ROMANTIC DRAMA
NOW AT APOLLO

Illustrating once again the age-old
theory that love contains more than
a little touch of madness with its
proverbial blindness, Their Mad
Moment" Fox films romance of
Basque life and love, featuring War
ner Baxter and Dorothy Mackaill,
opens today at the Apollo theater.
The story is the picture version
Of Eleanor Mercein's widely-read
novel, "Basquerie," which was

set Of pleasure seekers who haunt
the beaches, gambling casinos and
luxurious hotels Of southern Eu-
rope during the husband hunting
season. 1t is while engaged in this
never-ening search that Dorothy

Baxter, whom she believes to be
penniless peasant.
Her engagement to q. titled Enr-
1shman is announced soon there
after by her scheming stepmother,
who is mainly responsible for Doro-
thy's desire to make a wealthy
match. But the girl, warned by
zasu Pitts, in the role of close
friend, Of the folly Of throwing
away romance is tormented by the
thought Of giving Baxter up for
ever.
She agrees to his plea that she
accompany him to his mountain
farm, thinking the trip will be a
romantic interlude before her i'm
pending marriage. There follows
dramatic twist in the story that
brings Their Mad Moment to a
surprising climax.
The picture was directed by Ham
ilton MacFadden and Chandler
Sprague. Nance O'Neil has the role
Of La Mere. Bakers grandmother,
while Zasuitts is seen in her usual
fine portrayal. Lawrence Grant is

II Take This Woman" is the first
picture starring Carole Lombard
since her marriage to william Pow
ell. She plays opposite Gary Coop
er and is supported by such players
as Helen Ware, Lester Vail, Charles
Trowbridge and Clara Blandick. The
story is taken from Mary Roberts
Rinehart's Lost Ecstasy"
The former Miss Lombard is cast
as a wealthy and spoiled New York
girl who, IN wild search for thrills,
handles her family name with care
less abandon. Desperate for some
method Of control, the father sends
her to western ranch.
On arriving there, however, she
found the magic Of her family name
meant little and that every one Is
taken for face value" This is first
driven home when she Is nubbed by
one of the ranch employees, Gary
Cooper, and she determines to win
his heart and then jilt him as pun
ishment. The manner in which she
falls victim to her own trap
keeps the story moving briskly to a
surprising climax.

81 Miles North of Staples I'm

While her mother and her moth
er's sister were picking blue berries
in the dense pine woods northeast
of the Ed Smith farm north of
Staples, little Evelyn Fiesler, year
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.
Ffesler, became separated from the
party and the result was a twenty
two hour search for the little one.
The party was picking berries
and shortly after nine o'clock it
was discovered that little Evelyn
was missing. Thinking that she
must be near at hand, the women
in the party searched for some
time before they gave up the
search and went to get help to car
ry on the work. Relatives and
nearby neighbors gathered at the
scene and during the afternoon
hours worked diligently but to no
avail. With night coming on it

Minnesota Threshers Must
Insure Their Employees
Compensation Law Requires That
Protection Must Be Provided
in This State

Although having been on our
statute books, for several years,
quite number of people are ap-
parently still ignorant of the fact
that Minnesota's compensation law
places the liability of employees on
the commercial threshermen and
bailers of this state.
Believing it of sufficient import
ance for many of our readers, the
Herald herewith publishes the facts
in the case:
Commercial threshermen and
commercial bailers are included in
the provisions of Part II of Min.
nesota's Workmen's Compensation
act, and are liable Hereunder fol
injuries sustained by thir EN-.
ployes.
Chapter 81, General Laws OF
1928, says: Commercial thresher.
men and commercial bailers are
hereby defined to be persons going
about from place to place, thresh.

The first searchers from the city
spent a few hours of daylight left
and then a further call for help was
sent to this city. The vanguard of
more than hundred men and boys
began to arrive at the scene at
about 8:15 P. NJ, and getting the
party organized made their first
trip in the direction in which the
child was supposed to have gone
After a tramp of two miles or more
through the heavy jack pine trees
and brush, they returned to the
large. camp fire which had been
built as an aid to returning search
ing parties.
~All through the night parties were
organized and continued to search
During the night some of the
searchers journied to Brainerd
where they solicited the aid OF
Mrs. Shields, clairvoyant, who
told them that the child might be
found within a short distance from
an old house which was near the
scene of the child's disappearance
Early morning searching parties
redoubled their efforts as soon as II
was light enough for good work
The work was facilitated much
with the coming of daylight and IL
was at about $50 o'clock that the
child was found in the tall grass
that bordered slough just a trifle
less than a quarter Of mile south
and east of where she was last seen
Searching parties the night before
had gone up to the high grass which
surrounded the slough several times
but because of darkness had been
unable to see the child only a few
feet from them.
The child was found by Manley
Cunningham, of Staples, who was q
member of one Of the parties car
rying on the early morning work
It is needless to say that the par.
ents were overjoyed to find the
youngster, little the worse for its
experience.
uc PCOpic VI IuC community dlO
from Staples responded to the call
for help and came into the woods
to a total of about 200, mostly mer
and boys. There is no mistake that
the right spirit was shown in the
untiring effort of the volunteer
searchers and the parents of the
child have asked us to convey their
sincere thanks for everything that
was done in thir behalf.
There is also a humorous side to
this incident, in the fact that sever.
al of the searchers, although well
acquainted with the district, were
lost during the night. The night
was dark after the moon had dis
appeared, the trees and underbrust
were in some places just a tangle
and more than one searcher who
thought, he knew his stuff was lost
or left the camp only to circle fol
a few minutes and find himself
right back where he started

Stronghold of Blue Laws Loses
to Sunday Fishing

Fishing on Sunday has now been
approved by legislative enactment
and New England conscience In
Massachusetts,, the state noted for
it's beans, Bostonians and Blue
laws, according to bulletin of the
American Game Association. Hunt
ing on Sunday is still illegal.
Massachusetts, is one Of the last
of the states to give way to de-
mand for Sunday fishing. The de-
mand has been growing in volume
for a number of years, as anglers
increased and voiced heir desire to
seek recreation on weekends- the
only time open to many. ~
Pennsylvania is another of the
eastern states where fishing on Sum
day is prohibited. A bill to permit
it has been presented by sportsmen
at every legislative assembly fol
many years, and killed. Pennsyll

corn, or bailing hay or straw, re-
spectively, as a business"
This chapter has been held to
include threshermen and bailers,
who receive remuneration for their
services. However, so-called com
pany" threshermen, i. e., groups Of
farmers, who jointly own their out
fits and thresh or bail for each 9TH
err, do not come under the provisions
of this act.
The compensation law provides
that "every employer, except the
state and the municipal divisions
thereof, liable under this act to
pay compensation, shall insure pay
ment of such compensation with
some insurance carrier authorized
to insure such liability in this
state, unless such employer shall
be exempted from such insurance
by the industrial commission"
Here is a question, propounded
to the attorney general of Mime
sta: "The owner Of threshing rig,
going about from place to place,
threshing for hire, employs but one
or two men, for the operation Of
such rig; the remainder of the re-
quired crew being furnished by the
respective farmers, for whom he
threshers, such farmers exchanging
help among themselves in furnish
ing such additional help. Is the
owner of such rig CONNER
cial thresher' within the meaning Of
Chapter 81, General Laws of 1928?
Does the exchange Of help among
farmer customers affect the status
of the thresher?"
And here is the attorney gener-
ais opinion, dated July 8, 1924: "a
person operating a threshing rig
under the circumstances described,
is clearly a commercial thresher-
man, as defined by the statute. The
fact that the farmers, whom he
serves, may furnish all or part Of
the labor, does not change the
status of the commercial thresher-
man."
Section 1, Chapter 2S3, General
Laws of 1923, says: "Any employ
er, who shall fail to comply with
provisions of this section, to Sc
cure payment Of compensation,
shall be liable to the state of Min
nesota for a penalty of IS; and, in
addition thereto, If the employer
continues his noncompliance, he
shall be liable for five times the
lawful premium, as determined by
the Compensation Insurance board,
for compensation insurance"
