Harry Carey never strains for effects.
He does the things that you or your
neighbor might be expected to do under
the same conditions and with that un
derstanding of human nature which
marks the real artist. Carey has seen
every phase of life and the atmosphere
of the old west appeals to him most.
He not only depicts this life on the
screen, but lives it every day when not
at the studio. "The Wallop" will be
shown tonight at the Grand theater.
A Century Comedy will help round
out the program "Dandy Lions."

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, July
11. "President Harding's call for a
disarmament conference is the greatest
move for world peace since German
militarism was crushed," David Starr

"There is no more need for great navies
on the Pacific ocean than on the Great
Lakes," he said, "provided Great Brit

BELIEVES IN ADVERTISING
Nearly every screen star of note has
some slogan more or less descriptive of
liis or her qualities. In the majority of
cases these words or phrases have been
coined or originated by the publicity
department of the producing company
exploiting the star In a few cases the
iWrrintive expression came from the
critics or from the public.
The latter is the case with Harry
Carey, the popular Universal star, who
has leen dubbed "Human" Harry Carey
by so many reviewers and so many ad
mirers that the adjective has almost
become a part of his name. Hundreds
of fan letters come to the star every
week addressed "Human" Harry Carey,
and almost every criticism of his screen
work bears some reference to the hu
man quality of his work.
In Carey's latest photodrama, "The
Wallop," from a story by Eugene Man
love Rhodes, the Ace of the Saddle has
an opportunity to be "humaner" than
ever. Probably it is because loth
author and actor are so thoroughly
familiar with the unfenced" west of the

The trip was made without incident
until they reached Bijou, when Mr. Pet

finding of his son Orel's body on the
shore below Anaheim Landing, where
he was drowned last Sunday afternoon.
When Mr. Peters left the scene of the
fatal accident the remains had not been
recovered and the knowledge that the
body had been found, when he reached
the lake point, was a great relief, as
this meant the return of his wife and a
idace of rest for the mortal remains of
the boy.
In spite of the terrible shock, both to
himself and family, Mr. Peters is
standing the strain as well as could be
expected. Upon reaching home he

Those present reported a "glorious"

Due to the similarity of names of
two of the most popular auttmobil;
routes in thevicinity of Carson City,
approaching Lake Tahoe, namely,
Kings Canyon and Kingsbury grade, a
recommendation has beei made that
the former be renamed "The Ostermann
Grade.'
"The Kings Canyon guide connects
Carson City directly with Lake Tahoe
and is one of the most scenic sections
of the entire Lincoln Highwav. Much
confusion has been occas-oncd by the
