LAND IF THE FREE'
 TELLsA GREAT STORY

For three days, beginning today, the Hip is offering a most wonderful op- portunity to follow, first hand, the bril- liant life of the most brilliant American general. "The Land of the Free" is the title of the picture, and the man whose life 1t portrays is General John J. Pershing, the supreme hero of the American forces in France.
 This is the first time this mans wonderful life of achievement has been brought to the attention of the public through the medium of the screen. and it will doubtless prove a most enjoy able engagement.
 Pershings indomitable will his wonderful tenacity of purpose-Ais re- fusal to be sidetracked whenever his mind had been made up that a cer- tain course was the proper one, these characteristics of this great American have been the case of comment by all those who speak of this genius But how many are familiar with the earlier life of this wonderful man? How. many know the vicissitudes this man went through? How many know the events which woulded his life into that purposeful and strong Pershing we know of now? These are the points which this Fox super picture takes up and discusses. The story of the life of this wonderful man begins with his grandparents, French people who came to America because they were unable to stand German tyranny in Alsace. Then we find his father and mother, pioneers in the wilderness of the west of those days forging their way to hope and promise. Pershing was born at LaClede, Missouri. Then came the early struggle for an educa- ton for John J. Pershing-a struggle against the most overwhelming odds, but here was the beginning of the making of that life of will power and achievement for the boy not only re- ceived his education, but he put his knowledge to use in supplying the needs of his impoverished parents Then came the examination at West | Point, and his winning by one point over his nearest competitor. Then his | fights with the Indians in the south west, his service in the war with the | Spaniards in Cuba, next his Philippine record when he hunted the Moros, sub- dued them and started them on the road to civilization and enlightenment
 Then his appointment as military at- tache to the American embassy at
 Japan; then his marriage Then we
 are brought face to face with the ter rible tragedy of his .life-the greatest
 personal sorrow that could come to a
 human being. Then his being chosen as the leader of the American forces
 in France and his brilliant success al the head of the greatest American
 army assembled. It is a brilliant pie tI1re Of brilliant pvaDtc and Ona bo.

BONDS IF HONOR.
 AT COLUMBIA TODAY

Sessue Hayakawa, renowned Jap anese actor who is ranked by critics as the premier actor of the screen, has big dramatic moments in his latest production, Bonds of Honor" the theme of which is built around the rev erence of the Japanese for the honor of the family name" It will be the feature attraction at the Columbia theater for four days starting today. The story throws an interesting light on the traditions of the Samurai, or ruling class fo Japan. In this intensely dramatic story, Hayakawa plays a dual role, that of twin brothers, Yama- shiro and Sadao, sons of Count Sa- kurai. who is high in the councils of
 state of the F1owery kingdom. Sadao
 has brought disgrace upon the family
 name by delieveang important plans to German intriguers, and has fled to Russia with the spies.
 Yamashiro offers to expiate his | brothers crime and places himself at
 the disposal of the high officials. How
 he clears the stain from the family
 honor and restores the plans of his country is told in a drama of power and emotional climaxes that hold to | the final denouement.
 1 The two entirely contrasting charac- l ters call upon all the resources of this great actor. who succeeds in present l ing distinctive characterization con l vincingly.

 Disadvantages in being a cynic are great; one hardly ever gets rich.
 In looking about for a reason why the day ought to be happy, remember, perhaps, that you have no appointment with the dentist.
 In considering the idea of professor that courtship ought to be taught in college, it may occur that there ought really to be a set of guide rules.
 People and parties whose ideas are utterly refuted in time never seem to be adequately ashamed of themselves. Isn't it queer that those who are rich never endeavor to enjoy their riches as you think you would if you had them No man remembers that he behaved at all like the men in the novels when he proposed.

 Two theories were offered. One was that a spark from the rotary motors set the gas afire The other was that the balloon was overcbarged and the suns rays caused it to expand and burst, the fire following the contact of the gas with the sparks in the motors.
 It was intended to charge the bag with a pure mixture of hydrogen gas which is not inflammable.

Many auto mobiles and trucks were stopped on the road and robbed. they added, and the bandits had terrorized that section of the state.
 The Americans also brought the first news of the accidental bombing oi Gen Pablo Quiroga's federal infantry by the government airpianes scouting for Villa bands. The federals were marching overland from Jiminez to Parral, the Americans said when they were sighted by the airplanes and bombs dropped among the infantry men, No estimates of the casualties were known by the Americans.

NEW YORK, July 21.-With no sign in sight of a settlement of the marine workers strike the sItua- ton became more acute today when the marine engineers defi- nitely broke off negotiations with the United States shipping board and the American Steamship asso- citation. They aligned themselves with the firemen, oilers, cooks, wa ter tenders and others who have been on strike for more than two weeks and both sides reiterated their determination not to yield.
 The possibility of an extension ot the strike to involve the railroads appeared today when the firemen, oilers and tenders on two tugs of the New York, Ontario and West ern railroad walked out.
 Strike leaders began today the organization into locals of the ne-' eroes here and at Noifolk, Va, Chinese, Spanish and Portueese branches already having been formed
 The American Steamship asso- citation decided late today to have no further negotiations with the strikers and to make no more con sessions.

MOUNT CLEMENS, July 21.-What with argument of counsel which re- suited in a ruling by Judge Tucker cutting off debate for and against ob- jections and the reading of a deposi- tion by John Reed, magazine writer. Henry Ford escaped with only one hour on the witness stand today.
 The witness who is suing the Chi cago Daily Tribune for $1,o00.000 on a charge of libel, developed nothing in the way of views or ideas differing from those expressed on the stand last week
 The elimination of argument over objections was adopted as a means of speeding up the trial. the record of which now runs close to 1,500, 900 words
 In his preliminary questions Elliott G. Stevenson, counsel for the Tribune, said the witness had defined an anar- chist as one who throws bombs, or seeks to overthrow government and endeavored to get Mir Ford to admit the situation along the Mexican border i in 1915, when he opposed mobilization of the national guard, was an anarchy In this the lawyer did not succeed.
 Pressed to admit that his advertise ments had called advocates of pre- aredness murderers, the witness took refuge in stating, as often before, that his peace publicity man, Theodore de l Lavinge wrote that,
