meme by entering the field Of prophecy
with the prediction that eventually
there will be political realignment
in this country that will result in the

that would certainly be more satisfac-
tory than the present three-party plan
which tends to make for minority rule.

The attendance Tuesday at the La
Sale at the dedication of the pipe
organ was more than gratifying to the
management and those present thor
oughly appreciated the artistic pro-
gram furnished by Prof. Allen Bogen
and Miss DoOley. The excellence of
the filmed version Of where the
Trail Divides as played by Robert
Edeson, the well known dramatic
star, was greatly appreciated.
TOday's feature is of equal import
ance from an artistic standpoint from
the fact that the leading role is taken
by Vivian Martin, one of the popular
favorites of the younger feminine
stars. Miss Martin has had q pro-
nOunced success in comedy and
dramatic roles and has appeared here
at the Oliver in such important parts
as Peter Pan" following Maude
Adams in the part), leading ingenue
with "Oticer $685." "Stop Thief" and
other recent successes. In the story
in which she will be seen on the
screen. THE Wishing Ring" she is
admirably fitted with a part that par
ticularly suits her elfish and vivacious
nature. The play is sweet and pure,
tells a romance of old England and
gets entirely away from all blood and
thunder. drama. A lively Joker COM
