appeared in Thursdays Times:
Christmas Forbidden in Massa-
chusetts for % Years-In 1859 the
general court enacted a law pro-
viding "a fine of shillings for
every offense if a body be found
observing, BY abstinence from
work, by celebrating or attending
a religious service such a day
as Christmas day." About this same
time, and even earlier, in England,
the house listened to numerous
renonstrances against Christmas
day, grounded upon divine scrip
lures wherein it was alleged
Christmas was called "Anti-
Christ Masse," in consequence of
which laws we're enacted against
its observance. In 1862 England
repealed such laws, but the Mas
sacl1usetts law was not repealed
until 1851.

TALKIES CRAZE
FAILS TO HALT
.LILYS CAREER
French Actress ConquerS
Language Bar Through
Voice Lessons.

By United Press
HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Dec. 2e.-Lily
Damita is one foreign actress who
did not go home to Europe when the
talkies turned things NopSy y-turvy-
and, take it from Lily-she has no
intention of going home.
II have worked like a dog to con-
quer the talking picture and am
glad I am still on the screen"
This expression by Miss Damita
sums up the determination of the
diminutive actress to stay in her
place in the sun, come what may.
Brought to Hollywood a few years
ago when the foreign craze was at
its peak, Miss Damita soon became
one of the most popular idols on the
screen. And then. as they say in
the movie colony, the talkies came.
Many of the leading actors and
actresses with excellent film require
ments as far as face and figure
went. discovered that. their voices
failed to register or that their
grammar was not what it should
have been.
A number disappeared, especially
those of foreign extraction, while
others were eclipsed temporarily to
rally after tedious struggle with
studies in articulation, pronouncing
and singing.
Lily had a good voice. She could
sing and laugh with the best OF
them. But there was a decided
French accent which blurred into
the microphone and definitely linn
tied her value in production.
One good break came to her, how
ever, when she was cast as the
French girl in "The Cock-eyed
World" The picture proved that
she had almost all of the require
ments for talking pictures.
AS she had learned to swim, ride,
tap dance and even to do acrobatics
for the American silent film, Miss
Damita resolved to conquer the
problems which faced her under the
new regime.
The next step came when she was
offered the starring part in "Sons
o. Guns" which ran in New York
for twenty-six weeks.
Lily liked the part and the money,
but best of all she relished the
chance to talk.
During the period on the stage
she continued her voice lessons and
when the show was finished she was
ready for Hollywood and the talkies.

SUMMER HEAT

President May Call Special
Session at WarmeSt Time
to Wilt Opposition.

BIZ ScripDs-HoWard NcrsDaDcr AlliGHce
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-n in
surgents insist on forcing a special
session Of congress, President Hoo
yer viii fix the date for it in mid
summer, hoping that Washington
heat will wilt the ardor of those
who advocate a lengthy legislative
program
Word to this effect, being passed
along here, has added a new eie-
ment to the controversy already
raging between executive and legis-
lative branches of the government,
between parties jockeying for po-
litical advantage, and between lib
eral and conservative groups in
each.
: special session could be forced
only by flibustering one or more
of the annual approximation bills
providing money for running the
government after July /.
Fear Diiatory Tactics
Hoover could avoid calling the
special session necessary to pass
such a bill until June, and while
he would have no way Of terminal
ing the session, it always has proved
difficult TO keep a quorum of sena-
tors in Washington during the heat
OF summer.
However, senators and representa-
tives who would gather for the new
session would be the newly elected
members Of the seventy-second
congress, who have been waiting to
take office since November, and they
might enter on their duties with
fresh ardor sufficient to ignore the
summer heat.
Any one insurgent could force a
special session by talking or resort
ing to dilatory tactics in the
crowded last days before March 4.
Program Not Accomplished
It seems evident already the pro-
gram Senator Norris outlined for
enactment at this session if Spe-
cial session was to be avoided, will
not be accomplished by the present
congress. This program includes
his Muscle Shoals bill, his lame
duck amendment, the anti-injnc-
ton bill and the Wagner unemploy-
ment bills.
Since then Borah has announced
his belief that congress should not
recess for the summer without
passing on the export debenture
plan for farm relief and pending
measures for regulation Of interstate
buses, interstate power and rail-
roads as we'll as the anti-injunc-
tAn bill.

WALNUT RIDGE, Ark, Dec. 26.--
A native stone grave prepared by

The romance occurred more than
a century ago between a trapper

AT the girls death the trapper
obtained permission from her fam
lily to bury her in the clearing
about his cabin which was to be

This cast last night had the
handicap of "just opening" and the
prompter stood entirely too close to
the audience. Said individual could
be seen. Not necessary.
Most of the cast was nervous.
Some were more than that. But
these people of the cast had the
sincerity. the honesty and the hid
den ability to kill that handicap.
The lines and situations of this
comedy burlesque on the American
family has its many laughs. When
Tom Ross gets the polish of ex-
perience in the role, he will read
into it the needed laughs, not horse
laughs. Quiet, honest comedy against
burlesque background.
The individual that I liked best
in "Jonesy' was Percy Helton as
Wilbur Jones. Last night he was
guilty of some overacting, but
there were many times that he
caught the haunting laugh of this
play and he delivered. This man
can make or break this play, and I
think that when he gets the "busi-
ness with the others of the cast,
he will have no trouble registering
every darn second he is on the stage.
Zannah Cunningham as Mrs.
Jones needs that background of CO.
operation to put over this burlesque
of comedy.
The lines and the situations are
there. The actors will get into
their lines very shortly. Even to-
night the intelligent people of the
cast will handle the situations.
There is something that I want
to say and it has no place in a
review. Yesterday was Christmas.
Roltare Eggleston, manager of En-
glish's, and George E. Wintz who
presents the show, decided that the
nurses of the city, those at the
Riley hospital, the Methodist and
the city and other hospitals should
see "Jonesy." And the invitation
was given. Ard many accepted.

CENTER OF STAR HELD
TO BE LIKE EGG YOLK
Professor PropOunds New Theory off
Nature Of Heavenly Bodies.

By Science Scrrice
LONDON, Dec. 26.-The structure
of star is something like that of
an egg-a dense yolk in the center,
surrounded by lighter material. This
is the new theory proposed by E. A.
Milne, Rouse Ball professor of
mathmatics at oxford university in
a communication to the scientific
magazine Nature.
In the "yolk" the temperatures
are far higher than astronomers
previously have calculated for the
interior of star, he says. His ten
tative estimate is O0,O0OO00,0O0 de-.
grees instead of a mere 100000
degrees, a figure generally accepted
at present.
Furthermore, this nucleus is ex-
tremely dense, as great or even
greater than star like the strange
companion of Siri"s of which a
pint of its material weighs twenty
five tons.

CANADIAN ENGINEER
 BACKS B|G HIGHWAY

"The north country of British
 Columbia and the Yukon Terr- itory are solidly sold on the plan for an Alaskan road" declared George A. Clothier, government mining engineer for mineral survey district No. 6, in a recent interview in Van- couver, where he was attend ing the meetings of the Canad- ian Institute of Mining and M etallurgy.
 : MT. Clothier knows the needs of the north and the geological md geographical features as few men do. For ten years he was engineer in charge of the northern district of B. c. and became thoroughly convinced that but one thing was holding back the territory from the prosperity it's tremendous min- aral resources entitled it to- cheap transportation.
 Premier Tolmie's northern road plan will open up a count ry that would be revelation to residents of southern British Columbia" MT. Clothier de- dared. "The north contains great areas of country known TO be richly mineralized and cheap and easy transportation would not only lead to immed- fate development of these districts, but would bring pros pecting activities that would undoubtedly disclose many ore deposits now unknown" MT. Clothier declared that the cost of a northern road leading from Hazelton would be much less than estimated by people who knew only the southern interiors and coast areas of British Columbia. After the Mass River has been passed, a road leading along the foot hills of the coast range would strike comparatively smooth pleateau country where few problems were presented and exceptionally cheap construct ion possible, he said. 4

It is proposed to continue the tunnel on the Rufus Argenta another 150 feet with a view to striking the promising Erickson vein. This was decided upon by the directors after the fol- lowing encouraging report was received from the contractor, according to a press announce ment in the south.
 Game in from the Argenta today and we are through with 50-foot contract. The format- ion was practically the same from where we started up to the last two rounds, when. in- stead of going with the hill- side, as it did before, now it is going into the hill, or in the right direction according to the surface showings. The rocks are Bear River green stones with specks of hematite iron. The face of the tunnel has never before been looking so promising, but, according to M. M. Reese, mining Engineer, we may have to go at least 100 feet further to reach the vein."

The extraordinary capacity of Outside conservationists for protecting" the wild life of Alaska is being once more demonstrated by the introduct- ion of bills in both houses of Cngress making it unlawful to kill or capture Bald Eagles or to disturb or destroy their nests or eggs, save upon such occas- ions as when the birds happen to be caught in the act of de- stroying wild or tame lambs or lawns, or foxes or fox farms.
 The measures are aimed to protect the birds within the continental United States, Por- to Rico, Hawaii and Alaska with special emphasis on Alas ka- and also prohibits molest- ation of any other species of eagle found in the indicated areas, unless engaged in the depredations- indicatsd. The bills, which are said to have the endorsement of the Nat ional Committee on Wild Life Legislation, provide a maxi mum fine of $100 or 60 days in the calaboose for violation thereof.
