TURPIN IS A FOOTBALL PLAYER In Mack Sennetfs Latest Comedy, ‘Married Lifef

Can you imagine long-necked Ben Turpin being a college hero and a crack football pfayr ? That's the very thing that Mack Sennett has Ben to do in the new comedy, "Married Life.” The comedy opens with a football game and Ben Turpin is injured because Charles Conklin betrays his college team. Charles Conklin and James Flnlayson are rival contenders for the hand of Pbinis Haver, but when tbe fair Phyllis hears of the trick which Charlie pulled off against his team, she departs from the game on the arm of James. Phyllis and James are married and all goes well until Phyllis writes a play and rehearses the leading role. Her husband did not like this because Ben Turpin played the role of the lover and kissed fair Phyllis many times during the action of the piece. After Ben had kissed Phyllis nine hundred and fifty-three times on the night the play was presented, the soenery falls, striking Ben on the head. Turpin is rushed to the hospital And the jealous Jimmy makes up like a doctor, gives Turpin too much gas, which causes the injured Turpin to sail out of the window. Through Mack Sennett's cleverness Turpin floats on and on until he is rescued by James and Phyllis in an aeroplane.

TOM MIX AT THE ALHAMBRA. A hard-hitting deputy-marshal. That is Tom Mix in “The Terror,” which is at the Alhambra the last part of this week. We have had many western movies In the local theaters this season, and the situation Is now that a movie of that type must have plenty of action, and go at lightning speed all the way In order to make good. Mix has a way of speeding up his productions in such a way that there is plenty for him to do every moment. This picture is as fast moving as it could be and retain its appeal and interest. Mix has plenty of fights, and dives, rides, shoots, and, in fact, lives up to the theater-goer expectations of a westerner. One of the dare-devil feats of his is to drive a big truck across a field with one hand. Another is to make a big dlv# into a pond in a Quarry. Francelia Billington is Tom’s leading lady, and she has quite a little to do in tbe story. The story is concerning Mix's rounding pp of a gang of highwaymen who are causing great loss in the gold fields.

—The Gibson Company—' The Best Way To Buy The Best Car

T We are not unmindful of the responsibility of using the word “best.” It truly applies to the Overland with Triplex Springs which is the BEST car for the average motorist —BEST, by •

all odds, at its price—■—best, because no car of its size begins to be so easy riding—due, of course, to the new and proven Triplex Spring principle. ■—best, because Overland stands up under the most gruelling service and piles up its mileage with unparalleled economy. The 5,452 miles of continuous running that we gave an

Overland Touring Car, in a Seven-Day Test over frozen Indiana roads, is proof of its stamina. The fuel average for the trip—--20.24 miles per gallon of gasoline—is proof of its economy.

BEN TURPIN. The fact that Ben Thrpin is of French parentage is easily discernable in his quality of comedy which is adroit even in its most hilarious moments. His skill In burlesquerie amounts to genius, for ha imports to travesty the seriousness of legitimate efforts which, of course, only makes the comedy funnier. Ben was born in Louisiana of a French family resident in that great section ever since it was a possession of France. He speaks French, not as a Louisianan, but as a Parisian, and is as well posted in French literature as in English and American.

CHINCH BUG IS OUT ON RAMPAGE Destroying More Corn Than Army Worm Last Year. “Chinch bugs are destroying more corn In Mariorf and adjoining counties this year than army worms did last year,” said Frank N. Wallace, entomologist for the state department of conservation, today, following receipt of additional complaints of ravages of ths peat In new fields. The latest outbreaks reported to the department are in the vicinity of Cler- ( mont and Plainfield where the bugs migrated from nearby wheat fields and entered fields of corn. Mr. Wallace estimates that 90 per cent of the reports from over the state show the bugs are particularly severe this year on wheat grown in black soil. In fact, thef infestations apparently are largely confined to counties wherein black soil predominates. So voracious is the chinch bug that his kind will kill a stock of corn in two or three days, and if the number is sufficient and control is not exercised, production will be greatly reduced and an entire crop may be killed, Mr. Wallace said. Where the bugs have migrated into corn, the state entomologist recommends a spray composed of fish oil soap and Black Leaf 40 iu proportions of one pound of soap and two ounces of Black ASPIRIN \ Name “Bayer” on Genuintf I >' ' '

Post holes dug inside affected zones will rapidly be filled with bugs trying to escape, and may be easily eradicated by pouring road oil on them, according to the entomologist.
