Admirer.- of Pauline Frederick—

Much of the future progress of a
town depends upon the li/me life o
the community.
If the town is divided into business
social, religious and polite al clique
or groups, with hard and i'.i.-L lira
drawn and each pulling a aim t th,
others, there is buL little opportunity
for real progress. The people c a no
get together on a common plane o
understanding and work. No one me
tion is willing to accept the lea lea
ship of another.
BuL when a town :■ comparatively
free from paralysing cliques and jeal
ousies there is great opportunity fo
advancement. Everybody knows ev-
erybody else, each feels free to ad-
vance suggestions to other . and ii
turn is willing to receive them.
In this way the best point: of every
proposition arc brought to th stir
face, and the logical hade to carry
n work to completion is easily se’.c. to
The closed mind is the her huge of :
town divided against itself. It in:
bibes but few new thought -, and thorn,
few arc centered around the partic
lar clique to which the mind belongs
The open mind, gathers in much
food for new thought and tha though
is capable of expansion and develop
ment in many Ways.
The open mind is the one for thi.
town.

ne production, “Behind the Door,”
vhich conies to he Elecric Theatre
next Wednesday has won a wide fol-
lowing in film circles for her excellent
characterizations in Paramount-Art-
craft pictures.
Miss Novak is by birth a St. Louis
girl, where she was edulcated in i
convent. Her dramatic talent mani-
fested itself early and even while she
was in the convent she participated
in stock plays unbeknown to her in-
structors. After leaving school she
went to Los Angeles, where she found
the oppoitunity to play in pictures,
starting as an extra girl, but soon at-
tracting attention by her grace and
wonderful expression.
She first won recognition when she
played opposite to William S. Hart in
•Selfish Yates,” and since that time
he appeared in “The Tiger Man” with
Mr. Hart and in “The Claws of the
Hun” and “A Nine O’clock Town"
with Cha.’les Ray, etc.
She has an usually big opportunity
i'or dramatic acting in “Behind the
Door," in which she has a role of un-
usual strength.
PllILO-DELPHIANS
By Dr. A. R. Lewis,
State Health Commissioner.
The New Hampshire Board of
Health has handed clown a niw deca-
:og for the people of that state called
he Ten Commandments of Health.
Were these commandments lelig-
)’isly kept and handed down fro
ather to son a large percentage o
he ills flesh is heir to would be era’,
icated, the span of human life in
■reused, and a few generations hence
would find a race cf supermen,.
The Ten Commandments of Heal Hi
some of which are very, timely, aw
vassed on as the weekly health mes
sage to Oklahoma’s population:
1. Thou shalt have no unvaccinated
person in thy family.
2. Thou shalt not take unto thee
any hot biscuit (eat whole-wheat
bread), nor any mince pie nor any
harness thereto, for thy stomach is a
iealous stomach, visiting pain and dis-
comfort upon them that abuseth it.
3. Thou shalt not take any paten*
or advert sed medicines for thy ills.

Some lawyers are so energetic they
perform a double duty. They get into
congress and the state legislatures
and help make the laws and then aid
their clients to evade them.
. People who say nasty things about
other people behind their backs should
wait until their victims are close
enough to hear and turn around. Then
they wouldn’t say ’emtand this wowld
be a beautiful and living world*

The fellow who is fond of hearing
his own voice can seldom understand
why other people are so deaf.
Don’t be too sever in condemning
the spoiled child. Its parents are
proud of the responsibility.
Voliva, who insists the world is flat,
might prove his contention by hoof-
ing it until he drops off.
It’s perfectly safe to listen to the
person who is always giving away
advice. It’s a cheap way of finding
out what not to do.
On cold wintry days we quite agreed
with the scientist who avers that the
north pole has shifted its position.
The pesky thing has been trying to
break through our immigration laws
As a rule the man who is willing to
tackle a difficult taks doesn’t fint it so
difficult after he gets to going.
The quickets route to stardom in
the movies is to get written up in con-
nection with an unsavory scandal.
Everybody “just simply has to see the
horrid thing.”
Proof conclusive that the president
aspires to a second term is the fact
that he continues to have his shoes
half soled.
