TURN ID TIE RIGHT" HERE AT JEFFERSON. WITH ORIGINAL CAST
Celebrated Comedy Present. cd Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, With Mat
 inee Wednesday

With it's peach blossoms, it's old fashioned mother and it's nimble-witted young crooks, Turn to the Right" comes to the Jefferson theatre tomor- row for three nights and a matinee Wednesday. The most sensational com edy drama success of the present the atre-g going generation, it's coming is one of the great outstanding events of the sea son.
 MT. Winchell Smith and Mir John L. Golden are sending the original cast and production and the play will be seen here exactly as it ran for 13 months at the Gaiety theatre New York. and nine months at George NJ. Cohan's Grand opera house, Chicago. Turn to the Right,' which is told in q prologue and three acts, deals with the regeneration of three wayward youths through the love of a white-haired, saintly old lady, the mother of one of them. Though it bristles with good fun, its lesson goes straight to the heart and places the play on plane with 'The Old Homestead" Way Down East and others of that rugged type. In it's comedy lines and situations 1t bears a resemblance to "The Fortune Hunter" and there is enough religious spirit to entitle 1t to niche with Ben -Hur."
 Joe Bascom returns to his old home after a seven-years absence, to find that the place Is about to be seized for debt by the village skinflint. With empty pockets he is powerless to sat- isfy the debt. As the clouds are lower ing about the little farmhouse, two for mer prison pals of Joe appear at the Kitchen door to ask for food. Muggs and Gilly have stopped off in town when their boxcar is shunted into a siding and they have been attracted to the Bascom cottage by the aroma of q kettle of peach jam, placed on the win dow ledge to cool. They quickly grasp the situation and before the Bascoms realize what is happening, the skinflint is outtricked and the farm is saved. The raising of the money provides one of the most ingenious comedy situations ever devised.
 Muggs and Gilly remain to help lar- vest the peach crop, which brings pich returns when converted into Mother Bascom's celebrated jam. They are taken into the family circle and by the Influence of Joe's mother are restored to lives of honesty and usefulness Young Bascom. never had at heart, IS eventually exonerated of the charge that sent him to prison and all ends happily.
 In the original company. to be seen here, are Ralph Morgan, Barry McCor- mack. William Foran, James H. Hunt ley, Philip Bishop, Gene Lewis, Charles ", Goodrich, Samuel Lowenwirth. George Spelvin. Mabel Bert, Ethel Re- mey, Helen Collier. Dorothy Betts and Maude Fox.

 Two men were sitting at lunch table in a city cafe.s Outside the air was soft and balmy and everything in nature was a sweet allurement to buy railroad ticket and hasten to the woods.

BREWERY GIVEN
STORAGE PLACE
Rock Island Company Secures Dis
tributing Point in South Mo-
line Township.

The Rock Island Brewing COM
pany has secured a site for a dis
tributing point for its product.
1t is on the Mueller farm, which
is few blocks east of Forty-first
street, Moline, on Colona avenue.
1t is in South Moline township and
said to be outside of the five-mile
zone. William Mueller, Sr., owner
of the property, who has leased the
site TO the brewing company, has
declared that the deal has been con-
summated, and since there already
is lumber on the ground, it is eX-
pected that construction of the
storage house will be started at
once.
Since Rock Island was voted dry
on April there has been more or
less speculation in Moline concern
ing the future plans of the brewing
company. Persons were reasonably
sure that the Rock Island company
would locate in South Moline, and
felt certain, further, that the loca-
ton would be more than five miles
from Rock Island arsenal, because
they believed that the brewing COM
pany would not care to build and
then tear down again should the
government make the dry zone CO.
extensive with the vice zone.
The distribution point is about
six miles from the brewery, which
is on Seventh avenue and Thirtieth
street, Rock Island. Thus, to de-
liver a case of beer across the
street from the plant. the brewing
company will have to transport 1t
II miles
