50-50 SPLIT WANTED BY PRINTING TRADE, OFFICIALS DECLARE
Addresses by Fred Barker of Spokane, Wash.; D. W. Baird of New York City and J. M. Dugan of Cincinnati, members of the auditing committee of the International Typographical Union, featured the meeting of Typographical Union No. SOI Wednesday evening. The visitors were entertained at a banquet which was attended by members of the union and representatives of the employers of the city. That there has been too much organizing to keep apart and not enough to get together In the printing and employing fields of the industry was the statement of Fred Barker, who spoke first "Employers and employes in cities of this size have one advantage over those In larger cities," he said. "In many cases the employers have grown up with their printers, and as a result we have a spirit that mates for co-operation and progress. It is fortunate that this friendly relation can be maintained. The ability to meet together around a table irons out many difficulties." Want 50-50 Split John Dugan of Cincinnati, who has appeared here as a baseball player and ximpire on a number of occasions, spoke next. After describing a number of problems with which the organization had met in Cincinnati, he said: "We realize that unless our employers are making money we can not draw the wages that will enable us to maintain our standard of living. All we ask is a 50-50 split. We do not want the best or the worst of it. "We know the value of an education and we want our children to have it. We want our children to have ac complishments and we want them to wear clothes as good as those worn by any other class of people. Patriotic Body. "There is not a more patriotic organization in this country than the Typographical union. Ten percent of its members responded to the call to arms. Two hundred and fifty-one of those men are dead, and 170 died in active service. "In the treasury of the international organization lies $720,000 worth of liberty bonds, in the treasuries of the various local unions is another $170,000 worth and the individual members hold $6,757,790 worth. Can you call an organization of that kind unpatriotic?" D. W. Baird of New York city spoke briefly, expressing his pleasure at being present as did Andrew C. Allen of the Ballinger company. Lucius Harrison presided.

One third of your life is allotted to sleep. Do you get your share?
The most important period in the process of applying nutrition to the repair of the body is while you are asleep For the most favorable transformation of digested food into nerve and cell tissue, so doctors tell us, sleep is absolutely essential. Is it any wonder that those who suffer from lack of proper sleep are weak, pale and lacking in energy or ambition? One of the causes of insomnia is nerve-irritation from tea and coffee drinking.

WASHINGTON STOCK One of the greatest hits in the past 20 years "The Storm" will be the attraction at the Washington all next week by the Jack Bessey stock players. For a solid year "The Storm" played at the 48th Street theatre, New York city. Six montlhs at the Olympic theatre, Chicago, seven weeks in .Brooklyn, New York (which established a record for the latter city) and six weeks at the Manhattan opera house, New York city. No matterwhere "The Storm" has been presented it has created new records for theatre attendance. This play, whil a melodrama, is one of the most convincing and human melodramas written and produced in the past decade. The curtain rises on a forest primeval, and it is in this beautiful spot that the action of the play takes place. The story tells of a young girl, Manette Fachard, an appealing young French Canadian, who, because of the death of her father and a terrific blizzard which is one of the big scenic effects of the play is forced to remain shut up in a cabin in this woods with a rugged western American and an Englishman. Both profess love for her, but she realizes if she admits love for one the other will kill him. Her problem Is to keep these men apart and maintain peace. Affairs develop to such an extent that she realizes sooner or later the storm of emotions in the breasts of the men will burst all bounds. She plans to escape, but the forest fire circumvents her. How she solves her problem is best left to the author who has written a ?lay tense with thrilling situations, relieved by delightful scenes of bubbling humor. RICHMOND. "This Is a most perfect English room!" exclaimed Elinor Glyn, noted British novelist, as the finishing touches were put upon a setting which had been prepared for scenes in "The Great Moment,' Gloria Swanson's first Paramount starring vehicle which is showing at the Richmond theatre. The setting represents the boudoir of an English girl played by Miss Swanson, in an old ancestral home. The author, who wrote the story especially for Miss Swanson, rendered valuable assistance to the director in other angles of production, and especially in the dressing of the English settings. In this story Miss Swanson is seen as the half gypsy daughter of an English lord, whose father rears her in strict seclusion, fearing that her mother's nomadic instincts will rssert themselves over the subdued English culture. Later, however, on a trip to America, the girl falls in love with a young mining engineer, is bitten by a rattlesnake and taken by him to his mountain cabin. There, intoxicated from the whiskey which he had given her as an antidote, she feels the gypsy spell and brings about a situation which results in many dramatic and highly emotional episodes. Milton Sills plays the leading supporting role. Sam Wood directed and the story was picturized by Monte M. Katterjohn. MURRAY. James Kirkwood, who plays the role of Abel Blake in "The Forbidden Thing," produced bv Allan Dwau, playing soon at the Murray theatre, fel lin love with the character assigned to him in the production. It was the most lovable, human and sincere character ever given him, he save, and this is the way he describes Abel Blake, rugged descendent of the Mayflower colonists: "Abel is just a plain American young man, with a mother, a little money and a sweetheart. Abel would suffer death if it would save either his mother or his sweetheart any ! worry or trouDie. in mis resoiuuuu ne has committea nimseir xuiiy. "But Abel is also human. That's why he may be lovable, or why he might bring down the wrath of the community upon his head. In spite of his fine resolutions, he goes astray.

Therefore, it is with a sense of joy that we see Abel finally rise from his surroundings and again reassert himself. This is the finest'type of heroism, and I enjoyed every minute I was -playing in that role." MURRETTE. "I am thinking of playing a picture practically all In character," explain ed Mary "Pickford, "without curls, without straight makeup and in shab by clothes. It will be a character on the order of Unity Blake in 'Stella Maris,' but totally different. The sweetheart of the world curled up in the chair of her dressing room, was discussing the United Artists' production of "Suds, which is at the Murrette theatre, and In which she ap pears1 as the woebegone little slavey in a laundry in the slums of London who reconciles herself to the life she is living by her vivid imagination and the mental pictures of herself as a high and mighty "liddy." "Do you know," she continued, "lots of people don't believe that I played Unity. They think all I did was the part of Stella and hired some actress to play Unity for me. Now if I do a whole story all in character and put my name on it, they cannot help but say I played the part. I am sure that in 'Suds they will have to admit that I am clavinar both characters. "To create a character like that and sustain it through an entire picture is much more difficult than playing oneself. Although in real lite ana when I was a little girl I never did the things I did in 'Daddy Long Legs' or 'Pollyanna. I never played with boys or was the least bit boisterous. Perhaps one reason was because I have been working since I was five years old and didn't have the time." URGES CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL (By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 2. Establishment of a hospital for psychopathic children of Ohio is strongly urged by Dr. H. H. Goddard, director of the state bureau of juvnile research in a report here. The founding of such an institution, Dr. Goddard asserts would enable many children to be cured permanently. Big Ulcer All Healed "NOW I CAN- WALK," SAYS MRS SOUTHCOTT, OF MEDINA. Here is another letter that makes me happy," says Peterson, of Buffalo. "One that I would rather have than a thousand dollars." "Money isn't everything in this world. There is many a big-hearted rich man who would give all he has on earth to be able to produce a remedy with such mighty healing power as Peterson's Ointment, to sell at all druggists for 35 cents a large box." Read this letter, written February 14, 1918, by Mrs. Albert Southcott, of Medina, N. Y. It seems like a miracle, but it Is true every word of it. , I know it because I get similar letters almost every day from people who have used my ointment for old sores, eczema and piles. Is it any wonder I am happy? Peterson Ointment Co., Inc., Buffalo N. Y. Dear Sirs: 'T was an untold sufferer from an old running sore and ulcers.
