NANILA'S CITY ELECTION WILL
 BE INTERESTING
Excitement Among Lethargic FihpinOS and Contests
 Are Promised.

ManfIas F. l., April 25.-The muni- cipaI government of Manila will un- dergo a radical change as result of the city elections which will be held June 6, interest in which has already developed so far that there are sev- euty-five candidates for the ten posi- tions of members of the mun1c1pa1 board, which is to be elected. while heretofore the general mass of the Filipino people have paid little heed to- the elections. each year has shown a growing interest, and the coming Io- cal contest will be one of the most exciting political campaigns that the city has known since the American occupation.
 The new city charter passed by the legislature at it's last session calls for the election of a municipal board of ten members. Heretofore this board which has consisted of six memb has had only two direct representa- tives of the people, the other mem bers having been the aIcaIde or ma yor, appointed by the governor -gener- al, two other members appointed by the chief executive and the city en- gineer as a member ex-officio. The new charter requires the election of all members, not by districts. but by the city at large. In addition to the board, but not a member of it, there will be an alcalle, appointed by the governor general, and his office will closely resemble that of the mayor of the average American city.
 Some of the numerous candidates for places on the board are men who have mingled in the political game here since the first days of American occupation, but there are many new corners, with new ideas and ideals of political service. In some respects the election will mark a battle be- tween the old and the new, a struggl between the generation which hf ruled Filipino politics for many year and the generation wnfcn has bare come to maturity, the youth of th country

rrue IdeaI of Aristoeraey.

It is the people who have the wrong ideal who are trying to build up an aristoracy of wealtlf instead of an aristocracy of integrity. It is the peo- pie with the wrong ideal who are ashamed of work and working ancesl tors. It. is the people who have the wrong ideal who are substituting gilt ter and show for the stately and sim pie standard of your grandfather and mine. It is the people who have the wrong ideal who insist upon putting on'' and who are thus robbing friend ship of it's grace and hospitality of it's meaning. Virginia Blair in Good Housekeeping.

POLI'S

Fine dramatic action. an intensely interesting story, and beautiful pho- tography taken in the Panama. Canal zone stamps the h1nnization Of Rex BeacIass s%The Ne'er-Do-We11's as the biggest thing in motion pictures since 'eThe Birth of a Nation'' Packed houses witnessed the big 10-reel spectacle at Po1fs yesterday, and 1t was apparent that the photodrama was a distinct revelation.
 Following very closely Rex Beach's famous story Of the same name, the film is action action, action through out. The story is well known. How the football player hero awakes after celebration of a grfdiron victory, to Ind himself on shipboard. penniIess; how he becomes ensnared alike by the southern beauty Chiquita. and the influential female diplomatic agent; how he plays his part in the building of the Panama canal; and the final conquest of true love form a most in terestfng story that is presented with real dramatic worth.
 The Keynote of the whole produc- ton is action, and it comes swift and fast. There are dozens Of scenes that are fairly breath taking. A most real istic fist fight and an orninous looking mob scene stand out as especial bits of photographic genius. The views along the canal. showing the Gatun Dam. Cu1ebra cut, the old Spanish prison are unusually interesting.
 Practically the entire cast of sHThe Spoilers another famous Rex Beach film, is in The Ne 'er-do-W -WeIl.'' wheeler Oakman is seen in the title z0Ie, and Kathryn Williams has the part of Mrs. Cortland. the secret dipIo- natic agent Norma Nichols as Chi quita, the Spanish maiden, gives a most interesting portrayal of the part, and other characters are most ade- quate1y cared for.
 arhe Ne'er-Do-We1l" is master niece of photodrana and should be seen by every one.
 Tn addition there is an excellent program of vaudevffIe, one of the big features of which is the Egyptian musical fantasie, sfThe Garden of Love-" presented in two brilliant scenes by Shannon-Annis and com pany, this offering makes a decided hit.

JeItina the Memory.

The old method of tying a string about the finger to recall to mind some task to be done at a certain time has been done away with. The new way is to transfer a ring from one finger to another. On the accustomed finger the ring feels natural and does not cause annoyance, but on any other fin ger it slightly initiates. This irritation constantly will aid in recalling the task to be done. Just try it once.
