PRISCILLA DEAN
 AT FOX'S THEATER

Unusual interest attaches itself to the FOX program for the first half ot this week, for in addition to the splendid picture and vaudeville show Will appear one of New Britain's fla Norlte actors, Desmond Gallagher, of the Cormican Players. Mr. Gallagher will be seen in Live Wires" a com edy sketch of the rapid-f fire variety. Three other acts are included on the bill.
 Admirers of Priscilla Dean have q special treat in store for them, for this popular star opened yesterday in her latest mystery crook drama
 Pretty SmOOth.' It's merit may be partially judged when it is mentioned that Bayard Veiller, the famous stage playwright, author of Within the Law and The Thirteenth Chair" is the author of it. All those clements or mystery and suspense which he manages to inject in his stage work are present in this picture with the result that Pretty Smooth" estab- hshes new record for crook stories.

Progress is being made in connec-
ton with grain loading in Kansas,

Colorado, where conditions have
necessitated extra attention because
the third of November indicate that
1T more cars of grain and grain
products were loaded in that week in
the territory mentioned than the
average for the week ended October
%, there having been a steady in
crease in the loading of grain each
day since that time. This increase is
divided, Kansas eventy-one cars,
Nebraska twenty-seven cars, Okla
hOma twenty-five cars and Texas
eleven cars, with just enough de-
crease in other states to make the net
gain 1877 cars. In the five states
mentioned, the amount of grain on
the ground decreased $50, 200 BUSH
els between October 20 and Novem-
Der 3. Arrangements have been made
as result of special attention paid
to this situation whereby 1876 cars
suitable for garin loading, will be
turned over to the railroads at
Kansas City within twenty-four
hours to be sent out for grain load
ing, this performance to be continued
tomorrow and suitable grain box cars
to be delivered thereafter whenever
available. This process does not
have any effect on the loading at
Kansas City. In addition to the ef-
forts being put forward on the Santa
Fe railroad, the Rock Island and

THE BACKING OF MONEY

A so-called philosopher once said
IF the rich do not spend the poor die
of hunger"
This fallacy was back OF conditions
that brought on the French Revolu-
ton. Saving is spending, but 1t is for
the future rather than for the present.
1t causes the production of permanent
goods rather than the mere satisfaction
of transient and temporary pleasures.
The trouble is that people confuse
money with what is back of it. They
see that spending increases trade, but
fail to see that investing money in
cSeases trade just as much. Perhaps
YOU never stopped to realize that every
time you deposit a dollar in bank or
Invest 1t in some legitimate enterprise
you not only help some to get and keep
/, a job, but a useful job. Every dollar
you bank or invest provides work for,
somebody.
1t is something's said in favor of one
of the larger excuses jewelry-that
diamonds are good investment. That
Is, people think that they will be able
to sell their jewels If they cannot az
ford to keep them. But aside from the
fact that don't believe that anyone
ever sold ring, or pin, or expensive
watch for as much as he or she paid
for it, tha@e is The further fact that
money Invested in jewelry earns no in
terest.
Extravaganza brings in no return.
Money saved Is not only kept, but it
continues to work for its owner. The

is given up for all time. 1t is de.
