Mary Pickford At the Hin.

For two days, Americas Sweetheart Mary Pickford-comes to the Hip to present one of the greatest of her suc- cesses "Rags'-Edith Barnard Delano's great story which in its picture form offers Mary Pickford a wonderful op- portunity for presenting a powerful and absorbing drama. There are touches of humor which are so spon- taneous as to be highly delightful and really amusing, and then, with the skill of the most popular girl in Ameri- ca, Mary Pickford in the next instant checks the laugh. with a period of as convincing acting as it is possible for a star to register. The sacrifices the renunciations, the dramatic situations, the tenderness. the stirring heart ap- peal, and the naturalness of the char acterization, all go to make Rags a real Mary Picllford classic. Mary Pick ford, as Rags" is a living, breathing living little girl, very real in her de- mands for recognition, and very pro- nounced in her own way of reaching happiness, the climax coming with the triumph of good over evil, bring the charming story to a, delightful close. On the same program, the Hip will screen "Frisky Lions and Wicked | Husbands" another of the famous Uni- versal animal comedies.

discussion on ways and means fol combating the high cost of living.
 The attorney general says two com plaints reached his office yesterday about the practice of some grocers of requiring sugar purchasers to pur- chase one dollars worth of other kinds of merchandise for every two pounds of sugar. Another line of complaint is that some grocers are selling sugai at the rate of one and a half pounds for 25 cents.
 Concerning the alleged requirement for one dollars worth of merchandise for every two pounds of sugar, the attorney general says there may be q good and sufficient reason therefor. Ii the sugar supply is as low as some dealers claim 1t is, he says, there may be agents abroad who are buying up the retail stocks by making frequent small purchases all over the city, in which case the grocers could be ex- pected to protect their regular cus- toners.
 Concerning the allegations of over charging, there is no definite infor7na- tion, it is stated. A leading whole saler, it was ascertained, is selling
 sugar in 100-pound lots for s11.20, with the sack included. A leading re- ! taller told the attorney general he was selling sugar for 1215 cents, making gross profit of only 1.3 cents. from which all overhead costs must be de- ducted.
 | The attroney general says that all complaints are receiving the fullest in- vestigation by the United States of ficials with whom his department is CO., operating.

CATHOLIC WOMAN'S
 CLUBHOUSE PLANNED
 BY CHURCH SOCIETY

The building of Catholic Wcman's clubhouse is the latest movement taat is being launched by leading women of the denomination who are interested in securing a building where their church activities can be held
 This was the announcement made yesterday by Miss Anna Vosskuhler president of St. Mary's Altar socie.y who declares there is decided neeo for such a clubhouse.
 We have no intention of building at once," said Miss Vosskuhler. "Our plan at present is to interest the peo- pie in the movement when we have suf- ficient funds to warrant the undertak. ing, we will discuss the location of the clubhouse and its plans.
 At present we have no suitable place in which to hold our social meetings, our bazaars or any of our activities in fact. While we recognize the need, we do not think the time has come to build, we do think now is the time to prepare for the building"

 "Cry of the Weak" at the Lamara
 The Cry of the Weak" which plays the Lamara for today and tomorrow, is distinctly a melodrama, dealing with modern methods and modern life. It is story based on criminology, an open discussion of the reason for and the remedy for crime. Taking for it's char acters Q sister, who, reared with her brother in the tenement distict of the underworld, rose above her environ ment, and became the wife of a suc- cessful young district attorney. Her brother, on the contrary, proved in- ferior to the effort to better himself, and remained at the bottom of the lad der. The district attorney is very set in his way, very pronounced in his judgment that once a criminal always criminal, and many and often are the arguments in which he and the old criminal judge, his best friend, engage. The test comes when the judge is wounded by an unseen man. It is highly interesting drama, telling a most absorbing story. and presented by a remarkably competent cast.
 On the same program there will be shown the Burton Holmes and "Dyna- mite," western drama.
 "The Right To Happiness."-Strand.
 Triumphantlv forging ahead on it's remarkable run 'The Right to Happi- ness," Allen Holubar's latest creation. starring Dorothy Phillips, enters the third day of it's engagement at the Strand, where the super feature of the age has established house record for attendance which will more tran likely stand for some time to come.
 Dorothy Phillips, in the dual DOT trayal of Sonia, the girl who had noth- ing and gave everything, and her sis ter Vivian, the girl who had every thing and gave nothing, offers without question the greatest demonstration of dual character emotional work ever done for the camera. Widely different in theme, widely different in purpose, widely different in environment, the lives of these two girls presents pie ture, unique for it's originality, but compelling in it's extreme human in- l tensity.
 ''The Right to Happiness is being offered by the Strand with the full musical setting of the score which &C., companies the picture and which is ad- mirably rendered by the Strand Sym- phony orchestra with Eugene Redewill conducting.

''The New Moon." Norma Tal- madge's biggest offering of the year. which is to be repeated at the Colum- bia theater again today and Saturday, is tense and thrilling drama of Rus- sian home life as it exists today.

The League of Nations an effective and permanent

There are in the United States Al 100000 church
members, $4,000 church buildings. Let us not waste
these tremendous forces in the conflicting efforts OF

Let us rather emphasize the one thing which is
common to all denominatons-brotherh Let
us unite the denominations in League of Churc hes,
not for the spread of particular doctrines, in which
everyone must have liberty of belief, but for inspired

Church unity of this sort is longer an idle
question. 1t is the only means of safeguarding the

has become a world problem. Without it, in
time of great need, they are individually SO made
