T OLLYWOOD. Calf, Septem-
- Der 2l-The Warner Bros
have what is called a ma ior
u Il preview" at a downtown Hol-
lywood theater. AS is customary at
such an event, the papers do not adver-
tise what the picture will be. Patrons
must take pot luck. The air is full of
secrecy and expectancy in spite of the
fact that sturdy little campaign has
been waged in and around the studio:
For heaven sakes tell Cousin Minnie
and Aunt Sarah to go to see Ship
mates Forever at the Warner theater
tonight" etc. -
Cousin Minnie and Aunt Sarah are
there by the thousands when we ar
rive. So is every urchin in town, with
q pad, a pencil and an amazingly
active pair of elbows. Sister and
brother urchin know every star and
player in Hollywood. Wini Shaw no
sooner steps out of her car than she
is yanked over into corner, lombard
ed with pencils and pads, Swamped
with shrieks, grunts, groans and cat
calls from those who can't get near
her and photographed from every
angle as she autographs away her soul,
Al Jolson and Ruby Keller have an
even tougher time. But they grin and
bear it and soon are lost in the the
alter along with the Ross Alexanders,
the Frank BorzageS, the Johnny Ar
Lodges and Dick Powell, who is merely
the star of the picture.
"Shipmates Forever" IS the film that
was made down at Annapolis and
which has been also known as An
chors Aweigh," Dress Parade" and
couple Of other things. This was the
film which evoked the now immortal
United States Naval Academy remark:
Join the Navy and become Warner
Bros. extra" due to the fact that the
Annapolis boys did more parading in
front of and in back of and all around
a camera than they will probably do
during the remainder of their Annap-
oils schooling.
But for the fact that Ruby Keeler
looked pretty in that short green dress
they might have joined the Army.
They suffered plenty as the thermom-
eter jumped up into the nineties and
the town gallants and Baltimore and
Washington motion picture critics
lowered around to see how such a pic
ture is made. They marched here and
they marched there and they never
knew why they were marching.
On the preview night they would
have known. Dick Powell plays the
role of a crooner who rebels against
the sea-even If he is the son Of a

black velvet hat with a feather on

He shouts out. "AvaSt there, my

with that there is fierce scurrying
on the decks, the cannons are primed,
Guy Kibbe jumps up, waves his hands
over his white wig. and in a minute
six cannon go boom real blooms -
and the boat, the studio and every
body's lungs are thick with smoke.
It's a grand game-and ought to
make a fine picture Warmers are
spending over S750,0OO on it. Some
thing which you can we'll Imagine
when you see the sets and all the
actors working on it. Tomorrow the

clared people of Indiana are "fed up"

Senator Sherman Minton. fresh
man" in the last session of Congress,
asserted he believes HooSier voters
will give President Roosevelt more
votes for reelection in 1886 than he
received here in 1882.
Senator Frederick Van Mugs, the
senior legislator, reported he has found
"all classes of our citizenship pretty
we'll satisfied with the result of the
last Congress"
Representative Halleck, who comes
from the second Indiana district, said
a month not only in the second dis
trict, but also in other parts Of the
State has convinced him the voters
"are firing of a search for utopias
which do not exist"
"They also are tired of social ex-
Fermentation. which they know is
unwise, unavoidable and American,
and which they are convinced is re-
tarding economic recovery" Halleck
asserted.
Indiana Is Republican today and
will go Republican by an overwhelm-
ing majority in 1886"
After visiting friends in various Sec
tons of the State, Senator Minton
said, the only discomfort he has found
has been read on the editorial pages
of the bitterly partisan metropolitan
newspapers" and that "even those
criticisms . are discounted by
front page news about factory ex-
pansions, trade increases, circulation
gains and income rises"

A Better Ball.

A new idea for the improvement of
golf balls has been brought out that
is supposed to give longer and more

ball there is small ball of dry ice
dropped into a heavy liquid center, all
being inclosed in a rubber case.
Thousands of yards of rubber band
are stretched round it and a tough
hard rubber cover is added.

Classy Stomachs
Relieved

Il Every person who is troubled with
excessive gas in the stomach and
/ bowels should get a package of Baal-
/ manns Gas Tablets and see how
quickly they will relieve all distressing
symptoms.
Sharp pains in the abdomen or about
the heart are often due entirely to
gas pressure. Many sufferers complain
of an empty, "all gone" feeling at the
pit of the stomach. which is relieved
by eating; extreme nervousness, heart
burn. sour risings. bloating. drowsiness
after meals. headaches. dizziness or
labored breathing.
Bsalmann's Gas Tablets taken at
meal time not only prevent all bad
effects from gas, but they promote
the functional activity of the stomach,
assist digestion and improve the ap-
petite. You'll find them on sale at
Peoples. Whelan's and good drug
stores everywhere.

there is nothing better. And-will
warn you against habit-forming drugs

pated, do as doctors do. Follow the

tasteless, notwithstanding dose
1i5 Pluto with as glass hot water. In
one hour or less you'll get relief. And
what a remarkable difference it makes!
Remember, too, Pluto Water is SIM

YEP, WE'RE SPENDING

lures of the United States government,

Teflecting
From 1889, when Washington was in
augurated, to 1913, when Taft left the
White House, a period of 124 years, the
expenditures of h e United States
amounted to "a billion dollars For the
years 1884, 1885 and 1886, they will total
exactly the same figure-24 billion dol
lars.
We went through numerous wars. de-
pressions and the greatest period of in
dustrial and agricultural expansion the
world has ever known in those 124 years
and we had something to show for our
money
Can we show as much for our latest
expenditure of "a billion dollars? Is
there any tangible benefit from this or
gy of spending? Maybe but if there is
ii hasn't made its appearance as yet
Much of the latter "a billions repre-
sent borrowed money, which eventually, ,
will have to be paid back. Some of us
won't be here to pay it but our children
and perhaps our children's children will
be digging down to pay for what we have
borrowed.
We are placing a milestone around the
neck of two old-fashioned American Gus
toms-thrift and industriousness. They
stood by us during the 124 years and
longer, and paid good dividends. We are
rapidly sinking them, by encouraging
spending and idleness. Spending and
idleness will also return dividends but
they will not be of the sort that will be
of benafit Tn the nation
Piling up debts may be method of
getting out of debt, but it is long, hard
and costly procedure. Tightening the
belt and splitting on the hands may be in
elegant phrases but they worked during
124 years and they can be made to work

FOURTEEN DIE
AS TRAIN HITS
SCHOOL AUTO

ROCKVILLE, Md. April -. U.P)
-Manslaughter charges were plac-
ed today against Percy Line, SO,
driver of the school bus in which
IA children were killed.
The manslaughter charge was
filed against Line shortly after he
was apprehended by police for ques-
tioning in the accident last night
near here.
Line was held in Jail in lieu of
81 900 bail. The charge referred
specifically TO the death of Nor
ris Downs, Jr., Is, one of the child
rem who met death when a fast
Baltimore 81 Ohio train crashed
into the bus on a grade crossing.
Police said Line was so stunned
by the shock Of the accident that
they had been able TO obtain little
information from him.
Line was apprehended by police
early today at Williamsport, Md,
home of the 81 children who were
riding in the bus. OF the 27, ID
were killed, two were injured SER
iously and number of the others
suffered slight injuries.
The bus driver was unhurt as
was Miss Louise Funk, school
teacher, who was bringing the
youngsters back home from a sci
ence demonstration sponsored by
the University of Maryland.
Line was so dazed by the shock
of the accident that police were at
first able to get only meager de-
tails from him.
Police held the teacher, Miss
Louise Funk, 81. incommunicado at
the home of an attorney here.
They said she was on the verge OF
a nervous breakdown and was be-
ing allowed to rest. Police guarded
the home.

Bungalow Floats
"I'll tell you, Baby Bunty," an
swered Uncle Wiggily, who had also
hoped out of bed as had his wife
and Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy.
Don t be afraid. The long rain
and the high water of the brook
has set our bungalow afloat. Our
bungalow is turned into a boat and
We are going to have nice bunga-
low ride
"Oh, that will be lovely" said
Baby Bunty.
Scrumptious! " said\ Jingle, and
Jangle, her twin sister, said the
same thing. Buster, boy rabbit,
said:
"This is SOME adventure!
BY this time Nurse Jane and
Mrs. Longears had lighted candles,
for the bungalow was torn loose
from the cellar walls and as the
electric wires for the lights came
in through the cellar, none of them
could be turned on. So the bun
MES had to be old fashioned and
use candles.
With many candles glowing to
chase away the dark, and having
heard their father say everything
was all right, Baby Bunty and the
ether little rabbits were no long
er afraid But it was funny to feel
their bungalow moving along like
a boat in the middle of the night.
What happened? asked Bus
ter as they all went down stairs
in the big living room having put
on their bath robes and slippers.

Of course Al hasn't the opportunity at
Alcatraz to enjoy all the luxury he once
knew in Chicago, but life there shouldn't
be such difficult problem. He has
food, clothing and shelter, the three
main essentials in life, and is thereby re-
iieved of the three major causes for an
Xiety on the part of many thousands of
law-abiding citizens.
He doesn't have to worry about the
NRA, ICU, AAA ORU, BVD, SOL, PDQ
or any other members of the alphabet
soup brigade which keeps many a busi-
ness man in a constant state of the hee-
bic jeebies
Whether the dollar is worth SO cents
or 100 is a subject that he doesn't have
to bother about in the least.
There may be income taxes, sales taX-
es, gasoline taxes, pension taxes or taxes
Of any other variety, and none of them
need cause him to lose a moment of
sleep nor a single instant of annoyance
Naturally Al can't take his machine
gun out and go for little hunting eX-
pedition, which may be something of
drawback to one who was used to such
entertainment, but on the other hand he
is not exposed to the dangers of retalia-
ton such sort of fun induces.
Al may be going nuts, as he thinks he
is, but we can't SEEM to work up any
sympathy for him. From his point of
view he may be getting tough break
but it is much easier variety than the
sort he used to hand out so promiscu-
ously when he was lord high admiral of
Chicago.
Any sympathy we may have can be
used more appropriately on the Cincn-
