cause some others have pursued that
course. it may be feared that we
shall embark upon a program of mill
tary aggrandizement.
Such, however, is not the spirit
of the American people. If. even
where our national interests and the
protection of the rights of our citi-
zens are involved, we attempt to as
sist in composing difficulties and
supporting international law, we
must expect to be charged with i'm
perialistic motives.
In our international intercourse
we must hold ourselves up to high
standards of justice and equity. We
should be slow to take offense and
quick to grant redress. The world
knows that the whole genius of
America calls it to the support Of
the universal rights of humanity"

BOWbells Banker
in Supreme Court

Arguments will be heard during
the May term of the supreme court
in the case of J. G. Johnson, Bow
bells banker, convicted of embezzle-
ment and sentenced to term of
from one to five years in the peni-
Tertiary.
The appeal is taken by Johnson
from the Ward county district court
where the case was tried on change
Of venue. Errors of law and of fact
are charged in the appeal. The
record shows that Johnson was in
dicted by a Burke county grand jury
in January, 1925, and was found
guilty on February 20, 1926.
Argument also will be heard dur
ing the May term in the case of
Carl Krantz, who is appealing from
judgment Of guilty on second
degree rape charge. This appeal
also is from Ward county. krantz
charges errors of law occurring ut
the trial and that the verdict of the
jury was contrary to the evidence.

Why She Reverted
to Feminine Type

Although Mrs. Elsie Redfern was an
ardent worker in the cause of women's
suffrage, she is entirely out of SYM
pathy with the masculine trend of the
modern girl. Indeed, she advocates
drastic methods to win back the vogue
Of longer hair and longer skirts.
More people should employ the Joe
Brown method" she states.

ally sailing westward to Honolulu where he took
the leadership of the Royal Hawaiian Band Of
Honolulu.
But the motion picture had already begun to
attract Mr.. Lasky's attention, and in 1914, he
formed the Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play Company.
Almost at once did the picturizations of well
known plays command public and expert interest,
among them The Rose of the Rancho, The Girl
Of the Golden West, The Warrens of Virginia, and
of course-ths picture that caught the fancy of
Adolph luxor The Squaw Man.
When the combination of Adolph Zukor's Fa-
nous Players with the Lasky Feature Play organt
kation took place Mr.. Lasky became First Vice
President, a post he has since occupied. His
activities are those of production director.
Wcsterner Plays Big Part
Sidney R. Kent, general manager of Famous
Players, stands as an example Of success achieved
through hard work. He is Western boy; and
no sooner had his grammar school course been
completed than he was confronted with the neces-
sity of making the intimate acquaintance Of work
His family lived in Lincoln Nebraska, where for
three successive years the youthful Kent helped
to stoke three boilers Of q greenhouse from
o'clock every night until the next morning.
The writer worked a ADMINISTRATORS with
Sidney Kent, several years later, in Milwaukee.
It was that experience that makes 1t possible to
record the sort of man Sidney Kent Is :.
though the occurrence was of twenty years ago.
The picture now is clear in the minds eye: The
chief job in hand nj the time was unloading
cement and lime frcR down in the holds Of large
Lake freighters. Kent could always be counted
on to lift carry morn than his share of the load
and do 1t with a smile.
Out in Wyoming, Kents willingness to carry
more than his share OF the load made him Super
fntendent Of a coal mine employing 500 men.
But mining, though interesting, did not Undue
Kent with the urge to continue at it for the re-
mainder OF his life. For in 1912, he was at
tracted to a position the Pacific Coast with the
American Druggists Syndicate. In three months
Kent had been made assistant sales-manager and
throughout the remaining three and a half years
of his association with that concern Kent was
put in personal charge Of the entire business-as
assistant to the President.
It was by the merest chance that he found his
way into the movies" through the suggestion Of
friend. Fool that 1 was" observed Kent, ct
didn't know the first thing about the game; just
Numbered into it" Yet there Is query attached
to Kents query: why, then, didn't he blunder
out?" The concluding and conclusive answer
would appear to be that finally he had found the
square hole into which his squareness man
perfectly fitted. On January s, 1921, Adolph
Zukor-fnding the position of General Manager
open-cast his observing eyes in just one direo-
ton; to the place where Sidney Kent stoo&

the arguments of the general oppose

Zukor himself does not remember, but It was
an amount approximattng one or the other What
was Of pressing Importance, however, was to find
work TO do. He entered the fur business as q
cutter Of various skins.
Time passed. and with It accomplishments,
since partnership had been arranged by Mr..
luxor and a friend which moved gradually to
cess. But the spirit of enterprise burned steadily
in the mind Of this imaginative man. and in 1908
the possibilities of the penny-arcade amusement
enterprise appealed to him that he formed a
partnership with Mitchell Mark Gradually the
chain OF these places grew, first In city then
in others. And then one day, visiting Pittsburgh,
Mr.. luxor went into motion picture for the first
time in his life. 1t one owned by Harry
Davis in what known among Ptttsburghers
as Diamond Alley.
One may trace lightly the events which carried
this resourceful man from that day to the one
when, as motion picture short-reel subjects devel-
oped, Adolph luxor was fred with another idea
He foresaw the possibility Of longer and more pre-
tentious films; features, less, were dancing in
the minds eyes of his brain
Filming Great Dramas
1t in 1911 and almost In the tw1nkling Of
an eye came word that Sarah Bernhard was pre-
pared to accept engagement to appear in a
filmed version OF Queen Elizabeth. The sum Of
$4,000 stipulated as the amount to be put
into the production, in return for which Mr. luxor
and his partner were to be given the American
and Canadian rights to the picture. The contract
was signed payment of half the amount named
and the remainder was paid over when the pic
ture was begun.
II proved an instantaneous success. Mr.. Zukor
then turned to James K Hackett, suggesting that
this then famous actor appear in a film version
of THE Prisoner Of Zenda." No longer was there
any vestige OF doubt concerning the practicable
ness of the Zukor ideas and ideals. Novel after
novel was adapted for filming, completed and
shown And then something else happened.
CHANGING to the picture Jesse L. Lasky had
made in California Of The Squaw Man." Mr.
luxor was impressed sufficiently to wire his con-
CALCULATIONS to the producer. Not long after
ward the two men combined their enterprises
and the upward march went on.
The career OF Jesse L. Lasky, first vice-Presi-
dent Of the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation,
has high lights in plenty-which followed, one
might observe some shadows that went before
He was born in San Francisco and educated in the
grammar schools Of that city. Following his high
school graduation, Mr.. Lasky became q reporter
on a San Francisco newspaper where he was occu-
pied when the first Alaskan gold rush occurred
Enthused by the possibilities, Mr.. Lasky joined
the northwardboun pilgrims and was one Of the
first OF the one hundred men TO reach Nome. But
