ADJUSTMENTS.
At IN. Grand.


The fact that Sir Charles L. Young's
which was for long time the stage
sensation OF two continents, has been
converted to motion pictures, would in
itself be an important screen event.
But when it is added that this latest
production of the Famous Players
Film Company presents the celebrated
legitimate star, John Mason, in his
first film characterization, the subject
becomes one OF tremendous and popu-
lar interest.
This f1ve-part photoplay is the latest
release on the Paramount program and
the chief attraction at the Grand IT,
night. The depth of its appeal and its
forceful dramatic development have
made this play one of the strongest
stage documents of the day, and these
qualities are we'll preserved on the
screen. hssSs5sa
Although John Mason 81 initial. ap-
pearance On the screen Is Of enough

FALSE ALARM COMES
FROM CEREAL WORKS
Police Investigating Fire Alarm Turn
ed in on GameWeil System
This Morning.

Investigation Of a false alarm sent
In to the fire department from the
cereal works at 9 o'clock this morning
was started by the police today. The
alarm was turned in at one OF the
Gamewen alarm boxes, Of which there
are number at tho cereal works,
connected with all three fire depart
ment stations. In order to send in an
alarm from one Of these boxes, 1t is
necessary to break small glass in the
door of the box before the operating
key can be turned.
An instance of the unnecessary dan
gers to which the men and equipment
Of the Sixth street department are
subjected in answering these false
alarms was found this morning when
the big automobile truck was being
driven down South Fifth street to-
ward the cereal works and collision
with two heavy wagons was narrowly
averted The fact that the machine
was being driven slower than 1t will
when the drivers have become more
proficient was largely responsible for
the accident being avoided.
The firemen are perfectly willing to
undergo the dangers Of an accident
in answering an alarm where there
is fire. but there arc none Of them
who desire to be subjected to this
risk in answering false alarms sent in
by people who have no other pur-
rose than the desire to see the auto
mobile truck in action.

SOAP Is BAD
FOR THE HAIR

Soap should be used very sparing-
", if at all, if you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsiied cocoanut Oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), is
cheaper and getter than soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. 1t makes an abund
ance of rich, creamy lather, which
rinses out easily, removing every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves the scalp
soft, and the hair fine and silky,
bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, and a few ounces
will supply every member of the
family for months. /,

promptly to the minute as scheduled
and friends Of the club who are plan.
ming to take the trip tomorrow should
be on the boat before 2 o'clock.
While great many Of the plans for
a good time on the excursion are
based on fair weather, the trip will be
made rain or shine and special enter
tainment on the boat will be made to
compensate for disappointment due to
postponed athletic events. The Maui
VOC ball park, however, is very sandy
and good game could be played i'm
after hard rain.
Owing to the large number of tick
cts that have been already Sold,
friends Of the club are reminded that
they should either bring basket
lunches or plan to eat supper at the
lunch counter on the boat.
Artists have been secured from st.
Louis and other cities to fill every
moment Of the time on the boat with
pleasure, driving away dull care, and
the club hopes to make the day one
of greatest enjoyment for its friends
and guests.
Passing through the mammoth lock
the fair ship Sidney will sail out upon
the beautiful waters Of Lake Cooper
on the way to Nauvoo. Many promi-
nent people from nearby cities will be
on the boat as guests Of the club.

the day. The power house bunch
have been practicing daily, as have
the Electric boys and both are watch
ing the silver loving cup in Renaud's
window with jealous eyes. Both teams
are inspired with a firm determine
ton, the power houes to keep posses
sion of the cup and the Electrics to
make 1t change hands. The expert
umpires, Mr. Crimmins and Mr. Steb-
bins have been secured to off1ciate at
the game.
Before and after the ball game
there will be an extensive athletic
carnival Of sports and races. One Of
the events most eagerly looked for
ward to is the tug Of war" between
Devine's Grizzlies and Isler's
Giants" This contest is to settle
long disputed claim as to whether the
transmission line pole and tower
artists" or the power house water
wheel experts are the better men. 1t
has been said that 1t will be exceeding
ly unfortunate for member Of the
losing team to appear in public after
the contest.
In addition to the tug Of war" a
special feature of the day Is the pole
climbing contest, open to linemen Of
the Stone & Webster companies
whose employees form the club. Be-
sides the baseball game, tug Of war
and pole climbing contest, there are
a number of other athletic features Of
interest. The program in full is list
ed in detail as follows:
