AS GREAT
PICTURE

'sRhino," one of the most re-
markable pictures of its kind ever
filmed, was witnessed by an IN
terested audience at the Washing

cession of thrilling eisodes, it de-
tails the hunt. with gun ana
camera for the famed and almost
mythical white rhinoceros in the
jungles of Africa. :.
There is nothing of the staged

Just a startling example OF the
daring of the cameraman IN
bringing a record Of strange life
and thrilling adventure 10 the
screen. One cannot see the fea-
ture without paying mental trip

lives in shooting II.
Here we see a battle between
two enraged monsters of the wild

brains of the human pitted against
the deadly powers Of a hippopota'

find the king Of the jungle roar

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
by DE-. LOuis e. Bisch

%Dy LIE AUWAS lie DASNAA~-s
KHEW realize that the body it.
self manufactures q tremen-
dous amount OF heat which is radi-
ated through the skin. and that
clothing should be selected for the
purpose either OF holding this heat
in or letting it dissipate itself
through the meshes Of the gar
ments worn.
1t stands to reason, therefore,
that in Winter we should try to
hold on to some of this heat so
as to keep us comfortably warm
while in summer it is best to let
GO of 1t, since the atmosphere out
side the body is supplying even
more heat than we desire.
Wool is the best all-round ma
terial for winter use because it is
a, bad conductor Of heat. That is,
heat is not lost rhrough its meshes.
Cotton and. linen, on the other
hand, are good conductors of heat.
That is why they are best adapted
for summer wear
The kind of clothing to be worn
is also connected with the moisture
in the air. Wool quickly absorbs
moisture and for this reason again
! it is ideal for winter.
Silk is being used more and more
for Ilndergarments. especially by
women. Silk is light and soft and
like wool, is a poor conductor OF
heat. In summer; although cotton
conducts heat better, silk feels
often more agreeable.
Generally speaking. it is wise TO
wear as light garments as possible
A pure wool garment. for instance
is not as heavy as one OF wool
mixed with cotton, yet it protects
better.
Men undoubtedly wear clothes
that are too thick and heavy in
summer as well as in winter.
Women have been most sensible in
this respect in recent years. They
wear Surprisingly little, yet feel
comfortable.
It the body becomes overheated
and cannot rddiate its surplus
heat through the garments worn,
irritability, uneasiness and fatigue
result. The best plan is to wear
light materials for suitings and
underweaT, but a heavy coat. even
of fur il necessary, for out-oL-
door use. Then when you enter
a steam-heated-and so often a
Observation-Disclosures building or
Apartment, you can easily adjust
your wearing apparel to the con-
ditions.
Mothers still cling rather stub
bornly to the notion that their
babies and young children must
be warmly clad. In consequence
they bundle them up with wooiens
and flannels far in excess OF what
is healthy.
Children of all ages. as well as
adults, should wear as little as
possible. Give the pores chance
to breathe. Tougher the system
little by little, so that it can
withstand occasional draughts ana
sudden changes in temperature.
Colds can be reduced markedly
by attention to proper clothing.
The color of our clothing is also
important as regards its absorb
ton of the suns rays.
White ahsorbs less than any
other color and that explains why
it is so desirable for the tropics or
for the dog days" Of mid-sum'
mer.
The experiments of Pettenkofer
revealed the fact that II white
cloth absorbed 100 units Of heat,
dark, yellow absorbed 140, dark
green 1853, light blue 1913, and
black EOS.
BE careful also of tight or bind
ing clothing. Your garments
ought to be able to slide smoothly

SAYINGS OF
MRS. SOL ONION
BY Helen Rowland

- AAsSA~Ah ASNS y - - -
AIoW, my daughter, when
IN my years were few and my
illusions many. there came unto
me a youth who scoffed at my wis.
dom. saying:
Wherefore, oh, woman, dost
thou adjure men to marry? For
thou knowest in thine heart that
thou baitest them for their own
undoing"
Behold, / am a bachelor, un-
repentant-bu NOT too beautiful
to kill? Yet, for my single blessed
ness / offer no apology.
i" For 10, have not all the COM
forts of a sweet home life-at
HALF the expense? Yea, verify,
even three good meals a day and
a bachelor flat, which overfloweth
with cushions and ash trays and
photographs, and the burnt offer
ings of many damsels!
Moreover, in the Summer I
can go forth in mine own sport
car into the wilderness, without
having to pawn mine overocat.
And in the Winter I can go unto
my club without having to perJure
my soul.
''Verily, verify, my life is like
unto a seven-course dinner. For
on Monday, / may find inspiration
with a high-browed damsel; and
on Tuesday, ] may enjoy dalliance
with a vamp; and on Wednesday
/ may dance with the fIappers-
and variety is my portion.
'tBut a married man must talk
domestic economy every day and
enjoy kissing the SAME woman
every evening OF his life!
"And my one fear is not that
I shall die q bachelor. but that |
shall awaken from this DREAM"
And I said, Even so. my Son,
even So"
But it came to pass, lin time,
that the hairs dropped, one by one,
from the head of the bachelor,
until his forehead shone as an arc
light And from much good eat
ing and drinking and a life with.
out WORRIES, he waxed round
and pudgy, and his chins increased.
And 10, the flappers who had
once rejoiced in his dancing, now
Uttered at his approach; and the
maidens who had once thrilled at
his glance, now yawned behind
their hands at his ardor.. For his
Zine" was of ancient vintage.
And he that had once done his
counting in A fiivver, now found
that it required a limousine and
orchids to make a fat man fas-
cinating!
Then he came unto me saying,
AT last, would / marry and settle
down. For variety hath become
monotony unto me. But how shall
/ choose a Wife?'
And ! answered him, saving: My
Son, for the eligible man, there are
always GOOD fish in the sea-but.
peradventure the BAIT hath
grown stale. Therefore, / adjure
thee, tarry not. but we'd ANY
woman who will have thee! For
the buds Of the Nation are not
collecting antiques! And he that
refuseth the loaf of Love in his
youth, must later content himself
with the crumbs. For no man can
live all his days without LOVE!
And a man without wife Is as a
ieft.hand COVE without a mate"

marks that Helen likes them
rough. So, he does his best to play
the part. He talks like q stevedol'e,
boasts of various dark ventures
and steps Helen around in a dizzy
maze.
They marry and for brief
period the pretense Is maintained.
Then it becomes unbearable.
Helen's soul rebels against four
walls and twenty-four hours of
husband. Henry refuses to be
dragged away from his easy chair
and slippers and insists on choos-
ing the new wallpaper. They are
both consumed by q fury to be
Themselves. And each is highly
indignant when the others per-
fidy is exposed. Why did she pre-
tend TO love homework when she
didn't? Why did he act like a
Regular Guy when he wasn't?
They feel that they have been
tricked by each other, but they
have really been tricked by their
own lies. And the lies were prob
ably quite needless. They were
really attracted to each other.
Their differences of nature could
have been adjusted if they had
faced them frankly. They could
have built generous and original
plan for their marriage il they had
been honest. But instead they
told stupid lies and made an inn
possible plan for their lives.
There is an old story of man
who built his house on the shift
ing sands. And when the storm
and the wind came the house was
wrecked because it had no sure
foundation. Lies are sand which
shifts when most you need a
steady foundation.

Florence Cole-Talbert, recognized

Theatre by Professor l.. L. McGruder
for the benefit of Sojourner Truth
Home.
Mrs. Cole-Talbert, gifted with a
fine soprano voice, sang in impress
sive style and upheld her reputation
as one of Americas foremost prima
donnas. She interpreted the loved
aria, "Verdure Clad" tHavdenl with
taste and reverence. The Mozart
'Alleluia" was pictured by her as a
song of praise. =.
Mrs. Cole-Talbert was superb in
her rendition of big Lady Moon"
(Taylor) and "Slumber Song" Not
ably and perhaps her best voice work
was in her rendition of four spiri-
tuals. particularly "Jesus Sittin' on
the Water Side" (White) and Balm

scented by Mrs. Cole-Talbert was ad-
mirably interpreted. The singer was
admirably supported by Myron

paniment added much to the success

ton, what Is This So Wondrous,'
