Great Feature at the
Opera House Tomorrow

The many patrons of the Opera
House were sorely disappointed
last Griday night of the non-arriva1
of that celebrated masterpiece by
Cecil B. DeMilles. Don't Change
Your Husband" This was due to
some error on the part of shipping
clerk Mr.. Loeb has been after the
house and has gotten an assurance
that the picture would be here for
tomorrow night. 1t is reputed to be
one of the finest pictures made this
year, and Manager Loeb wants you
to see it.
Mr.. DeMille has provided practi-
cally the same cast that appeared in
"Old Wives for New" for his latest
production. Elliot Dexter has the
leading role, with Gloria Swanson
playing opposite to him, while the
other parts are in the capable hands
of Theodore Roberts, Sylvia Ashton,
Lew Cody, Julia Faye and James
Neill.

Protect Tree Wounds
with Good Mixtures

"The best kind of paint to apply
to wounds on trees" says B. Szymo-
MAX, associate horticulturist, Exten-
sion Division, Louisiana State Uni
versity, "is one that disinfects the
wounds and furnishes complete pro-
lection to the sap wood while the
wound is healing and causes least
injury to the tissues.
"Such mixture can be made of the
following ingredients: one-third part
creasote and two-thirds part coal tar.
In applying it care must be taken not
to drench the sap wood too heavily
The brush should be saturated just
enough to apply this mixture"

envy existing and joint programs be-
ing carried out. With a unity of pur-
pose and the work definitely outlined,
the goal is assured.

ing chairman, made timely remarks
lboosting the organization. Others
