Doug- las Jr. is the son of Douglas Sr.. so well known in motion pictures, but possibly better known to Canadians as the husband of Mary Pickford. The story of “Stephen Steps Out” is, in short: noucus runnmxs, m Ill “s'rnrnnn snps om" Stephen Harlow, J13. a fine, high- Spix-ited boy. quick to learn, but with the average distaste for study, iS a senior- in the Stillwater Prep. school for boys. which was endowed by his father. head of a big packing company. ' Popular Son of.

When the June examinations arrive. Stephen fails as usual, but all except one of his instructors give him the passing ‘fifty.’ Old Dr. Gilman. professor of ancient and modern history. conscientiously marks ‘five’ on Stephen’s paper in Turkish history. lowering his average below the limit required for graduation. day of This Week. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE Stephen hears ot Black’s dismissal of Gilman. after his arrival in Turkey. He keeps the cables hot with Wires of the outrage to his father. Stephen makes a friend of Harry Stetson, ex-newspaper report- er and press agent. Stetson prom- ises to help Stephen obtain for Dr. Gilman a_decoration from the Sultan known as the Star of the Order Of the Crescent. Through the interception of a telegram, vaythe finds himself a prisoner in the hands of a band of conspirators who also hold the Sultan’s son a captive. Attempting to communicate with Smythe Steph- en is also apprehended and confined to a cell, next to that of Prince Yussuf. Through a clever ruse Stephen. employing a series of football tactics, manages to, make his' escape. working his way into the Council Chambers of the Sultan where he manages to make himself understood. The Sultan promises him the Grand Cross of the Crescent, for Dr. Gilman. In America. through Stetson, eight hundred newspapers are printing daily encomiums of Dr. Henry Gilman. Harlow Sr. reads the notices, tears down to Stillwater and furiously orders Black to get Gilman back or quit. Gilman gladly accepts on_ a‘ summer \in the Maine woods. Stephen again tlunks his history exam. But meantime Harlow has cornered Stetson and forced from him the star of Stephen’s doi in Constantinop e. Harlow is delig ted, but shows a hard face to Stephen when the boy comes to announce that he has failed again. Harlow points to Dr. Gilman and the dec- oration gleaming on his worn frock coat. “How did you do it?"'asks Harlow. Stephen pretends to be puzzled and fully expects to be sent back to Turkey. But Harlow chuckles. “I’ll have to hand it. to HAVE A GUILTY CONSCIENCB (Burks Falls Arrow) While we are unalterably opposed to the enactment of any legislation that makes it less difficult for any- one to obtain intoxicating liquor we know of no reason why the forth- coming campaign should create ill feeling between individuals of oppos- ing views. The man who is in favor 0f total prohibition is just as good a citizen as the man who would prefer easy avenues for obtaining his supply of liquor and vice-versa.
