 Theatres.
BEST THEATRE.

Today-Clara Kimball Young will be seen i'll the second production of her own company. This is "The Fool ish Virgin" by Thomas Dixon, author of "The Clansman" and many oth er famous novels.
 Characterized by splendid direction and acting is "The Foolish Virgin" |" the Selznick picture featuring Clara Kirball Young. Albert Capellani has adapted and produced this story by Thomas Dixon in his own style-one is tempted to say in his inimitable style. Throughout the reels one sees the hand of the master craftsman. Subtitles are scarce; no more are shown than needed. There are times in the course of the story when one is measurably stirred or moved.
 Miss Young as the dreamer of wonderful dreams who marries the first knight" that appears on her horizon carries her part with her usual charm and distinction. Con- way Tearle is Anthony, the husband who goes out and makes good after his narrow escape from death from the hands of his mother. Paul Capel- lani is the North Carolina doctor who brings back to life the injured An thony, protects Anthony's wife dur ing the years of regeneration, and submerges himself on the return of the man reconstructed.

Dr. Homer Jordan Declares to Dela, Repentance Is 'Gnjustice to
 Christi"

Dr. A. Homer Jordan preached q
 great sermon last nighi on the suc-
 ject, "Turn Around" This was a dis
 course on repentance.
 s. Repentance" said pr. Jordan. "is no simply sorrow, fo' often we ara sorry for the exposure rather than the deed. Repentance is change from bad to good. Repentance is al- lied with a change of heart There are three elements in repentance, namely, sorrow, determination. an.l
 action. Repentance is not comple.a till one actually give ur his old life. Repentance is necessary because all have sinned. In our sins we are lost. We must be restored to the fav- or of God. No one can be saved un- less he come under Gods law Re- pentance is one of tha steps in com ing under Gods law. Repentance is one of the things in the Gospel plan
 of salvation.
 Many delay repentance thinking they can be safe if they wait till the last hour of life. But it may then be too late. Delay is an injustice 10 Christ" .1-

Who Wins the Battle?

All other things being equal, it's the man, behind the gun that wins the fight. And it's true in other affairs besides battles:
 In banking or in business, success is due to the men behind the counter. We take pride in the statement that every employe of our bank is in structed to be courteous to the public, and to render every reasonable serv- ice possible. We take pride in the fact that the officers, directors and share holders, the men behind this bank are among the leading men of this com munity, men who can be depended upon, men who make this bank what 1t is today. a strong, reliable, secure financial institution.
