CONFIDENCE
When a client seeks the ser-
vices of a funeal director, he
must be able to do so with
perfect confidence. At such
times friendly, sympathetic help
and counsel are invaluable.
Our service is uniquely per-

desire to be of aid to the be-
reaved. __

terrace in the country or on the boulevard in town.
But you can’t count on soft lights to make you glam-
orous. And so Elizabeth Arden urges you to live up
to your cleanse-tone-soothe regime faithfully, so
that nature’s most brilliant lighting effects seem
designed expressly to point up your own breath-
taking perfection. And take no chances with this
new loveliness. The Sun-Pruf Cream will keep it as
safe as if it were in cellophane.

Mare Gives Birth
To Colt In Street
As Crowd Giggles
New York.—Nellie, a brown laun-
dry mare, was blessed with mother-
hood Monday in 111th street. The
event was much to the embarras-
ment of several hundred persons,
particularly Nellie’s driver, Morris
Germack.
Germack, a native New Yorker,
didn’t know what to do.
He had never seen Nellie until
he got her out of a livery stable to
draw his laundry wagon Monday
morning.
Patrolman Fred Winkleman, who
pushed his way through the crowd
of more than 200 to see what was
blocking traffic, was equally non-
plussed.
Andrew Duffer saved the day.
“Here,” he said, “I used to handle
horses in Europe. I know what
to do.”
Nellie whined appreciatively, as
Duffer tossed off his coat and rolled
up his sleeves. Policeman Winkle-
man held the crowd back and Driver
Germack just gasped.
It was all over in a jiffy. There
before the amazed throng stood a
new-born filly, a sorrel like her
mother with white markings on her
forehead and weighing about forty
pounds.
Together, mother and offspring j
were delivered to Aaron Lax’ Livery j
stable. Lax was as surprised as |
everyone else. Nellie got the rest
of the day off.
The death of Mrs. Pebe K. War-
ner a few days ago terminated a
career which in many ways was most
remarkable. The wife of a country
doctor who for many years had
made her home in a little Panhandle
town was by long odds the best
known Texas woman inside or out-
side her state. This bare statement
suggests the energy, sympathy, cour-
age and ability which Mrs. Warner
possessed.
Mrs. Warner’s great work, which
she pursued with tenacity and pur-
pose, was the lightening of the work
and the enlargement of the mental
and cultural horizon of the farm
woman. She was recognized, wher-
ever national leaders were in council,
as the chief American authority in
this field. She was indefatigable
in her campaign to convince the
nation of the human need for better-
ment of home conditions in the rural
areas. . She won her points, not by
aggressiveness, but by a gentleness
and reasonableness which set her
apart in the list of famous women
crusaders for a cause.
Mrs. Warner’s writings and her
addresses made her known to mil-
lions. Her counsel and her appeals
were addressed principally to the
women of the country, especially to
those organized for social and other
service under the banner of the
National Federation of Women’s
Clubs. She was prominent in the
work of the national council of this
organization, in those fields in which
her ability was universally recog-
nized.
Perhaps more than any other per-
son, Mrs. Warner may be described
as the founder of the Palo Duro
Canyon Park in the Panhandle. The
existence of that magnificent park
and playground today is one of the
lasting monuments to her memory.
Mrs. Warner was a “woman’s
woman.” She smashed no barriers,
overthrew no precedents. But with
intelligence she vitalized sympathy,
and in her understanding lead natur-
ally to action. Beloved by her
neighbors, she saw this neighbor-
hood expand until it took in the
whole nation. Hers is a figure which
Texas already enshrined in its pan-
theon of great spirits^—Fort Worth
Star-Telegram.
Loves of Star Basis
Of Screen Drama
Beverley Nichols, who wrote the
best-selling novel, “Evensong,” on
which was based the picture of that
name to be shown at the Olney
Theatre next Wednesday for one
day only, is reputed to have delved
into the most famous of all opera;
stars for the material on which he
based his story. Mr. Nichols, al-
though he has been pressed to reveal
the name of this celebrated diva,
has always refused to do so—and
many guesses have been made by
reviewers and critics in this regard,
the controversy which started when
the novel was first published being
renewed when Edward Knoblock’s
stage drama based on it was pro-
duced. Who was the counterpart of
Irela—the opera diva of the screen
version—in real life? Who was the \ NAME
scion of royal blood from which j p q
character of the mythical Archduke j
in the film story was drawn?
These are some of the questions j AjP
which undoubtedly will set the screen
fans guessing, when the picture is
given its first presentation in this
city.
