News For Theater8oerS and Women Readers
DUSTIN FARNUM IN
 OLD FRENCH DRAMA

Tomorrow brings another one of those big special Wednesday Thurs day shows to Fox's theater. The fea. tured attraction will be a new Fox production, "The Scarlet Pimpernel," which is the screen version of the very successful and widely read book of the same name from the fertile pen of Baroness Orczy. That it is just as successful as a picture as it was as a book is evident from the fact that no less star than Dustin Far mum was selected to play the leading role in it, and from past experiences it is safe \to state that anything with which any of the Farnums is asso- ciated must be a mighty good propo- sition. Mystery, romance, intrigue, adventure, danger and daring all vie with one another for interest in The Scarlet Pimpernel." The story of the picture deals with the general con- ditions of England and France in and around the year 1792. the period of the French revolution, popularly called because of the means adopted by the popular party to enforce their will over that of the aristocrats the Reign of Terror It is one of the most absorbing periods of earlier modern history, from the storming of the bastile. which was in itself both symbolic of the new attitude of the people, and prophetic of their abso- lute overthrow of tyranny, down to the establishment of some sort of democratic government in France. Historians lay great stress on the in f1uence that our, own revolutionary struggle, but 0 few years before, had in holding up the spirit of the revo- lutionists .and aiding them to &C., complish their purpose. But while it lasted, the Reign of Terror was all that the name implied. The streets ran red with blood, and no one was safe Dustin Farnum plays the part of Sir Percy Blakeny. the leader of q band of Englishmen who make it their business to rescue whatever aristocrats they deem worthy, and be- cause of tho emblem they adopt-a small red fower-Blakeny is known as the Scarlet Pimpernel.A
 Among the other interesting fea- lures on the program will be The Seven Pearls" and 'The Red Ace" with the Pathe News.

CHARLES RAY STILL t.
 KNOCKS FEM OVER

I'm calling your bluff. If you make the grade, I'll give you half interest here, otherwise there'll be new brakeman on the worst road T. own. Go to it." s
 With these words James 'Carbhoy,, railroad magnate and financial leader, sent his son, Gordon, youth just out of college, into the world to make good his boast that in six months he could turn $5,00O into $100,O0O. The elder Carbhoy was used to taking long chances, used to calling bluffs, and was accustomed to seeing fortunes made in short time, but this spend- thrift, good-for-nothing son of his turn his capital into twenty times the amount in six months? Never! Cor don, however. thought differently, and being a good sport was obliged to. take his father at his word. If he had not, probably there would never be such story as The Son Of His Father" at the Lyceum today. But he did, and Charlie Ray as Gordon Carbhoy. the young man with the big job Is therefore heading the Lyceum program in this wonderful play.
 Directed by Thomas H. Ince and acted by Charlie Ray, either part of this statement, spoken of any picture. would assure its ready success, but when both are used one may easily imagine the result. Rays latest is the master work of two artists, we'll staged and worked up to wonderful climaxes; replete with interesting mo- ments and thrilling scenes. Rays fights are especially good. Chairs are used as weapons in the tdssle for heart and hand, and for ,ilifelike scenes, some of those presented by Ray bring out more gasps than the ordinary championship prize fight The picture will be at the Lyceum to- day and tomorrow.
 Another feature on the program will be a motion picture of Kerensky. Russia's iron man, who is seen di- recting the activity. of the Russian. forces. The Lyceum Weekly an6 others will also be shown.

LUTHERAN GLEE CLUB
GIVES FINE CONCERT
St. Paul College Boys Were Well
Trained Group-Gave Two Con-
certs Sunday

The Lutheran Seminary Glee Club
of st. Paul made a very favorable ap-
pearance to the large Morris aud
fences that we're present to hear
them at the Lutheran Synod church
Sunday morning and at the Orpheum
theatre Sunday night. The morning
concert was given at the regular SER
vices Of the Synod church and the
musical program of the same evening
was given to the public. The proceeds
of the entertainment will be given to
the foreign missionary fund of the
church. .+,
There were fourteen members of
the glee club. Prof. John Dahle,
the director of the club, is RESPONSE
BILE for the excellent ensemble work
of the singers. AS soloists, the men,
bers of the club proved to be excep-
tionally good. The first part of the
program was devoted to sacred songs
of Norwegian, Swedish and German
composers. For the second half of
the program, the glee club rendered
some Of the favorite folk songs and
national airs OF Norway.
AS an intermission number be-
tween the first and second part of
the musical program, Prof. o. e.
Brandt, of the Luther Seminary IA
Guilty, delivered lecture on the sub
ject What is in a Name?"
There is something in name, /"
said the Rev. Brandt. '"The name
stands for the character and the per-
sonality of a man. In Biblical
times every name had a deep signi-
fcance, for instance, the name David
meant the beloved of God the name
Ruth, meant friendship, etc."
Shakespeare was right" said
DR.. Brandt, when he made one of
his most famous characters say:
Good name in man and woman, dear
my Lord
Is the immediate jewel of their
souls.
He who steals my purse, steals trash,
IT'S something, nothing; twas mine
tits his
And has been slave to thousands,
But he, who robs me of my good
name,
Robs me Of that which not enricheth
him
And makes me poor indeed "
The modern method of naming a
child is not so much to give him a
name that has any significance so
much as to give name that is euph-
onious, is DR.. Brandt's belief. Even

GETS SIXTY DAYS
FOR SETTING GUN
Man Sets Trap Gun in Woods; SLAVES
Mustache to Avoid De-
lection

Graid Rapids Herald Review
Vincent Albert, we'll known char
acter in this section who has been
employed at Sicily brothers camp,
south of Pokegama lake, was given
a straight sentence of sixty days at
hard labor by Judge Huson last Sat
urday on a charge of having a set
gun in the woods near the camp.
The gun was discharged by Walter
Cone of Cohasset who came within
a few inches of walking into the
string which was set across a deer
runway. The gun was pointed di-
rectly at Mr.. Cone when he discov-
cred the trap and was so near he
could touch it with his hand. Sus-
picion fell at once upon Albert as
the gun was readily identified and
as Albert disappeared from the camp
He was traced to Calumet by Deputy
Sheriff Ed. Carson and although he
had shaved off his mustache to
avoid detection, he was found in a
boarding house in that village and
brought back to Grand Rapids. APP
pearing before Judge Huson, Albert
entered a plea Of guilty and was
given the maximum sentence for the
crime.

Guard Bridges in Iron Range

Grand Rapids Herald Review
Some idea of the far-reaching effect
of war was given to Grand Rapids

event of war with Germany some eff
fort might be made by German
agents to cripple the steel industry
by blowing up the bridges on the
