@NIICKEY."

ulOh1Ae
A picture never to be forgotten is the
kind of a picture that Mickey Is. Ine
premier presentation of Mack Sen
nett's world famous play will be at the
Grand Central Theatre.
mickey" is a combination of everything
that pleases the theatre patron, pathos,
humor, tense dramatic action, thrills, and
here and there bit of slapstick farce for
relief And all is so blended that 1t runs
smoothly and upholds the spectators In
terest to the last. The film is making
history and breaking the records of all
theatres in every city in which 1t has
played and audiences and critics the world
over are proclaiming 1t the last word In
comedy pictures. Mabel Normand as the
star has never been seen to better advan-
tage, while Mack Sennett, the director has
shown his skill in doing the hardest thing
In the matchmaking people laugh. After
seeing Mickey" they do it spontaneously,
when the situation that caused 1t is over
the audience notes that 1t was realistic and
not forced. Every human emotion, every
element of life, is shown and Mabel por-
trays them with genuine artistry and YER
satility. In passing, mickey" is full OF
fun and frolic, it sparkles with humor and
bubbles over with laughter. Those who
miss Mickey will do so at the risk Of
missing one Of the finest and cleanest
comedies that the screen has seen In
many months. The Dramatic Mirror in a
recent criticism says in part: Mickey
is one of those rare comedies that meets
all the requirements in the way of pleasing
the most critical of audiences" And from
where the writer sits the Dramatic Mir
ror is right
Manager Harris, after months Of ne
gotiation with the owners Of this picture,
has finally succeeded in obtaining this ex-
traordinary attraction for the patrons Of
the Grand Central Theatre at the small
admission fee of Is cents and 25 cents,
war tax included. Absolutely the first time
this picture was ever shown at such a
small admission fee.

CAP AND GOWN
NOT NECESSARY
Justice Preston Of Iowa Supreme
Court, Holds That This CARP
is Not Needed In Order
to Secure Diploma.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Oct. Is
Wearing of caps and gowns by high
school graduates is not necessary IN
obtaining diploma.
This was decided by Justice Pres
ton of the Iowa supreme court, in the
case of Beth Valentine versus the
school district Of Casey, Iowa.
A diploma was refused because the
girl failed to wear cap and gown.
"A little common sense would have
avoided litigation" Justice Preston
writes in his opinion.
"a public ceremonial is not grad
uation and not what entities one TO
a diploma. The completion of a pre-
scribed course of study entities one
to diploma.
"The board of Casey exceeded its
power in Withholding the diploma"
The lower court held that the girl
should have worn the cap and gown
and Justice Preston's decision re.
verses the lower court.
