to see the strange soldiers in skirts,
OF whom Cologne had heard with un-

Contrary to usual procedure, the Hip screens but three pictures this week beginning today. Alice Brady in Her Silent Sacrifice" comes first and remains for three days, giving way to what critics believe is Lois Weber's greatest creation, despite the fact that she gave to the screen such wonderful pictures as "The Hypocrites," Scandal" Jewel" and others. The latest Weber creation is called The Price of a Good Time" and is so unusual that on the oc- casion of it's initial run at the Su- perba theater in Los Angeles, it was held over for a second week because not more than half of the people who wished admittance could be accommodated.
 The Price of a Good Time" deals with the lives of two girls. One born with silver spoon has every thing her heart desires, while the other starved for the bare necessi- ties of life, blossoms in her native beauty in a hovel.
 One night she revolts against the sociak laws that have cast her lot in filth and poverty and decides to market her beauty for one night. One little morsel in the overflowing basket of the rich One crumb in the cupboard of the careless, and the story deals with her one glor- ious night and it's price. Here is a

The lineup for the first part of the week at the LIamara offers a program of exceptional value. Three features constitute the bill William s. Hart is on hand appearing in Dakota Dan" wherein he is seen in a role that he has made famous. His western delineations have never been equaled, and today he stands at the top of the profession as character actor depicting the bold, big-hearted westerner of the early days. Harold Lockwood is on the same program, featured in a Metro super-picture, 'The Averaging Trail v This picture is being shown in Phoe- nix ahead of the coast, aLd is what is known as a release picture. The film is in excellent shape, never having passed through a projecting machine before. and the story, one of the most arduouS that this popu- lar star has ever been seen in. The plot is laid among the great forests of the northwest, the exterior scenes having been made while the ground was covered with snow. It is said to be truly a picture beautiful. The Black Diamond comedy Susie Slips One Over finishes out the pro- gram, and is of the type that is sure fire.

That's funny statement to make but 1 can prove it.
 You know in winter the streets are seldom cleaned, especially in the resi- dence sections, and consequently a lot of debris is left on them. This debris, in the natural course of events, gravi- tates from the center of the street to- ward the curb, where it finally accu- mulates. a menace to the tires of every automobile in the street Walking along a curb, I have made it a point to note how many different objects there were in sight that could harm an automobile tire, and I have noticed as many as fifty in two hundred feet, in- cluding nails, bits of broken glass, stray tire chain links, and every imag- inable kind of junk.
 If motorists, in parking their cars, would stop about a foot away from. the curb, instead of driving right up to it, I am satisfied they would save themselves quite a lot of money. know that since I tried it, it has re-

WINTER HINTS By Chev-ro- Jay Owner

In keeping my car tuned up to the minute this winter, I have profited largely by the advice of the local Chevrolet service manager. AS the weather started getting colder and colder, I remembered having heard some place that it was the proper caper to adjust your carburetor for running in cold weather, and also that a change to lighter grade of oil than I had been using was necessary. It sounded reasonable, but nevertheless I went to the service manager about it.
 It's a good thing 1 did, for when I preached the matter he said: Don't trifle with the carburetor. Let a man who knows make adjustments when necessary. The carhuretor used on the Chevrolet has been carefully tested and adjusted before leaving the factory No adjustments are necessary for cold weather running.
 AS for oil, no change is necessary there either. The Chevrolet uses a light cylinder oil with a flash point of not less than 425 and a fire point of 475 degrees the year round.'
 What is this trouble I hear called frozen carburetor' I asked. q didn't know you could freeze gaso- line"
 That's right, you can't freeze gaso- line.' retorted the service manager, "and the trouble is due to something
