DUTCH DESTROY
FRESH TULiPS

Only Bulbs Are Sold and
Fortunes Are Made
From These.

 

 

HAARLEM, H o l l a n d (AP)-
Great barges piled high with fresh
tulips, mauve. yellow, white. red
and some black ones. pass through
the canal these days going seaward
to sink their cargoes. linough bios-
acnis to decorate a million homes
are thus deatrrg‘ed awry day.

Try to buy a hunch of tulips pick-
ed from a scarlet heap on the bank
four or live feet high and fifty feet
long. You will be refused. "Take
two or three for your lady" the gar-
dener will say. kindly refusing to
take your pocketbook in exchange.
It is a thing not done. The guild
does not permit it.

The agreement among the tulip
growers obsemed with the utmost
rigor is to soil huibs only. Florists
who buy the bulbs whether in Hoi-
land. England. Japan. or America
may sell the tulips hilt not the bulb

“The Big Parade” At
Regent For Three Days
Beginning Thursday

A picture offered to the public as
a. human doeument and not as a
super-spectacle, sans circus methods.
press-agent adjectives or helium——
comes to the Regent Thursday for a
three, day engagement. in Kin:
Vidor's “The Big Parade." from a
story by Laurence Staliings. The
title symbolizes the big parade of
humanity right up to the world
crisis. and the big parade coming
back. ‘

The coming of "The Big Parade"
is keenly awaited. first. because
Metro -Gcidwyn-Mayer gave Mr.
Stallings the opportunity of embody-
ing pictorially his knowledge and
tremendous feeling about the war
and. second. because that concern
put into the task. of production a
great enthusiasm and the utmost ro-
sourco in time. money. skill and
personnel. Following the author's
idea. it was made primarily as o
pimple and human story and n t as
a spectacular "movie“. Yet out
11,000 regulars from Fort Sam
Houston and the membership 0! sev-
eral American Legion posts took part
inthe battle scenes and the repre-
sentation of life behind the lines.
That there might be no iiaw in his~
tory. Brig-Gen. Paul B. Malone and
his stall at the tort directed the re-
ensction of the lighting. with Colonel
Harry Bishop as the emcer of the
day. General Malone and the other

 

Beliesu Wood and the Argonne.
commanded some of the same units
of the Second Division. U. 6. A»
which they had led through the Ar-
gonna.

The special work of the vets was
to give vraisemhianco to the scenes
of life in the billet. wherein the
author from his store or experience
had contributed many am‘using in-
cidonts. These were added to by the
boys' personal stories and reminis-
cences.

In the scenes with the Frenchies.
Renee Adel-ea. the featured player in
the production contributed from her
knowledge of peasant France. Miss
Adoreo was born in Lille. Through
the fortunes of the war her conti-
nental career as dancer and stage

escaped the German onset on Brus-
aels where she had been appearing:
a French refugee not altogether un.
like her charhcter of Melisande in
“The Big Parade". she was obliged
to seek new fortunes in London and
America.

flowers and their stems are not

appears that they rather injure the
soil than improve it. Besides. other
plants and vegetables are grown be-
