In ordinary times there are always

these are not ordinary times. At any

more than ever before dependent on

Keeper" a new Triangle play, show
ing at the Bonita tomorrow, when
Irene Howley as Claire Masters, de-
sCribes woman's place through the
ages in an argument with her father,
a master of finance, who will not per
NIT her to enter upon career IN
business.
AS Miss Howley tells of woman's
subserviency to man during various
epochs and in various countries, her
word description is illustrated with
pictures.
First an incident of the cave man
age is flashed on the screen. A
primitive brute, dressed in skins, ap-
proaches an equally primitive wom-
an, strikes her and then bears her
off under his arm to serve as his
slave. Another phase of the argu-
ment is illustrated by a squaw carry
ing wood and building fires for her
Indian brave. This is followed by
a view of a European village, where
women serve as beasts of burden. FL
nally appears the woman Of today
preparing her husbands meals and
caring for his children, still subnis-
sive to the will of man and unable
to develop any individual talents with
which she has been endowed.

kind" cries the girl, resolutely facing
/ her father, "and I am going to use
them"

term Of the Montgomery county cir

of Stockton Heth, Jr,. who was proni-

Early in the morning of March IS,
Heth, clad only IN pajamas, was
found MORALLY wounded in an upper
hallway of the Vawter home at
BIacksburg, where he was an over
night guest. Three bullets from a
revolver had entered his body, the
range Of the shots being upward, in
diCating they had been fired from
the stairway. Professor Vawter was
arrested on a warrant charging him
with the shooting, but was released
under $1,000 bond after waving a
preliminary hearing.
Just before he died early in the
of Lieut.. Clement Heth, of the United
States army, and Commemorative at

got d thing to stand on"

At 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon,
elaborate opening exercises were

The Cravens family was we'll re
