places they are now called comedy
constructors, and the new title has
served 10 reveal their limitations, be-
cause comedy can't be constructed.
1t is either inherent or spontaneous.
The search for IA laugh has reached
the point where the supremacy of the
matinee idol is threatened. Youth ana
physical beauty are no longer prime
requisites.
What's the answer? Nobody knows,
but here's guess. Men who have
been knocked about by life, have
known worry and cares beyond the
average, have retained their ability to
smile. They can still laugh at them
selves and the world, but they don't
do IL derisively. They do 1t with
sympathy and understanding, and the
world likes it.
Comedy and tragedy have been
walking with them through life and
they know each other. 1t remained
for motion picture directors and pro-
ducers to discover the pals together.

WANDA HAWLEY, who plays in
" Combat" became a motion pic
ture actress onh through accident.
Her ambition was TO become an
opera singer. it is said. She studied

After having been understudy in
several operas she suddenly contracted
laryngitis and lost her singing voice.
The control of the octaves was lost
and she was no longer able to reach a
high pitch.
Consequently she answered her
second greatest ambition and went
into pictures. and she was not Ions

World Laugh Over Joke.
Manchester Guardian

From the Manchester Guardian.
English efforts at humor turn prin-
cipally on kisses. unlucky bets, un-
skilled golfers. drunkards md mothers
in.law. Frenchmen laugh at jokes on
soldiers and nurses. frivolous wives,
German tourists. Government matches
and mothers.in-law.
The Germans pet objects of derision
are the professor who forgets his um-
brella. the miss who worships army
officers. the cooks lover, the husband
without latchkey and mothersin-
law. The Italian favorites are the
overfed cleric, the Neapolitan cabby,
women's hats and mothers-in-law.
Americans laugh at almost any
thing, but their chief face contorters
are the common man squashed by a
trust, the stolid Englishman, whisky
labeled lemonade. Italian organ grind
ers. cheap motor ears and-yes, the
last item on all the other lists.

dams on the reservation in commem-
moration Of his exploits as a solitary
raider, one Of the most feared types

Welch.
ION 33 successive nights, he slipped
out through the barbed wire. alone,
and made his way silently to the
German trenches. He brought back q
captive German sentry, or else dead
mans coat, every time.
when discharged, he had two cita-
tions for extraordinary heroism in the
face Of the enemy. and he was re-
ferred to by Marshal Foch as .one Of
the bravest soldiers in the American
service"
Rogers was appointed Sept. %, by
\
Coolidge, to the clerkship in the post
office department ''in view Of valor
and very extraordinary meritorious
service performed"
By special executive order an extra
clerkship was created at the Mandan
postoffice to be filled by Rogers. He
will probably be transferred very
shortly from that to position as city
carrier.
