Wally was among the shining faces I that peered out at the public, which' was still dazed at seeing pictures, actually moving, and along with I John Iiunny, "Broncho Billy” And- j arson and Flora Finch, he built up; such popularity, as a comedian that, I it is safe to say, is rivaled by no | one today. Of course Wally was just \ a hoy then and for that matter lie; still iH. but a few years ago he left the movies flat, never to return. It’s like everything else, this mov-; ie game, and "they" say, if yon once j get the sunil in your shoes, you un bound to go book ami so here is an other case where "they” are right. Van’s first picture since his re lurn is "The Drivin’ Fool,” a llori- L kinson picture which will be shown j at the Coliseum theatre beginning; Thursday. Thrills, suspettce and ro-1 malice are crammed Into this swift - moving comedy and gives Wally a! great chance to display bis happy-go lucky ways. A strong supporting cast includes, Patsy Until Miller, Alec B. Francis, Wilton Taylor, Ham sev Wallace and others. _ i "THE COMMON LAW" COMING TO PALACE Several of the principal players and more than five hundred extras worked through two nights making scenes for George J.

A -jazz band played through both evenings to supply music to the dancers, and a ton of confetti, streamers, garlands, etc., was demolished in the effecting of wild pre-prohibition hilarity. Cor inne Griffith, Conway Tearle, Eliott Dexter, Phyllis Haver, Bryant Wash-, burn, and Harry Myers served In the all-night vigil which lusted until! five o’clock in the morning. Several well known screen players! visited the set and took part in the: scenes of Hie frolic, and practically i every extra in Hollywood was need ed to fill the immense cafe.

The spot chosen for the device should be quite a distance from the bank, to per mit skaters to whirl in a 40 or 50-ft. circle if they desire. Chop a hole in the ice slightly larger than the butt of the post and set the post in the mud on the bot tom so that about 6 ft. of it remains above the ice. Throw the chunks of ice back into the hole around the post and allow it to freeze over again, later carry ing away the remainder of the ice chips, which might trip the skaters. With a saw or plane, go around the top edge of the post, making a wide bevel. Now bore a 1-in. hole into the top end of the post for a distance of 12 or 14 in. Drive the 1-in. iron rod into the post, leaving about half the length of the rod exposed to view. Place a washer over the rod and oil it well. Then slip the rake wheel in place. Cut a number of ropes into 8 or 10-ft. lengths and tie them to the spokes if the wheel. Two long ropes tuay alra lie attached, each 20 or 30 ft., but they should be on opposite sides of the wheel. When the lung iopep are used, they should be coiled lip and belli i by the skater, later being slowly payei out as he skates about the whirligig uu til he is swinging in a large circle. There are two general ways of usinj the device, one being to start from i standstill, with a skater on each rope, j The skating becomes faster and faster until all are coasting while one or two : continue to skate. Another way is to catch at the ropes while it is in motion. First, one skater heads for the ropes at I full speed, grasps one of the ropes as he j passes by, and starts whirling about. A second boy skates up and catches a rope, I being careful to watch for u good open- ] ing. Another skater flashes in and takes i possession of another rope, und this is continued until the whirligig is flying around at a fast clip. By tying a rope which is 75 or 100 ft. long to the wheel and liaving the others skate around it, one can slowly start a huge track id-out the wheel, and as the 3[<eed increases, it will be necessary to coast to keep one's balance. Then release the hold on the rope and sail off in a wide arc. One can find a down other different stunts. * • • Preventing Headphone Cords from Twisting Headphones often have a tendency to turn around in the frames that hold them and this causes the cord to kink, Making it unhandy to put the set over the ears. An easy way to overcome this difficulty is to remove each phone and slip a short heavy rubber band over the sliding adjustment rod. as shown in the illus tration; unscrew the rubber cap of the phone; pass a piece of string through the rub ber band, and wind the string in the last two threads on the phone body. Then, by screwing the cap tight, the string will be securely held oo the shell, and the phones cannot tuns. GOVERNMENT OFFICE BEAL SLEUTH HOUND Federal Printer Held to In dict Whisky Forgers— Case Is Worked Up. WASHINGTON. Fob. 17.—How tile government printing office turned detective mid materially assisted in the conviction of seven melt who participated in one of the biggest whisky frauds aver prosecuted mi ller ihe prohibition law lias been dis closed in the annual report of Geo rge II. Carter, (lie public printer. Three hundred suspected permits for the withdrawal of whisky from bonded warehouse had beep’ seized by the department of justice) and the bureau of internal revenue, and con stituted the only material evidence in tile government's cast* lagainst the distillery of A. Gnekenheimer Bros. Co. and 13 individual defendents, charged with the illegal withdrawal of large quantities of bonded whis key from Pittsburg warehouses. A number at these permits, how ever, hud been so cleverly imitated by the photo-engraving process that they completely defiled all attempts at detection by experts, and the de fendants' contention that they were legal permits issued by government officials seemed for a time to be irrefutable. The public printer finally suggest ed that a test be made of the pap er used In both TfllIgemiine and the false permits. It was learned that I lie true permits were on a fill per cent rag paper, With the govern ment's water-mark running length wise of the sheet. The suspected permits on the oilier hand, were printed on paper on which ihe wat ermark, although correctly reading "Internal Revenue Prohibition,” ran across instead of lengthwise of the sheet. Furthermore, the paper var ied in composition fro mall wood pulp to 95 percent rag content. The evidence submitted by the printing office appeared conclusive to tlie courts, and aided the govern ment in obtaining the conviction in May. 1924, of seven of the defend ants. LEAGUE MAY TACKLE DIFFICULT TASK OF MUNITIONS CONTROL (Continued ^rom Page One.) other than that already provided for by Hie treatiea of peace, can be • tak en in ttiu case 'of producing states against me right of their private factories to nuinifacture wav .nnter s. i ne commission decided also that even if at some future Unit measures were- contemplated to d muiish production, no action shoul-i ba taken to prevent non-producing states from becoming producers U they had the will and the means. Later tiie disarmament commission suggested as reasonable measures that no munitions of war could be manufactured without a government license, publication by armament firms of complete reports on their financial situation and llieir con tracts, auditing < of manufacturer.!' accounts by governmental agents, and the prohibition that no persons interested in armament production could hold stock in similar firms in oilier countries, or he permitted to publish newspapers. Another uni quo idea officially put forward was that no warship could lie transferred from one flag to another, without due notice licdng given to the League of Nations. Private Problem::. Since 1021 life problem of pri vate manufacture has dragged on without seeing very great progress because the opinion grew that, as a whole, it could he better attacked by first solving Ihe question of con tra! of the traffic in arms from one country to another. This conclus ion was based on the theory that the greatest international danger arose not from the free and un trammeled maunfacture of arms, hu from the unrestricted movement of these arms from, onif country to an other. It is this pause of the pro blem which will bo bandied by (lie conference in May w(th the help of the flitted Slates. However, with a solution of (he Internationa' traffic problem In sight, attention lias been concentrat ed anew on Hi ■ problem of private manufacture, and hence the decis ion to examine this at Oeneva. The Labor interests of various countries liuve come out flatly in favor of a total and complete pro hibition of private manufacture of arms, believing that this should Ip entrusted to governments and to governments alone.
