Remarkable Photo Spectacle "The Blue Bird"
Soon To Be Shown At The Regent Theater
Maeterlinck's THE E>LUB BIR.P
■AjIAETCBAFT Race
It affords us great pleasure to announce that the superb symbolical
photo-production extraordinary. "The Blue Bird." by the famous Belgian
poet. Maurice Maeterlinck, will be displayed at the Regent Theatre, May
9th, 10th and 11th.
The greatest number of actors—not supers—ever assembled in one
picture appear in "The Blue Bird." aggregating about 1.000. There are
many specialties in which prominent players of the stage and screen
take part. Hose Rolanda, the well-known dancer, leads a ballet in sym
bolical dance numbers.
In photographing the picture, 150.000 feet of negative was used. A
great deal of this was in multiple, triple and quarduple exposures, and it
is claimed that it sets a new record for this kind of work.
The story is a philosophical dissertation upon life, endowing all things
with life and speech, and giving a glimpse into the hereafter The dead
awaken, with messages for the living. And the t'nborn are shown im
patiently awaiting their advent upon tlw' earth.
While a production of surpassing beauty and exquisite'theme, the al
legory is plainly discernible, so that even a child can appreciate and en
joy the picture.—Adv.

ules O> operation and upkeep, &C
--• ' H. Barker, of the
■illh r Auto Company, Oldsmobile
dealers In this city.
"As a matter of ordinary economy.
every man who drives a car." con
tinued Mr. Marker, "should familiar-1
ize himself with at least the simpler]
rules of automobile maintenance.
The best way to do this is to get on,
speaking terms with the instruction
book that is supplied with each car.
"Tiie engineers that design any
automobile so to a ureal ileal of
pains in their experimental xvoik to
determine how a car can be made to
deliver Hie ver> best that is in it.
"For instance. Oldsmobile instruc
tion books state very clearly that
certain grades of oil should be used
in the transmission and rear axle.
Yet cases are constantly brought to
our attention in which greases have
keen used. These units are designed
to be lubricated by oil and it is an
injustice to the car to use anything
else. Anil so it goes. Every make of
car is different—has certain pecu-1
liarities of its own—that demand j
more than a general knowledge of
upkeep. The answer is the instruct-'
tion book.
"Furthermore, any man who is
careless in this direction does not
realize how much he is missing In
the wa> of smooth operation: or how
great chances he may be taking.
"But the main thing to consider
now is that it is almost criminal
v astcfulness to neglect to give a
the best treatment possible.
I. H.C. BOOKLETS
HELP FARMERS
Charts and Instructions Thai
Will Help Increase Pro
duction Sent Out
I
It is one thing to want prod flee
more food and another thing to !
know how. When, upon our en
trance into tl)c war. the food crisis :
promised to become even more seri
ous, and when, due to high prices
and to the desire to feed ourselves j
and help our allies,'the farmers ol
America wanted to increase the yield
of every acre, immediate prob- :
leni was how this might tie done.
In any emergency of this kind. ,
"those Instruments are best and most j
productive of results which have
already been perfected anil used.
The farm machine companies, deal- '
inK as they do exclusively with the
farmers, might be expected to have
means at their command of giving
the farmer information needed on
how to make his farm inimediatelj
more productive. The International
Harvester Company had already
been using several methods of
bringing proper information to the
farmer, which it was able to am
plify and increase at this time. n
oi those methods was a way the
company had perfected which would
enable one man in a schoolhouse. ;
or jn a lawn or grove or any other
meeting place, to p;iss information
on to an audience of farmers and
their families.
It was a long time ago that the!
Harvester Company conceived this
means of making easy the dissemi
nation of uselul information about
farming. It would be impossible
lor any company to employ enough .
men to go through the country and i
teach all the farmers, so the next j
best thing is to equip the leaders in
every farming community who de
sire to distribute information with
the means of taking Information
and distributing it themselves.
Lecture books containing the de
veloped outlines of talks on neces
sary farm subjects for the speakers,
and large lecture charts which can
be read by the audience, is the me
chanical equipment which the Har
vester Company devised for farm
ispeakers of all kinds. It developed
these charts, stands to hold theni up
and cases to protect them while they
are being shipped. All this equip
ment was woi'Ked out by the Agri
cultural Extension Department of
the Harvester Company and is man
ufactured in the International Har
vester Company works. The equip
ment is so well "designed that the
I'nited States Government also uses
it. buying it at,cost from the Har
vester Company.
After the cbmpany hud perfected
the equipment for speakers and lec
turers on farm subjects, it solved
the problem of distributing them for
use by permitting the people to or
-.uiize circuits over which the charts
might travel from one speaker or
school to another. These circuits
re usually organized on a county
basis, although in some cases a cir
cuit will overstep a county line.
This method of distribution was
put into effect in 1915, and by the
time the recent demand for infor
mation became acute, all available
charts were in use in the field. By
January. 1918, a greatly increased
demand became noticeable, and the
toiiLpany was obliged to make more
of the charts and put them into cir
culation to satisfy the demands of
the people for moie facts on pro
ductive, efficient agriculture.
This method of instructing the
people in how to produce tj'°re food
was perfected and running smoothly
at the time of our entrance into the
war. which enabled it to be used
immediately in the food production
crisis. The charts at present are
being used by agricultural leaders
and lecturers of all kinds, by county
superintendents of schools, and by
the higher institutions of learning.
Agricultural coleges and universities
in sixteen states are now directing
I. H. C. charts over circuits of their
own. and I. H. C. charts are travel
ing over circuits in every state in
the Union. I'hree large circuits are
working in Canada under the super
vision of .the Provincial Government
of Ontario. Twenty-four sets are
icing used in Russia by the lnter
! national Y. M. C. A., and several sets
I ate covering circuits in South Amer
ict. Three sets of charts were re
cently hauled sixty miles overland
by wagon in the state of Washington
that they might carry information
on safer and better farming and
greater food production to inland
communities far from the railroad.
These short course schools are
still in progress, and in every in
stance are held upon the request
and under the direction of some
local organization. So far twelve
schools have been held in Pennsyl
vana, eleven in Ohio, four in Mary
land and three in Massachusetts.
Si hools have been held also in Vir
ginia and West Virginia. There
have been a total of 191 sessions in
these schools, a session meaning
roughly one-half day of instruction,
'flie attendance has been approxi
mately Sti.OOO formers. The men
■v'-re giveil practical instruction in
how actually to produce more food
the coming season, and there were
special sessions for the women,
teaching them how to cook with lessj
j ugar and how to use potatoes to
ake the place of one-third of the
lout. The schools were strictly pa
triotic in 'liat they approached the
ood situation from both sides—pro
duction and saving.
