R-K-O to Make
Film Of Arabian
Troop Life
BY HARRISON CARROLL

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 15.-Radio
officials eagerly await the arrival
of Ernest Schoedsack, film ad-
venturer. who is hurrying back
here with 20 cans of negative
that he shot in the Aamen Grass
country of Transjordinia.
They hope they have the
makings of a picture even bigger
than Chang" and Grass" which
SchoedSack and Merriam C. Cooper
photographed several years ago.
Cooper. now the producing head
of RKO, declares the new film
will be called Arabia" He has
detailed Anthony Lawless, English
author, to write a story around
the material which his coworkerS
have been gathering for many
months.
The Aamen Grass country is
near the Palestine-Syria border.
1t was while SchoedSack and
Cooper we're returning from q
previous expedition that they
passed through this district and
determined to make a picture
there at some future date.
Arabia" the result of the
idea, is to tell the story of the
handful of British troops and
airplanes who keep under subiu-
CATION the hundreds of thou
sands of tribesmen living about
them. AS LawleSs was with the
British cavalry in Mesopotamia
during the war, he will be able
to give the story authentic at
moSphere.
Work will begin as soon as
Schoedsack arrives here from
New York.

Whacks Sob Sisters

The sob sisters of the Fourth
Estate get all the worst of it
in that Earle picture, Mystery
of the Wax Museum" It is a
base libel on the girls of the
city room and, as played by
Glenda Farrell, is just about the
most irritating character that
has passed under tie guise of a
journalistic portrait since the
advent of sound. 1t is not
helped much either by the fact
that Glenda Farrell races with
her impossible lines and is the
kind of a girl who would make a
city editor forget there was such
a word as chivalry in the die
tionary.
Too bad for Glenda Farrell.
It gives her a black mark with
the girl movie critics it will take
a dozen good roles to wipe out.

A Lot Of Beefsteak

In two minutes the beef
steaks were before us. They
were perhaps an inch and one
half long and a quarter of an
inch thick. I wasn't even able
to cut mine, but my friend had
better luck. He managed to
chop of small bit. He placed
it in his mouth and chewed
vigorously. It was so tough
that it was an effort for him
to swallow it.
He pushed the rest of the
steak away.
Don't know why I ordered
that" he muttered. II wasn't
hungry in the first place."
You've heard of milk trains,
and you know how they're
Scorned. Well, this is a new
one for you. I'm on a bread
train, and I mean exactly
what I say. The outfit stops
at every tiny station-not to
take on or discharge passen-
gers, but to throw off two or
three loaves of bread!
It's a remarkable sight and
a sad one, too. AS the after.
noon waneS, the crowds at the
bigger stations grow larger and
larger. You must remember
that these people see a train
but three times a week, and
it is the only excitement that
comes into their lives, aside
from an occasional marriage.
More than that, the amuse-
ment is free. With the train,
I mean, not the marriage.
The baggage car is directly
ahead of me, and it is there
that the bread is kept. Four
or five ragged men gather
around as soon as the train

But he's comfortable. I'll
say that for him. He wears
his shirt, his pants and a pair
of slHppers-and occasionally,
when the train stops at sta
ton that he considers i'm
portant, he slips a huge coat
over the ensemble and steps
to the platform to give the
girlieS a treat.
The man speaks no English,
I'm happy to say. No matter
what you want on this train,
you do without it. But that
rule very evidently does not
apply to the porter. When
I returned from the diner, such
as it is, last night. the porter
was in my compartment. just
as nicely as you please, he was
stuffing his pockets with ciga-
rettes from a box I had left
open.
I caught him beautifully
and he knew it. It was his
move, and I just stood and
looked at him. He smiled
very Sheepishly, took the ciga-
rettes out of his pockets, re-
placed them in the box, lit
the last one, puffed most con-
tentedly-and walked out!
The diner is a dismal affair.
There were but five people in
for luncheon today, and that
was five too many. A meal
consists of a cup OF greasy
soup, a piece of alleged chicken,
a sickly salad, an orange and
some sort of slops that they
are pleased to call coffee.
I dined with the young Greek
whom 1 mentioned in yester-
days column. He complained
bitterly about the food, but ate
ravenously of everything that
was placed before him. AS soon
as he had finished his chicken,
he raped his plate for an
other piece. The solitary
waiter sighed heavily-alas,
there was no more.
Then you will bring me
beefSteak," he asserted. And
still another beefsteak for my
friend here. Quick"
He explained the beefsteak.
On any Greek train you are
always entitled to double
order of anything that is placed
before you. If there is no
more of the article left, you
are entitled to order something
else, free of charge. Hence the
beefsteak.

Naturally, with people living up to an age

The body is attacked on every side by invad-

SO the important thing would be to keep up
the resistant power in the cells of the body
against these infections. Such disinfectants as
mercurochrome and iodine would occasionally
be helpful but the main protection would be In
the cells themselves and the vitamin- containing
food to maintain them.

CAPT. MASON INJURED ABOARD

Captain Eugene Mason entered Wrangell General Hospital Sunday afternoon suffering from an accident which occurred aboard the Vest ward, cannery tender of the Cook Inlet Packing Co. at Seldovia, owned by Captain Mason's father-in-law, w A. Estes of Seattle.
 The Westward was southbound to Seattle with MT. and Mrs. Estes, their son, F. A. Estes and his wife, Capt. and Mrs. Mason and little daughter and Thor Hofstad aboard. The vessel had encountered stormy weather and from the roll of the boat the engine room floor was slip pry with grease so that when Capt. Mason stepped down from the stair way into the engine room he slipped and fell into the clutch of the en- zine.
 Before he could extricate himself the flesh had been badly torn from his right leg, a bone was broken and he had suffered a severe blood loss.

MSS JOHNSON HAS VARIED
 VACATION EXPERIENCES

Miss Dorothy Johnson returned to Wrangell on the Victoria last Satur- day after a two weeks visit at the Century of Progress Fair at Chicago following the close of her summer work at the U. of Washington. Ac- companied by a Whitman College friend. she made the trip eastward over the Great Northern Ky, mak= ing short visit in Minneapolis with relatives, enroute. The return to the coast from Chicago was made over the Santa Fe to Los Angeles and from that port to Seattle on the steamer Ruth Alexander. In San Francisco where the girls enjoyed a 23-hour stay, they had brief glimpse of Harold 0ttesen of Wran- gell who is in the employ of the New York Life Insurance Company.
 Miss Johnson boarded the Aleu- tian for Wrangeii on her return to Seattle and reports that the ship was within about Is hours of Ketch- ikan when it ran aground and was turned back to the home port. Pas sengers from Southeastern Alaska were transferred to the Victoria leaving Wednesday night while those for Southwestern Alaska await ed the sailing of the Yukon.

 SCHOOL TERM GETS UNDER WAY WITH NO CHANGE IN FACULTY

The Wrangell Public School term opened Tuesday with 135 pupils en- oiled. Classes were under way and everything was running smoothly the following day.
 There were no changes in the fac- nlty personnel of last year, but in high school, a number of subjects vhich are given only in alternate years, take the place of a similar number which will not be taught again until next year.
 A class in physics replaces the chemistry class of last year; biology replaces general science, civics re- places U. s. History. A class was formed in first year French while English literature replaces American literature.
 Because of a demand from several boys, a boys cooking class was form ed with nine enrolled for the first class.
