the fact that much OF the story is
either lost in transition or radically
changed at the whim of the director,
but the Paramount production of
."Oliver Twist" being shown at
CrandalPs apollo today, forms q
pleasing exception to this rule. Not
only is the original story strictly ad-
hered to, but the atmosphere of the
period IL represents has been perfect
ly introduced and the types agree
precisely with those the reader pic
lures in his minds eye.
Marie Doro, in the role Of oliver
Twist, gives a delightful impersona-
tion, while the work Of Theodore
Roberts and Tully Marshall as Fa-
gin and the Artful Dodger ig beyond
criticism.
Tomorrow's attraction will be
"Tillie Wakes Up" an uproarious
farce depicting the adventures of a
neglected wife and q henpecKed hus-
band who. seek refuge from their
respective spouses by q holiday at

isfactory role OF her entire career
as a photoplsyer, Mary PIckford Is

Scottish types, as well as the natural
beauty of the settings. Matt Moore

There is evidently lack Of balance in

dog bite is harmless IL the dog is well
or is alive a week or more after the
bite. The bite is then no different from
any other kind of a sore. II. however.
the dog dies within a week or so after

the Pasteur preventive treatment must
be begun at once TO head off rabies.
Rabies. or hydrophobia. cannot develop
from a well dog. because this is a dis
ease caused by the most malignant germ
outside OF cancer that is known. Hy-
drophobia develops from three weeks to
three months or more after a bite that

DOWN WITH THE FOOD HOG

We pirate loudly of our patriot
ism and our duty to the flag; we
call Historically upon the farmer to
speed up production of food crops ;
we even seize our spade and hoe
and attack the back yard in our eff
forts to add to the sum total of
production. All of which is good
very good.
But one highly important fea-
ture of the problem before us must
not escape our attention.
THE FOOD HOG MUST BE
PENNED.
Any sane man knows that large
per cent. of the really extortionate
prices of today are NOT the result
Of an alarming scarcity. They are
the result of an insatiate greed
for gain that takes no account of
the dictates of common humanity.
And this greed is not confined to
