“THE SHEPHERD KING” A SUPERIOR PICTURE Picturing the splendor of the | pyramids, the inscrutability of, the sphinx and the lonely beauty j of the Egyptian desert, the V>jlliam Fox production of "ihe Shepherd King.” from the W. A. Brady stage success, opens a two days’ engagement. Sunday and; .Monday at the Jefferson Theatre, G-shen. . J. Gordon Edwards took his cast to Cairo to film the production. which was more than a year in the making. Violet 1 Mersereau. who appears as Princess Michal, youngest daughter of Saul, enacts a splendid role with remarkable talent. The cast, ch..sen from the continental artists who made “Nero,” has done an even more impressive thing in this. Edwards employed 5.000 Bedouins and obtained 485 camels and nearly as many donkeys, to form the impressive spectacle picturing Moses leading the children of Israel out of Egypt, Nerio Bernardi, as David, is > impressive in the role, while Guido Trento, as Saul, King of; Israel, Allesandro Salvini, as Do- ! eg, the king’s supreme general, I and Edy Darclea, as Princess Merab, are cast as effectively as; they were in the production of “Nero.” “The Shepherd King?” is a I story tqo well known to require repetition; the stage play was acclaimed as a marvel of urania and the Fox picture goes to greater lengths for its realism, and impressive splendor. 0- j-. . ~w DANGER IN DELAY Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous For Sj rue use People To Neglect.

FISH AND Gt ME LAMS NEED AMENDING Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 30.— While Indiana laws are as good or better than in most states, there is need of a few to better protect and conserve the fish, and fur animals, .in the opinion of George N. Mannfeld, head of fisheries.and game, for the state conservation department. Mannfeld points out, however. that any and all laws are valueless unless rigidly enforced,; 'nd calls attention to how his division enforces laws at its command. . . ’ Mannfeld indicated that his division would sponsor enactment; of the following laws at the forthcoming session of the Gen-; eral Assembly, >.nd explained that now Indiana has become one ‘ of the best states in the Union for fishing and hunting small wild game, citizens shou’d see in rigid enforcement and protective SewsX a money value in that excellent sport attracts out-state hunters and fishermen and they pay for the privilege. » “Providing a longer closed season on rabbits and establishment of a bag limit. “Bag ITnnt on squirrels, and making it unlawful to sell the carcasses of such animals during closed season whether killed in this state or n -t. • “Change state law protecting waterfowl and other migratory game birds to conform*' to the federal regulations.

BUAVTY CROWN TO UNSHORN GIRLS (By A Feature Writer) Is bobbed hair doomed? Beauty specialists, theatrical managers and style authorities; in New York agree that the post- i war epidemic of shorn tresses. has reached its peak, and women who seek to dress "differently” are turning to "transformations,” i the Parisienne bandeau and other i means of disguising their snip-1 ped locks, according to late reports from the east. Newspaper women, in attendance at the Long Island social activities in honor of the Prince of s Wales, were impressed with the spreading hratxit of letting the hair grow long again. Society t women, they found, are pension-! ,ing the barberis shears, because I “every shop girl now has a boy-, ish shingle, my dear.’’ Rubbed Hair Too Expensive "I cut my hair three years said a young business wo- * man in a downtown office yester-1 day. “I thought I’d save a dreadful lot of time. But. gra-i cious, my 'King Tut’ cut means* oodles of bother and hair-dres-i sing expense—far more than my; old coiffure cost.” " And bobbing does destroy a| girl’s personality,” chimed in her companion. “You look like every! other girl, at dances, the theatre, J parties. We all look like orphan • asylum inmates. No individual- 1 ity. Yes, I’m letting mine grow i again.” Anyway— You niay be as beautiful as| j Helen of troy or as shapely as: 'Venus- but you’ll probably never! win a national bathing beauty 'contest if you have bobbed hair’ i To judge from the recent hap- • penings at Atlantic City, wheie the fairest of the fair from more than ninety American cities assembled to compete for the hon;or of being named "Miss America.' - the girls with the shingle [or boyish bob didn’t have a chance. True? There were a number of girls at the contest whose locks were attractively clipped—but they disappeared in the first, elimination and were never heard of again. Iksiutie \re Curl Adorned i On the other hand. Miss Ruth Malcomson, whose dark, luxurious curls fall far over her shapely shoulders, was chosen Beach Queen of America. She comes from Philadelphia. Her curls 'have never been scissored, she jsaid. And now she has a secre-tary-working ten hours a 'day, 'tis said, answering offers of contracts 1 from movie producers, toothbrush concerns and hair tonic manufacturers. And there was Miss Catherine ,M. Campbell of Columbus, 0., who won the Atlantic City beauty crown for the last two years. iShe was "runner-up” this year. [And she’s never heard the barber's crn-u-uel clippers. Another fascinating beauty, whose long, flowing tresses attracted the judges to such a deI gree that she was awarded numerous cups and a place in the select few called for final consideration was Miss Faye Lamphier, pride of Santa Cruz, Calif. Her long hair frames a charming, inI tel factual countenance. | The same applies to Miss Margaret Leigh, “Miss Chicago,” Who i finished among the final five. Her dark curls stream gracefully down her shoulders. Bobs Destroy P« k ixonality And when you asked one of the Atlantic City beauty judges "Why?” he replied— That beauty of face and figure land personality are the main requisites pf the judges, but girls with bobs lack that essential individuality which was needed to make them stand out from the crowd—and the girls with long locks immediately drew the ad- | miring glances. j Bobbed hair is not passe by any 'means’ Some girls will cut their hair for years to come. And some married women. But the trend of fashion is tow’ard long hair again—with th® aid of "transformations” and the alluring bandeau and hair net until nature reasserts itself. “Every girl,” concluded a New York beauty specialist, "should , study her personality in the mirror. If she can make herself distinctive, strikingly attractive and vibrant with personality—by means of long hair—she is foolish to submit to the scissors every two weeks.” If you dpn’t think hair styles are changing, just notice the smart women in the shopping district one of these autumn afternoons! Long tresses are coming back, sure. o—. — SUED BY GUEST In New York, recently, a wellintentioned automobile owner picked up a pedestrian and gave him a ride, according to Public Service Management. An accident occurred, and the free rider was hurt. He sued his benefactor and recovered judgment for damages.

MASTER FORGERS' TRICKS EXPOSED The “Perfect Forgery” Always Has a Weak Spot That Leads to Penman’s Downfall. NATIONWIDE DRAGNET OUT Bankers Working Together to Catch Crooks Who Cause Losses of »150< 000.000 With Bad Checks Yearly. A bogus check scheme that was so original, sound and business-like that it became knbwn in detective circles as "the one perfect forgery." but finally. like all of them, led to its own inventor being trapped, is described by ’Reuben A. Lewis. Jr., in the American Bankers Association Journal. The article, which says forgeries cost the banks and business concerns at least $150,000,000 a year, deals with the ways of forgers and the relentless warfare being conducted against them by the bankers. “Crime does not pay." Mr. Lewie says. “Soon the law reaches out and seizes the misguided operator -who s -thinks he can get away with it. For .one of the peculiar thing? about the forger is that, while he may devise a ! clever scheme that brings a rich reJ turn on its initial trial, he cQnt'.pues to work It uhtil caught. "Fortunately, there appears to be a weak spot in the best laid scheme And just as soon as this weak spot is uncovered, it is broadcast to all the .banks in the land. So the banks, in ► formed as to the method of approach Vthat the forger will make, and the lit tie. peculiarities of the job. are on the i alert to nab him when he makes his i next reappearance. The King of Forgers ■ “The ‘master forger’ is William Hamilton Harkins, probably the most j dangerous operator known to the banking world. Several times in the toils of the law, Harkins has managed to escape. The daring ‘king* of the ■forgers made a confession that he hud defrauded banks of more than >300,'OOO during the years of his career. “His scheme follows a certain set pattern. The key to Harkins' plan ■ is obtaining a blank check from the .checkbook of a well known firm. Recently Harkins sauntered into the office of a granite dealer. He ordered a ; monument and tendered a check for a substantial part of the memorial. He ■ requested the proprietor of the store to permit him to dash off a letter to ,his folks at home. Seizing a propkieus moment. Harkins spotted his checkbook, noted the exact balance, tore out a sheaf of checks and disappeared. “Reproducing the proprietor’s signa■_ture, Harkins drew up a sizeable check. On the reverse side he inscribed his alias as the payee and then added after *O. K.’ the facsimile of the depositor’s signature. This acted as an identification indorsement, so jrhen he presented the check at the .bank It was readily cashed. The Weak Spot •The weak spot in Harkins’ scheme is the identification indorsement. If the teller, before cashing any check . bearing this alleged indorsement, telephoned to the depositor and checked up on Its issuance, the scheme would have short shrift." Banks throughout the country have been put on guard against Harkins .and his plan and it is believed he cannot operate long without again falling into the net. The scheme that was pronounced unbeatable was devised by a forger known as F. Mayer and Centered around the - certified check fraud. Mr. Lewis says, continuing: “F. Mayer would open accounts with four or five banks in a sizeable city. The largest account ran around <5,040. By kiting checks back and forth between the several banks, he would establish his identity with the tellers and become known as a man accustomed to deal in large figures. “After conducting these preliminaries for a few weeks. Mayer would go to the bank where he had his largest account and ask that a certified check be issued to him for substantially all of the money remaining to his credit. From the genuine check, he would .make four or five duplicates. "In turn, Mayer would visit the other bunks, where he had established small accounts. Inasmuch as he had cashed checks for some time. Mayer generally had little trouble in getting the banks to honor the certified .checks. If a teller took the precaution of calling the Issuing bank on the telephone to Inquire if it had made out such a certified check, he would gain confirmation. • The Forger Caught "But even the ’perfect’ forgery scheme cannot be worked with impunity. Mayer succeeded in defrauding Kansas City banks out of >27,000 and made his escape. A few months later he was walking down the streets of Los Angeles when a teller who had honored one of the bogus checks in the middle western city recognized him. Mayer took to his heels with the former teller In hot pursuit, and the criminal lost" The losses sustained through for jeries by banks may be mainly attributed to the failure of the tellers to’ observe the rules against cashing checks for strangers or allowing de posltors to draw on uncollected items “A relentless, rustained hunt is con ■ducted to apprehend the forgers. The new twists, the variations in the methods, the latest ruses used are fol lowed by the detectives. The moder of operation are broadcasted through out the country," the article declares ’/The American Bankers Association alone, through its Protective Division •spends more than >IOO.OOO a year to cheek depredations against banks."
