Will A dress Follow Route of Blonde Predecessors? * *. • ■ • . * \ Reports That Patricia Detering Is Hollywood i Bound Recall Others Who Have Trod Path to Fame as Leading Ladies Opposite Charlie Chaplin. I VIRGINIA CwEPRIW/ ! Lita / , Grey / u J& -3E Patricia Detering Mjldrgd Harris' (By Alice Aldcn.) New York. Mar.—From the murky depths of obscurity to the starlit heights of fame, then back to indif ference again. That seems to be the loute traveled by the leading 'atliCs ' ho lay opposite Charlie Chaplin Maybe the movie star wants it that, way, no one seems to really know. But with the news of his discovery of a new beautiful blonde who is evl c’ently destined for fame, there is renewed speculation about me Chaphn blondes. Really the blondes should elect Chaplin their patron saint for has consistently employed a golden haired, slender siren for the ‘ heart interest’’ In his moives. The latest find is Patricia Detering, a l vcly English girl of part Austrian ances try. She is professionally known as Sari Maritza and was. constantly seen with the comedian durine- hi' recent visit to London. They danced together at the supper given by Chaplin after the premiere of ‘Cl-.y Lights” and their exhibition tango was one of the highlights of the ev ening. So interested was Chaplin that It didn’t surprise anybody when the exotic blonde announced that she would shortly leave for Hoi iywood. It is thought likely that she will be the next Chaplin ieaclu.g lady, her first real movie job, Jur-t like the blondes who have pi eced** t her, let's hope though, that she win have better luck than her predeces sors.

Yourig exeremely beautiful she was unknown until she a Ur act ed Chaplin’s attention. The story ol their subsequent, marriage and di vorce is well known. Mildred mar ried again, that marriage also -.vent on the rocks. And now. the iomu r star is glad to play small bits and extra parts in order to eke out art existence. Her life has been jpore thrilling than any screen role. Rather different is the story of a way analagous is the story of Lila Grey, the one exception to the blonde tradition for Lita is of tbo Spanish type, dark and^ langorous. She married Chaplin and as his g;fl bride achieved world wide fame. Their marriage did not "take'' de spite the two children that marked their union. And now Lita is playing vaudeville engagements, with little hope of making a success in Holly • wood. She has youth, beauty and pleasant singing voice, but it seems that celluloid honors are not for her The current Chaplin picture ‘ City Lights" is also distinguished by a leading woman who got her first chance appearing opposite Chaplin. She is blonde Virginia Cherrill, a Chicago girl, who met Chaplin at a social function. Struck with her flaxeu beauty, he persuaded net to take a screen test witli the result that she was signed bv him at once Her work has earned much praise, but despite this, rumors of a new Chaplin leading lady are current,. And so they come and go on the Chaplin lot. ADM IN ISfHATOKS NOTICE. Having tills day Qualified as adminis trator oi the estate of Edessie McSwain ate ot Cleveland county.

Surgeon Adds To Three “T’s” Appendix Should Hr Categories With Teeth, Tonsils And Tummy, Doctor Says. Atlanta, Ga.—The appendix de serves to be added to the "three T's”—teeth, tonsils and tummy”— as the source of our aches and pains. Dr. Hubert A. Royster, Raleigh, surgeon, who discussed the appen dix as a source and receptacle for infection befofe the Southeastern Surgical congress here, expressed the opinion that the appendix is the ‘‘abdominal tonsil,” as. far as being a catch-all for germs is concerned. “The teeth and the tonsils often are indicted because they are visi ble,” said the surgeon. “Because the appendix is covered up we are lia ble to forget about it.” Disorders of the kidneys, liver, stomach and central nervous system often may be traced to micro-or ganisms incubated in the appendix and then sent cruising through the blood stream, Dr. Royster said.

Ward's Always Sells for Less Dear Mr. Firestone: Above, we reproduce part of one of the many advert!— ments appearing throughout the country, in which Firestone tires are compared with "a mail order” tire... Montgomery Ward SC Co. is the oldest mail order house in America. So when you say "mail order,” many people naturally think first of Montgomery Ward 9C Co. But — the specifications of the "mail order” tire hated la Firestone advertising fall far short of the specifications of Montgomery Ward St Co. tires . . . You have also stated In your advertising that "a mail order tire is made by eome unknown manufacturer . . .” Ward’s tires are made by one of the largest companies in America ... a company, in fact, that la larger than your own company, Mr. Firestone . . . Furthermore, your advertising ftys "Compare prices.” You compare Firestone prices with "mail order” prices. Montgomery Ward St Co. statea emphatically that your advertising does NOT make a correct comparison between Ward tires and yours, in either quality or price. JSut the table at the left DOES. The Firestone advertising lists three grades of tires—-Courier, Oldfield and Super-Heavy Anchor. Your Courier, Mr. Firestone, is what is known in the trade as a "third line" tire. Montgomery Ward 0C Co. does not sell a "third line" tire. Your Oldfield is what is known as a "second line" tire—it compares in quality with our TRAIL BLAZER. Your Super-Heavy Anchor is also a "second line” tires—but is a quality which we do not sell . . . OUR BEST TIRE IS OUR RIVERSIDE. The Firestone advertising does not list a tire equal in quality to our Riverside— in the table at the left however, we list Firestone tires that are equal in quality to our Riversides and show how the prices compare. In view of these facts, Mr. Firestone, we wsk that in the future you flat* whose mail order tire you are talking about. MONTGOMERY WARD & GO. Mr. Auto Owner Quality for quality, there are up better tires aides and Trail Blaaers. Furthermore, they are squareet tire guarantee ever written. And they other tire, of equal quality. Step into Ward’s store COMPARE before you buy. Ward’s River by the faire-t, for LESS than see for yourself. Montgomery Ward & Co. 139-141 S. LaFAYETTE ST. ONE 167 Shelby. N. C.
