIGHT i'm Gold

Bumblebees are worth much more
every day to the United States than
all our gold mines. Yes. they are worth
more than all gold and silver mines
together even IL you multiply the
mines by two. You can rate the bum
blebees at about $SO0,OO0,OO0.
Perhaps you did not know IL, but
we owe our clover hay crop to the
bumblebee. And our clover is worth
more than $500. 100000 every year.
When Uncle Sam tried to introduce
red clover In the Philippines he made
a big discovery. Red clover would not
reproduce itself in those islands
1t took considerable time to find out
the reason for that failure was abb
sence Of bumblebees. These buzZing
toilers are the chaps who fertilize red
clover-distribute the pollen and 50

And no insect except the humble
bee with his abnormally long tongue
can do that little trick in red clover

When Uncle Sam took a cargo Of
bumblebees out to Manila the job OF
raising red clover hay in the Philip
pines was accomplished. - Philadei-

Juniper Tree Older
Than King Solomon

There il something about an ancient
tree that wins our reverence whether
we know much about trees or not. And
sometimes one of these veterans -
found of such age that we seek il
vain for a word that expresses our
feelings about 1t.
In Logan canyon, Utah, a knotted
old juniper has very recently been dis
covered; the men of science say that
it had reached a vigorous life before
King Solomon was born. A student
in the Utah agricultural college dis
covered 1t. The tree is still growing,
its roots imbedded in rock at an ele-
walton of 1900 feet above sea level |;
1t is about forty-four feet high. The
old tree has been taking its nourish-
ment from the limestone cliff for 1900
years. All that time this noble vet
eran has fought lonely but victorious
fight against wind and storm and
drought. Through its long struggle
the old juniper has acquired such
strength that it is actually breaking
apart the ledge on which it grows and
gradually pushing several tons OF
rocky material away from the edge
the cliff. The national forest serv-
ice has been asked to protect this
tough old settler from the souvenir
hunters, by surrounding it with q
strong steel fence-Youth's Com
panion.

the first description Of the silhou-
cite which they portrayed in

Personally we have little faith in

same unpopularity as the elaborated

Tubular Outline
May Never Return
One-Piece Mode Is Revived ;
Waistline Is Demanding
Attention.

The prophets who leap before they
look have cOnjured up dire pictures Of
the mode, hastily doubling in its tracks
and scurrying back toward straight
line tubularity as a result Of the Paris
midseason showings. writes a Paris
fashion correspondent In the New York
Herald-Tribune. AS an earnest of
this so-called reaction. they point TO
four salient features Of the winter
opcnings-the decided modifying of
the hemline fare and the occasional
straight silhouette; the looser, or
straight, bodice frequently replacing
the nodded species; the sudden come
back Of the One-piece dress, and its
evident challenge to the popular two
piece style; the unexpected popularity
OF black at Longchamp and Paris. On
the face OF it, the return to the peren-
NAL mode of last year and several
years preceding sounds plausible
enough. In point Of fact, nothing could
be further from the truth, and the on
ward march Of fashion is proceeding
calmly and undisturbed
The original departure from simple
tubularity was commonly credited to
the hemline flare, because the hem
line flare was the first significant
change in the pre-war silhouette. There
Is euphony and picturesQueness
about the phrase which made it the i'm
mediate slogan Of the left wing dis
senters, who were then trying to lead
the mode from its placid ways. AS a
matter of fact, the hemline flare was
always more significant as a gesture
than as style, and though the new
fashion cycle was inspired by it, it
was hardly based upon it. The dean
Of the new styles, 1t was inevitable
that 1t should be the first to pass, and
its partial eclipse is evolution, not
devolution. In place Of the hemline
dare there is coming a skirt intricacy
which will sometimes involve varying
degrees Of distension, but whose claim
to smartness will rest less on the ia
nous staccato flare than on various
other treatments which will affect the
entire silhouette Straight and simple
skirts are not approaching a renais-
sance, and the modes for late winter.
spring, Palm Beach, and the Riviera
will utterly preclude that ancient
theme from the ranks.
Concerning the Loose Bodice.
The nodded bodice, whose passing
also has been hastily decreed by ardent
revivalists of the pencil silhouette. has
been replaced TO some extent by
looser lines. which create straighter ef-
fects. Never as popular numerically
MS the hemline flare. its age Is almost
as great, and its occasional displace-
ment is not surprising. At the midsea-
son showings in Paris the straight bod
ice was offered in fair numbers by
such eminent cOuturiers as Lanvin,
Patou, Jenny, Philippe ct CASTOR and
Lelong. Not, Of course, to the total
exclusion of the nodded lines, but at
least with sufficient strength and fire.

SYMBOL of Liberty

The Phrygian cap, or liberty cap.
was a peaked headdress worn by the
ancient Phrygians. and when placed
upon the heads Of slaves became a
token Of their freedom, thus becoming
a symbol Of liberty. During the
French revolution it was made the
mark Of patriot" and Louis XVI
was compelled to wear it in order to
show his agreement with the peoples
desires. The cap appears on the head
of the goddess of liberty on some OF
the coins Of e-United States, and has
also been adopted by some foreign
countries and included in their coats
of arms
