Clara Bow Stomp
New Dance Step,
In Arcadia Film
Los Angeles has put one over 0.

Los Angeles has put n over on
New York.
The worlds greatest city, where
the charleston" BLACK Bottom"
and the VARSITY Drag" had their
popular emanation, cannot lay claim
to the discovery Of the new dance
that bids fair to sweep the country,
the "Clara Bow Stomp"
How the new dance was discovered
Is perhaps the most unique in the
history of new dance creations. II
all happened during the filming OF a
scene for "The Fleets I'M Clara
Bows latest starring film, which IS
the current attraction this week at
the Arcadia theater, Harrington.
The particular scene in question
was laid in a danes hall. Miss Bow,
portraying the role Of a dance hall
hostess, and James Hall. who essays
the part Of a naval "gob" were ask
ed by Malcolm st. Clair. the director
TO do a dance that would be differ
emit from the rest, as the couple
were supposed to be competing tor
a loving cup.
Now Miss Bow is a very capable
ball room dancer, and James Hall
was formerly n Of the shining
lights Of the "Follies." When the
orchestra struck up q snappy tune,
the couple glided away while the
cameras ground out the exposed film.
With the directors instructions IN
mind. Miss Bow and Hall started IN
to do something different
They were so engrossed in Great
ing the steps to their dance that they
were entirely oblivious 20 anything
Use. Finally ST. Clair stopped them.
e Say" he exclaimed. whats the
Z zig idea? | didn't ask for a mara
e-ghoh!"
ooh. that's all right" responded
Hall, we've got a new dance-the
Clara Bow stomp " was his after
thought.
In every dance hall in Los Angeles
it's the "Clara Bow Stomp" now.
Reports have it that in San Francis
co, Portland and Seattle, the dance is
becoming exceedingly popular. 1t j.
only a question or time until the en-
tire country will have seen the dance,
and, according to dancing masters.
thre is little doubt also that the
dance itself Will become more popu-
lar than its predecessors.

The wreck of the Fred J. Wood which has been q landmark at the Missionn for the last five years, is being demolished for the wood it contains. The first storm of sum- mer will doubtless break up what remains, and another landmark will have passed.
 Rev. E. H. Dahle of Igloo has spent several weeks at the Mission preparing a class of 13 native chill dren or confirmation. The class was publicly examined for two ser vices proceeding confirmation. Sun day. Aypril goth. The same even ing, one of the mission girls, Lucy Nunnesarlook was married to An drew Tocktoo. Several visitors were over from Teller to help eel ebrate at the festivities of the day.
 The Mission Board of the Nor wegian Lutheran Church of Ameri- ca, will erect a new mission station at Shishmaref. The natives at this large village have asked for a res
 ident missionary for many years. When Rev Dahle visited there in February the Eskimos unanimous ly decida, to petition the Board again for station. In answer to Wireless message, the Board re- piled that missionary will be sta tioned there as soon as possible. This Church body has two mis- sion stations on Seward Peninsula:
 an orphanage at Teller now caring for more than 40 children. and a station at Igloo. Missionaries from 1 these stations have visited Shishma ref periodically for many years. | Plans for the new station have
 been prepared, and it is possible
 that material for its erection may
 be sent in this summer. It is also
 probable that the mission secre-
 tary, Dr. c. s. Hoel of Minneapolis.
 will be in this summer to locate
 the station.

FARM BILL AND MERCHANT
 MARINE BILL FOR SIGNING

WASHINGTON. (P) - The Mo Eary-Haugen Farm Bill and the Jones-White Merchant Marine Bill have both passed through Congress and are awaiting their entry into the White House.
 Much speculation is being indulg ed in as to what kind of a recep- tion the President will accord the two long debated bills. The Presi- dent will get both bills as soon as Vice-President Dawes and Speaker Longworth have attached their sig natures.
 It is generally believed that Pres ident Coolidge will veto the Farm Relief Bill, although the measure has changed considerably since last year. But the bill still provides a Farm Board and huge revolvine g fund to aid the farmers in market ing their crops and still carries the much debated equalization fee.
 The fate of the Shipping bill is also in doubt but it is believed that President Coolidge will approve the measure.
 The bill authorizes big replace meut program for the Government Merchant Marine. and requires the sanction of but five out of the sev- el members of the United States Skipping Board for the sale of yes sels to private interests.
