making something out of nothing it is going to be easier for wives to make something out of the boobs they marry.
 Daughters idea of the height of absurdity is for father to think they ought not get things they want just because they can't pay for those they've already got.
 Though young people may en- dure being loved, they absolutely refuse to be trained-but you can bet they want to be supported.
 If very much depended on our finding him we'd rather look for an honest man than one who can carry an umbrella over his wife to suit her.
 The flappers won't have gone the whole distance of absurdity until they start painting little eye brow mustaches on their upper lips in imitation of those worn by their boy friends.
 Ads appeal to some women be- cause they advertise bargains, and others read them just because il helps them feel that much sorrier for themselves for having married fools who cant earn enough to provide spending sprees.
 A lot of little flappers have paint on their cheeks and lips who should be getting a hair brush on another part of them.
 Not all husbands are false alarms-some are so good even their mothers-in-law think they are the berries.
 Another thing that is about as useful as a cookbook to can opening wife is lounging rob, to a man who is dragged out L. the movies every night.
 A lot of men who live decently and have the respect of the com munity are considered nitwits by their relations because they cant earn enough money to help out their kin when they get in tight place.

Too Many Ships on the Lakes.
(New York World.l

Suit has been brought by the Federal Govern ment against some twenty steamship companies on the Great Lakes for alleged violation of the antitrust laws. It is charged that they have entered into an agreement to accept no grain cargoes until May 1, or about two weeks after the opening of lake navigation, and that they plan to curtail the shipping at either end by two weeks so as to reduce shipping facili- ties and make it possible to charge higher rates
 The Governments suit brings out the fact that lake shipping is facing the same sort of trouble which in recent years has afflicted so many American industries. It has been over developed. The shipowners maintain that a shorter season will give all ships employment without producing cut-throat competition The graln-shippers insist that relief lies in the elim-
 nation of the obsolete ships which are re- sponsbe for high average of operating costs
 All this is strikingly like the controversies which have arisen within and around the oil and the soft-coa industries. There are too many ships, just as there are too many coal mines ana too many oil wells and some of them are better than the others To weed out the least efficient seems to be the remedy, but how to do it is real problem.

ONLY MINORITY OF CHURCHES ARE UNWORTHY.

It will probably be admitted by those nnbelievers who are intolerantly prejudiced against the churches that only minority of them are making politics large part of their work. However, that minority, it must be admitted even by friendly critics, is so large and active that it is affecting the work of all of them. If the churches that are in politics would get out and stick to religion the Mems Church League would find more hopeful situation and it's rehabilita- tion task less formidable.
 However, this question, like most others, is one that will adjust itself The churches of the United States will not continue on the down grade. They will get out of politics They will soon stop trying to save the world through carrying elections and passing laws. They will cease to rely force. They will return to the methods*of the Man of Nazareth and depend upon

Still Guessing.

MY own reaction to the first test
made for talking pictures, of course,
deeply interested me. One senses, i'm
mediately he goes to work before the
microphone, that there is q certain
adjustment necessary from the old order
of things Screen technique must be
changed but little, but the use of the
voice naturally eliminates some OF the
pantomime that in the silent film has
carried through to an audience. And
yet to make matters little more con-
fusing, one must always bear in mind
that there will be thousands of theaters
where the picture win be shown with
out dialogue, and the players action
must conform to this situation
Some of our cleverest stage per-
formers, who can convey a thought
with a little gesture-maybe just a
motion of the hand. for example-will
find the camera perhaps blinded when
it comes to recording these gestures and
getting them over to an audience. On
the other hand, in a picture closeup a
wink of an eye might get over what a
hundred lines wouldn't do on the stage.
"One whose entire training has been
along the motion picture lines will have
difficulty in talking pictures through
lack of stage technique. Separately,
neither stage nor screen experience en-
tirely qualities one for talking pictures,
as far as 1 have observed from my per-
sonai experience. Together. plus screen
personality, they form the ideal combi-
nation. The hundreds in pictures who
have had both stage and screen expert
ence can adapt themselves readily to
the talking pictures. Those who have
had only screen training will have to
acquire stage presence and diction,
though I do not feel that lack Of stage
experience is an overwhelming handi-
cap,
I'm fact, I think those who face. the
most serious problem IN talking pictures
are those who lack screen technique"

Mr.. Darling claims to be direct de-
scendant OF Grace Darling, daughter OF
an English lighthouse keeper, who be-
came famous about a century ago for
the number of lives she saved during
terrible storms. Songs and stories have
celebrated her exploits.
Darling contesses that, so far as he
is concerned. his own love for the sea
received a finishing blow when at the
age of 9 he crossed the. Atlantic to go
to school in Scotland, and the vessel
on which he had passage went from
one terrific storm into another.

A THOUGH 1t is making sound and
dialogue pictures by the score there
is no doubt that the motion picture in
dustry is still at sea as to what is es-
sential to the success OF dialogue PIC
lures.
Public curiosity apparently has not
yet abated, and the picture houses
seem to be enjoying their usual patron
age, but nevertheless thought in the
industry where thinking Is to be ex-
pected continues to be employed IN
quest of that something which is Stlll
necessary to make the dialogue picture
what it should be.
Harold Lloyd, one of the most sue
cessful OF the screen comedians, De.
cause Lloyd is clever thinker as Wen
as a deyiser of something to make them
laugh. has evidently been thinking
lately. and he is credited with some
conclusions upon the subject.
Here is what he has had to say:
"I can readily see now why come OF
our foremost stage favoriteS not only
dread appearing in talking pictures,
but have unsuccesSfully tried them.
Talking before the camera and to an
audience represents two entirely olf-
ferent reactions Speaking into a
phonograph record. without having
camera trained on you, is still another.
Good voice and diction, and might
say acting, will not by themselves con-
stitute success in talking pictures" de-
clares Mr. Lloyd.
There will be isolated instances. and
We have seen them, where popular
favorites of the stage who failed to
make good In pictures prior to the ad-
vent of the sound films have since
succeeded in the talking pictures. But
these instances are few.
THE dominating ingredient for sue
cess in talking pictures will remain as
Il always has been, screen personality.
The voice will be secondary.

Milestone Re-Ensased.

HOWARD HUGHES, president Of the
Caddo Co.. has renewed his con-
tracts with Lewis Milestone, the direc-
tor, and Louis Wolheim, character ace,
thus refuting rumors of his retirement
from the picture business following
completion of "HeTs Angels" the
$4,000. 900 aviation classic.
After "Hell's Angels" is completed,
1t is stated, Milestone and Wolheim
will appear In future Howard Hughes
productions. Meanwhile. they are be-
ing loaned to other producing organiza-
tions.
Milestone is one of the director sem
sations of Hollywood. He made two Of
the Caddo Co.'S outstanding releases.
Two Arabian knights and "The
Racket" and at present is directing
the newest Emil Jannings picture for
Paramount.
Wolheim, even before his triumphs
in 1.-TWO Arabian knights" and THE
Racket" became one of the most popu-
lar character actors of the screen. He
is one of the most-sought-after per-
formers In pictures today.
