which makes Gabbo star.
In short: Ben Hecht gave 1.-THE Great
Gabbo" all the potentialities it needed
when he wrote his original story; Eric
Won Stroheim and Betty CompSon do
about as much as they can as its lead
ing players, but James CruZe, director,
evidently slowed things up with his ap-
parent efforts to garland the story it
self with pace-tripping shots of every
thing that went on on that cinema

And the final climax comes with an
ahruptness that is startling. Neverthe-
less. Barbara Stanwyck finds plenty of
opportunity to demonstrate her talent
as an emotional actress, and does a
splendid piece of work, supported ad-
rnirably by the finesSe of La ROGUE and
the charming righteousness OF the love-
ly Bronson. Boyd is adequate in the

for which his wife stands accused

Mintaring Farm Horses.

The farm horse should be wintered
economically, but kept in thrifty
condition. 1t is bad management to
let the horse lose weight in the win
ter and then feed him heavily just
before the rush of spring work. The
liberal use of roughages, supple
mented with other nutritious feed,
will keep the horse thrifty during
the winter. Farm horses, except
brood mares or growing stock, do
we'll on a ration made up chiefly of
the coarser hays, straw, or corn fod-
der. Cornstalk fields, grain-stubble
fields, or pastures which were not
grazed closely in summer, may well
furnished most of the winter feed.
The drinking of large amount of
pure water will increase the utiliza-
ton of the roughages.

God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old,
He fashioned her smile from the sun
light,
He moulded her heart of pure gold
In her eyes he placed the starlight
For all the world to see,
God made a wonderful mother,
And he gave that wonderful
mother to me.
