Friday and Saturday - Thomas
Meighan is authority for the state
ment that the filming of ''The Can
adian," his new Paramount picture,
required more walking than any other
picture he has ever made. Scenes
were shot in the foothills of the Rock
les in Alberta, Canada. Alberta be-
gins at the northern boundary of the
United States. On the east, it starts
where Saskatchewan leaves off and
stops in the Rocky Mountains. Some
body once made a map and decided
that it should have north, south, east
and west roads dotting each square
mile. Most of them are purely i'm
aginary. Others can be seen with the
naked eye because no wheat grows on
them, and still others are traversed
by automobiles with daring drivers.

Of battleships, directed by radio from
the flagship, and each ocean fortress
obeying the orders Of a screen direc-
tor, just ige a trained actor, was the
remarkable achievement, through CO.
operation of the United States Gov
ernment, by which the most spectacu-
lar sea warfare ever filmed was made,
for "Tell 1t To The Marines" epic of
the Marine Corps. The entire Pacific
feet, including superdreadnaughts,
battle cruisers, destroyers, and tor
pedo boats, took place in the mighty
scene, which was made during the
forced battle maneuvers Of the fleet.
This is one Of several huge spectacles
in the new Metro-Goldwyn-M Mayer pic
ture, filmed with the official co-opera-
tion Of the United States government
as the true and intimate story of life
in the Marine Corps. Hundreds Of
regular Marines take part in sensa-
tional battles in Oriental locales,
thrilling battle practice with huge
battleship guns and other exciting de-
tail. Broad comedy in the initiation
Of a recruit into the service, and a
romance between the recruit and a
navy nurse are light touches in the
gripping drama.

According to officials of the Secre-

drivers just now. 1t has been the ex-

in the past that drunken drivers us

has been a steady increase in the
numbers of persons who while intox-
icated attempt to operate motor We

ent regulations being issued to JUS
tees Of the Peace throughout the
State. Drunken drivers who have had
their licenses revoked, have, in many
instances, made practice Of appear
ing before magistrate and asking
for license. They have paid the reg
ulation fee and have received a re-
ceipt from the magistrate and have
been informed that until their license
arrived from the Secretary of States
Office in Dover, they could operate a
car on the magistrates receipt This
privilege, however, has been revoked.
Secretary Of State Grantland an
nounced that all magistrates have
been informed that they must not
give prospective drivers to under
stand they could operate car on the
magistrates receipts but must wait
for their license. The State highway
police have also been notified to pick
up any man or woman found operat-
ing a car without the regulation III

British Museum Mail
Yields Rare Articles

The mail man with the most inter
esting route in the world is the one
who drops his bag at the British Mu-
scum each morning. And the con-
tents of that bag make far and away
the most extraordinary postal delivery
received by any one in England.
Each delivery is a .veritable grabbag
in curios. Gems, stones, arrowheads.
old books, rubbish, shells, bits of
leather, fossils, postage stamps, live
animals, stomachs picked in alcohol,
coins, butterflies, weapons, bones
this Is the sort of rag-bag collection
which the museum officials discover
with almost grotesque excitement
upon opening the mail in the morning.
Though there is seldom anything OF
decided value, the mass OF stun is
always sorted out and weeded care
fully for any rare and valuable curio.
Most of the senders expect no
acknowledgment or reward--in fact,
there is no return address on many
of the parcels. Evidently they do 1t
for fun. But is it? Ask the postman.

Soviet's Gold Mining
Machinery Worn Out

Individual gold miners and private
companies that were in Siberia before
the World War are now encouraged
to return to the Soviet Union on ac-
count of the blight of that most pros
porous of occupations under govern
ment operation.
According to Comrade Ignatiev,
chief of the mining department of the
supreme commission of national econ
omy, the machinery which the state
nationalized has worn out and new
exploitation of the gold regions has
ceased. The output for the fiscal year
1885 was $4,000 Kilograms Ia kilo-
gram is about 2h pounds), or only "a
per cent of the 60, 1897 Kilograms mined
in 1913.
With customary Soviet astrological
accuracy for the future the depart
ment has figured out already that the
output in 1929 will be 46,5S6 kilo-
grams.

Rikisha Boys Guard
Their License Plates

Chinese traffic police have their
hands full in managing the rikisha
boys, who disregard all the rules of
the road when they can get away
with it and often when they cannot.
The other day traffic officer,
Chinese, seized the license plate from
the back of rikisha whose puller'
had infringed a regulation. The boy.
he was an unhappy, ill-favored
young man with pock-marked face
did not show fright, but he started
to bawl-that is the right word. The
seizure of the license plate or the
cushion is the traffic officers way of
ruling the rikisha pest. The boy
rents the vehicle for the day and
must return 1t with both license plate
and cushion, or he forfeits this means
of subsistence, If he loses either he
must go to the police court to recover
1t. There he must pay a small fine.
