Furniture Men Return From Market Week Albert Graham, of the Graham Furniture Co., returned last evening from San Francisco where he attended Market Week, with its wonderful showings of autumn stocks of home furnishings. He was called to Los Angeles today but will return this evening. Ben Stroup, of the Stroup-Barnes Furniture company, also has been to market the past week, but, with Mrs. Stroup and daughter, Virginia, will take a little playtime to visit Lake Tahoe and Yosemite. He is not expected home for at least another week. Furniture and home making stocks for the coming season show a richness in coloring and pleasing materials not seen in recent seasons. The colors are a little deeper than last year, and markings a little less defined. Prices promise to be reasonable for the wonderful values.

WIRELESS POSSIBLE WITH EUROPE NEW YORK, July 25—Hello,London! Give me Dublin. And if Dublin is willing, it will soon be possible to call up a friend there by wireless telephone. Announcement has just been made of the installation on Long Island of a phone transmitter which, it is expected, will be the forerunner of regular telephone communication between the United States and Europe. As far back as 1915 the spoken word was thrown across the Atlantic to Paris, across the continent, and over the Pacific to Hawaii. But this was purely an experiment carried on to show what the possibilities were. Our entrance into the war hindered further work along this line. During the elapsed time great improvements have been made in the transmitting equipment necessary for this work. The electron tube—a vacuum tube—has been developed to the point where one unit will develop as much as 25 horsepower of radio energy. The present installation contemplates the use of four of these tubes. TO DEVELOP PEAT The Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro has granted a concession for the development of its extensive peat beds. C.

Extra Special $2.35 Good Stories, Big Screen Need, Says D. W. Griffith DRAMATIC SCENE FROM D.W. GRIFFITH'S "ORPHANS OF THE STORM" What does a girl need to succeed on the screen—brains or beauty? Think quickly before you answer, but probably you will answer wrong, but David Wark Griffith, master picture producer, and who ought to know, said in response to the question: "The answer is—both! Both are necessary. Of course, there are exceptions to every statement so general, but as a rule a girl must have some beauty and some brains." This seemed to be shading the direct interrogation, and Mr. Griffith was told that a single virtue must be selected. Meditating a minute, he faced the question fairly and said: "Beauty, in spite of all the debatings societies, remains the essential quality for a screen star" This appeared to clinch the proposition, but Mr. Griffith resumed: "Especially when animated with personality and intelligence!" Really; he simply repeated his original reply in different phraseology. Personally, it always has seemed easier to follow the abudetion and rescue than the progress of a plain and sensible girl through the same adventure, but it's just possible of course that Mr. Griffith knows more about motion pictures than casual observers. Anyway, there appeared much of real value in this miniature interview with him, and it was hinted that girls possessing screen yearnings and beauty would be stimulated by what he had said, but he blighted this hope, too, by saying: "Ah, but there are enough beautiful faces on the screen now. There's no lack of beauty." The more Mr. Griffith discussed the matter the less he left of the message wanted for delivery to the screen devotees of the world. So he was asked, outright, what he thought was the element most desired by movie producers today. Without a moment's hesitation, Mr. Griffith answered: "Genuinely good stories; new stories adaptable to the screen; original stories with a wide human appeal. The story is the thing! If you can get a good story, good in the broadest, deepest sense of the word, you will have no trouble finding players good enough to choose from. There are enough players now, more than enough. But stories? If there were a hunt for good stories now I'd be first in the field. Original stories for the screen are as scarce as original stories for the stage and the task of discovering and selecting them presents more difficulties on the screen." Mr. Griffith's latest great screen spectacle, "Orphans of the Storm," a film version of the stage play, "The Two Orphans," is now showing at the California theatre. This seemed to be shading the direct interrogation, and Mr. Griffith was told that a single virtue must be selected. Meditating a minute, he faced the question fairly and said: "Beauty, in spite of all the debating societies, remains the essential quality for a screen star" This appeared to clinch the proposition, but Mr. Griffith resumed; "Especially when animated with personality and intelligence!" Really, he simply repeated his original statement. WHITE LIGHTNING HARD ON WHITE MAN NEW YORK, July 25—Moonshine whisky, no matter how "pure" its ingredients, is unfit for human consumption. That is the finding of H. N. Schoberg, city bacteriologist, upon whom has fallen the duty of testing more than 1,000 specimens of illicit liquor since prohibition. In the processes of fermentation and distillation used to produce whisky or moonshine, Mr. Schoberg, says certain chemical reactions take place during which poisons which can only be eliminated by time, are formed. So harmful is the "white lightning" to the human system that physicians are receiving calls from persons daily whose ailments can be traced directly to the use of home made or bootleg drinks. DARK HEAVYWEIGHT RIDES BAGGAGE CAR LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 25—Perplexed trainmen finally hit upon the plan of loading somewhat buxom Lilly Murphy, a Shelby county negress, upon a truck and putting her in a baggage car, because she could not get through a passenger coach door when she made train connections here last night on her way to Evansville, Ind. Lilly is said to weigh 750 pounds and to have a waist measure of "'bout fine feet." ANY INSINUATION?

Or if it is not won twice by the same competitor, it will go permanently to the winner of the third year's competition.

Marion Candidate For Constable, Anaheim Township Resident 34 Years Primary Aug. 29 At Present Deputy Constable J. C. Joplin For Re-Election County Treasurer J. C. JOPLIN, CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECTION AS COUNTY TREASURER, is one of Orange county's pioneers, having settled here when this was a part of Los Angeles county in 1876, and he has always taken an active part in its upbuilding. A rancher and fruit grower for years, he studied conditions and experimented with different fruits and few men know more about or have helped more to exploit its wonderful productiveness than he. With a meager appropriation he gathered together an exhibit of the county's products which he took to the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. This exhibit attracted a lot of attention and Orange county's allotment of awards and prizes was large. Mr. Joplin also prepared the county's show for the St. Louis Exposition in 1904, with the same result in the matter of medals and prizes. Many of Joplin's friends over the county today first made his acquaintance when he was with the exhibits at one or the other of these expositions. He is rounding out his years as a useful citizen of the county which he helped to make into a little empire as county treasurer and his many friends say "let's keep With a meager appropriation he gathered together an exhibit of the county's products which he took to the Chicago World's Fair in 1893.
