The Fifteenth Decen- wfal Census Act, approved June 18, 1929, directed the Census Bureau to make this farm enumeration in 1955. The reports will be for the calendar year 1934. The accuracy of the information procured will be directly reflected jri the statistical work carried on, Jn the farmers behalf. Intelligent business methods must be applied m the successful operation of farms m this day and age and these methods will fail unless farmers and farm organizations have ac curate knowledge of actual condi tions in various sections of the country. For example, it is use less to increase the production of any crop if the figures show there ids overproduction of that crop. Every farmer and rancher should write immediately to the Bureau of Sfee Census, Washington, D. C., for cue of the sample schedules so that they will have an opportunity to jjftudy the questions and be prepar ed to give full and accurate infor mation when the enumerator calls 9f their home in January.

C. celebrated “episode of the ants.” Bill gets the blame as well as the thrashing. This piece of injustice on his father’s part is the first exhibition Bill has had of a father’s unfairness. Suffering from hurt pride, Bill is alone in his room when Horace comes and tells him the truth *of his relationship with Peck. As a result, Bill runs away from home. Before the film is ended, how ever, he has learned that his fa ther could be no more devoted, were he his own flesh and blood. The story is said to reach its climax on a note of profound human un derstanding and with high-voltage dramatic effect. Jackie's Role According to advance accounts, Jackie Cooper has the finest role of his screen jpareer as young Billy Peck.

Cline directed and Sol Lesser produced the film for Fox release. Story Of Romance That Shook World In ‘Cleopatra’ Film Romance written in words of fire deep in the hearts of the lovers of the world! That’s one of the descriptive phrases used to herald the coming of Cecil B. DeMille’s newest Para mount production, “Cleopatra,” which will run at the Hollywood Theatre Monday and Tuesday, De cember 10th and 11th. The film, a modern screen treat ment of one of the world’s greatest love stories, has Claudette Colbert. Warren William and Henry Wilcox- on in the principal parts. Wilcoxon Is the young Englishman DeMille brought to Hollywood for the role of Marc Antony, the noble Roman who gave up his life for love of the Egyptian queen while Empires tot tered about him. Produced by Mr. DeMille and di rected by him, the picture has a notable supporting cast including Ian Keith, Joseph Schildkraut, C. Aubrey Smith, Gertrude Michael, Irving Pichel, Robert Warwick, Wil liam Farnum, Edwin Maxwell and Harry Beresford. Rome and Egypt live again in all their monumental splendor, serving here as a background for the deathless love story that destroyed mighty empires and wrote the most exciting pages of history. Bartlett Cormack, noted short story writer, did the screen adapta tion from the story by Waldenmar Young and Vincent Lawrence : WANT ADV.
