eONCE TO EVERY WOMAN
TO BE SEEN HERE

American theatre goers who revel-
led in the dramatic wealth of THE
Heart of Humanity and capitulated
to the irresistible qualities of 1.-THE
Right to Happiness" are doubtless Of
the opinion that in these two photo
dramas, Dorothy Phillips and Allen
Holubar, star and director, have al
ready reached the heights of screen
perfection. But the public is asked
to reserve it's final verdict until it
has had view of "Once to Every
Woman" the newest super-produc-
ton, coming to the Gem theatre on
Saturday, November 10th.
The popular appeal of "Once to
Every Woman" is heightened be-
cause it deals with everyday peo-
pie and treats of a theme that is as
old as humanity. Mother love is its
keynote and 1t shows the utter van
ity of worldly ambition when not
founded on human affection.

Country Children

Some folks argue that city
children are brighter than those
from the country. They argue
that the city youngsters have thei1
wits sharpened by constant con-
tact with others.
City children do acquire from
the life of the streets in which
they have to play, a certain saucy
quickness. They learn sang first
and can talk back faster to older
people.
Still what the world wants is
doers rather than takers. If the
bicycle breaks down, the country
boy will quite likely be able to
make it run himself. He has con
stantly been thrown in that way
on his own resources. Meanwhile
the smart city kid will be taking
it to the repair shop and having
the bill sent to Dad.

RIPE IDEAS
From the Man In the
Hole in the Ground

Editor Slftlngs:
The man who puts every dollar
he can save where he can lay hands
on it by and by is wise chap.
This is the time to sell, not buy
to cash in, not speculate.
One of the biggest financiers in
New York, when asked recently
what investment he considered
perfectly safe. said: There amt
no such animal"
Every once in a while someone
in high financial circles issues a
statement that a great era of pros
peri'y is at hand. Don't you be-
lieve it. That kind of talk is a
hoax-and a cruel hoax when il
leads people to speculate who can't
afford to lose.
There isn't a well.informed man
in financial circles who does not
know that period Of hard times
is ahead of the whole country
except for the gold and silver
miner-and that the world is
trembling on the brink OF tre-
mendous financial smashup every
minute.
This fear of world wide panic
is at the bottom of action of the
Supreme Council of the Allied
Powers, which has been tearing
the Treaty of Versailles to pieces
with all the haste official dignity
would permit.
The net results of the secret
consultations at London are these.
some of which have been given to
the press and some of which you
will learn later when the cores
pondents of the big newspapers
and news agencies are permitted
to speak:
!. The reparations and indem-
mites imposed upon Germany by
the treaty are to be abandoned.
2. The Turks are to remain
rulers of Constantinople.
3. The Soviet Republic is to be
recognized.
A. The League of Nations is to
be relegated to the historical Junk.
pile.
5. The United States is to be
asked to cancel the debt of ten
thousand million dollars Europe
owes US.
6. The Hapsburg monarchy
will be restored in Hungary. and
Austria will be encouraged to
unite again with Hungary instead
Of with Germany.
7. England, France and italy
will divide Persia, Mesopotamia,
Arabia, Syria and. Palestine
among themselves.
s. The Balkan States will lie
controlled, if it can be done. by
pressure from the four powers
England, France, Italy and Ger

predictions, because they will be

Don't spend it foolishly. Don't

Be a Credit to Your Town

Be credit to your town,
Help to build its fair renown:
Stoop to nothing that would shame
Either yours or its good name.
In whate'er you find to do
Have your city proud of you.
Write with conducts golden pen
That your town breeds gentle men
And no matter where you go
Something of its spirit show,
You may walk your way content
If its best you represent.
Serve it every way you can.
In your trials play the man:
Guard its honor as your own;
Keep its petty faults unknown;
Be kind and genial host,
Love your town but do not boast.
When you travel. east or west,
For your city live your best;
Prove by every act you do
That its citizens are true.
Let men learn to link yo.r name
With the town from whence you came
Cities grow not great by stone,
Or the wealth or land they own;
All the fame they rise to win.
Comes from men who dwell therein.
Human hearts shape all renown!
Be credit to your town.

Your Home Town Paper

By Tom Evans, Salt Lake City
If you're looking for the pleasures
That are really worth your while,
Something full of deepest interest
That produces smile on smile,
Makes you feel some reminiscent
As you turn the pages Ger,
Why it's just your home town paper
You received the day before
So you start at the beginning,
Where it says "The Siftings- News;
Then you look the picture over
OF the town where, if YOU choose,
You recaAea street and building
And the people that are there;
But some have changed their address
And it's now '-most everywhere. :"
You can reach them all by wireless
If you know just what mean
Start a thought across the country
And it fills the space between.
And there's that Indian maiden
She is such shameless thing
With her right foot in the water
OF our famous Radium Spring;
Quite true, it adds flavor
To the water gives a kick
And that's one of the reasons why
1t helps the dear old sick.
If ever she moves forward
Puts her left foot in there, too
o, boy, hope to goodness
There will be some ''parlai voo."
Now we read where Eastern capital
Is backing some big mine;
And Shakespeare gives party
Where the Irish fall in line.
And then some best known couple
Vi and marry-just like that.
We then consult your t'Mickie"
Just to find where we are at.
And Fifteen Years Ago This Week."
We like that column best;
1t seems to us something apart,
And different from the rest.
For there thesnames are mentioned
OF the people that we knew.
And easily we recognize
The pictures in Who's Who."
For George is quite some handsome,
And Jay would sure raise "cane"
Provided he was painting.
And it started in to rain.
And SO we finish reading
And in memory we go
Back SO to the town and people
We feel we used to know.
For Romance never visits
In the places where you are;
She always seems to linger
In the towns where once you were.
And sometimes in whisper
That old lady says to me,
"Roy, what's the use of going
When your where you want to be?'
Y ou listen when she's talking,
For she seems SO worldly wise;
She hesitates, then shimmies,
And she vamps you with her eyes.
So will you kindly tell me
One thing | wish to know
Why is she always where YOU were,
And never where YOU go?
Inclosed please find two dollars
Send the Siftings heIe to me:
Tom Evans, Salt Lake City,
And yours most respectfully.
