 The picture tells how a steel king, who mas given his boyhood and youth in exchange for his massive fortune, finally finds happiness by going to work as a common laborer in his own mill.
 Refusing to listen to the mems de- mand for better wages and safety equipment, Peter Pemberton, common ly called 'Ir9n-hearted Pemberton,7 has just won q strike Little Billy, son of enc of the men in the mill, is to q by his father that Pemberton is human impers onation of the devil Anxious to see if he has horns and everything he goes to his home and youth and age meet.

Today will be the last opportunity to hear the favorite quartet at Riverside park as the organization concludes it's engagement with the evening concert. They will appear from f o'clock to 6 o'clock and from o'clock to 10 o'clock. The music by these negro entertainers has proven one of the most delightful attractions ever offered at this popular resort and it is a matter of regret that they are terminating their engagement.
 Monday and Friday the days when the water is low in the pool are proving more popular with a great many peo- pie than days when the big tank is full. Each How water day" finds an in- creasing number of those who prefer to. disport themselves in various ways not possible when the water is deep. A very interesting and exciting game of water baseball'' was played on last Monday evening by d number of com ing big leaguers." Those on the shore obtained almost as much enjoyment out of the game as those actVeiy en- gagged in it. The children, too, find the low water just to their liking.
 The big feature at the open air thea- ter tonight will be "tlres oi Iodlu, d Pathe Gold Rooster Play in which Fred erck Warde is, seen with Jeanne Eagels supported by Helen Badgley and Robert Vaughn
 Frederick Warde's appearances on the screen have been in one hit after another King Lear was followed by The Vicar of Wakefield" and this wonderful production 4by "Hinton's Double.' No photoplays have received more enthusiastic reviews and comment than these.
 In addition to Frederick Wartle in an- other modern photoplay as an attrac- tion there is beautiful Jeanne Eagels as an added feature in Fires of Youth. Miss Eagels is one of the cieVerest of the younger actresses on the American stage. Her success as George Arliss' leading woman in Disraeli,' "The Pro- fessor's Love Story and other cele- brated plays, has established her in the front rank as have also her appearance es in the all-star cast of The Great l Pursuit and on the screen in Pathe' s "The World and the Woman The l combination of Frederick Warde and Jeanne Eagels is a truly great one. i It is worth remembering also that 1 Fires of Youth is by Agnes C.

and this year we shall send 30 per cent more These exports were really designed for war use but we may eX- pect a market for most of them in peace times also. The American eX- ports of copper amounted to $9,000,- 000 We sent gunpowder worth $57,- 100000
 The war supplies caused a falling off in some of our ordinary exports. agricultural implements dropping from $7,00O,O00 the year before the war to about $500 GOO. There have been corresponding losses in binding tWine. sewing machines and typewrit- CTS. But with peace there will be a restoration of this business. American representatives are paying more at tenton to Russia now than at any time in the past. Some are estab- fishing trade connections that may be expected to endure, while others are investing capital in the develop ment of Russian resources
 Everything is now being subordi- mated to the carrying on of the war and we have sent experts to assist in that work But it would be folly not to take advantage of the great op- portunities of the future. As We have often pointed out, Russia is the one country of Europe in which we may expect to make enormous post bellum gains ri trade 0ud tho ono which will offer the best field for American in- vest ment The opening of the new Kola port will be of special advan- tage, since winter will no longer stop commerce.

in the big city circ-es inere is much discussion as to the merits and demerits of the short feature program and many of the big houses are resorting to short subjects claiming that the patron likes the program where he can leave when he wishes and not miss the big features.
 Concurrent with this thought the management has secured for this date only, Clara Kimball Young in The Test" one of her best early short sub jects. Anita Stewart in "A Regiment for Two" and Edith Story in The Lit tie Strategist" and another of those delightful country life stories made by Mrs. J.

HIP OFFERING ON
 SUNDAY COMPLETE

A triple program is the best way to describe the Hip offering today. Triple because each of the three pie lures served might easily be enough to satisfy the picture patrons. The five reel feature brings back to the screen Mary Miles Minter, dainty blond beauty, in a story of a little gill who was shuttled into a family where she was anything but welcome but where her daintiness and her sweetness won for her recognition from the family alters she had been kicked from pillar to post by the heartless element of the household.
 "The Gentle Intruder" is a sweet, clean entertaining story with one of the prettiest sort of love themes running through the telling. Mary Niles Minter. who is a feature of Talys Broadway theater program in Los Angeles, is rapidly attaining name as one if not the most charm ing girl in the camera world. Her fresh young beauty, her dantyness and her undoubted ability are fast gaining for her a reputation that will see her the biggest drawing star in the younger set Many do not re- call that Mary Miles AIinter was the original Little Rebel' and it was her work in the New York production of that famous drama that won for her a place in pictures.
 With Miss Minter today will be run for the second time holding over from Saturday, "The Honor of Men" the western picture with the fast riding Neal Hart, the cowboy idol in the honor role.
 This good western proved such a hit yesterday that the management held it over for the Sunday showing.
 The Pathe News reel which is a distinct feature in itself is ;he third of the trio of offerings.
 With the big cooling plant pulling the temnerature down in the Hip twenty degrees and the only proper ventilation in the state the local house continues a record summer business.

will be chief interpreters of the sup porting roles. Helen Wright, Miriam Shelby and Sidney Dean will also play important roles. Presentations of "A Dolls House" prove unquestionably pmbirds determination to give to the screen the best works of famous au- thors, done in the best fashion and acted by the most skilfl players ob- tainable Again is truth set behind the assertion: If it's a Bluebird, it's got to be good"
 On this same bill is shown Billie Burke. Her story is about finished and has been praised as the best serial yet shown in Phoenix. A scenic reel of the great northwest completes this double bill.
 Tomorrow Golden Rod" with Alma Hanlon will be shown. It is a story that will appeal to all.

 Lady Barnacle" comes direct from the Symphony in Los Angeles and was accorded one of the biggest weeks of the midsummer season. This program will be further augmented by Beach Nuts striking two reel comedy taken at Ocean Park, Cal, where 50 many Phoenix people are now summering. It is distinguished for the number of pret- ty girls who are engaged for the sole purpose of displaying the latest in bathing suits
 There is combined chance here that the local bather may be able to see d funny comedy with a good program and get ideas for a bathing suit. for they run the gamut of all that the beach affords and some that were never seen before on land or water.
 Friday for the one day oniy "Wo- manhood, the Glory of a Nation will be returned by request. This remark able timely picture of the United States in a mythical conflict will be much appreciated at this time as it shows tc what extent the country might be forced if an invasion Were undertaken The original showing of "Womanhood' was made at advanced prices due to a demand of the makers but they have granted a concession to the theater this , time and no advance will be made.

EXPORTS TO RUSSIA PAST THREE YEARS
 BILLION DOLLARS

The National City bank of New York made q compilation of export figures which shows that the value of our sales to Russia during the three years of war is almost double that for half century before The total for the three years is approxi- mately $1,O00, O00,0 900, while we eX- ported only $575,O0O, ,O00 in the preced- ing fifty years. The war demand is responsible for the great increase. but the character of exports is not en- tirely military. In 1916 we sent to Russia railway cars to the value of SlS,000,000, locomotives worth $12.- GOO, 1000, steel rails and other track material worth $12.000,000, and auto mobiles worth $20.000,000.
