ELTINGE THEATRE

Karl Dane and George K. Arthur
are together again in "All At Sea"
which comes to the Eltinge theatre
Monday.
After this famous pair Of funsters
made "Brotherly Love-" they were
separated for awhile, Dane playing
with william Haines In Alias Jimmy
Valentine" and Arthur taking a vaca-
ton jaunt to Europe.
This new co-starring vehicle, which
brings them together again, is from
the pen OF Byron Morgan, who
started Dane and Arthur in joint
comedies when he wrote Rockies"
for them last year. The new laugh
maker is a story Of navy life.

his credit. among them Excuse Me-
and Don't" directed.
The film Is replete with thrills as
well as laughs, q sixteen-inch gun
target practice and q spectacular ar
senal explosion furnishing hair -rais-
ing moments Of suspense. There Is
also thrilling and melodramatic
fire, which calls out . mob Of marine
extras to quench It. During this Sc
quence both Dane and Arthur make
some spectacular rescues.

WHY DON'T YOU GET MARRIED?
HUNDREDS ASK VICE PRESIDENT
Marriage Easier Said Than
Done, Chuckles Curtis as
Letters Pour In
AMAZED At SOCIAL FuRoRe
Mrs. Gam Is Accorded Same
Precedence at Dinner as
Though She Were Wife

Washington, April l3.-(P)-"P. S.
Why don't you get married?"
In the hundreds Of letters which
poured into the office OF Vice Presi-
dent Curtis during his controversies
with the state department over the
social status Of his sister and desig-
mated hostess, Mrs. Edward Everett
Gam, this naive suggestion was found
more than once.
The idea always struck the broadly
developed sense Of humor Of the vice
president, but his only response was
q clluckle and an occasional reflection
that marriage was one of those things
that were easier said than done.
Now that it Is all over and he has
won for his sister equal recognition
with himself at official dinners, which
was denied her by the ruling Of for
mer Secretary Kellogg, the usually
quiet Charles Curtis is realizing that
his first declaration as vice president
created real stir.
Starts Public Storm
just looking over his increasing
stack Of mail was enough to convince
him that he had said and done some
thing which at least was attracting
attention. Intent at righting what he
considered q slight to his sister, he
had not counted on public storm,
and now he is amazed at the wide
spread interest. The vast majority Of
his correspondents supported him.
Friends of the veteran Kansan
have insisted all along that he was
actuated only by loyalty to family
and to office In his public fight for
social precedence for his sister, and
he confirms that view in private con-
versation. But he is now wondering
II the publicity will ever end.
He and Mrs. Gam will entertain ut
a reception for the diplomatic corps
tonight, one of the few official func.
lions which is not affected by the
dispute over her social rank, Is her
status as hostess in the vice preSi-
dents establishment was never at
issue.
Accorded High Rank
At the first official dinner which
was affected by the situation Mrs.
Gam last night was accorded the
same precedence she would have re-
ceived II she had been the wife Of the
vice president. This was in accord

600 RAMD0U|LLET
EWES ALLOTTED TO
BURLEIGH COUNTY
Farmers Desiring Any Of Ami.
mails Can Arrange for Agri.
cultural Credit Loans
DELIVERY IN JUNE AND JULY
Cost to Be About $3.50 a Head,
Financed and Delivered,
{ Says Agent Miesen

The campaign for the increase OF
the sheep flocks Of the state Will De
continued this year all over the state
by the extension service. So far in
three years, this program has resulted
in adding about 10000 head to the
sheep holdings In North Dakota.
The first step in the activities here
this year will be to apportion 600 head
of ycarling ewes to Burleigh county
farmers. These have been set aside
for the county out OF 5000 head
bought in Washington by the Nor
thcrn Pacific Railway agricultural de-
partment, working In cooperation
with the Agricultural Credit corpora
ton.
The methods of handling the sheep
will be tho same this year as In the
past. The buying and selling will be
conducted through the Agricultural
Credit corporation.
{ Farmers desiring sheep should get
IN touch with A. r. Micsen, county
agent, and make known the number
desired to add to their flocks. Or
they can through their banks get In
touch with the Credit corporation
and arrange for the necessary loan
to tide over the transaction.
A small down payment Is required
and the remainder is payable with
interest in three years, the sheep be-
ing assigned as security. The sheep
will be delivered in June and July by
the Northern Pacific livestock de-
partment out Of the 5000 head bought
by the road and the Credit corpora
ton in Washington, all Of which are
high-grade Rambouillets.
Owing to the limited number Of
sheep available at this time for Bur-
leigh county. 1t is necessary that any
farmer being especially DESTROYS Of
increasing his flock should make
immediate inquiry through the county
agent or through his home bank. The
first applications will be accommo-
dated and when the sheep are all
apportioned. late Corners will be un-
able to get any.
These probably are the best ewes
ever brought into the state. They are
from eastern Washington. from close

healthy. They are larger than the
type Burleigh county has been get
ting heretofore, but they cost about
the same as those provided last fall.
While they are nearly all Rambouil-
lets. there are some blackfaced Hamp-
shires for those who want that breed.
The specific cost of these ewes will
be about $3.50 financed and de-
livered here.
A new ruling Of the Credit corpor-
alton requires that all loans be ap-
proved In plenty Of time in advance
OF the sheep transaction. Otherwise
1t will be impossible to get an allot-
ment. Agent Miesen strongly urges
that farmers make their applications
as soon as possible.
June delivery Is earlier than usual.
This is due to the fact that the ex-
tension service. the railroad and the
Credit corporation were able to obtain
such good ewes. It was decided to
take no chances but buy them al
once and put on the campaign for
increasing the Dakota flocks.

A Hollow Victory,

Mai. H. o. D. Segrave goes back to
England holder of the worlds speed
record on land and water, but 1t Is
probable that the water championship
Is of small value to the daring British
sportsman. Maj. Segrave was beaten
Yesterday in the second heat Of his
challenge race with Gar Wood, yet, by
a system of scoring which is difficult
for the layman to understand, he was
accorded victor over Wood because the
American pilot was forced out of We'd
nesday's heat BY winning on Wednes-
day the Britisher received 400 points.
Wood did not finish, so received no
points. Wood won yesterday and ac-
quired 400 points. while Maj. Segrave
was second, thereby earning 36l points,
giving him q total Of 76l against 400
and the award of the championship
trophy.
This hollow victory is undoubtedly as
disappointing to the Britisher as to the
Americans who had hoped that Wood
could retain the title. One of the finest
sportsmen of the age, Maj Segrave
can find little satisfaction in showing
q high speed in one heat of only 81
miles an hour and finishing the second
heat at an average of only a. miles,
when the Wood boat, while 1t was in
commission. on the first day, roared
around the course at better than IS
miles ana Anished yesterdays heat at
