ZONE LAW FOR BOTH'
 FOX'S HEADLINER

In view of the present widespread attention created by the critical s1t- uation of the Russian government there could be no more timely at- traction than "One Law for Both. the sensational eight-part feature that opens at Fox's theater this afternoon for two days only. The theme or the production is broader than the oo- vious plea for single, equal stand ard of morality for both sexes. It has a three-fold. message, as the author purposes to convey through the medium of the screen his plea for a single law, to be equally ap- plicable to all orders of society, both in political and economic, as well as a moral sense. To emphasize ms propaganda, the author has located the greater part of his story In Rus sia. The heroine, young Ponsh noble woman has been emblttereo against the Russian government be- cause her parents had been emplt- tered against the Russian government and summarily exiled to Siberia. So she devotes herself to the overthrow of the house of Romanoff, and the liberation of Poland and Russia. The scenes of the revolutionary society's
 
 veyed to the screen with scrupulous accuracy by the author-producer or the picture, who is himself Rus sian and was for a long time an ac- tive member of the revolutionary set. The production goes on to show the betrayal of the society to the secret police, and the tremendous sacrifice the girl makes to save her mother and her comrades from the penalty of their plotting against the little White Father. In this portion of the pro- duction are seen the machinations of the dread secret police, whose very name inspired terror among all orders of Russians. A realistic Cossack raid on a revolutionary meeting is an 1n- teresting feature of the film. In short, "One Law for Both'' ranks as the greatest production of its kind, as is covers in a logical and graphic manner, the prime laws of the po- litical, moral, and economic orders. But this picture is not the only fea- ture worthy of special mention on the program, for there will be also shown the fifteenth chapter of "The Fatal Ring," in which events trans pire which have a direct bearing on the final solution of this big picture puzzle. Among the other subjects of interest will the the Worlds series, a Mutt and Jeff comedy, in which these imaginary cut-ups put over a funny little stunt, and the Pathe News. There will be no increase of prices for this show.

SIDE TALKS
 BY RUTH CAMERON
A Family Jubilee
BY RUTH CAMERON

was in town shopping with a friend of rpine the other day and when We had finished our shopping she said;
 Now I must get some candy and then go up to the florists and get a few fowers.'
 "somebodys birthday" I asked.
 "No." she said, "but Bess is com- ing home tonight
 Bess Is her sister. She had been away for about three weeks and her return was evidently to be made the occasion of a little family festivity.
 I like that. Don't you?
 To Be Sure We Miss the Old
 Homestead.
 I think if more families did that sort of thing we should have more of the family spirit, more of the love of home in which our younger gen. eration seems to be somewhat lacking.
 Of course, the atmosphere of one of row of two family houses or of an apartment with all' modern im- provements different. in no whit from the eighteen other apartments in the building, is not so favorable to the development of family spirit as the atmosphere of an old fashioned homestead, but it can be cultivated if you only care enough.
 Little family institutions and cus- toms will produce family spirit even in hotel, and more one can- not say.
 Make More of the Birthdays.
 Birthdays always bring a family closer together. Why not make
New Britain herald., 1917-10-19

more of them? Not by giving big ger gifts but by having more of 8 celebration? Have a cake not only for the real children but for the child of thirty or sixty or eighty. He will appreciate the little atten- tion even if he laughs at it. Try to get all the family together. Tell big brother and big sister in time so that they can set the day aside as sacred from their innumerable en- agreements. Make a family festivity of it.
 Another pretty family custom. is giving ones mother a gift upon ones own birthday. I cannot imagine anything more tender and fitting. I know some thoughtful sons and daughters who never fail in that pretty custom even if they are thou sands of miles away.
 One of the Little Memory Links.
 An egg hunt at Easter for the children is another quaint old cus- tom that has fallen into disuse and is being revived. A middle aged man told me once of the egg hunts they used to have on Easter. Or dinarily he is a very unenthusiastic person. But in telling me about AAS see that little custom was one of the memory links that linked his heart to the home of forty years ago.
 I have spoken before of the cele- bration of Christmas Eve, not as & wild orgy of bundle tying and er- rand doing, but as a family festival, a time when the heart grows tender to the living and the dead and those housemates who are kept apart by the closeness of their daily as- sociation come really near for once.
 Every little family custom, no matter how simple, even such a little thing as having some special dish on special holiday, is tie to bind the family a little closer together. The children who live in a home where there are many such customs will be sons and daughters who can- not be weaned away from home and the love of 1t by any change of posi- ton or circumstance. ~/C.>~-

DOWN TO EARTH" A
 HIT AT LYCEUM

Theatrically speaking, packed house is the most eloquent tribute that can be paid to the popularity of a production,' and, taking that as a basis, truthfully may it be said that Down to Earth" the most recent of the Douglas Fairbanks features to reach this city, is his crowning achievement, his greatest and most successful effort. When the inimitable comedian appeared yesterday after noon and again last night at the Ly- ceum theater in this picture, capacity audiences were there to greet him. Ticket sales measured up favorably with any since the theater has come the best of 1t is that the crowds came out satisfied that their expectations had been fulfilled.
 In Down to Earth" Fairbanks, playing the part of a healthy. out-of- doors young man, is in love with a girl of the society-bug type. While the wide, rolling country, the vast mountains, and clear fresh air are his best friends, she dotes on pink teas, dansants, theater parties, and other "sports'' of the 400. Despite the diff ference in their characters and likes and dis1ikes being radically different, this big man really loves the clinging vine and resents her familiarity with a tango hound" Finally, while he is spending his time climbing mountains and travelling in foreign countries, his enemy suitor rushes his case and se- cures the promise of the girl to be his wife.
 Then Fairbanks, aroused, starts out to win back the affections he had lost. Did you ever see him in action |? No? Then see him in this picture and get a few pointers on up-to- date, Twentieth Century love-making. Most men would not go to the extremes he ventures to win her, but with "any means to an end'' as his motto, he goes to it. He has to upset the ca reers of two doctors, put a sana- torium out of business, wreck yacht, and does a few other little things like that, but he finally gets there. Inci- dentally, everybody but a few seem happy at the end of the story. Fair banks has plenty of opportunity to display the physical qualities that have made him famous, and puts his action over with all the old pep. Eileen Percy, former star of the zieg- field "Follies,' playing the leading part opposite Fairbanks, with equal ability portrays a young society bud

 What! Not Bill Hart?
 Yes, Sir! William S. Hart, the boy that put the punch in cowpuncher, is coming to Fox's, and he's coming in his latest big success, 'The Cold Deck" and he says himself that he never made better or speedier pie ture, and, what's more to the point, he confesses that he never expects to make another one as good. And he ought to know. 'The Cold Deck" sure is some picture, and that's all there is about it. It would be 8 waste of perfectly good words to tell just how good it is, for the fact that Hart himself is in it means that 1t couldn't be any better. There's only one more fact to be emphasized, and that is that "The Cold Deck' opens at Fox's on Sunday night for three days. A word to the wise, etc.

TX COTTON PRICE

Agreement Reached at New Orleans
Conferences: Ten States Represented
COMMITTEES NJ Seven is Appointed.

New Orleans, Oct. "A price of 80
cents a pound to the farmers was
agreed at meeting here today of men
interested in the marketing and grow
ing Of cotton in ten southern states as
being justified BY the present selling
prices of manufactured cotton prod
ucts. The price was suggested in an
lamendment to resolution adopted
Just previously, which declared against

other body.
Although the amendment, introduced
by L. B. Jackson, director of the Geor-
gia bureau of markets, met with some
ittle opposition, it was recognized as
a compromise measure and was almost
unanimously adopted. Unsuccessful
efforts to have the amendment read S5

LIBERTY MOTOR Il
TRUCK COMPLETED
Greatest Secrecy Observed in Con.
struction: Designed by Noted Ex-
perts.

Limo, o., Oct. 8.-The first liberty
motor truck for the United States.
product of the greatest designers Of
the country and the combined genius
of twelve motor truck plants and six
ty-two automobile parts factories, was
completed today at local manufactu-
ring plant.
The standardized machine, of which
$4,000 will be turned out in the first
half of 1918, is said to represent the
perfection of automobile truck deveE
-opment. 1t is propelled by the new
liberty motor.
Lima is preparing for a great pat
riotic' demonstration when the new
army truck is given its first road test,
probably late this week. High army
officers, including the quartermaster
general and possibly Secretary Baker,
are arranging to attend. Following
tests at the factory, the truck will
start on an endurance run to the east.
The first liberty motor truck was
built in the greatest secrecy to protect
it from enemy eyes. A building with
out windows and lighted only by sky
lights housed the truck during the
three weeks of its construction. The
plant was closely guarded by armed
men night and day
AS an added precaution, second
truck was assembled in on Eastern
city. AS each part was completed here
a duplicate was dispatched to a north
ern New York town, where mechanics
assembled a second machine. If the
parts were small, they were sent by
registered mail. If too big to ship that
way, trusted mechanics carried them
personally by train.
Similar precautions surrounded parts
manufactured in the sixtv-odd facto-
ries which contributed to the machine.
As each part was completed it was dis
patched to Lima in charge of an army
representative who kept factory off
cials informed of his progress by tel
egraph. No one company knows the
complete design or what other compa-
nies made other parts.
