WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
 Hii WIFE WANTS RON ANCE?

What happens when a middle aged wife thinks her husband old fashioned and no longer the ar dent lover of their courtship days, isn shown in highly divertina manner in Slaves of Beauty" at the Liberty Sunday.
 There is a sermon in this pie ture. sugar coated with laughs. it is true, but nevertheless ser mon, which both wives and hus- bands may take to heart
 The story of Slaves of Beauty was written by Nina Wilcox Put nam. one of Americas foremost writers, and transferred to the screen under the direction of a master of comedy-drama, J. c. Blystone And then cast of screen favorites including Olive Tell, Earle Foxe, Richard Wallng, Margaret Livingstone and others live the life of their characters with whole-hearted sincerity. So the complete result is d photo play that keeps an audience ab- sorbed every moment of ths show ing of the picture.
 Laughter. thrills and suspense, and very interesting scenes of what is done to achieve beauty by middle aged flappers in New York's famous beauty parlors, are a feature of this fine entertain- ment

 It is estimated that there are more than 100000 square miles of treeless regions which could pro. vide pasturage for 4,000.000 rein deer. The herds have already in creased beyond the de1nGhds of the natives and the present prob lem is that of finding an outside market for the meat.

NOME, 1.:s..s... ::...-Alaska's rein deer herds, which began with the importation of few animals from Siberia in 1890. have increased to more than 631 .000 animals.
 Latest estimates sent to the Alaska division of the bureau of education show that more than 12S.000 reindeer are owned by the 13 native cooperative organiza- tions developed by the Eskimos
 Early in the development of the reindeer. business the natives found there was decided advan- tage in the consolidation of their herds. Cooperative organizations patterned after the government cooperative stores in the terri tory soon resulted. The co-opera- tive consolidated the herds under a common brand. work was di- vided and sales were made from the general herd. the money being put into fund which was di. vided at given periods.
 In the Kuskokwim district. near Akriak, one of the largest round ups in the history of the terri tory has been conducted to count the animals and determine own ership preparatory to the forma- tion of two additional co-opera- tive companies, one an Eskimo or ganization to run some 15,000 ami mals and the other an organiza- tion of Laplanders to run 25,G00 deer. The 1928 count in the other districts will be made during the annual roundups in May.
 Because of the rapid increase in herds and large consultations it has been necessary for the Secre- tary of the Interior to obtain legis- lation giving him power to define grazing districts to prevent dis putes oyer range.
 The reindeer service has be- come an important part of the educational system for the terri tory, the raising of reindeer being the form of industrial education

WHITE NO HELP

Perhaps it is just we'll for the Republican can
dldate Tor president that his wel-meaning but exct-
able friend William Allen White has departed for Eu-
rope to remain there until after the campaign has
closed.
The Kansas editor did no good either to the Repub-
mean cause or to himself by his attack on Governor
Smith of New York recently After charging the gov
ernor with opposing measures tending to eliminate
gambling, prostitution and the saloon White withdrew
ms charges as to the first two but insisted the third
charge still stands.
A man who admits he is two-thirds wrong should
not be surprised If many persons, his friends be-
lleVe hlm to be all wrong. Withdrawing charges espe-
cally in political campaign is something that never
should be done That is to say charges which cannot
be backed by unlimited proof and made to stick should
not be made at all.
If Mr.. Hoover is to be given assistance such as
White offered he may yet be saying before the cam
palgn IS over, Deliver me from my friends, my ene-
mics could do worse"
Nor does the Kansas editors action in departing
Tor Europe to remain until the campaign is over, aid
the Republican cause any, except that it prevents him
from meddling any No matter how far back
such trip may have been planned, in the particular
instance it savors very much of the action of small
boy who sets fire. and when it gets away from his
troll, ducks under remain hiding until the fire
out.

Mystery is the new basis for com.
edy on the screen.
Strange shadows and half lights,
curtains that engulf victims who
vanish into nothingness, mummies
in painted eoffins, secret under
ground ; grottoes and mysterious
criminals-these are some of the de-
tails of the most hilarious comedy
in the history of Karl Dane and
George X. Arthur, heroes of Rock
les and other joint efforts at hill
arity.
This is the new Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer comedy thriller 'Detec-
tives," which comes to the Aifdome
tomorrow night and in which the
comedy team appears in the midst
of whirlpool of strange adventure.
Dane as a Chick hotel detective
and Arthur as a bellboy who longs
to be Il sleuth, start on the trail of
a "master criminal" and their ad-
ventures, mis-advcntures, and hair
raising experiences form the comedy
angle. The story itself is n
- straight mystery thriller, every
situation being played seriously, the
laughs being gained by the blund-
ering of the amateur sleuths into
nests of flying knives, secret trap
doors, mummy cases, and so on.
Dane gets wrapped up like a mum
nv and hides in coffin to ensnarc
the crook-then cant get out. Ar
thur emulates Julian Eltinge and
makes up as a pretty girl to fooi
his pursuers.
Marceline Day is hidden in a
mummy ease, is about to be operat-
ed on. to take away her memory, IN
secret underground surgery, and
the sinister villain is finally routed
bv the valiant bellboy. The entire
play is a broad comedy of errors on
the part of the heroes of " Rook-
les" and something entirely ne"
in comedy construction. Chester
NJ. Franklin, who directed 1t, and
Robert Lord are responsible for the
story.
Marcolue Day plays the heroine
as Il hotel stcnographcr and Tenen
lIoltz, Polly Moran, Clarence Llyc,
Tctsu Komai and others of note are
in the cast.

CRIME DOESN'T PAY

Tuesday morning bandit walked into Los An
gees bank before had opened for business and after
tying up two employees who had arrived early, sat
down to await the arrival of the remainder of the bank
force.
One by they came in, he tied up the employ
until he had ten of them helpless Two forced
to open the bank vault and the bandit escaped with
$4,000. 1t easy. He made a clean getaway and
doubtless chucked to himself he thought of many
dubs working along day after day for pttance, while
1t easy to get fortune in few minutes.
If he did, his chuckle changed to something
ese for less than "a hours after his neat little job he
under arrest and all of the loot returned to the
bank He will get plenty of time to think it in the
big stone house at San Quentin Maybe.
Shortly after this bandit (who incidentally has
unpronounceabe name) into action, another ban
dit operating in another bank. He too, made his
escape with his loot, and doubtless chuckled at his
smartness, but the chase unusually hot and he
forced to leave his car following crash into an
other. Taking refuge in park he surrounded by
officers and received wounds which caused his death
in hospital short time later
Before dying this second bandit confessed it
his first job
Such incidents as these will do to prevent
robberies, and stop immature youths from entering
into life of crime than whole volume of sermons.
The latter are likely to be forgotten considered
merely "od folks talk There is something really
convincing about smoking gun, red hot lead and
marble slab in a morgue.

Removal of Date
Palms Due To
Scale Infec ton

Removal of many date palms
from city streets, and cutting the
branches of others, has caused con
siderable comment among local resi-
dents. who do not like to see any
trees removed where they are so
few.
Inquiry into the matter brought
forth information from the farm
advisor 5 office that the trees were
found to be infected with scale, fol,
lowing an examination by \. j.
Shamblin, of the government date
station at lndiO.
Fearing that the scale might
spread and infect commercial orch
ards in the valley. it was decided to
remove such trees as were badly in
fected. In other cases, where the
progress of the scale can be arrest
ed, it is thought that cutting the in
facted branches may correct the sit
uation.
Several fine-looking trees in the
vicinity of Seventh and State street
have had TO be removed because OF
of the infcstation of scale.
