virsity Theatre today in her first Selznick
Victurc. "A Regular Girl," is acclaimed liy
prominent writers as bein^ the inost interest-
ing Kirl before the public's attention. The
following facts arc gathered from several man
a/inc articles about this popular actress and
all 'round dispenser ol cheer:

Oklahoma City. Dec. 1.—All news-
paper* in the state, particularly the
small dailies and weeklies, are fac-
ing a serious crisis due to the short-
age of paper and inability of the
wholesale houses to meet the present
demand.
At the present time the consump-
tion is 10 per cent greater than the
gross output of the mills and the de-
mand is increased daily. The open
market on print paper is absolutely
empty and paper cannot be obtained
at any price.
"II the present supply is maintained
and every possible pound of paper
saved we will be able to keep the
papers going till Christmas, but af-
ter that time they will be forced to
suspend publication." said O. W. Mc-
Kowen, manager of the Western
Newspaper branch office.
No print paper is being sold for
other purposes Ulan actual newspa-
per printing, and the orders received
arc being only partly filled. Many of
the wholesale houses have refused or-
ders, and no guarantees are being
made.
Mill owners state that the suspen-
sion of publication for the period of
a month or more is the only way in
which the supply can be brought back
to normal, as it is impossible to make
up the present deficit. They say it is
a very serious condition, and no mere
theory that confronts them.
When conditions are not to our
liking, we ar eapt t oexpect elected
fc-JtHority to put everything right.
We ask why they don't enact laws
to mitigate our woes. "Why don't
they?"
"Why don't we?" is rarely the ques-
tion. Vet half the cure is in our. ,
hands. Theatrical circuit managers I to
announce that the American theatre
was never so prosperous as now. So
the H. C. of L. is not preventing an
unprecedented indulgence in theatre-
goging. Labor unionists, already bet-
ter paid than many executives, go
on strike about once a month, which
indicates that they have money
enough for vacations.
1 erhaps national extravagance is
partly to blame for our maintenance

Nov/, dear folks, it costs us good hard
cash to tell you of these bargains. The
printer notified us this morning that his
advertising rates, on the account of labor
and shortage of news print, would cost us
10 cents an inch more money and if you
arc interested in the High Cost of Living
is to read this advertisement and act im-
mediately, and not wait until tomorrow
because if you do it necessitates a high
cost of goods.
