Scurvy Fatal to Many.

More than 1000 men have lost their
lives in trying to reach the North Pole
and considerable percentage of these
died from scurvy. Now that aviation
| is available for explorers, 1 believe the
South Pole and the Antarctic con-
tinent viii be conquered with very
much smaller toll of life.
! We believe it is advisable to COM
bine airplane with foot and dog team
exploration in the Antarctic region.
These two should work very well to-
gether.
OF course, during our exploring we
hope to reach the South Pole with our
plane. This may be n little difficult
because at that altitude in that region
the air is so rarified that it makes
landing more difficult. And since the
South Pole is land. we hope to stay
therc a day or two for scientific OBJ
serVa don.
From the bases for dog teams and
planes, wiricsl we pan to lay dowT

BEN HUR" EMBODIES
THE GLORY OF ROME

"Ben-Hur," the S4,000,000 picture
which will be presented at the Iris
theatre beginning Friday, November
25, portrays the glory of the ancient
Romans with a magnitude and mag
nificance unequalled by any previous
spectacle of stage or screen.
The Romans excelled in war, ath-
letie powess and speed contests on the
chariot race course. In the first-nam-
ed, "Ben-Hur" shows a sea battle off
Nisenum, in which more than hum
hundred Greek and Roman ships are
engaged. The Romans defeat the
Greeks but not without the loss of the
head trireme to the piratical Greeks
who ram and board the ship, kill the
crew, then set fire to the disabled,
sinking craft. This is the most terrify-
ing action ever shown in a picture.
For racetrack thrills, nothing can
compare with the great Chariot Race
scene. In the Roman mode a chariot
course was built with half mile laps.
and this was surrounded by a Circus
Maximus with seating capacity OF
100000 spectators, the whole guarded
BY great gladiatorial figures in the
heroic style Of sculpture and orna-
mented with Roman eagles, warriors
and amazons by The artists Carmelo
Barbara and Carlos Romeneli.
Twelve quadrigas or four-horse
chariots enter the race, which is seven
times around the course. Midway
there is wreck, in which several of
the teams, drivers and chariots are
piled one upon another. 1t is Ben
Hur and Messala's race-duel toward
the finish. Messala's wheel is torn
off, he is smashed beneath his chariot
and his team. The other goes on to
win amidst the plaudits of the vast
crowd.
Among the chief favorites Of the
Italian people during the Roman film
ing were Ramon Novarro, the hand
some young picture star of Latin
type, who plays the role Of Ben-Hur,
and Carmel Myers who enacts the
Egyptian siren Iras.

The RED CROSS

In every city, town, hamlet and
country side during the past two
weeks, volunteers of our nation have
been soliciting membership in that
great charitable, helpful, philanthro-
pic army known as the American Red
Cross Society.
As in the past the burden was plae-
ed ON the shoulders of the noble
women of cur country, and why? I
think it is because the pain and
anguish Of war ard the calamities in
eidental to peace fall heaviest on
women. To her must come the agony
of seeing her husband and sons march
away to the dangers Of conflict. the
dirt and disease O. the camp, the
perils and pestilenee that follow the
march Of armies and the disasters Of
battle.
To her must come the duty Of main
tanning the home and of battling for
the little ones dependent on her love
and energy. Hers are the long days
Of waiting for that sad hour when her
manned and wounded dear ones come
back to her or are brought back to
her-mayhap on stretchers or in
coffins.
Yes, hers are the waiting hours, the
anguish of uncertainty, the agony of
doubt, the pain Of separation, the
pangs of silence and its unknown pos
sibilities.
Far from the glamor and glory Of
battle she works in the shuddering
shambles Of the conflicts aftermath,
working with a courage and calm
worthy Of the most heroic, facing
sights calculated 70 chill the hearts
Of the bravest, soothing fevered brows
to life, lessening the pains and moist
ening the thirsting lips Of the wound
ed and dying who were destined tC
taste glory and death in the conflict
of war
But the American Red eros:
is not primarily a war time organiza-
ton. 1t ministers to the unfortunate
