"Furthermore we have just received the information that the pink boll worm in certain districts of Tc vis is beyond the control of the state authorities. Therefore we regret very much that we are unable to comply with Governor Hobby's request. "Very respectfully, "E. W. HUDSON, Chairman." Governor Hobby's wire to Governor Campbell follows: Governor Hobby's Request "Austin, Texas.

ITALY GETS COAL (Living Age) The partition of Turkey, while it re sulted in Italy's receiving but minor territorial concessions, has given that country valuable commercial advan tages in the eastern Mediterranean. Among the more important of these is virtual control of the coal regions around ancient Heraclea on the Black Sea. The colleries lie some 25 miles from the port of Zongulvah, with which they have railway , connection, and from which about two thousand tons of coal were shipped daily before the war. Production can be greatly aug mented, as the Turkish government has hitherto placed many obstacles in the way of ' scientifically developing this property.

Strand Irene Castle first broke into the lime light when, with her husband, she be came the dancing rage of two con tinents, and later a a film star she made a lot oi good pictures. She is known all over the world as the best dressed woman on stage or screen. In "The Amateur Wife" she is first seen as an "ugly duckling" just home from the convent where her chorus girl mother has had her hidden. When she arrives home she finds that mother, instead of the great sta-ge artist, is the cheapest kind of a chorus "vamp," and later when the mother arouses the ire of one of her stage door "Johns" and he ki!l3 her the girl is left alone in the world with nothing: but her convent education to take her through a world where her mother had spent her time with wine and cigarettes. The "ugly duckling'' gets a, husband, but he mar ries her out of pity and then tells her so, and this so angers her that she 'rises to the occasion and makes a name for herself as the fastest living matron in New York. Hubby gets back from a trip to Egypt to find that the dull little mouse that he had left here is the best dressed woman in New York and that she is a sensation with her drives, her clothes, her fads, and her entertainments. At that she is clean and when he finds out just whc an attractive girl she has turned to from the unpromising con vent miss he falls ii love with her, and then she shows him how to "play dead" with some to spare. The picture is a finely drawn story- and gives Mrs. Castle the chance she likes to wear a world of finefeathers. Her wardrobe for this occasion is said to have cost more than in any picture she has ever made.
