The FABULOUS TOAD.

Mr.. ROSENWALD'S GIFTS.
PICTURES AND VOICE.
; ~ Arthur E3risbane

A horned toad, known to news
paper readers as Rip Van Winkle. is
supposed to have lived more than
thirty years in a corner stone without
air, water or food.
The toad has been seen by many,
including the President. Some be-
heve the yarn. The President has
mol committed himself When th,,
toad was placed ON the Presidents
desk neither said a word
Now the toad's owner heightens
interest, saying that in his dark, air
less cornerstone the toad sat next to
|. Bible, and that noble book s1labled
him to hold out. Many will believe
that. 1t is a credulous human race.
In few days Germany will elect
a new ReicjsStag, and thirty-one diff
terent parties will fight for the seats.
These include two Catholic, two So
cialist, two Nationalist, three Com
munistic, and three Anti-Semitic
parties.
In America we have only two par
ties that count, and our people can
hardly keep track of them. Not ten
in hundred could tell what either
wants or plans.
Fortunate the country with little
political excitement. 1t is quiet, be-
cause it is doing well.
The success Of the individual is
often the good fortune of the many.
Julius Rosenwald, who began with
a public school education, courage
and the desire to help others, has
established fund "for the benefit OF
humanity" recently adding $20O0,0O0
TO other gifts now in excess of
$20,O00000.
Mr.. Rosenwald gives the money to
trustees for the public benefit, and
imposes only one condition, that "all
the money shall be spent, principal
and interest, within twenty-five years
of Mr.. Rosenwald's death"
May that death be long postponed.

will be transferred to places where
good voices can be found.
New York State has signed a.check
for $33,723,734, the biggest ever
drawn by the richest State. The best
part of it is that the money will be
spent for public schools.
Not long ago every State spent
more for prisons than for public
schools, and nothing at all for public
libraries. There is progress.
Art objects, from the Bronze Age,
and pottery made by Philistines are
dug up in Palestine.
1t is impossible to realize what it
meant to the human race when the
ancients discovered, probably by ac-
cident, how to get copper from ore,
and went travelling over the earth in
search of it.
Centuries ago, boats sailed eau
tiously from Mediterranean ports,
keeping in sight of land, having no
compass.
Bold Phoenicians from the eastern
end of the inland sea, traders that
sold Solomon some of the wonderful
things he put into his temple, sailed
through the Straits of Gibraltar, in
to the wild Atlantic, using stars in
place of a compass, pushing on to
what we call the British Islands.
That was wonder.
Yesterday the Italian fiier, Umber-
to Mobile, in his dirigible, It0IsG,
started through the air for the North
Pole, but was forced back by fog
and a gale. He took with him a
cross, 6 feet long, to be dropped as
near to the Pole as possible, and the
flag of Pope Plus.

BROTHER OF RUPERT HUGHES #8
MARRIES RUTH STONEHOUSE.
Felix Hughes Married in Tia Juana Secretly to Film
Actress Who Was Former Douglas Girl

An article appearing in a coast
city paper announces the marriage
of Ruth Stonehouse, formerly of
Douglas. to Felix Hughes, brother
of Rupert Hughes, novelist.
Mrs. Hughes was the daughter of
j. w. Stonehouse, who at one time
was engaged in the sign painting
business in Douglas. Mr. Stonehouse
was a recent visitor here from his
present home in Denver and is now
in Tucson on business but viii re-
turn to Douglas shortly.
Mrs. Hughes is the Ruth stone
house that was SO popular as a
screen actress a decade ago and she
met Mr.. Hughes, who is al vocal
instructor, several years ago when
she was at the height of her! career.
Although their romance began years
ago and their engagement had been
rulnored about the film colony of
Hollywood, even their most intimate
friends we're surprised to learn OF
their secret marriage in Tlajuaraa.
According to word received by
Rupert Hughes they are spending
their honeymoon in San Diego and
will probably return to Los Angeles
within week or ten days.

DRAMA DEAN
SAYS ART is
STAGE need

NEW YORK RJ.-"The American
theater of Americans" is the slogan
that David Belasco, veteran dramatist
and theatrical producer, would install
in all American Rialtos.
This theory of national conscious
ness and unity in matters pertaining
to the stage is the thing that Belasco
believes will make the American stage
successful artistic as well as COM
mercial enterprise.
''The year 1927" he said, looking
tc outlet for next year, in the light Of
last years acconaplis hments, "has been
enc Of the bleakestr from an artistic
Standpoint Of any that i can remen-
ber. esag
''We Americans have been slipping
and slipping fast asg far as really fine
theatrical productions we overGo ever
thing. During the year 1927 no play
was considered a real success unless
it. had at least one good murder in it.
Murders and death are all very
well, but the thing has been overdone.
''The prospect for next year doesn't
look much better, either. There will
be just as many stories Oh gangland
and bootlegging warfares and just as
many good juicy murders. But event
ually this will have to stop, and as this
country gets older and gets farther
and farther away from the tragic
effects of the war, the finer the more
subtle, and the more artistic will the
drama become"
The producer bowed his well-known
shock OF white hair and decried the
present tendency toward realism, but
raised it Immediately to disclose 6.
pair Of glittering black eyes and to
admit vigorously that the modern
American producer is lawfully smart. .
