of the theatre are done somewhat bet
ter than the serious ones. Ibsen is sell
dom presented with so much care as a
Midnight Frolic." Both the late
shows of New York are distinctively
artistic in setting and costuming. For
the rest they are not noteworthy, with
the exception of the Dooleys, at the
Century, and Bert Williams, on the
New Amsterdam Roof. Still, if these
midnight revues are worth doing at all
they are worth doing we'll, and New
York rounds out this form of entertain
ment just little better than it is done
anywhere else in the world
S. L. Rothapfel, who knows great
deal about the business of showing
moving pictures, about singing and
about orchestral music, has said some
wise words concerning the function of
the film in warfare.
1--WE earnestly deplore," writes Mr.
Rothapfcl in little booklet, "the pre-
patriotic fervor which imbues the
American people at the present mo-
ment, as evidenced in the production
of crudely conceived and badly executed
pictures in which an ill-concealed at
tempt is made to commercialize our
love of country. There is no room on
our screens for such films, nor for any
news pictures whose captions have been
written In staggering vein of bragga-
docio entirely foreign to the spirit
which animated the men who are actu-
ally on the firing line for US"
Mr.. Rothapfel has done more than
express this theory. His picture oily
ing With the Marines" should serve as
model for American war films. Not
only was it by far the most thrilling
war picture shown here in New York
so far, but no attempt was made t.
punch home the effects by overwrtten
titles.
the spectators, we must confess that
the first round has gone entirely
against us. Mr.. Edwin Hopkins has
espoused the side of the spectators
with such skill that we will be forced
to abandon our attack entirely unless
strong help comes to us from some un-
expected quarter. Mr.. Hopkins has
. clearly justified the business of the
speculator, from an economic stand
point. Perhaps something still remains
10 be said against the practice of ad-
vertising "best seats at the box office"
when they are not there. That, how
ever, is not the fault of the Spectator,
but of the manager
A great many people who say that
they can't abide classical music are
going about these days whistling a
little melody of Chopn's called Fan
tasie Impromptu." OF course the blow
is softened by the fact that this little
tune was extracted from the Chopin
piece and put into musical comedy
under the title "l'm Always Chasing
Rainbows"

Mills and support him with your
money and your time. If you will
do tins we will not be loosing three

IIEIlZSTEIN FIRM CLOSED By
FOOD ADMINISTRATION ORDER


All stores operated in Colorado
and New Mexico by the Herzstein
Company, dealers in feed and grain
by an order issued by Herbert Hoov-
er. The REASON of the order as
announced by the Food Admins
tratiOn, is a violation of the rul-
ings of the administration on sale
and handling of Pinto Beans.
The hearing was held last week
and Mr.. Barnes, of Albuquerque,
n. NJ, head of the enforcement bu-
rcau recommended suspension of
business by the firm.
This firm operates three stores,
at Clayton and Estancia N. NJ. and
Greeley Colorado. The store at
Clayton is one ofthe largest in the
southwest. aSf#M
According to the repored findings
OF Mr.. Barnes, the company engaged
in Unfair practices and seven counts
were placed against them. The al
legged unfair pratlccS consist of.
/. In buying beans in the dirt
from farmers at an arbitrary basis
presumed to be the same as the
basis of cents for recleaned beans,
which is the basis set by the govern
ment.
? Failure of the principal house
and the concern at EStancia tO make
monthly reports as required.
3. Reporting 10000 pounds of re-
cleaned beans at Clayton when it
was admitted that the concern had
handled 5O0,G00 pounds of regicaned
bean t' excess above report.
Z. UbmiSSiOn of trick samples.
.. misrepresentation OF quality Of
products.
rccleaning OF beans which had been
rejected by the government as below
standard.
Z. Attempt to evade government
cuntrot of the Pinto BeaR-situation.
Mr. Herbert HerZstem of Clayton
says ne did not intend to violate
any of the rulings of the admins
tlati'u, and that his failure TO make
reports as required was due TO neg
ligeuc' and not to any wilful at
tempt ON his part to conceal Facts or
