TONIGHT A YOUNG STAR, IRENE CASTLE, HAS
 AMERICA AT HER FEET.

It is only in the last few years that persons of extreme youth have been able to achieve the fame and fortune that formerly went only with years of experience. Irene Castle. the star of the Pathe play, 'The- Hill crest Mystery" which will be at the Orpheum theatre tonight is very young, but she is al very famous and a favorite of fortune. There are many girls in boardine schools who are her seniors, yet this lithesome charming and lightfooted slip of a girl has America at her feet. And even in Paris, that Paris that is SC discriminating and hard to please when it comes to the talent of the stage. she is name and personality 10 conjure with.
 "The Hillcrest Mystery" is an in tensely exciting photoplay dealing with timely topic. With Mrs. Gas tle in the cast are Ralph Kellard, Wyndham Standing and J. H. Gil mOur.

Photogra phically speaking, "The Price Mark,v' in which clever Doro- thy Dalton is appearing at the Coli scum theatre on Sunday is one of the supreme achievements of photo, play history.
 Effects that have hitherto been impossible of achievement in photo. graphy and scenes that rival in sheer beauty the grandeur of a masters painting, are seen in abundance throughout the film.

If you have ever seen the late Richard Mansfield in his dual role Of Dr. Jekyl and MT. Hyde. you will surely wish to see Mary Pickford in her double role. It is equally start ling. but lacks the gruesomeness ol the Mansfield portrayal. It will stand out as a wonderful achievement in screen art.
 Those of you who have seen Mary Pickford only as the beloved curly head" will be amazed at the art she shows in an entirely different role how different will be gatherd from the following incident:

There are some people that believe
the government can do nothing to
regulate the prices OF. foodstuffs, and
that the natural law of supply ana de-
mand is the only regulator. The
fluctuations Of the market prices d IL.
ing the past few days throw some
light on the subject. Just prior to
the recent public announcement of
the governments decision concerning
the price of wheat, there was con
lsiderable decentralization in the grain
and provision trade, the prices drop
ping decidedly for various articles
due to he possibility that the price
of wheat to consumers might be
sashed at once by the government as
/ radical measure against the high
cost OF living. But Immediately af
| ter the announcement, Tuesday. that
The government would maintain the
guaranteed price OF S2.26 per bushe
for wheat there was an upward jumI
of . IL cents per bushel for corn
and oats shot upward IA cents
lard 65 cents per hundred weight
pork $3.50 per barrel, and various
other commodities in similar man
ner, This circumstance proves con
cluslvely that tie government car
control the prices of grain and proyis
ions to consumers 1t can even eu
down the food prices to them while
continuing its guarantee to the farm
err of $226 per bushel for wheat, al
though it would lose money in Sc
doing. The government can stop tho
constant increase OF the cost of liy
ing. 1t ought to do SO. 1t ought Il
do so Immediately.

A Backward Tendency.

Before long this country will be re,
turning to the old regional basis of
selfsupport. In the old days. when
transportation in the modern sense
did not exist, the regional unit was
the town, and If che will read over the
lists of industries in each town in
Vermont hundred years ago, and
even less, one will find that each COM
munity had its own Touring mill, its
own iron manufactures, and so on
down the list Not much was brought
in from the outside and there was lit
tie real commerce. The railroads came
and changed all this. Transportation
charges we're small, relatively, and
each community began to deMrnc
upon others, producing that which il
could produce to the best advantage
and exchanging it for the natural pro-
ducts of other communities. However
if transportation charges continue to
increase there will be an increasing
growth of home production and ex-
change between widely separated
parts of the country will diminish. We
are already seeing it in some measure
in the way the farmers are raising an
increasing amount of their own grain.
1t would not have been profitable for
them to have done this in competition
with the West a few years ago, but
Western production will become les
SEEMING factor as railroad rates go up.
Of course there will never be a full
return to the old conditions and the
region of self-support will be much
larger than the township. But the
tendency is that way today and will

Not much Roadway is being made

whether such trail will ever ma

Just as responsible for the war as

be only fair TO try them too. 1t is
openly known that President Wilson

Now that the government has
awakened and started an offensive
against profteers, the public can sit
back and watch some of the war-hogs
take their medicine. There is another
kind of pest which was prominent
during the war, but one which the
government unfortunately cannot
punish, namely, the man who never
did anything himself to help out in
the struggle, but who was mighty
free with his advice and criticism of
those who did do something. Every
community had them and got heartily
sick OF them. They are pretty quiet
now, but even though they think they
won the war, nobody even paid much
attention to them when they champed
their bits.
