 What follows is as hilariously funny as any comedy yet to come to the Strand theater. Nowhere is there dull moment nor a weak spot in either cast or story. Olivia deHavilland's work is extremely convincing, while Patric Knowles is as competent as usual. Others in the cast, which includes Bonita Gran vile and Veda Ann Borg give out- standing performances.
 The companion feature will be Rex Beach's "The Barrier" the most thrilling love story of this master story-teller. The unforget- table romance of little native girl and a dashing soldier in the surg ing, gold-mad Yukon days flames to life against the background of ave- inspiring beauty in the great North Country.

Hollywood, Jan. 28-Gentlemen, the line forms on the right. Claire Trevor wants husband.
 One of the incest, most sensible and most successful actresses in Hollywood not only believes that it's about time she was getting mar ried, but she also has decided that no actors need apply. And she has no man in mind just now.
 On the afternoon of her depart uYe for short vacation in New York we were sitting in her dreS- sing room talking about shows and pictures and what-iS-the-world- coming-to, all rather aimlessly, wher suddenly Miss Trevor ups and says T want to get married"
 said, Let me be the first"
 "No congratulations" she inter- rupted.
 "What meant to say was, let me be the first to print it." Not in Love
 'But you see," the blond, hazel eyed little actress explained, there isn't any special man, and I'm not in love. But I'm going to start look ing around, and not among actors, either. This career business is dan dy, up to a certain point, but I'm not going to let it make me an old maid"
 Let me warn you" I said. that anything you say will result in at least thousand proposals"
 What girl" countered Miss Trevor, would object to thous- and proposals?
 First thing I must do, of course, is fall in love. That may take a year or two. Oh, I've been in love before. Twice, in fact. But was to busy making pictures.
 Maybe I shouldn't have said that about not marrying an actor. It would be just my luck to fall in love with the next one I meet. Actors Are Nice, but ..
 "Also I'm going to be embar- rassed trying to explain how feel about actors, or how I don't feel about them. So many are my friends, you know, and they're dar- lings, really, and charming, and all that.
 But I'm sure it wouldn't be smart to have a husband with in terests so nearly like mine. We wouldn't be sympathetic audiences for each other. We'd come home in the evening and 1t would be just a question of which one got to tell

Ely Ski Jumper Makes
Shouting at Duluth Meet.

Five members of the Ely Ski Club
attended the tournament in Duluth

themselves on the exceptionally hard

THAT CHRISTMAS
CANDLEWAX

There's something about candles thai
just adds the right touch-but Christ
mas is over now and the red candle
spots are there. The usual method OF
removing candlewax takes about
steps. First, scrape off as much of the
wax as possible with the dull edge OF
a knife. Then place clean white
blotter both above and beneath the
stain and press with hot iron to melt
out the solid wax. If grease stain
still shows, sponge it away with carbon
tetrachloride or some other grease SOL
vent. And finally, if any traces of
color remain, sponge with alcohol.
This is probably the best method for
removing wax from linen cloth or any
smooth piece Of material. But with a
lace toblecloth, trying to scrape off the
wax may be dangerous to the fabric and
not very effective anyway. And with
heavy lace, the blotting-p paper device
may not be very helpful either. So YOU
may have better results by first rubbing
the spot with small amount of lard
or turpentine to loosen the wax, and
then sponging with carbon terra
chloride, and finally washing with
warm suds. Still another method is to
apply kerosene and then wash the spot.
In any case though, if traces of the
red color of the candles remain, alcohol
is susually effective in removing them.
Or you can use bleach like peroxide
Of hydrogen on pure white cloth.

Camera Man Takes Series of
Motion Pictures of Ely's
Noted Lady Guide.

Frank Sussenguth, representing the
Pathe News with headquarters in ST.
Paul, was in the city Friday for series
of motion pictures of Miss Marie Sar-
kipato for the news reels.
Miss Sarkipato was taken in costume
as a northwoods guide in several stra-
getic points on the Echo Trail, the
BURNSIDE lake district, and in company
with Andrew Toutloff, youthful Indian
guide.
She was also photographed with the
Clarence Chinn muShing team of dogs
of which the lead dog is the famous
Tom, Pratt, owning the distinction of
being born at the South Pole with the
Admiral Byrd expedition.
Ely is getting an enormous amount
of advertising through the famous Miss
Sarkipato who was made a national
figure through write-up about a year
ago by John Somrock, Jr., an Ely
newswriter of more than ordinary
ability. Her picture is being published
in the leading papers of the country and
Canada with special pictures in the
rotogravure sections. Her fame has
spread throughout the country and Ely
comes in for large share of the glory.
The fore part of next month, Miss
Sarkipato will be the guest of Edgar
Guest, the philosophical poet in Chi
cago, where she will be interviewed by
the noted writer and where she will
extend an invitation to Mr.. Guest to
be guest for a week or more at the
resorts of this section. The resorts are
cooperating with the Ely Commercial
Club in entertaining Mr.. Guest, pro-
viding it is possible for him to accept
the invitation.

NEW YEARS RESOLUTION
FOR EVERYONE.

Did you ever wonder why so few New
Years resolutions are really carried
out? Who do people make them?
With the beginning of new year, we
have a feeling that the old year is
past, the experience of that old year
can be laid away and new start made.
Many resolutions are related to mis-
takes and follies that we do not wish
to repeat.
For the normal person, the keeping
of resolution is not just a matter of
will power. If his wish is a conscious
desire to improve himself and he has
he will find powers
necessary to carry them out All
through the ages human beings have
followed consistently the laws of pro-
gress. Progress is made when people
follow the highly conscious method of
finding out where they are wrong, ad-
hitting mistakes and thoughtfully and

eagerly correcting them

eagerly correcting them.
Everyone would be wise to make a
resolution that this year he will en-
deavor to better understand himself
and others. Then he will know why he
does certain things, and not others. A
true consciousness of ones own powers
is normal and healthy condition and
is necessary to sound and efficient living.
Always, as one develops normally, one
becomes more fully and richly conscious,
and more aware and understanding of
ones own powers.
To understand others, we must be
capable of what is called intellectual
sympathy which differs from emotional
sympathy or pity. 1t is a power of
sharing or identifying ones self with
experience outside ones SELF Scientists
tell us that it is an Unborn trait and
belongs to each of us.

TIPS FOR BUYING SLIPS.

Now that Christmas shopping is over,
we may turn to bit of personal buying
January is good time to buy lingerie.
When We buy things for ourselves we
expect our moneys worth and We buy
for service. Here are few tips when
buying slips:
Have them smooth and form fitting
for this years dress styles and the
color of the moment-tea rose. There
are many different fabrics, prices and
styles. Fancy ones if you wish, but the
plain tailored ones are built for SER
vice.
Slips are some of the best labeled
ready-made garments on the market.
Find out if the slip is pure Dye Silk"
for it will last longer and give better
wear than the heavily weighted silks.
You can't tell much by the feeling of
the fabric, for a heavily weighted or
sized material may feel more firm and
substantial than pure dye. Depend on
the label. The label indicating the
amount of weighing usually appears
inconspicuously. Many labels will carry
the word "Silk Crepe" in large type and
then underneath in small type and
parenthesis will say Weighted"
Rayons are weighted with sizing only.
For an inexpensive slip you will find
rayon will wear better than weighted
silk. While rayon slips stay white,
white silk slips turn yellow. However,
rayons fray easily, so beware of a
close fit. 1t is wise to buy garments
plenty large allowing for shrinkage.
Skirts have become shorter; save
yourself time and trouble by buying
your slip to suit the skirt length. It is
difficult to shorten a bias slip.
