Grand Saturday.

Mystery plays have strong appeal
to a majority of theater patrons just
as detective stories are more gener-
ally read than any other type Of fic-
ton. The detective story in printed
form takes on new interest when the
sensations and surprises are vizual-
lied by camera trickery. "The Mys-
terious Mr.. Tiller" to be exhibited at
the Grand theater tomorrow, Satur-
day, combines the lure of a corklng
good detective story with the fas-
cination of a battling mystery play.

GRAND~TONIGHT

OF the play to be shown at the
Grand theater tonight, the Moving
Picture World critic says:
"Convict 993" makes strong bid
for first honors in the entertaining
Pathe Plays, with Irene Castle in
the leading roles. It is smoothly
developed, fascinating detective
story, with an unexpected denoue-
ment that gives observers a delight
full thrill. Mrs. Castle also rises to
her personal opportunities better in
this number than in any of the
others.

NOT MARK OF DISRESPECT
Omission of "Mr." Before Name OF
President Is Thoroughly Sane
toned by Good Usage.

A Kansas City teacher asks the
Star whether it is really in good taste
to refer to the president in a head
line or elsewhere as "Wilson." Ought
it not always be "Mr. Wilson" or
president Wilson," she asks. It has
Jared on her in reading the news
to pupils to find the presidents name
used without a handle.
Hard and fast rules in matters of
good taste are difficult to establish. In
general the title is appropriately used
with the presidents name; in general,
but not always. The omission of the
title is not disrespectful on the con-
trary, the more distinguished the man,
the more the omission Of the title is
sanctioned by good usage. We speak
of Webster, Calhoun, Lincoln, Glad
stone habitually without the "Mr."
So with living men. Isn't it more often
edison" than "BIr. Edison" 'Berg-
son. than IN. Bergson," "Kipling" than
''Mr. Kipling," 'Lloyd George" than
''Mr Lloyd George" "Poincare" than
IN. POincare," "Kerensky" than "Mr.
Kerensky?"
When reference is made to a we'll
known man by his name without IT,
tie or even initials, there is an implied
compliment. The implication is that
there is only one Lloyd George, only
one Clemenceau, only one Wilson.
Whether the title is used or not de-
ponds largely on what seems to be the
requirements of the occasion.-Kansas

Entire Town on Auction Block

Any man whose ambition is to own
a whole town will have an opportunity
to satisfy his desire.
By direction of Lord Stalbridge, the
owner, the entire town of SALISBURY,
England, will be put on the auction
block, including private houses, banks,
postoffices, stores, offices, hotels and
three saloons. The town is in a pic
turesque part of Derbyshire, perched
on hill in the midst of rolling farm
country. The nearest railway station
is three miles distant, at Semley.
Sales of great estates are frequent
in these days, when taxes are eating
up profits and many of the younger
generation of the nobility are losing
their lives on the battIefields. This is
the first sale of an entire town which
has been arranged.
