The Imperial government requests

The parliamentary leaders of all

the Exchange Telegraph from Ber-
l lin says that after a five-hour ses-
sion OF the German caDinet IhurS-

said:
These conditions are nothing else
than death for Germany, but the

sobriety.''

VIVIAN MARTIN
A'hn Innocent Adventures
CQuurssgns Nss1a

Beginning today, and every day
thereafter, with the exception Of Fri
days and Saturdays, the Crescent
theatre will present two big feature
photoplays daily.
Vivian Martin appears today and
tomorrow in her latest play, AN In
nocent Adventures" which tells the
story of an unsophisticated girl who
has been brought up to tell a
lie nor commit a wrong. The picture
shows how the innocence OF a little
girl can sometimes become a great
and powerful force for good and
cause the regeneration of a man. In
this instance the man was q mere
boy who had once been a thief but
who now is trying to live up to the
higher ideals of life, honesty, truth
and faithfulness. A queer turn Of
circumstances causes h boy to think
the girl q thief, and thus deprived of
this inspiration, which has kept him
from joining his pals, he now goes
back to the old game" How he dis
covers that the girls character is
stainless and again starts on the
straight road with a firmer step than
aver is brought about in a highly in
teresting and entertaining plot.
The other production that COM
| prises the program for today and to-
morrow Is Golden Rule Kate" star
ring that stately actress, Louise
| Glaum. AS It's name implies, this is
q stirring tale of the barren west,
and tells of the owner of a dance hail
who also rules the town. Her word
is law. A minister arrives In the viii
lage and tries to clean up the town,
starting with the dance hall. But he
finds he must battle against stern ad-
versities. However, his fine manners
and wonderful teachings finally win
over all the inhabitants, including the
woman ruler" and a new life begins
for all.

be seen at the Majestic Theatre, have
abundant opportunities for their fun
making propensities in this years We
hicle which is entitled From Here to
Shanghai" Finney is cast as a quaint
Irishman and OFT as al eccentric pro-
fessor who is looking for a publisher
to bring out q book he has written.
They become involved in a search on
the part of Secret Service men to To-
cate a plate which has been stolen
from China and on which is engraved

Sweeney and the professor become
greatly interested in the efforts to
stamp out the opium evil and their
participation in the search finally
takes them to China, where they land
from an aeroplane in a Chinese grave
yard and narrowly escape with their
lives. 1t can readily be seen from
this brief outline of the story that the
comedy situations are unusually prom

ance, that Mr.. Finney and Mr.. OFT
both succeed in furnishing all the

With all my heart l believe in the
Joy OF living; but those who achieve
1t do not seek 1t as an end in itself,
but as a seized and priced incident
of hard work well done and of risk
and danger never wantonly courted,
but never shirked when duty com
nands that they be faced. And those
who have earned Joy, but are re.
warded only with sorrow, must learn

the comfort that springs from the
knowledge taught in times of iron
that the law OF worthy living is moi
fulfilled by pleasure, but by service

Somebody's Sweetheart
Coming to Majestic Tomorrow
"somebody's sweetheartv

Once again, as reports have it, Ar
thur Hammerstein delved into the
theatrical grab-bag and picked a prize
in the form of Somebody's Sweet
heart" which as a musical play, ran so
long in New York the players grew
tired of Broadway. Needless to add,
this production is coming here, open
ing at the Majestic Theatre tomorrow.
While the action of this piece takes
the audience to Spain the show is not
to be COMPOUNDED with that achaic
form of comic opera now at rest in
the storehouse, that based its appeal
chiefly upon the locale that allowed
for the presentation of colorful and
bizarre costumes. somebody's Sweet
heart" is as different as Oshkosh from
Broadway, to draw up a rough COM
parison.
Somebody's Sweetheart is a fast
moving musical comedy OF the latest
1920 model, With its breezy plot, It's
speciality interpretations, and its tune-I
full song numbers, there is not one,
dun moment in this contribution.

The ~rhinoceros, Notwithstanding its
unwieldy shape and short legs, is one
of the most agile of beasts. A horse
mar can scarcely manage to overtake
1t, and in strength it is perhaps IN
surpassed by any animal In the forest.
In a single combat no animal but the
elephant can stand up against 1t. To
kill a rhinoceros a rifle ball must
