This photoplay, which is a Para
mount-Artcraft special picture, has
been produced on a lavish scale and
it is the first produced by Mr. Tour
neur as an independent producer. 1t
was acquired by the famous Players
Lasky corporation Immediately after
its successful presentation in New
York in September, 1918.
The story of the picture deals with
the fortunes of an impoverished Brit
ish nobleman who is a thorough
sportsman and who wins love and
wealth against almost insuperable
odds The scenes of the photoplay
include views of the National Sport
ing Club of London, Epson Downs on
derby day and many others, all of
which add to the suspensive interest
of most captivating story.
The various roles are interpreted
by well known screen players. 1t is

ALL EYES ON MOSCOW.

A large delegation from Deary anc
Bovill came to Moscow yesterday for
the express purpose of urging that
the bond election tomorrow in Mos
COW highway district be carried for
the bonds. Those towns want better
connection with Moscow and the dele
gates say the whole country is watch
ing Moscow and if the bonds in this
district carry tomorrow every other
district (and there are eight in the
county, will vote bonds and build
better roads. But if Moscow, the
county seat and largest town, with
the most to gain, fails, they fear it
will be the death knell to better roads
in the county.
Moscow cannot afford to set bad
example for the remainder of the
county. We asked $675,O0O from the
state for the University of Idaho and
we got it. The state asks us to do
our share in improving roads. The
federal government gave the univer-
sity about 100000 and it now asks
us to build better roads and offers |
to furnish half the money. Will we |
be "slackers" when asked to do our
duty? We think not

than the road will cost him, by put

building of better roads will benefit
Moscow enormously, it will help the
country district more. The bonds
should carry tomorrow by an over
whelming majority.

TOMORROW'S IMPORTANT
ri ECTTON

The election of Tuesday was of no
great Importance to the people of
Moscow, because there was no issue
involved. Two of the best men in
the city were running for mayor and
some of our very best citizens were
candidates for councilmen. There was
no chance for the city to lose by the
election of any of the men who were
candidates on either of the tickets.
But tomorrow it will be different.
There is real, live issue, of vast
Importance to the people of Moscow
and surrounding country, the ques-
ton of voting bonds for building bet
ter roads in the immediate vicinity
of Moscow, Viola and Joel.
If the bonds carry there will be
three quarters of million dollars
at the disposal of the people of this
district for road building. Half of
this vast sum will come as a gift
1rom the federal government. We
have been paying taxes, revenue, in
come tax, stamp taxes and other
taxes to the government and now we
will have an opportunity to get some
of our money back. The government
offers to put up as much money as
the state or district to improve high
ways used for carrying the mails, and
every highway it is proposed to i'm
prove in this district is used by rural
mail carriers.
The question that each voter must
ask himself or herself is "can we af-
ford to throw away or refuse to ac-
cept gift of $375,O00 from the gov
eminent to improve our roads ?"
If some man or firm were to offer
to spend three quarters of million
dollars for manufacturing or other
industry in Moscow, and ask for a
bonus of $25O,000 from the citizens
to secure it, that bonus would be |
forthcoming We would not overlook
the opportunity to have that much
money spent in our neighborhood.
Yet no industry would be. Of greater
help to the town and surrounding
country than the spending of this
vast sum for better roads.
The man with a town lot or sew
eral lots or an acre or a few acres
at the edge of town, may think this
does not concern him, but he is mis-
taken. Part of this money will be
used to connect the county road with
the paved streets of Moscow and the
man living on the street at the out
skirts of town, may be saved heavy
,ity paving bill by having the country :
highway improved to connect with the
paved streets in town.
But the farmer is the one who will
ret the greatest good from the i'm
of the roads. He will
ave better roads over which to haul
is produce to town, roads that can
e used every day of the year, and
he value of his land will be enhanced.
, is the plan to give the work to q
armers as much as possible and q
ANY farmers, with several teams, q
i'll have a chance to earn much more (

SLOWNESS IN DEVELOPMENT OF
AIRPLANE FOR CONNER.
CIAJ, Use

With the transatlantic aerial route
already mapped out and being traversed,
it is high time that some of the short
continental routes in the United States
were getting into actual operation. We
are losing some of the rate Of progress
which airplane flying maintained during
the days of actual warfare and we are
setting ourselves back in line of COM
mercial activity which is bound to be
utilized sooner or later Aside from
some aerial mail routes and experiment
tai spins at SO much per minute there Is
little development of the airplane as a
means of transportation for the public
in the United States. Those several
thousand machines which the United
States government has on its hands
should not be allowed to go into state
of collapse because the American people
are not awake to their possibilities.
Probably those several thousand planes
of the government could never be util.
lied for commercial purposes to any adj
vantage but they could be used for the
development of the more common use of
the airplanc among the people as a
whole.
