EDISON THE WIZARD
Thomas A. Edison, the “wizard of Menlo Park,’ will
shortly celebrate his 82nd birthday, yet he appears to be
in full possession of the wonderful mental powers which
Iiave been the marvel of his contemporaries. It is worthy
of note that in his biography in “Who’s Who in America”
Pis educational career is confined to the simple statement
that he “received some instruction from his mother.”
No diplomas, no college degrees, no prizes for schol
arship in his early years. Edison, in the space of a single
lifetime, has changed the conditions under which men
live.
Mr. Edison has obtained patents for more than 1.000
Inventions, the two most epoch-making being the phono
graph and the incandescent- electric light bulb. His genius
has made possible great industries which have contribut
ed immeasurnblv to the iov and comfort of mankind. His
’nfbimv'va potion pr»n havUiv be appreciated

They say success breeds success. This is true in the
promotion of mining enterprises. If we can get Moose
Pass and Nuka Bay over the top, we will have that pop
ulation we long have been harping about.
A Juneau man ate a big mess of garlic in an unsuc
cessful attempt to prevent flu. Now he has flu, indiges
tion and halitosis.
REVOLT STIRS LONELY COUNTRY
Afghanistan, which has barred the outsider from
the days of its ancient inception, is stirring in an econom
ic awakening and revolts are troubling the country. Sur
rounded by countries of rme progressive ideas, it has
not a mile of railroad track or a span of telegraph wire.

CLERGYMEN SAID DO! S NOT ;
REPRESENT THEIR VIEWS j
OR OF ENGLISHMEN
LONDON, Jan.. 25, (jF)—Thirteen ]
bishops of the Church of England j
and other Protestant clergymen
have sianed -nd made public ;
statement divcrcing themselves I
from and administering a rebuke |
to a passage in Dean Inge’s book j
j “England” which draws unfavora- j
ble comment in the American Sen |
j ate.
Dean Inge’s words were: “If the
I British flag were hauled down on
I the American continent, is is more
j man possible that the nations of
Europe, enraged by the bloated
!prosperity and the airs of superior- ]
of iire man who won the war, |
would combine to danv “Shyloek’s” \
iceth and .Great Britain, after los
ing Canada, would no longer have
any. motion to help the nation
which in circumstances, supposed,
would have finally forfeited its
j friendship.”
Tli“ British clergymen say of
this passage—“It does not repre
sent our views and in our opinion
does not represent tire views of any
considerable number of English
men.”

whipping to the locals this morn

fact that the heavy artillery must
have swung into action is evidenc

McIntosh and Neville, were knock

TONIGHT—TWO SHOWS 7 AND 9
AGAIN WE HAVE A GREAT HIT IN
TWO ARABIAN KNIGHTS’
(A 9-reel feature)
The wonderful tale of comical adventure as two American
soldiers escape from a prison camp and make their way
south to Greece—thence by tramp-ship to Arabia, where
an Arab girl gets them into more trouble. After many
side-splitting incidents they fight their way out of the Arab
palace and get to the Consul.
NOT A WAR PICTURE
but a hilarious string of adventures of two soldiers who
were always fighting one another until a third enemy
showed up.
COMEDY DRAMA
of the best kind, that will keep you laughing all the time.
Said to be the equal of “What Price Glory’’ and “Rookies.”
THE TWO KNIGHTS ARE
WILLIAM BOYD
AND LOUIS WQLHEIM
SUPPORTED EY MARY ASTOR AND A BRLLIANT CAST
This picture runs the limit of situations—from German
soldiers and police dogs to Arab Harems—land and sea—
shell holes to Turkish beds. Not a dull or slow moment.
With it we will show an interesting Pa the Review.
