JOHN BARRYMORE
IN 'THE DICTATOR"

John Barrymore. the unrivalied
comedy star of the Famous Players
Film Co., returns to the screen In a
clever comedy-farce-flm version OF
"The Dictator" by Richard Harding
Davis, the Paramount release at the
Ely theater tonight.
1t Is not too much to say that not
since his memorable triumph In The
Man from Mexico" has Mr.. Barry
more found so violating a suit of
dramatic clothes and SO good a We
hicle for his characteristic quaintness
Of humor.
The comedy is constant. breezy, en-
tertaining and we'll acted by an ex-
~ceptionally competent company. The
action is snappy and there is scarcely
an Intellectual interval throughout

SPRING OPENING DAY
AT CAMPTON's STORE

With the advent of spring, Camp
tons opening of the seasons fashions
was of unusual interest to the ladies
of the district and the store was
thronged with interested patrons all
through the day. The ladies' fur
nishing department on the third floor
was especially attractive with its ar
tistic arch of welcome and its wealth
of beautiful flowers which are always
a delight to womankind. The splen-
did display of goods throughout the
store was a credit to the management
and the heads of the different depart
ments, and merited the liberal pat
ronage accorded. Many compliments
were extended Mr.. B. R. Firman, who
directed the decorations and display
arrangements of the store, for the
manne in which he had prepared a
reception for ladies of the district.
The window display was an incen-
tive to do your shopping early and
many followed this inclination and
the early hours of the morning found
the ladies satisfying the desire to
discard the old for the new and be-
come a bird of fashion.

The Great White Way.

The Ely theatre has been putting
on some splendid features recently,
not only from the amusement stand
point but also educational and tend
ing to show the various phases OF
life unknown to the majority of peo-
pie who are more or less occupied
with the affairs of business and home.
One of these was shown last week in
a Pathe feature entitled New York.,
In which the motto, One half the
world doesn't know how the other
half lives" was srikingly proven.
The general nature of the play can be
imagined from the little verse which
was thrown on the screen as an in
PRODUCTION to the play Immediately
following a night view of city, and
which is reproduced on page seven of
this issue.

FIRST NATIONAL OFFERS
OPPORTUNITY TO INVESTORS

The First National Bank of Ely
has opened a new department and
the same will be noted in the adver-
Using columns of this issue. High
class bonds and farm mortgages will
be made a special feature of the
banks business in future. This class
of securities is recognized the world
over as being among the best. The
small investor. however, has been
unable to reach them In the past, and
this has been found to be true par
ticularly in small communities. They
will hereafter be sold by the First
National on the installment plan and
a low rate OF interest will be charged
on deferred payments. This will I'M
doubtedly appeal to the many wage
in the Ely district who are
DESTROYS of investing their earnings
where they will bring in some return
and the wage Garner can in this way
make his little surplus money work
for him each month. This new
branch will perhaps involve the ex-
penditure of more time and money
on the part of the bank than will be
derived in for some time,
but the institution is entitled to
credit for its enterprise and the popu-
lar department will no doubt In time
prove a money maker for the bank
as we'll as for the investor.

BY contrast, Ruby Hoffman, as Sc
nora Juanita, the passionate damsel
who claims the Dictator's love,
proves herself an artistic remark
able for her effectiveness. Robert
Broderiek makes a strong figure as
Colonel Bowie. an adventurer seeking
a United States Consulate. Walter
Craven is sufficiently fierce as Gen
eral Campos. the temporary presi-
dent of the republic.

Consul Arita to Help Ale
viate Matters -

ITO allow present conditions to ex,
list any longer is a distinct menace to
the integrity of our homes: and a Sc,
rious reflection on the good names
Of both Americans and Japanese In
HRwaii," declares petition presented
10 Consul II. Arita Of Japan by the
Improved Baths and Sanitary Asso-
citation, after an investigation of con.
ditions on the big plantations on the
island of Hawaii.
The petition was drawn up after an
Investigation made by DR.. G. Negoro
Of Honolulu and s. Full of Hilo. and
IS signed by hundreds Of japanese
plantation laborers, whose quarters
we're visited. The petition to Consul
Arita states, in part:
I'VE have the honor to address
these presents to you with the view
Of enlisting your cooperation in, our
andeavor to improve the deplorable
conditions of the comfort stations, and
baths provided for Japanese laborer7
by the sugar plantations Of Hawaii
"Our association at Hilo has insist
ed that the sexes should be strict.
separated in the use of baths and
comfort stations, and conditions al
Hilo have been greatly bettered, but
we regret to say that there has been
no change on the outlying sugar plan
tations. sFsy s.sH--. 49,
"The promiscuous use by both sexes
at the same time OF the same baths.
and the unpartitioned comfort stations
where both sexes resort are disgrace
to the community and to the planta.
tons which tolerate such conditions
They are absolutely destructive Of the
good customs and Christian morals OF
the laborers. H.
"Our home land does not allow such
a state of things to exist for mo.
ment, Police regulations in these re.
spects are particularly strict, and the
enforcement thereof is very severe
Yet these deplorable conditions exist
in Hawaii, which boasts superior
civilization to that of our homeland. :
The petition closes with the plea
that Consul Arita himself take the
matter up with the plantation com
panies. 9

Paln,y Days For

Clerks Office viii Be Con-
Quoted Over Counter

Lo, the old order changeth. Hence
forth, reporters. attorneys and other
persons. with the exception Of Off
Gals. will be barred from the inner
sanctums OF the federal court clerks
office.
Thus has Clerk George R. Clark
ruled, and. the ruling must be obeyed.
1t is final. The court reporters, per-
haps, will suffer the most. From now
on the days news will be handed out
across the counter. The scribes will
not be allowed to pass through the lit.
tie swinging gate, seat themselves
comfortably in chairs in the clerks
office and then demand. We'll. what's
doing today"
In the olden days, the clerks office
was pretty good "loafing place" for
the Fourth Estaters. They enjoyed
the clerks smoking mixtures, books
and magazines. Many an unoffending
coupon was filched from packages of
Turkish blend" and the ice water
was above reproach.
Auwe! Many an assignment was
covered by means of the telephone in
the clerks office. In the days of one
former clerk an exceptionally fine
brand of Havanas was available to
what he delighted in calling The
Press" But now these luxuries and
privileges have been cut off. The
clerks must not be interfered with in
their work, one report has it, and here
after business will be transacted only
over the counter.
The same ruling applies to attor-
neys, office seekers and others. Re
porters, however, may be allowed to
go inside in case they wish to make
a. copy of document. But the. palmy
days of pounding out story on the
office. typewriters are over. The ma
chimes, with Bill Rosa's rubber band
attachment, are tabu.
Thus has the old order of things
changed AS one man once put 1t,
