"The Fighting Grin" at The Hip

Here is the receipt for a smart even ing's entertainment and will be worth while jotting down. Five act picture play, Fighting Grin." Used in the Making" Two men introduced as youngster just budding into manhood bitter enemies; they grow to hate one another more and more each year. They are business rivals-one has a son, the other a daughter and the two fall in@love. Plenty of reason for plot, counter plot and heaps of action, but add to this Franklyn Farnum and beautiful Edith Johnson as the boy and the girl and you have the reason for the spice of mixture.
 The pair elope and that is the sauce which lends piquancy to this mixture for the father of girl overtakes them and insists on her marriage to anoth- CT, the determined lover. with fighting grin. turns in fire alarm, plenty of thrills; boys father has his son thrown into a box car for transportation any where away from his hated rivals girl
 Just how this ends is best told in one of the fastest moving comedies of the Bluebird season. Added for good meas ure is the regular semi-Weekly reels of l current events.

rules which have been promulgated by the meat division states:
 There has been a slight decrease in the prices paid by the packers for live stock. It is not desirable that the prices for live stock be driven down further, or to point which will de- stroy production-rather production must be stimulated Under these rules the packers have no incentive to sell meat products at figures which net them any speculative profit, or an un- reasonable profit"
 Restaurants Are Affected
 The recent advance, coming as 1t does as the climax of a series of in creases which have been sprung with startling rapidity beginning with the first of the year. is giving much con- cern to the restaurant and cafe pro- prietors.

 One of the wonders of Southern Cal ifornia in the fall is shown to "a mi ifornia in the fall is shown to rare ad- vantage in the new Triangle seven reel feature, T Love You" in which Alma Rubens has the leading role at the Co., lumbia theater today. The story is laid in Southern Italy and France. and the opening of the story calls for beauti- ful garden setting. A vast acreage of chrysanthemums in full bloom was used by Director Walter Edwards and furnished a most unusual background for the picture.
 A touching little scene which lasts but few seconds on the screen but which took Director Walter Edwards many hours to secure. is that of the wooing of two doves shown in T Love You" The doves are shown billing and cooing. and the scene fades out on one putting his wing shelteringly about the other for all the world like a man throwing his arms about his sweet heart
 The Hoyt comedy, "A Dog in the Manager will also be shown again to- night.

VAN bUREN WORK WIDTH QUESTION

Whether Van Buren street from Third to Sixth avenues sahll be paved to width of 45 feet. with 1012 feet on either side for sidewalks and parking, rests largely with the action of owners of the property bordering on the north side of the proposed paved roadway. Present indications, in the opinion Of City Engineer l.. E. Hitchcock, are that these property owners will today ap- pear before the city commission and propose to deed to the city strip Of land 1874 feet wide, which added to the 52% feet embraced within the present street area, will give full width of 66 feet. Deducting 45 feet for the paved roadway would leave 101s feet on either side for walks and parking.
 The residents of West Van Buren street have long been working to the end that the proposed paving should not be less in width than 45 feet. In order to do this it would have been necessary to throw the street out of alignment between Third and Sixth avenues, as compared with the street on either end. Since the commission officially fixed the width of the pro- posed paving at 45 feet. the property owners have been considering the problem of how sidewalks were to be taken care of when the paving is com pleted.
 Engineer Hitchcock believes the problem is going to solve itself. He says that yesterday quite a number ot owners of Van Buren street property visited his office and expressed a will lingness to deed a tract of land suf ficient to give uniform paving. It has been found that the section line run. but 19% feet from the property line while it is 33 feet from the south prop. erty line. Giving the city 1874 fee from the property on the north sid' of the street will make it possible t' keep the paving in the exact center 0 1 the street and at the same time il direct line with the proposed paving a either end.

 Averaging the prices in the above list an advance of more than IS per cent is shown.
 While the advances in some in- stances appear to be slight the restau- rant men point out that they are ex- tremely severe in view of the former raises which have come from time to tline since the first of the year. Loin of peef, Tor example sold at 20 to the restaurants at the first of the year. The advances since then have been. it is claimed, to 21 cents, then to 22 cents, 23 cents. "A cents and then to 31 cents. Prime ribs sold for 19 cents on January and the advances have been to 20 cents, 22 cents and then to 33 cents.
 That the new advances must be re- flected in the menus of all eating es- tablishments is the concensus of opin- ion among the restaurant men and in some instances increased prices are al- ready in effect.
 Will Readjust Menu have had to readjust our prices" :" sald NJ. Cuslck, steward of the Adams Hotel last night in discussing the sit uatlon, and all restaurant men in the city will have to do the same thing if they are to remain in business. As a matter of fact this readjustment of prices has but just started and with if readjustment of menu. By that mean we will be compelled to utilize more of the so-called trough cuts and the man who wants a fancy. cut will nave to pay for it. that is all. The DOT tlons cannot be cut any smaller The minimum has been reached in this re- spect and the only thing left to do is to serve cheaper meat or charge more for the meat which has been served.''
 Restaurants May Organize
 Continuing MT. Cusicl said: There are two things for which the restau- rant men are paying out, too much money One is the meat bill and the other is the pay roll. Unless these are reduced. they might as well close up their doors now as. to have them closed by the sheriff little later on. What is most vitally needed at this time is thorough organization. Labor and all other business lines are now organized except the eating establishments,
 T am not in a position to state whether the new meat prices are justi- fable or not, but do know that with the proper kind of an organization. we would be in a better position to exact our just dues.
 A meeting of the restaurant men has been called for Thursday night.
 The wholesale meat concerns main- tain that the new advances are wholly Justified In support of this contention figures were submitted by a x certain slaughter house to one of the restau rants to show that one particular lot of 50 steers slaughtered last Saturday there was a loss instead of gain in the transaction. Here are the figures

Jacobs Expected Home Today

Louis E. Jacobs tro"re of musical comedy stars is returning to the Elks today, according to present plans, to enter into the permanent run of stock throughout the summer. The bill in which they will be seen is revue of the Follies type called Watch Your Step," and is said to be replete with funny situations, vaudeville specialties and nifty numbers but without much of plot to tax the jaded brain of the tired business man.
 As a prominent citizen and theater- goer remarked, Lou surely is gifted with sense of the beautiful" and it is evidently proven that Jacobs talent for picking beautiful women is in perfect working order, judging from the galaxy of attractive damsels who constitute the fair members of his company.
 Jacobs, who pioneered better show business in Arizona, has outdone him. self with his present company and has set new high-wate mark for those who may follow him to compete against. His company is not only larg- CT, but most talented and should short ly become warm favorites with the To- cal theater goers.
 Many new song hits have been inter- polated in Watch Your Step" not the least of which is Scotch dance by the McMartin Sisters, "Allah's Holiday" by Eunice Gilman, Southern Gals by Nellie Chick and several specialties to- gether with monologue by Jimmie Edwards, which is said to be a side splitter.
 The girls in delightfully."- colored cos- tunes will cavort through some en- trancing steps in the light fantastic.

 While this is her first Paramoun picture, her success as a star was al instant one, for her sympathetic pre- sentation of the role at once stamped her as a motion picture actress of eX ceptional accomplishment.

Unwittingly she is respon sible for valuable information fallin into the hands of this unfriendly coun try's representatives, and how she zoe about to right the wrong she has done and at the same time save the life o the man she has ruined, forms tn leading theme of this remarkable story
