Her most important work was in "The Old Soak" and her performance in this picture resulted in Universal's offering her a contract which will insure her association with the company for a period of several years.

CHINESE STILL BINDING FEET

the North a couple of years ago, many of the children had to unbind their feet, or their parents would be fined. Hundreds of young girls thus unbound their feet but have since bound them again, as no one troubles to enforce the old ruling.” “How about bobbed hair?” Walker was asked. “In the villages in my territory 1 seldom see bobbed hair. In some of the towns it is absolutely forbidden. In Tan-fu, a small town near Tatungfu, a woman of 37 years who bobbed her hair was flogged publidj by order of the magistrate. "I have not visited Shanghai in many years and the changes I note among Chinese women here amazes me. Here they bob their hair, use the lipstick freely and openly, puff their cigarettes on the street and unbind their feet. Theirs is freedom unknown to the girls of the North.”

BREAK IN WHEAT PRICES CHICAGO, April 17. (UP)— The long expected break in a sensationally strong wheat market seemed to h^ve come today, as all wheat futures openly sharply lower on the board of trade. Corn and oats held firm. The break in wheat was caused by sudden weakness at Liverpool, after that market had opened sharply higher. Sentiment is divided between belief that a reaction is overdue, and hope that prices will advance still higher on the expected shortage of winter wheat.

Coolidge In Talk Stated That Country Is Best Served Through ( onipetition of Private Enterprises. WASHINGTON April 17 (UP)— President Coolidge reaffirmed his position against entry of the federal government into private business enterprises in an address here last night before the Daughter- of the Ameri-

can Revolution.

Asserting that "in general the coun try i- best served through the competition of private enterprise” and that “if the people are to remain politically free, they must be economically free,” the President said: “The very essence of business is the exception of a profit on the part of those who conduct it. Government is conducted from an entirely different motive. When business is in private hands, it is expected to be run for the benefit of the owners. When the government steps in, the purchasers, users, and beneficiaries of what the government undertakes to supply insist that the concern should be conducted for their benefit.” Under these conditions, the President pointed out, business lacks enterprise and initative and has no motive to provide an improved service. Continuing, Mr. Coolidge said: “Flowing out of these unavoidable conditions, if the government gets into business on any large -cale, we soon find that the beneficiaries attempt to play a large part in the control. While in theory it is to serve the public, in practice it will be very largely serving private interests. It come- to he regarded as a species ot governmtnt favor and those who are most adroit get the larger part of it. Men in public life are besought to secure place- of employment for some persons in their locality and favorable contracts for others. The situation rapidly develops into a position of intrenched self-hness, where

that no single Item of historical importance attracts as muoh attention as do those which relate themselves to Abraham Lincoln. There is more call for literature «n Abraham Lincoln from the big libraries than there Is on any statesman, Hv. Ing nr dead, Including Washington. As the automobile people say, Lincoln is Indiana's beat advertised name and they consider it not only good patriotism but good bualness to erect a ahrine of such beauty and magnificence as to be in keeping with the subject and that will challenge the attention of tourist* from all over the United Btatea. %!■»•>if I1hA««i»W

' "With all the care that it is possible to exercise, a situation of this kind becomes entangled in favoritism and is always in great danger of causing corruption and scandal.” If it is desirable to avoid “the blighting effects of monopoly supported by the money of the taxpayer,’ prevent existence of a privileged class, shield public officials from the influence of propaganda, and “keep the government unencumbered and clean, with an eye .-ingle to public service,” the President declared, “we shall leave the conduct of our private business with the individual, where it belongs, and not undertake to unload it on the government." Mr. Coolidge’* plea against governmental participation in private businesses predicted his opinion that the rights of individual states should lie scrupulously regarded insofar as they did not violate the Constitution, and that “they should he left alone to solve their own problem in their own way under the pressure of public opinion, rather than have outside authority step in to attempt to solve

it for them.”

"There are always those who are willing to surrender local self-gov-ernment and turn over their affairs to some national authority in exchange for a payment of money out of the federal treasury,” President Coolidge said. “Whenever they find that some abu-e needs correction in their neighborhood, instead of applying a remedy themselves they seek to have a tribunal sent on from Washington to discharge their duties for them, regardless of the fact that in accepting such supervision they are bartering away their freedom.”

And the Dutch fastidious-j ness was in evidence everywhere, from the absence of rubbish and lit-J ter of all kinds, to the neat pointing! of the grass at the roadside. The houses were quaint and interesting, with their saddle-like roofs. The natives were for the most part hospit-

able.

Here on the Island we had an interesting experience. After driving 100 mile.- we found we were lost. Not having mastered the language of the Island we could not communicate our wants to the driver and he did not know the country, after spending 8 hours in our machine we found we were 85 miles from Padang-pandyung and were soon safe with our party. March 10th we arrived at Batavia, Java, a most interesting island. Think! of a little island of Java with thirty-1 three million people living here, more than 700 to each square mile. Again | 1 want to doff my hat to the Dutch as their influence is predominant in the life and architecture every where we go. They have built canals and water ways most everywhere and in Batavia they are using on rails a compressed steam engine, the only one like it in the world. At Buitenzong, about 40 miles from Batavia we found a most wonderful! botanical garden, containing the finest specimen of tropical plants in the world, from there we drove 35 miles into the country to our guide's home, sending one of his servants up a cocoanut tree about 50 feet high, getting a half dozen coeoanuts, serving us with the fresh milk and meat of

two of them.
