KING TO VISIT U. S, ! ON TOUR OF WORLD; SEEKS KHOVLEDGE (By Associated Press) CAIRO. July 1. King Fuad I of - Egypt intends to visit the L'nltea States as well as Europe in his tours this year, in'order to acquaint himself with the new movements of the world and eo ho better Qualified to govern his people wisely. This project, coupled with the official announcement that the governments - of Spain. France. Germany, Italy and Persia have informed Egypt that thev have raised their diplomatic
agencies and consulates general in I Cairo to legations, has brought closer j to the Egyptian people the fact that
Egypt has at last attained her true independence. It is rumored that the commission entrusted with the drawing of the new constitution for the country has decided that the national assembly, which is to be elected soon, should consist of two bodies, a chamber of deputies and a senate. The members of the former are to be elected by popular vote, while members of the latter ar to be confined to princes of the royal family, ex-premiers, ministers, high spiritual chiefs and leading notables of whom 50 are to be elected and 30 nominated. The commission will provide for the creation of a supreme court modelled after that of the United States, with power to pass on the constitutionality of the laws of the land. The king is to have nominal powers only, the real power being vested in the council of ministers which would be responsible to the national '. assembly.

Former Chewing Gum King, Now Penniless, Starts All Over Again (By United Press) CLEVELAND. July 1. J. W. White, former multi-millionaire chewing gum king and ex-congressman, now almost penniless, has rolled up his sieves and started over again in a second attempt to retrieve his lost fortune. Just as he started out in the 70's peddling his gum from store to 6tore, so has White begun work again. With his own hands, a few weeks ago, he rolled out a sheet of gum after heating It over a stone in his rooms. After it had cooled, he took a jackknife, cut it into strips and made these up into packages. He had a few .wrappers printed. ' A day later White peddled his handmade gum to four Cleveland stores. "Just place this on sale and see what happens," he told the proprietors. 'If there is a demand for John White's gum, I want to know It." White leased a room on the top floor of an office building. "I have been beaten many times and physicians have given me only a few weeks to live," said White with a grin, "but I'm still living and working and headed for the winning tape." j . Rose to the Top in 18S2, White , and his wife made'
gum in a wash boiler in a cottage here. Five years later they moved to a pretentious home on Detroit avenue and on that site later the large White factory was erected. Vast riches, yachts, race horses, mansions, European trips, a seat in congress and a millionaire's divorce followed In rapid succession. ' He married again. Then he entered into a contract with the chicle trust. Through a twist in business he lost a big part of his interest His "fastest yacht on the lakes" was beaten. His "Two Minute" stock farm lost him thousands. Finally came word that White was "broke" both in finances and health.
This was in 1911. One year later
White appeared in Buffalo, removed
his coat, rolled up his sleeves and be
gan a fight to retrieve his fortune.
Soon he had the backing of several wealthy men, opened up a $300,000
plant and began the manufacture of gum. But the Chicle trust, jealous of the White name, sued him for using it. "I beat them in the suit," said White today, "but the filing of the suit defeated me because no jobber or retailer would take my gum."

his own role of Indian chief in tho forthcoming First National attraction, "The Primitive Lover," starring Constance "Talmadge. The star Is the object of the suits of two rivals, both of whom seek her hand, but by different methods. One of them, nonplussed by her apparent aloofness, is discouraged and ready to withdraw when he runs across the Indian chief and tries to explain his trouble to the passing redman. The latter has twenty-six
wives; but his vocabulary is limited and he is unable to answer the question. At that appropriate moment one of his wives cornea In and argues with him about an order he has given; and the redskin chief gives an ocular answer to the white man's query about how to handle a recalcitrant
woman. The demonstration is so convincing that the suitor goes back and shows, Constance the same lesson with the result that is extremely surprising to both of them. Comedy surprises furnish the big
gest laughs in "The Primitive Dover," which has already been placed in the class of the year's best comedie3.. The star does some discriminating acting in her interpretation of the
romance stricken girl and Justme3 her sobriquet of screendom's greatest mimic. "The Primitive Lover" was adapted by Frances Marion from an original story by Edgar Selwyn. It will be at the Murrette for four days.

WASHINGTON V There are six married couples represented In the cast of "Is Matrimony , a Failure?" the new Paramount spe
cial comedy, directed by James Cruze which comes to the Washington "theatre tomorrow. ' As suggested by the title, this Is a comedy of matrimonial errors and although the picture presents and discusses in a highly humorous vein, the question, it doesn't attempt to answer it, but closes, as it begins, with a large interrogation point. The six families are played by the following well-known screen artists: T. Roy Barnes and Lila Lee, Lois Wilson and Walter Hiers, ZaSu Pitts and
Arthur Hoyt, Lillian Lelghton and Tully Marshall, Sylvia Ashton and Otis Harlan and Charles Ogle and
Ethel Wales. In addition to these
there are several other important
characters, which make this cast one
of the largest assemblages of screen
luminaries ever seen. The stage success "The Open Door" was the basis for this new. comedy, which was scenarized by Walter Woods.

That is, of course, if the phonograph records she has made were placed side by side. They'd cover 150 square miles. The sale of her records has passed the million mark. Her voice line on the records totals more than 600,000,000 feet. ,

YE FLAPPER OF 1731 ADDICTED TO SNUFF
From the Detroit News There was one habit prevalent among her prototypes in 1731 which the modern flapper has not yet adopted the snuff habit. And as today, the older folk were not above following the lead of the youngsters. Read these extracts from a protesting letter from an "Old Subscriber" published in his favorite journal of May 31, 1731: "This silly trick of taking snuK is attended with a Cocquet Air in some young (as well as older) gentlewomen and such a sedate Masculine one In others that I cannot tell which most to complain of, but they are to me equally disagreeable. As to those who take it for pretty
action or to fill up little Intervals

"On Sunday was .sevennlght, when they came about for the Offering, she gave her . Charity with a , very good Air, but at the same time asked the Church warden if he would take a Pinch."

MURRAY All ye lovers of a good fight and a good right, form in line in front of the Murray theatre and grab an eyefull of Conway Tearle in "The Refer
ee," his newest Selznick production.!
After viewing this exceptionally ex
citing picture it is obvious that Tearle ;
is king of the film fighters. Pug and rough-necks hold few terrors for Tearle. But there is one little gent who carries around a bow and arrow who finally sends Tearle to the mat for the count of ten. Boys, step up and meet Cupid! "The Referee" is perhaps the best story Mr. Tearle has ever had in his distinguished career. The star is singularly suited to the role he portrays,
for it is rumored that he is quite a fighter in the ranks of amateur pugilists. Judging by "The Referee" the life of a motion picture star is a strenuous one, but Conway Tearle stripped
to the Ekin God gave him looks as if
he is no stranger to punching bags and skipping ropes. You probably remember reading Gerald Beaumont's story, "John McArdle, Referee," in The Red Book. In his line sports stories Beaumont is practically unbeatable. However, the Selznick company has gone Beaumont one better than the resulting film is a regular bang-up affair that never lets up until the final half-inch is reached. It will keep you so glued to the edge of your chair that you will probably be reprimanded for breathing down the neck of the person sitting in front of you.
The picture is crammed full of ac-

Quarterly Communion At Reid Memorial Church The regular quarterly communion services of the Reid Memorial United Presbyterian church will be held Sunday morning at 10:30, the regular hour of morning worship. At this time the new members who have affiliated with the church since the
last communion will be publicly received. The sacrament of adult baptism also will be administered during the morning service. Services preparatory to the observance of the sacrament of the Lord's supper, were fceld at the church Thursday and Friday nights of this week. The Rev. J. M. Rife, of Falrhaven, w - the preacher on Thursday night, ana te Rev. Dr. Frank Boyd, of College Corner, preached on Friday night. The attendance at these services, in spite of the hot weather, by far exceeded the best previous record for mid-week services. There will be a substantial accession to the membership of Raid Memorial church at the Sunday service.
