Phone 17 THIS WEEK By Arthur Brisbane wmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmrnmi Mir. Brisbane's editorials are pub lished as expressions of opinions >f the world's hiGhe3t>s*l?ucieU sditor and The Chronicle doe* not necessarily endorse all of bis views and oonelnstons. Professor Bell, a surgeon of au thority, director of the Liverpool Cancer Research, announces to the Toronto Academy of Medicine a new and successful treatment of cancer. Fifty cases, including many consider ed absolutely hopeless, have been cured by injections of a lead solution. One woman, with only a few weeks to live, \Vas cured, so this responsible surgeon says, of a rapidly growing "spindle-cell sarcoma." -. If it is true1 that a poisonous lead solution can attack vand destroy can cer tissues without destroying ?nor mal tissues, it means the saving of millions of lives, and, most important* it means avoiding agony, physical and mental, beyond calculation. As they proceed through the estate, shooting as they go* a traveling kitchen accompanies them. Servants carry their guns, load them, hand them up when the time comes to shoot. England, in spite of her unemploy ed, diminished trade, coal troubles, etc., goes along cheerfully. Good King George has gone to shoot with the Earl of Iveagh. /^Sometimes "six guns" in one day's shooting bring down as many as. 1,000 pheasants and 500 partridges. It is a most noble, glorious and in ? spiring sport, every bit as exciting as it Would be to enter the Earl of Iveagh's chicken yard, shooting right and left. , ,' In Britain it is called "sport." There is one advantage?it enables the traveling American to buy, all cooked, for four shillings or less, a pheasant that has cost the Earl of Ive&gh twenty shillings, merely for the' pleasure of killing it.* George Pullman tried to create a city. It was called "Pullman," but as a separate city it didn't work. Mr. Wood, once president of the American Woolen Company, decided that he would build a city and spent $21,000,000 on his model town, Shaw sheen, in Massachusetts. A new pres ident of the American Woolen Com pany, Andrew' G. Pierce, Jr., moves the company away and Shawsheen will become a deserted village. A town is like a language or a human being. It must start naturally and grow of its own power. You can't invent it or create it. It is said, in Job: "God thundreth m&rvelously with his voice; great things doeth He, which we cannot comprehend." To understand* this universe, the forces or the intelligence back of It, seems hopeless after you read Dr. Millikan's description of the new rays that roam through spiace. ' They Hre stronger than ultra-X-rays, 1,000 times greater in frequency, their, ionization is constant, day and night, any they are of the "10,000 volt variety." / When Volta, learned Italian, wroW his treatise "On the Attractive Force of Electric Fire," 150 years ago, little did he or Napoleon, who made him a Count and Senator of the kingdom of Italy, imagine what terrific forces ih nature would be called "volts" in Volta's honor. # The magnificent W. K.. Vanderbilt house in New York's Fifth avenue will soon be turned over to wreckers and torn down. Meanwhile for char ity, the crowd, to whom the name Vanderbilt means something, will pay to enter the house, wander about, contemplate the great dining room, two stories high "and Mrs. Vander bilt's room on the third floor with the bathroom cut from Italian marble." ?? All this, even the bathtub, must pass away. The only interesting thing about it is the fact that Benjamin F. Winter, who owns and is tearing down the house to build something suitable, came here a poor Jewish boy not long ago. He has Had more fun out of that Vanderbilt, who built it, ever had. Winter, who earns his money and power, enjoys both.

HONKST THKATKK MAN, If Picture Ih Not Worth Seeing, Ho Tells IIi? Patrons, Shenandpah, Iowa, Decj D. ?If a moving picture house owner thinks a picture is no good, he should tell his patrons so that they can stay {iway. Such is the attitude of C. J. Latta, owner of a local theatre, which he outlined today after ho had warned customers against seeing a picture booked at his playhouse for two days. He not only advertised in the newspa per his dislike of the Aim but posted in front of the theatre advising his patrons the picture \V8S "one of the Weakest" he had seen, ^ Latta said he took this action as u policy of honest advertising and would do it again if the occasion de manded. He explained that the pic* ture, a story of the sea, hud been well advertised, that all the advance \ information he had had about it had j been good, that it was based on a : novel that had been "one of the best sellers" of 1925, that the producers' epjoyed a good reputation but that the story was one of those that did not come up to expectations. It led the patrons up to a climax where they thought they 4were going to see something and then let them down, to a weak ending, he said,' declaring also that the "storm scenes were poor." His advertisement that followed after the first night's showing said that the theatre did not want to get money under false pretense, apolo-. gized to those who had already seen the film and warned those who had not that the picture was poor. Droie Truck in River. Dillon, Dec. 11.?A Vtvuck and the body *of'Joseph Barfield, white man of Mallory, between fifty and sixty years old, were found in. Little Pee Dee river at the site of abandoned Stafford's bridge about 10 o'clock this morning.- No particulars of the acci dent are knowft except that he drove the truck into the river at the point where the bridge used to be. McMillan's Furniture and Under taking Company, of Dillon, took charge of the body. Mr. Barfield was born in Marlboro county, was a good citizen. He is survived by his widow and five sons and five daughters. In terment will be at Ashview Cemetery, Marlboro county, tomorrow. It is be lieved that Mr. Barfield was lost in the swamp and didnt know where he was,going as he was driving in the night time, about 10 o'clock, being be lieved to be the h?ur of the unfortu nate accident.

Myers So. Broad St. Phone 44'Jt Meuse Editor. Wei have for a long time Kelt! i high regard for the political and per sonal courage of Senator Cole L. Ulease. Time and time again he has passed through ordeals that would have caused the average man to sink, never to rise again. Hut the senator has eome through and this September gone two years ago he passed through a trial that was terrible and turbu lent, but which perched him in a seat in the United States senate. Hut we think the senator has just started upon the greatest trial in all his life. He has announced the be ginning of a newspaper to be cabled "Blease's Weekly." It i* to be pub lished in Anderson and he is to be editor and "angel." For the benefit of those who know not, we advise that the word "angel" in nowspaper parlance means the man who pays the bills?the "ghost" who walks every Saturday night among those who have toiled during the week getting out the paper. The "angel" is the most important man connected with any newspaper. Senator Blcase will be it while his newspaper lasts whether he gets to be an angel in some other vale or not. We hope he will. And since Mr. Hlcase is always "good Copy" it would not be neces sary to buy space. Still, there's no teacher like expe rience.?Yorkville Enquirer. , There was little improvement in Western Europe's agriculture from the fall of the Roman Empire to the beginning of the nineteenth century, Wear a Pair of Flexoaks The Perfect Leather Shoe Sole *?
