11 (Arkansas Democrat)
E Authorization for the pro
k duction of a motion picture his
i tory of the United States, hav
| in}? been given to the depart
► ment of education of Yale Uni
E: versify, and preparations start
red for the carrying out of this
► tremendous contract, the press
► {of the country has begun to
E i speculate on just what it will
► include, and how much it will
► cost.
► That it will be a very expen
\ sive undertaking, they all
► agree. At the same time, it is
► going to be a most valuable
E accoplishment, and values in a
l good many instances are based
► upon heavy expenses. It will
► take a couple of years, per
haps, adequately to produce
the screen story ot America.
One would have to start, per
haps with a story of what ex
isted here before Christopher
Columbus stuck the nose of his
three boats into the muddy
waters of San Salvador. Then
on through the spectacular cir
cumstances which are so close
ly joined to American develop
ment, the landing of the pil
grims,, the native ingenuity of
the pioneers, the war of the
revolution and other historical
events will have to be screened.
It will take the best techni
cal skill available to produce
the story of America in films.
Yet the tremendous value of
such a work can be understood
from a mere reading of what is
being planned. As an educa
tional work the story of the
United States in motion pic
tures will serve as no history
of the written page possibly
could serve, to stimulate the
imagination of youths. And
adults, too will find the inspir
ation that is necessary at times
to refresh their intellects and
renew their patriotic zeal
through this agency.
THE WORK HABIT
It is commonly remarked
that the great majority of the
men who have gone on to big
successs were bred in the coun
try. There is a reason for that.
From early life country boys
and girls are given tasks to
perform. The idle kid and
street loafer, is an unusual
character in a rural community.
Young folks get the habit of
work ingraided in them. Faith
ful, patient industry produces
results, and if the young folks
have it in them to rise, they
are not held back by the handi
cap of loafing habits that is ac
quired in city life.
Woman's Brainiest Age.
A woman’s brain machos iis great
est weight about the age of twenty
five, while in the case of a man, this
does not occur until ten yeans later.
This explains the a sort n that a
woman tit the age of twenty-one is in
n better position to give a matured
Judgment than n mar. at tbe me oga.
Drunk With Love.
“‘Oh, Amorous Dose’ by this impos
ing queen, was on. of th ■ best sots of
the evening.”—New York Times.

CHEWING
TOBACCO
Penn’s spells quality.
Why?
Because—
Penn’s is packed air
tight in the patented
new container — the
quality i3 sealed in.
So Penn’s is always fresh
— an entirely new idea for
chewing tobacco.
Have you ever really
chewed fresh tobacco?
Buy Penn's the next time.
Try it. Notice the fine con
dition.
And after that, use fresh
chewing tobacco — Penn’s.
