GOOD!
Reprinting an editorial squib from the Sumter, N. C.
daily, the Literary Digest or February 16, carried this
gem:
The largest piece cl ivory in the world has been found in Alaska
and it Is on its way i-AYssh.ngton without being elected.
In all fairness we must state the item is off on one
point on], —the ivory is correct—-for the delegate from
Alaska was elected by a very small majority. So
Delete the word (without) for we clearly recall the
shipment and the bill of lading was signed over on the 6th.
Even way back in North Carolina they recognize
solid ivory even when they don’t see it. Oh boy! That
surely was a pip.
Although mining and mineral resources are Alaska’s
chief claim upon the attention of the world, it is worthy
of sarcastic comment that the government still protects
the massive, destructive Kodiak bear which has practi
cally put an end to all mineral research on that island
wrhere gold in paying quantities has already been mined.
The North Pole region is said to have a warm tem
perature. This is one assertion we’d rather accept as a
fact than try to prove it.
Maybe all the tularemia talk is merely propaganda
put out by the Rabbit Protective Bureau which wishes
to save the poor little things for posterity—like the
Heinz bureaus are attempting (with fine success we must
admit) to do to Alaska.
How to enjoy your vacation: Take along your check

THEATER
ONE SHOW ONLY AT 8 O’CLOCK
THE GREAT
LIONEL BARRYMORE
Supported by Jacquelin Gadsdon, Polly Moran, Charles
Delaney, etc., in a moving picture of the famous stage play
THE THIRTEENTH HOUR
A melodrama of crooks and their master, a strange man
who dominates the MYSTERY HOUSE and yet is unknown
to the police except by reputation. A play full of weird ac
tion and unusual affects. Barrymore plays the part of a
professor with a criminal mind, interested in occult lore
and chemistry, controlling the low criminals by his know
ledge of their fears. A master mind who outwits the police
and preys upon his fellowmen.
In this picture are many brand new electrical effects that
add greatly to its spookiness.
