what they must call negligence. But
that was many years ago, and since
we learned how to prevent f1eas IN
our home we Just haven't had them.
1t is certainly no disgrace to get
them; the disgrace comes in keep
ing them. How we'll do remember
those fleas. We used to keep a
grand big hound in the cellar. There
were some chips near the woodpile
and he would lie in them.
One day we discovered that every
time we went down cellar we could
feel little snaps against our legs,
especially my wife's legs. And when
we came upstairs we would begin
to itch I can feel them yet, and
haven't forgotten the Jumps they
raised on me. So we decided to use
the big dog for trap.
We put him down cellar and the
f1eaS would jump on him. Then we
would take him up and wash him
with strong flea soap and the next
day we would put him down again
to trap some more. Well, that fool
iShneSs went on until we were at
our wits end and then I learned
what I should have long before. The
flea doesn't hatch on the dog 1t
matches and lives in -decaying or
ganic matter. We bought some
strong flea powder and busted it in
every crack in the cellar floor, left
no wood chips, nor any medium
where the larvae could grow, and
our flea problem was over in a few
days. I'm just telling you so you
never will let it happen in your
family.

VIVA VILLA AT

New England Premiere to
Show Here At Popular
Prices

State of "Glamous. Edna Ferber's
ace story. with Constance Cum
mings and Paul Lukas, also "Whirl-
pool starring Jack Holt and big
cast.
Tomorrow brings the New Eng
land premiere of Via Villa" which
Is currently playing on Broadway
at $500 admission prices but
which will nevertheless be shown
here at regular prices.
Based on the tempestuous life
and loves Of Pancho Villa, the
great Mexican war lord who was
the worlds outstanding figure in
the decade preceding the World
war. it combines spectacle and
human elements in manner remi-
niscent of that great classic of all
time, 1.-THE Birth of Nation" 1t
is is much the same vein.
1t presents Pancho villa in
love, his fen mime foils being Fay
Wray and Katherine De Mile.
Highlights Of this romantic aspect
of the picture include Beery's at
tempt to win the love of Miss
Wray by force-a scene in which
she shoots him and in which he
beats her with cattle whip. 1t
is one of the most powerful scenes
ever filmed.
Beery's fiery conquest of Kath-
crime De Mile is another romantic
highlight of the photoplay, as is
their mock marriage at midnight
in a lonely hut, and the scenes
which follow.
Spectacular highlights Of the
story include the conquests of
Chihuahua, Santa Rosalia, Torreon
and other important cities of
Mexico, these battles being not
only accurate reproductions of
history, but among the most spec
tacular ever shown on the screen.
One hundred thousand Mexican
natives were used in the picture,
as many as 5000 appearing on the
screen at one time in the battle
sequences. The sight of these
wild poems, armed with guns and
cleaning machetes, charging fed
eral breastworks behind which
machine guns keep up a devils
tattoo, is awe-inspiring.
Beery's friendship with Henry
B. Walthal, who plays the gentle
President Madero. and with
Stuart Erwin. who plays a devil
may-care American newspaper
correspondent, provides material
for some of the most dramatic
highlights of the photoplay.
His parting with Madero, for
whom he has worked and fought,
when Madero goes on to Mexico
City and triumph and leaves Villa
behind because he is uncouth and
untutored. is masterpiece of
drama. His first meeting with
Madero, in which the gentle man
induces him to forsake banditry
and fight for the revolution a
scene in which Villa says softly,
"You make great dreams in my
heartn'-is another that will long
be membered.
"viva Villa!" is the first biog-
raphy to reach the screen that
concentrates on the human side
of the subject, while deftly inter-
polating such mighty spectacle as
has seldom, if ever, been filmed
before.
With Berry, besides the Misses
Wray and De Mile and Walthall
and Erwin, is notable cast that
includes Leo Carrillo, Donald
Cook, George e. Stone. Joseph
Schildkraut, Phillip Cooper, Frank
Puglia, David Durand, Francis x.
Bushman, Jr., Adrian Rosley and
Henry Armetta.
