On the Screen
Tides of Barnegat' and "A
level in Pawn Are
Shown Privately

II was a chastened and unadorned
Blanche Sweet who appeared on the
screen in "The Tides OF Barnegat." a
Lasky picture, which was shown in me
projection room.
Miss Sweets charm is peculiar. One
either likes her a great deal or rot at
all. and her dlshevelled couture always
seems part Of her; so one hardly
recognized her as the plain sister VINO
taught school and shouldered the bur
den of her attractive sisters sins.
In Miss Sweets support are FL lott
Dexter, Tom Forman and Harrison
Ford, who did such excellent work IN
"The Mysterious Mrs. VI"
The story tells Of two sisters. Jane
and Lucy Cogden, who live in Barne-
cat. Jane stays at home and teaches
school, so that Lucy may 90 TO college,
and as is generally the case, Lucy APP
preciates this sacrifice not at all.
When Lucy comes home for her vaca-
ton she makes things hum, finally 60
ing out on a sailing party. She IS
forced 10 remain on lonely island all
night because the boat drifts away
without Lucy and her companion. Her
partner in distress is Bart Holt, an old
admirer Of Jane before the advent Of
the brilliant Lucy.
Somehow Lucy manages 20 put the
blame on her sister. ard when son ar
rives she leaves the care of him also TO
her sister and walks away and mar
ries Sydney Gray.
Jane bears il all unselfishly and
gives up the idea of marriage with FL
lott Dexter. who in the picture is DR..
John Cavendish. But things finally ad-
just themselves, and Jane is rein
stated and marries the man Of her
choice.
Miss Sweets work in this picture is
quite convincing. Little Billy Jacobs
also deserves honorable mention in a
child part

the Bremen encountered n severe storm
and. according to all indications, was
lost. what has happened 90 the
Deutschland no one seems 20 know
Early in January the Berlin papers
announced that the merchant sub
marines would carry mail 20 the United
States, but that mail for tho next ship,
presumably tho Deutschland. had to be
in Bremen before January 20. When
7 was IN Paris I was asked where the
Deutschland was. did not know.
The official who asked me said: Don't
be surprised il the English navy
captured it,"
krupp Has Four Others.
English friends later confirmed this,
bat I doubt whether accurate reports
will be received until the English gov
eminent H. ready 20 make the an
nouncement. II the English have capt
urcd the Deutschland, Krupp still has
four others. But now that the Unitod
States is at war with Germany these
submarines will not be sent here az
merchant ships. Krupp. however, can
easily loan or sell them 10 the German
navy for supply ships for submarines
operating in the Atlantic or off the
American or African coasts. They CAT
he made to hold tons Of supplies. BY
use of such ships big ocean cruising
submarines could stay in the Atlantic
for months without returning TO thor
base at Heligolend or Wilhelmshayen.
Merchant submarines were l1aded
with dyeatuFs and knitting needles
for the United States becausa large
sums of money could be collect I'd here
for these materials. The frs. voyage
Of the Deutschland. so it was said in
Berlin, Melted Lohmann about half
million dollars. But the risk was so
great that unless the Deutschland
was bringing military cargoes for the
government. the government could not
permit he manufacture ard coTstruc-
ton. General Director Ballin OF the
Hamburg American Line proposed two
years ago ar board meeting that
merchant submarines be built. brt the
proposal was not carried because the
directors expected peace. and, also the
government would not encourage the
construction OF any ships which were
not needed for military purpose.

CAR SHORTAGE IMMINENT
Delay in Production In Certain In Prnc-
ticnliy All Automobile piants
In the Country.

"pclay IN production Is certain in
practically all automobile plants
throughout the country this year, due
to several unusual conditions. the mos,
important OF which is shortage OF Ger
tain materials"
This Is the Keynote OF a statement
issued this week by George $. Waite.
sales manager OF the Grant Motor Car
Corporation. which adds:
The AUTOMOBILES buying public docs
not realize the difficulties which viii
confront them when they decide to pur-
chase and take delivery of an automo-
bile in the spring. This year tho auto
mobile they select in the spring is UNI
likely TO be ready for delivery at that
time. due to the most unusual and most
threatening conditions that have CON
frontcd the automobile industry from
the time Of it's inception.
Every one. OF course. is generally
familiar with tho fact that shortages
OF material are constantly arising.
What they do not realize is that these
shortages are serious enough TO hamper
greatly the efforts of all manufacturers.
This. coupled with disorSanizcd and
conScstcd railroad traffic and the lack
OF coal i'll some sections. Will oblgc au-
tomobilc manufactures to slow down.
IL not FOR a period of indctcrmiuatc
length. suspend operations entirely.
prospective automobile buyers who
intend TO order and obtain Il motor car
late in the season should be acuuaintc ID
with the unfortunate conditions sur
rounding the automobile industry to-
day. for their own benefit Nothing Is

CHEAP Tires" EXtrnyuEnut.

There is probably no form Of auto
mobile extravaganza greater than that
practiccd i'm buying tires. and Il great
deal OF this extravaganza lies in tho
purchase of cheap tires" that tho
dealer is sure are Just as good" as
tho wcll-madc standard tires made by
great factories with great orEaniza-
lions behind them.
But car owners who study tho tire
question for themselves are rapidly
coming to realize that tho purchase or
these cheap" tires is !, waste Of money
that in the end tho wcll-madc stand

more. will show tho lowest cost per
