BLANCHE SWEET IN "THE
CAPTIVE" AT GRAND TONIGHT

Blanche Sweet in "The Captive" "
a hoto-dramatization Of the play by
the same name by Cecil B. De Mile
and Jeanie Mcpherson, will be shown
tonight at the Grand theater. It is
a love drama of unusual quality, the
incidents of which all take place dur
ing the recent Balkan conflict be-
tween Turkey and Montenegro. 1t
is the story of an aversion that turns
into love; the narrative of a romance
which begins with hate, seeming to
Justify the assertion that anything is
better than Indifference.
The two principal characters in
'"The Captive" are a Montenegrin
peasant girl and a Turkish noble,
who is made a prisoner of war and
assigned to the peasant to do the work
on her farm and who in the end,
saves her from the Turkish mauraud-
ers. The leading man role is played
by House Peters, who was also Miss
Sweets leading man in "The War
rens of Virginia."

SENIOR CLASS Of
HIGH SCHOOL MEET

At a meeting of the senior class
of the Bemidji high school last night
the matter of choosing a class en-
blem for rings and pins was consid-
cred. A majority of the class favored
the same design as that of the 1915
class. If accepted this same design
will be made the permanent insignia
for rings and pins at the high school.
Graduates will, in such case, be able
to distinguish themselves from other
classes by the date on the rings.
The matter of class play had
been considered at a previous meet
ing, but no definite steps have been
taken. Whether or not an annual
should be published has also been
taken into consideration, but since so
little time remains it has been
dropped.
