Kissing DISCOVERED Early

young Cretan fondly embracing a
pretty maid who shyly rests her head
on his shoulder is sculptured on
vase recently exhumed on that Gre
clan isle. 1t proves that kissing was
popular pastime 10 centuries before
Christ and that modern sheiks and
iappers could teach the Cretans moth
ing about the "soul kiss" Ages ago
the Cretan civilization was buried on
this perhaps by an earth
quake. Now excavations are bring
ing to light many evidences Of the
joys. sorrows and loves OF the domes-
tic and social life of It's ancient in
habitants. They were people much
like us.-Capper's Weekly.

Ancients Made Wo-
ga Tooth Troubles

Dental therapeutics dates from a
very remote epoch. 1t is not known
when this art commenced, but it is
well known that the Egyptians prac-
ticed it to a considerable extent. On
a papyrus scroll estimated to date
back 3,700 years before Christ, which
was found buried at the feet of the
god Anubis, there were found written
remedies against painful molars and
a way to alleviate other troubles of
the teeth by means of pulverized
drugs. The art of filling" is very
old. Egyptian mummies have been
found with molar cavities very care
fully closed. Others have artificial
teeth which show that in very an
cient times this dental process was
known. The Chinese cured tooth
ache 2,7O0 years before our era. One
Of their methods was to put iron rust
in the cavities.

Of the tree from the bark Of which IS
prepared the valuable medicine called
quinine. The tree Is a native Of South
America, growing best on the moist
eastern slope Of the Andes mountains,
but 1t has been successfully introduced
into India, Burma. Ceylon and the
West Indies. The bark OF this tree

wide use in the practice Of medicine.

New Dover opera House. Dover

Monday and Tuesday-Men are be-
wailing the ever increasing cost of
tonsorial establishment, and the
gnashing Of teeth can be heard far
and wide every time the barber adds
another ten cents to the price of a
hair cut; but how would you like to
pay the premium on an insurance pol
icy for $250,000 for single hair cut
The largest policy ever written for
five hundred feet Of film negative was
the policy purchased by the Jackie
Coogan Company to cover the hair
cutting scene in the little Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer stars latest picture,
Johnny Get Your Hair Cut" The
shearing of the famous Dutch Bob
took place after most of the film had
been completed. A huge sum had
been expended on the production up to
that moment, and a large cast of
players were on full salary pending
the outcome of the hair cut Had
anything gone amiss in the barber
shop scene, it would have meant that
Jackie's hair would have to grow out
again-a process which would have
consumed another month, with the
overhead on its dizzy upward flight.
The story conceived by Gerald Beau
mont and produced under the personal
supervision of Jack Coogan, Sr., marks
the passing of Jackie Coogan from
babyhood to boyhood. The trans
formation of the screens famous child
star is amazing
The great success of the annual
Halloween Masque parade held at the
New Dover Opera House and the in
terest manifested by the theatre go

prompted the management to inaugu-
rate similar entertainment for St.

18th. The merchants of Dover are
already making arrangement to offer
several fine prizes to the many con
testants who will dance and sing in
the st. Valentines party. An excep-
tionally well balanced evenings en-
tertainment is being arranged and the
patrons Of the New Dover Opera
House can look forward to spending
a very enjoyable evening. The con

Beauty and Good

Indeed, the beautiful is insepara-
bly, united to the good and the true.
+. for the very nature of the
sense of beauty is such that through
it we gain clearer concept of the
other two values. The history of the
race has shown that at the height of
materialistic success, the desire for
artistic enjoyment has been a potent
factor in bringing people back to
the higher ideals which underlie O
peaceful intercourse between nations.

Aesthetic Attitude"

MANY LOCAL PEOPLE In
FILMING LASKY PICTURE

Filming of the Drums of the Des-
ert," Zane Grey story, by the Famous
Players -Lasky company is in full
swing at the Gap trading post in the
Painted Desert 95 miles northeast of
Flagstaff.
Joe Lee, veteran Indian trader, sent
out runners the last of last week for
Indians wanted for local color, and
they began to arrive last Sunday, oc-
cupying nearby hogans and pitching
camp near the post and movie city.
The motion picture camp is located
on the broad flat across Willow
Springs wash opposite the trading
post, well planned tent city with all
possible conveniences. A population
of about $50 is there now.
Several Of the stars arrived Sunday.
For most of them, this is their first
taste of life reduced to its simplest
factors in this unique setting. The
Indian supers, on the contrary, wore
a blase air, due to their participation
in former moving picture productions.
Lee Doyle and his transportation
force were on the jump day and night
taking out supplies. Every available
truck in town was working the first
of the week. Sixty truck loads had
gone from Flagstaff up to Tuesday
noon, and more each day following.
The light snow here Wednesday did
not extend to the desert, though
cloudy skies halted filming for day
or so.

RODENT CONTROL EXPERT
POISONING PORCUPINES

e. E. Horn, rodent control expert of
the II. S. biological survey, who spent
several summers here studying the
life history of the porcupine in con-
junction with DR.. Walter P. Taylor,
came last week from Phoenix, his
headquarters for Arizona, New Mexico
and Colorado. He went back the first
of the week for his wife and they will
be stationed at Southwest forest ex-
pertinent station here all summer.
Investigations carried out during
three successive summers and corre-
lated this past year proved to Mr..
Horns satisfaction that porcupines
are detrimental to young forest
growth. He is studying and expert
menting with methods of exterminat-
ing them. With w. J. Osborn he one
day last week went around Al noun
tain south Of the station, killing 27. A
study of the stomach contents showed
the principal diet at this time of year
is bark from young trees. Many
kinds Of poison bait were tried. The
only success had was with poisoned
salt. This they placed in crevices and
caves among the rocks where it could
not reached by live stock. The prob
lem now is to discover practical and
economical method Of poisoning the
porcupines.

FLAGSTAFF GUN BLUB
LOST TO DENVER; NOW
in TIE FOR SECOND

All the old reliables hit slump
Sunday, and Flagstaff Gun club lost
to Denver, simultaneously toppling
from its proud tie for first place to a
three-cornered tie for second place.
The chances for pulling into the
lead again are slim. Had Flagstaff
won Sunday, it would almost beyond
question have been awarded the tour
ney cup, for though it was tied for
first with Phoenix and Yuma in the
those clubs With only few more
shoots before the end of the tourney
and those against weak clubs, Flag
staff had nothing much to do except
to beat Denver last Sunday. But it
didn't.
Phoenix also toppled from the three
cornered tie for first place in the per-
centage column to tie for second
place, Yuma, the third in the trium-
verate Of top-notch clubs, defeating
Phoenix Sunday.
Sundays results:
Yuma 1876, Phoenix 1913.
Jerome 1875, Fort Collins 118.
Denver 123, Flagstaff 122.
Walsenburg 122, Sagauche, not re-
