Behind the Chinese Lines, Yenlo, North China, May 15-UP)- Poorly equipped, decimated Chi nese regiments held their lines against deadly Japanese attack to-day, grimly determined to show the world that Chinese soldiers could fight and die.
 Between here and Peiping, 50 miles to the southward, Chinese were making frantic preparations to check the Japanese advance. In the front line, the Ranking reg ulars were well entrenched behind barbed wire. They were hardened troopers, oblivious to bombing air planes and heavy artillery. Secon- dary trenches had been dug be- hind. Machine gun nests dotted the countryside. In the streets of Peiping the garrison forces erect ed sandbag barricades.
 I moved through this network of defense from Peiping to the front, and nowhere was there any indi- cation that the Chinese were de- moralized or ready to flee. Japa- nese bombing planes droned over head, dropping dozens of bombs into villages. Great masses of  wreckage were catipulted through the air, but there were few casual ties. Practically all of the civilian population had fled toward the south. OK teams hauling wagons filled with household furniture damned the rough, muddy roads.
 The Japanese moved forward slowly. gaining each mile only after heavy fighting. Their mod ern equipment of war inflicted heavy damage in Chinese ranks and the columns of wounded helped jam roads already packed with fleeing civilians.
 There could be no accurate check on the dead, but General Ho Ying Ching, Chinese >rninister of war. estimated that 5000 Chinese were killed last week.
 The Chinese were holding a line three miles south of Shihhsia, where the Japanese command was believed consolidating forces for q drive on Miyunhsien. To the east.

Chinese Fighting
 And Dying Before
 Deadly Japanese

Japanese troops advancing out of the Luan river triangle along the ancient Mandarin highway had req ached the outskirts of Fengjun, an important crossroads, 90 miles from Peiping.
 The morale of Chinese troops was high. They felt they had lost "face" by the precipitate flight from Jehol and they were deter. mined to regain it in defense of Peiping.
 Missions Named
 .Peiping, May 15-(UP)-The United States legation advised the American board of missions to-day to evacuate the American school at Tungchow. Six American fam flies, eight American high school boys and girls, and 500 Chinese Christian children are enrolled in the school.
 United States Minister Nelson T. Johnson instructed legation offi- cials to forward to the Japanese legation a detailed list of American property and missionary personnel fin. North China, with 8 statement pointing out the necessity for strict regard for the right of neutral property and lives.
 Johnson's action came a few minutes after the Japanese lega- ton announced that Nippon troops would hold 7,5o0 square miles of Chinese territory within the Great Wall until all outstanding Chinese Japanese disputes are settled.
 The legation said the army would hold all of its present gains, inferring that no further extensive advances were contemplated. It was felt however, that the Japa- nese lines would be brought within a threatening distance of Peiping and Tientsin.
 American officials anxiously studied reports that indicated rapidly expanding area of hostil- ities.
 Tingehow is 12 miles east of Peiping, in the direct line of march of Japanese columns advancing westward on Peiping from She Luan river triangle. The mco"s, using the ancient Mandarin high way, were only eighty miles away.

Der of family of an employe of the Metro-Goldwyn-Ma Mayer com pany, the Palace theater, or the Democrat newspaper will be con- sidered, and anyone who has had screen credit in any nationally re- leased motion picture will be barr ed. The officials of the campaign specify this in fairness to the av- craze run of entrants.
 Hollywood Opportunity
 Some lucky girl in the United States will be sent to the famous Metro Goldwyn-M Mayer studios in California, will be rendered a re- ception at which she will be pre- sented to all the great Metro- Goldwyn- Mayer stars, and will be given further and more studied tests by a prominent Metro Gold wyn- Mayer director.
 Imagine having an opportunity like that! Why to be able to meet all the Metro Goldwyn- Mayer stars, to mingle with Joan Crawford, Norma Shearer, Marion Davies, John Barrymore, Clark Gable, Marie Dressler, Wallace Beery, Siy, IAcicu IldJCS, louSleF hcdlOilS Jackie Cooper, Robert Montgom- M. c. NJ. lot, should supply thrill enough for any girl. And, just think, in addition, the winning girl will have an opportunity of being assigned to play in forthcoming picture if she can qualify for a part.
 Don't Be Shy!
 Don't be shy! Don't underrate your capabilities. And if you feel you are not beautiful enough. you may forget that promptly. While beauty is q splendid attribute, the motion picture industry has been so revolutionized by talking pie lures, beauty is no longer an essen- tial requirement.. What counts more now is personality and voice ap- peal
 Every girl cannot have the vivacious beauty of Joan Craw- ford. or the es wistful beauty of Marion Davies. But if you are at- tractive, and still possess that vaunted personality which the screen requires; that intangible something of-other, that vibrating individuality which can attract and hold an audience spellbound, your chances of success are much greater than if you just possessed beauty.
 "Our Gang" Star
 As for children--an opportunity of starting on the road to stardom as n player in the famous "Our Gang comedies produced at the Hal Roach studio Is offered in this campaign.
 Hal Roach, producer of the "Our Gang" Laurel and Hardy, "Taxi- Boys" and Thelma Todd and Zasu Pitts comedies has agreed to present three months contract calling for salary of $50 week to the boy or girl se- lected in this nation-w wide search. And what's more the travelling ex- penses of the winning child and his or her mother or chaperone will also be paid by Mir Roach.
 So come on girls! Come on mothers of charming youngsters. Mail In your applications and photogra phs now. And remember when you do, paste your applica- ton to the reverse side of the photograph, and be sure 1t carries sufficient postage. Otherwise it will have to be returned to you.

GOLD MINE HUNDRED YEARS 0LD |S STILL
 MAKING B|g PROFITS

What is the life of gold mine? St. John Del Rey Mining Com pany in Brazil has been working the Morro Velho property for 100 years, and in 1881 it made a net profit of $691 $40, paid dividend of 10 per cent, milled $50 tons day, had ore reserves for seven years ahead, opened a large ton mage of new ore, down to a depth of 1850 feet-the deepest gold mining in the world. The 1882 profits are estimated at $1,295, APO owing to the premium on ex- change.
 The company not only increased it's profits and it's ore reserves, but has also decided to double it's mill ing capacity and increase it's divi- dend rate. New ore is being found in lateral exploration work on the Morro Velho and also new ore mines are being developed on the company's other properties.
 This centenarian youngster of the gold family is showing a good example of our youthful western mines and likewise offers food for reflection to those who would ar bitrarily limit the life of a gold mine to 10 or 20 years.
