entertainment. his lusty clowning
and his amazing tricks.
Appearing in chief support Of
Mr.. Stone is his own graceful and
charming daughter, Paula Stone,
ripened in her artistry and more
engaging even than she was in
"Ripples" with her father a couple
of years ago.
Mr.. Stone is surrounded with a
company of expert comedians,

many names of great popularity.
Among them are Roy Royston,

The impression gained is of
two muchly advertised wits in

ability to amuse, who leave their
host puzzled as to why these two
sad faced interlopers have m

low comedy and the attempted
blending of pathos and humor
results in blurring a clear i'm
preston of either. The few
laughs garnered were a bit on
the shady side.

Nebraska County
Will Burn Corn

SCHUYLER, Neb., Oct. 13.-(U.P)
-Colfax County this fall and win
ter will go back to the ways OF
the pioneer on the prairies in
burning corn as fuel.
The county commissioners vot-
ed to buy up the corn crop from
the farmers of the county, to burn
in the court house furnace and in
the stoves of over so rural schools.
The corn can be bought for So
per ton, the commissioners esti-
mated, whereas coal cost the coun-
ty about $12 per ton. The heat
value of corn is nearly as great as
e ~cal.
In addition TO adopting corn as
the official county fuel, the COM
missioners urged the residents of
the county to buy the corn from
the farmers instead of coal from
the town dealers.
This practice, it was believed
would aid the farmer in that che
could get a price higher than the
market price for his grain, and
the surplus would be destroyed.

Lettuce Packers
Protest Against
Women Workers

A number of communications
have been received at the e. Centre
Chamber of Commerce from exper-
fenced lettuce packers asking that
that organization use its influence
to prevent the employment of out
of-county women in the lettuce
sheds during the coming lettuce
season, according TO Robert Hays,
manager of the local chamber OF
commerce.
1t is reported that other COM
munities are employing wives and
daughters of transient fruit and
vegetable packers and in many
cases heads of families are unable
to get work because of the large
number of women employed. It is
believed that these same workers
will come to Imperial Valley dur
ing the lettuce season and, if these
large crews of women are employed,
it will keep many local men from
getting work in the sheds.
The local chamber, states Hays,
is not opposed to the employment
Of women in the lettuce sheds if
the women have dependents or are
dependent upon their own earning
capacity, but in most cases the wo-
men who come to Imperial Valley
during the lettuce and cantaloupe
seasons are not dependent upon
themselves but merely travel with
the men, husbands or fathers, who
are used during these shipping
seasons.
Lettuce growers and shippers in
Imperial Valley will be contacted
by the chamber and urged to en-
ploy local labor as far as possible
during the coming season. Many
local men, heads of families, are
out of work and "a number who
have called at chamber headquar-
ters state that they will work for
the same wages as the women re-
ceive if they are allowed to have
these jobs in the sheds and fields.
Particularly is the chamber inter-
ested in seeing crews of colored
people used in the fields in order
to decrease the unemployment con-
ditionS so serious last year among
Imperial Valleys colored residents.
Lettuce picking, packing and ship
ping should practically relieve un-
employment in Imperial Valley,
states Hays, and it is believed that
the firms engaged in the handling
of lettuce will cooperate with the
chamber in trying to see that local
residents, heads of families, get an
opportunity to work during the
coming season.

WEAR COATEE FOR EVENING,
 PARIS RULES
By DIANA MERWIN

Associated Press Fashion Editor)
 PARIS, Jan. GA concise coa- tee is the wrap to wear o'nights !" Paris says in it's latest edict for evening chic.
 Except at the opera and formal balls almost every smart evening gown is accompanied by one of the jaunty waistline wraps.
 Feathers, fur, velvet and velours are used to fashion the little coatees which fashionable women have adopted as a contribution to chic and protection against cool winds.
 The Chanticleer cape of feathers is attracting the most attention. In waistline design made entirely of black or white feathers it forms a flattering bit of fluff when milady losses it about her shoulders and ties it at the throat with bow of marabout.
 Another novelty IS the one-sleeve coatee. It is designed with one eighteen inch wide sleeve banded with fur at the wrist attached to a long wide scarf which is wrapped about the waist and opposite shoul- der.
 Black satin embroidered in silver and banded in silver fox, and crirn- son, gold and green lame trimmed in sable are among the favorite combinations.
 The little fur coachman's cape is a third innovation. Made of erm- inc, sable or mink in a design just long enough to cover the should CTS, it is a smart accompaniment to the velvet evening frocks which are so much in vogue this winter.
 Velvet coatees are legion. Most of them are straight little jackets with soft wide sleeves, their colors as varied as the contents of a jewel box.
 Amethyst purple velvet coatees are worn with pale grey gowns rose velvet with black silk jersey. emerald green velvet with white satin.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal.-Nowhere in the country is the Culbertson- Lenz bridge feud followed more closely than in Hollywood. The film stars have gone in feverishly for contract bridge, and several expert players have developed. The consensus of opinions that Frances CRing) Meighan is perhaps the best woman player, though Bebe Daniels, Diana Fitzmaurice and Kay Francis have high rating
 Bebe used to be one of the auc- tion sharks. She often sat in on games with Joseph Schenck, Sam usl Goldwyn and other highstake players.
 Some say that Buster Keaton is the best of the men. He has marvellous card sense, and excels at all games.
 Bridge is the general favorite all over the colony, although Harold Lloyd perfers backgammon, and Uncle Carl Laemmle sticks to pinochle. When Al Jolson was out here, he used to play hearts by the hour
 It is no unusal thing, when there is an M. G. M. preview at San Bernardino, for executives to charter a Pacific Electric car, board it near the studio and play bridge all the way. Irving Thal- berg is a crack player. Frequently, Ralph Graves and Jack Conway sit in on these games.
 Bridge players, too, were the Four Marx Brothers They also had their own kibitzer-Eddie Can tor.
