J As provider for 150 widows and
father to 3oO orphans, Charles Page, (
of Tulsa, Okla., is realizing here the 1
dream of a life that matches fiction? s
* a life with a moral woven in.
The story of his rise from nothing c
to millions is really the story of a
vow made in boyhood, broken in '
youth and fulfilled in maturity. It
is the story of success and failure alternating.
Charles Page's father died when
the boy was 10, and most of the family's
property went to pay the doctor
bill.
As the lad struggled for a living
in a little Wisconsin village he prom-j
lsed himself that once he attained
wealth he would help others in the
circumstances he suffered then.
.uaue a rvrvuiic.
After years of adversity he ruade
his way to the Northwest and took
up the lumber business.
"0ne morning I awakened and realized
I was no longer poor,'' he said,
"I knew I had reached the point at
which I had promised myself I would
_ start helping others. And I knew ij
> was not doing it."
The vow forgotten Charles Page'
went ahead making money. A few!
months passed and a deal turned
wrong. He went "broke." He looked
upon the wreckage of his fortune,
* and once more vowed he would help
others if he were able?again.
His second success came after he
had been through the Cripple Creek
gold rush and had come to Oklahoma
and the oil fields.
Builds Orphans' Home.
On the present site of Sand Springs,
seven miles from here, he had a tent
pitched. He sent a family of Beveral
orphaned children there and hired a
man to care for them. From that time
on the Sand Springs Orphan's Home
has grown.
The Page foundation is not an
"asylum." It is truly a home. <jnu-|i
dren taken there consider it such. !
Some of them marry from it. Boys
are given a start in business. Scores !
find the work they prefer in the various
Page enterprises.
A number of widows with families
have been given cottages and are provided
with food, clothing and fuel.?

RICH AMERICANS VISITING
PARIS USELESS WASTERS
Paris, Sept. 12.?"Olive Thomas
certainly believed she was acting for
a film on the fateful morr'ng she
mistakenly partook of the poison for
a sleeping potion."
While the body of the beautiful
American movie star rests in the
Paris morgue for tomorrow's autopsy |
which the judicial authorities ordered
\ yesterday in order to ascertain exactly
under what circumstances she
swallowed mercurial tablets, all Paris
continues to discuss the untimely
death of Jack Pickford's wife and the
above statament was made by Princess
IHvtcr nf
Avaresco, cuuusiu ui mug ? .
Rumania, in an exclusive interview
with Universal Service, The prin-j
cess is the famous authority on femi-j
nine psychology. She also is a historian
and was an official lecturer
on "contemporary history" with the
American troop in the war.
Cannot View Remains
Meanwhile no one was allowed to
view or touch the remains of the j
beautiful movie star with the exception
of sworn doctors and poison; (
experts.
"The case of Olive Thomas,*' said
Princess Acaresco, "is the most interesting
of its kind in many years.
After a careful study of the known
circumstances, I do not hesitate to
state my belief that, under the hyperexcitement
incident to a night's sojourn
amidst Parisian dancing
scenes, Olive entirely lost her sense
of realty on that fatal morning.
"The barrier between her real personality
and her theatrical one had
completely disappeared. She certainly
believed she was acting for a film.
"It was only the unbearable burning
or the poisoning drug which
startled her back to real life and
caused her to call for help.
"Generally speaking," said the princess
who has a wide acuaintancel
Among Americans, "I am vastly disappointed
in the Americans visiting
Paris since the war. The ordinary
doughboy, whose life I shared for
months, unquestionably was vastly
superior to the present crowd of
sightseers.
Rich Americans Useless Wasters
"The American fighting man was 1
o ?toan nnriirht hov. Even the least
educated among them had ideals,
while the great majority of the present
rich American visitors are useless
wasters, eager only to indulge in
the sights and sensations which gold
can buy in Paris while they disregard
the beautiful side of the French capital.
"The atmosphere of Paris today is
deteriorated by American pleasure
seekers and is decidedly dangerous
for American girls."
"Paris undoubtedly 1b a great dander
to young and inexperienced girls
who have not developed their will
power,'' said Gertrude Dingman, director
of the work of the Young Women's
Christian Association in
France.
"Many American girls," she added
are lured by the reputed glamor of
' Parisian pleasure resorts. They love
their natural restraint and moral
if stamina upon arriving here."
Prohibition in the United States
was blamed for the unrestrained actions
of Americans in Paris by Cortland
Bishop, former president of the
? Aero club of America and one of the
best known Americans in Paris.
"A dry America," he said, "is responsible
for the orgies of certain
Americans in Paris. Unable to obtain
champagne openly in America
they indulge violently as soon as they
leave American ports.
"If prohibition continues in the
United States I predict that twentyfive
per cent of the Americans visiting
Europe will be physical wrecks
ere a month's stay.
Taking Lawyer's Advice.
A man in a western town was hurt i
n a railroad accident, and after be- '
ng confined to his home for several J
veeks he appeared on the streets
valking with the aid of crutches. f
"Hello, old fellow," greeted an ac- i
liiamtance, rushing up to shake his:
land. "I am certainly glad to see you,
iround again."
"Thanks," responded the injured
>ne. "I am glad to be around again."
