BUSINESS MEN STUDY MISSIONARY WORKS
(Br Associated Press) EVANS TON, Oct. 26. Because missionary projects are Instrumental . in remaking old governments and transforming social and economical condi
tions in backward lands, business and ',,
proiessioai men snouid study missionary literature, according to the Rev, Enoch F. Bell, editor of the Missionary Herald, who today addressed the 113th annual meeting of "he American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions in session here Mr. Bell's address followed the reports of several missionaries who told of the transformations taking place iu several lands in the Far East. . "Statesmen, world economists, captains of industry and prominent educators acknowledge that Christianity is the only solution of the social, economic and religious conditions which distress mankind," said Mr. Bell. "Correspondingly the missionary finds himself enjoying a new status in these days. He has become a world figure, a true internationalist, a preserver o?
peace and a promoter of the higher life of the world. Must Know Movements "Business and professional men who wish to keep well informed concerning jthe movements in the world that affect economic and political conditions cannot afford to ignore the opportunities to study foreign missionary movements. The ideas of peace, liberty, love and good will which are taught as by-products of Christian living are gripping the men and- women of the world. The? are transforming ;governments and influencing international diplomacy. Many big business i men are thrilled with the study of the missionary enterprise: This is the world's biggest business and one in which all persons should have a part." Mr. Bell urged that all church memfbers enlist in the mission study classes
I for men and women and that they sub-
scribe lor missionary literature.

She Is Mrs. 1-aura Frazier, 86 years old and is matron of the Home for the Friendless. Mrs. Frazter is said to know more about Mark Twain's j'QUth than any .'other living person. She and, Mark started going to school together the Fame year. He wa3 7 and she was 6. Their houses were across the street from each other in Hannibal. Mark had long golden curls hanging over his shoulders. He used to carry her books to school every morning and carry them home in the evening. And he'd treat her to apples and oranges and divide his candy with her. Was Good Skater In the winter Mark spent most of liis time on the ice.

AMUSEMENT!
MURRAY In producting the splendid story of Wolves of the Street," which Is being
shown at the Murray theatre, the Art-
O-Graf Film company, Inc., of Den
ver, Colo., is giving to the public one
phase of the underhand methods resorted to by the Bolshevlkl to cripple America's industries. The story dwells on an attempt upon the part of a group . of Soviets, under the protection of the American
government, to cripple the American
wheat industry. A virile young west
erner, however, is big enough to cope
with the situation and he is really in
strumental in foiling the Reds carefully arranged plot. Edmund F. Cobb, referred 'to in two
trade journals as America's fastest rising film star, plays the part of the young westerner in a manner that earns him nothing but the highest praise of the critics vho saw the first run. Vida Johnson, supporting Cobb, is seen to advantage. This film, like Art-O-G rat's other features, is directed by Otis B. Thayer, a real fixture in filmdom.
V1TAMINES ARE REAL
DESPITE INVISIBILITY
' (From the Detroit News.) The name vitamlne has been given 1o the substanceor substances which though present in minute quantities in foods, are absolutely essential to a continuation of the life process. We have used them always, but we have discovered them only within the last f ?w years, comparatively. No one has rver eet eyes on a vitamlne, but vitamines are real things, and quite indispensable to our dietary, food scientists tell us. But just what the vitamlnes supply, no. one seems to know for a certainty. Some scientists are of the opinion that
they supply the body with certain
necessary chemical units which th
body is unable to manufacture. Others
regard them in the light of stimulator?
in that , they exert a stimulating influence upon the various activities oi
the body. But all this is said to be intelligent guesswork, and nothing
more.
OlV The word vitamine was coined by
T'asimir Funk, a Pole. The first part of the word indicates its relation to the life process; the second to its chemical nature.
, , MURRETTE To everyone of us there comes a time when we feel that we would lik9 to appear on the etage and thrill a large enthusiastic audience with our histrionic art. Usually this desire comes at an early age, just about the time we are finishing school and are looking about for a profession. In the case of Richard Dix, leading
male player in Marshall Neilan's
"Fools First," a First National attraction at the Murrette theatre, this stage
aspiration came only after he had de
cided to become a physician. As a student at the University o:
Minniesota, Dix studied medicine for
two years before he became obsessed with the feeling that -the stage was the thing for him. Dix had the courage of his convictions and sacrificed two years of diligent study to start at the bottom and work his way up to stage glory. Born in Minneapolis, Dix first tried out his hlstronic possibilities with a local stock company in St. Paul. It was .not long before he discovered- that he could find much work on the stage, and a successful career behind the footlghts followed. While playing a Los Angeles engagement he received an attractive offer from a picture producer, and his screen career was launched. The .actor's hobby is his mother. He spends more time with her than with any other person. He also has a little sister of whom he is very proud. When asked if he was married, the handsome leading man, with a twinkle in his eye, replied: "No, but if the right woman comes along I'm ready to tread the path to the altar."

FREE FROM DEBTS
There Is no poverty in Tonga, the
little kingdom of 100 isles in the Pa
cific Ocean but there is no wealtn
The tribal or communal system, which
has prevailed from time immemorial
is altogether opposed to any member
of the tribe accumulating property. To those whose ideals of economic life
are realized In short hours of labor, abundance of food and neither poverty
nor riches, Tonga should be Utopia.
Adults are subject to a poll tax, and
in return the government grants an area of eight and a quarter acres for
plantation purposes. Financially, the
kingdom is sound, and Tonga is said to
be the only country in the world with-
out a national debt.
There is always one cloud on th
horizon annexation. The appearance of a gray gunboat in Tongan waters
is a sign for conjecture and the hushed
question, "Will the flag go up?" The Tongan believes that by proving his ability to conduct his own affairs he
will be left, in peace and independen

MOHAMMEDAN LEGEND
OF COLOSSAL STATUE
- (From the Detroit News.) .
There is a Jegend that while Mo
hammed was still alive there was a
schism among his followers, and the smaller party moved away from Arabia, and eventually crossed Africa. They took away with them, in their
exile, a valuable relic of their old faith in the shape of a large piece of black stone of Mecca. The stone was a meteoric Gire, and In its fall upon
tne eartn it broke into two pieces. One of the pieces is supposed to still be at Mecca. The larger piece was carried away to Barbarry, where a
sKiurui worser modeled it into a statue of gigantic siza. Some of the tribe wandered to the south hundreds of years ago. and one of them, wishing
to nave good luck for the enterorise.
got into th sacred temple at night and
camea oir one of the statue's ears.
It is believed that the man who car
ried it away was caught by some slaver off the Barbary coast, but that
the ear will come back some day, that
tne statue will be restored home in its original form, and that these wander
ing descendants of the original Mohammed will forever after be protected from their enemies.

EARLY VIOLIN BOWS WERE CRUDE AFFAIRS
The instruments of the "string choir" are all played with a bow, with occasional pizzicato, or plucking of the strings, as required by the music, says the Detroit News. A bow is an instrument of wood and horse hair employed to set the strings of the violin or other musical instrument in vibration. As its name implies, it was originally curved. The violin bow is usually about 29 inches long and the stick has a slight curve inward. The violin-cello bow is a little shorter. The doubliass bow has a large arch and is shower. The early bows were so crude that they
added little to the delicacy of tone. The earliest improvement was made when a metal band with teeth-like edges were introduced with the design of regulating the position and tension
of the hair at or near the handle. It was reserved for Francois Tourte (1747-1S33) to devise the plan of keeping the hair flat by means of a clasp, and the screw and button for slacking or tightening the hair at pleasure.
