MJust a Wifey at Columbia

A question of ethics with in tensely modern slant is given a clever treatment in the National Picture Theaters, Inc, first big release, Just a Wife, which opened a three-day stay at the Columbia theater yester- day. Three of the screens best-known players are being co-starred in the of fering,N they being Kathlyn Williams, Roy Stewart and Beatrice Joy.
 Who has the real right to a mans regard and affectiOn-the woman who has been the power behind the throne" of his life, helping him to successor thewoman who married him for money and then discovered that she loved him?
 Shall woman who has sacrificed her brain power, her youth and her good name for a man step aside in favor of girl who takes his name legally, enjoys his wealth and gives nothing save a belated affectiono Which type of woman does a man truly care for-the intellectual, self-reliant kind who can help him build a for tune, or the sweet, domestic woman who can surround him with beauty, make him comfortable and demand protection?
 These are a few of the phases of an unusual situation which exists in the brilliant drama, Just a Wife,"

ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENTS l RIVERSIDE PARK TO
 BE OPENED SATURDAY

Summer brings Riverside Park and Riverside Park brings joy to Phoeni- cians.. This explains the question that is now heard so often: When does Riverside open?" The announcement of the bathing contest met with lots of enthusiasm with the fair sex, and numerous inquiries are being received at the office of the Strand.
 The management announces that 1t is imperative that all the girls desir- ing to compete for the prizes should so signify their intention by calling the Strand, either by phone or in person, and registering their name and ad- dress. There is no entry fee-no strings on the offer-simply a bona fide contest wherein there is a chance for. every entrant to compete for the four tempting prizes. The first prize is $50 in cash, the second $25, the third $15, and the fourth $10. As before the only condition govern ing the contest is that the suits be made in Phoenix, and this is to elim- mate the possibility of the winning suit being a bought one imported from the coast''-as was the case last year.
 Full particulars or any information desired may be had by calling the Strand.

 You had almost forgotten Tn the Good Old Summertime" hadn't you, un- til you heard it at the American the other night? Then, somehow, those wonderful rhythm promoters, the mem bers of the American orchestra made you remember all of it's old popularity and along with the appeal that it for merly had, they had added that new quality of subtle jazz which made it's time and tune exactly fitted to the latest dancing.

Big Mack Sennett Comedy Coming
 The days of Jack Dalton" and "Nel- lie, the Cloak Model, are outdone to the nth degree by the way that Mack Sennett kids the old type of "meller- drammer' in his latest five-reel com edy, "Down on the Farm, released through United Artists, which comes to the Columbia theater for three day stay starting Sunday.
 The plot is typically Sennett with that inimitable twinge of melodrama but with a treatment that gives it a de- lightfully hilarious variety that thrills and chills. There are moods in it that make one shout, others that with. it's unique satire prompts chuckling of real mirth, while the dramatic climaxes bring it to such heights that it grips as if it was the type Of most strenuous drama.
 Down on the Farm is called the most sensational comedy of the sea- son because of it's punch" and the number of ingredients of which it is concocted, including travesty, comedy, melodrama and delightful, hilarious satire.

Lam ara

Mary MacLaren comes to the La mara today for 2 two days engagement in Rouge and Riches."
 A drama of the theater, and that mysterious somewhere known to the public as "back stage" this offering holds an added interest in it's very theme. It tells the story of Becky But Ter. of an old Virginia family, who, forced through poverty to seek em- ployment, drifts to the stage There she immediately sets about to win for herself a multi millionaire and ease and comfort. But Cupid is a funny little fellow. and works often in the most unreasonable manner. That's why Becky found herself in love with Rushmore, her dancing partner, poor but sincere. Resisting the call of her heart, the shallow girl still seeks for her .'prince charming" and it is only after she has landed one, and has gone through a series of the most astound- ing adventures that she realizes that true love seeks not riches but hearts s. desire.
 For the added attractions, the La mara offers the Phoenix made photo play, .'Dad's Girl" featuring Miss Wilma Steck. and When the Cougar Calls, western drama

also know that they will have to settle
these same problems themselves. They
will have to ratify the treaty, which

NEW LEAGUE POSSIBLE
British Ambassador Not Opposed ID
Association Of Nations.

Chicago, Nov. 7-If America do
clines to 60 into the present League
of Nations. and the national election
results appeared to make it plain that
the United States does not favor this
league, it will not be difficult to
create new league or revamp the
old one to meet the demands Of
America. This is the opinion Of Sir
Auckland Geddes, British ambassa-
dor, who arrived here today from St.
Paul, where he had addressed the Min
nesota Educational Association. He is
on his way to Cincinnati to speak
before a medical convention next Mon
day.
His views on the league were in an
swer to a question:
DO you believe that President-elect
Harding's plan for an association of
nations rather than the present League
of Nations is among the possibilities
providing America holds out on the
present arragement4"
Eyes, he replied, "such q thing is
possible. The League of Nations is not
dead. On the contrary, 1t is alive and
functioning."

but in vain, for statement on the

eral peniteniary at Atlanta for vio-

The position taken by the president,
tccording to those who profess to
know his views, is that executive
clemency in such a case would set a
bad precedent and would encourage
others to oppose the government in the
event of aother war.
A pardon for Debs and others con-
victed of violating the espionage act

ARE AFTER THE aPLUMs"
Texarkana Republicans Specializing al
to Federal Jobs.

Texarkana, Nov 6.-The smoke of
battle had scarcely lifted from Tues
days election when speculation be-
gan as to the probable distribution of
pie" among the Republicans in this
part of the country. AS has been Gus
tomary on similar occasions in the
past, the Texarkana postmastership is
the first item taken up. There are
at least two men-one from the Ark
ansas side and the other on the Texas
side OF tOwn-whO will make siren
uous efforts to land this plum. The
Arkansas man is E. E. Hudspeth, pre-
sent United States commissioner and
deputy clerk of the federal count;
the other is Thomas Daley. chairman
of the Republican Committee of Bowie
county, Texas. It is said that each
of these will have the full strength of
the respective State Committees behind
him.
A third possible aspirant for te POI
sition is woman, Mrs. s. s. Pearson.
She is an Indiana woman and a
member of we'll known Republican
family of that state. She voted for
Harding. while her husband, an ex-
Confederate soldier, voted for Cox
and the Democratic ticket. Mrs Pear
son has lived in Texarkana for about
20 years.
