PALACE AIRDOME SATURDAY,

An attraction that positively con-
tradicts the statement so often used
"there is nothing new under the sun"
will be shown at the Palace theatre
on Saturday when World pictures will
present ''The Ghost of Slumber Noun
tain" This is one-rele super fea-
ture that never in the history of the
motion picture has there been seen
tts equal for originality and novelty.
If it were possible to look back a mil
lion years one would be able to see
the counterpart of the interesting
subject matter of this extraordinary
one-reel photo entertainment. The
gigantic animals that lived at that
time have been re-created and are
shown as thew lived, as they foraged
for food and fought If the famous
water hole picture shown in Paul
Rainey's African hunt attracted world
wide attention then the thrilling
fights between the monsters who
lived when history was but in the be-
ginning must exact a higher toll of
public attention. Never in the life
of man has there been the equal of
this wonderful exposition of animal
life as it existed in prehistoric times
as it is shown in "The Ghost of
Slumer Mountain" The most noted
archaeogists of America vouch for
truthfulness of the scenes and the
genius of Herbert Dawley, who has
given us this wonderful picture, is
established for all time to come.

EXPERTS HANDLE
DEPARTMENTS Of
BAT Terry SHOP

In TIE Battery Department of the
Auto Electric and Battery Shop,
Walter Robertson is doing his utmost
to develop a model shop, and at the
present time is installing a small lab
ratorv that will make it possible for
him to determine exactly what caused
a battery to fail. He says that many
a battery has gone prematurely to
the scrap pile simply because it
wouldn't take charge.
This is ofttimes due to trace of
foreign substances, such as nitric
acid, hydrochloric acid, iron, copper
or mercury.
With his new equipment, Mr.. Rob-
ertson will be able to detect these
dangerous things in time to save
his customers expensive repairs and
the necessity of buying a new battery
before they have received propr serv-
ice from their old one.
When a battery is beyond repair,
Mr.. Robertson is ready to show the
Philadelphia Diamond Grid Battery,
which is guaranteed to give perfect
service for at least eighteen months.
Mr.. Ferguson and Mr.. Clem are
Justly proud of their organization and
they guarantee better service and a
higher grade of work than it has hith-
erto been possible to secure in the
Valley. They are living closer than
ever to their motto:
''If it's electrical, we have it."

Special Committee
To Continue Probe
OF High Prices Here

Lincoln, Nov. 8--(SpcciaD-
the meeting Friday OF the legislative
committee appointed to look into
the matter of calling . special ses-
sion of the legislature to deal with
punishment of profteers did not de-
velop sufficient interest on the part
of the public to warrant call being
made, the committee is not going to
discontinue its efforts. Members
say they have just started in.
Remarks of some of the speakers
that 1--WE couldn't do anything" does
not meet with the idea of the men,
bers of the committee. In fact, it
rather spurs them on to redoubled
efforts. They do not believe that,
knowing that an evil exists, the peo-
pie of the state should throw up
their hands and let it continue to
exist. The committee has been find
ing out some things in the past few
days and it believes that something
will be done before snow flies.
Members are looking forward
with a great deal of interest to the
meeting called by Governor Nc
Kelvie for November Is. They ex-
pect to get some ideas from that
meeting which will help materially
in discovering some way to meet
the situation and solve it in way
that will get results.
